A Rrid- he l. PosEef

hold it to be a truth constantly self evil
dent, says Clara Belle in the Cincinnati En-
quirer' that every man will defend woman
against all men except himself. If you
haven't Noticed it already. you have only to
look for it an hour or so in any place Of mix
ture of the sexes Clap your eyes on pretty
woman without male escort, and two phen-
omena will become obvious. Firstly, there
will be a large amount of open and covert
staring at her, to all of which her ohlivious-
ness is of course only assumed. Secondly,
if one of the starers happens to realize that
others are at the same game he will manifest
plainly his disgust at such treatment of an
unprotected beauty, utterly ignoring his own
offense.
A husband and wife got into a street car.
/ The man was somewhat dudish in dress. The
woman was under twenty, and as pretty as
nature aud art are in the habit of combining
to produce. They were chatting on the very
subject that have here introduced.
"Percival, lear" said she, Il will prove
to you that l am right, aud take only ten
minutes to do it if you'll promise not TO get
angry about It,"
He closed the contract. Then she drew
hers eli up, as though the husband sitting be-
side her was an entire stranger, and waited
for the car TO I'll with passengers at Union
Square.
''Now," she whispered, ''observe how I'm
ogled when alone 4"
Within five minutes he saw that half n
dozen masculine passengers. from hoary age
10 calow youth, eyed his bride with more or
less audacity, and several manifestly would
not have needed the smallest beginning Of q
wink on her part to seize upon her then and
there. That part OF the exhibition was a
triumph for the wife but the most curious
feature Of her experiment remained to be
tried.
'You certainly do seem to attract great
| deal of admiration" said the husband, sup
posing that the pretended strangeness was at
an end.
She lifted her eyebrows In simulated sur
prise, as though an impcrlinent fellow had
unwarrantedly aceosted her, and pointedly
| turned her face from him. He understood
her now, and did not speak TO her further
/ Next, she drew her shoulder away from con-
tact with his. BY this time the spectators
were believing that he was annoying her
dreadfully, and scornful glances were aimed
at him. Her final trick was conclusive. il
| consisted in suddenly pulling her skirts clear
Of his trousers, and deliberately setting her
feet as far in the other direction as the end
/ ST the car would permit. Nobody doubted
that the dear. demure creature had been
grossly insulted. A man arose from the ops
| posite side.
"Will you exchange seats with me?' he
very gallautly aud politely said, lifting his
hat most deferentially.
| Now, he had been foremost among the
original oglers-the yeriest simpleton of
! them all.
Thank you, sir" she replied, as bland
as a white heifer, shut prefer to sit beside
my husband"
Thus, with the same stone she killed that
vulture bird and the dove-mate whom she
had undertaken TO Instruct as to the phlloso-
ply Of male gallantry.
