F YOU MARRY

If you marry a man who is penurious you have a husband who will be un- failingly true to you, because 1t costs money to stray.
 He will grumble over the cost of your hats and gowns, but he Is not buying hats and gowns for any other woman. When not engaged in business he will be at home reading books from the free Hrary or watching the gas meter. He iS not always cheerful, for life, measured by pennies, is serious proposition. He does not readily "see" joke, and if, in that atmosphere, you retain your God given sense of humOr, you are won. derful woman. But you won't. So slowly you will never know when the process began;' you, too, will cOnfine your reading to books from a free Il. brary; you too will view the gas meter with alarm, and you too will rarely smile.
 But he will always be true to you,
