"Parents demand a great deal
"'* of ` "tlfer"t prospective sons-in-law,
but 'how few mothers train. their.
eke 03•101ters to be good wives? They
must know from experience how
necessary it is that a bride know
how to cook and keep house,"
Writes. a ;disillusioned bride-
groom. "Mothers can't expect
m'Y d6les when they haven't even
taught their daughters to live on
an allowance; a bride should
know how little a. dollar buys
these days. Many young hus-
bands, fresh from their mothers'
well-run homes, get the shock of
their lives when they see the dis-
order in theirnew flat and have
to eat the boardinghouse,, fare
they're served' there.'?

one By Mirrors
Some of the younger and mor
superstitious ; Rustiane peasan
girls of to -day still amuse them
,selves . each June trying to dis
cover by mirrors what kind o
husband they :will! Have whe
they are old enough to marry.
_When her parents have gone t
bed, a girl will sometimes sit a
one o'clock k in the. morning n;gbe
tween two large' mirrors, afte
placing a, candle on. each . side
She then eagerly watches unt
she can see, twelve reflecte
lights...
If the Fates are propitious, sh
confidently expects„ to see 'th
husband she desires portraye
in the glass before her. In pre
War sRtfssia hundreds v of girl
claimed that they had ,"identi
fied" their future liusbancas b
this strange method,
Another method of diviitatio
still practised occasionally in re
motes parts of :Russia, it's said
is for a girl, with her parents
consent, to have supper, said fo
,two. '
If she's lucky; the•apparitz,on'
" hf the future husband' will' som
and sit. down ;,beside her, bu
for this to happen the girl must
ndt divulge io=anybody but her
parents that she is trying to look
into •the future.
In the ,days• of; the Czars it was
quite common in winter for a
husband -seeking grrl' or i'ikoman
to take a candle and, melting
the wax, pony` it tln'' the 'snow.
• Then sshe would try to discern
in the hardened substance the
likeness -of the man she was to
marry.

Why? "I'm afraid that the etc:

"And I want to live to e ripe old

The girl sued hint for breach.
of promise, Awarding her heavy
damages, the judge told this
young American busiltessman:
"You seem to forget that the girl
you promised to marry may .have
wished to be your widow!"
Another girl — in Illinois
won a breach of promise action
although the young man with
whom she had been friends pro-
tested that he had never pro-
posed to her,
The court held that the fact
that he had posted her a news

breach of promise and alriimi=
lar suits. Violation of the Bill
became a felony punishable by
fines up to $5,000. Several other
American states have also passed
similar Bills.
How old is breach of promise? ..
Legally, breach actions date from
about 1753, but there's a record
of one in northern Italy in 1540.
And — believe it or not, girls•!
it was a man who started it,.
He was a Marquis and: he sued
a beautiful young widow, de-
claring that she had accepted
hint then recanted.
When: the widow was cited ;be-.
fore the court for "breach Of
promise," she brought with her
another, ,suitor,• a stalwart, hand-
some young man, who promptly
challenged the. Maquis to a fight
and declare& loud y: "She, levee's
me and only me," j *•
The wizlow' then .indianentlye
denied to the court that she 'had
ever been-.in.love-wi.th..on..given
her promise to the Marquis, 'a
short,. 'timid young man. She
added-thet-she had no doubt who
would win if the two men fought
a dueI,. over tibia
The Marquis' looked specula -M
tivelyat.,his. uge.rival and.then
told the oourt: "I no longer lone
this young"•woman.•He can' have e
her''' `
' He then Withdrew his suit
and `tin selfe.
