long haired poets.

| IhlS is the time when the
curate and the Angora traterni-
ty generally have their innings,
and when, unless she has some.
body to save her life, girl is
apt to marry a poet or .elope
with her music teacher.
Twenty two is time of com
parative safety. She has begun
to enjoy herself and achieve a
certain philosophy. She still
looks forward to matrimony as
she does to heaven, as the re
ward of the blcst, but she is in
no hurry to enter into it.
She is having too good a time
as it is, and she hesitates to ex-
change the violets and candy of
many admirers for the bread
and butter of a hus band.
This is a time when a girl
uses her head as we'll as her
heart, when she selects a life
partner, and when she is most
apt to make wise choice.
At q all the danger signals
ought to be set. At that age
woman gets into panic. She
sees that all of the girls who
were her contemporaries are
married, and perceives sudden.
ly that she has been pushed
aside by the younger set. She
is asked to chaperon parties in.
stead Of dance at them.
A few gray hairs have made
their appearance. Old maiden
hood is staring her in the face
and her nerve deseI is her. She
plunges wildly and takes the
first thing that offers. This is
the time when woman is al
most sure to make foolish
match.
She marries the old beau who
has been hanging on for years,
or the widower with seven small
children, and spends the bal,
ance of her life wondering what
made her do it..
At 30, If she has passed safe
Iy over the panic period, she be-
gins to perceive that spinster-
hood has much to recommend
1t.
She has grown little cynical
about love from having seen SO
much of it that give out under
the first stress of matrimony,
and if she marries she is pretty
sure to have a weather eye up
on an establishment.
At 40 the old maid is hopeless
ly addicted to her latch key and
her own pocketbook, and her
matrimonial chances are nil.
Some few widows who have ac-
quired the habit of having
master, and are lost without
one, marry after that, but the
spinster rarely does.
When she does, however, she
throws judgment and reason to
the winds and narries to please
her fancy.
OF course no rules can be laid
down absolutely for the game
of hearts, and while woman's
inclination toward matrimOny
varies at different ages, when
the right man comes along she
will marry DIT any age from the
cradle to the grave.

MATRIMONIAL INSURANCE.

SAN FRANCISCO, October ga sig
nificant fact came to light yesterday n
the raising of the Chinese steerage
rates from San Francisco to China
from IS to $3.50. The advent of the
China Commercial Company in the
carrying trade of coolies led to a rate

companies plying between this port

MRS, HEARST
IN HONOLULU
DONOR OF MILLIONS TO THE
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA IS
THROUGH PASSENGER.

Mrs Phoebe Hearst, mother of Will
liam Randolph Hearst the newspaper
proprietor, is a passenger on the S. S.
Doric for the Orient. This Is the
first time that Mrs Hearst has visited
the Hawaiian Islands in 80 years. on
the occasion of her previous visit she
came here on a sailing vessel. Owing
to having arranged her plans, some
time ago, she will be unable to stop
over at Honolulu.
Mrs. Hearst is going to be absent a
number of months making an ex-
tended tour through Japan, China, Cey-
lon and India. She will stop at Yo-
kohama from the Doric and remain
in Japan some time. From Japan,
she will visit China and later go to
Ceylon and India. She will visit all
of India. Her stay in that section of
Asia will be terminated about Febru-
airy or March when she will return to
Japan and remain during the spring.
She will not make a tour of the world
but will return to America by way of
the Hawaiian Islands.
The recent gifts of Mrs. Hearst to
the University of California have en-
deared her to all people of California
and others interested in the advance
ment of educational institutions. When
it was proposed several years ago, to
/ extend the University of California,
Mrs. Hearst provided the funds with
which to conduct a competition for the
best architectural and landscape gar
dening plans for the establishment of
the University property. Architects
and gardeners from all over the world
were invited to compete. Lavish prizes
of money were offered. The plans
were judged by a committee in San
Francisco about three years ago and
resulted in those of French architect
being awarded first prize.
The plans provide for the erection of
university building and the embellish-
ment of the grounds on the most lavish
scale. The total cost will be fully $15,-
100000. But the plans are so drafted
that the buildings and ornamentation
of the grounds will be done gradually.
After this part of the extension of the
University of California had been de-
termined, Mrs. Hearst further donated
millions of dollars for the purpose of
enabling the extension of the plans to
be undertaken. 1t will be years be-
fore the plans are fully completed but
thorugh the munifcence of Mrs. Hearst
proceed for years with the work.
