They mey appear to take their troubles calmly to those outside the range of nal acquaintance. But those inside this range know it is the calm after a storm, not the beauty of poise that comes from trust in that Power which makes al] things work to- gether for good. The two types of calm are scarcely akin. ‘Those who in real life cry before they are hurt are the people who insist on looking oc the dark side. They take a lugubrious joy in their own lamenta- tions. They attract attention to them- selves through pity, Lut they get no- bticed. * It is when this peculiarity is discovered that the friends become amused at the heralded miseries and the amusement is not infrequently tinged with contempt. There is also an uncalculated element that often enters into what we assume to be the natural course of events. Somything unexpected happens and the whole face of things is altered. The dire disaster is averted as if by a miracle. A grateful sense of escape cannot fail to envelope us. This sense of escape should be so tempered with regrets that we “borrowed trouble” that never again would, we lament before- hand. Always to be looking for trouble is an unattractive habit. The person who is happily expectant of life and the future, who never cries before he is hurt, he it is who has the magic charm of attractiveness.

Are You A \DorothyDixl T 20 Marriage? N some the colleges they are now glving aptitude tests to the students to I see if they have a natural bent toward law or medicine or teaching or en- g or whatever career they are thinking of fitting themselves for. It is m this way to prevent many of the tragedies that result from round pegs trying vainly to fit themselves into square holes and to keep thousands of young men and women from wasting their time and money preparing themselves for pro!!elsxdom for which they have no talent and which nature never intended them 1o follow. . All of us know so many intelligent, industrious, energetic » failures in the world simply and solely because they are t:ying to au the thing for which they have no gift. Singers without voices, Writers without original- ity. Dumb preachers. Business men who never see &n oj ity and who never learn how to trade. Wasted labor. Wasted effort. Wasted lives, all be- cause John was forced to be a lawyer because the Joneses had always had law- yers in the family or mother thrust John into the ministry when he should have gone into a garage because she thought it would bé perfectly grand to have a son Wwho was a bishop or because snub-nosed Geraldine saw herself as a movie star instead of as she was. Certainly it will be an incalculable boon to humanity and prevent millions of bitter ppointments and_discouragements and the shedding of barrels of tears if the®psychologists can separate the sheep from the goats before they break into the wrong pasture and starve to death because there is no food in it for which they have an appetite. What a pity 1t is that just as these students are to be tested for their fit- ness for following some particular profession there is not some way can tee for matrimony could be tested for their aptitude for the holy estate. The thing that is chiefly the matter with marriage is that men and women who are trying to practice it as a profession have no talent for it and so they make & mess of it. They are not natural-born husbands and wives, and no mat- ter how hard they strive they will never make a success of the calling. They will always turn out an amateurish, jackleg sort of job that will never give any real satisfaction. A man and woman may be models of all the virtues. They may do their duty like early Christian martyrs. They may be splendid friends, wonderful pals | jacge; and still be utter failures as husband and wife just because they are not adapted to domestic life, and it would stop about three-fourths of the divorces if they could find this out before marriage instead of afterward. There are men, for instance, who are just natural philanderers. Then there is the tightwad man whose only real passion in life is for money. The man who is 50 absorbed in his business or profession that he has no time or interest to give anything else should not marry. Nor should the selfish man marry. Nor should the cold, undemonstrative man marry. Nor should a man marry if he does not want to settle down and be a fireside companion. o Nor should the undomestic woman marry. The von?\n ‘who does not thrill to the sight of pots and pans and who skips all the recipes in the newlp':gen and who does not love every detail of homemaking should refrain from taking any man's happiness and digestion into her keeping. Nor should any woman marry if she thinks that there is some more important career in the world than being merely a wife-and mother., ’ | No woman should marry who is not adaptable and who cannot change her | oes her hats. No woman should ive and take. Nor iplomacy in getting opinions and her prejudices as easily as she marry who is not & good' sport and who is not willing to should any woman marry who is not willing to use tact and along with her husband. Above all, no women should marry if she isn't of a kind, loving sunny dis- poslll‘on. for on the wife's temper and temperament depends the success of every marriage. ‘What a pity that every marriage license bureau doesn’t keep a psychologist at hand to give the prospective bridegroom and bride a test and find out if they are adapted to marriage!
