They must be primly neat. If you make oné, make it from an inch and a half to two inches wide for the ends of sleeves. Then it is wide enough to keep the rjeeve clean about the wrist. For other edges, they may have to be narrower to fit nicely in place. For sleeve ends they may be cut on the straight, but for curved or slant edges they should be precisely cut on the bias, (Copyrignt, 1931) . Vienna Bread.

THA‘I’ is a question that it & impossible to answer definitely beeause there are so many things that are so much mol:!nlmmnt in m s ere arriage is intel- ligence, for one thing, what we call good, hard, hotse sense. There are character, and disposition, and philcsophy and humor. There are good nature xd good sportemanship. People who have these qualities may marry ahywhere between the craflie and the grave and make a go of it And if they lack these qun‘llUu they will never be young enough to adjust themselves to another individual's rnommy, And they will nevet hknald enough to learn how to handle a husband or 4 wife with tact and esse. than the ages of the high contractin "THEN there is the matter of money, which is of almost paramount importance in marriage. Some men can afford to marry much earlier than others, just as one can afford to set up a yacht when he i 20, while another has to wait until he is middie-aged before he has the price and can afford the upkeep of a rowboat. Of course, it s true that marriage s one of the things in which neither age, brains nor previous experience seems of any avall or to teach any Wwisdom. Everyday we see mature men making as foolish marriages a3 any adolescent boy could make. We see shrewd, hard-headed men of affairs, who would not go into the smallest trade without investigating every detail of it, marrying women of whom they know absolutely nothing. HOW!VIH, for all of that, there is & time for marrying, and a time for sta) single, and, in my opinion, the preferred time for & man to embark g‘nn.thz sea of matrimony 18 when he is around the thirties. Then, If ever, he has found himself. His tastes are settled and he knows the kind of woman he wants for a wife. He is still young enough to be romantie, but he is past the calf lovg stage when he thinks he is in love with every passing flapper. He is established in business and is maki enough to support & family in decent comfort, 80 he can enjoy his wife and children instead of their being a crushing burden on him. Above all, he has had his fiing and he is ready to settle down and be a fireside companion instead of ex- pecting his wife to stay at home and mind the children while he steps out of an evening. TH!RE are exceptions to all rules, and occasionally the boy-and-girl marriage does turn out happily, but when it does it is pure luck. For it is mere chance when they develop along the sqme lines. Nearly always one outgrows the other and by the time they are grown up they have fought their way to the divorce court or else one of them s doomed to the unspeakable horror of being chained for life to the corpse of a dead love. Heaven knows there are enough risks in marriage anyway without & boy or girl gambling on what they are going to be them- selves and what they are going to need in a lifé partner when they are men and women.
