Flo Ziegfeld, who is surrounded by more feminine youth and pul- chritude than any other man in the world, against all comers, she replied suc- cinctly: “I take him as he is and let it go at it.” ‘The pronouncement of an oracle. A lady Solomon with pearls of wisdom falling from her lips, for in these few words are all of the law and the prophets about how to be happy though married and how to keep out of the divorce court. For what are the disillusions of matrimony of which we talk so much? on earth but finding out that the individuals to whom we are married are just ordinary human beings, even as we are, and not the romantic heroes or the little tin gods that we imagined them to be. ‘What makes the disgruntied husbands and wives that we see all about us, ‘who throw up their hands and quit? They are the men and women who are nloc:oodenoulhmuwmnd the they made and make the best of them. What is at the bottom of nine-tenths of the domestic scrapping that kills the love between husbands and wives and keeps at odds with each other and that makes home a place of strife and torment from which husbands and children flee for their lives? It is the nagging and fretting and peevishness and complaining of the wife, the surliness, the grouchiness and fault-firiding of the husband, each dissatisfied because the other is not something that he or she never was and never could possibly become. Back of every family quarrel is the lack of philosophy that enables a man and woman to take their mates as they are and let it go at that. ‘They want all the good qualities their husbands and wives possess and then some. A man wants a wife with all the virtues, plus all the beauty and allure- ments of the vamp. Or he wants all the beauty and allurement of the vamp with the domestic virtues superimposed upon them. A woman wants a husband who is a go-getter and a money-maker, but she wants him to be in addition a m-yboy and a soulful poet. Or she wants the soulful poet and the playboy with le moneymaking bump. Because all of these divergent qualities seldom meet in the same person ‘we go about beating upon our breasts and bewailing our mistakes in marriage, and swapping old wives and husbands for new, and finding out when we get them home t they llkewise have their defects and don’t come up to our ideals any more than the ones we already had. In reality very few marriages would be failures if we lmusht any spirit of There are not many men who are out and out rotters and about making the women they marry miserable. Nor are their husbands’ happiness. Most men and women are in love when tthey marry and have every intention of being dfood husbands md\wlvu. Most often they are good husbands and wives according to their lights) and when thes generally because those to whom they are married expect the impossible of them and demand of them what they have not to give.

Looking up she could see the blue, blue sky—just a wee bit of it—through the little round doorway. Of course, being inside that can, she could see nothing of what Farmer Brown's Boy was doing. She strained her ears and she heard his footsteps sounding fainter and fainter. lly all was still tly - she faintly heard the notes of Carol the Meadow Lark s over on the Green Meadows.
