Vices Charged to Women,

From the Baltimore sun.
The eNpensiyeness of feminine dress
habits and ianCies IL the text OF many com
plants. The bachelors outgo, 1t IL alleged,
il not halved but trebled or quadrupled son
assuming the conjugal moose" Careers, it is
claimed, are spoiled by premature marriage,
and one writer has the hardihood 10 affirm it
to "a matter OF fact that the greatest men
who have lived were childless and wifeless
men," This is explained by the distractions
of housekeeping and the infinite task OF
Iaboring TO satisfy wives brought up with the
idea that economy is meanness." The dis
position to convert homes into costly
museums OF old china brio a. brac, useless
furniture, unappreciated books, etc, instead
OF studying to simplify and minimize the
requirements of daily living. is another vice
charged upon the modern woman. "She
makes nothing and wants everything" one
complainant put it. Living costs too
much," says another, summing up thous.
and objections in one. 1t may be observed,
however, in regard to much Of this fault
finding that 1t proceeds upon a narrow view
of life and its objects. A pretty effective
reply to all is the contribution made to the
discussion by young lady who says: "One
has only to look around him to see that the
married men are the most regular, temper
ate, law-abiding and prosperous"

and distress that filled the room rs the sharp
shears did their cruel work.
"There, it's over" said Tom In voice of
relief
And he put Jupe down on the floor. The
door was opeu and Don looked up Just In
time to see Jupe dart from the room,
the blood pouring from his mutilated ears
and the most piteous cries issuing from his
throat
Both boys started in pursuit, but though
they ran their best they could not catch mp
with the hslfmsd little creature, which,
blinded by the blood, rushed wildly down
one street and up another, continuing to yelp
incesSautly.
"we're gaining on him; he's getting tired
out" painted Tom, who WAS getting urea
out, too
As he spoke, Jupe lett the sidewalk and
stumbled into the street At the same
moment, large wagon, drawn by two pow
orful horses at a sharp trot, turned the corner.
Tom gave q cry of warning, but II came too
late. Before the driver OF the wagon under
stood what was wanted, poor little lupe lay
crushed and bleeding in the dust and when
the boys pale and horrihed, reached the
spot, he was gasping his last.
1t WAS a long time before Don was recon
clled To his loss, or could bear the least allu
sion 10 his dead pet and Tor years he
avoided the vicinity OF Lucas street, not
wishing To toe reminded OF the day he had
taken poor little Jupe there.

But he never had another dog like Jupe.

Beef Eating in Eng land and Else where.

From the ST. James Gazette.
If there we're any sOundness in the statis-
tics OF Mr.. p. s. Lsmas, who is stated TO be
an economist of great repute, and who is GER
tsinly an industrious compiler of figures, the
English people can no longer boast to be, or
be jeered at as being the greatest beef featers
in the world. According TO the economist 3
computation, the annual consumption Of beef
in Europe amounts to A. It's per head of the
population In the year. The Australians con-
sume 100 lbs man, and the Americans l30
lbs, white the other great continent of Ar
gentine (from which Mr., Lsmas hails) eats
level with Australia At this rate there
must be very great number of people in the
world who get along without eating beef at
all But the calculations are based on one
which is yet more eXtrsordinary-namely
that on the whole globe the total head of cat
tie Is forty. seven millions and half, or about
an OK and a hall for every one in Great Bri-
tain and none at all for anybody else Still,
facts are facts and figures are figures.

Bad Ems tells characteristic story OF the
German emperor. A great packet OF jour
mails arrives every day for the emperor's
reading In order to make the reading IS
little bardensome as possible, high court
official is charged with the duty of looking
through the entire heap of newspapers and
mark ing with rod ink the Passages which the
kaiser's private secretary Ia to read aloud TO
his august master. The emperor one day
took up one OF the Journals, and asked the
meaning of the red lines with which 1t was
profusely scored. Upon the secretary ex-
planning the Specification ofthese red strokes
the venerable monarch said with a hearty
laugh Then, my dear fellow let me beg

thing In this journal which has not a red

HER CHOICE,

Two letters lay beside her plate
That dull December morning;
one, creamy-tinted, thick and 1ne,
silver crest adorning;
And one in plain and common white,
Initiated and interested.
Each brought heart. and so untouched
Her dainty break fast rested.
one spoke in cold aud courtly phrase
of wealth, ancestral honor.
And pride but with the name ana gold
She needs must take the donor.
And one, impassioned, breaihed TO her
ofhowery garden closes,
quaint white cottage by the sea.
And Love among the roses,
Before her In vision passed
The young earl's naughty features,
His scoTn OF all less great than he,
And all earth's toiling creatures
Then Roberts sunny smile, and eyes
SO dark and deep and tender,
His swinging step. and ringing voice.
And figure straight and slender.
The letter with the silver crest,
Proud dreams, ambitions, brought her,
OF stately halls and swelling fieids
And lakes OF liisd water,
Yet Cupid murmured In her ear
"Thy maiden heart repose7
W here stands a cottage by the SEA
OeTrun with crimson roses
She saw herself in silken robes,
In costly jewels blazing;
The queen of dinner. ball. and hunt,
All eyes upon her gazing
She saw herself in quiet gowns
That Ill displayed her beauty,
Her home a prison, and her lite
A rigid round ni duty.
And so she penned two pretty notes
One read, such honor paid he
To her. shs could net choose but say
That she would be his lady;
And one. some other maid than she
Must teud the garden closes,
And round the cottage by the sea
Entwine the running roses.
She is my lady now, and leads
In folly ana In fashion,
A lovely figure dressed by Worth
A heart devoid OF passion.
She Is the belle of every bail,
The beauty OF the races.
And everywhere her face Is still
The fairest OF all faces.
But still perhaps the silver cloud
May have II leaden lining;
And who can know woman's heart,
Its hidden pain and pining?
For sometimes in my lady's dreams
The gate OF heaven uncloses
Upon cottage by the sea
And love among the roses
