Mutual Love ^2^ Is Necessary In Tylarriage By THOMAS WENTWORTH HIGGINSON. Novelbt Ä’ c 0 HE first essential f"r success in marriage, of course, is MUTLAI. love. It U 'ttld -.em unnece-sarx", thi- obvious proposition, were there not whole nations where marriage is regarded AS A t'ON'lRAt'T ALONE, whole fami- lie- where it is treated as such and at least one author of great ability. Ibsen, whose avowed theory is that marriages nro more contented and satisfactory where the element of ideal love i- left out. It is an honest source of pride to Americans that there is a larger pro portion of l.OY'E MARRIAGES in this country than elsewhere, this arising partly from the fact that the comparative newness of our civili zation leaves young p.'ople a little freer than where a more fixed social order prevails. WWW So far from the theory that marriage justly is to be re garded as a BUSI X ESS transaction, 1 should claim it to bo one of the b< -t means of securing happiness in married life that young poople not only should love each other warmly, but should BEGIN POOR, if possible, and thus have the discipline of mutual sacrifices and the pleasure of making their wav upward in prosperity bv gradual steps. It is one of the merits of human nature, or nt least of American nature, that a young girl may lie brought up to every luxurv and still, after marrving the man she loves, may take a positive delight in sacrificing EOR I11S SAKE all her previous wavs of living, and she will d' honors of the log cabin as if it were an ancestral hall. r. r r The most difficult thing, in my opinion, in married life is the har monizing of tempers, since, while many people have no opinions worth mentioning on any subject, the humblest or most ignorant can set up a temper. Nothing can deal with tempers except CONSCIENCE AND TIME. I have known young married couples with whom it was un pleasant to be in the house during the first v ar of their marriage, and vet habit <>r sheer necessity made their society tolerable within two years and positively agreeable in five. tt K *t The presence of children is a help to this compatibleness as being the one possession absolutely shared ami NECESSARILY AC CEPTED by each parent. Another great aid to the harmonizing of tempers indeed, something priceless as a permanent rule is to study mutually what may be called the equation of preferences that is, to form a habit of considering, when husband ami wife differ about any matter, which of the two really has the MORE REASON TO CARE \BOUT IT. Thus it may sometimes make little difference to the rife whether breakfast is early or late, while a late breakfast may cost the husband his morning train, or a carriage may bo an important matter to a wife, with her skirts to take care of, while it may make no serious difference to the husband whether he walks or rides. IT SURELY IS BETTER THAT ONE SHOULD MAKE A LIT- TLE SACRIFICE on any matter than tliut the other should make a frr greater one. K (t MANY A HOUSEHOLD JAR WHICH WOULD HAVE LEFT PR0- LONGED STINGS BEHIND IT. IF MADE A MERE TEST OF WILL AND PERSISTENCE.

BRADFORD. Mayor of Brockton. Man. MAN'S interest in liis city government »boultl bet next to hi* intereat in hi* church. 'Hie time is coining when the ethics of politics is going to be tnnglit IN THE SCHOOLS. Civil government is an excellent itudv, but I hold that we should go farther and teach our bovs ami girls something of the practical side of things which make for good HOME LAWS and which will give 11s the model city of the future. The idea of installing p< rmanent voting booths in the various school buildings I think is a good one, and the Brockton teachers have agreed with me. It gave the children a chance to see a verv important phase of their city government IN PRACTICAL OPERATION. Mam business men have the idea that poliii s is something be neath tlieir standard, that a man lower him-elf hen he goe* into a raiiipaign. A more mistaken conception of gentility never existed. POLITICS SHOULD BE NEXT TO A MAN’S RELIGION. WHAT BROCKTON AND EVERY OTHER CITY NEEDS IS A QUICKENING OF PUBLIC INTEREST.
