In times of estrangement or dim- ulty the husband should appear for the wife, the wife for the husband. Each should study the other side. But these are things we all know. Let us turn to this simple story of a happy marriage. SHE NEVER NAGS HER HUS- BAND AND BOTH ARE HAPPY. Dear Madam: I am happily mar- ried, and married very muoh for he 4id not, have any faith what- ever in women. He had deen married twice, both times finding the woman untrue. I grew to care for him and told him he would live to change his opinion. Both of us were practically without money, but we were married shortly after. At first he was rather indif- ferent, then followed @ period of in- sane jealousy, which calmed down however, when he saw it was with- out cause. We have been married almost four years now, and are ideally happy. I have always tried to remember my husband is a human being with the frailties civen to mankind and not a saint, - have faults myself so I cannot ex- pect him to be perfect, and besides & perfect man would be such a bore. He is the soul of truth and honor I know I could trust him to the farthest ends of the earth. I have always tried to make things @s pleasant and cheerful as possi- ble for him, and have always put bim before myself, which has only served to make him the more un- selfish, I have tried to remedy my own faults instead of sitting down and railing about his, whioh latter reason, I is the answer to the success of our marriage. We are very comfortably situated from a financtal standpoint and have an tnfant son whose presence has helped to bind us more closely together, I feel I have one of the kindest, truest and best husbands in the world, ALR. The voice of the cynic is heard again, howeyer, in ¢wo letters from men. W! following communications: TORY AFTER ALL. Dear Madam: Matrimony, for a man, at its very best, means halving hie pleasures and doubling his ex- penses, What is !t in its normal or average condition? The united (?) couple spend their lives lke two lovers, in this sense only: They are always quarrelling! Perhaps the best definition of matrimonyWas uninten- Nhat's Good far Papa's Baby?

It contains greater wisdom than many more pre tentious sayings. This young wife has succeeded in doing what very few human beings accomplieh. Most of ue go around and around in the little circle of our own egotion all our lives, tramping and turning listlessly about in the little cage of self, in which each conscious bit of the Infinite is imprisoned. The story of any marriage is simply the narra tive of the union of two of these im- prisoned spirits and their reactions upon each other. And in the usual marriage the husband {s so busy try- ing to keep his wife up to his ideal of her, and the wife feels such a dedi- cation to the improvement of her husband's mind, manners and morals, | that neither has time for that noble spirit of reformation which begins at) i When we studied elementary astronomy we learned that because of! ite canny rotation on its axis there is one side of the moon that remains forever {fvisible to us, and so, generally speaking, because of our per- petual rotation on the axis of self there is one side of life that remains forever unknown to us—to a woman, the man’s std ; to a man, the woman's examining the pupits as to their knowledge of the catechiam. The one father asked the girl, “What is matri- 2 of temporary torment to prepare the affficted souls for Heaven.” “No, no, you foolish girl,” the priest ex- claimed, “that t@ the definition of purgatory.” The other father eal “Let her alone, Tom, she may be right. What do you or I know about it?” ONE WHO HAS BBEN THERE. COURTSHIP TOO EXPENSIVE, HE BALKS AT MARRIAGE. Dear Wfadam: I certainly do ap- prove of marriage, but if the majority of the feminine sex would realize conditions nowadays and try to learn @ method to make ends meet per- haps there would be more marriages than there are at present. I was en- eoged, but regret that I_was com- pelled to break away on acoount of the unnesessary extravagance on the girl's part. She would not realize Yhe future, Is #t any wonder we have so many separations, divorces, &o.? Can you show me the girl who te not extravagant, who can dispmy economy, who understands domestic science and knows the value of @ dollar? If there 1s only one on the market I would like to know her. Lt TRAIN YOURSELF FOR THE EX- IGENCIES OF MARRIED LIFE. Dear Madam: My sixteen years of married life have taught me that the Sreatest misfortune in marriage 1s misunderstanding between husband, wite and children. I have a splen- i wife and two loving daughters, and we are all happy; but at the expense of much patience, tolerance and agony. I do not write this as a poet wishes to have it, but intro- spectively. Therefore, I would ad- | Monish the young couple betore oon- templating marriage (not after) to cultivate self-control, patiende, and | to repay ill-thoughte and errors | with kindness, | Choose for your mate the opposite in complexion, temperament and ideals as near as possible, Above all, do not expect your wife and children to make you happy, but within thy- | self abides that omniscient spark of love and happiness that shall over- flow the home. I write this not to discourage the young folks but to show them the other alde of the pio- ture. “Love and marri are the only things that will pay 10 per cent, to the borrower and lender both.
