could they be, when the days for that
sort OF. thing ar gone by? But at the
same time, they may be founded on
things which are more comfortable
and decidedly more enduring. Es-
TEEN, affection, eongeniality, suitable
ity of interests, certain likeness in
tastes and viewpoint sound tame and
uninteresting as a, basis of marriage
to Sweet and Twenty. But they are
very excellent substitutes for the
youthful intensity of enthusiasm
which after all is so apt to wear itself
out even before the passing of the
years. For in late marriages as in
early marriages there is every chance
of happy ending, and the verifcation
of the old fairy-tale benedietion to the
storytelling happily ever after"

HUNGRY, BITES DIAMOND.

Philadelphia, April 15.-Love and
romance are impossible when a man
is hungry. Daniel Max, forgetting the
ardent promises he had made in the
early days of bliss, seized the hand of
his sweetheart, Gene Foreman, and
bit the diamond engagement ring he
gave her. He was hungry, he said
not for love, but for food.
The girl glared at him when he
called at her home, 2515 South Sth
street, and asked that she give him
the ring to paw. She denounced him
and shook the diamond under his nose.
Then he stole it with his teeth and
ran from the house. A crowd of men
and boys chased Max and he was cap
tured by Policeman Truitt. The lover
showed fight, but was beaten into sub
mission.
When brought before Magistrate
Carson today, Max said that after he
became engaged to Miss Foreman he
was taken i'll, and finally lost his job.
When money becme necessary, he
urged the girl to let him pawn the
ring.
81 helped to pay for the ring my
SELF" said Miss Foreman, as she glared
angrily at her lover.
Max was held under $500 bail for
court.

Late Marriages
I BY FLORENCE E. YODER

nation after the half-century limit
which leads to matrimony and happi-
ness.
One of the happiest marriages with
in my knowledge is that of music
teacher who, at the somewhat mature
age of 50, entered the bonds of matri-
mony with an old flame who was two
years her senior. They have now
been married for three years and are
just as happy as they possibly can be.
For they have settled down into the
ways and habits of each other in a
surprisingly intuitive manner. And
this seems all the more remarkable
in that they hitherto had both been
strong in the ways of old maids and
old bachelor.
Late marriages are, of course, risky
affairs, but at the same time they are
frequently very successful. For each
has learned many lessons from life dur
ing the protracted period of single
blessedness. Each has learned not to
demand too much, nor to be too much
downcast by the ups and downs of
fortune. True, late marriages do not
bring the first fine careless rapture"
to which earlier affairs lay claim. But
they can bring very permanent sat
isfaction, and feeling which is more
steady easy-going and generally sopo-
rife than the eager intense ups and
downs of loves young dream.
For loves young dream always does
hold great measure of ups and
downs. There is no getting away
from that fact. 1t is only in youth
that the deepest measures of feeling
are gagged. 1t is only in youth that
we touch the very heights, and, cor
respondingly, 1t is only in youth that
we touch the uttermost depths of sor-
row. True, the sorrow is soon for
gotten, for optimism is natural to
youth. But during the periods when |
the bottom is touched, the whole world !
is bla3t and pitiless and the sun
seems 70 have ceased shining for ever |
L-ats marriages very, very seldom |
are founded on intense passion How !

CHARLOTTE HAS BELIEFS.

New Orleans, April 15.-In New Or
leans they say once you drink NIissis-
sippi river water you'll be sure to
come back to the old town no matter
how far you roam; in Mobile, once
you get sand in your shoes you'll re-
turn and over in Texas the charm of
chewing the salt cedar will bring you
back.
Charlotte Walker says the charms
are all real. She first chewed the salt
cedar of the Lone Star state and has
been innoculted with Mississippi riv.
er water and Alabama sand, and al
though she has tasted the fruits of
Broadway, she invaribly returns to the
south.
Just to prove the efficiency of the
old safing she points to the incidents
leading up to her present appearance
in THE Might Have Beens," at the
Orpheum this week. Miss Walker
had planned to follow in the footsteps
of other dramatic stars in accepting a
moving picture proposition when the
offer came to go into vaudeville, which
she accepted and which she says sat

weeks she found herself and company

In spite of the pessimism of the
tlcynics and the skeptical smiles of
modern readers, there is something
enchanting about the old-time ro-
mances with the cheerful termination,
"and they lived happy ever AFTER For
all the ancient fairy tales end that
way. And the pity of it is that so
many people do firmly regard that
particular ending as nothing more nor
less than fairy tale!
In these days of everlasting prob
lem-novels, and the perpetual stirring
up of certain muddy waters which can
do no good but can only achieve a
great deal of harm, it is delightfully."-
refreshing to turn to the old books in
which the souls of our grandmothers
reveled lin their early days, please be
it understood-they like something
much more convincing nowadays), and
which always possessed the same or
thodox conclusion. If they didn't hap
pen to possess the cheerful ending
and the grass was growing green over
the grave of the hero or heroine, and
the wind and rain and the reader were
all signing and sobbing together, then
our grandmothers enjoyed the story
all the same. For it had a touch of
the Real Romance-than which there
is nothing further to be desired in a
love tale.
But to return to the matrimonial
ending. The altar nowadays proves
merely the beginning instead of the
ending of the tale. And all modern
stories deal with the course of true
love after it has swept through the
very gates of hymen right on to the
divorce, or the final reconciliation or
the legal separation Or whatever it
may happen to be.
The question as to the expediency
of late marriages is engrossing at the
present time. For opinion differs so
widely that no special criterion can
be set up. The passing of the years /!
leaves people younger and
sprightlier than they ever were be- !

LABOR CRISIS AT CHICAGO.

Chicago, April 15.-The expiration
TODAY of the agreement between the
master builders and their union EN-
ployees brings to head the long dis
pute as to whether an increased wage
will be granted, or whether a gigantic
strike of the building trades union1sts
will be ordered. The carpenters want
an increase from IS to 70 cents an
hour. The builders have offered DO
for IS months, and 671a for the sue
ceding IS months. Painters, plaster
ers and fathers are also involved in
the dispute. Meanwhile building is at
a standstill, and many civic bodies
are trying to bring about solution
of the difficulty
