Aeeepced authority states that a.

ately older, and cites instance of bar
baT0us nations where the girls are mar
ried when they are mere chIleIen.
In these halcyoB days of the nine

grsss is the fact that the age when +
woman becomes an old maid is no

maidens themselves have removed tha'
significant milestone; but at any rate,
some one in popular publication Il
responsible for The notice that such re
novel has been made.
Bat suppose, after thirty years of .
life filled with good and hsppy things,
moman finally finds the one man, lbt
Ike of whom she has never met before.
He Is mature, like herself; his character
Is formed, aud she knows to reason

Fy. She gives up maidenhOod with b
struggle, but she understands aud real

her fiancee and respects HIM profoundly
she has had evidence that their lasle'
