Women Seek T0.lV0|l| Lonely Destiny by iillooeisg Younger Husbands l

more years than ‘men. have, and this has led aacientiet to urge them than themselves in order to minimize idows. '

is is a most interesting suggestion of how to solve a. perplexing problem, for it is a matter of common knowledge that the world is filled with widows, most. of whom would like to remarry, but whose chances of reaching the altar again are slim

So the plan of having women take out insur- ance against widowhcod by marrying lads much younger than themselves is an inspiration, the only difficulty being whether the young men would pre- _ fer settled women to little play-fellows as wives. Unfortunately, the masculine taste seems to run to bobby-soxers as wives, instead of ladies who resemble their maiden aunts. And, gen- erally speaking. it. is only widows with fat pocketbooks who rate boy

orfuswomen in the world who are more pathetic than widows. And .does not mean specifically those devoted wives who lose their all sbands. Theirs is the heartbreak that makes widowhood a never-en ling tragedy.

But while one would think that s. woman who had had a mean frigging“, W012: ting pecans of Joy undel- her breath at being freed . a a wild horses couldnt drag her to the altar again, curiously enough such is seldom the case.
