The Singing Shad

A reader of the Rel bile residing at
Bentonville. Ark, writes follows:
II read your note on vocal fishes in
Notes for the Curious on Septemb Der IL
and wish to say that along the coast of
Florida and Georgia have often heard
the musical notes of what the old fish
ermen call the singing shad.' They
differ from the common shade in being
smaller and also in the forma ton of
their mouths. Their singing is pleas
ant at first, but soon grows monoto-
nous, owing to the fact that it is a con-
slant repetition of the same sounds"

MEMS MARRtAoEAsLE AGE
Old Subject Discussed From New Point

Old Subject Discussed From q New Point
of View. l
It is a singular fact that the discus
sion of matrimony in all its aspects is
always made relative to the woman 1t
is as if she was the most interested of
the two persons in the case, and had
looked upon marriage in the light of
an achievement, upon whose laurels
she could rest for the remainder of her
life The age at which she should
achieve matrimony is gravely dis
cussed; also her qualifications for that
picturesque institution of society.
Yet marriage is not one-sided affair.
There is a man in the case What OF
him?
At what age should a man marry?
This experiment of home-nalking con-
tains as many complex elements. some
hidden. some apparent, for him as for the
woman. Much of its success depends
upon the way he has approached it,
and the way in which he has approached
it depends upon his age. A man at "a
will see differently and act differently
from his manner of seeing and acting
at "a, that is, if he has developed in
mind and character during the inter-
vening ten years Broadly speaking,
the marriageable age of men should
not be placed under 25; not alone be-
cause men under that age are not, as a
rule, in financial position to marry:
chiefly because they have not sufficient
maturity of character to judge wisely.
Judgment is, indeed, out of the ques-
ton in those tender years between 10
and 25. The man is a boy whom the
world has not yet taken into it's conf
dence; and in spite of it's absence of
idealism the wisdom of the world is a
necessary wisdom. Goethe although
not by any means an example to be
held up to young men) was wise
when he did not allow his youthful
love for Frederika Bremen, the coun-
try parsons daughter, to lie ad him into
marriage with her. He realized per-
haps, with the intuition of genius,
that love can never make up for the
absence of intellectual sympathy be-
tween a man and woman. Men who
are not Goethes marry at 81 or % the
object of boyish love. only to find, as
they mature, that the wife, by her linn
itations, can be housel1eeper, but
never friend.
This does not imply that men do not
marry rashly after 80, but that they are
less likely to marry solely because
they happen to be sin love-" a sopho-
moric experience which has never
known to occur more than once to tho
same person.-N. Y. Commercial Adj
