Women Marry Their Juniors

A late conversación between a nunv ber of women chanced to fall upon tht common occurrence of women marry ing tbeir junioi-s, says the New Yorli Times. It was remarked that these rcarriages were almost invariably ha.ppy ones. One of the group ventured the opinión that the reason for this lay in the wisdom gainerl with years by the wife, and in the knowledge thua aftained as to how to manage her husband. Another thought that a man always wanted his wife to "mother" him, aud was best satisñed when she did, while she was naturalTy satisfied by his satisfaction. A third was sure that to take care of others was a woraan's true vocation and the secret eletire of her heart, and that this calring 'vas most entirely entered upon when the selfishness of extreme youth was past, and when the husband was younger thnn herself. Whatever the sause, the fact remains that of these matches, M-hich do scem to be made in heaven, Imost all make a llttle heaven below. One of the talkers contrbi;ted he r quota of the stories of remarkaMe differenees in years between man and wtfe. A one-time T3ishop of MarylanC, she said, married a woraan who liad been one of his mother's bridesmaids, And who had made his own christening robe. He was so devotedly attacied to her that when she died from axtreme oíd age he mouraed her memory, with no thought of filling her place, all the rest of his life.
