By Helen Oldfield. EW questions, If any, are more anxtously and ¢ F quently propounded by lovers than that of Upon much, or, rather, upon how little, money It ts safe pot to say prudent, for a young couple to marry, rry and the spirit th It all depends upon the two who m in whieh they enter into “the holy estat Oatmeal latable frea’ a cheerful and extenuating spirit makes a p? fast, whereas oatmeal and dissatisfaction is sawdust and ashes upon the tongue, Husbands and wives who are poor In wo goods often are rich in all else which makes life worth living, and the wife who has struggled up hill with her husband generally cares far more for him than does the one who thas joined hers after he nas reached the summit. Life largely {s made up of compensations, and moreover mostly {6 determined for each man and woman by thelr own characters and the interaction with tho characters of those who surround them. It 1s not what one has but what yne is which makes up one's fate, The elder Worth said that no woman was fit to marry until she could make er own gowns, if it was necessary that she should do so. In old Norway every ride was obliged by custom to cook her wedding dinner, and upon that dinner epended her reputation as a housewife, the opinion of thelr friends as to the ‘Hsdom of her husband's choice, What most people need in order to Insure aarital happfness 4s not mors money but more common sense, the realization vhat life 19 a matter of obligations and duties which none can and none should wish to escape. It ds foolish in the extreme for a newly married couple to begin life at a pace which they cannot maintain, spending what money they have !n uselers { extravagances which bring no solid return. Even where there is a solid fund fn reserve it is unwise to heavily draw upon {t or to abstain from adding to it at the outset of matrimony, It is always easy to pass from comfort to luxury. {When luxury must be relinquished the force of contrast makes the comfort of yesterday the hardship of to-day. Those who are content to ibegin life well mvithin their means will be spared the painful experience of being unable to pay ) their way.
