Spinsters Rote No More Pity
Thon the Majority of Wives

Why do people pity old maids?
Why do old maids pity themselves?
Why are mothers so anxious for
their. daughters to marry that
they would rather they were un-
happily married than not married
at all? Why does a woman feel
that getting a husband is draw
ing the capital prize in the lottery
of life, and that If she doesn't get
one she is bound to spend her
days in drabneSs and loneliness?
Nobody feels that way about an
old bachelor. Nobody considers
that life must be cinders. ashes
and dust to him because he isn't
married. On the contrary. he is
cherished by hoStesses, pursued by
women and regarded by other men
with awe and envy because he has
been foxy enough to dodge the
burdens Of patrimony.
As Well OFF As Man.
Yet in these days of feminine
emancipation, when every avenue
of occupation is open to woman
and a woman's earning capacity
and her achievements are only
limited by her ability, wherein is
the lot Of the girl bachelor diff
ferent from the lot of the man
bachelor?
No one will deny that an ideal
marriage in the nearest approach
to a heaven on earth that any NOR
tai can ever know. For a woman
to get a husband who is tender
and true and loving and who gives
her a perfect companionship: to
have a beautiful and peaceful
home and fine children is for her
to be the darling of the gods. /, If
marriage inevitably brought this
to a woman-even if she had a
sporting chance Of getting it-one
could not wonder at her desire for
matrimony and at her feeling that
to be an old maid was the crown
ing blow that fate could deal her.
But this Is not the case. It is
only in fairy tales that Prince
Charming comes riding every
maiden's way. Most homes are

sweatshops instead OF palaces of
dreams and oftener children are
causes of tears and anxiety than
sources of pride and congratula-
ton.
When the average old maid
compares her lot with that of hel
married sister she does not want
to swap jobs with her. She looks
in the mirror and sees that she

than sister. She Is better dressed

of. On Saturday night she has
her pay envelope instead of get

She is free to come and go as

respect and consideration, and
even jollied along by her boss, be-
cause if he knocked her work con-
tinually and swore at her and was
