PERIOD MARRIAGE
George Meredith Foresees
Such a Condition.

LONDON, Sept. PA silly season
newspaper discussion OF the marriage
question has provoked a remarkable
statement of opinion from the novelist,
George Meredith, who, in an interview in
the Daily Mali welcomes free discus
sion OF the subject, though. as he con-
fesses. Everything that ought 70 be
said has 10 be cut in half"
He predicts a change in the legal con-
ditions Of marriage, and foreshadows
a state OF society permitting marriages
for certain limited periods. the state
enforcing provision Of money during
that period 10 provide for and educate
children, the government possibly hav-
ing charge OF this fund.
Mr.. Meredith says:
There will be a devil Of an uproar be-
fore such change can De made. 1t Will
be a great shock. but look back and see
what shocks there have been and what
changes have nevertheless occurred in
the marriage business In the past
Mr.. Meredith foresees great difficulty
in English conservatism, notably re
vealed in criticism OF America, ':indi-
eating the Englishman's perslstency in
regarding any new trait as n sign OF
disease. Yet Mr.. Meredith says. 1T
is n sign OF health, and 1 am very glad
II any words OF mine can help air the
subject

1t is not enough to stand erect The
best way TO obtain the proper poise is TO
stand with face against the wall The
toes should touch the wall and the arms
hang limp by the side This latter is an
important suggestion. Often when one
begins these physical culture exercises
the muscles become stifrened, and no
benefit is derived. Let the tin of the
nose also touch the wall. not the MINER
part OF the nose, which would let the
head drop too much, but just the lower
tip. Press the shoulders as far bacl,

really good condition you should brush
and shake and air them every little
while. The dress or suit you wear every
day should have n daily shaking and
brushing, and thorough going over once
a week. You will be rewarded for your
pains, as your clothes will last much
longer and look much better. II It is
wool or dark material. the dust gets
ground in, and very soon the, whole
dress has a rusty appearance that with
a little pains and care you might have
avoided. Pressing is a great renovator,
and skirts particularly need II once IN
a while, as they get hard wear and are
apt TO be pulled out Of shape and get
knee holes which certainly are not
pretty. There is another advantage
about airing your clothes that is most
important. II keeps them fresh and
clean. Nothing is more disagreeab BILE
than an odor Of cooking or stale per
fume on ones clothes. To be fresh and
clean and neat is the way 20 be always
attractive. and every girl can be and
should be all three.
