“Perfect Love” With Youngster is Due for Tragic Disillusionment, When the Flare-up of Youth Dies Out and Leaves Them With All They Cared for in the World Lost Forever

There is a new novel called “Marriage in Gotham" by Ishbcl Ros: that every man and woman approaching the ago of lndiscretion should Primarily its theme i: the disastrous effect that the divorce of their parent: ha: upon adolescent children, but sharing interest with this i: the picture it paints of the tragedy of Indian summer romance in those who are old enough to know better.

The heroine of the story i: a woman who i: intelligent, beautiful and good in the best sense of the word. She has wealth, social position, a. son and a daughter about to ﬁnish college, a dis- tinguished husband who, in his way, is devoted to her and who give: her everything but ardent love. Fbr twenty-five year: she and her husband live along placidly and happily together, he absorbed in hi: work, she in her children and her clubs and . her many social activities, and then suddenly she falls wildly, madly, passionately in love with a boy young enough to be her son and proceeds to wreck not only her own life but her whole family.

read.

She throws her cap over the windmill without a moment’: hesitation. She tramples in the dust all the tenets by which she ha: lived. Neither right nor wrong, nor her children, nor her husband, nor scandal, nor any- thing else matters. She l: starved for youth, for thrills, for burning, pulsing love, and she grabs ruthlessly at what the lad offers her as a famlshed woman would food.

The husband divorces her and she marries the boy, and then begins the pitiful inevitable end of her dreams. She loses her home, her child- ren, her place in society, and she find: that love isn't enough to pay for these, as she had fondly imagined. Worse still, she finds that she has lost her boy-lover because when the excitement of the adventure is over and he finds himself tied to an aging woman he wearie: of her.

Youth calls to youth and he turns from her to the girls of his own age. Then ‘come: the woman‘: martyrdom, of an old wife trying to live up to a young husband, trying physically to look his age by hair dyeings and face-llftlnga, by massaging sagging flesh to try to make it firm again. Trying to keep spiritually young and interested in the things, a boy ls in- terested in. ' ‘frying to go hi: pace with weary body and aching feet. Suf- fering the torture: of the damned in an effort to perform a. miracle that no woman can work, of recapturing her lost girlhood.

And finally the woman realizes-and that lenowledgo i: the bittoreet of all-that what she thought was a great and consuming love was noth- ing but a little flare-up of physical desire that has burned itself out, and that at middle age we are no longer capable of a grand passion. She l: as bored with the boy as he is with her and all that ahe desires is to crawl back to her husband and try to rebuild the home that she pulled down in her folly.

I have told thi: story at length because we see it happen’ lg about u: every day in real life, and I hope that it: lesson will stay the feet of many a man and woman who at middle age are starting out on a quest of rom- antic adventure.

For they seldom find it, and, if they do, it. turns to Dead Sea fruit on their lips. They discover that there is no bridging of the gulf between the generations over which love may walk. They realize at last that they only befool themselves when they think that they are younger than they really are, and that the gayety, the laughter, the high spirits that they have to pump up i: like the artiﬁcial respiration that i: induced in a corpse. ‘

Yet this hunger of the 40s for romance i: a very pitiful thing. It i: Nature's last plea for a final bite of angel’: food. Men and women realize suddenly that their youth is nearly gone, that soon their attraction for the opposite sex will be gone. They may in their hearts still be faithful to their mates, but Mary i: getting stout and grizzled, and John has lost his ﬁgure and hi: hair and their life together ha: become humdrum and ﬂat and stale, with never a thrill in it or a kiss that isn't a ﬂabby peck of duty. ~ ~

And John and Mary feel that they must have one last ﬂing before it I is too late. So they imagine vain thing: about themselves, that they are still a mere girl and boy, still capable of feeling and inspiring the love that their middle-aged wife or huaband i: incapable of giving.

And then it is that they do the thing: that wreck their lives and that of their families. Mary gets into a scandal that drags her through the slime of a divorce court and makes her children ashamed of the mother who bore them. Or John swap: of! his faithful old wife for argold-digger young enough to be his daughter. And then, when it is too late, they

Now the Kea is one of the most inquisitive birds in existence, and he wants to investigate everything new. Moreover, he is by nature a friendly creature, and, until ex- perience tauzht him that man was the last creature in the world to be trusted, he had no fear of human beings, and would freely enter camps.

Many kinds of Parrots are fond

of fat when they can get it, and the Kea is no egrccption. At the sheep- killing stations he found all he wanted and more, waste, and so fond did he get of it

thrown out a as

that he returned day after day with all his family and friends, and so acquired a great liking for this new food, and who can blame him? The Kea, being a very intelligent bird, was soon to realise the fact that this new food which man had taught him to like was to be ob. tained, not only in the neighbour- hood of slaughter-houses. but walk- ing about in the paddocks and on the mountain slopes.

Sheep Attacked and Killed And, from the evidence oi’ the farmers, there seem: little doubt that in certain districts Keas do actually attack and kill sheep in order to obtain their fat. But every Kea is not n sheep killer, and many are found right up in the moun- tains where lhere are no sheep, and Whﬁre they cannot do any harm.

both ﬁnd that you cannot put new wine into old bottles, or a boy‘: or girl's heart into a middle-aged man or woman.

Perhaps for youth love i: enough, but it t: not enough for age. Then the blood ha: cooled and nothing aeem: so desirable as it once did. Habit is stronger than desire, and on: find: more happiness in one’: comfort and easetand in the respect of one’: friends than in one‘: emotions.

Wise, then, are those who watch theirsteps when they reach the dangerous 40: and who satisfy their hunger for romance on homemade bread and butter instead of nibbling on forbidden fruit.
