however, is just as essential to the
old as to the young. Many old folks
have learned the value of Doan't

la the Absceace at Overpowering Leve
Dear Ulss Flo:
The question which I find so diffi
cult to answer for myself is whethei
1 shall marry a man for whom I have
only a casnei affection, or remain, an
old maid. I shall soon he thirty. I have
an excellent position and I - tore my
work. I enjoy the money I earn, and
the luxuries it brings me, aa only a
woman can whose family has always
been poor and whose girlhood was
devoid of all the gayety and happi
ness a girl craves.
I can truthfully say that I have
no desire to marry. When I see other
women shabby, overworked, wRh cry
ing. b&hies and grouchy husbands. 1
ftel that marriage has no charms foi
me, but 1 am afraid the day will come,
as it seems-to eoate-for ?tU-these oth
er women who do not marry?when
I will find myself a lonely old woman,
and wish I had married and had child
ren. C. M.
it does seem rather unfair, doesnt
it, that a woman has to choose be
tween marriage and. her career? When
a man marries he merely acquires s
home and a wife and children in ad
dition to the other" pleasures and In
terests of his work, but a woman u
ually has to sacrifice one or the other.
Only the exceptional woman as yet
egn manage both without breaking
on one Job or the oth
er.
As i matter o t tatst. there are wo.
men who have no need tor marriage?
who do not desire it, but who virtu
ally force themselves into it becaust
of their fear of betas an old maid or
of otd age loneliness.
But some or me loneliest; women
in the world today are married wo
im? w1tl> tlilli*fM?
The unmarried woman of today is
really a happy creature. She Is no
longer an old maid. She is a bachelor
girl, and her. life is often so full ano
interesting and useful that she is ut
terly happy and contented in her own
way.
A very spry, interesting old lady oi
(2 recently claimed that her principat
reason for not marrying was her in
tense horror of parting with her free
dom. .and of having her individuality
and gifts killed by husband and child
ren and circumstances. She Is <-onviu<
ed'that for her at least the only life
was single life, and she has absolutely
no regTeta for not having married.
All of this, of course, seems impos
sible to the wife and mother who has
reasoned herself Into a state of su
1 periority and has only pity for the un
married woman. She expresses ou
every possiDie occasion ner neiier tnat
' there is no work and no honor that
can recompense for the tragedy of not
having a child- This view is little
short o| insulting to the many gTeat
women whet have done everything and
hadjeverythlug btu_a chjld, and who
have made life worth living for other
women's children and found recom
pense in full for themselves.
" 'Were you in love,' tEere is no ques
tion as to which you should choose.
You would decide in' favor of marriage
and a tiny two-by-frmr house would
look better to you than the finest Job
in the world. To be sure, there woulu
be many times when you would find
marriage most trying, but having for
your very own the man you loved
would be sufficient compensation for
any hardship.
But as you are not in love, in m>
opinion it is a toss-up as to which
will prove the most satisfactory?sin-'
gle blessedness with a career, or mar
riags There is considerable charm
in both lots, and whether yon decide
on marriage or a career, there win
be times when you will regret with
all your heart the decision you made,
because it is human nature to believe
that everybody's lot Is easier than
your own.
