to be frivolous, the girls in their early
twenties would be the only ones who
could hope to be led to the altar But
this is not often the case, l am glad
to say. The majority of men by the
time they have reached thirty have
learned by experience, through hav-
ing been brought in contact with
young women of different ages, that
extreme youth in a wife is doubtful
blessing. He knows that the girl of
sixteen is not capable of the grand
passion which will endure Her likes
and loves are imaginary. What she
is infatuated with today she is tired
of tomorrow. Her thoughts are on
pretty dresses, good-looking young fell
lows, the latest dances, parties. frolics
and fadS.
When a girl has reached twenty
five she has safely passed through
the silly age. She is not attracted to
a man because he has love Of curl
ing mustache, brown, wavy hair,
wears fancy clothes and number
four shoe. On the contrary, the plain
er the young man the more in favor
he stands with her. She understands
him better; is much more companion
able. She realizes the solemnity of
the marriage bond; that her entire
future will be made or married by her
choice of husband.
When she is five and thirty she is
at the height of womanhoods bloom,
the perfect rose, with all her beauty
unfolded. Her charms are at their
best Her kindness and sympathetic
nature appeal to men whose hearts
could not be touched by any other
kind of woman. Much depends on the
woman whether she is prize in the
matrimonial market after this age. If
her heart still retains the qualities of
youth. and her lips their smile, her
eyes their brightness, and her manner
is cordial, it is an easy matter, if she
only knew it, to win the heart of many
a crusty bachelor or widower. They
are rot looking for the frivolity of
youth, or the young woman who ex-
poets to wed and raise family.
NeitEe r are they attracted to the wom-
an of thirty-five, whose ambition is
at it's height, who would scorn quiet
life and taking it easy. In fact, in all
truth it may be said that women of
lovabIe dispositions find there is no
age limit which bars them froL- at
tracing a congenial mate and we'd
lock- Let no single woman despair.
while there's life there's hope" Who
knows what day will bring forth? At
the time when woman feels the most
discouraged, sunshine may be break
ing through the clouds and a golden
day dawning for her.

Doll as Decoy for Car Seat.

One woman learned recently how to
get a seat on a crowded Kansas City
street car. Whether her maneuver
was made purposely or by accident Is
not known, but she obtained a seat
just the same.
The woman carried something
wrapped in a blanket. She watched it
carefully and handled it tenderly as
she entered a Rockhill car at the
Union station.
Several men jumped to their feet
Have my seat" said an aged man
with q courteous bow.
The woman accepted.
One corner Of the coverlet fell, and
the passengers saw a gayly painted
wooden doll such as is used by ven.
triloquists instead of the baby they
thought she was carrying.
A few laughed. The courteous old
man grew red in the face. The WON
an looked out the window until she
reached her corner.

CAT BATTLES WITH TURTLE
Philadelphia Man Awakened by the
Noise of Fierce Fight in
Rear of Home.

PhiIadelphia.-W B. F. Magnin
of Nintn street and Ridge avenue,
Darby, went to investigate noise in
the rear OF his home, which awak-
ened him early in the morning, he
found the family cat battling a two
pound swapping turtle. The cat, un-
able to understand his opponents tao
tics, was furiously scratching the lat
ter's hard shell back.
The snapper made pro1igious ef
forts to seize the cats flesh with his
beak, but was unsuccessful. Magnin
separated the two, and captured the
snapper, who will next be seen in the
form of snapper soup.

All thoughts, all passions, all delights,
Whatever stirs the mortal frame,
All are but ministers of love
And feed his sacred fame
There are men who do not know
what to make of it when they get a
sweetheart who does not object to
seeing them talk and laugh with pref
ty girls. The average man is used to
the ways of most girls. Quite as soon
as he begins paying attention to one
she gets the notion that he belongs to
her and should not look at any one
else. She would build a wall around
him, if she could, to keep others from
admiring him. He has only to men
ton that this girl has fine eyes, or
that one a fine form, to arouse her Ire
and to betray her jealousy.
BY this token he is sure of her. He
settles 1t in his mind that she is ready
to accept him quite as soon as he pops
the question. Manlike, being sure OF
her, he is in no hurry to declare him
self. If they have a misunderstanding
and part, he finds the next girl whom
he begins to beau about fashioned
after the same pattern. So on down
the long list of girls.
When he meets young woman who
is totally different from all the rest he
cannot understand her. He woos her
with ardor, but does not seem able to
melt her icy reserve He who has
been used to throwing his arms
around other girls without asking by
your leave" is seized with a mt OF
timidity at the impulse which comes
to him to take the icy maiden's hane
in his. When he makes his plea OF
love, she is one of the sort who do moi
fall into his arms whispering: MY
heart is yours / have loved you ali
along! When is the marriage to take
placer" Instead, the reserved maiden
looks at him sweetly, murmuring: !
must take time to think it over"
Even after she has given her con
sent that he may ask her father and
mother and has gained their approval
he often finds himself doubling wheth
er he will be able to win the girls
heart or not. If he could awaken
even slight spark of jealousy in the
girls heart he would be sure Of her
but this he is unable to do. He lingers
in the vestibule, just as he hal,
fingered with other girls. He does not
dare shock her by offering to caress
her. He who has been an adept al
snatching a kiss on such an occasion
from aH-too-willing lips stands
abashed before the maiden who is all
sweetness, yet is clothed with a Ger
tain dignity which raises a barriei
over which familiarity on his part
would not dare attempt to cross.
She Is by no means a prude. The
merry, dancing light in her eyes dis
proves that suspicion at once. She
has no fear of any girl friend cutting
her out. She sensibly declares: III
he likes any other girl better than he
does me, would rather help him
than hinder him from getting the one
who can make him happiest." He
marries the reserved sweetheart. Ht
is one of the men not troubled by a
jealous wife. He lives to learn thai
jealousy is no proof of love. Men and
women make the mistake of theil
lives by thinking that it is.

ELECTRIC LINE COMMITTEE

The committee appointed by the president of the Commercial Club in the assem bling of facts and figures to be presented to Epes Randolph in the hopes of securing an intcrurban rail way between Phoenix and this place are becoming enthusiastic and hope to get hearing in the near future. The company already has a line running from Phoenix to Mesa, which is. used only to hold a franchise. The track is laiG with light steel, but heavy enough for electric car service. The only building necessary, it is argued, will be in running the spur from the line north of town to the uptown district and the repairing of the bridge across the river It Tempe It is said that an early ear could be put on of a morning for the purpose of hauling milk to the Tempe creamery, which would increase the service and at the same time form an important revenue for the line. There is a large amount of business done between this place and Phoenix which would naturally go to an cleo tric line if it were placed in opera ton.

The Redmond Stock company pre- sented Paid in Full' to a very appre- ciative audience last night. The mem- bers of the cast acquitted themselves very creditably. The work of Hugh Metcalf as Captain Williams was pecially good, was that of Miss Hammond in the role of Emma Brooks. Ed Redmond in the light comedy role Jimmy Smith, appeared to even better advantage on Monday evening, when he had thf titular role in David Harum." However one of the very best plays presented during the en- gagement of the company at Phoenix will be seen this evening. The offer ing will be Claude Fftch's greatest play entitled Girls" It is safe to say that more Mesa people went to Phoe- nix the week that this play was given during the early spring than for any other attraction by the Redmond com pany.
