Do Women Demand Too Much!

For myself I do not blame any
woman for expecting or getting every
thing that is pretty or enjoyable, and
therefore her birthright. What does
make me sick at heart, though, Is to
see o member of my own sex demand
everything and give nothing but the
barest-boned honor in return. There
is rarely a woman who does not look
the comelier for smiling; there is GER
tainly not one in existence, no matter
how cherished, who wouldn't be the
better loved for returning a favor with
at least pleasant word, and kind
ness with smile. Why is it? oh,
why is it that more girls are not
brought up not only with the idea
more clearly shown that more flies can
be caught with sugar in day than q
spider can eaten with q web I'm urweek,
but also that the fly likes the sugar
immensely, while he is mo than
likely to lose one or both wings in the
web? It is well that man should
have head, and it is we'll that he
should have heart, but he is not "real
nice to live with" unless his wings are
perfect. NelU York Graphic.

A Grim Collection,

The city of Paris has become lately
the possessor of remarkable collec-
ton of documents, which will have
great interest in years to come for his
torical investigators. This was the
series of death warrants, extending
from the 7th of April, 1S0S, to the Sth
of December, 1882, belonging to San
son, the notorious headsman OF the
revolution. The collection was bound
up in nineteen volumes, and Samson
has prefixed to each volume summary
of the contents. 1t appears that dur
ing twenty-five years he executed 7.143
capital sentences, being an average OF
217 executions in each year-rather O
busy life. During the twenty-five years
he only twice assembled the scaffold
without fatal result-once in 1915,
when Gen. Count Lavalette was to have
been executed tor completely in the re-
turn of Napoleon, but escaped the
night before his intended execution
through the heroism of his wife. The
second time was in 1917, when Phi
