The greatest conundrum in the whole world is, why did she marry him? i ‘There is only one greater, and that 4is, Why did he marry her? ' In all my clrcle of acquaintance, in- cluding several thousands, I know of but four or five married couples at the most concerning whom thelr friends, and especlally their relatives, agree that each has picked the right one. | _And this is not only true in those countries where marriages are ar- ranged by the parties concerned under the influence of iromantic affection, but is equally true of other countries in which pacents families and marriage brokers attend to the matter. In fact, it is a curious state of things that while marriage is one of our most established institutions, and seems to be in the main reasonably tisfactory, the concensus of opinion of all of that part of mankind, aside !from the man and wife themselve: consider each particular instance to ibe a mistake. ~ | The universal comment continiies to be: Why did she marry him, and why did he marry her. Perhaps one reason is that the deed wog done under the impulse of a sort o1 force that does not recognize the auestion, why? a subconscious instinet. People do not fall in love because they to, nor do they fall in love with a person whom reason declares to b !the most suitable companion, | _They fall in love with that person of the opposite sex with whom they istrike fire, ought { There is no book of rules and no | fentific text book, the little girl Beatrice should obse: nte, why Petrarch should com under’ the influence of Laura, or ex- |plains the sudden and overpowering jinfatuation that took hold of Romeo and Juliet. Of " such that tells why thinge we must all sa with the p mist of the divine mys teries, “Such things are too wonder- ful for me; they are high, I cannot lattain unto them. | Here is a girl, city bred, devoted to art and music, fond of society and all that sort of thing, who picks out a sea captain, bluft, hale and hearty, who dogen't know one tune from another, or whether Bogticelli is the name of a cheese or a violin. And here is a man who is very prim and orderly, even fastidious, who marries a girl ‘that never keeps her house zlean or her hair combed, and whose boudoir in the morning is strewn with shoes, stays and other femfnine |apparel, as if a cyclone had rage |there. " A taciturn man marries woman whose tongue is loosely hung the middle and wags unce ingl. The most reactionary minded woman {Will pick out the most adventurous |minded radical for a husband. And {50 it goes. 1 ¢ root of the matter is that th thing we call romantic affection is {permanent element of human natur {1t will not.be gotten rid of. When you imagine you have abolished it, it {Will crop out in a new place. r instance, in the Orfent a man! {family selects his wife for him, an for the very good reason that the are wiser and more experienced than ‘h(-, And the woman's family selects | her future husband for the same rea- fon. The same thing holds true in { a modified degree in Europe, especially {@among the nobility, and still more junvarvingly among the royalty. i _What is the result? In the east {th, result s mcubinage, or a plurality of wives. In Europe it is the morganatic marriage among th nobility, and everywhere It is the dis- {position’ to look with considerable {toleration upon the mistress. i In other words if our old friend, {romantic affection, cannot come in the _Yl‘rvn' door, he will eak in at window or slide down by ‘chimney. Romantic affection is simply ure's way of attending to the ting business, and if any one |thinks' that he or any law or social |arrangement can circumvent nature {in the long run, he would better think {again, FORMER POLICEMAN DEAD.
