The other day q lady found herself in
a group of femininity where the CONVEX
sation drifted into the subject of wealth
and as to what constituted luxury. Each
woman present was asked to name her
hearts desire, if money grew on bushes
and women were turned loose in the
field. The ladies', by the way, We're of
moderate means, or their notions oflux-
ury would have no weight. They were
all educated and we'll bred, or their
fancies would not be worth repeating.
Now, a man would naturally say that
every woman braced herself up and
shouted; Diamonds, laces, silks, and
horses and carriages.
Well, the verdict was nothing of the
sort. The preponderance of desire set
in the direction of q maid. A trim, tidy.
deft, cat-footed maid, who would keep
oil TIE paraphernalia of woman in ex-
quisite order, who neglected nothing
from the buttons on her boots to the
perfume on the murchoir, who superin-
tended the bath, who understood the
proper use of all dainty toilette appli-
ances, and who, lastly, could relieve a
woman of the n~ever-ending WEAKNESS of
combing her own hair; a maid, a go-be-
tween that would serve a lovely woman
and save her from the intrusion of
dusty, dull-eyed care. That group of

Lo,U The 4reraye Woman S,cin,s.

The majority of the fair pupils swim
with their arms only, and if they do
kick the force of their stockinged soles
is lost in the air. Instead of drawing
the legs up under the body. as a good
male swimmer does. the feminine pupil
bends the leg at the knee, SO that the
lower parts of the limbs rise gracefully
above the surface of the water at every
stroke and then drop back with q thud,
as is part OF the roof of the bath house
had fallen in. The effect of tlMs inno-
walton is most exhilarating, especially
to the disinterested spectators. In pro-
portion to their size, women have heav-
ler heads and smaller lungs than men;
and as lung power has much to do with
a swimmers %buoyancy, a woman has a
tendency in the water to pitch head
downward. The conformation of her
body, too, helps this unpleasant tend<
ency, SO that when she ]aggravates the
trouble by kicking her heels out OF the
water she looks like q duck diving for
clams.-Sdn francisco Chronicle.

A Long Tramp.

About four weeks ago Bill Webb, of
Iron Mountain Mich, traded his bull
dog Jack for an Irish setter belonging
to Prof. Williams, a travelling show
man. Williams took Jack with him
to st. Paul, MINI. The other morn
ing Jack hoped off a freight train in
Iron Mountain on which he had jump
ed from the ore train at the "Y," some
distance up the line. The dog must
have made its way from st. Paul, a
distance of nearly 400 miles, by steal
ing rides on freight, passenger and ore
trains. When it found its old master
it was much emaciated, and how it had
sense or instinct to get back to Iron
Mountain is a mystery.

Wells are the most characteristic
feature Of that riverless country, Trtpoli,
North Africa. Look where you will,
you. see in every direction the two up
right posts of whitewashed stone" OF
clay that. mark the wells mouth, and
the wooden crosspiece from which the
bucket hangs outlined against the sky
like a ~primeval gallows.

and tiny dams OF earth 4 few inches

reservoirs not unlike the squares Of a
huge chessboarD in which the torrent
rains which fall at short intervals from
November till March are retained and
allowed to sink into the ground instead

Africa.
These embankments give quite n
ocular character to the whole land

local road ,-u find yourself from first

very deep, dusty, t~ortuous ditch. shut
in by huge banks of earth, crested with

monstrous puddle of half liquid mud,
Il relic of the winter rains, leaving atiny
isthmus a few inches broad between it
and the wall. Should you be unlucky
enough to encounter at one of these
critical points a frightened camel or q
file of laden donkeys, it is likely to go
hard with you, for whether they push
you off into the mud or splash through
it themselves to LET you pass, you are
pretty certain to come out of the

The Alleged Miser1incss Of Won,en

The following paragraph has been
going the rounds Of the newspapers:
After partaking of luncheon at a fashion,
able restaurant yesterday a lady left a %
cent piece lying on the table. The waiter.
supposing it to be a tip, fell in a fit. A few
minutes later the lady returned to reclaim
the coin. and stated that she had left it by
mistake. 1t is feared. however, that her
explanation came too late to save the unfor-
tunate menials reason.
The jest is an old one, and not one of
the kind that improves with age. In
the first place it is a severe comment
upon restaurants that the tipping of
walters should be necessary in order to
secure polite service. If the owner of
any establishment pays his employees
insufficient wages it is not incumbent
upon outsiders to make up the de-
ticiency.
tits said Of women that they delight
to haggle over a bargain, and show a
m%iserly spirit in all their dealings; that
they patronize cheap restaurants sooner
than pay q high price for a handsomely
appointed lunch; and that if they ever
give to charity it is in a niggardly meas
ure. Mr.. Howells. who processes to
have probed the feminine heart to its
core, declares that they consider all cx.
penditure ~extravagaut that is not di-
rected towards dress. In answer to
these structures it must be remembered
that unless q woman has o fortune OF is
a wage-worker she has no money of her
own, but is disbursing the income or
earnings of her husband. If she has
any conscience or sensitiveness she feels
inclined to handle. carefully that which
belongs to another. Miss, Wolfe, after
the manner of most women wealthy in
their own right, gave largely of hel
abundance. AS regards the accusation
of Mr.. Howells the reply may be made
that while the generality Of men expec,
their wives to dress in a tanner suit.
able to their station, they do not usually
afford them the means of giving il
charity. In most cases the money thu:
given by a husband is not the shape O
an allowance, but must be asked for fol
each separate need, SO that the wife
very often feels an absolute sense o
guilt in spending it. We need not
however. enter into this question, upo.
which so much has already been said.
If a is q wage-worker hel
earnings will, as a rule, barely cover
her wants. In the mere item of wear
ing apparel the fashion of feminine gar.
ments is such that they become shabby
and soiled soone than those of men:
therefore, while she receives a lower
compensation for her work, it is NOT
possible for q woman to be ALWAYS
neatly dressed on the same sum o.
money that would clothe O man suit
ably. Thus, she who supports hersel
must sail close to the wind" and ha
little margin for displays Of generosit,
or extravaganza.
Lastly, if a woman chooses to TAX,
her lunch economically it is not to he,
discredit. Ever since Adam ate thu
apple mans appetite has been one of the
weak points, but it is hard that stone.
should be cast at Eve for being content
to look on while Adam feasts.-Neu
