THE RIGHT AGE TO MARRY
BY DOROTHY DIX
TIE WORLDS HIGHEST PAID WOMAN WRITER

rant of the practical side of domes-
| tic life.
There are no households more piti-
~, or in which there is less happi-
| ness, than those in which a child
1 wife quarrels with her husband over
tribes, and wastes his money in fool
ish extravagances, and poisons him
on bad cooking, and wres Ties incom-
petently with sickly. teething babies.
The woman OF twenty-five avoids a
million mistakes the child wife makes
because she has learned before mae
rage. instead of afterwards. to be
tactful, forebearing and how to han
die money and make a comfortable
| home
But, as girl should not marry too
young. neither should she wait until
she is too old. The woman who waits
until she Is much more than twenty
1 five to marry finds that she is grow
ing cynical about men and that moth
ing short of pin-feathered mascu-
line angel can come up to her de-
mands. Therefore. she is apt not to
| marry at all. or if she does, to be-
come one of those unpleasant wives
who correct their husbands faults in
public, and make them feel as II
they had stern school mistress
camped on their hearthstone.
The woman who waits until late to
marry also finds that she has formed
habits and ways that II is hard to
give up even for husband. She
cannot merge her personality into an
other as a younger woman can, be-
I cause 1t is only in youth that we are
| fluid.
So the golden age OF twenty-five is
about the best age at which to mar
~. By that time girl has attained
wisdom II she is ever going to have
any. and she is still young enough to
learn to keep step with the man she
marries

Prince of Wales is
Joked by Mess Mates

Paris. Jan. 1s.-The Prince of Wales
got his share of 'ragging' when he
fraternized with the men of the
army in France. He sat at mess one
day opposite joker who did not know
him, but who noticed the number Of
medal ribbons the prince wore. HUI
To-" said the Joker. where do you
come from and where did you get all
the pretty ribbons? Be careful when
you visit Paris. It's quite an expensive
place" The prince took the joking
good naturedly and kept up his end
till the telephone rang and someone
answered, "Yes, the prince is here"
Then the Joker learned who it was he

theirs first triple followed, scoring
Neale and Wingo. Cicotte was
plainly nervous and a conference
was held in the center of the dia-
mond. Rath was smiling as he
faced the pitcher, and doubled to
left, putting Ruether across the
plate. Daubert singled over second,
scoring Ratf. Five men had scored,
and Manager Gleason at this point
sent his favorite twirler to the
bench.
Wilkinson, who had had a brief
warming up, went into the box. He
was in more or less trouble much
of the time, but managed to stay the
slaughter until the seventh, when il
was renewed. Daubert tripled into
the right field crowd and scored on
Groh's single to center. Roush laid
down perfect bunt to Weaver
whose throw to Gandil compelled
the latter to stretch so far that the
umpire called the runner safe on a
close decision. Duncan grounded
to Risberg and Roush was forced al
second, while Groh scored on the
play.

Manager Gleason led forth third
pitcher in the person of Loudermilk

with single to left and he advanced

Hit Ball Viciously.
In the fifth the visitors seemed de-

spite their commanding lead. They
hit the ball viciously and got three
men on bases, but none reached the
counting station. Gandil started with
a single back of first base, Risberg
sent Roush into deep center after
his long drive, but the fielder not
only captured it, but held Gandil at
first. Schalk hit a singing ground

caught up with the ball in time to
force Gandil at second. Wilkinson

retired the side.
