HOW ABOUT THIS?

Marriage has become a mere incident IN
the life OF woman; man is but an appen-
dage, an adjunct. a corollary OF woman.
In short. a man is not nearly as important

ines himself So speakers at the recent
session OF the National Business Woman s
league in the Palmer House. Chicago, de-
clared. all the speakers being women.
In art. In music, IN literature. In medi-
cine, on the stage as nurses. as court
reporters, and In numerous other voca-
tions. professions. trades or crafts. men
are by no means the whole thing. Most
startling OF ALL a man as a husband does
not summarize the entire universe. A
husband is an incident. not creation.

WHAT IS THE PROPER AGE
FOR GIRLS TO MARRY?

No more useless discussion ever took
place than that which undertakes TO
DECIDE "the age TO marry" AS well
try to decide "the proper age TO die"
We are all In various stages OF evolu-
tion.
SO II is useless TO set an age when
each one OF is should do certain things
because no two OF us are In the same
mental or physical or spiritual state at
the same time.
There are girls who at 16 have devel-
oped the womanly and maternal instincts
which make them sensible and happy
grandmothers.
There are others who need 10 wait un-
I'll they are 35 or 40 before they will be
prepared 10 settle into contented matrons
and drop the frivolities OF life.
There are men who are born to be de-
voted husbands and fathers who have no
happiness In any other realm.
They are safe to marry az 20. and once
married means always married for them.
Other men-the majority perhaps-are
safer TO wait until the follies and adven-
lures OF life cease to seem attractive
and until home has more allurements
than the worlds maelstrom.
