The Man Who Makes Mistake in Marriage

drudge TO supply her. with money! How
often do we see men mated with clods

What should a man do who finds out

that his wife's influence is degrading to
him. and that she win prevent him from
doing the worthy work in the world TO
which he had set his hand?
What would he do If he had made any
other such blunder in life? He would
stop short and try to rectify his mistake.

such matters better than we do now, and
we will prevent such tragedies by revers-

For in a more intelligent age we will
make II as hard and as expensive, and
require as much probation and investiga-

TO get a marriage license as we do now
TO get a divorce decree. and in That way
we will stop divorce by preventing hasty

born of unloving, antagonistic and en-
tirely mismated parents? Should such
a woman be entitled to be burden upon
the man for all OF his life, clogging his
every ambition, daliing his every aspira-
ton and preventing his fulfilling the real
meaning of eXistence?"
The question this man asks is the
riddle of the ages, only now we are try
ing to find some rational and helpful an
swer TO it, Instead Of sitting down before
it in meek and helpless submission as
our forefathers have done.
Those who are opposed to divorce an
swer this mans question In the negative.
They say that marriage is an indissolu-
BILE contract, and that no matter how
miserable a couple are in it, no matter
how much they drag each other down;
no matter what crime II is to bring
children into the world under such con-
ditions, nor how disastrous it is for chill
dren 20 be reared In a home of strife, the
marriage bond must not be broken.
Personally cannot accept this view OF
of the situation. l fully agree with those
who say, Whom God hath Joined let no
man put asunder." As a matter of fact,
those whom God hath joined no man can
| put asunder. That is a holy marriage
that should endure and does endure until

| But what of the marriage with which
God had nothing to do? Marriages that
! are the result of accident, or of honest
| mistakes, or OF the befoolment of a man
| or woman who is tricked into a union
! with an utterly unworthy mate? What
| Is holy about them? What good can
come of forcing two people who hate
each other, and who bring out all that
| Is worst In each other. to live together?
II It were a question OF happiness
alone perhaps the stern moralists might
| be justified in saying to the man or
woman who has made a terrible matri-
monial mistake, stick TO your bargain.
Endure without whining the misery that
you have innocently brought upon your
self" The effects. however of man
or woman being yoked with am unequal
mate go far beyond a question of indi-
| vidual bliss or woe.

| the wreck OF all that man or woman
