The MARRYING AGE.
G. L. DAY, Publisher

II has often been said that "a WON.
an is no older than she looks" and
this Is really true. Some women are
younger at 40, in appearance and man
ner. than others are at 80. In this
connection it is proper to consider the
most suitable age for a woman to
marry. This depends upon circum'
stances, for the reasons above given.
A generation ago, when 25 was not far
from the average marrying age,
woman may have been considered
verging on old madhood at 30. Now
adays, however, the tendency Is to
marry late rather than early In life,
and the sensible woman who at 80
finds herself still unwed by no means
despairs Of being led to the altar. As
a matter Of fact, the majority Of men
only consider n woman old when she
IS close to the ffties, and even then
they often find attractive qualities In
her which younger women lack. Gone
are the days when a man regarded
youth and beauty as essential to the
happiness Of married life He looks
for a matured, steady and practical
mind, usually found in the woman Of
IS and 40, and forgcts her age. Where
women make the greatest mistake,
however is in trying 10 appear
younger than they generally are, thus
placing themselves in q false position
and utterly marring whatever other
charms they may possess. says the
New York Weekly. No woman, OF
course, likes to advertise her age. and
sho owes It to herself not to add to
tho Same by unsuitable or dowdy
dress. for instance. On the other
hand, It Is ridiculous for her to en-.
deayor to take five or ten years off her
age by dressing in the garb OF a
younger sister. and striving to cover
tclItalo wrinkles with powder and
rouge Men easily see through such
srtliices and regard the woman who
practices the same with feeling bor
dcrIng on contempt.

State Democrats in Session.

State Capital Notes
Weekly Budget Gathered by Our
Special Correspondent at Madison

Madison.-ln making the first an
nual report Of his department, filed
with the governor, State Fire Marshal
T. NJ Purtell recommends that the leg
islature pass law limiting the
amount Of fire insurance that can be
written on buildings and thus remove
one of the chief temptations to in
cendarism. The marshal believes that
allowing an agent to write excessive
insurance on buildings is placing a
premium on criminal acts.
The report covers the period from
August 4, 1907 to January /, 1908.
During that time the total number of
fires in the state was 100, with a total
property loss of s2,S03,74S The
largest loss sustained in any one
county was in Douglas, owing to the
large elevator fire, the amount being
$15SS, J24 The next largest was in
Milwaukee county where the loss was
$2S4,76O.
The largest number of buildings af-
fcCted in any one class was dwellings,
with gil The next largest number
was barns, with 1876 affected In con
nection with the loss on dwellings the
report calls attention to the fact that
the largest number Of fires were
caused by defective heating appa.
ratuses, and property owners are urged
to use care in looking after the con-
dition Of ilues. In the case Of barns
it is shown that out of the 1856 fires
SO were caused by lightning An in
quiry TO the insurance companies
shows almost a unanimous sentiment
in favor Of the lightning rod.
Attention is called to the fact that
LEGISLATION is pending in several
states against the manufacture and
sale Of the snap" match, and in favor
Of the safety match. The report shows
that there have been 2l5 orders issued
by the department directing the cor
reCtiOn Of dangerous conditions. There
have been 1913 cases Investigated by
the department, two people have been
sent to the state reformatory, two to
state asylums, and II bound over to
The circuit court.
The report shows that the total re-
Ceipts Of the marshal's department for
the five months in question was SIS,
l5i.S&. and the total disbursements
$T43S1S, leaving a balance Of $l1,.
36l.7j The receipts come principally
from the fire insurance companies
which are required to pay certain
percentage Of their premiums in the
stat" to maintain the department.
