Useful
Hints
Making Matches
Why the Mother Should Take This
Role to Aid Daughters.
by "W. VI. ="

Mothers ought TO be matchmak erS
but Of tho right kino--not husband
hunters, who only seek to see thci,
daughters married to wealth, ana posi-.
ton, With no thought of their ultimat
happiness.
The mother of n family of grown-u NJ
daughters Is sometimes afraid of being
dubbed n matchmaker" though in he,
heart she wants to see her girls happily
married. There is nothing wrong in
this. And, after ali, how is the average
man of moderate means to cultivate
an acquaintance with Il girl he admi~es
unless he has opportunities Of seeing
her from time 10 time? He cannot
AFFORD 10 he constantly taking her out
nor would he be allowed to do So
The very type Of mother who cries:
NO one can ever accuse me OF en-
couraging my daughters admirers." is
also the first To cNclaim against her
girls spending any length OF time un-
chaperoned with men to whom they
are not formally engaged
Wins His Admiration
worried and one of the girls quietly
and tactfully mothers him and coaxcs
him from irri,ability to good temper
tho visitor uncorsciously longs FOR
similar ministrations aud ho begins
10 imagine what his own home would
be like with that particular woman
ruling IL.
And when he sees a girl capable and
nj in Ia. i,t n
helpful TO her mother he is uncun-
sciously drawn towards her. and each
time he leaves the house his ndmira-
tion for her has Increased.
This question of a mothers encour
agement OF her young daughters I'D
mirers, too, gives her opportunities of
studying the young men herself. She
knows quite well, that in nine eases out
of ten. the man who has anything to
hide OF which he is ashamed will not
bring himself very frequently under
the older peoples notice. If he does
come he is pnlpaply III at ease: and.
after u time when he steadily refuses
to visit the girls home. where he knows
he is sure OF welcome so long as he
behaves In an upright and honest man

sort, have nothing more to do with
him.
Girls whose mothers and fathers are
acquainted with their friends, male, or
female, arc not generally the kind TO
need stern restrictions and commands
from their elders before they arrive
at right Judgment OF character They
arc usually honest and open in their
own actions, and quite capable Of form
ing n clear sighted estimate of the
character Of others.
So that the "matchmaking" mother al
tho right Eind--a cheerful! hostess and
true frfcnd--often succeeds in max :

brings into play their own Judgment

In the blood.
Not long ago a man came to me
who was nearly half century old and
asked me to give him preliminary
examination for life insurance. l was
astonished to find him with blood

Of vigor, vim and vitality as young
man; in act, young man he really

secret, he said, was taking iron-Nux-
ated Iron had filled him with renewed

at forty-six he was care worn and near

vitality and his face beaming with the
Luoyancy of youth. Iron is absolutely
necessary to enable your blood to
change food into living tissue. With
out it, no matter how much or what
on eat, your food merely passes
through you without doing you any
good. You don't get the strength out
of it, and as a consequence you be-
come weak, pale and sickly looking,
just like a plant trying to grow in a
soil deficient in iron. If you are not
strong or well. you owe it to yourself
to make the following test: See how
long you can work or how far you can
walk without becoming tired. Next
take two five-grain tablets of ordinary
ruxated iron three times per day after
meals for two weeks. Then test your
strength again and see how much you
have gained. I have seen dozens of
nervous, rundown people who were
ailing all the while double their
strength and endurance and entirely
rid themselves of all symptoms of dys-
pepsia, liver and other troubles in
from ten to fourteen days time simply
by taking iron in the proper form. And
this, after they had in some cases been
doctoring for months without obtain
ing any benefit. But don't take the
old forms of reduced iron, iron acetate.
or tincture OF iron simply to save a
few cents. The iron demanded by
