we have planned a little surprise party

you along, and would like It mighty

r i "Well, i got a wheelbarrow ana' went
frilling around, gathering up all the
id junk I could find, and I was quite
tnthusiastio over the Job.. I saw Bise
low and Traphagen winking and grin
ning at each other, but I supposed they
were merely In good spirits as I was
and didn't suspect a plot. But when
I had my wheelbarrow full of Junk
there was the worst, explosion that
ever happened in this state.
jj "Bigelow had placed a big cannon
Cracker that weighed about five pounds
in ant old asparagus can and of course
I plotted It up and put it in my wheel
barrow. About a million old rusty
cans' and dead cats and things flew
trr and hit me., in various olaces and
knotted me off my feet, and two women

go alone. So, although. I had a dim sus

where, I finally' yielded and went along.
"We went down to the river, and I
sat under a tree and began reading a

began fishing. The first thing I knew
something cold. and. clammy and heavy

At what age should you marry? Is
marriage between a boy and a girl
likely to lead to greater happiness-thah
that of a mature man and woman? Or,
does. age play little if any part in de
termining the matter?
Such questions have been asked Count'
less millions, of times in the past. . In
all likelihood, they will be asked as
frequently in the future. Yet the prob
lem which they present is no nearer a
solution today than it was a thousand
op! more -years ago. The reason we can'
find no answer to the question is that
so much depends upon individual char
acter and so little upon general prin
ciples that it Is Impossible to formulate
a rule that will fit even & mau ma
jority of cases.: . ; -.
The man and the maid -who are in
love! are different from other Individ?
uals.' TheV live In a different world a
world of their own creation a world
in which 'the experiences and customs
sanctioned by other r peppier have no
practical application.. If they make. up
thellr'mlnds to marry,; theyv willjparry
their determination into effect lnsplte
6f all the obstacles which may be put
In .their . way. Boys and girls "who- have
scarcely passed the bounds of childhood,
arrange their future without regard to
the wishes of their elders, or May, weds
December, though tha world lifts its
hands in horror. And, strangely enough,
there are no statistics to show us that
happiness may not be reached by either
road. ,': 'c -.' .,"':
Oneff act -which--w of ten-forget is
that true love Is one of the - greatest
Of-all adjusters of difference The
girl who feels the awakening; touch of
love ceases to be a child, and no elixir
of youthtjivhlch has yet been discovered
has so rejuvenating an effect upon trie
heart-a-the thrust-of Cupid's, tiny
arrow. Even the fact that a fleeting
fancy is frequently; mistaken for posi
tive symptoms of love throws - no new
light, upn the problem, for such mis
haps occur In the most carefully ar
ranged marriages quite as often as they
do irt those atwhjcfi the world protests
roost emphatically. - - - . .
t So far as we have any ' information
to guide us, there js evidence to support
the. opinion that comparatively early,
marriage Is best, for the lad at. least.
Wheh a man la aliigle he is apt to get
into the habit of considering nobody but
himself. As a result it, Is the eelfiii
side of. his nature' which is developed,
usually aV,,ye expenaB of the generous
and manly traits which must assort
themselves, if matrimony hi to bring
rent happiness. Nor Is this the most
serious side of the question In tho case
of many a young man. .With nobody
to . question his goings and comings-
with fancy free to wander In any direc
tion In which the wind may chance to
blow it is not surprising that his ex
cursions should ' often lead him into
foolish extravagances and injurlousdl8-'
glpations... i.
Man is a social animal. Indeed, there
are few oris whoncan find lsatisfaetion
in our own'company for many hours at,
a time. Jf this desire for companion
ship' takes the right direction our .social
traits' become to us an -important source
of mental and moral development, but
let them lead, us into bad company and
there are. lew depths of evil to whlcli
we may not descend, r ,
It is In this' respect that -love assumes
the rolo .of a moral factor. ' Affection:
for.! ft good wornan seldom falls to act
ha en inspiration to purity. Breeding
the desire to be more worthy of the
affection which the soul craves, love
acts aa a magnet to draw tha lover
back into the path of virtue and honor.
