Will Marry Against Her Judg-
ment Because She is Curious-
EniTott Daily Gazette : Woman
a curious and pcculiarcreation. I have
been studying them for sixty years and
don't fully understand them yet.
They nre very near to us and very dear
to us, but very unlike in their devoti
onal nature; their love of the beautiful;
their long suffering under trial and ad
versity. They go w ili ng and eagerly
to their marriage r.l'.cr when thej'know
that theirs is all the ;,'"rii and theirs ta
be all the pain and c.;re and grief that
inevitably comes to a wife and mother.
I liavv" pondered over all this, and If I
was a woman and had only a man's in-
stincts I would not marry any man on
earth. It is the God given maternal
instinct that persuades and forces a
woman to marry.
She will launch her boat upon the
stream and take her chances to jump
the waterfalls. She does not realize
the force of this maternal instinct but,
it impels and controls her.
A man loves a woman and marries
her, but there is not a particle of pa-
ternal instinct influencing him. The
young mother hugs her first born to
her bosom and is happy. The young
father lakes the advent of the child as
a matter of course, but not of choice
The earth must be peopled by honor-
able marriages. Milton says: "Hail
wedded lov<—true source of human
offspring." And again he says of mar-
riage, "It is the sum of earthly bliss."
Other cynical old poets make sport of
it and call it a "lottery". "An institu-
tion where those who are out wish to
get in. and those who are in wish to get
out." Some of our modern poets ask
the question, "Is marriage a failure'."
and discuss it in prose and poetry
Willi, suppose that it is, what is to be
done about it. Who is going to stop it?
How shall the earth be peopled when
we nil die off? j- '!'• M.
