MARRIAGE? '
for this sad state of affairs. thil
curious dimsinees or the fabric of
modern love.
And perhaps, being a selfish
soul. a little vice which‘ie common
to both sexes in proportions of
flity-fltty, he wisely decides not to
risk it. . p
Also. he may be just a little
afraid of Miss Fair and Twenty
who is sldecomblng her world for
the most elliglbls of attractive
bachelors. Judging from the
muuine edvortlsmenm, the store
windows. and what he sees in the
flesh on parade. he can't be blamed
for thinking that the old bread
and cheese and kisses standard has
gone forever. and that Miss Fair
and Twenty think! in terms of
expensive cabarotshii guage silk

on the dress strap of one white

so. unmercifnlly on.
The high cost of loving a girl
these days is immense.
And our back-sliding young man
can't be blamed tor getting nerc
vouu and feeling that he wants
somethng a bit more lasting than
modern love it he has got to spend
all that to get it. and keep on
§ spending it to keep said love in a
good humour.
But. between you and me and
the wedding bells this is not the
whole truth.
The rest of it is that men are
afraid of marriage. but only in
the sense of marrying the wrong
girl.
When they are sure they’ve
found the right one. why! they
dash in and ask no questions about
it, and don't query the expense.
Marry they do. (even if they live
to repent the day). just when they
feel they want to and the girl is
willing.
And that‘s the why of that.
A man is only frightened of
marriage in so far as he is not
sure of himself.
And all the.cold comfort I can
give is to warn a loving miss that
she can take her young man to
the broad as daylight him. but
she can't make him take it it he's
not willing.
