Life's Happiest Period. "At forty a man, if he |be intelligent, has lost hia illusions, and looka upon the world as it is, not as he would like it to be. He is still young enongh to partake of the pleasures of youth, yet has sufficient experience never to permit his heart to rule his head ; is moderate in all things, and wisely shy of hazardous enterprises." On being further asked which he considered the happiest time in a woman's life, the philosopher paufela long while, and when at last he replied he prefaced hi* answer by asserting that this was the mo»e ii fficult question of the two. Finally he faid • " When she is too old to be called a girl and not old enough to be called a woman without the word young prefixed to it. I am unable to be more definite, for tne differences among women are greater than the differences amon? men. The heilthy young woman sees only the brightest side of life, and to her vision the future is filled with golden possibilities of whioh the mental anticipation is delightful." «v 8 - P roQoa , noement ifc will ba noted that the wiw old Greek uses the word " healthy "m a qualifying sense. Omit that word and the sentence at once loses more than half its truth. Here is a case which will prove our statement. " From the a?e of nineteen until I completed my twenty-third year, I did not know what it waa to be well for a single day,' writes Mrs R. Huntley, of 65 Ultimo road, Ultimo, Sydney.

Ordinary food was poison to me. and I was obliged to exist on sodawater, milk, plain biscuits, and dry toast. Even that fare would sometimes distress me to an intolerable degree. My skin turned sallow • my eyes sank and were surrounded by dark, hollow circles.

Often the noise of my sewing machine, and the close air of the workroom, would bring on a splitting headache that maddened me. Then there were fits of retching and vomiting, which troubled me with great frequency. When there was nothing in the stomach to come up, I would retoh and strain until I became exhausted and faint, when my workmates would improvise a couch for me with their oloaks and jackets, and I would lie for hours unable to move I was treated by three doctors, but I believe the medicines they prescribed irritated my Btomaoh and did me more harm than good.
