Why Many Marriages Fail
BV IIKATIIICK FAIRFAX
A very clever young lawyer recently
informed me that he would not marry
until he had an Income of SIO,OOO a
year and a big nest-egg to tide him
over the possible loss of some impor
tant client's patronage. This extrava-
Kant viewpoint is fairly characteristic
of our times. Coming: from the lawyer
to the most inmercantlle life, and so on
down to the day worker, the standard
of the income upon which one may
safely marry gradually decreases. But
modern standards of what a young
couple can start out on are vastly dif
ferent from those of our parents' day.
* Girls are trained to demand luxury
as an integral part of their life. Men
have accustomed themselves to think
of women as lilies of the field who
toil not, but who, by the elegance of
their raiment, suggest the prosperity
of the man who is paying for it.
No wonder modern marriages are
so frequently failures. No wonder
married men of 45 are seen trailing
around outside their own homes. No
wonder women old enough to know
better are found feverishly pursuing
attention and admiration. Marriages
that are based on love may go on the
rocks. But when love is denied and
the heart is starved that a certain
standard of aflluence may be reached,
the resulting marriage is bound to go
on the rocks.
Ami the Heart 4 hnnaea
By the time the young lawyer has
reached the t 10,000 standard he sets
himself: when the businessman ac
quires the $5,000 he insists on; or by
the time the clerk has risen to the
SI,OOO he thinks necessary, one of two
things has happened. Either the heart
denied its natural heritage of love.
• marriage and a home satisfies itself
on unworthy emotions, or emotion de
nied atrophies and the once warm and
loving nature settles into a mold of
cold calculation.
The girl who doesn't love a man
enough to live with him in a small
Hat and do her own work, even though
she is used to a mansion and three
maids to wait on her. does not know
the meaning of "for better, for worse."
The woman who is not sufficiently in
terested in her husband's life work to
help him do it by sharing his life's
burdens has no real, lasting love for
him. "For richer, for poorer" means
something. A millionaire's riches may
vanish over night, and then the woman
he only knew how to win by rich gifts
and luxury is all too likely to turn
from the hardiness of a life which never
knew love and is now denied the golden
rain that made it a land of milk ahd
honey.
If the modern man wants to have
a fair offering to bring his wife, let
him bring her love, high ideals, clean
living and sympathy—that will make
her feel rich indeed. But all the cold
dollars in the world will not buy her
deep feeling any lasting emotion such

ter with no deep, satisfying feelings

' them Women are afraid to marry
" poor men. and then by dressing badly
to he forced to throw away the line
of bemuty with which they caught
1 their fish.
til On a Paine I'romine
J The whole system Is based on false
r and mercenary standards. Luxury,
elegance and show have v>me to take
the place of heart, home aitd happi
ness. The poor young man who could
win love with his fresh, young emo
tions, and enthusiasm Is afraid to ask
for It. so he waits to marry until he
! can buy it. But what would once
have been a free gift to his lovable
young manhood turns out to be a very
poor purchase when his outworn and
1 cynical older years buy it.
1 Men spend their youth in grubbing
• for gold and they expend the young
' love and enthusiasm that ought to be
long to one woman in all the world on
a score of trilling emotions. When
they are ready for love they are no
i longer capable of it. They buy. and
i i are disappointed in the beautiful cold
• | eneilture who is the finished product
of their own mercenary social system.
■ So they turn around and buy them
i selves more shame—the cleverly slmu
! lated love of the woman whose busi
. , ness it is to pretend successfully emo
j tions she knows all about but cannot
I feel.
1 J The best of life ought to come
' j through love and marriage. Marriage
i ought to mean a safe hiurbor, sunlit
i I and placid. From this, man and wife
I , ought to put out together for occa
sional happy excursions into the big
> sea of life. And they never would be
I seen leaving the harbor if it were
I sunlit and happy and if love had
' piloted them into port.
> I A girl who really loves a, man will
' : gladly join her lot with his. and, act- I
ing as partner as well as wife, help
i him to succeed. This is one of the
greatest bonds to make wedlock happy
as well as holy, and one of the biggest
ties that bind man and wife together.
No man has a right to set himself a
' coldly mercenary standard of the
amount he must have on which to
marry. No man has a right to deny
' the girl he loves a chance to work
by his side amd sacrifice for his sake.
In loyal love all through life he can
more that) repay her. But if he cheats
her of her right to love instead of
luxurious support and himself of a
chance at really being loved, there is
no way of ever making up the loss.
WITH HIGH orROUND NECK
A New and Youthful Blouse that car.
be Finished in Two Distinctly
Different Way*.
By MAY MANTON
8499 Loose Blouse for Misses and
Small Women, 16 and 18 years.
Ko style ever devised was more essen
tially youthful than the loose fitting
basque, and here is one with sash over
the back that is exceedingly attractive
and becoming, yet perfectly simple at
the same time. It can be made with
sleeves of a different material or of the
same, and it can be worn with skirt to
match or over a different one for velvet,
satin and the like are worn over serge,
broadcloth and similar materials, and any
single design that can be put to so many
uses is surely a valuable one. There is
a growing tendency toward the high
neck, and the roll-over collar in com
bination with the sauare chemisett*
that is shown in the smaii view is new and
attractive, but the finish shown on the
figure is equally correct and which is bet
ter depends entirely on which is more
becoming. Long 'sleeves are liked this
: season, but they are not the only ones,
and these can be cut to three-quarter
length if preferred.
For the i6-year size will be required
- yards of material 37 inches wide, 1
. yards 36, or IH yards 44 with ILj yards
27, Vp yard .36 or H yard 44 for sleeves
• and collar, wtth 7 yards of braid.

