Woman's Age.

A few years ago after woman had
passed thirty-hve she was relegated
to the flreside and she looked and felt
old. She lived in her memory, and all
the money that was spent for little
frills and follies was given to her
daughter; for mother all was over.
Suddenly woman awakened to the
fact that after thirty-five she is at her
best, and that her beauty need not
fade unless she wishes it.--Home Life.
