Woman Would iio Wail To Plan For Time Altar iihiiiiren Marry

' We glorify girlhood and are filled with compassio for old women. but 1n between youth and age there is a stretch of years that is a sort of No Womarfs Land in which middle-aged mother wander about like lost souls without plan nor purpose, not knowing what to.do with the time that hangs so heavily on their hands.

They have been busy rearing their families and making a home for

their husbands. Every child has been a new and exciting interest to them. There has never been a dull moment in their lives, for while they were often tired and worn and overworked. they were never bored. The baby was cutting a. new tooth, or Mamie was sterprping out with

We tried to see who could spit the farthest through the opening caused by the loss or one or mare front teeth. 1f a tooth became loose. we thought we were brave fellows if we pulled it out with a piece oi string. we had been told we would get our real set of teeth in a short time.

What we and our parents did not know is that Nature meamt that the ﬁrst, or milk set, should develop completely. During this develop- ment the second or permanent set also is growing and developing and is already behind (above or below) the ﬁrst set. ready to take their places when the milk set is (one. It is by leaving the ﬁrst teeth in their places until fully developed that "room" for the second teeth is maintained. This means that the second set will have room. and also that the face and Jaws will develop
