ACE At WHICH
GIRLS SHOULD WE'D
Twenty-six Years Old, Stoutly
Declares Governor Warheld
OF Maryland
He OPPOSES EARLY MARRIAGES

What is the ideal age for a girl to
marry? Twenty-six years Edwin War
field, Gov Of Maryland. told class
of sweet girl graduates recently at the
commencement of the Wilmington
High school, and all the girls and a
good many other folk raised their eyes
in wonder reporter OF The sun
dropped in upon the kindly Governor
the other day to ask II he really meant
what he was reported to have said, and
II he did mean It what were his rea-
sons for such an opinion
BY a curious chance, while waiting
until his Excellency should be at leis-
ure, the reporters attention was at
tracted to w. l.. Taylor's illustration
in a current magazine of Longfelow's
poem, "The Old Clock on the Stairs"
Ut was a charming picture Of a bride
descending a staircase and was ac-
lcompanied by the lines:
From that chamber, clothed in white,
The bride came forth on her wedding
night.
Here was an artists ideal Of a bride!
How old was she? The beautiful de-
velopment of figure in the quaint we'd
ding gown, the serenity of brow be-
ath the misty veil, the prayer book
of meditation i'm her hand, all bespoke
woman over 20 years Of age, rather
than a girl in her teens-she might
even be 26.
And just then the Governor appear
ed, little surprised and amused al
being called from affairs of state tC
pass judgment upon affairs Of the
heart.

Then he settled himself again and appeared to swell out in every di- rection The girl cast longing glances at the window. but the mans huge bulk and open newspaper cut off her view. The girl fidgeted. The man spread himself more and more Full three quarters of the seat he filled to overfiowing. The girl set her teeth. Thirty miles spun by. The girl could endure it no longer.

HAMLET'S MALADY.
A Study of the Melancholy Dane and
 His Moods,

A Study of the Melancholy Dane and
 His Moods.
 The tragedy of Hamlet is that a man of a peculiar interpretive tempera- ment is called upon to settle practical crisis. Hamlet knew this very well himself, and that makes the tragedy deeper. Brutus never doubted when once his decision was taken that he was the right man to cure the evils of Rome; Hamlet doubted from the very beginning.
 The times are out of joint. O cursed spite That ever I was born to. set them right.
 He was too fine, too distinguished, too intellectual, character to be the rough instrument which fate demand ed. He has the fatal malady of anal yzing his own motives, which is gener ally destructive of action. If you once begin asking yourself what will be the results and consequences of definite act, you will find that at the moment of action your will is paralyzed by ex cess of scrupulosity. as Hamlets was when with his drawn sword he saw his uncle praying. 1t was disease of will from which Hamlet was suffering. In any other times it would not have been So fatal. In this particular time, when he was called upon to do q specific act = to ayenge his father and kill the usurper-it is not he. but man rather of the Fortinbr:,s build, who will be the savior Of society. Observe, too, that. like many intellectual men. he cannot be sure of his own moods. He sees the ghost of his murdered father, but is it an honest ghost, is it really his fathers spirit? Hamlet believes in it on the battlements of Elsinore, but he entirely disbelieves it in another mood, when despite the evidences of his senses he talks of "the bourn from which no traveller returns The trav- eler who had returned is dismissed ap@ parently as fantasy of his brain. And these supernatural visitings in such an analytic and interpretive mind do not, as matter of fact. supply him with the motive for his subsequent action. The ghost can-make him put on an an- tic disposition. play with such crea- lures as Rosencrantz and GuiIdenstern, deride the senfle humorings of Polo nius and lessen the torrent of his words against his mother. But what the ghost cannot do Is to make him kill his uncle. He murders him at last, more or less accidentally, because his moth CT was poisoned and Laertes had play ed foul in the fencing bout. So curi- ously destructive of strong, practical volition is an intellectual maIady when 1t has grown nlorbid-the tendency to- ward introspection. self analysis, met aphysical specuIation.-W. L.
