Raising Another‘: Children ls Difficult Task

A woman is going to marry a widower with two adolescent chil- dren who have been living with their grandmothersince their mother l death. The father is particularly devoted to the elder of the cbildreh. who is a beautiful and attractive young girl of 16, and tho prospectivs stepmother frankly admits that she is consumed with jealousy of her and wants to know l! I do not. think that she should tell her fiance thst. she is not willing to have the children live with them after they are married and that he mult lllve them With their grandmother. .-

Well, it she feels that way about tbs children, tho only decent thing to do is to ltntc her position un- equivocnlly on the subject and live the widower a chance to choose between her and his children. Otherwise shs will bring misery down on the hcuds o! all concerned.

Of course, it will be a terrible surprise and shock to the father to find out that his beloved children are regarded as n fatal handicap to him. lt never enters his dear dumb head that the more a woman lovcs hcr husband, the more she is apt to resent the first wife, who had his youth nnd romance and all pertaining to her, and that there are no sirens of whom she is so passionately jealous as she s of his ctdidren. Every dlsplsy of affection he makes to them, all he little petting that would bc so precious to her if shown to her own children.
