seen numerous instances of international
unions, and in every case, the American

SENATOR KENNA AS THE PERFECT MAN.
Miss Margaret Kenna, daughter of the
brilliant Senator from West Virginia, I'M
like most young women cares little for the
society OF gentlemen, and her social duties
form but secondary part IN her busy lie.
Possessing considerable artistic talent,
Miss kenna has endowed her home with
numerous beautiful specimens of her skill
with the brush, in addition to which she
has contributed some interesting articles
to Catholic periodicals and of late made
successful debut in the newspaper world.
Ar ardent admirer of her father, she re-
CARDS all other men as far inferior to mis-
standard in manly attributes and domestic
virtues, and though universally popular,
this daughter of the south has never yet
felt the divine essence of a love that will
overlook all faults of the man in the
charmed atmosphere of an ideal hero Pass
ing safely through the woods, she will in
all probability at the end of the road, meet
with her fate in one less pefect than her
model, yet to her eyes all that the most crit
ical could desire.
JEANNE wINsToN's IDEALS.
The actress. Miss JEANNE Winston, has
had wide experience with men in many
lands. She has views of her own about
them and her talk on the subject is inter
esting. Said she:
sin the first place, there can be no true
marriage without that congeniality OF soul
that begets mutual confidence. Brave,
! tender and true, he will be courteous to all
whether of high or low degree. OF women
above all he should avoid evil speaking, &C
cording to each, the honor due her sex.
What matter the color of his eyes, so that
they be true and possessed OF latent fire,
Tall, powerful and WE'LL knit in form. mere
| beauty of feature is of small account, es-
pecially as most classically handsome men
are marred by the fault Of vanity. A deep
melodious voice is an important attribute.
A man of culture and refinement, his COM
J partnership will prove an unfalllng source
of pleasure, and his influence will naturally
prove eleyating. To be truly welded, he
should be fitted to share the domestic inter
ests, yet by no means a ''Miss Nancy He
may smoke in moderation and even drink,
so long as he confines his indulgence to his
/
of clubs. He should give literally so far as
his means will permit. He should be strong
| in his convictions yet liberal as to the opin-
ions of others; trusting in his wife and
ever ready to give his confidence where his
love has already been bestowed. In word,
a husband should be a comrade, helpful,
and fond, believing and true at heart. This
is my ideal husband and the only one
worthy the devotion of faithful wife.
Nevertheless, she continued, II never eX-
pect to meet such an one."
ANOTHER VOICE FROM THE WEST.
Miss Maud Morrow, daughter of William
Morrow, late delegate to Congress from
California, though still little more than a
school girl and not yet formally introduced
into society, is young lady OF marked good
sense and striking beauty inherited from
both father and mother who have shown in
the training of their children wise discre-
ton that must rarely fail Of its reward.
found Miss Maud one morning last week
seated alone in the midst of preparations
for an early departure, in their private par
lor at the Richmond and took advantage OF
the opportunity afforded to question her
upon her beau ideal of husband
Just such man as my father!" she ex-
claimed. ''E'or he is perfect So manly and
gentle withal 1 could never be satisfied
with anyone who in my opinion failed to

beaux has not left very favorable i'm
preston upon me. There seems to be SO
little energy and push in the men of the
east In our state, a young fellow knows
that he must work his way up If he wishes
to succeed, and that if he fails he has only
himself to blame They thereupon learn to
form aspirations above dancing, and can
talk upon subjects more interesting than
the mere society twaddle of the hour. Men
make great mistake when they imagine
that girls enjoy nonsense. Under the cir
cumstances | am well satisfied to make my
debut among my own people, although
have keenly enjoyed the little glimpse l had
of the destinations of a Washington win

Senator. Fresh from the restrictions Of
