Five times married-three very

They were spontaneous and had to be
arranged quickly to head off an irate
parent or two. The other three were
the kind most popular with the brides

The wedding ceremony is particu-

ceremony, and yalks down the aisle,
there is fash of swords, held crossed
over the couple by the bridegroom's

the choice was between Albert J. Beveridge. for.
mer senator. and bull mooser," and Harry New,
sitting senator. While each OF these carried on
vigorous campaign for votes it was noticeable
that neither emphasized any particular issue, for
or against the present administration. The
voters made their selection according to personal
preference, apparently, and the retusns indicate
that Mr.. Beveridgc is the more popular OF the
two. as he has won over New by something like
10000 votes. As gauge for testing the strength
of the Harding administration with the voters
the Indiana primary is not of great service, al
though it may be discounted by the democrats

Women and Words

According to one OF the CHIEF living authori-
ties on linguistics, Prof. Jespersen OF Copen-
hagen, the speech OF women can be differentiated
in several ways from that OF men. Women, he
what is in their minds, and quicker to answer
than men; they confne themselves, as a rule, to
the more ordinary words in the language, and
avoid the recondite and the new; but at the
same time they are given to leaving their SEN
tences unfinished and they are habitually voluble.
The causes Of this difference between the speech
or the talk of the two sexes lie far back in the
occupational history Of each; but the great social
changes are now in progress, which Prof. Jes-
persen thinks may modify present contrasts One
such change, among educated circles at least, is
perhaps already observable In the political field

is that conversation, as it was formerly under
stood, seems to be in danger OF becoming lost
art Over the dinner table the discussion tends
to be more and more OF things, policies,
wizardries, and less of human character and
human motives.
There was a time when our fathers did not
debate politics or the law with their women folk;
nevertheless they listened attentively when their
women folk chose to talk of the men and man
liers of the day. They understood that her de-
taehment from the actual struggle gave woman
position to which man could not aspire She
spoke, in a sense, for the future; in another
sense her praise or blame amounted to re-
estimation of character in terms of values more
enduring than political exigency. Itwas this de-
tachment Of women which made small talk both
interesting and considerable No man Of any i'm

Now if woman still, in her heart, dscerns the

airy validity-London Times.
