Marry an Opposite.

His opposite" was the quick
and decisive reply.
The finest violin. the most ex-
quisite tuned. the handsomest
wrought, is useless without a bow
to string out the music imprisoned
in its heart. One might duplicate
the sensitive strings. the delicate
bridge. the graceful case, but until
there was a satisfactory bow, the
instrument is useless, incomplete for
melody.
80 1t is with man. The right
woman intensifies, accentuates every
goodthing in him. She brings out
possibilities he never dreamed he
possessed. She is the other half of
his happiness equation"
Then you do not believe persons
who are alike in tastes and tempera-
ment and abilities should marry"
l asked.
Mrs. Bacon sent a swift. compre-
hending glance from her dark eyes.
with the stars of humor twinkling
in their thoughtful depths.
AT the risk of being submerged
beneath a surf of Infatuated bowls, &"
she nodded, Il go on record as say
ing like should not marry like.
"A man with a bad liver, for in
stance. has no business marrying a
woman with chronic Bright's dis
ease. Each will be so absorbed in
individual aches and pains that
neither will have sympathy or toll
erance for the other. Husband and
wife will be like two garrulous pat
tents who had just enjoyed the same
operation, trying to Out-talk each
other.
"A tremendously serious man
should not marry woman without a
smile in her system. Every day
would be Blue Monday in such a
home. A frivolous man who mar
ries a butterfly has one chance in
million TO escape falling into the
mire of mediocrity, or, worse still,
of failure.
ut is a mistake for a lawyer to
marry a lawyer, for an artist to mate
with an artist, a business woman
with a business man. There is too
much ego in the human alchemy to
bear the test. One or the other
makes too frequent and fervid use
of the pronoun T. The other re-
sents playing second fiddle in this
domestic symphony. The result is
a discord that seeps out and strikes
the ears of friends, lightly at first,
gradually resounds through the
world at large and winds up with an
ear-splitting crash in some court or
other.
"A solemn man needs lightheart-
ed woman, to flood his heart and his
home with sunshine.

then so he can keep his feet on
the ground.
GYPSY Needs HomebOdy.
"A gypsy needs a home woman, to
keep him from wandering too far
afield
"A stay-at-home wants a wife who
likes to go out and see what is hap
pening in the world, to keep him
from growing moss on his back and
rust in his brain.
Fortunately, for the most part,
opposites do attract one another.
That keeps the world and its wives
balanced. Otherwise We would see
an endless procession OF matri-
monial barques listing to port or
starboard because all the weight hap
pened to be on that side and the
poor unhappy voyageurs would be
dumped over the side where they
would be compelled to founder and
strike out blindly for shore-prob-
ably in opposite directions.

Beth GriswOld," one of the
fashionable young lady who gets so
bored with being useless she takes
up the honorable profession of nurse
maid. In the course of her nursely
duties she meets a mere policeman.
This is what the author has to say
of Peggy and her policeman
You see, all her (Beth's) culture
counted at last; and she knew that
in the face of an enormous thing
like this, nothing-nothing in the
world-should separate them. Po-
liceman or Ambassador, Griswold or
nursemaid, it was all the same? No
body had ever told her that this
kind of feeling existed, but now that
she knew it, she knew that every
other feeling in the world was un-
important beside IL. That strong,
WONDERFUL creature, WITH Ills DuIH-
ing eyes, was hers, and she was his"
So Beth, in the book, promises to
marry her policeman. OF course, in
the end. he turns out to be a perfect
ly good millionaire. who has Joined
the police reserves because he, too,
grew tired of being the fifth wheel
on the cart of progress. But Beth
knew and loved him as policeman,
which is all that matters for the
purpose of etching Beth on the tab
let of woman-worth and courage.
To return to Josephine Daskam
Bacon's reason why Men Marry,
Beth found her complement, and the
millionaire policeman recognized in
Beth the end of his quest for happi-
ness.

Never Thinks of Story Loves.


II never think of the marriage
ceremonies perform-in my
stories" she confessed. They just
seem to happen in the natural Sc
quence of events.
Come to ponder the question, /
believe men marry because they
find, or think they have found, their
complement.
I'VE are all more or less selfish
in this business of life. What we
want more than anything else on
earth is happiness. Happiness is
the great unfinished quest.
so then, when a man meets a
girl or a woman who appeals to him
physically. mentally, socially, finan-
eially, artistically, or in any of the
varied dominos in which femininity
cloaks itself, he is like a young colt
in green pasture. What those ten
der blades of grass are to the brows-
ing colt the promise of happiness
through marriage and the right mate
is TO a man.
1T is a wholesome selfishness, the
quest for happiness on the part of
manageable man. 1t is the driving
force which POUNDS homes, builds
cities, propogates Presidents and per-
petuates the race.
The girl or woman who promises
the greatest return in happiness to
man is the one he is most anxious
TO marry. Failing to capture the
first prize. he will try for the sec
ond, the third, and so on through
the list of desirables.
There are men who seek their
happiness mate in matrimony once
and only once. Love will admit of
no substitute. Having been disap-
pointed in the one great promise.
they go down the western way
alone.
Why doesn't he marry?' asks
the world, wagging its wise old
head. How little the world knows
of scars on lonely hearts?
There is the other type of man,
the one who marries frequently and
with astounding ease. Phoenixlike.

and matrimony to wing in the wake

\ WHY MEN MARRY :
By JANE DIXON.

Another logical reason why men
invest in plain gold band rings.
Sound logic, too.
They are all sound. these answers
10 a very pertinent question by wO-
men who write and who. as success

TO the human heart.
Josephine Daskam Bacon. whose
wit is Of the Calibre of Toledo

whimsical side Of life with a clarity
which permits her to tell it amusing
ly to others. "bOO-ed" the question
Of men and marriage when it was
put to her.
Men marry because-because-
why because they marry. of course"
she said, seeming to surprise herself
with the futility OF her answer.
But YOU must have some one or
some few special reasons why they
commit matrimOny." | protested
