According to the outcome of the test, their matrmgc was a mighty puoi risk. Hci husband Is an only child, and yet, tile child of divorced parents. When they married she was earning more than he he was starting his career nt the bottom. They are of different religious faiths. And to add the final handicap to the marriage, her mother lives with them during part of each year.

But if two persons are deeply in love, if they take it for granted that they'll stay married for life, it they meet tlieir problems as they come along, they'll probably get along all right. They may not be Ideally happy all the time. But few people married to a good risk or ft poor one.
