Many men are like you, John.
They think that man should not
ask the woman he loves to marry
him unless he can offer her a gilded
cage and a soft cushion to sit upon.
Let me tell you that real women
are not waiting for soft matrimonial
snaps. They want love and the
mons attention, his interest, and
many a millionairess would trade
off her jewels for little Of her
husbands society, few spontaneous
attentions, and a warm kiss or two.
Furthermore, the woman who mar
ries "a man who does not need her
help has missed the greatest priv
ilege in the world. She is never
part of him as the woman is who
has made of her shoulders a ladder
upon which her husband climbs up.
Once upon a time, the wife Of the
most famous engineer in this coun-
try, man now worth many millions,
said to me that the happiest time Of
her life was when her husband was a
poor, struggling, young chap, and
she lived in a shack and washed his
shirts.

Thus far I have resisted the lure
Of unholy skirts and have kept my
self morally clean. love home life,
am fond Of children, and feel that
1 could make a devoted father and
husband, but
Has q man. such as I have de-
scribed myself to be, right to ask
a girl to take a chance" knowing
that if she accepts he is sentencing
her to a, financially speaking,
mediocre existence? 1 would like to
play fair. LONESOME JOHN.
Answer: No man has a right to
starve a girl, John, but if he can
make enough to assure her Of three
meals a day and roof over her
head, it is up to the girl to decide
whether she is willing to marry him
on the bread and-chee se-and-kisses
basis or not. No man should feel
that he has to stay single because
he cannot give his wife pearls and
a limousine.
The marriage that plunges a man
and woman into dire poverty brings
happiness to neither, but between
penury and riches there is long
gap. No marriages are so apt to be
happy, no husbands and wives are
as close together as are the moder-
ately weli-to-do, the couples who
work and struggle and plan and
hope together, who sacrifice for
each other, and whose whole happi
ness depends upon each other.
Why, John, that is the great
American romance! A youno couple
who marry on just barely enough
to
nest with scarcely more furniture
than the birds have, to whom the
buying Of a new suit or a new
chair is a great adventure and the
starting of a bank account an event
who share every hope and burden
and thought, and who build up their
fortune together; why, John, that's
the stuff that real marriages are
