A LANDLAOY WHO TELLS WHY
WOMEN ARE ALTOGETHER UN-
DESIRABLE AS LODGERs

| What is the matter that women who
have no home find it so difficult to OBJ
tain what passes for one even by paying
for ii? What advantage has man over
a woman as roomer or boarder? | am
beginning to find the burden of my wo.
mans estate too heavy to bear. ! have
hitherto considered it very enjoyable
and honorable, but the experience of
the last three days has made me willing
to change places with the veriest
wretch that ever wore trowsers, Now,
will you, out of your own experience
and observation, solve this mystery, for
you do not seem like one to hold an I'M
authorized oplnIo0;
OF course, replied the lady, there are
boarders and bOarders, just as there are
landladIes and landlades. For my part
like the ladies in the house. Every
house is pleassnter and should be better
for their presence. But the fact remains
that they are more trouble than men.
When they are in their rooms all day,
where they have a right to be, they are
generally wanting something not in the
bond. They-l am talking now OF the
careless, selfish or simply inConsiderate
Unes-insIst upon extra service; they
will ring for the glrl to come up three
flights of stairs to put lump of coal on
crate, to open window or shut it, or
to find their nightdress They'll 60 into
the bathroom, even those who have no
need to economic, and wash out all
sorts of things, laces and handkerchiefs
and stockings; this in time fills up the
waste pipe with shreds and rawlings
and the end thereof is a plumbers bill.
They will either ring for a tatiron or
else they will come down into the kitch
en- and attend to the pressing out of
their gowns there, They will bother
the girl, want little more fire and an
ironing board, a little starch, and a
holder, and it will frequently end by
the girl offering to do the work for
them just to get them out of the way,
They want a little thread or darning
needle or teaspoon or some mustard,
or some table salt, or cGmphor. 1t seems
to me there's nothing from a pin to
porous plaster that has not been asked
for by my lady dodgers.
They want frequent changes made in
the arrangements of their rooms, The
bed doesn't stand the right way, the
curtains are too thin or too thick, the
back of the rocking chair is too high or
too low. They lose their pass keys and
burn the gas to heat curling irons and
pipe stems wherewith to curl their hair.
They receive calls, properly enough, hut
they forget that it requires the time Of
the servant to answer the bells for these
callers. And as women spend money
less freely than men, they do not con-
slider that extra service should receive
extra pay. II the truth must be told, l
find it much easier and more pleasant
to transact business-from small matters
10 greater ones-with a man than with
a woman. Women are not business
like, and they will pay $50 for bonnet
and haggle over a wash bill.

THE NEW THIRD REArER.


Are we up7
No, we are not up.
Why are we not up.
Because the consumed elevator is out
of repair, and won't be fixed for week
1t is well that we did not go up?
1t is: the fellow wouldn't be in, any
how. Let us make our escape before we

Yes, we see.
What do we see?

What else?

Are they to be hung up with the works
of the old masters?
Oh, no. They are to be engraved and
hung up in the newspapers to boom the

Isn't that rather odd?
Yes; and rather cold, too.
Do you see the bird?
Yes, see the bird.
What sort of bird is it
1t is a robin.
What is he doing here?
Trying to bring about spring.
And will he succeed
He may; there is another blizzard pre-
dotted for tomorrow.
Do we see the man?
Yes. we see him.
Has he bundle
He has.
But why does he ring the door bell of

That he may call the lady.
Does the lady know him ?
Oh, no; she never saw him before.
Why does he hand her the card?
Because he is deaf and dumb, and the
card explains the fact and asks for as.

And why does the lady whistle?
She is whistling for the family bull
dog?
And is that the reason the deaf ane
dumb man skips the gutter?
1t is. His desire is to be far away when
the dog gets around the corner.
How sad 1t is to be afflicted
Yes, il is-occasionally-w the
woman won't scare and the dog is big

Mysterious orisiupf Fires.

Not long ago a lot Of Sea Island cotton
In bales was discovered to be on fire in a
New Jersey warehouse, and when the
flames were extinguished in one spot,
they would Immediately break out in
another. An examination showed that
it was roller gin cotton; that is, cotton of
which the lint is drawn away from the
seeds by a pair Of rollers, set at such a
distance apart as to zee the seeds from en-
tering between them, while the fibre passes
on and goes into a bag. In the present
case, more or less of the seeds had some
how got between the rollers and been
crushed, and had thus saturated the cot
ton with oil, which, in due time, had
caused spontaneous combustion.
A still more curious case occurred in a
Massachusetts, factory. In the middle OF
the room a milling machine was turning
knife handles, the dust being blown up
through a metal tube into the room above
and thence forced out Of doors through a
wooden pipe. A spark from an emery
wheel, fifteen feet from the milling ma
chine, struck q window, and rebounding,

some cotton waste in front OF the boiler,
where it would be handy for the fireman
in the morning. During the night this
took fire spontaneously; the flames spread
to the kindlings under the boiler, and
soon raised steam enough to cause the
boiler TO blow off, badly soaring the
watchman, who knew, OF thought he
knew, that there was no fire under it.
In another instance a man drove a nail

IL results from n special report made 10
yhe French minister Of agriculture that
sugar is an excellent agent for preserving
meat, and possesses solne advantage over
salt. In fact, salt absorbs a portion OF
the nutritiye substances and Of the flavor
of meat. When an analysis is made Of
a solution Of tho salt dissolved Ivy water
contained in meat, we find albuminoid
bodies, ~cxtractive substances, potasSa
and phosphoric acid. Salt depriveS meat
Of these substances 80 much the more

when taken from the saline solution, has

less soluble, produces les liquid. IL
forms around the meat q cold crust,

Newspaper "SIght Owls"

There is always the proportion ~ night
owls, men who work when others sleep.
They have an air about them which is
unmistakatle, for while they look tired
from the toll they have just left, it is a
different kind Of fatigue from that which
one notices among those who are ''up
late" Many, in fact the majority, Of
these are from the newspaper offices,
and they can always be known from the
shop talk they indulge in. Curiously
enough newspaper men do not talk very
much about their business in the day
time, not more, ut least, than does any
other class Of men.
But NJ night It would seem as though
their brains Gre SO full Of the subjects

though surgeons had come from the

impression OF inside information among
the speakers. Then. too. it is mostly in
the future; they constantly talk OF that
which others 10 not know yet. Their
discussion is Of what the papers will
