(Copyrigtt, 1027.) DorothyDix Although There Are Dozens of Ways to Break Match, Parental Opposition Won't Do It—Ridicule and Diplomacy. How to Break Up an Undersirable Match Gives Hints to Distracted Parents “ THERE any way to break off a match and prevent a silly girl and boy who are hell-bent on self-destruction from twrecking their lives making an unsuitable marriage?” a worried mother asks. “I have a young daughter,” she goes on to s man who Is in every way her inferior, who has not had the social and educa- tional advantages that she has had; who cannot give her the t she is accustomed; who has not even made a living for himself so far, has nothing to recommend him except that he has a handsome face, dancer, and has what the girls call a ‘cute line. 1d who s a good “For my daughter to marry him will bring certain misery upon her, for her infatuation will not last when she finds that he is shiftless and lazy and | lacks ambition. Nor will she care much about his looks when she sces her own fading under the blight ot poverty and work. Yet nothing that I can say about the unwisdom of making such a marriage has any effect upon her, and, unfortunately, the good old days are gone when you up in a turret chamber and feed her on bread and water until her temporary love madness was cured.” Of course, there are ways of breaking up an undesirable match. sands of ‘em. But the hammer-and-tongs method favored by most rents is not one of them. It is folly to forbid the emancipated youth of today to marry whom it pleases. It is a grotesque and ridiculous gesture to threaten to turn a girl and boy, who are making their own living, and probably helping to support the family, out of doors, if they do not marry to suit you. Yet in spite of this, and in spite of its heing common knowledge that, next to propinquity, opposition is the greatest match-maker in the world, when fathers and mothers disapprove of their sons’ and daughters’ choice of a prospective wife or husband, generally all that they can think to do is to fa bid John to marry that Smith girl, and refuse to let Mary’'s young man come to the house. The only result of which is to hurry up the wedding. John and Mary are bound to show that they will not be dictated to. Furthermore, their parents’ opposition has made them the champions of the much-abused maiden and youth with whom they were going, and of whom they probably would have tired if they hadn't been forced into a partisanship that ended by making them believe themselves far more ln l.n\'(; lh‘nn they really were. OF COURSE, in breaking up a match an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and the time for parents to get in their work is when their girls and boys begin to show symptoms of being love-struck, and hefore the case becomes chronic. At this stage ridicule is a specific that seldom fails. Many a match has been broken off by the family gibes at a girl who ate with a knife, or whose grammar was uncertain, or at a boy who wore his trousers too short nd his hair too long. For John and Mary might stick to the end to a persecuted martyr, but never to one who was laughed at as a figure of fun. B “T see she spells ‘affection’ with one ‘f,’” said wily old Maj. Pendennis, who had been called in to break off Arthur's affair with the actress nearly twice his age. And that ended the matter with the lad, who had heen deaf to his mother's tears and prayers and entreaties. And the plan still works. As T have sald, trying to keep young people forcibly apart invariably results in hurling them into each other's arms, but I have known of more than one match broken off by giving young people too much of each other’s society. This remedy is particularly effective when applied in the Summer. Especlally do I recommend this plan to any mother whose son thinks he is in love with a girl of whom she does not approve. Ask the girl to spend a couple of weeks with you in August, and throw her upon the boy’s hands to entertain. If, by the end of her visit, he doesn’t hate her, be sure it is one of the matches that are made in Heaven, and with which no mortal has a | vight to interfere, e . OMETIMES an object lesson is more effective than any argument can be. One of my friends had a daughter who persisted in her intention to e drunkard who, she felt,. needed only her sacred influence to reform im “Very well,” sald her mother to her, “that's what your Cousin Sally thought. She married her drunkard, and [ want you to go and spend a month with her and see how it worked out, and whether her fate appeals to you.” Tt didn't take much of a close-up of the life of a drunkard's wife humiliations, its poverty and its anxleties, to disillusion the girl and con- vince her that reformation wasn’'t her forte, and that it was better to marry a man who had the strength to go straight of himself than to try to make of herself an artificial backbone for a weakling. with its Often young men and women owe their charm to their environment. The artless village maiden, who knows nothing of hooks or society, is adorable in her bucolic surroundings, but she is awkward and dull and a hopeless m fit in a sophisticated city. The plcturesque guide in his gay shirt and leather leggings is a romantic figure in the backwoods, but not in a cultured society. So, wise are the parents who give their children an opportunity to see the heroes of their midsummer madness transplanted into an environment in which a spotlight is turned upon all of their little provincialisms. Be sure it proves the death of many a romance, and saves many an unhappy and un- congenial marriage, Oh, there are many ways of breaking up an undesi takes tact and diplomacy, not force, to do it, and each c say, indicates its own specific treatment!
