THE DANGEROUS TINE.

II you take the word Of Sir Geor-e Lewis a
London lawyer who speciazes on getting divorces
for the nobility, the dangerous period in marriage
is between the seventh and tenth year
His observation 50 he says points to this as a
time when marriage ties are weakened in most
cases Before and beyond this Period. is the realm
of safety.
II YOU prefer the authority of commission. ap-
pointed in Sweden to study its divorce problem be-
of unusual number Of cases the danger
point is three years after the wedding bells ring
If you turn TO certain school of reformers in
this country they would tell you that the time is
before not after marriage and that the cure for
the divorce evil lies in tightening the formaIties
for matrimony and insisting on more deliberate
consideration than is sometimes given by those who
feel the darts OF Cupids bow.
Against these authorities, let the suggestion be
made that they are all wrong and that the danger
Ous time for the ship of Matrimouy is every day
1t fails when selfshness hardness Of heart or
greed drive away love from the heart and when a
sense Of ownership supplans the holy fires Of love
It fails when there ceases to be common pur-
pose in life that makes for companionship.
1t fails when the ties become bonds which clink
with chains OF slavery rather than devotion which
seeks serve
1t fails when the home ceases to be natter
Of interest to be protected and when the tributes
once gladly given in love become the commonplace
of rights to be demanded.
Matrimony is not adventure but an institution.
and it fails mostly when and women lose sight
Of ts place in the scheme OF civilization and
place their personal aims and wishes above all other
considerations.
