In discussing the graceless attendant
Of a young woman at the dinner table
one day last week, Capt. Castle, Of Still
water, epigrammatically expressed the
fatality that attends man who has
nothing but his money to recommend
him to a wOman's favor. You don't
tell me she means 10 marry him." eX-
claimed the captain.
why not?" was the reply; she has
half a million"
million in my old hat, but it's an old
hat STILL"
A woman who has been considerably,
and i'll each instance very happily mar
ried, was lately instructing couple of
girls in matrimonial tactics with view
TO perfecting them in the art of manag-
ing man. You must fiatter him, my
dearS, fiatter him as prohibitionist
drinkS-early and often; and you can't
make it too strong. Why, | fiatter Horace
till his head SwimS. He knows Pm do
ing it-knoWS I'm doing it all the while:
but he'll laugh and look so silly
and feel so good-natured L can
get anything out of him want There's
nothing like it. Young men work for
it. mIddle-aged men dance for it, and
old men will have it at any price. Don't
ever try to get along without it in your
homes, but give your husband his daily
appOrtionment of tiattery, just as regu-
larly as your dog is fed his bone, and
the only thing you will want will be the
luxury OF an nngratilied desire"
There is one woman in this town who
has the courage to act on the general
conviction that the same intolerance
should be shown the man as the woman
who sins. This brave woman, Mrs.
D., lives in pretty fiat, and takes her
meals at a boarding house where the
table is (dis)graced by two young men
of popular average immortality. Mrs.
D. has often decidedly expressed her
disapproval of their rakish propensities,
and has declared that, though they are
visitors at this, that and the other fine
house, they would never be admitted
to her home. Not long ago at
the supper table, one evening.
she gave general invitation
to her fellow bOarderS TO come into her
parlOr and play cards, which invitation
was accepted in as general manner as it
was given. When she and her husband
had retired to their apartments he said
to her, 81 believe So-and-sO and So-and
So'-naming the men his wife disap-
proved of-''intend coming in with the
OtherS."- We'll, | guess they will not
dare" she returned. 'they understand
perfectly the estimate have of them"
Nevertheless, when the others arrived
they intimated that the tabooed men
had considered themselves included
in the invitation, and intended COM
ing later. The woman said nothing.
but when there was ring at the door
she notified her husband that she would
answer it, and went to face the sinners.
"What do you wish" she asked, in
reply to their effusive "Good evening""
Somewhat taken back. they answered,
1--WE understood you to ask us all in to
play cards tonight" Il said nothing
of the sort was the ccol retort; Il
never ask to my home men whose
morals | despise. Good evening"" She
Shut the door and returned to her guests
as if nothing had happened. The sequel
should Ge that the men walked right off
in fit of remorse to join the White
Cross movement. But they didn't. They
calculated, "What an uncOmmonly un-
civil Woman," and went down town for
9 drink.
