It tll I I ,.,. .1,, ,,r ri.ni.ijii,ii esteemed a scholarly woninn njid a de-p student, contributes to the "trial murrlaga" discission rrovolicd by the ultra-advanced views of Mr. Klsle t'ltas rarsons of Nw Yolk. Mrc Thwlng condemn "trial marriages" an linprae Ikable, but urge, that bctrothala should lie a much mire solemn arrnngement than at present and that they should be sub ject to the "ratification" of the family physician of the agreeing partita. Mrs. '1'hwlng write: "Someone surely ought to remlnd Mrs. Parsons and the blshnpa who feel agitated about her book that we nl- iPtdy have the matter of trial marriages well provided for, but we call It betrothal. "Perhaps people are not quite careful enough to make the betrothal bo fully rorv Icnablx as it should be In many ways, but we usually announce It, encourage a ring as a symbol of a sort of relation and make all sorts of preparation for the more blnd- lng ceremony except, perhaps, most Is- entlal preparation the solemn and care ful Inquiry, by both maid and man.

It is now aupposod to mean to the betrothed pair. "The Hebrews put up a tent and leave tha lovers alona in it. The Brahmin looka over his new wife and If pleased makes her a mother, but if he thinks her unfit she remains In his house as a servant. He certainly has room to exercise his Intelll- Bnce. Under the Jewish law the woman also made her choice before marriage. I WISH our gins ana boys migni an n- come acquainted with themselves and with the great, clean, orderly world In which we live, and the period of betrothal seems the sweetest time for such learning. In life, in savagery. In civilisation, in divine economy, the wedding ring is the unalter able limit between the state of single bles sedness and the state of matrimony. i-But plighted troth is a fact If it has taken place and not an announcement. Tha beautiful woman who died of a broken heart in New York recently because the new law of the state made her marriage Illegal failed to realize what George Kliot stood for so stoutly that law cannot le galise, but only declare the legality of a procedure. Similarly the church .cannot sanctify: It only acknowledges the sanctity of a heart relation which must already exist or seem to exist. "Rudyard Kipling's 'Jungle Book' takes up this problem, among others, for the -whole book is a poetic study of the laws back of civilisation where Mowgli and his bride of a night, sitting in the tree top, discuss the new era of their united life. The trial marriage Is over and both these children realise that marriage from now on Is Inevitable and permanent. "Civilisation goes one step further. It places the question of the maid In the mouth of an authorlted representative of society, a magistrate or a minister, and that we may have greater aecurlty against fraud and treachery we require first that the mail answer the question and execute to the prospective mother the deed of all his wordly goods. "It seems to most of us that we are not ready to let this safeguard slip by us. When wa are ready there will be no more opposi tion to the pcrmunency of marriage. It will be a matter of course, like the law against murder." 'Woman Monntalu Climber's Troubles, ln Harper's for December Miss Annia 8. Peck, the well known mountain-climber, tells of her attempt to ascend Mount Huas caran In Peru. Her account of her outfit ia Interesting. "I had thought excellent my plan of hav ing a little tent all to myself, but It did not so prove," says Miss Peck. "At the door It was barely five feet high, sloping to the other end.

N , , woman, not afraid of her decided to celebrate her 45th birth- day with a party. There were the usual attractions of such an occasion, when mem- bers of the ramily and Intimate friends V- semble. and the piece de resistance was the birthday cake, with Its elaborate overlay of carved Icing and the figures symbolic of the net'fl.lnn tn DltiU In the p.ntr.

