Unmarried Women
and Visiting Cards

Much doubt seems to exist on the cor
Tectness, or the reverse, of young un-
married women having visiting cards Of
their own. A girl never has a card OF
her own il the best society. To do so
argues one Of three things. either that
she has become an old maid. or is in
business or profession. or has adopted a
quite undue independence of character.
To define the age when "A single wom-
an may have her own card is "A mat

comes a mature woman at thirty.
while another remains 4 mere bantling

the subject, and a great deal also de-

this flag of freedom should never be
waved before a single woman has
reached the age OF thirty-hve or forty,
