No Two bern Beings Can Continue Forever Without Getting a Bit on Each Oth- er’s Nerves—A Timely Sep- aration May Save a Hasty Divorce. S £ 2 By Ropiie Irene Loeb. Gopyright, 1922 (New York Evening World) ‘by Press Publishing Company. WO people, a husbahd and wife who had been separated, both had an accident happen fo each of them on thé same night, although ore were miles apart. Since then, the husband in the hospital has sent for his wife and it is said they will Ukely patch up thelr di ff erences instead of getting a divorce as had been contemplat- ed. Another woman tells the court that her husband had the right to shoot her, which he id, because she had been too friendly with other men, and now that he is in trouble, it is likely they will both get together aguin. ‘These circumstances Tead about. sands of cases are there where people Qherarate with the purpose of parting forever, and again—people who might mained’ happy till the very end had they not been too impatient and waited.

O’Hara We Not Only Lead the World in Cows as it were, since he had humored hor so much, He proved his manliness by insisting that he had some rights and that he was not her slave, and 80 she lost him. Then she was too proud to ask him to come back, and he was too hurt, and thereby hangs the tragedy. They are both most unhappy and, I think, always will be. What most people need is not a divorce, but absent treatment—timely separation. There are no two human beings in the world that ean continue forever and ever without getting ‘a bit on each other's nerves. It is natural. Too much of anything is satiety and satiety is deadly. Too much loving is the very thing that kills love. Too much marriage ie the very thing that ends marriag The man or woman who is over married is he or she who is forever tied to the other and doesn’t breathe without that other, It is human nature. Two people are two people, and the individual will be one no matter how long poets pr about the two being ong. They can't go on living in the seventh heaven of delight or even in the depths of dis- satisfaction for any length of time. The most important thing is to get away from each other. It may be necessary to do so for six months, or a year or even longer, but in most cases where people contemplate di- voree, if they would only wait before they rush into it, it usually happens that they do get together again be- cause reflection and repenting at leis ure are the surest meags of resurrect- ing hopes and resigning one's s things that are inevitable After all, people who run to divorce courts in many cases go on the theory that great happiness can come to them ifthey break away and possibly try somebody else. After all is said and done, no person can expect more than the average amount of happi- ness. “Into each life some rain must fall. Some dry days must be dark and dreary,”’ ahd any notion that because they are not perfectly premely happy can get other way, by marrying anothe very foolsh idea. ‘The fact Is that that some one may happy or su they the Continentals and Steers—We Lead in Silk-Clad Calves. hosiery.” Only the richest stockings over here.

CROTON TELLS HIS OWN STORY. OTH Tom Reed and J. C, Biles saw that Sally and Billy Croton wished to be alone. Just the eve- ning before it had come out that Billy was engaged to a’girl at Round Lake and therefor had no right to ask Sally to become his wife. It was one of those early girl and boy school af- fairs, where everybody supposed that of course they were just made for but the moment Croton met Sally he knew this first love affair Was but a passing fancy. Billings saw the plight of the young and* volunteered to help’ them each other, couple out “Leave this matter to me,"’ he said “T've heard this ‘young woman is up-state having all sorts of cheerily; summer flirtations and it may just be she'll be glad to get rid of Croton Vil go round and see her mother Perhaps T can patch things up." The next evening Billings and Cro. ton suddenly appeared together and the widower gayly announced that Billy was a free man. How had they managed?
