She must have health. She must have Intelligence and lack a bad temper. She must show by experience that she is capable of some sort of useful work, for idleness and happiness have never been on friendly terms. She must be accustomed to living in my station of life, If not, she would have to serve a term of real exper!- ence. She could do this by earning her own living for a time or by liv- ng with a class of people and under conditions similar to those that she might have to undergo as my wife. SHE MUST HAVE NO MONEY.
