Warren to Madame Jouven's some

How young Marion seemed, was
Helen's strongest impression. How
carefree-how full of the sheer joy
of living. Although they were the

as though her life was half lived !:
while Marion's seemed only beginning,
with the possibilities of a great sue

There are times when every mar

love her husband. thinks of the pos

that might have been hers. had she
not married.
And now as Helen left the bus and
walked slowly toward the hotel, in
the background of her thoughts was
stirring of vague dreams and am
bitions that had long lain dormant.

DEAR MIS- FAIRFAX:
am 26 years old and have just
received a proposal of marriage
from a man one year my senior.
Do you think 26 is too old to get
married; in fact, I will be 81 be-
fore we are married? Do you
think a woman of 26 should
marry man only one year her
senior? What I'm afraid Of Is
that we might outgrow one an
other A man at 80 is young; a
woman at 80 is middle aged. /

after a few years / wouldn't like
to be laid aside for fairer and
younger faces. R. F.

needlessly. You will not b,

Two Dippings Urged

Arizona cattlemen interested in keeping their state free of ticks and Sonora cattlemen and inn porters of cattle from there. met with Dr. A. D. Melvin, chief of animal industry in Fl Paso, last week. The former desired that the present requirements of two clippings be maintained and the latter wanted restrictions remov- ed. No official action was taken and none probably will be taken until Dr. Melvin returns from Washington.
 At present two clippings of So- nora cattle are required, because it is impossible, say the officials to learn if cattle have come from infested districts. The import CTS want the government to al- low the importation of cattle without the required clippings when affidavits can be produced to show that they have been free of ticks and have been kept in a tick-free area for 60 days. The Arizona cattlemen are fighting the change sought, saying that afhdavits from Sonora at this time are of little worth and ticks have been spread all through the state.
 Where cattle are not shipped to Arizona ranges only one dip ping is required. It is probable that the present restriction will be maintained.
 Those attending the meeting were: Dr. A. D. Melvin, chief of the United Statea bureau of ami nal industry; Dr. R. A. Ramsey.
