THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, J ATTCTARY, 2C; r 18C9.- Mature Sirens. rom the London Saturday Review. Nothing ia more incomprehensible than the love and admiration sometimes given t mid-ale-aged women. They cannot nnderstand it; nd nothing but exporienoe will ever make them understand it. In their eyes, a woman s oat of the pale of personal affection altoge ther when she has onoe lost that shining gloss of youth, that exqaisite freshness of skin and Wppleness of limb which to them. In the inso lent plenitude of their nnfaded beauty, con ititute the chief clairHs to admiration of their ex. And yet they cannot conceal from them lelves that the belle of eighteen is often de serted for the woman of forty, and that the patent witchery of their own youth and pretti lieBS goes for nothing against the mysterious charms of a mature siren. What can they say to such an anomaly? There is no good going about the world disdain fully, wondering how on earth a man could ever have taken tip with such an antiquated crea ture snggeetively asking their male friends what could he see in a woman of her age, old enough to be their mother ? There the fact stands, and facts are stubborn things. The eligible suitor who has been coveted by more than one golden-haired girl has married a woman twenty years her senior, and the middle-aged jiiren has actually carried off the prize which nymphs in their teens have fran tically desired to win. What is the secret r How is it done f The world, even of silly girls, Las got past any belief in spells and talismans, such as Charlemagne's mistress wore, and yet the man's fascination seems to them quite as miraculous and almost as un holy as if it bad been brought about by the black art. But if they had any analytical power they would understand the diablerie of the mature sirens clearly enough, for it is not so diffioult to nnderstand when one puts one's mind to it. In the 11 ret place, a woman of ripe age has a knowledge of the world and a certain suavity of manner and moral llexibility wholly want ing to the young. Young girls are for the most part all angles harsh in their judg ments, stiff in their prejudices, and narrow in their sympathies. They are full of ooinbat iveness and self-as3ertion if they are of one kind of young people, or they are stupid and Bhy if they belong to another kind. They are talkative with nothing to say, and positive with nothing well and truly known; or they are monosyllabic dummies who stammer out "Yes" and "No" at random, and whose brains become hopelessly confused at the first sentence a stranger utters. They are gene rally without pity, their want of experience making them hard towards Borrows which they scarcely understand, and, let us chari tably hope, to a certain extent ignorant of the pain they inlliut. That famous article in the Times on the cruelty of young girls, Apropos of Constance Kent's con fession, though absurdly exaggerated, had in it the core of truth which gives the sting to such papers, which makes them stick, and Which is the real cause of the outcry they create. Girls are cruel; there is no question about it. If more passive than active, they are simply indifferent to the sufferings of others; it ot a more active temperament, they find a positive pleasure in giving pain. A girl Will say the most cruel things to her dearest mend, ana then langli at her because she cries. Even her own mother she will hurt and humiliate if she can; while, as for any un fortunate aspirant not approved of, were he as tough-skinned as a rhinoceros she would find means to make him wince. But all this aeerbity is toned down in the mature woman. Experience has enlarged her sympathies, and knowledge of suffeiing has softened her heart life, too, have taught her tact; and taut is one of the most valuable lessons that a man or woman can learn. She sees at a glance where are the weak points and sore places in her companion, and she avoid them ; or if she passes 'over them, it is with a hand so soft and tender, a touch so inexpressibly soothing, that she calms imtead of irritating. A girl would have come down upon the weak places heavily, and would have torn the bandages off the sore ones, jesting at scars because she herself had never felt a wound, and deriding the sybaritism of diachylon because ignorant of the anguish it conceals. Then the mature siren is thoughtful for others. Girls are self asserting and aggressive. Life is so strong in them, and the instinot which prompts them to try their strength with all others, and to get the best of everything everywhere, Is so irrepressible that they are often disagree able because of their instinctive selfishness, and the craving, natural to the young, of taking all and giving back nothing. Bat the mature siren knows better than this. She knows that social success depends entirely on what