THE HEAD OF THE FAMILY.

Who Filled That Position.

There Wasn't Particle of Doubt as to
who Filled That Position.
It's awful hard to tell sometimes
where the head of the family is, says
the San Francisco Chronicle. What
with the girl being able to do just
what she likes with her father, and
the boy being able to wheedle his
mother into doing anything he wants
her to, society is in bad way. All,
we'll The authority of affection is
very pleasant theory, not altogether
safe as it is. The republican form of
government is perhaps not the best in
household. The house wants an
emperor, governed by an empress. The
young people in the family nowadays
vote before they come of age. don't
know that the old gentleman I saw
with his family in restaurant the
other day is quite the thing, but there
could not be any mistake about who
was the head of the family. There
were three or four of them-the old
gentleman, his wife, and I think two
daughters. He led the march into the
restaurant and waved the family to
seats at one of the tables. He hung
up his hat, and then he took his chair,
spread his legs out, picked up the bill
Of fare, and held it between his hands
with his elbows on the table. He
looked at it, and then he laid it down,
leaned back, and called the waiter
with sweep of his arm.
| "Come here" he said
| The waiter came. He faced his
wife, and pointed at her with his finger
as he said:
\. "Maria, what will you take ?"
II think I'll take some mutton
chops" said Maria, mildly.
4No, you won't" with his finger still
pointed at her. "You won't take nj
