When a Widow Remarries.

When a widow remarries she must
look out for the family Of her first hus-
band as we'll as for herself. Sometimes
a widow Is left dependent on others;
In these instances, her second marriage
can rarely affect the family OF her first
husband In an adverse fashion.
RemarriaRe should not mean q sac
rice of personal fortune for several
reasons. Marriage like any other
venture OF O similar sort, is subject to
hazard. The hazards may be OF those
Of fortune, change OF heart, or any
other.
While the woman herself may decide
to accept the risks involved to realize
happy union, she must acknowledge
certain obligation TO her immediate
family. Children must be sheltered,
fed and clothed. They must be edu-
Gated
1t is not fair to subject them to the
chance of losing necessaries as well as
privileges when one marries for the
second time, Their economic future
should be assured them as provided by
the estate of their father. When their
funds are left In trust this execution
of provision Ia automatic.
The widow must look upon remar-
riage with emphasis on the economic
side of the contract. She must marry
man who can support both herself
and her family.
On the other hand. mere ability to
support does not signify willingness to
do the same. Often foster parents are
unsympathetic and disinterested. It is
a matter of discretion to sound out the
mans attitude toward his assumed obli-
cations.
Remarriage seldom comes early in
life. 1t comes when judgments are as
