yvAy Woman Marry.

'BaB, the Charming society cor
respondent of the St. Louis Re.
public, 10 a recent letter from New
York. gives the different reasons
why woman marry.
"At a fashionable wedding the
.otler day a man said to me: What
do women marry for?' I thought q
little bit and I said, Experience
And he answered me, What do
yon think men marry for? And |
told him | believed it was because
men thought it was the proper
1hiug to do, and that although he
wasn't supposed to be a p~articu.
larIy proper animal, man looked
out very much more for the pro-
prieties than does woman.
Women are lovely, exceptionally
lovely. at criticising the lack OF
thought displayed by another woman,
but blessed little idiots, for the sake
of a cause, or for the sake Of q man
they will rush ahead and never
MUD what the world says, and it is
the mar who generally stops them.
He thinks either Of his business or
his social position, and he doesn't
propose that either of them will be
affected by a woman.
"Yoa see the day las gone by
when a man would do anything for
a woman; countries need to be
either very young or very old when
this sort of thing happens but after
all / can't help bat remember thai
question, What do women marry
Tor !?
Some women marry because
they want a home Of their own, and
these are my conclusions:
Some women marry because
they haven't the moral courage &c
remain single.
Some women marry because
they want a little more in theil
purse and a little larger credit a
The shop.
Some women marry because
they want to put Mrs" on theil
visiting cards.
"Some women marry becaus'
their mother wants them to.
Some women marry becaus,
"a man asked them to and they dom
like to say no.
Some women marry for money
money, and nothing else. Tbes
women get the money and with ]
great responsibilities they neve
dreamed Of
Some women marry because the,
love the man, because they want to b
his wife, his friend, and his helpmate
because they want to make him fee
sthat there ID one woman in til
world whom he can love and cheris
and from whom he will receive Low
and consideration in return. Becaus
they want to make him feel that
sorrow comes he has a sympathizine
loving friend close beside him, an
that in the day of JOY there is on
who can give him smile for smile
These are the women worth marry
ing. The others are of little wort
and never would be missed if the
suddenly dropped ont of the matri
monidl bonds.

MONSON.

Work at one of the Reynolds mills at Monson is in suspense because of strike among the weavers against a reduction of prices for piece work. The weavers say that they were getting none too large pay before the reduction. The mill owners say that temporary increase of pay was made because of bad working stock, and that when good stock would again enable the employees to make fair pay the old rate was restored. They will pay off the help and await their own convenience in recognizing working force. The work men, meanwhile, express strong conf dence in the justice of what they claim, and that they will get what they ask for.
 Marcus Keep Post of Monson have se- cured Rev. B. s. Wheeler of South Bos- ton, veteran of the late war, to deliver the memorial address Decoration day.