each of us can throw into the common fund of society; that the surest way to be considered oui selves is to be con siderate for others; that sympathy begets liking, and self-suppression leads to exalta tion; and that if we want to gain love we must show how well we can give it. Her tact then, and her sympathy, her moral ilexi bility and quick comprehension of character, her readiness to give herself to others, are some of the reasons, among others, why the society of a cultivated agreeable woman of a certain age is sought by those men to whom women are more than mere uiistre3sea or toys. Besides, she is a good conversationalist. She has no pretensions to auy special or deep learning for, if pedantic, she is spoilt as a siren at any age but she knows a little about most things; at all event, she knows enough to make her a pleasant companion, and able to keep up the ball whln throwu. And men like to talk to intelligent women. They do not like to be taught or connoted by them, but they like that quink svmpaihetiu intellect which follows them readily, and that amount of knowledge which niukus a comfortable cushion for their own. And a mature niren who knows what she in about would never do score than this, even if she could. Though the mature siren rest her claims to aduiiratiun on more than inure personal charms, and appeals to souieihiug beyond the Benees, yet the Is personable and well pre served, and, in a favorable lij?ht, looks nearly as young as ever, bo the men say wno Knew when she was twenty, who loved her then, and have gone on loving lior, with a difference, despite the twenty yeari that lie between this and then. Girls, indeed, den pise her charms because the is no longer young; and yet she may be even more beautiful than youth. She knows all the little niceties of dress, and without going into the vulgar trickery of paint and dyes which would make her hideous is np to the beet arts of the toilut by which every point ia made to tell, aud every minor beauty is given its fullest value. Tor part of the art and mystery of sirenhood is an accurate perception of times and con ditions, ami a careful avoidance of that enloidal mistake of which la ' femme vnsse'e is so often guilty namely, setting her self in confessed rivalry with the young by trying to look like them, and bo losing the good of what she has retained, and show ing the ravages of time by the contrast. The mature siien is wiser than this. Bhe knows exactly what she has aud what she cau do, tad, before all things, avoids whatever seems too youthful for her years; aud this ia one reason why Bhe is always beautiful, because alwaya in harmony. Beside, she has rery many good points, many positive oharms still left. Her figure is still cood not slim and slender certainly, but round and soft, and with that slower, riper, lazier grace which is something quite different from the antelope like elasticity of youth, and in its own way as lovely. If her hair has lost its maiden luxuriance, she makes np with crafty arrangements of lace, which are almost as picturesque as the fashionable wisp of hay like ends tumbling half-way to the waist. She has still her white and shapely hands with their pink filbert-like nails; still her pleasant smile and square small teeth; her eyes are bright yet, and if the upper muscles are a little shrunk, the consequent apparent enlargement of the orbit only makes them more expressive; her lips are not yet withered, her skin is not wrinkled. Undeniably, when well dressed and in a favorable light, the matnre siren is as beautiful in her own way as the girlish belle, and the world knows it and acknowledges it. That mature sirens can be passionately loved, even when very mature, history gives us more than one example; and the first name that naturally occurs to one's mind as the type of this is that of the too famous Ninon de 1' Kudos. And Ninon, if a triile mythical, was yet a fact and an example. But not going quite to Ninon's age, we often see women of forty and upwards who are personally charm ing, and whom men love with as much warmth and tenderness as if they were in the heyday of life women who count their ad mirers by dozens, and who end by making a superb marriage and having quite an Indian summer of romance and happiness. The young laugh at this idea of the Iudian summer for a bride of forty-five; but it is true; for nei ther romance nor happiness, neither love nor mental youth, is a matter of years; and after all vk are only as old as we feel, and certainly no older than we look. All women do not harden by time, nor wither, nor yet corrupt. Borne merely ripen and mellow and get enriched by the passage of the years, re taining the most delicate womanliness we had almost said girlishness into quite old oge, and blushing under their grey hairs while they shrink from anything coarse or vulgar or impure as