After Marriage.

Ynentary letter the other day. She
said. in part: Il am so glad large
proportion of your Chats are for
women like myself who are getting on
toward middle age. The young girls
in their teens don't need them; indeed,
it seems to me they ought TO be dis.
couraged from fussing so much over
their appearance. But married women
like myself are different: we haven't
much tine for beauty culture. and We
don't know anything about it or we
don't care
Ny reader has stated it for me ex-
actly. It's quite true that the young
girl has more time to spend on her
personal appearance generally. though
the business girl often works harder
than the housewifel. But it goes to
something fundamental in the human
race. The young girl must be attrac-
tive; she's instinctively carrying out
the law Of the human race which psy-
biologists call by fancy names. She
must find her mate" marry and pro-
duce children? The psychologists say
that once she's done that she in.
stinctiyely feels that her need for at
tracing is over, and she can let her
self go. Perhaps it's that, perhaps it's
something different.
