His Theories Did Not Work
In Practice
|j By ESTHER VANDEVEER
Give us a trial order on
job printing.
In this age of skepticism regard
ing marriage there uiv thoso whoso
faith in it, cannot he shaken. They are
persons who have been happily mar
ried and about whom children have
sprung. To such marriage is their
whole world. They are not interested
In any one of the plans which are in
vented for experimental marriage or
easy divorce. To them (lie loss of a
single child Is an Irreparable misfor
tune. and to the family as a whole Hie
loss of either parent is the greatest ca
lamity that can befall them.
It is either thoso whose married life
has been a failure or those who have
never been married at all who are seek
ing substitutes for the wedlock of the
present day. The former usually take
the Initiative by advancing new ideas
concerning It: the latter, with a few
exceptions, are ready to jump iutu mat
rimony without consideration.
Among young unmarried persons in
clined to forethought in this matter
were Edward Ellis and Hobeeen Sayles.
Neither was disposed to take life, its
joys and Its sorrows as they came,
but must plan everything ahead, living
mutually interested In many problems
that their elders have found insoluble,
they were drawn together by their dis
cussions, and an attachment sprang up
between them. Ellis weighed bachelor
life against: married life and found Hie
advantages niiddis,advantages of equal
weight On the oue side there was
something lo tie to, on the other lone
liness that increased with old age. lie
granted that if a marriage turned out
happily the advantages outweighed the
disadvantages. If it was a failure it
was unhoarahle.
This view of it led Ellis just where it
has led a host of oilier thinkers oil the
subject— first, to guard against injudi
cious marriages; second, to render them
easily dissolved when the parties found
themselves not mated. He spent a
great deal of time on both these prob
lems nud at last solved them to his sat
isfaction. No couple, ho said, should lie
married without living for at least a
year in close proximity wllli each oili
er; no couple should he married with
out a prcuuptlul agreement that at tin*
option of either they should live apart
and both assist In securing a divorce.
Miss Sayles, whose views on the sub
ject of marriage had been Influenced
by the mntrlmonial troubles of an
aunt rather than u mental bent, toward
the discussion of abstruse problems,
agreed with Mr, Ellis as to tin* pre
cautions, hilt was "at sea" with regard
to the remedy. She shrank from the
breaking up of n family—something a
woman would lie more likely to feel
than a man since the maternal is
stronger than the paternal instinct. She
failed to see how the damage once
done could be remedied. Anyway, it
would leave a terrible scar.
However, if Ellis did not convert her
to his views as to separation, provided
marriage proved a failure, be finally
persuaded tier to consent to Ids pre
nuptial agreement. He was perfectly
satisfied with this, because she was a
girl who would never go back on her
promise. They lived near each other,
met frequently and by mutual agree
ment refrained from trying to convince
each other that they were far better
than they appeared. At least they
tried to appear what they were, but
whether they succeeded or not is an
open question.
At the end of a year of such inter
course they were married. Ellis’ pre
natal agreement ns to separation In
case their marriage proved a failure
was put lti writing. He gave tils bride
a copy nnd kept a copy for himself.
The Ellises lived togettier ten years
without nu.v more matrimonial dis
agreements than tlie average married
couple. During that period four chil
dren came to them, two boys and two
girls. Ellis remained In accord with
those cynical flings at marriage which
have been so popular of recent years.
When he went to the theater and heard
nil actor crack jokes illustrative of
what a husband must endure he would
applaud vociferously. lie read a novel
on the theme of domestic unhappiness
and recommended it to a friend. The
friend handed it back with the com
ment that neither he nor the world was
interested in ttie subject treated, add
ing that what was wanted were stories
of married comfort and family affec
tion. Ellis looked upon the critic ever
after as a man of very narrow mental
compass.
Twelve years after the marriage of
Ellis and Miss Sayles he one day hand
ed her bis copy of their prenuptial
agreement to a separation In case their
marriage proved a failure. It gave her
the surprise of her life. She bad lis
tened to bis jokes about what bus-
bands must, endure, but considered that
they sprang from a desire to be face
tious. She was aware of what the wife
must endure, hut during the term of
years slip had been married her good
sense had prevailed over the theories
of Inexperienced youth, and she had
come to consider them on the same
footing as other necessary evils and
that for the sake of both parents and
Children they must be passed over
with as little disturbance as possible.
Indeed, slie realized that It was far
more !ni|>nrt:irt that they be smoothed
over tlinit other necessary evils.
