Mainly For Women
(By Dorothy Dix)
'WISE ONES MARRY IN THEIR
OWN CLASS
(By Dorothy Dix)
There is no problem connected with
marriage which seems to bulk so
large in the public mind, as the mat-
ter of age,What is the ideal age to
marry is the common question. What
difference should there be in the age
of husband and wife? Should a wo-
man marry a man ten years younger
than herself? Should a young girl
marry an old man? At first glance
it would seem that many things have
a more important bearing on the suc-
cess or failure of marriage than how
many birthdays the contracting part-
ies have had Such things as mutual
affection,, congeniality, religion, mon-
ey tastes, habits and so on, but in
the long run all of these simmer down
to the question of age.
What we are and what we ffiink
and what we do and what we want to
do depends altogether upon our age.
Between 17 and 70 there is a chasm
that neither love nor duty can. span '
and over which no man or woman
may walk to happiness. And this
gulf between age was never so wide
as it is today. As for the ideal time
to marry, as near as it can be reduced
to figures, it is anywhere between 25
and so for men and 20 and 4o for;
women, but there are a thousand ex-
ceptions to this' rule.
It is a mistake for the very young
to marry, because they are running a
double risk on the kind of men and
women they will make themselves, as
well as on the sort 'of husbands and
wives they are getting, and marriage
is a big enough gamble at best with-
out injecting, any foolhardy chances
into it. The tastes and habits of a
boy and girl are unformed and, those
who fascinate them in their salad days
may bore them to death in their ma-
turity.' Moreover, if they marry be-
fore they have had their play time
they always feel they have been cheat-
ed. Most of the unfaithful wives and
husbands are those who married too
young.
Moreover, the' boy husband, rarely
makes enough to support a family in
comfort and loves flies out ofthe
window when the bill -collector be-
gins pounding at the door• It takes
a deeper passion, more patience and
self-control than children have to en-
dure poverty together and still feel
they have all as long as they have
each other. Hence quarrels and sep-
arations. The difference in age be-
tween husband and wife doesn't mat-
ter unless it is too great. A few years
either way is of no consequence. Age
cannot be computed by the calendar.
It is a matter of soul, of tempera-
ment.
The difference between real age and
official age is particularly marked in
women and that is what makes it
quite safe for a quiet, thoughtful girl
to marry a man twenty years older
than she is, especially if he is the
kind who has kept himself young and
enthusiastic.' But this rule does not
work both ways, and it is a disas-
trous thing for a woman to marry a.
man much younger than she is. Per-
haps that is because men are less a-
daptable than women• or perhaps it is
because women are older at the same
age than men are. Anyway, such
marriages are never successful,
This does not mean . that elderly
men and women should not marry.
On the contrary, those who have come
to the twilight zone of life need com-
panionship far more than they ever
did before. The young can runaround
and amuse themselves. The old must
find it in their own homes and women
past fifty are wise if they marry if.
they can find a suitable mate in their
own class. This enables them to main -
someone to whom they can say 'don't
somebody to whom they can say'don't
you retnember?' Somebody to watch
over them when they are ill and to
walk hand in hand with them down
the last lap of the journey. And so,
after all, age is an important thing'
to consider in marriage.
MAKING SLIP COVERS ?
(By Marjorie' Adams)
Not long ago I learned a delightful-
ly easy and infallable way of making
slip covers for furniture and am anx-
ious to tell our readers about it. First
cut a strip of cover material wide
enough to reach from the floorin:
eral inches at either side slid long
enough to reachf tom the floor in
front to the floor behind, with four'
inches tucked away in a crease at the
back of the seat, Irin firmly to pre-
vent it from slipping,
Then, pin in plaits for art ample

seam at frontof seat and two seams
at the top of the back. Be. careful to
get these exact so the cover will not
slip or sag. Where the material ex-
tends beyond the width of the chair at
the top of the back, slit the plaits to.
chair widths and pin in the side pieces
which will extendjust below' the chair
arms
Next, slit the material to fit over
arid around the arm where it joins the
back and the seat. Run the scissors
along the inside join of the arm and
seat, leaving two and a half inches for
.yuck -in: Slit the plait at the front of
the seat to chair width on either side,
Next, pin pieces for the inside and
top of each at•ni. Be sure to allow two
and a half inches for tuck in on each
side piece, Then phi the large side
piecesand trim off surplus material.
The next step is 'to pin in. pieces for
the front of each of arm being sure to
catty thein to the base of the nun
The final step in the making of a slip
cover is the taping. The seams down
the inside of the arm and along the
joist of the arm and the seat iare not
taped but sewed on the inside, Tape
the other seams in this order: ;across
the corner of the back, the front of
the arras, the seat front, around the
face of the back, along inside edges

Of arms, from back 'dawn to the bot -

It is best to use a material that has
been shrank. If it hasn't half an inch
must be allowed in the seams for
lengthwise shrinkage and a quarter of
an inch for crosswise shrinkage.
LINEN'S OF RAINBOW HUE
Color has invaded the linen closet,
colored sheets and pillow cases to pas-
tel shades have found their way to
the stores. The popularity of the col-
ored linens is still an open question
and the fad may pass quickly, so don't
stock up heavily until you become
better aequainted with these linens.
The colors are fast, so it is only a
matter that you may become tired of
the colors.
Summer blankets come bordered to
match the popular 'linens and the dain-
ties embroidered dimity spreads have
an underslip of the matching shade,
Embroidered linen spreads are also
made to match the other linens and
are both durable and attractive. The
embroidery is the old fashioned, vel-
vet and solid work with the scalloped
or pointed edge finished with button-
holing. In some cases there is a wide
linen lace set underneath so that the
scallops or points rest on it which
makes the spreads a little more dres-
sy. They are made long enough to
cover pillows also.
There are new cotton spreads that
have colored inside and edge borders
with a wreath of color in the middle,
in the centre of which the initial may
be embroidered. These spreads are
hemmed on the edge with a narrow
hem. Rayon spreads are used fre-
quently, plain with a hemstitched hem
and they launder satisfactorily. Little
lingerie pillows to match add to the
dainty appearance of the bed,.
We have become rather accustomed
to having our towels colorful and
most of us are ,pleased with the inno-
vation. Cross stitch baskets of gay
flowers appear above the colored :lin
en applied hem, or a group 'of open
fans is embroidered above the hem.

Liven a lonely tramp,
A terror to neighbors around;
He has often been sought
But has never been caught;
His hiding no mortal has found.
In midnights dark hours
In midnight's dark hours
And away thru the country he speeds,
Where' he enters the doors
