senator kindly informed the distinguished guest
that he, the emperor, would be expected to re-
main until the other guests had taken their
leave. The mistress Of the white house had also
notified her guests that they would be expected
TO follow. not precede the royal party Ia leav-
ing the house. The time came to 60 but no
one dared depart first. The emperor, accord
ing to instructions, was waiting for the others
to go and the orders were waiting for him to
move. The deadlock continued for an hour or
more, TO the embarrassment of everybody, and
was only broken by tired-out woman who
pretended studded illness. The incident illus
trates what beautiful thing social etiquette is

The RECENT UPRISING in Kansas has turned
the Female Thinker loose. She takes all the
credit to herself for the political revolution.
and the farmer who did the voting simply did
as she told him to do. There his responsi bility
ends and he can bstake himself again to his
bees and COWS. The Female Thinker now talks
of the marriage relation and the possible effect
her new emancipated condition will have
upon it. In her opinion men will
have great trouble hereafter to get
wives. For instance, Susan B. Anthony
says: THE woman of the future is not
going to snatch at everything that passes for
man because it draws a salary" Lille Dever-