Her husbaiio said nothing when he
handed her tlit* paper, but she knew
what ln> meant. In ids prenuptial
agreement In 1 had not thought II in" ex-
Bury to mention children, lie had then
not had children ami was on the same
plane.in iliis respect as oilier bache
lors. children In a matrimonial separa
tion lie had nol considered.
Mrs. Ellis bore up wit limit flinching
under the blow. She said not a word
as to the separation except what was
necessary for making new plans. The
schools In the town in which she lived
were excellent, the children had nl-
wuys lived In tile house they occupied,
and it would be Inconvenient to move
them. She therefore told her husband
that if they wore to separate he would
have to do tlie separating: she would
remain at Imnu* with the children. He
had become snilleiently acquainted
with faintly requirements to realize
that the children would require their
schools and still more their mother. He
had always left them to her keeping
and did not relish tlielr care. So it was
agreed that he should go to live at a
distance. Not being actively occupied,
it made no difference where he lived.
Mrs. Ellis did nut ask her husband
tlie cause of ids desire, for a separation;
therefore he did not make it known.
'The trmit Is that ordinary family jars
working on a man whose brain was
full of matrimonial theories had led
him to take tile course he did.
It was agreed between husband and
wife that the fact that lie was to de
part permanently was not to be im
parted to tlio children. They were to
lie told Hint their father was going
away and his return was left indefinite.
His wife packed Ids belongings, and as
lie saw her doing the work ho won
dered how he was to get them un
packed, for to this site had always
attended, and lie had become absolute
ly useless in either packing or unpack
ing.
When till was ready Ellis kissed Ills
children, then turned to his wife. She
had turned away and was busying
herself putting some toilet articles in
his satchel, lie assumed that she did
not wish to be kissed, and it gave him
a pang. Hut It must be remembered
that he was ifot going away on ac
count of a special quarrel or culmina
tion of quarrels, but on general prin
ciples. He kissed all the children, and
they noticed ilint lie hugged them very
close.
"Why, papa," said little Ed. "you’re
crying."
The only reply was a closer hug. As
soon as the father had bidden good-
by to them he seized his satchel and
shot out of tile door without; looking
behind him. to the wonder of all ex
cept the mother.
There is no fool like tlie theoretic
fool. He can go over theories that
have grown up in ids mind, they be
coming more and more perfect to him
tlie while, and not see some glaring
defect that, to another " ill plainly let
down his whole fabric. Ellis’ fabric
was toppling before be left home. He
had no sooner got to his new quarters
and looked about him in a room in
which there were furniture and decora
tions. but uo living being, when it
collapsed utterly. That night was the
most miserable of his existence, lie
did not sleep, but lay awake trying to
form a plan whereby be might, go borne
and save Ids face at the same time.
Hirst he thought that he would lay
down a series of rules for the guid
ance of himself and Ins wife and if
she would agree to abide by them lie
would go home and try to liveiu peace,
lie even wrote out several of these
rules, but tore them up. lie thought
of various expedients, but none seemed
practical.
In the morning when all Ills plans
were discarded he wrote a note to his
xvlfe admitting his mistake and asking
whether if lie came home lie would be
received as before Ids departure. Mrs.
Ellis replied that he would be welcome,
adding iio condition or stipulation
whatever, lie had scarcely received
her note when he called an automobile
and told the chauffeur to drive, Irre
spective of speed limit, to his home.
Ills wife met him at the door and
threw her arms about his neck. To
gether they went into the dining room,
where the children were just finishing
tlielr morning meal. All rose and
jumped upon him. The older ones had
suspected that something was wrong
In the father’s going and were much
moved at ids sudden return. When
(lie greetings were over nnd the chil
dren on their way to school Ellis said
to ills wife:
“Where are those copies o' our pre
nuptial agreement?
Mrs. Ellis disappeared and soon re
turned with the articles inquired for.
Seizing them, tier husband tore them
into bits and threw them into the tire
burning on the hearth.
"Wife,” he said with animation, "It
Is my opinion that these newfangled
plans for trial marriages and easy di
vorces are for persons who cither can’t
get on together or have never been
married. For you and me they are ri
diculous.
“They will not help those who are
happily married, and, os for those who
are unhappily married. God help them!"
That was the end of Ellis’ matrimo
nial theories. When after that he and
his wife had a spat, according to an
agreement they made after his return,
they made it up before going to sleep
that night. This they found to be n
great advantage in many ways. First,
It elided the spat; second. It. got them
used to cutting short tlielr differ
ences; third, they soon became used
to considering such disagreements ns
mere explosions of nervous Irritation
and not worth explaining. At any rate,
they grew closer each year, and today
Ellis wonders how he could have been
sip-h a foot.
