that move may be made to depose

BRIDES CIT TAKES
BY MADAME SCHUMANN-HEINK
The Famous Diva
In the brain of the bride of June
there is a very definite picture of life
with "the dearest chap in all the
world, who loves me more than any
girl was ever loved before and whom
l love with my whole heart"
You picture beautiful home, ex-
quisitely furnished, and yourself
waiting for your husband as you now
wait for your lover in your prettiest
frock, your sunniest smiles and your
best nature.
VIII this dream come true?
Dreams, you know, are mighty in
tangible things. They hardly leave
a memory behind, and while love may
be made up of the most ideally per-
feet dreams, marriage is always the
awakening to stern reality.
A man seldom marTies until he
has made some provision for the sup
port of his wife and home. He has a
trade, a profession, or particular
niche which he fills in commercial
life that usually allows him to answer

solemnly: "Can you support my
daughter when she becomes your
wife,"
What would happen if the prospec-
tive groom's mother should ask the
girl: "Can you run the house econom-
ically and efficiently that my son
