of Harley-street, Daily Ex- press family doctor, on MARRIAGE
I'M hoping, Mr. Smith,
that you will be one of those people who begin married life in such a way that it won't end in the tra- gedy of divorce.
"Never forget that it's your duty to protect your wife,"

If she's a normal woman she'll And if you've got children, it's a worse tragedy still: for your want to have children, and if failure is not only effecting you she loves you she'll want your and your wife (and both of you children to be hers.
So I don't think I'd marry, if have had some say in it); It's affeeting the lives of your I were you, with the idea that children, who've had no say in the physical side of marriage it and who will never have both has nothing to do with children. their parents together again.

A.
SOUND piece of ad-f vice is, give and take. When you really are married, Mr. Smith, you've simply got to sink your bachelor point of view. You are no longer a one- mum business. You can't (and) you jolly well mustn't) act as if you were.
You'll have to consult Mrs. Smith about your expenditure;| you'll have to talk over with her any invitations you receive.] And you'll have to be prepared to give way, whenever—you! realise that she's right...

more you do it willingly in your carly married life the easier it becomes.
Somehow I believe that sel- fishness wrecks more marriages than any other single factor.
WHAT about the length of your engagement? Well, I suppose a long or a short! engagement is largely a matter : of the individual people con- cerned.
You shouldn't, of course, rush into an agreement which is tol don't! last your lifetime. So

There's such a lot to do, my dear chap, before you marry. And there are two of you to be considered.
On the other hand, don't, un- less you've got to, make your engagement so long that it leads to both of you getting a little irritable.
You see, if you both want very much to be married to each other, you're going to-natur-! ally enough-spend all the spare time you can in each other's company. And that's a little trying to both of you-if the' engagement lasts months for even years).
WHAT next? You should
be as fit as you can before you marry. I'm assum- ing you know all the duties which you're undertaking--and that you realise your wife has her rights too.
You're a man, Mr. Smith, and your wife is marrying aman, and if you want to be happy you'll never forget that it's your

IT'S a funny thing, but I'm certain that you'll double your real happiness if you have to sacrifice something in order to change Miss Brown into Mrs. Smith. I suppose this humans because we is, really never appreciate something we

Yes, I shall be very glad to make Miss Brown's acquaint-

Anything else? Is it better to marry on a small income or wait until it's bigger! Dence. pends, of course, on its actual size.
