As to Engaged Girls.

The most important girl to-day is
the one who is engaged. Nothing so
well describes her as to call her "per-
KY" She blissfully believes that the
world was created that she and her
special young man might have met
and loved, and she is overwhelmingly
condescending to every other girl who
has not OH her third finger bethroth-
al ring. She is very empathic and
does not hesitate to give her advice
OH any subject whatever, from the
latest styles in frills and frivols to
how to train the baby. She has dis
covered the proper sphere of women
to get married, and she dosen't hest
tate to tell each girl in her immediate
set that it is really shame that she
does not come to some conclusion
about Tom, Dick or Harry. She pat
ronizes her mother, is gently condos
cending to her father, and overwecn-
ingly masterful to the man she has
made happy.
She guards his throat and his purse,
she solves righteous problems for him
and voices his opinion on politics.
He may be six feet two and trained
athlete, but when he is with her he is
suggestive of nothing else but Mary's
little lamb, and you almost wonder
that he dosen't wear blue ribbon
with silver bell on it around his
throat. The engaged girls delight
is to talk to the young matron, who,
with keen sense Of fun, usually ex-
aggerates the snags of matrimony and
joys in making her feel that she must
train Tom properly else her marriage
will be failure. While he is engag-
ed Tom submits even up to the time
of the marriage he is humble, willing
to be counted as the second best man,
but after he has gotten that young

Loveless Marriages.

Marriage without love-" said Col.
Ingersoll in his argument in the Cam
merer- Muller breach of promise case
on Saturday, "is minors The
woman who marries a man because
he is rich, for title, or for office,
place, or power, is not virtuous
woman, and the man who marries a
woman for any such reason is not a
virtuous man, but contemplate
wretch"
OF recent years clergymen have not
been in the habit of taking Col. Inger-
soils utterances as texts for sermons,
but we think the remarks quoted fur
nish food for pulpit comment which
would be quite as valuable as any dis
cussion as to the location Of heaven or
hell. Since Col. Ingersoll's attitude
Of hostility toward the church has
been softened by years and reflection
into confession of agnosticism, in
volving the admission that he knows
nothing about the creation of life, the
church might possibly with propriety
take cognizance of what he says as to
one of the most noticeable customs of
the day, that of marrying for money.
If the clergy should agree that
some acts which pass for virtue are
not virtuous, the mothers of heiresses
would stop the hunt for titled foreign
ers, and the mothers of poor girls
would no longer engage in the chase
for rich husbands. The cure, if cure
there be, must be worked with the
gentler sex, for the reason that virtue
is in the keeping Of that sex. They
would view with horror an immoral
alliance. Mothers would shudder at
the thought of such an alliance for
their daughters, and if the clergymen
should decide that marriage without
love is not merely unwise. but actual
ly immoral, and could make it plain
to the members of their focks that
persons contracting such marriages
were not virtuous, there would be a
few women who would take the odium
of loveless marriages for the money
or position which they might bring.
The question still remains whether
marriage without love is immoral.
Col. Ingersoll says it is. We should
like to hear the question definitely
answered without qualification by the
clergymen.-Ex.

that he holds the checks, Tom becom-

no nonsen'e about him, and when my
little lady talks Of his giving up the
athletic club and joining a reading
class, or becoming director of one of
the hospitals and devoting one morn
ing each week to cultivating Sanskirt,
Thomas merely remarks that he will
see, which means that he will see her

paper, and figured and calculated.
He made list of all the property he
possessed. He added them up and
added them down. Then he set down
a list of all the things he was ac-
customed to spend upon that could be
dispensed with. Then he brought
out book on economy, where it tells
how man can live cheaper with a
frugal wife than he can alone. He
was astonished to find that book SO
intensely interesting.
The next day Tom went again to
see the baby. In fact, it seemed to
him as if the afternoon would never
come. He had more waiting to do at
the cottage, for Malvina's mother re-
ceived him, and she did not appear.
At last his impatience spurred him to
ask.

young man. will be frank with you
and tell you the truth !"
"Oh! Mrs. Barker" cried Tom.
"She's a simple child, sir, and is in
danger not to und erstand that atten-
tions from one like you can mean
nothing"
Dear Mrs. Barker, you mistake
me entirely. must see her this once.
l must indeed If she sends me away
l will never come again"
Tom conquered. When he explain
ed to Malvina about his small income,
and consulted with her about its suf-
ficency, she told him that he ought to
be ashamed indeed to waste such
heap of money on one. He should
have left half of it to the heather.
Toms income has held out better
than when he was single. Young

A DYE Story.

Mono Lake constitutes one of the
greatest natural deposits of hair dye
in the known world. A white haired
old Bodie man who went down to the
lake this summer was so pleased with
the bathing to be had there that he
went in for swim regularly every
evening after finishing his days work.
He was down at the lake two weeks,
and when he got back to Bode his
friends hardly knew him. He left
Bodie a white-haired old man, and
came back a golden blonde and ap.
parently man of only middle age.
All who battle in the waters OF
that lake become blondes, and if the
bathing be persisted for any length of
time they get to be red-headed. A
man last spring rented the Leavining
ranch on the north side of the lake.
He had three daughters. AS soon as
the water became warm enough the
girls daily went bathing, taking for
their mermaid gambols time when
the "men follsS were all out on the
ranch at work. When they began
taking their dips in the lake their hair
soon became blonde. This so delight
ed them that they began bathing
themselves twice day, and between
times washed their heads in water from
the lake.
The old man had noticed the change
in the color of their hair and was
much astonished. He kept quiet till
their hair became a fiery red, and
then he went after the old woman
about it. When he got SO bad he
talked about killing red-headed man
who had been his neighbor, his old
woman told him that it was only the
water of the lake-tbat the transfer
nation was caused by the girls bath
ing in the lake.
The old man said it might be, but
he was not satisfied He ordered the
old lady to battle every day with the
girls, saying that if she became red
headed he would think there was
something in it. Soon the bair of
the old woman was as red as that of
the daughters. The old man still
thought there was some trick about
the business. so he tried the baths him.

Ingenious Arrangements Allowing the
Infant to Take Care of Itself.

infant to Take Care of Itself.
A British traveller in the "wild
West" saw a baby strapped to board,
which was leaning against the shady
side of a frontier shanty. The moth
er did not seem to be about, but the
baby looked happy and kept up con-
slant movement of its little arms.
The Britisher was puzzled. He urg-
ed his horse a little closer and re-
marked some strings dangling from
the baby's neck, one of them being
tied to its rosy big toe. Thereupon
he dismounted from his tired "saw.
buck" and proceeded to examine the
curious arrangement. He thus tells
of what he saw:
The child, l found, was complacent.

as large as walnut. This was tied
to one end of string, which at the
other end was fastened to the baby 5
toe. A second piece of Irvine, knotted
to the board over the baby's head,
prevented the pork from falling to
the ground, should the child loosen
its grip upon it.
Nine men out of ten would proba-
bly, have detected at once the connect
ing link between the toe and the pork

Presently the baby's head got very
red, its eyes filled with tears, and its
little arms beat the air with frantic
energy. 1t gradually dawred upon
me that the child might be choking

mother made her appearance.

"No he amt, and he can't" she
answered tersely, and at that instant
the infantile legs began to work.

to the kicking leg. | was vastly re-

the strike must come, and prefer to

the impression that the line was badly
constructed and so gain the sympathy of
the public when the time arrives.
