The Old Girl who is so frankly an Old
Girl that no one hesitates to ask her to
serve in the capacity of chaperon, ap-
Dealed patheticaIly from the tea she
was pouring to the circle of faces around
her.
DO any of you girls know where I
can find a MANI" she began, and then
there was a chorus of Interruptions
A mani" cried the girl with the red
hair. Think of it, Miss Manysum-
mers wants mani"
Good heavens yes" exclaimed the
young woman in black. ''Win you take
the Old Reliable, Ubiquitous and Inc
vitable off my hands2"
If we did" purred the Visiting Girl,
do you suppose we'd trust him to you,
Miss Manysummers2
Millions of men, detained the de-
butante sententiously, but few of them
satisfactory"
Never put such question to a mar
ried woman. said the Young MatTon.
The Old Girl blushed looked helpless
and somewhat annoyed but smiled pa
tiently.
Then the Oracle came to her rescue.
"Of cOuse Miss Manysummers. she
said I'VE know that YOU were going to
ask for a man to beat carpets or NOW
the lawn or take care of the horses but
it was too good an opportunity for all
these dazzling wits to let pass No
doubt the jokes seems ludicrously fun
ny to giddy young things like them but
when they approach our ages they'll
be plenty sick of it."
The fact that no one in the company,
the Debutante excepted, was any
younger than the Oracle. made her
irony perfectly evident but before they
could retort she proceeded:
In considering the advantages of
matrimony no young woman should
overlook the freedom which the married
woman enjoys from the alleged humor
that has the old maid as its object 1
place that above the relief it must be to
feel that one has steady situation for
life. or during good behaviour. with
sick leave and vacations on full pay. or
even the prospect of widowhoOd with
life insurance or alimony. A woman
may accept her only offer and he may
be a mighty poor excuse for a husband:
she may be married for her money or
be obliged to work to support her hus-
band and herself, she may be neglect
ed, misreated, even deserted; but new
er again after she has put the wedding
ring on her finger and the magic prefix
to her name will she be obliged to
smile at a cheap joke on spinsters for
fear some one viii think she is sore if
she doesn't
Never again viii any one hint or inti-
mate that she Is dying to get married
and can't find any one willing to take
the risk Never again Will the hoary
tale of the old maid and the burglar I'M
der the bed be told for her benefit Yes.
I am persuaded that this is she prin-
cipal advantage of matrimony and that
placed in the balance it outweighs all
the drawbacks, and I have no doubt
that many other women have argued in
the same way and have taken the lean
in the dark for no other reason than to
escape not the Obloquy but the Jokes
incidental to single blessedness.
II am just expecting some one to sue-
ried woman In this matter is owing to
the fact that 1 am approaching the I'M
