 An old lady should be as at tractive as an old tree. Her eX- presSiOn should be one of seren- ity. If her nature is full of en- thuSiasm still, let it shine through this serenity as the sun shines through the haze of an Indian summer.
 She should avoid aggresSiveness and Overanimation of manner, and life ought to have taught her that repOse is more forceful than nervousness.
 She should have a mOdu.at.ed voice; her words should sooth and strengthen the listener they should calm passion-tosSed souls of the young who come to her for counsel and sympathy.
 She should be the universal mother; every son and daughter she meets appealing to her sym pathies and stirring the mother nature in her. Out of her own sor- rows, disappointments. losses and despairs out of her joys and. rap lures and triumphs and realiza- tiOns she should have distilled a wonderful elixir of loving sym pathy to give thirsting souls to dTink.
 There must too be a humorous side to her nature that she may be able to turn tears some times into laughter to make the ov- erseriOus person merry at his own expense and to smile at his own worries.
 She should be as charitable as God Himself; as patient as time as trustful as the soar system that leaves itself in the hands Of universal law. If life has not made her al. this. she has lived in vain.
 Has life taught you th.s?

GROWING OLD

To grow old is never an attrac- tive thought to a woman. Young girls think of it as a dreadful. goal, in a remote period, and matrons approach that goal by gradaul steps and often arriv0 at Old Lady Station without knowing it.
 The first time a woman hears herself referred to as The O.d Woman" is said to mark an epoch of sorrow in her life which can never be forgotten. l mean when the reference is frank and sin cere, not ocular.
 Many men have the habit Of re- Herring to young wives by that term, but that only accents the youth of a very young woman, as a grandma's cap makes a youthful face more piquant. But to be seriously called for the first time in the terms of great est respect. The Old Lady" ev- en with an endearing prefix is another thing.
 Perhaps the reason for this feeling so prevalent with both men and women, this dread of knowing that they are regarded as Old\ Ladies and O,d Gentle men is not because the old men and women we know are, as a rule so terrible, so bitter in their judgments so severe in the.r i- deas and so lacking in sympathy with the very faults and weak nesses they possessed when young
 There are beautiful exceptions but they are exceptions to the general run. l fear of the ed erly peop.e.
 The following letter is some what extreme in it's accusa tiOns against old ladies, but the writer has evidently suffered much at their hands, and his indignation has accumulated until it be- came a tidal wave:
 'WOn't you please take the old ladies by the ears and scold them? Business has taken me a. mong tham a great deal, and am amazed and disgusted at their foolish and sinful ways.
 Isn't it possible to have put in the prayers Of every church to grant we may gov old grace fully ani peacefully?'
 "Old folks are more trying than the most peeyish infant.
 They hate everyone whose ideas on religion differ from their their own deliberately mincorl- strue every good intention and !! positively cruelty a young woman Of goOd looks and animation.
 They are not lOvab,e, they | are not affectiOnate, they gos- sip dreadfully. and their natures are mean and conniving. This is Tar more noticeable among old, folks in smaller towns. |
