Not long since was waiting for train
in n certain depot, says the chicago
Herald. Standing near me was woman
elegantly dressed and rather good looking,
with the beauty that pertains TO
painted flower pot that holds nothing
fresher than dried grasses. Upon her hip,
as you have seen poor, overworked women
sometimes carry their babies, she bore a
fat, black-muzzled English pug. The
breadth Of its back was at least a foot IN
measurement. Upon that back was q
fiery red satin bow. The woman seemed
rather exhausted, but the dog was full Of
drowsy content. BY the woman's side;
half hidden by her skirts, tossed and
jostled by the crowd, was little child:
Mamma" it cried, "come home. I'm
so tired"
At first looked at the dog, and the
temptation to drag il from it's resting
place and put the child in its stead was
strong upon me. Fear of hydrophobia re-
strained me. Then / looked at the woman
and my gaze assumed the poignancy OF q
double-barreled shaft of scorn. Then
looked at the poor little child, and its mt
ed eyes full of weary tears broke down the
last vestige of my reserve. Madam,
said |, just loud enough for her to hear,
"you are disgrace TO our sex NOW,

| good, that they are unladylike and discount

place, in the world where they revolve and
