James had in- quired with a show of curiosity, but even before we had time to reply. though letting fall a remind- er to us to have the meal on time. he was gone again to his work at the barns.

We like Monday to send us away without vexing or unfortun- ate incident. and already two had appeared. with obvious concern over the happening. James had reported quite early that a ewe. mother to new-born -twins "does not seem to be taking up with them". However this stir on the boocrm of our quiet stream of life was fading and the place was settling back into its usual state of calm when mother item and much more distressing came to our hands.

DEAR MlsS'DIX: At what age is a girl considered an old msigi and at what age is a man considered an old bachelor? . THREE OLD MAIDS

ANSWER: These terms are virtually obsolete. Men and women are spoken of as young or old.,but they are not put into any particular class because they are not married. The nearest definition that I can give is to say that a woman is an old maid when she gives up hope of marrying. and a man is an old bachelor when he determines not to marry. and these states of mind may he arrived at at any age.
