Give Good Advice.

Clever Mrs. McGuirk, who knows the
ms and outs of Washington life better
than any woman IN the country, writes
entertainingiy of honeymOonS and we'd
ding journeys IN the Boston Globe, and
tells what various women in Washing
ton have to say OH the subject. Hand
some Senator Hansbrough. of North
Dakota. seems always carrying on 40
HONEYMOON with his charming wife. and
MfS. Hansbrough's opinion may. there
fore, be held to have some Welght. She
SAYS: 'Of course | believe iii honey
moons, and wedding Journeys, too. 1t
is the happieSt time Ill woman'S life,
and is something she looks back to in
after years with great delight. | be-
lieve that six months of leisurely trav-
cling is the best start in the world for
newly married couple.
"When couple get married they think
they know each others characteristics,
hut they do not, and during the time
they are travelling they have an OppOr-
tunity to study each others traits and
become familiar with all their little
faults and foibles. All isn't rose color.

life, and the constant change of scene

her to become accustomed to the fact

"Dou't you think modern couples are
apt to tire of each other Sooner when
they see so much of each other III that
kind of long trip, and especially when
| they discover that the godlike isn't so
predominant after all in each other?"
why, 10 more in that than i'll any
other way. 1T people are not happily
coupled they are going to tire anyway.

all this fashionable worry and furry
that attends SO many such Journeys. |
sist on her daughter making some sort
of wedding trip. 1t Isl better for her
in every way. One of the pleasantest
WAYS is the style. so many couples are
adopting now. They hire little cot
iage in quiet place comfortably near
town, and appear at intervals among
their friends. This is sensible, no mat
ter what way you look at it. 1t is gen
orally an accepted fact that those
couples are happiest who are re-
moved from the influences OF the
relatives of both during the
weeks Immediately following the
marriage. Girls who decree that they
will not go Oh wedding tours because
the rest of mankind stares at them
make great mistake. II alf the time it
is nothing more nor less than envy.
Then really there are always happy
memories connected with the places
visited that recur time and again to de-
light woman's memory. By no means
abolish homogeneous.
The lovely wife, of Senator Davis, of
! Minnesota, said: '.'Modern homogeneous
are so changed that the Objectionable
features are gradually being removed.
Of course it is natural for a newly
welded couple to desire TO be by them
selves. 1t depends greatly on girls
nature what should be advised. What
might conduce to the perfect happiness
of one girl might make another per-
fectly miserable, and any one who
would presume to lay down universal
rule that every bride and groom could
! follow would be in sad situation.
.'But there is one piece of advice that
/ people contemplating matrimony and
: Wedding tours lad better consider in al
: seriousness. Don't start at once foi
Europe. Unless woman is daughter

; she is pretty apt to wish she had never
E heard of you before the Atlantic is hall
