HERE IS GLOOMY NOTE
ON MARRIAGE PROSPECT.

Marriage today is not a success.
The marriage of one man and one
woman has never been success,
has never been a reality. in fact,
except in a few cases.
The homogeneous idea developed
from the idea or experience of
perfect and undying union"
sacrament instead of a biological
necessity. Two people see each other
every day and exhaust all the nov
city from their companionship, so
that they soon go stale" staleness
leads to boredom, boredom to quar-
rels, quarrels to divorce.
Society will have to find some wa.
to provide for suitable mating along
eugenic lines. Children will have
to be considered as an asset to the
state.
Many a couple marry before they
have discovered whether they are
fitted for each other.
Some people have such a strong
magnetic attraction for each other
-obeying a higher law Of race i'm
provement-thatt they break the ar
tificial bonds that society imposes.
Divorce is really a blessing in
many cases, though the causes or
necessity leading UP to it is trag-
edy. OF all the married couples OF
my acquaintance, / do not know or
one couple that are really happy
and glad. They are simply max
ing the best of it," READER.

MARRIAGE STANDS
TEST HE ASSERTS

The answer to your questions
much depends upon what consti-
tutes success matrimonially con-
sidered. Is it to be summoned up
in the trite phrase "and' they lived
happy ever after" or is 1T to conform
to the divine injunction given our
first parents, to "be fruitful and
multiply" Whatsoever the stand
ards established it is said to be
somewhat doubtful II they are being
attained by many who, perhaps,
loved not wisely but too well in
their giddy pre-nuptial days-and
in this respect, the genuine love
match" fares but little better than
the chance infatuation.
MARRY in haste and repent at
leisure" passed into a proverb-be-
fore the divorce was discovered
but il is no less true that long
engagement wears the edge off Ro-
nance, extracts much of the honey
from the honeymoon and effectually
chills Loves impetuous fire. If, as
we are assured, marriages are made
in heaven, many unlucky mortals
feel that the celestial matchmaker
either got his matrimonial matters
sadly mixed or is unfortunately
handicapped by chronic case or
marital strabismus. 1t must be borne
in mind, however, that marriage Is
strictly terrestrial enterprise and
even tho initiated by divine com
mand. is of the earth earthly and In
common with other scriptural pre-
cepts, is but poorly administered by
it's custodians of clay.
We shall always have with us
those whose devotion to detail de-
MES them the proper appreciation of
the whole: who search out the rift
in tho Lutte, the flaw in the marble
or the pimple on tho nose of Sep
tember Morn. and who would make
of matrimony's miscarriage a hide
Gus nightmare, a horrible example
to frighten optimistic candidates
for nuptial bliss. And all unaware

And as he started for the door

Things to Think
About

DON'T FEAR THE BEST IN YOU.
Don't be afraid Of your generous
emotions.
II you trust a friend. trust him
unto death, or course, you may
be deceived in him. But better
be humiliated by betrayal than be
incapable of perfect faith.
If you love your wife. love
loyalty. utterly. She may not
appreciate it. But better be un-
appreciated than to miss the Joy
of perfect self-giving.
Don't be afraid to forgive. The
object of your forgiveness may be
unworthy, but that cannot mar the
f1neness of your pardon.
Don't be afraid to show yourself
friendly, for only so you show
yourself worth friendship.
Don't be afraid of being too
kind. I'm this world" says Mar
ivaux, "one must be a little too
kind to be kind enough"
SHAKESPEARE.
Three hundred years after his
death william Shakespeare is still
the acknowledged foremost dra-
matist of the world.
How many human beings ever
trod this substellar globe who did
anything that lasted three hun
dred years?
Three hundred years have buried
myriads in oblivion, but not him.
Three hundred years have
dashed their waves against his
Agont, but the features of his
magnificent mind stand out ever
clearer.
After three hundred years the
worlds heart turns to him and
finds him still a youth.
"Age cannot wither him, nor
custom stale his infinite variety"

SYMPATHY, UNDERSTANDING,
KEY TO HAPPINESS.

In married life the ties that bind
are sympathy, understanding, and
appreciation. A wife should be in
terested in her husbands work. try
to become absorbed in his inter
ests, remember his favorite whims,
and habits. and indulge them.
Most women as soon as they
marry refuse to go out of their way
to hold a man and there can be no
happiness in married life where
there is no confidence. Unconscious
of our own fault we see and magni-
~ each others, and we are willfully
blind to the influence of tenderness
and love. How strange it is that we
live so long before We learn to live

but of being discovered.
In the center OF the garden not
far from a small shrine the sweet
faced nun was stopped In her walk
by one OF her impetuous charges
who flourished a letter and seized
her arm. Mother Angela, read

The girl cut her short-''you've

never been on a vacation like the
rest of us-think how she'd enjoy
it-what it would mean to her.
Father was an orphan himself-he
says 500 he can sympathize
with Alice-you'll let her come
with me?"
The mother nodded-from the
first she had had no idea Of re-
fusing, and the girl with a
radiant smile ran to the tree.
Alice came back to earth as
her friend threw her arms about
her and kissed her.
"I've a surprise for you"
"For me, Mabel?"
"For YOU" And she held forth
the letter. you're to come with
me through vacation. Father has
asked me to bring you-won't

"Who wouldn't be-besides,
you're the one who's been kind

The two girls went off arm in

to listen, to the charms Of hos
pitality in one of the homes of
the lovely South.
To Alice the whole plan SEEM

dreams called forth by the story
of King Cophetua. Since she could
remember she had never been
outside the city Of New Orleans,
which lay like a barrier beyond
the convent walls. Now she was
to travel like the other girls, to
see s--ange sights, to know the
delights of riding horseback, to
see new people; it was too un-
real to be credible.

"They don't mean to be rude,"
said Alice condoningly.
"There's nothing to make them
that way" answered Mabel drily,
"but of course it doesn't count
here when ones father happens
to be rich-you didn't know that

"and they didn't either"

POVERTY AND PREJUDICE
BAR BLISS. HE BELIEVES.

There are two things which will
make marriage a general success.
namely, riches and brotherhood.
Poverty and prejudice must be
eliminated; Jews and Gentiles must
forget their religious differences
and parents must not interfere with
their offspring who are of mar
riageable age. The international
motto should be, "A little bit OF a
mother-in-law's Nose goes long
way"
School children should be taught
idealistic sociology, and grown-ups
should have a poetic conception or
true love, and moving pitcures
should be made to immortaliZe
Shakespeare instead of common
scandals. Snappy stories should be
tabooed, and the writers of them
compelled to do something useful.
If religion interferes with marriage,
give up religion for religion is OF
tho earth, but love is immortal.
Aye! love is a super-reiigion.
