The Wingham Advance Times, 1927-10-13, Page 2WINGNAIVI ADVANCE -TIMES F Nabil, For Woolen (By Dorothy Dix) TELE BEST MARRYING AG What is the best age at which to xnar.ry? Twenty-four for women and twenty-eight for men, This is the conclusion at which statisticians have arriv€ll, They say that the boys and girls who marry at twenty and under furnish by far the larger. part of the grist for the divorce mill and that very early marriages are predestined failures. Between the ages of twenty- four and thirty is the best time to enter into matrimony and few such marriages fail. After \thirty the di- vorce rate soars and marriage again becomes a hazardous 'venture. * 4 * These deductions show that the age of discretion in matrimony comes, if ever, at our middle and latter twen- ties. Before that we are too young for marriage. After that we take the road to the altar at our own risk. The girl that a boy of nineteen thought his ideal, bores him to ex- tinction by the time he is twenty-five. The youth who thrilled a girl of sev- enteen cannot raise a single palpita- tion in the heart of a woman of twenty-five. Young marriages come to grief because the boy and girl have fallen out of love with each other. They have grown up and their tastes have. changed. * x, * Tragedy is reached when these dis- illusioned young husbands and wives find their real mate. The boy hus- band isn't willing to . spend, ` his even- ings in the home.. He wants to be out amusing himself, and he puts on his hat after dinner and leaves.a weeping wife - bemoaning her fate. The girl wife doesn't want to be tied down to household duties. She wants to be out with girls of her own age_ * * *" If a couple wait until the woman is 24 and the man 28, they eliminate most of these perils. Their tastes and habits are formed and they choose for life ,companions those who are congenial and who, will not change because they are also mature. They will not look .upon their house as a prison, for they have waited to marry until they are ready to settle down. They have had their fling. They are tired of the flighty pleasures * * * Those wi ea ;marry in the late twin., ties have a better chance of happiness than those who marry very young, because the man has usually found his feet and,is able to provide for his family. Thus both are saved the strain upon affection that conies when a husband's and wife's nerves are stretched to the breaking point with anxiety: over how' the rent is to be paid and where the nest meal is .:om- ing from. * The danger to those who wait until late in life to marry, however, is that after thirty we begin to harden in our characters. We are no longer plastic and we find it difficult to adapt our- -selves to others. We acquire ways that are as the breath of, life to us and it irritates us to have anyone 'in- terfering with our habits. As we grow older we become selfish and are not willing to sacrifice our personal free- dom, even for the sake of. love. This is particularly true of women, espec• Tally business women. FORGET ABOUT YOUR AGE. 'skin smooth and fresh. She keeps her body lithe and trim with plenty ,of exercise; every day she walks miles with a stride that is as lithe and graceful as that of an Indian. But the miracle of this remarkable person is that she never allowed her brain to get rusty or run down. She is mentally alert on each and "every subject and at home with every age, Old people( accept her as an equal and so do the very young, That's because she is ageless ---she has tak- en care of her health and her body. Ai she p(ssed along the Bath' of life she never -allowed the rogue Middle Age ,to steal from her the precious gifts of ' lavish youth, ,_ She , never. thought of years passing because she was too intent upon what she was planning ..for the day. You might wonder yourself how old she is but you would never have the nerve to hang years on such a person—you might just admire het and . envy her and hope she'll stay the same even if site lives tobe so oldthat they have to shoot her at Judgment Day! (13y Anne Jordan) One of the quickest ways in the world 'to "lose the gifts of youth is to watch your calendarto say to yourself, "I'm thirty yearstoday." Inmlediately;you begin to think,you are thirty,` or forty, or fifty, you are! If you begin hunting for the toll that the years have taken, look out, The Bible says 'they. that seek shall find! You'll find gray hairs that you didn't know about, and finding them, you'll look for others. Then you Will start to fret about there until you wrinkle: up your smooth white brow, and you have something else to worry about. People might to be born ,and for pet about it. I know the prettiest and youngest looking wotnan in town and her hair is as white as an. eider- d.own . duck ' in the Winter time. I don't thinkshe ever knew when her hair turned white:. No one else .who knew her noticed it. If shoe has any age there is no telling What it is. That's my idea of cheating time, in- stead of allowing yourself to be rob-. bed bythe years. This friend of mine really eta oyi her white hair. It is en asset to 'her charm. It •makes her face look like a cameo, because she has kept - her As a radio owner, you will appreciate the quality and completeness of our line of' radio supplies. , And, too, you will find us ready at all times to give you expert, courteous service.

