Marriage, the Great Gamble
ITO marry or not to marry that
u Is the question!
Once, there was no question
about It. IL you didn't marry,
you were failure in the eyes Of
the world, and q disappointment
to the family.
Marriage was the Great Miracle,
which afforded q girl q chance
to crafty her vanity, pacify her
family, mortify her enemies, and
electrify her friends. Laurels
were no substitute for orange
blossoms; and wedding ring was
a greater prize than loving cup,
a college degree, or q Carnegie
medal.
But all that is OUT! As quaint
as a joke about q horse and
buggy! Girls, as well as young
men, are beginning to look upon
marriage as a gamble rather than
as a goal. And q husbandsis re-
garded as a speculation, rather
than as Gods greatest gift to
woman.
You see, it's this way: II you
haven't got q husband, you can
never be sure Of an escort to take
you where you want to go. But,
IL you HAVE a husband, you can
be pretty sure that he will want
to take you somewhere that you
don't want to go.
If you are free, you have to
work hard for your hving-but
you can spend your money as
foolishly as you like. And II you
are somebody's rib" you have to
wheedle or beg for your money
and then explain how, why ana
where you spent it.
If you are single, you have to
sit UP and wait for a man to go
home-and, If you are married,
you have to sit up and wait for
him to come home. SO, you don't
get much sleep, either way.
If you haven't a husband, you
are apt to sit around all evening,
waiting for somebody to show up
and devote himself to you--and II
you have a husband, you may
have to sit around all evening
waiting for him to stop devoting
himself to some other woman.
II you are unattached. all the
men suspect that you are after
them, and all the women eye you
suspiciously, and wonder II you
are a vamp or husband-hunter.
And II you are married, everybody
eyes your husband and wonders
how you "stand for that man.
If you are single, somebody al
ways wants to take you home
from a party before you have had
half enough-and If you are mar
ried, you have to hang around
and try to look pleasant, until
your "Dearie" has had too much.
So, the odds are event
In the sweet old days, when
every married man was q hus.

riage was a feather In your cap.

And there never yet was

If Christie were mine she would
play with those common kids.

youngsters into my home and
