A great deal has been said," remarked
lady clerk in the Treasury Department
"about why our girls don't marry. SO far
have only heard the men quoted, and
they say q great deal about the girls losing
their charms and becoming less feminine by
mixing with the business world and about
wanting to better their condition by mar
riage. Now, if you reporters really want TO
know something about the matter, why
ion't you go to the women themselves? I'll
just tell you one thing, and it's what I be-
lieve to be an important reason. When a
girl is kept at home, and surrounded by
girls, and hears of the greatness of the mas
culine portion of the genus homo, and only
meeting him at picnics and in the parlor,
she conceives rather an exalted idea of what
he really is. Then when she secures po
sition and meets them as they are away
from gaslights uncertain glitter, her idea
of the actual fact falls considerably from
what it was in her inexperence. even If she
still retains the ideal in her mind. The fact
is, we are like Diogenes-we are hunting
for an honest man. We know more about
them than we did, and SO the right man is
naturally harder to find. y Washington Re

From the Same Cautecn.
From hill and plain to the State of Maine
The veterans toiled along.
And they rent the air with the tuneful blare
oftrumpets and OF song.
That their throats were dry there will none deny,
But little they rocked, ween,
AS they gathered around on the old camp ground
To drink from the same canteen
The tales of old were again retold,
And they sang OF the war once more
TIL the word went round like trumpet sound
Let us drink 70 the days OF yoreln
rapturous glee that was fair to see
Enveloped the martial scene,
But there came change that was pitiful strange
When they drank from the old canteen.
The veteran throng sings now song
That is keyed In the grand old strain,
And the air Is blue with the hullabalioo
OF the soldiers who marched to Maine;
Not even beer is theproffered cheer,
Nor jug or a mask is seen,
3ut it's lemonade Of watery grade
That they drink from the same canteen.
