GUESSING,

I dined that evening at little Italian
restaurant, around the corner from Monsieur
Muscles in Second avenue, where very
edible dinners were served for very reason
able prices. While was discussing my
macearoni there an incident befell which
struck me as both interesting and suggestive.
A young lady entered from the street, carry
ing basket, a small and rather pretty
basket, woven of bright green and red
straw. She was manifestly not a stranger
in the place, for, Immediately upon her en-
trance, one Of the walters stepped forward
to meet her, and, taking her basket from
her. he handed her bill of fare. This doc
ument she studied for a minute; then spoke
to the waiter, as if giving him an order. He
went of, bearing her basket with him; and
during his absence she stood near the pay
desk and chatted with the proprietor's
wife, Mrs. Maraschini, who sat in
state behind it. Presently the waiter
came back, and restored her basket to her,
now manifestly heavier than when she had
parted with it; and having settled her score
and given the waiter his gratuity. she re-
turned into the street. This episode, 1 say,
struck me as both interesting and sug-
gestive. Interesting, because the young
lady who sustained the chief role in it was
very far from commonplace in her appear
ance. Of all known types of feminine
beauty that which personally admire the
most is the Titianesque: the woman, who is
of large and generous mold, yet softly
rounded; with a small head set upon full
and graceful neck; white skin just trans
parent enough to be warm in the cheeks; and
to crown al, golden-brown eyes and golden
reddish hair. And of this type had never

"Yes, thank you, it seems to go pretty

After which for a little neither Of us
spoke. 1 continued my labor. He stood
still, just within my threshold, and beamed
upon me with benign, though rather vague
and irrelevant smile.

Crusade for Reform on Railroads fsR
Wemnn's Benenf.
Railway Age.r
A crusade against the smoking eompart-
ment OF sleeping cars has. it is asserted, been
inaugurated by Mrs. Francis Willard, the elo-
quent temperance reformer. In an interview
with Mr.. George NJ. Pullman this energetic
lady argued that the smoking rooms should be
abolished and special cars provided for 1sers
of the weed. declaring that under the present
arrangement the smoke is blown into the
body Of the cars, to the disgust of the fe-
male occupants. 1t is to be admitted that
If the odor Of stale tobacco smoke invaded
sleeping car it would not be agreeable to
most people, but the smoking rooms Of the
modern sleepers are so thoroughly divided of
that it takes very critical nose in any other
part of the car to know that the combustion
of tobacco is going on, and it is rare that
the most fastidious traveller has any corr
plant to make on that score.
Perhaps something might be done by get
ting the State Legislature or the Inter-
State Commerce Commission to prohibit the
smoking of cigarettes and of cigars belowfa
certain grade of refined favor. A more
practical way would be to give the ladies an
entirely separate compartment in each
sleeper, and this would be found advantage
GUS in respect to considerations good deal
more important than the possibility Of in
haling an occasional Whit from the smoking
compartment as now arranged.
An entire sleeping car for ladies, to which
no men should be admitted, would probably
suit Miss Willard and her excellent coad-
tutors still better. and it might be we'll
for them to direct their efforts toward that
result.
