DO not believe that any limit should be set on pro-
gressve matrimony
! There are two reasons that have their roots in
the depths of human nature for remarriages One is
that II the first marriage is happy state, there is
desire to repeat it. The other is that II the first
rage Of marriages turn badly hope triumphs over
experience and it is human to want to try again. Each
is a good and sufficient reason
Each answers the question, How many times may

wishes 10 perpetuate happy state or to forget

The first marriage Is usually for love The man mar

stamp OF her gracious personality upon his success in
his combat with the world.
In HER second and subsequent marriages the woman
is prone TO consider calm and congeni companionshp
rather than marriage. She knows that man. imperfect

her being cheated by hotel keepers and robbed by train
attendants And many like to go about a great

she has. all the better for the world will say he

Some sensitive persons profess to be shocked by what

II woman would wait until she Is thirty
and man until he Is forty there would be
fewer rc-marrlages. OF course there would
be less time-but the truth Is, q greater pro.

not learn that great lesson Of marriage--not
TO expect too much. Extreme youth always
expects too much-of friends. Of lovers. OF the
whole world.
Politeness Is the mucllage that binds to-
gether the affections. Familiarity is the hot

retire from them and build the foundation Oh

The unromantlc truth is that many marriages cease
after time. to be marriages. For when love has gone
there is no real marriage and do not believe that
after five years OF living under the same roof man
continues to love woman nor a woman man. The
close commonplace everyday association has brushed
the bloom of love.

she has first freed herself from her old bonds. But
there is ole point she may well give thoughtful con-
sideraon That is, that If she have sons she will not
need to marry for an places Of amusement nor
for travelling companion. II she have any children
she may decide not to let their be swallowed up
and abandoned in a new one My argument in favor OF
remarrage applies particularly TO the chdless
woman but it is true in a broad sense Of any.

a girl who is known to have been

a much deeper degree toward the

OF the horse, so we think OF the

how many dollars she has brought

Mrs. Bennett found the ordinary
deaf and dumb finger language
equal TO every requirement. Like
most deaf mutes, she could also
read the speech OF others by
watching the movements OF their
lips. This method, however, works
only one way. the mutes being un.
able to make even the motions OF
Ineligible speech with their lips.
Mrs. Bennett lost her eyesight
through much sewing at night-a
task necessary for her support. As
her sight waned her thoughts
dwelt upon the problem of future
means of making known her needs
and of receiving communications
from others. Though blind she
could write, but 1t would be i'm
possible for her to read the writ
ing of others.
She had heard Of Helen Keller
and the possibility of "lipreading
with the fingers; but she realized
the extreme difficulty in her case

eyes closed she could touch The
palm or any finger of her left band
with a finger tip of the right one

BY experiment she found that
