though certainly familiar People seem
to think that girlhood leads, right into
age, and they leave out womanhood all
together. To my mind, the modern girl
is girl until she advances into woman
hood, though the development Of mind

paired by old age. It's only then that
she is no longer young
Generally this decay Of mind and body
doesn't appear until she allows herself
TO foster the idea by thinking Of herself
as old, so that age is a question which
each woman must settle for herself"
Miss wild's optimistic view will find
favor with all those women who are
trembling on the brink of the uncertain
age which. according to one writer, leads
to the dangerous age at about forty-two
years
Mrs. Mary Jansen the social worker
and philanthorpist, doesn't believe in age
at all and she gave me certain rules
which she insists will some day become
universally enforced.

Jansen. because age has nothing to dc
with years. Some women, as well as men
become fossilized any time after twenty
five, while others keep on growing and
expanding after sixty.

BY MARGARET HUBBARD AVER.

The directors Of the Young Women 4
Christian association of Chicago marched
into a regular hornets nest Of indig-
nation when they announced that wo-
man Is no longer young after she is Is
Almost every woman past that age has
had something to say on the subject
Mrs. F. G. Logan, cluhwoman of dis
tinction, announcing that "a girl Is q
girl until she Is matron, even II she
is not matron until 40"
Mrs. Logan Sprobably assumes that a
woman becomes a matron as soon as
she is married; as matter Of fact, II
is only the married woman, who is also
mother, who can be called matron.
said Miss Lucy Wild, the well known
business woman who has had SO much
to do with girls and matrons Of all
classes that her defination is accurate.
'The much disputed question of a
woman's age, whether she is young OF
old, is not counted by the date In the
family Bible.
"A woman is young until she herself
admits that she is old.
economic independence, has changed
woman's attitude toward the question
of age" continued Miss Wild, "and 1t is
quite certain that the wage-earning
woman of % nowaways is much younger
in every way, In looks, physique and in
mind, in her capacity for enjoyment and
endurance, than the woman of the same
age, 100 years ago, who did not have the
inspiration and the stimulus of an in.
teresting occupation.
I'm the old-fashioned novels the
heroine's age was generally 16 years OF
thereabouts and she was considered quite
passe after she was 20 years old. A
girl Of 16 years today is just emerglns
from the nursery. while the heroines OF
our most popular novels range anywhere
from "a to 81 years, and believe q years
is considered the most interesting age
for the heroine in fiction, and heroines,
of course, are always young.
'The limit of youth is constantly ex-
tending. l don't believe than anyone
would dare assert that girl ceases to
be a girl when she reaches the age of %
years. and certainly she is not matron
then or at any other time until she Is
married and is rearing family.
The girl of rs years may be sophisti-
Gated, but she Is not old. On the other
hand, certain type Of young girl, the
more earnest kind, is anxious to be
called woman rather than girl. and
is in no sense flattered when she is
called girl instead of the more digni-
fled title.
Age doesn't depend so much on birth.
days as 1t used to; 1t depends much more
on the spirit Of the woman. and l think
this spirit of youth is part Of the So
called woman movement.
The woman. no matter what her age,
who has health and enthusiasm, who is
interested in all sorts of things, is al
ways young. IL you called her an old
woman, she would be justly insulted"
How about calling her an old girl?"

Men are SO perverse. ] know a man
who deceived a perfectly good wife for

he ought to love the one who loved him

| Surely among the men and women Of
large wealth in New York City must be
those who will help this good woman,
now 60 years old, who has devoted her
whole life to a broad, non-sectarian
charity like this Night Refuge.
To the great body of men and women
of New York this charity is unknown,
Beyond the police sergeants Of the lower
districts, east and west, the reporters
whose duties take them into precinct
stations and the providers of the side
walks, scarcely more than hundred peo-
pie ever heard of its existence. The
| motive power of the charity is to be
| found in the personality Of good woman,
whose life-work lies In the succor of her
sex when all else In this world has been
closed to them.
And only those who by the condition
of their lives are forced into the knowl-
edge of the dark side OF existence in a
metropolis can appreciate how much for
the good of woman she has accomplished
in the thirty-three years Of her admins
tration of the little house in Fourteenth
street.
Go into any station of a busy police
precinct and on the wall, by the side OF
the sergeant's desk, is a big placard.
The placard is the first object that strikes
the eye of the homeless creature as she
opens the door of the station, and she
reads these words: "Open all night for
the reception Of those who need succor.
No questions asked, no cards or letters
necessary to secure shelter and food
Will not the opulent club men, who
spend days and nights at the auction
bridge table in our fashionable clubs, de-
vote the winnings of one evening to this
noble work?

While you lay blinking on your mothers breast
And with inspiring wand
Scar in your heart the woes of the oppressed?
Did His voice light way while great ones frowned
And small maligned,
