The American boy.

A recent writer pays q glowing trib-
ute to tho American boy but says: "ln
the freedom and expansion OF American
life there is a tending to excess, which
appears everywhere in American
humor. in American enterprise and
speculation, and TO sum-up. in the
American boy. The spirit OF National
Independence has gone into the boys
heads. If the American youth does
not press forward and unlock the gold
en- gate OF life, to which art. science,
literature, all the shining avenues OF
enterprise are but the splendid APP
proaches, it will be chiefly for waste
OF 1.-The master-key OF knowledge, rev.
erence." There was never any bette r
stuff in the world for the shaping OF
men than there is in the American boy
of to-day. OF the young volun-
teers who flew to arms at the
outbreak of the civil war, it was found
that those who had been gently
nurtured were not only among the
bravest in battle but the most cheer
full and accomplishing amidst the
miseries Of hospital, bivouac and
march. Even when wicked he is not
often mean in his wickedness; ha
might be the hero of Plutarchs story
of the Lacedaemonia lad, who. having
stolen fox, held it concealed under
his cloak while it tore his bowels out
rather than have the theft discovered.
With all his feelings, says the writer,
which are many and manifest, he
has courage. gayety. endurance, readi-
ness Of wit and potency Of will. Give
direction to those forces, deepen his
conscience and elevate his point of
view. and the future OF the American
boy is secure.

"WEEDS OR GRASS" WHICH?
A "Civorce Cap" to Distinguish
Her Widowship.

F1eT wluoWSnlp
San Francisco lady writing to the
Chronicle is anxious for some distin-
gushing mark to distinguish widows
and suggest for the one Divorce Cap.
1t might be pertinent to remark that
IT, pre- might be two biHds-one trimmed
with weeds. the other with grass. This
lady says: IL think there ought to be
some kind OF divorce cap. A man
docs not need one. He always looks
single. But if some inventive milliner
will think up u design for hat that
will permit you to understand whether
q woman is sninster married or di-
vOrced she will save men a great deal
OF trouble. The most trying thing for
o man to find out about a woman he
has fallen in love with Is a husband.
He can stand almost anything else and
still hope. But the pretty widow with
the child always dresses the child up in
a way to attract attention. There
something about the contrast between
the two and the way she treats the
child that seems to say, This poor
child has no father" And man, poor
sympathetic man, with his heart drawn
to youthful innocence, thinks he is
catching the mother by giving candy
to the infant. The mother, bless her
dear, unsuspecting, frank, ingeniou:
heart is catching him and saving the
expense of the family bonbons. Pity
is akin to love, is itP 1t seems to me
that love is akin to pity. Anyway,
men don't pity women when they dom,
love them. but they love them very
often when they don't pity them. 9th
err women do the plying.
