| Stoner Girl Bride At Secret "19-Year-Old Prodigy Chooses Frenchman as Husband" PIO Who says men 'will not marry claver wives? Those folk who declare much learning 'for 'girls is a dangerous thing will have a sad blow in the announcement of a wedding that has heen kept quiet since last August, Winnifred Sackville Stoner, Jr, became the wife of Charles Phillippe de Bruche, of Paris, last August 7, a few days before she reached her nineteenth birthday, The ceremony was performed right up in her mother's apartment in Centyal Park West, but was not anh ced at the time and only re- cently hecame known. Since then, Winnifred, Winnifred's husband and Winunifred"s dog, Bonny Bell, have heen motoring through the West and South. Winnifred Stoper, who lectured in Toronto a few years ago, probab- ly has the most phenomenal brain of any woman in the United States, Thera have been many boy prodigies, but few of the other sex. At' nine months she Virgil, At seventeen months she could read,' picking out the words with the ald of a typewriter, She modelled her mother's family coat of arms on a plague at five, published a book of poems at six, and did a miniature of herself at twelve, Her "Bumble Bee" poem, writ- ten at three, has been included in a famous anthology. "The Little Folks' Book of Verse," where it appeared side by side with a poem of Tennyson's. At nine she passed college ent- rance examinations and at twelve Dr, M. V. O'Shea, of the University of Wisconsin, who observed her for many weeks, declared she knew more than the average college grad- uate, M. de Bruche has married a wo- man who speaks fluently in eight languages and is familiar with sev- eral more, is a poet, historian and novelist, the author of sixteen books and many songs and scenarios. ean vie with any man in high diving, horsemanship, fencing and other sports and has many tro- phies to her credit. Do you feel a little sorry for Mr. de Bruche? Well, you needn't, for his bride is unusually endowed with the beauty. youth and vivacity that men are reputed to prize ahove everything else in a woman. She is unusually scannéd pretty, with 'red hrown hair, red cheeks, brilliant teeth and a perfect figure. They met at a theatre party and didn't wait for a conventional year to pass before taking the mad leap, How did a mere male ever capti- vate so learned a Young woman? cognize it as potent, He's older than she is and lie can keep her amused, Here are the five reasons Wini- fred unssigns for her marrigge to M. de Bruche: i "1, 1 like people who have trav- eled and are not narrow-minded, My hushand has heen a globe-trot- ter, making him broad in his views of the world and giving bim much subject matter for discussion and comparison. : I have always enjoyed the companionship of boys and men older than myself, because [ believe that girls develop in mind as well ag in hody hefore hoys. Naturally any girl likes a man who is saperior to herself in physical and mental strength. '3.

As a great psychologist has said: 'If one grows weary of'think- ing of one language use another to refresh the mind.' We néed not grow weary of our thoughts because we can talk together in different tongues. "5. And most important of all, T love him. After all. what foes it matter how rich or poor, how great or small a man may be if he wins v zirl's love?" All the sceptics who believe the only true preparation for marriage is in mother's kitchen are shaking their heads sagely and saying.
