trouble should rest upon the Shout
ders Of my aged mother, with whom

Il brought my wife home, my
mother knowing nothing of our
marriage, while her mother did, hav-
ing given us a dinner. My wife and
| agreed to pay SIS a week for our
support My mother advised against
such a proposition, telling my wife
she should consider keeping house
and not working out, but finally
consented to let US stay at home
providing we could get started for
ourselves.
Il have nothing but good advice
from my people. l have only my
self to blame | have acted as a
child, married when not of age. and
giving marriage no thought. From
