The Education of
Marriage
By ELINOR MARSH
* =3
Jim Hawks was an ironworker. lie
■was twenty-two years old and had a
prospect of a long life ahead. He was
a hard worker and very saving, his
idea being to get a nest egg—for na
ture leads us all to build nests, and
man can't do it as the birds do, by
getting together a few straws and oth
er such material. He must have mon
ey to pay for his domicile.
Young persons—very young persons
—don't look upon matrimony with the
misgivings of their elders. Jim's idea
of a home was a comfortable house
with a very nice wife in it, or at least
a suit of rooms. He was to own the
house and the wife and the furniture.
The wife was to be there to minister
to his wants and comforts.
Jennie Owens was the daughter of
a widow. Jennie was twenty years
old. She was a high school graduate
and aimed partly to support herself
and her mother, who had a little in
come, by stenography and typewrit
ing. But Jim Hawks came along,
talked very sweetly to her and in time
induced her to marry him. Both want
ed a home; both wanted to fulfill the
destiny nature intended for them.
This was all very well, but neither
had been educated to matrimony.
Jim had his preconceived nations of
what his wife should be to him. and
she had her preconceived qotions of
what he should be to her. As soon as
the honeymoon ended these preconceiv
ed notions began to clash. Jim's habit
of saving money did not grow less with
two to provide for. He kept control of
the cash and pinched his wife for
mall expenditures. He had not been
used to considering the requirements
of any one except himself and needed
practice to become used to considering
those of another. He was not exactly
what his wife expected to find him,
and she thought that In certain re
spects she might make him over. She
remained In their three rooms all day
and when evening came needed a
change of scene, to say nothing of
recreation. Jim worked hard all day
and when evening came desired to
tMft— going out required some

when it was necessary to spend money
he was used to spending it on himself.
These things caused scraps, and the
scrape gradually grew to be quarrels.
Jennie usually had the right of the
question, but did not know how to use
it so as to impress her husband that
he was in the wrong. While he was
wrong In trying to dominate her, she
acted oneducatedly.
One evening Jennie desired Jim to go
with her to an evening party given by
one of her friends. Jim wouldn't go.
She said she would go alone and asked
him to come to bring her home. He
made no reply. She went, and since
be did not come for her she remained
at her friend's all night She should
have gone home early the next day,
but Instead spent the day and the night
with her mother. On returning the
next day she found her home deserted.
Here was a break between two per
sons who. if they could have been pre
pared for their parts, might have got
over this early married period, have
gradually become used to each other
and settled down into a happy married
life. What a contrast between this
antagonism and the mutual depend
ence of ten or twenty years later!
Jennie made an effort for a recon
ciliation. but sincg she did not accom
panyTt~by a eonTesslon that s"he, and
she only, was in the wrong Jim paid
no attention to her pleadings. Then
her mother advised her to let him
alone. If he ever came to realize that
he was giving up that which was pleas
ing and ennobling for his preconceived
notions of what a wife should be to
him he would very likely conquer his
pride and return to her. If not she
could do no more than she had done
and the matter must adjust itself or
remain unadjusted without any fur
ther action on her part.
For awhile Jim persuaded himself
that he had acted the part of a strong
man in asserting himself and in re
fusing to live with a woman who, a 9
he expressed it, would "take the bit
in her teeth and run away with every
thing." But he had been very happy
for awhile in his home with his wife.
His mother had taken his part in his
disagreements with his wife, and he
went to live with her. But he had
reached an age a man craves
his own rooftree and hearthstone, and
he was not satisfied He met with an
accident in his work. and. though his
mother cared for him tenderly, he
pined for his wife. Between her and
him was a deathly silence. Jennie did
not try to win him back to her. He
wqa A ynan_of strong will and must go

could last unless he became satisfied
that his wife had rights as well as
himself.
One day Jennie heard a click at the
gate and, looking out through a win
dow, saw her husband coming. "With
beaming eyes and a smile she went to
meet him.
"Jennie," he said, "I treated you
brutally. Will you forgive me?"
"It was all my fault," she replied.
"You'll have to stand a lot If you
come back to me. I've a bad temper."
"I'll try to correct my faults."
There were quarrels after that be
tween them, but Jim made a rule that
they must be made up the day they
occurred. In time they came to regard
differences on the same footing as oth
er trials and the sooner mended the
better.
Keen Soentad Deer.
Under the most favorable atmos
pheric conditions deer can scent a man
at the distance of a mile and a half.
If he is smoking the range may be In
creased to two miles. They have been
known to refuse to cross a man's track
more than four hours after he had
passed, but rain may destroy the scent
In ten minute®.—St James* Gazette.
Not After the Beet.
"She says she wouldn't marry the
best man on earth. Plenty of girls say
that. Idle talk, eh?"
"Oh, I don't know. Some girls actu
