Wo grow sour, or dlscontontcd or captious and then blame our lack of friends on our years. Tho woman who need not fear growing grow-ing old is tho woman who keeps nllvo to the times, whose mind Ib alert to the best in tho world to-day rather than raking over tho past; who does not worry, theroforo docs not "fuss," whoso aim Is a young heart and In nchlevlng it forgets to fret over wrinkles and bodily age. |
