Can't Afford to Marry.

Girls, do you hear thisa Many good
men are crying, "Can't afford to marry!"
Why9 Expense of supporting wife"
Why support witea Might not wives
be made self-supporting, or partly soG
Isn't there something wrong in this sys-
tenn which makes matrimony dependent
on mans ability to pay all the wife's
expenses2 Is it not filling the land with
old maids2 Has it not done so for the
last half century9 Who marry most2
What racea The people who care moth
ing for keeping up style. The foreign
horn whose women turn to and tend the
shop. The cultivated American is not
the marrying man. He likes the goods
on exhibition, but they're too costly tor
his everyday wear. Hence, oft they re-
main on the counter until shop.worn.
This is a crying evil. Our best men are
not marrying. Because so many of our
girls are saying, "You must take me tor
better, for worse, to feed me, to clothe
me, to warm me, to keep me clad in the
fashion, to give me house proportionate
to my style' to keep me in pin money,
and I will condescend to live with you,
and take your money, and do nothing to
earn more, and to lament, il things 90
wrong, that L. didn't marry better, and
you must regard it as q great favor on
my part" The man wants you pretty
badly, but it's too heavy . contract.
Things must he rearranged 10 that you

kissing the Baby on insufficient
Information.

While Colonel Allen was discussing
national finances on the hotel plan, Col
onel Tom Grittenden quietly slid down
Oft the platform and circulated among the
crowd. He wore delicate white duck
suit. blue necktie and patent leather
pumps, and was the cynosure of all fe-
male eyes on the premises. Colonel Tom,
with an eye to business, began ogling the
babies.
''Oh, you sweet little darling" said
Colonel Tenn, addressing a fuzzy, pop
eyed brat that lolled lazily in his mothers
arms under one of the trees: chow old ia
it, ma 'am2'
"Four months, sir" said the fond
mother.
"A little girl, eh9" said Colonel Tom.
"No, a bov,' said the mother.
"Ah yes, now that come to look at it
more closely detect the strong manly
features of boy the colonel hastened
to say. "Please, may I kiss the little
cherub?"
Colonel Tom shut his eyes and ex.
ploded an osculatory sound on the fuzzv
face, and the child put up big lip and
| threatened to cry.
"Hc is such beautiful child" mur
INJURED Colonel Tom; such eyes, such
head, such an expanse of forehead, such
a mouth, such wealth of com piexion,
such sweet tranquil exprcssionH'
"La me, you don't really think so, do
youY" simpered the t1attered mother.
II never saw swceter little chernb,"
SAID Colonel Tom; II believe I'll have
to kiss him again"
Having gone through second oscula-
tory martyrdom, Colonel Tom assumed
a seraph1c look-a look calculated to
strike taffy to the most hardened femi-
nine heart-and got right down to bust
ness.
"1'm candidate for Governor said
he ''and nothing would give me greater
JOY than to feel assured that had the
support of the father of the sweet babe.
| Come, let me hold the little darling in
my arms. do think he is just the
sweetest little angel ever saw!"
| The fattered mother gave up the fuz-
zy baby, with profused apologies about
it not being we'll dressed ETC., hoped
it wouldn't trouble the gentleman, etc.,
glad to know he admired it so much.

and grew red in the face, and wrinkled
itself all up, and then lay calm and COM
posed on Colonel Toms strong right
arm.
! "The little precious!" cried Colonel
Tom. "Youll tell his father how much
thought of his little cherub, won't
you: ma'am? And you'll tell him I'm
candidate for Governor, eh, maam9'
The poor woman's face dropped and
big salt tears came to her eyes,
"Oh, SIR she said "you don't know
| what you ask; my poor husband died of
the jaundice two months ago"
There was a far-of LOOK in Colonel
Tom Crittenden's golden -glintcd eyes
as he gently but firmly dumped that 1uz-
~ baby on the bereavcd mothers lap,
and walked straight back to the platform
and replacad himself on a bench.
Not alone was sorrow confined to Col
onel Tom Crittenden's upheav1ng bosom
There was silent traces of suffering on
his right coat-s'eeve.

An Ambulance for Accidents in
New York.

The following extract is from an arti-
Gle entitled "Hospital Work in New
York;" published in the opening number
Of the Springfield (Mass.) monthly, Good
Company: Suddenly loud-toned bell,
audible throughout the building, strikes
four, and the gates are opened for
white ambulance, which a moment later
is pulled up before the main entrance.
"Surgical," a voice mutters half uncon-
sciously behind us, and looking around
We see patient. "Four strokes for sur
gical, three tor medical" he explains, and
it is by the bell that the ward attendants
are torewarned OF the nature of ambu-
lance cases.
The ambulance is used in nearly all
cases of street accidents, some cases of
disease and many cases of violent ire-
briefly. 1t can be summoned by tele-
graph from any police station, or from
any alarm box Of the fire department, by
tapping the Morse key twenty times and
sounding tie box number. 1t Is ia
miliar in all localities and at all hours
a covered wagon with a neatly uniformed
surgeon sitting behind. Over sixteen
hundred cases are attended by the an
balances of Bellevue in a year, and
two surgeons are constantly employed
in the service, responding to calls
day and night. The alarm is received
in the telegraph Office on the first
floor OF the hospital, and thence trans
mitted sim ultaneously to the stables and
the room of the surgeons, where it is ar
nunciated by nine resonant strokes on a
small gong. No matter how active the
doctor is, the vehicle is usually at the
door before he is at the bottom of the
stairs, and he has to spring for his seat
behind as it rolls out of the hospital yard.
It is constructed on a plan to minimize
pain in carrying sufferer to the hospital
for permanent treatment, and the surgeon
has with him instruments and appliances
for giving temporary alleviation, such as
splinting1and binding fracture, or sew
ing up wound.
When we reach the yard spring mat
tress moving on wheels has been with
drawn from the bottom of the ambulance,
and placed in a slanting position between
the tail-board and the ground, Under
the patient, who IS covered with blankets,
and over the mattress, is canvas stretch
er with tubes along the sides, into which
the attendants insert long poles, and 1.-THE
case" is thus carried to a cot or into a
surgery without any necessary exertion
or moving on his part. The ambulanc
surgeon is brisk, business-llke young
man, and having transferred the case to
the house surgeon. who is now RESPONSE
bic for 1t, and given few particulars to
he clerk, he bounds up stairs to wait for
another call.
