Before the beginning of years There came to the making of man mme, with a gift often-a; Grief with a glass that ran; rleasure. with pain for leaven; Summer. with flowers that fell; Remembrance fallen from heaven.

TIPS ON BUYING FUR NIOKPIEOIS ' Going to buy s fur scar! this spring? ~ If you are, because of a general softening up of prices throughout the fur industry, here are pointers which may prove helpful in mak- ing a good investment. Full-skin scarfs may have as flew as t\vo skins, which make smart ascot-like effects; as many as l0 skins, which provide spec- tacular drapery. You can buy a modest scarf of fiwo skins now, if a budget is lim- ited. and increase size and showi- riess by adding matching skins when your funds permit. On this score. furriers who build up scarf: tom modest beginnings by match- ing. re-blending and rearranging skins, caution you not to wait rnake additions. Within that per- iod oi time original skins are fair- ly safe from deterioration. Tests oi quality oi fur are siikiness. good colour. density which are also popular this season are fiich. fox and kolinsky. The last-mentioned fur is successfully trested and dyed to simulate mink or sable skins. CARE OF EYES The eyes ahould not develop strain under good lighting condi- tions say health authorities. but. if they do. an optometrist should be seen and corrective measures taken. CONDITIONS LISTED HERE SAID T0 MAKE HER HQPPY A woman commentator says that to be happy a woman needs: A man who recognizes her gocd qualities and is willing to put. up with her faults. At least one woman friend with whom she can be honest. Children so that her maternal in- stincts won't be misplaced or com- pletely thwarted. Enough work so that she never has to cook up ways o! killing time. At least. one interest outside hcr family ns an oulet for self-expres- sion. A home of her own which she can run to suit herself. A plan for the future so that lshe is always working toward some Igoal. more than two or three years to‘ The capacity to throiv off petty annoyances so that they can never get her down.

In the figures of the "average" weight tables. allowance is made for age. which would be correct in. WT “E1‘0Wl"8" Period-teen age all"! 11D t0 27. in men and 25 .-n| women. Generally tpeaking. as” some men and women mature lawn than these ages. the age of 30 isl now considered the ideal weight for the rest of our lives. k it is true. of course, that we] know of many cases where the underweight put on just the right amount of needed weight after the age of 30. and some took off their excess welghVto brim; them to normal Oi‘ ideal treight. Bu-t this ls not the general rule. The mistake in height and Weight tables which we have nnt been able to entirely correct is in not making allowance for the dlf-' ference in “build," oi- pllYSlque, of men and‘ women, We try to correct this by allowing less weight for slender individuals for their height, and more for the stout or stocky individual.

Nevertheless the one thing that women fear and dread more than anythlll! e158 in U16 WOfld l5 B86- They consider that Time is their deadliest enemy. _ Most women envy young girls. They need not. In reality. a young girl is a. poor, defenceless little creature. with only one ace in the liole. Good looks. And if Nature fails to lavish upon her a. peaches-and-cream com- plexion. a. "ivlllowy figure and naturally wavy hair. she is lost. Sunk. She has nothing with which to cover up her defects. No artifice with which she can camouflage her lack of attraction. Not so the huddle-aged woman. She has a thousand resources at her command. and if she loses out on one she can cash in on another. Above all. she has acquired the skill in playing the game that only experience can give. For to know how to live you must have lived. You must have learned to know other people and how to adjust yourself to them. You must have learned to be adaptable t/o circumstances. You must. have learned how to give and take. You must have learned not to be overly puffed up by success o" too cast down by defeat. AGE LENDS SERENITY No young girl can know these things, but they are the consolation prizes that Time brings in its hands to a woman. and it is what gives the middle-aged woman her serenity, her tolerance. her philosophic viewpoint. and makes her a companion of whom you never weary, whereas you tire of a sweet young thing as soon as you have had a good look at her pretty face. - Then by the time a woznan is middle-aged she can have made herself so interesting that her looks do ‘not really matter. it is only after siie has known love and marriage and birth and death and strug- gle and strain. and has laughed and cried and thought and tried to solve the meaning of things. that she has anything to say that is worth listening to. intelligence may not be a substitute for youth and beauty at first _ glance. but it. beats them out for the long pull. As a matter of fact. we never think of a wouiairs age or looks. so long as she keeps us entertained and amused. When you hear it said that a man has for- siken his wife because she is old, it ls generally a misstatement. What he has really left her for ls because she is dull arid stupid and bored liim to death. And chief oi all the good things that 'l‘iirie brings a woman is uiiderstaiiiiiiig. Sympathy. Knowledge of how to sliiooth other people's iui- the right way. No young girl has that.| It ls the treasure-trove oi years of living. and when a wcman has acquired that, tlieii Time and experience have given her n charm far above any the youth possesses. if women would only have the wisdom lo accept the gifts that Time brings them. they would come to know that the passing oi the years are not to be looked upon with such drca-d.
