"H e wants me to marry him and It seems to me I love him but there ere so many drawbacks He Is much older than 1 am. and I'm sure that he won't want to dance or go oui st all In a few years' time and I'm ton young to give op parties. Also Isu't really Interested In the things which Interest mo. And he's nearing middle age and he Isn't a real success In life. Am I taking too big a chance mnrrylng a man who has no really brilliant future and who may be old before Fm thirty? I would love to marry him If only I could set my fears at rest" Well, dearie, your fears are doomed to remain wandering restless spirits If yoo want them lolled by me. You haven't the slightest chance of success In marriage with anybody If yoo go iDto the proposition In tbe frame of mind Indicated by your que* tlon. Success In marriage as you may have heard some four hundred thou saud times before this—means com promise. And do I hear a word shoot compromise from your ruby-red lips? I do not. The only thing makes Itself dear to me Is this: That Isabel want* to have a good time even efter a few years o f settling down—that she re scuts Nat's not being Interested In her hobbles—that she wants to have enough money to live comfortably and Nat ought to supply the Internal rev enue. That’s all she wants Not a word about whether you're willing to do your part, child. Not a word about wanting to help Nat to make the success which haa eluded him through a rather dismal business career. Just the plain statement that you wnnt cash and a successful husband— and will Nat dot No, he certainly won't do for you. nor will any other poor mortal maD who needs a wife's comfort and sym pntliy and understanding nnd com­ panionship—not her Imperious de­ mands for mentnl nnd financial satis­ faction. You’ve got the best chance In the world of being happy with a man If you're willing to take the had breaks with the good. With that spirit In your heart you could stumble Into any one of half a dozen marriages and make a success of things: But If you're the wide-awake young self-sntlsfler, eager hands outstretched to take everything, eager lips forming the Immortal word “ Gimme,” you’re hound to bump Into a few snnga even though you marry the most perfect specimen In the world. Learn to think about what YOU can do to make your m arr'ige a success. (© br th* Bell Syndicate, too.)
