The Woman Who Wears the
Brooches.

The woman who always answers when
her husband is spoken to, and con-
siders herself the better three
quarters " of the household arrange
ment.
Tie woman who buys all the provis-
ions and clothing, even her husband
clothes, and buys them always at a
bargain.
She never thinks him of any conse-
quence in the family, but regards him
as boarder who eats a great deal and
pays nothing, while tie family is sup
ported by her own shoulders and fore
sight, including the " bargains she is
constantly securing.
The woman who always pins on her
husbands collar and cravat, washes his
neck and ears, trims his hair-and
pulls it too, if he is at all refractory
who contradicts him before their chill
dren not allowing him to express Jan
opinion without Immediately volun-
teering one in an opposite direction.
The woman who always demands the
money on "pay day." and if her hus-
band ventures to ask for a..dollar, looks
at him sharply and asks what he wants
it for; says "there is no need for man
to have money when his wife needs it
all to clothe and feed her family"
As soon as there is hundred dollars
ahead she takes it, and, depositing it in
the bank in her own name, announces
to her husband the gratifying intelli-
gence that she has saved a hundred
dollars, but does not consider it impor.
tant to mention where she has deposited
the same.
Tie woman who wears the d" breech-
es is almost sure to lay by something
for rainy day." as she never allows
her husband day of recreation, al.
though on holidays she usually takes
him out with the other children for O
little enjoyment.
Her husband always has quiet, sub
dued air, and speaks in very nervous
hasty manner, and looks around quietly
from under his eyebrows, as if expect
ing to hear some voice in contradic
tion.
He has habit of smoothing the top
of his head gently and soothingly, as il
hair had been recently pulled.
The woman who wears the breeches
is usually called "smart" by the men,
and "tyrant" by the women. She
speaks of the homestead as " my place, >
or my Ifarm," and considers her
husband of no account in the buying OF
selling OF cattle.
She knows just how much the pigs
will weigh, and the market value OF
everything the farm produces for sale,
She is close at bargain, and has been
known to 60 so far as to drive the team
and help to load the wood. She always
manages the children, and if one Of
them should turn out poorly, she
says:
"That child is more like his father
than all the rest"
Nobody has much love for her, and
as she has proved eminently able to
take care of herself by taking care OF
the whole family, no one cares much
for her.
The woman who wears the breeches
always puts her husband to bed first,
that he may warm the front side, and
then rolls him over to the wall when
she gets in, and would make him gel
up and kindle the fire of q morning
only that she thinks he does not know
enough.
She understands politics, and hel
husband votes for the man she tells
him to.
Thus endeth the lesson. PITY the
SORROWS of the poor old man."

The S. F. Post says; 1t is not true
that young men can not afford to marry
because tie girl Of the period is too
extrsvagant. The most accomplished
girls of California are of contrary
stripe, and ten thousand of them can
be found in California who will, if
permitted, SO manage household that
it will cost less than is now spent by
the average bachelor. In fact, we know
of bright, sensible young men who
have married for economical, among
other reasons.

Swiss MOUNTAIN G1RLs.-In these
beautiful health. giving mountains one
would expect to find the most beautiful
looking OF all girls. Where only pure
air is to be breathed, inspiring scenes
to be witnessed, women should be as
fair as daughters of the gods. But not
so. The women in Switzerland have o
prematurely worn and aged look; if at
twenty they we're robust and possessed
of that attraction which good health
bestows-at thirty they are faded and
seem to take pleasure only in going
through their dull and never-ending
round of duty. For they do the greater
share of the work in the field and in the
house, and in addition rear large fami-
lies. In fact they make up in useful
ness what they lack in beauty.

SUDDEN DEATH.

Another sudden death with alcoholism as
the inducing cause took place yesterday 1t
occurs this time in the person of James L.
Beasley, who is well known in the city, hav-
ing been formerly employed as driver and at
the office of DR.. Cluness, and more recently
for time as clerk in the Boston Drug
Store, corner of J and Third streets. His
habits of excessive drinking caused his dis
charge from both those places. From an
estate left him by relatives in England he
was provided with an annual income, which
enabled him to take life easy, and this
doubtless, as is SO often the case, has proved
to make his life valueless to himself and
others. For some time past he had been
drinking excessively. and for the past few
days still added TO the velocity of his down
ward course. Yesterday morning, at about
o'clock, he staggered into the Railroad
Exchange Saloon, on the southeast corner of
X and Third streets, and called for drink
of whisky, which was furnished him at
the bar. He then reeled about the room for
moment. came near falling to the floor, and
was asked by the bartender what was the
matter. The reply was, It's whisky" and
then called for another glass. Of course, a
bottle and tumbler was sat out for him to
help himself. He made his way after some
difficulty to the bar and poured out glass,
and, as he was about to drink it, staggered
back from the counter. and through door
into an adjoining back room. and fell in con-
vulsions upon the floor. Efforts were made
to render assistance and care for him, but
they were useless, and in few moments he
was dead The Coroner was notified, and his
remains were removed to his office, where
p st mortem examination was held. The
immediate cause of death was stated by the
examining surgeon to be congestion Of the
lungs and a arrangement of the heart, but
these were unquestionably induced and
rendered actively fatal by chronic, excessive
use of alcoholic stimulants. There were
four empty whisky TASKS found in his poci,-
cts at the time of his DEATH and which in
themselves were faithful medium by which
to diagnose the case. An inquest will be
held at 10 o'clock this morning. and his
funeral will take place from st. Paul's
Church, corner of Eighth and I streets, at 2
o'clock this afternoon. The deceased was 50
years of age, native of Ireland, and had
many warm friends
