" A Man and His Wife,

Editor Palladium-Your story, "A
Man and His Wife," arouses terrible
doubts and suspicious in my mind. yet
there is something so fascinating
about them that l read every one, al
though I know that afterward I shall
be blue and respondent.
am young girl, in love with a
young man who is all that q lover
could be, thoughtful, attentive, pleas
ant, ambitious and successful. Would
he change and be like John, If we
were married? Are there no happy
marriages any more? John and Isa-
bel quarrel all the time over the most
trivial matters. Would my lover do
the same? Don't tell me that he would,
because can not bear it, But every
where you read of such incompatible
alliances as theirs. The newspapers
are full of divorce scandals, telling of
faithless husbands anu wives.
Are there not happy marriages? Are
there not persons who do remain
faithful to each other. and who do not
quarrel all the time? / wish some
married woman who has lived a happy,
consecrated life. would tell her ex-
perience. l have read so much of the
other side that it's contemplation is
making me skeptical and morose.