' If you . can find some photographs of yourself taken during the war, you'll see how very different the idea of beauty is today. I expect you'll laugh over the fun- ny high waisted dresses we wore then and the bouncy way we did our hair —loojaing -down over , one eyebrow, fluffing over our ears. They don't convey our shining hair and ourdim- ples and our complexion, but these pictures` give us away badly in the fact that we had very little sense of line. Being attractive nowadays is a much more conscious affair than it used to be. It depends very much on your own wits and ingenuity—on making the best of yourself. Your looking -glass is at once your friend. and your enemy worthy of your steel. In the cult of your appearance there are only two mortal, sins, ;des- pair and presumption. Look at your- self critically but not unjustly. You. will find that you have one or two. good points, several indifferent, and one or two downright bad, Don't let the last depress you unduly even if. they are. ,quite incurable. Make up your mind that you will preserve your beauties, improve your mediocrities, and forget all about your defects. Few are real beauties and it is con- soling to realize that you can pretend to be a beauty of a 'type.' If you carefully study your own• looks as well as those of your friends you will begin to see all sorts of new and interesting possibilities in them. Beauty today is something subtle and plastic. DOCTORS ARE PERPLEXED One of the most perplexing ques- tions doctors have to answer is, where to vaccinate a young girl. At one time the left arm was considered the proper place, but short sleeves show- ed an unsightly scar, so the location was changed to the leg. Then ''came a change in skirts and the question is now, where can the' doctor vaccin- ate so that the scar will not be seen: twenty years . hence. MY FAVORITE DISH (By Dorothy Gish) I enjoy going into the kitchen once in a while. My favorite dish is a pear salad, which I make as follows: Two halves pear—preserved. Cream cheese. A little cream. Put lettuce leaf on salad dish and over it half a pear, flat side up.. Mois- ten the cheese with cream and put it over the pear. Cover the cheese with the other half of the fruit. To snake ' the sauce, use two eggs, one-third cup of granulated sugar, a little salt, a little paprika, quarter of a pint of cream.' Separate the whites from the yolks of eggs and beat thein until the white is a stiff froth, Add to the yolks the sugar and mix well. Then add the salt, paprika and the whites, Put the whole in a, double. boiler. When the water in the lower pot boils, keep on stirring the mix- ture until it is thick, If you do not stir it enough it will curdle. When it is thick enough, take from the stove, let it chill, and add the cream. 'Serve the sauce separately. (13y Mary Pickford) It would be very sad if I had to deny thyself sweets in order to retain tuy girlish figure, 'I don't know what I'd do if I had lo give up rich des- serts, But why worry when there isn't an shig to worry about just t t? et.

(By Margaret 13anntcrman, Actress) 'The fact is, it can't be clone! There is no living being who can make love or who is likely to, for love is ready- made. It is'difliettlt to trace the first manufacturer. Many blame Eve, and there is certainly much to bd said for this argument, for according to all accounts, Adam did wander abotit looking for"company. But it is hardly fair to blanc the woman altogether for the introduction of the world's greatest and most fascinating 'r gift; there is some evidence to prove that Adams tempted Eve to. tempt 'him! Adam's Part. When a man is hungry and lonely. it does not take.very much tempting to snake him accept food and sym- pathy from a pretty girl, Apparently Adam was thoroughly tired of being so much on his own, even though the garden was beautiful, and spoke to the first woman he set eyes upon. Realizing he was hungry in more senses than one, she tempted, or .more likely, tantalized, him . by showing him a large rosy apple. He snatched it gild, like the greedy marl he ryas, took the first bite. In other words, he fell in love at first sight, and did. the salve as any sane roan would do in these days -looked for a house. No Judge! The other day an elderly jadge said he thought all :love -snaking was prac- tically the same. I -Tis opinion is worthless. He is all wrong. For in- stance, if a young mart walks clown the street, sees a seductivemaiden, and and snakes up his mind suddenly to marry, there would be trouble if he. rushed up to her and dragged her home. Love is always present, but. temperamentis responsible for the strategic plan, A man madly in love will do many insane -things—try to write poetry, distort his face with a perpetual grin, even live without an appetite, and in his dreams even ntttr- der the imaginary rival. High ,Explosives. Then there is the high explosive sort of love, all adjectives and burn - in warranted r g kisses, Wa to last until things get more serious. then - on with the next. Or perhaps it is the more up-to-date "palship," Coolingly interested, disdainful of affection, in- tellectual, highbrow, scorning depen- dence, pay for own seat in the the- atre, refuse flowers, ' chocolates a perfect unnatural pose—until the in- evitable sideslip, then the maddest of mad passions, and love, love is hardly enotiglil The Old -Fashioned Way. y There used to lit an old --fashioned -way—getting there by suspense. Ex- cellent fare and thrilling. Play the waiting game. Affectiotrate hide-and- seek, Looking for shy—and glances; getting getti g them; going mad in- wardly, but remaining calm, Wait some time then "dIdn' t think you cared" comes out as,a well-nianoea- vered accident. Blushes, half -tittered excuses, a hasty look around, lips meet, unforgettable, embrace, time's up—cheerio, a certain happy life! uI. HINTS F9R THE HOME Scalds and burns can be relieved by applying a poultice. made of oatmeal and cold water. The cooling qualities of the oatmeal help to draw the fire front the burn. To remove fruit stains from the hands, moisten a crust of bread with vinegar and rub on the stains; or grease the hands with lard and then wash with soap and water, Onion juice. applied, immediately will often remove scorch 'stains from, clouting. To clean a shiny coat collar, sponge it with a cloth inoistezied with a lit- tle vinegar.
