hand, it In disastrous. there arc fewer years
lsft IN q woman's life in which to live out
her mistake. Sho has lost nothing by wait
ing. There Is a aoodly amount OF sound
sense In the ~oft-repented saying of the old
sorry"
There Ia a good deal of silly talk about n
woman'a being phlegmatic, incapable of
Loving at rs and 30, as she was at 16 and 70.
That's all nonsense. As q natures
in grace Of mind n body, Just 80 much
more deeply will she love. Her love at 30
Is worth a hundred fold moro to the one
who wins 1t than when She Ia at the unoer-
tain, impressionabls age OF 20.
Many urge early marriage on the ground
that the husband and wife grow into each
other's ways more easily, adapt themselves
TO ench other more readily, and thus live
more tremendously.
There are many natures which could
never adapt themselves to each other, no
matter when they were brought together,
and those two people who marry make a
mistake fatal to their happiness if they
are not sensible enough and reasonable
enough. and can 80 supplement each other
that they can marry at 40 as we'll as at 20.

The Age to Wed.

Accepted authority states that as nations
advance the approved age for a woman to
marry becomes proportionately older, says
the Washington Post, and cites instances of
barbarous nations where the girls are mar
risd when they are mere children. In these
ha!oyon days of the nineteenth century
another mark of progress is the fact that
the age when " woman becomes an old
maid is no longer twenty-five, but a decade
later, thirty Ave. 1t may be that the maid
ems themselves have removed that siQnif-
cant mile stone, but, ut any rate, some one
IN n popular publication is responsible for
the notice that such removal mas been
made.

she has never met before. He is mature,

Any Woman Can Marry.

l cannot suppress n smile when l hear
some individual, says Mary Young Hogan,
generally n man with conoeited confidence,
imply that if a woman is not married it ia
because she cannot-no one has ever asked
squib. intended to be laugh0d at, setting
forth the changes in q girls ambitions re-
Qarding her future consort az she grows
older. AT l6 she longs for the hero of
daels: at 20 she must have a poet or phil
osopher; at % she falls perceptibly to a
for anything who will suggest marriage to
her. This is in keeping with some verses
given by an elocutionlst a few evenings ago
IN response to an encore. 1t was con-
sidered very funny, and no doubt you've
heard it-about the old maid who
tree for a husband. Perohed in the tree
above her sat an owl, and when she had
finished, the bird. according to an estab-
lished habit of owls sang out, "Tee-whit,
to-who-o. who!' and the trembling matri-
monial mendicant said: 80, Lord, any
body"
Such witticisms (?) must 60 for what they
are worth. A few more suns and they will
never get beyond the end men of a fourth
rate minstrel troupe.
There is not a woman living who couldn't
have married at some time or other, but
WIZ, IOE uer OWL bOOu reasons, which she
does not choose to publish, has kept her
identity.
If it would relieve the Georgia humorist's
mind, l would suggest that he cease to
worry about the matrimonial prospects of
the college girl. The college girl will take
care of herself. If she knows too much to
marty the man who didn't know tina Tom
Alexander had any horse" that man will
either have to educate himself and climb
up to the college girls standard or else try
to marry some good girl, and there are
thousands of them yet, who knew as little
about Eucephalus as he does.
Some of the friends of DIR. Eastman
feared for his happiness. lest the woman
who had promised to marry him had been
actuated by some contorted motives of
good to an abused race, or by lofty ideas of
elf-saorifics and all that-such feelings az
have influenced many a love-sick girl. On
the contrary. when DIR. Eastman led Elaine
Goodale to ths alter, she plighted her vows
with a christian gentleman, an educated,
honorable man; a man who, despite fate
and race, with unwonted courage rose to
that standard of manhood that is worthy o
talented, womanly wife, like Elaine East
man.
True enough, "the pendulum is swing
ing" Man must look we'll to the metal of
his makeup if he wants to marry. for under
the new regime a woman will turn from
the inferior man as from sounding brass
and a tinkling oymbal."

One Of Them Who Is Not Willing
to Start Life With a Poor
Man.
There Is Not a Woman Living But
Gould Have q Husband
Says Another.
Tho Proper Ago for Girls to Marry-At
Thirty a WoMan's Love IL Worth
More Than ut Sixteen.
"Marry a poor man? Never"

MARY a poor man? Never"
Ihe speaker tossed her pretty head and
crossed her tiny feet in her high-hoeled
slippers in a way that cpoke OF determined
conviction, says the Atlanta Constitution.
"Then you don't believe in lover" | said.
Eyes. ccrtainly-for some women. The
women who marry poor mon for love are of
that heroic sort who would burn ut tho
stake for their convictions. l am not ono
of them. ! am just rs frivolous, just as
fond of dress and worldly show, just as ac-
customed to ~luxuries as if | had $1,000, 900.
On the othcr hand, l am utterly Of no ac-
count. l am a superior girl in no way
whatever. l haven't a mission. l don't
love to cook or sew. / don't love to nurse
children, and I haven't any talent that
could bring me in a single cent of income"
"But you were sent to q fashionable
school, and had every advantage that rich
girls hgve.''
Yes, that's what's the matter with me.
From my infancy my family has skimped
and scraped to give me Injuries and pleas
ures. Ny brothers were put to work soon
after learning their letters, in order to give
me an education fitting a young woman of
~ONNpy "AN - Tvs J0ou Jutb6 I'LL
vantages OF rich girls that have utterly
spoiled me for a roor a wife,"
But II you loved a man you'd lcatn to be
PRACTICAL if it were necessary"
TITS funny how people look to love to
change a persons entire life and habits.
Etey forget that a womnn's ideas and man
aers of life are formed by the time she is
. or %. II I married q poor man my love
for him wouldn't make me Obvious to the
fact that other women were better dressed
than l; that my home was a poor, meager
place by the side of my f~riends'; that |
could not afford to return their courtesies.
Now, If l were n woman with lofty aims ]
wouldn't care ,or these things; but, as it is,
these things make up the sum and sub
stance of my existence. Imagine me mar
rled to a poor, proud, ambitious fello w.,
think how hard it would be for him all the
years he was battling with fortune to have
poor little mopirg, helpless me by his side.
Think how it would hurt him to see me re-
pinlng for the ~luxuries he couldn't afford"
But he would win fortune after awhile"
Perhaps so-when he had grown hard
and and 1 had grown cold and
faded. l am not ambitious for that sort of
success. Give me the fair, feet days of my
youth, filled with tho pleasures and COM
forts of life. Let me dance in golden slip-
pers while my limbs arc young and supple,
rather than wear them at sewing machines
or at the cradles of crying babies. The
8 eatest uuhappiness means the missing of
that i'll life which we love most. Now, too
woman replete with emotional feeling, it
would be love, 10 me it would be pleasu Q
and comfort"
And she settled herself calmly down in
the great, soft lounging chnir and dropped
o bon-bon in her pretty mouth.