5 in sizes for misses 16 and 18 years of age.
. It will be mailed to any address by the
j Fashion Department of this paper, on re
ceipt of ten cents.

FARMERS TURNING
TO AUTOMOBILES
Seven Per Cent, of the Grangers
Said to Own Machines For
Pleasure or Marketing
Figures compiled by L. H. Wible,
chief of statistics of the State Depart
ment of Agriculture, from reports
made to him from every county indi
cate that seven per cent, of the farm
ers in Pennsylvania own automobiles.
It is estimated by him that at least
15,000 automobiles are owned on •
farms and they are employed not only
for getting about to make purchases
and for pleasure, to go to church and
| meetings, but for marketing and for
hauilng purposes It is bis belief
that this year will see a big Increase
,in the number of automobile"! owneci
Iny farmers, who are setting good
prices now and for whose use many
I makes of cars arc being manufac-
I tured.
The summary of the reports re-
Iceived up to the first of the year also
conveys the interesting information
that the sheep industry has been de
clining, the estimated number of sheep'
in the State being now 749,360 as
against 1,102,000 ten years ago. The
bulk of the sheep are raised in the
western counties where it Is declared
that dogs are responsible for much
of the loss.
The condition of horses and live
stock Is reported to be generally un
der the average, although some west
ern counties show slight gains. This
situation is declared to be due to "the
poor pasture during the fall months,
the scarcity and bad condition of the
water and the severely cold weather
that has continued since the housing
of the livestock for the winter.
In commenting upon s crop condi
tions L. H. Wible, the statistician,
says: "Reports show that nearly one
half of the farmers of the State are
using lime for agricultural purposes
and the tendency is to use still more."
Wheat Is declared to be showing an
improvement and to have stood the
winter very well, while the corn situ
ation is summed up as follows: The
1914 crop of corn was not only very
large, but well matured and of splen
did quality. Approximately 89 per
cent, of the corn will be fed on the
farms producing it. Only about six
per cent, of the corn in the State re
mained unhusked on January 1 and
would undoubtedly have been if
It had not been for the severe weather
which suddenly set in about the first
of December and has prevailed since 1
that time."
Allies' Bill For Year
May Total $34,000,000,000
| Paris, Feb. 8. —Jean Finot in his j
j Revue arrives at a Brand total of
; $34,000,000,000 as the final bill the
! allies would have to render to Ger
i many, Austria and Turkey in case the
I latter were defeated after a year's
warfare.
Taking Paul Leroy-Beaulieu's estl
| mate of $10,000,000,00 as the direct j
i outlay of all the belligerents for four j
I months of hostilities, and assuming j
(that tiie war will last, n year, Moil- j
j siur Finot. arrives til >'■ sv.iii of more j ,
I than 514,000.000.001) : the direct ex- , i
! penditurss of the .allies a'.one. To i,
| sums already oxpen ' •! must be added ,
i the value of properly devastated by
the Invasion, and sir.-'* he arrives at a i
total of nearly $50,000,000,000.
To this should .still he added, he
considers, the value of lives lost '
in the ronflict. Taking: the French
tribunal's valuation and supposing 10
per cent, of the full strength of the
allied armies to !>e killed, he believes ;
this item would bo more than
$4 000.000,000.
He said if the allies were victorious
they probably would find Austria and ;
Turkey Incapable of contributing much j
toward the liquidation, and that Ger
many alone would have to foot the|
i bill. He believed she was fully capable j
of doing so, since in 1913 the German j
economists estimated the fortune of i
the empire at 520.000.Q00.000.