There was slight consternation when the mutilation of the centerpiece, was discovered, but the cul prit's big brother said, "Never mind; Its not so bad after all, for It disposes of Aunt Sallle s past." Aunt Bailie had nothing to say. Home Only a Part. 'The divorced wife, the untrue wife, the nagglnrr scold, the household drudge, the indifferent mediocrity of the average housewife, result from the fact that wo men do not appreciate the impossibility of centering their entire existence in the husband to the exclusion of every other Interest," is the assertion made by Mrs. A. Netterfleld, who is organizing a social istic campaign among the women of 8t. Louis. "It Is not to the women of any partic ular class or condition that I appeal," said Mrs. Netterfleld,' quoted by the Kt. Louis Republic. "The women who largely make up the socialist class are the hard est to arouse to a sense of their condi- tion. Mrs. Netterfleld's remedy for the current evils of women's existence Is that they have other Interests than those of yie home and the husband. She declares that the home Is necessary, ar.d, therefore, should be kept, but denies that It should take up the entire thought and capacity of the woman's life. Taking it from the husbund's stand- point, Mrs. Netterfleld asserts that from personal experience she has found that the more Independence and brain a wo man has the better able she Is to interest and keep the companionship of a man, not the companionship of administering to his material desires, but the compan ionship of intellect Asked how socialism would ameliorate the present condition of women, Mrs. Net- terfietd said: "There are certain Qualities peculiar to f . . . , .

"Intuition, perception, patience in detail, tact, and, above all, the Inimitable power of her sex are some of the things that would establtali her aa political dictator, and aa audi ahe would have the power to better, not only herself, but her neighbor aa well. The beginning of tills triumph ant campaign must be In the equality of aexes." Keeping "n rrrVt. Contrary to the views of the average woman or girl. Miss Louise Haffner and Miss Caroline Haffner, sisters, of Coatea vlllc. Pu de "lare emphatically that it la the easiest thing in t lie world for a woman to keep a secret no matter how great or small that secret may be. The Haffner girls are sisters of ilrs. Charles Sumner Fisher, whose elopement and marriage in New York last March caused unite a stir in Coutesville when it a announced recently. Mrs. Fisher, who was Miss Pauline K. Ilafi'iier, told her pratty sisters that she was marriea ins oay alter the r-criinony was performed and she admonished the giiis to keep It, aecret. They guarded her secret xralously. "How can a woman keep a se ret?" Misa Louise Haffner was asked. "Very easily." she replied. "Just keep your mouth closed and never tell any person about what you have ueen told. Then you can keep a secret aa long aa you please. If any parson wanta informa tion on tha aubject Just tell them that you have nothing to aay." Mlaa Carolina Haffner haa a much sim pler method for keeping a aecret which women can use aa a formula. "Forget that you ever knaw it," alia gave aa her recelpe. Scrtaat daeatloa la Parla.

Now that rldneatone Jewelry Is being worn extensively by women, the trick of hoping the atones bright and clean is something everyone wauts to learn, for though when new It Is sometimes difficult to tell imitation brooches, bracelets untl hair ornaments from the genuine, when the duplicate's begin to tarnish and turn black there Is no mistaking tlw fact that they are not "real."

'Cleaning rhlnestones Is almost as dilll cult a tusk to do at home ns freshening pearls,'" says an expert Jeweler, "for once these Imitation diamonds begin to turn black there is nothing that can be done to bring back their brilliancy. Preventing them from becoming dull is, however, quite possible. If, aa is often the case, the sil ver ln which they are set begins to tarnish, that discoloration may be removed, with a vigorous scrubbing in lukewarm water with suds from castile or any other pure toilet soap and a stiff brush. Care should be taken that the water is not too hot or It may soften the cement around the stonos. "In preparing a warm water bath for rhlnestone Jewelry be sure that the liquid is clear apd free from any gritty sediment before Immersing the pieces. Let them stay In the water but a short time say. two minutes then begin scrubbing with the stiff brush, plunge each piece into a bowl of clear water to rinse off the soap and then place in a box filled with Jewelers' tawrtust and leave for half an hour until ull the water is absorbed.

"It Is because many women do not un derstand how rhinestoncs are set that re sults in the ruin of them In the average attempts at cleaning. For if they knew that the majority of these imitation dia monds are nothing but pieces of glass, really softer and easier to scratch tlian ordinary window panes, and that their brilliancy is obtained by the tips of lead or aluminium in which they are set, the idea of washing these stones unless tiny are set In a metal would no longer exist.

The best Plan In cleanslnr with those set in silver or any other metal Is to scrub them with prepared chalk and a stiff -bristled brush. "With the tipped stones that are in raitwd settings the only successful way of cleaning is by careful brushing with a soft brush, and this should be done after each wearing, so that the dust will not get around into the foil or aluminium."
