Yet, in the face of the lessons they
were supposed to have learned, how
.intolerant they are, ofttimes, concern
ing the love affairs of their children.
Love for their sons and daughters and
icool, sensible judgment have upset
many a youthful love craft when they
collided.
Many a parent has made strenuous
objection to the suit of a young man
who was earnestly .enamored of girl,
for no less a reason than he lived in
a distant town and the daughters mar
riage to him would mean separation
from her, seeing her but rarely, having
her pass out of their lives, as it were,
save for her letters, which might come
to them like angels visits few and far
between. The daughter is hidden to
discourage his attentions, choosing in
stead a sutton in her own home town.
1t is not so easy to estrange hearts
that were intended for each other. The
girl may bend to the decree of par
entail authority, which she believes to
be duty, but it is quite another matter
to become as interested in any other
man. True love cannot be easily up
rooted from the heart. The girl may
dutifully give up the one man who ap-
peals to her This may content the
parents, but what about the daughter?
She may live thereafter life of single
blessedness uncomplainingly yet in
the after years, even though the par
ents may realize they were in grave
error in influencing her life, that does
not atone for the weary years she
must pass after they have left her.
1t is clearly the duty of parents to
give this side of the subject careful
study They have had their youthful
romance which eliminated in mar
riage, therefore they should put them
selves in the daughters place and
reason out the disappointment their
disagreement to approve of her choice
means to her.
Providing a lover is worthy and the
girl cares for him, even though it
means separation-aye the breadth of
the world apart-each parent should
be brave enough to meet the situa-
ton Young folks must marry and go
their ways. 1t will be so until the
end of time. If taking daughter a
long distance away from them is the
only objection they can have against
a wooer, it is poor peg to hang preju-
dice upon Those who have been mar
ried long years and brought up their
families have had their happiness.
why should they deprive their off
spring of theirs? Sacrifices must not
crowd out love.
Those who stand in the way of hon.
orable, worthy wedlock may have
much to think over and regret in the
after years. Not one sweet, affection
ate daughter iii thousand would take
the love reins in her own hands and
marry in defiance to her parents
wishes. She would feel that to do this
would cloud all her after-marital hap
piness.
Parents, think it over! She has
many years to live. Make her life
bright if it is in your power. The sac
rifice of losing her to good man is
by no means bitter one. 54......'

Beauty Hints,

Careless washing and imperfect dry
ing are the reasons for more red, un-
slightly hands than anything else. The
slightest dampness of the skin in cold
weather will make the hands chap
and crack. Hot water should not be
used more than once day at most
for washing the hands, and then they
should be rinsed In cold.
At night, before retiring, when the
hands have been well washed and
dried. rub in a fair quantity of good
cold cream or camphor ice. Then
