forgotten though he should live to lbe as old as Noah. '

‘ "Mercy on us!" he exclaimed to his first officer as the two men leaned over the ship's rail, fascin- uted by a couple of mermaids that played about in the water not more than a hundred-yards from where ilie Peggy lay at anchor.

\\'hile captain and mate watched. the pair of sou-maidens left off playing and swam right up to the side of ihc ship. And this is what the mcii saw:

Two bFO\\’ll-0_\'(‘(l hcnutics that nl- mosi knocked lilPil‘ eyes oiii and made their hearts skip a fcw beats. Butli had long dark silken trcsscs

itiiut hung in heavy niasscs over

ithcir shapely shoulders. while tlicir

‘lovely faces were rounii and small

‘as dolls!

I Indeed, so great was their beauty that the men found it difficult to remove their glances even for a

.slngle moment. Captain Cummings,

[being a married man with a large family. took time out to obscrvo what effect the sea-sisters were

ihaving on his first officer-the

iniate was single. It was even ivorse lthan he at first suspected. Bcsitlc

lilfll stood the male complctcly iiii- idcr thc spell of lhc meininids, who now werc winking their sly little eyes and beckoning to him with their tiny hands.

The captain watched them until they dived beneath the ivater; and then, full of strange mutterings, left his vessel for a stroll about town. When he left the ship his niatc was still leaning ovcr the rail, his eyes glued to the spot where the mermaids had disap-

peared.

Late that same afternoon Cap- tain Cummings returned to the Peggy to find the ioveslck mate in a very distracted state of mind. lt was obvious the follow had fallen hard for the sisters; but the cap. tain hoped that when they put to sea again all would be well. As for himself. well~he just had to dis- miss from his mind the entire epi-

\'i'hat ure ilie qualities to make such a marriage a

Practically anything can happen old friend of mine used to say, "You can't tell where your love falls." All of us have known marriages that seemed earmarked for the divorce court that were glori- ous successes. and we have seen other marriages that we would have sworn were made in Heaven turn out to have been made in licll. So there we are, matri- moninlly speaking, and it is folly to prophesy how any wedding is going to turn out. For to every rule laid ' down for picking oiii a husband or wife there are a hun- tired exceptions. Anti. after all. getting the right husband or wife is more a matter of taste than judgment.

Of course, we are uii traditionally sold io ihc theory that ihc mating time is youth, anil we talk a lot of drivel about boys and girls marry- ing and growing up together aiiii developing tho same tnsics and habits. but it is just luck whcn the young couple develop‘ along the same lines, us is provcn by the number of youthful marriages that go on the rocks.

ANSWER 1

MIDDLE AGE MATING IDEAL

On the other hand. the middle-age marriages are generally success- ful because mcn and women marry for companionship. They know how to adjust themselves to their matcs, and you seldom hear of them getting divorccs.

Now to ansucr your questions: Whether the disparity in age be- tucen a husband and wife is a fatal barrier to marriage depends, I think, uiainly upon sex. \\'hcnIa young girl marries an old man, it is almost invariably because of his money and the luxuries he can give licr. but ivhcn a young man marries uii uldcrly woman it is almost al- ways because he is hcr age spiritually, if not chronologically. think along ihc Sfilili‘ iincs. 'i‘hc_v have the same tastes and interests, and ilicy arc more congcniail than the man would hc with n debutante. Such a man has the moihcr complex and hc never tries to break Molli- ei"'s apron strings.

But why put a 15year limit on a woman's desirability as s wife? There are women who are has-beena in their teens, and others who are siill debutantes in their seventies. It depends altogether on the wo- man's pcrsonnlitv, and if she has the come-hither look in her eye. she will be a charmer whether she is 14 or 40.

And as for the qualities that make n marriage a success. they arc alivays eternally the same. Keep sugar in your hand and your husband will keep eating it, no matter what the difference in your ages.

I am a man of 39 who desires to gain from my wife freedom f time and mind lo provide for my family the necessities and a few of he luxuries of life. Due to the high cost of living my present job does net give the extra money we need, but I could make something on the side if my wife would not prevent my doing so. I am in demand as n musician and as an insurance representative and could make good money at both, but iheso activities call for late hours and are the cause of many unhappy scenes between my wife and me.

I am at my wits‘ end. as it is impossible to satisfy my wife and to gain any pence of mind. What shall l do‘?
