A CANADIAN MARCH1ONEss

Altho not quite 3 years old, the son
of the lovely Marehioness Of Donegal,
formerly Miss Violet Gertrude Twin
ing of Halifax, N. S., and later Of
Greater Boston, is now lord high adj
.miral Of Tough Neagh and governor
Of Carricksfergus castle, receiving the
title from his 82-year-old father, who
died recently. As second wife Of the
aged marquis, the marchioness present
ed him with fortune and an heir.
The stork, that is the crest of the
house of Donegal, is prophetic.
Canadian by birth, American by edu-
cation, daughter Of the late Henry
George Twining Of Halifax, N. S., she
is even more admired than when sho
was presented at King Edwards first
court.
When title wanted to marry wealth
a few years ago, differences Of nation
atty and age did not hinder the nup-
tials. When the 79-year-old marquis
welded the 2O-year-old college girl, d
great sensation was caused in society
circles. $500. $500.

! knew You had any. Also, I might zay
that when your engaged man conjura
up his rosy vision Of serene angel,
never out of temper nor en- deshabille,
he is laying up some Of the dynamite
that is to burst that bubble. I will
admit that each expects too much Of
the other and that the sooner the mar
riage contract reads, Thru temper and
jealousy and backbiting and criticism
and dyspepsia and sulks, the sooner we
! women will have clear light of tho
kind of a proposition we are stepping
into. But that's not the only reason
that marriage is failure''
"No9''9 said the Bachelor Man.
"What's the others''
It is not new nor startling" the
! Bachelor Girl said. cit IS been said
and sung and written since the divorce
courts first went into business. Yet
men are slow to learn it. In all the
homes visit I don't see more than two
or three men who seem to understand
it. It's simply that the average woman
is starved for affection. She can do
anything, bear anything, suffer any
thing in an atmosphere Of love. With
out it she is unsatisfied and unhappy
incapable of doing or being her best.
If men would only learn that quiet
little word of affection or just an un-
/ dertone of tenderness in voice and man
ner, is enough to make most women as
happy as queens, the divorce record
. would fall off three-fourths. Men think
their wives take these things for
/ granted. They don No woman is
evers:so old or so wise that she doesn t
i need the constant assurance Of deep,
/ strong affection.
perhaps you are right, conceded
4 the Bachelor Man. "Men have less
time to, think about these things. But
granting that women didn't expect to
marry demi-gods, and that men bore
/ themselves with more consideration for
a woman s needs in the respect you
! speak of, Iwonder if marriage would be
such a failure after all7''
j Il guess admitted the Bachelor
Girl, that 1t would not. 80

to make them fit in. Pour a pint of
water into the saucepan, cover closely

corn cut from the cob, add to it an
equal quantity Of shelled Lima beans,
put the beans in the saucepan, having
first removed the cobs, and add enough
milk to cover. Cook until the beans
are soft enough to be easily pierced
