Beauties of Maturity

more beautiful than the illusions of
youth If we have used care in the
stitching.
Even If we have marred the design.
we have the added experience which
youth lacks, and we are prepared to
do better work on the next pattern
given by the Great Artist. Too late.
There is no such thing as any knowl-
