The pendulum, however, swings

suffered and liberty been circum-

the thankless cares of married life.
Early marriage means early ag-
ing for women, and one consequence
of prolonged girlhood is the post
ponement of married life. Women
preserve their youthfulness now
much longer than used to be the
case. The modern girl marries
much later in life than her prede-

only possible answer to the question
is the most obvious, namely, when
she arrives at years of discretion.
This happens at various ages, ac
cording to the character of the girl
Some girls are sensible women at
10 and some are never sensible at
all. The Amelia Sedley sortof girl
is a survival of the chattel period,
and as she never acquires the sort
of discretion which is a safe con-

ference at what age she marries.

WHEN SHOULD THEY MARRY
Sarah GRAND Gives Young Girls
Advice in eThe American
Queen"

This is one of the questions which
people are prone to consider by the
light Of their personal experience.
ideas on The subject of the age at
which girls should marry vary con-
siderably When wives and
daughters we're the goods and
.chattels and men had the principal
say in the matter, little girls were
cruelty forced to marry at the be-
ginning instead of the completion of
the change from childhood to wo-
manhood. They we're made wives,
ythat is to say, while they were
still far from being perfectly de-
Veloped women physically, and
were utterly immature mentally,
with all their natural womanly in
'stiBcts still in allegiance. For
'tunately the inquiry and absurdty
of this have been thoroughly ex-
posed and now if parents attempted
TO pitch forth their little daughters
of from IL to 13 into matrimony as
they,djd with impunity not so very
long .Rgo, the whole world would
cry shame upon them
The whole tendency of the modern
education for girls is to prolong
thei girlhood. The ghastly doc
strine that this is necessarily
wlUbed world, no longer finds
general acceptance. It is a favorite
.aNll0m with us nowadays that every
age has its pleasure, or should
lheve, with a fair child
hood, girlhood, womanhood-and
ITO get the full value out of each.
Our intelligent girls begin to have
ideas of their own on the subject of
'the disposition of their lives,

be put off with half an education

EXCITING SEA FiGHTs.%

How Mediterranean Fishermen Bahd
Together to Catch Tunnses. ~ $
One of the most thrilling and wonder.
full sights In the world is that OF the
funny fisheries Of the Mediterranean sea,
of, these great and swift fish is not q
mere tame operation of netting. 1t Is a
fight between man and sea creatures
such as Is duplicated nowhere except in
the whale fisheries. The funny is a huge
mackerel. He is predaceous fish, and
his course through the seas Is that OF a
destroyer without parallel. So deadly is
the funny to the schools of herring and
similar food fish that he is called the
herring hog. In our waters he is known
more generally as the horse mackerel.
The funny fisheries are distinctly Euro
pean, and they are the Oldest industry
that is known in the Mediterranean. sea.
To capture them men must band them
selves together in large bodies, for fisher
men singly could do nothing with these
fish, which grow to length of ten feet
and weigh over half a ton sometimes.
Therefore there Is a system of co-opera-
ton on the coasts that are visited by the.
funny, system which dates back TO- the
PhRnicians, who were great funny
catchers in their time. The perfection
of this system is due, among other
things, to the fact that the big fish have
absolutely regular habits. In normal
times they can be relied on to. make
their appearance at certain periods I'll.

it is in huge schools that can be seen

and the leapings Of their own bulky
bodies beat the deep into white foam and

Since they are SO exact in their habits,
the fishermen prepare for them always
before they arrive. At some designated
spot are spread enormous nets, exceed
ingly deep and 1nade Of the strongest of
line. These are not designed to catch the
tunnies. They are spread out merely to
force the fish to edge in and in until
they are led t. the real prison net,
which " vast continuance set in an
immense square and powerful enough to
defy anything that swims. AS soon as
the last of the school has entered this
boxlike\ Enclosure the sides Of the great
net are raised at a signal. At first the
imprisoned fish do not show any signs
Of alarm. But as the net rises, inch BY
inch, from the water depths, cleaning,
sworjlike backs appear here and there
above the surface, darting with incredi-
BILE swiftness from side to side Of the
net. Each instant more Of these living
blades appear above the surface. Then
the fish begin to leap. Here one launches
himself straight out of the water, 500
pounds of gl0rious life. toward the sky,
to crash back into the sea with 1 fail
like blow OF sides and tail that makes
