THE R1GHTsoRT OF MoNU1uENT.

Theright sort of monument that should be
erected to the memory of Jefferson Davis
who was the President of the whole South
ern Confederacy, is a gigantic Soldiers
Home at Richmond, the capital of the
whole Southern Confederacy, for the vete-
rams Of every State of the Confederacy and
on it's dome put statue of him, for he was a
soldier and gallant one. 1t would be a
grand climax and capstone to all the statue
and monument building of the Confederacy,
and when it was finished by the Southern
States there would be thrill Of satisfac-
ton throughout the fast fading limits of
the short lived government that the gallant
men who fought for it had place where
to lay their heads In age, OF sickness, OF
poverty. That is the monument to MI.
Davis that every Southern man should
wish for and that every South ern State
sho uld help to build.

The fast following weddings of the season
have very much excited Mrs. Boyzy. |
don't think that since the marriage of our
eldest girl have seen her so deeply inter
ested. 1t is on the subject of wedding
presents. | am very close observer of
human nature, that is to say of Mrs. Boy
Zy's human nature, and 1 have found that
on all such occasions she promotes me to a
full and equal interest in our household.
When she decides that it is the proper thing
to give a wdding present she always an
nounces that "we'' must do it. From the
moment it is decided on, she is under great
mental stress. She lays the most inge-
MUS plans to find out what the intended
bride wants, and whether anybody else is
going to send the same thing. 1t is dis
At these discussions 1 sometimes offer a
suggestion, a practical business suggestion,
which, strange to say, is not always
received in the spirit in which it is given.
1t was only last week that ''that Pettingill
woman''-Mrs. Boyzy was very much
vexed that morning having in cold blood
bought a wedding present which combined
cheapneSS with beauty and which my wife
had already decided on, 1 offered the sug
gestion that the best thing could see was
to ask an intended bride to say what would
be acceptable to her and if anybody that she
knew of had already determined to send her
that article. instantly received two inter
rogations. Mrs. Boyzy desired to know if
would ever learn anything" and our
youngest daughter in high key of sur
prise desired to be Informed by her mother

1 reach the conviction that women, as a
rule, have not practical business minds, and
are so deficient in this respect that they are
apt to jump at the conclusion that a person
even their nearest relative-who makes a
purely business suggestion is insane. The
battle, however, may be permitted to OBJ
serve, is not always to the strong and the
fact that Mrs. Boyzy bought a chiffonniere
and that Mrs. Pettingill afterwards changed
her present to a chiffonniere, and that the
brides mother bought chiffonniere, and
that Mrs. Boyzy does not now speak to
Mrs. Pettingill, and that young couple
with three chiffonnieres and no rocking
chair is sight calculated to produce COM
miseration, are good reasons for conclud-
ing that the practical sugge stions of the
humblest married man are not always ev-
licences Of insanity. In fact so strongly
was 1 impressed with this, that at break
fast yesterday mentioned the fact that l
had made a suggestion which would have
obviated this awkard situation. My wife
only said with an absent air of Indifference,
"Did you?' and on my pressing the subject
our youngest girl demanded to know Of her
mother "What IS Pa talking about?''
Women are an inscrutable and mysterious
production of Providence, and even in a
mans hour of victory have a deft way Of
turning it to ashes.
