I was 80. I have said to my daugh

consent to their marrying until
they arrive at that age.
Marriage for the purpose of
settling a daughter in life is, as a
rule, a failure and an unhappy
one. No parent, and esiecially
no true and loving mother, will
wish to push her daughter into
matrimony before she is fullj
matured and fitted for the gravr
responsibilities of msu-nod life.

been formed. Young people art
impressionable and romantic, and
if left to their own free will art
apt to rush into matrimony with
out properly considering the
grave responsibilities of married
life. Many cases have come un
der my observation where youth
ful and hasty marriages have re
sulted in unhappmess, discontent
aud lives of drudgery. The old
saying, "Marry in haste and re
pent at leisure," proves too often
true.
Young women and men should
remember that the romantic at
tachments of youth generally are
not lasting. I would not wish to
, be rpgarded as laying down iron:
clad rules concerning the exact
age when a girl should marry. It
might be at 22, 24, 25 or 20 years.
it all depends upon the physical
and mental development of thf
