DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX Shall “Twenty-One” Marry Woman With a Past?| Sride Who Is Teased at Cards—Rewin- ning a Divorced Wife. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am love girl who has a child that wa bright prospects. but my family and young man of 21, and in with a born outside of wedlock. 1 have very 3 friends tell me I will be a failure if I marry this young woman. T feel this girl needs a helping hand, and that I am the one to give her the lift. Now, Miss Dix, please tell me what to family look down on this girl, and 1 am trying to uphold her, for iood Book says we must forgive and help th that are fallen tell me what to do, as I iove .this girl, not my snobby MM and . my dear boy, W the final decision Don’t trust your jud; for two or three years at least, about marrying this girl with the gment now. It is too immature. . knowledge of women, knowledge of life. Wait until ore vou determine on whether you want to take the ke the sacrifices demanded by marrying a woman with a past. A before now you are carried away by the enthusiasm and altruism of You feel noble and chivalrous and like a Sir Galahad when you yurself her champion. It makes your breast swell with a sense when you think of rescuing her and her baby, and giving them the protection of your name, and you are filled with the glow of self- righteousness when you think of reforming her and inducing her to walk the straight- narrow path. All of this is very fine and beautiful, and terribly, terribly dangerous, for under the influence of these intoxicating sentiments many a foolish ¥ or girl marries the object of pity and spends the balance of life ance. Just vouth. mantic aurora which we cast about the prodigal does not last, Their husks are not poetic, seen at close range. They are > and sordid sins. We get tired of forgiving when we have to do it every day, and we realize that prodigals wouldnt be prodigals unless there were something essentially weak or vicious in their characters. And when we have to pay their score for them we are very apt to wish we had left them to settle their own debts dear repul Of course, the girl who has gone wrong may reform and make a true Many do, but no one can deny that the woman with a handicap to her husband. She is a fatal handicap to a nd will shut many doors of opportunity to him, and disadvantages is that the very fact that her husband married her discredits his judgment. The world cannot forgive him for doing such a foolish and quixotic act. It is a risky thing for even a middle-aged man, and one with a prosperous business established, to marry a woman with a past. It is a suicidal thing for a boy to do, so I beg you to wait at least until you have taken the measure of your own strength and your tastes are formed before you take the fatal leap. ~DOROTHY DIX. past is a heavy boy husband. Her b not the least of he EAR MISS DIX: Is it proper for a man to razz his wife while playing ards against her at the house of a friend? When my husband and his young lady partner make their bids he shakes hands across the table with her, and asks me if I don't wish I could play as well as they do. This humiliates me terribly. We have not been married a vear vet, and I am ed and hurt that my husband treats me that way, as he couldn't do enough for me before marriage. 1 thank you for any advice you may give. THE WIFE. Answer: My dear little wife, when you have been married 20 years, instead of one year, vou will know that wife-baiting is the favorite indoor sport of many husban If you will notice nearly every man’s best stories center around some mistake or blunder that his wife has made. No man ever gets tired of telling of how his wife hid her money in the stove, and then built a fire in it, or how she got taken in in a trade with an old clothes man, or how she signed a check “Yours affectionately, Mar: Brown.” And as for kidding her about the way she plays cards, and crowing over her when he beats her, why that is the greatest fun of the game! Of course, there isn't much enjoyment in it for the wife. I have seen women sit up at the head of their own dinner tables and bite their lips to keep back the tears of mortificaticn while their husbands set the table in a roar holding up the wife's little peculiarities to ridicule. And I have felt like taking the carving knife to the poor, stupid, dolt of a husband, who didn’t realize that he was torturing the wife he loved. For men really don’t mean to be unkind when they tease their wives. They have no idea how they are hurting them. They are just trying to be gunny, and think that their wives are taking it in the spirit in which it is meant. Cultivate a sense of humor. Don't take yourselt too seriously, and if| your husband’s little jokes still hurt you can always stop him by coming | back with a few merry quips at his expense. No joker can stand a joke on himself. DOROTHY DIX. D* ago my home was broken up, mainly through the machinations of my s family. I had only one child, who is dearer to me than my own life. Furthermore, T have a deep affection for my former wife, and would gladly do anything for her—in fact, did not protest her legal action, and gave her most of our property, hoping in this way that a reconciliation would be reached. 1 feel the present situation would not exist were interference of my wife's people. I would far rather be dead than to live without my family—the child needs its father as well as its mother. I want them both. What can I do to get them? BB . .. AR MISS DIX: T am a man just past middle age. A little over a year it not for the Answer: Be patient for a few months, and let nature take its course. Let the hard, bitter knowledge sink into your wife's consciousness that divorce isn't a panacea for every domestic woe. Let her realize that the divorced woman has no settled place in society, that she is neither maid, wife, nor widow. Time will fight on your side. It will make her forget whatever was unpleasant in her married life, and cause her to think longingly of her husband and home, and to ask herself if she was altogether blameless. Keep alive in her mind the knowledge of your love for the child, and your longing for it, and her conscience will reproach her for keeping you from it. But don’t walt too long, until she makes other ties. Then court her as you did when she was a girl, and the chances are almost certain that you will win her back. And this also will be in your favor—often a family will break up a marriage and urge a woman to get a divorce, and then when she comes back home to live make her unwelcome and her life miserable.
