Do Women Ever Look Ahead?

In the Woman's Home Companion a man who calls his confession "The Girls Who Wanted to Marry Me- says:
 Just a word in passing. Why is 1t that it never occurs to a certain type of woman that there may be some men in the world too good for her to marry Every man with any brains at all knows that there are some women in the world too good for him to marry. The average business man shies off from the brilliant and beautiful woman, lest, marrying her, he should be patiently outclassed through life. He wants woman who is just his equal in looks and inteligence-no more-at least not so much more that he will suffer in contrast. But women ap- parently never give such considerations a moments thought. I have seen bril- liant men loaded through life with wom- en who caught them very young, and who stopped growing at 19 while the men kept right on. Those women must have known, in the days when their fiances were quoting to them poetry which they couldn't understand. that they weren't the equals of their mem.

 ''She said all that" l queried.
 Not in so many words she was far too polite,'' answered the girl wretchedly, 'but it might as well have been written on the wall like Nebuchadnezzar's warn ing. Jacks mother put on her pince-nez as soon as I arrived and surveyed me critically, and then said: So this is the young lady my boy is going to marry?' Yes I said meekly, and wanted to die. I hope you are domestic she said. l told her kept house for my father. My boy says you are very fond of society,

came together again at point a short
distance above the Bass bridge. Fol
