Show SHOULD WED SOME OKE HIS OWN .AGE - - To the Editor of The Telegram: I see in Saturday evening's Telegram where some insurance agent says a woman should be years younger than her husband. hus-band. I say It's a mistake. I know from experience and I have three friends or had that married men years older than themselves and it has proved a failure. The men are old, cross and exacting., Avwoman wants some one full of life. They will have It even if they have to resort to stratagem. I think It looks silly and disgusting for an old man with one foot in the grace, you might say, trotting alongside of a young woman posing as her husband. If they vcould see themselves as some see them they would cut It I have seen more happiness result from the reverse where the women are older than the men, for as a rule women when they. get . along in years are not cross 'and selfish as men are. I say again, old men If they wish to have happiness, truth and fidelity given them I say If they marry at all. marry some one their own age. MRS. M. B. ELLIOTT. |
