After the “home-coming" of the ‘eride and bridegroom so many condi- tions change and circumstances arise “that it takes the greatest skill and taet to keep right along at the same ogeit life started. Both husband and “wife should use every precaution to ‘keep the first year of their married life as happy and as closely in touch ‘welth-each others thoughts and in- [yr ‘as the honeymoon days. fA great many newlyweds start out in perfect step. Their lives are tuned to the same pitch. ‘They speak Det only with their tongues but with * Lowe eyes, their hearts, their souls. ¢ “then—tiké ‘a flash’ of thunder | from heaven—because the man is ¢ Worried about his busines’ affairs or “A Youngs wife troubled about the » gunning of her new home, they find They. are getting out of tune with each other. They cannot meet the “problems of life and still retain that j tenderness and kindness and: deep sympathy for cach other that drew them together in the beginning as imvand wife. Tt bas been wisely said, “The only | thing we Know about hu nature ae that it changes.” If a young j ¥ride is so taken up the first year of her married life with the care of “her home and the mixing of cakes jana planning cf daily menus that tghe forgets to keep up with current Sevents, forgets to read the new yooks, forgets to even pretend she CAtiterested in the work her has- a is doing, her husband is bound } “outgrow” her, He will think of her as “a dear little domestic thing” but not as a Mental companion, nét as the com- rade who strolled beside him during thoge first honeymoon days and dis- cussed all the problems of life with all the power and ability of a woman lof fifty. It Is true those very | problems and situations looked | niuch easier than they actually are, but the wife who wants to keep up with ber husband must learn to find time enough, somehow, to keep In- | terested in the very. things which |ship days and honeymoon days. Sometimes the mere fact /couples dance well together, that that together or enjoy the same style of literature is enough to take them to the marriage altar, But in the long run of married life theig tastes will | most likely change, | comes interested in the hea’ |Jects of life, his business, ancient history, collecting pottery or antique furniture—you never can tell what Wa bent, wilh be—but, yous can x ture it will be something entirely different from what it was at the beginning of his marriage. And -un- legs his wife is interested in his new tastes there is bound to spring up a big, gulf between them and we sa Mr. Middle-age has “outgrown” his wite. But man is not the only one who changes! Many women become in- terested in new thoughts and cults which the tired business man is not able to grasp. find that husband and wife are not in step but growing further and further apart every’ day of tholr lives, Starting out in step, both in- terested in the same things, is hot half as {ntportant as keeping up with each other all along the way of married Jife. The whole secret of Itv- ing happlly together year after year is for couples to’ change, together. Couples who have a few interests In common never outgrow each other.
