The SEVEN AGES OF WOMAN IN LOVE;
CHAPTER FIVE--- WHEN SHE is

II there are any unhappy women

than In any other OF the seven-ages-o or

Married Thirty does not complain OF
her husband. she is busy and content
with her family. and II husband neg
iects her she finds full compensation
In her young children.
Spinster Thirty is absorbed in doing
lsome part OF the worlds work and
her ambition conceals for time the
romantic side OF her nature.
So | assert that mountaineering
lWoman-is at-no time happier In her
whole life than she is al Thirty. Can
IT be that the secret OF human happi-
ness lies IN evenly balancing the ro-
Inantic and practical? have often
wondered because, curiously enough.
woman is never more practical than
she Is at Thirty.
Whenever she does write OF Love
, It Is TO put some question about the
business OF marrying For instance:

lars In government bonds left me by
my father. Ny hance wants me 10

business can't see II that way, and
It Is making trouble. etc.-X'
~ No. Thirty is not easily swayed just
by the fiattery Of being loved.
And that upsets one or mans most
cherished theories. his favorite one OF
the score of unprovable theories which
he has accumulated about women.
Man believes that thirty is ten times
as anxious TO marry him as is the girl
decade younger. He hardly dares
hand thirty-one of those careless Just
In passing" compliments which he
keeps handy for women OF every age
for fear IL will land him in breach

theater instead OF committing any
thing TO paper so wary Of thirty is
man.
He thinks she thinks he is her last
chance,
But not so, o wary, scary bache-
lor!
Thirty isn't taking any chances on
q man,
Thirty Is a very critical person,
who thinks prince charming ridicu-
lOus. and the king impossible. And
while twenty-seven Is skeptica OF
love. thirty Is critical of the lover.

don the comfort OF fathers big car