sensitively as when they were girls. La fttnme a quarante arts is the French term for the opening of the great gulf beyond which love cannot pass; but human history disproves this date, and shows that the heart can remain fresh and the person lovely long after the age fixed for the final adieu to admiration, and that the matnre siren can be adored by her own contemporaries when the rising genera tion regard her as nothing better than a chimney-corner fixture. Mr. Trollope has re cognized the claims of the mature siren in his "Urley Farm" and "Miss Mackenzie;" and no one can deny the intense naturalness of the characters and the interest of the stories. Another point with the mature woman is that she is not jealous nor exacting. She knows the world and takes what comes with the philosophy that springs from knowledge. If she is of an enjoying nature and she can not be a syren else she acoepts such good as lloats "to the top without looking too deep into the cup and speculating on the time when she shall have drained it to the dregs. Men feel safe with her. If they have entered on a tender friendship with her, they know that there will be no scene, no tears, no upbraid ictrs, when an inexorable fate comes in to end their pleasant little drama, with the inevitable wife as the Ecene-shifter. The mature siren knows so well that fate and the wife must break in between her and her friend, that she ia resigned from the first to what is fore doomed, and so accepts her bitter portion, when it comes, with dignity and in silence. Where younger women would fall into hyste rics and make a scene, perhaps go about the world taking their revenge in slander, the middle-aged woman holds out a friendly hand, and takes the back seat gallantly, never showing, by word or look that she has felt her deposition. She becomes the best friend of the new household; and, if any one is jealous, ten to one it ia the husband that is jealous of her love for his wife, or per haps it is the wife herself, who cannot see what her husband can find to admire so much in Mrs. A., and who pouts at his extraordi nary predilection for her, though of course she would scorn to be jealous as, indeed, she has no cause. For even a mature siren, how ever delightful she may be, ia not likely to come before a young wife in the heart of a young husband. Though the French paint the love ot a woman ot lorty aa pathetic, be cause slightly ridiculous and certainly hope less, yet they arrange the theory of their social life so that a youth is generally sup posed to make his first love of a married wo man many years his elder, and a mature siren finds her last love in a youth. We have not come to this yet in England, either in theory or practice; and it is to be hoped that we never shall come to it. Mature sirens are all very well for men of their own age, and it is pleasant to see them still loved and ad mired, aitdto recognize in them the claims of women to something higher than mere personal passion; but the case would be very different il they became ghoulish seducers of the young, and kept up the habit of love by entangling boyish hearts aud blighting youthful lives. As they are now, they form a charming element iu society, aud are of infinite use to the world. They are the ripe fruit in the garden where else everything would be green and immature the last days ol the golden summer just before the chills of autuniu come on; they contain in themselves the advantages of two distinct epochs, aud while possessing as much personal charm as youth, possess also the gains which oome by expeiience and maturity. They keep thing3 together ss the young alone could no . do; aud no gathering of friends is perfect which has not one or two mature sirens to give the tone to the rest, and prevent excesses. They soften the asperities of high-handed boys ind g'rla, which else would be too -biting; And they set people at ease, and make them in good humor with themselves, by the couitesy with which they listen to them, aud the patience with which they bear with them. Even the very girls who hate them fiercely as rivals love them passing well as half mater nal, half sisterly companions; and the first person to whom they would carry their-sorrows would be a mature siren, quite capable on her own part of having caused. them. It would be hard indeed if the loss of youth did not brine with it some compensations: but the mature alien suffers less from that loss than any other kind of woman. Indeed, she seems to have a private elixir of her own which ia not quite drained dry when she dies, beloved and regretted, at threescore years and ten; leaving behind her ono or two old friends who were once her ardent lovers, and who still cherish her memory as that of the finest aud most fascinating woman they ever knew something which the present generation is utterly incapable of repeating.
