A Real Responsibility
For the Future.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Will you please discuss the ques-
tion Of health as a prerequisite to
marriage? The man to whom am
engaged is in love with me, and I
love him dearly. but he and his en-
tire family seem to be infected with
tuberculosis, his father having died
of the disease. am not certain
that he seems to have the symptoms.
AS far as 1 am concerned, / would
marry him with the disease, IL he
should have 1t, but how about our
possible children? We both are OF
families of financial standing.
Please help me in my uncertainty.
FAITH.
The FIRST thing, OF course. is to
find out whether or not the young
man has the disease. II he has,
he should be put under treatment
Immediately and if it has not gone
too far, it can probably be ar
rested to such an extent as to be
practically as good as cure. II
he is not afflicted with the ailment
yet and sleeps out of doors, does
not come into direct contact with
the relatives already afflicted, ]
doubt il you have much cause to
worry about him or possible chill
dren. / think the best authori-
ties are agreed that the disease is
not hereditary. II is said that the
predisposition to disease is
hereditary. but not the disease IT.
self-by that Is meant that the
children of tubercular parents are
more inclined TO contract the dis
ease than others. This subject is a
matter, however, more suited to
your family physician than to me.
One must know every fact in a
case Of this sort before ones opin-

tend to devote but one evening a
week to you. Personally, if he
could not be more of husband to
me, I think l would be less of a
wife to him. No man can expect
a woman to be wife, mother, cook,
nursegirl, ct cetera with neither
salary, comparionship or love.
Such a man as your husband
should never have married. He
should have kept his own quar-
ters with a man servant to min
lister to his wants. If he wanted
a child, he could have adopted
one.
However, there is always an
other side to every story. If your
husband considers he is wasting
his time when he spends it with
you, what have you to say? Has
he reason to find you uninterest-
ing and deadening mentally? Do
you bore him with petty details Of
the days uninteresting household
events?
1t may easily be that you are
not at fault, however, and that
neither a Minerva nor an As
phasia could interest him. If SO,
our only defense seems to be to
fill your life with other things.
Find some interesting study
course to pursue; 60 to lectures,
concerts and theaters. Draw
around you friends and compan-
ions. Invite people in for the
evening. If the question Of ex-
pense is involved, you have per-
feet right to assert that you must

EAR MISS FAIRFAX:

~ EAR MISS FAlRFAh:
Several years ago, when a
young girl I read the pas
sage that I shall quote, and now.
after a married life of two years.
when my twenties are past, they
come to me to make my heart ache,
and to wonder II. after all, such
love Is only read about-a FOOLS
dream? But let me quote the pas
sage:
"-something that we satisfy
ourselves by calling not earthly
and Of the body, but unearthly and
Of the soul-something that is not
pursuit and enjoyment OF another.
but self-sacrifice for another's
sake--that does not bring safety
but ever growing dearness onward
through youth, and Joy into old
age-that remains faithful when
the one of two sits warm In the
sun and the other lies cold In the
shadow-that burns on and on as
a faithful lonely flame in a worn
out broken lamp-and that asks, as
its utmost desire. for life
throughout eternity spirit with
spirit"
All through girlhood I dreamed
Of love like that, and waited for

hearted gentleman, to whom one
naturally turns when in trouble.
But oh, Miss Fairfax, how he
hurts me. SO much that of late
have wondered IL it is worth whole
to go on. Let me give you a few
instances: Three months after we
were married. when 1 was ill, he
left me evenings to go to the Ii
brary to study. When our baby
came. and my life hung in the
balance, I asked him to stay with
me at the hospital-he refused, ex-
planning that he was leaving me
in good hands. Had he been half

CIVIL SERVICE AND

EX-SERVICE MEN.
EDWARD M. ROSS submits the
straight question whether former
service men should be compelled t.
take civil service examinations to
enter the Government service. He
asks comrades to express theil
opinions over their names.
"There was no exam when they
enlisted or were drafted" he
comments. "Why should this be
necessary now?
There are many of us Of the
opinion that a service man who
has the qualifications to perform
his duties should be granted
permanent appointment after 4
six months trial as a temporary
appointee without the customary
civil service examination.
"While the soldiers and sailors
were giving their time to their
country their competitors were
home giving time to personal
study to prepare for competition
