Points

Mothers
Problems For Parents to Decide.

Few questions perplex the conscien- /
tious parent more than the one PEE /

the manageable age. III some in
stances, of course. there is no room for
perplexity, because the choice suits all
parties, but in the majority OF cases
the parents have much TO think about.
Probably the mother is more perturfed
than the father, but all parents who
have the welfare of til d children at
heart must feel some anxiety when
they arrive at a marriageable age.
The first anxious feelings arise over
the choice which the son or daughter
may make. Then comes the selection.
and the parents wonder whether the
future partner is or will prove suitable
in the best sense of the word.
Suppose that the child be a daughter
The future husband is subjected to the
mental process often called taking
stock of him. and certain questions
arise.
The parents, not blinded by love, as
they are inclined to think their daugh-
ter Is, are not altogether satisfied
Loving their daughter, they set up
ideals, and this young man is not quite
| what they expected; they are not able
to explain exactly why, but somehow
he falls short. His income is smaller

very fond of sports, and they fear he
will neglect his wife In favor of ath-

but Qike so many clever persons) rath-

home to dinner at any time and max

series of little vexations. They may
object to his ayocation, and they may
also fancy that he is not really In love
with the girl or that she herself is sin-
ply infatuated and will regret ii

So they endeavor to exercise their
right as they say. The girl disputes
their right, saying that she is the best

her sentiments as she does. Ii is she

Who shall decide? Can the parents
do more than endeavor to reason calm

Everything she buys, from a spool Of

and the cost of the delivering adds 10
per cent to the cost of every article.
Now, my wife is different from the
common run. Every week day in the
year she goes to the market with a
big basket, does her own buying and
