The Women Men Want.
SUGGESTIONS FOR THOSE WHO ARE IN THE
MATRIMONIAL MARKET.

SUGGESTIONS FOR THOSE WHO ARE IN THE
MATRIMONIAL MARKET.
Men often admire women for their intel
lectual culture, their skill in music, or
their taste in matters of dress; but they
do not love women because they possess
these distinguishing qualities.
Brainy women, so called, have great
many admirers, but they are not in de-
mand in the matrimonial market; at least
they are not fought over to any great ex-
tent.
Business men want wives who are COM
petent to manage the domestic end of their
business, and not such as have to be man
aged, or who want to manage all or moth
ing. The latter usually wrecks the bust
ness of the firm, or keep the man in such
state of worry that he only gets along
tolerably we'll.
A sensitive sensible business man doesn't
want wife who poses as the head Of the
domestic concern who carries the purse
and the night key, and practically wears
the trousers. There are some men who
like such wives, but they are exceptions
to the rule.
The best husbands in the land want
wives who are intelligent, practical and
affectionate; who take pride in their homes,
feel an interest in the success of their hus-
bands, and are ready to share either for
tune or Misfortune. Such woman is
brave, generous and independent, and will
command the respect of any honest. cour
teous man in the land. It will not be
asked Of her whether she speaks French
| or plays high. class music on the piano.
A man wants wife of whom he is
| proud, either at home or abroad. He
| wants her to be neat, tidy, and well-man-
nered. 1t is not really necessary that she
be pretty, but she must be agreeable, Of
kindly disposition, loving, and affectionate
The woman who is fitting herself fol
the position of wife should be careful no
to bank very heavily on either her prett.
face or good shape, nor even on her board
ing. school accomplishments. These ar
good enough to secure passing admiration
but they are not just the points sensible
| man looks for when he starts out to selec
a wife. He prefers good, every day com
nonsense, gentleness of disposition an,
soulful affection. ~ ittsburg Chronicle

A HOTEL INCIDENT.

We met on the stairway last evening
By the veriest chance in the world.
She smiled on me, blushing and rosy,
While I-my spectacles twirled.
Her cheeks were as red as June roses,
Her eyes were as blue as the sky,
Her lips oh, ye gods were delicious,
kissed them as she passed by.
All, that kiss! I can never forget it,
Pray think me not over-bold,
For am man turned of fifty,
And she-is but three years old.

If ever a monarch burned the candle at
both ends, the Emperor of Germany is the
man. Not content with getting up at 5
o'clock a. m. and breakfasting at $50
o'clock with his family, he has now had q
writing table, such as is used by invalids,
placed at the side of his bed, and it is his
practice when he cannot sleep, which is
frequently, to take pencil and paper and
begin making notes of the following days
work. 1t is not insomnia that keeps him
awake, but attacks of earache, which in
severe weather are always troublesome -

THE SPIDER AND THE FLY.

Wherever you chance to see this sign,
As you are passing by,

He asks the passer-by
Il have the finest instrument
That plenteous gold can buy;
1t cost me lots Of money, yet
For that / do not care.
If can entertain my friends
Why should money spare?
The way into my sitting room
Is just round this screen;
Nothing, be sure, that's done in there
Can from the street be seen;
You'll find inside nice easy chairs
And sofas of the best;
And you are very welcome, too,
Whene'er you'd like to rest.
I've placed expensive mirrors there
In frames bedecked with gold,
And now at any tine you wish
You may yourself behold;
And works of art by painters rare,
With taste adorn the wall
To welcome all my visitors
When they may chance to call.
The tables in my dining room
Are always richly set,
And lunches free served to my friends,
The best that can get.
Ialso keep the choicest brands
Of whisky, wines and beer,
And when you feel inclined to drink,
You'll find the best right here.
My house g. Q1fite respectable
And vefy 'ts o
Apleassnt place w stt nd chat,
When you have nothing else w do.
Here. too, you'll find all kinds Of games
To pass the time away;
Pool tables, billiards, cards and dice,
Whate'er you'd like to play"
Thus the cruel trap is baited
The spider sleek and sly,
Sits watching, scheming all the day,
To catch the idle, silly fly.

Tobacco smoke quickly communicates
delicate fruits of all kinds. A few puffs
blown upon box OF raspberries will en-
tirely destroy the delicate flavor of the
fruit and render it uneatable. The same
may in degree be said of strawberries.
This is something which but few growers
and shippers have ever considered. and too
much care cannot be taken to prevent the
use of tobacco where these fruits are being
handled. -Calif orniG Fruit Grosoer.

A Ten CLUB LEAGUE.
This nTacnates Have Probably Given Up
the Elght Club Idea.


CLEVELAND, o., March 4-The city is full
OF baseball men and everybody is anxious
to see what will be done by the League. The
schedule committee held meeting In the
Weddell house, but what was done has not
been divulged IL is limited, however, thai
a ten club schedule was adopted. A Broth
erhood schedule was laid before the commit.
tee by President Young, who had received
it from Secretary Brunell, OF the Players
league, but no attention was paid 10 IT, The
League schedule will be made up just the
same as if the brotherhood had no existence.
1t is pretty well settled that there viii be
no reduction in the number Of clubs com.
posing the League circuit this season. Presi.
dent Brush, of the Indianapolis club, when
asked by a United Pross reporter If he had
any intention OF selling out his team, he re-
piled:
IL have not / shall stay in the League
this season IL any Of them do. 10 may be
that the brotherhood could be fought
harder with eight than with ten clubs, but
/ don't feel like sacrificing my interests
now for somebody elsa. / have good clut
--one that will stand we'll up in the race
and / don't intend to give ii up This is the
season, above all others, that indianapolis
ought TO be in the League. We have no OPP
position our people are enthusiastic, and
the indications are that we will have the
best season ever known"
This is generally taken as Brush's fnal
answer. Ii was rumored this afternoon
that Detroit would make another effort to
break into the League nj this meeting, but
thus far no one representing that city has
put In appearance. II is said by the dele
gates present that there is no chance what
ever for Detroit to obtain franchise.
