AK EYE TO THE FUTURE.
Souvenirs = Chicago Young Woman Likes
to Receive.

to Receive.
A Chicago young woman has
unique and extensive collection o!
souvenirs presented her by her male
friends. Ordinarily women make
great mistake in collecting souvenirs,
simply because they do not collect the
proper things. 1t may be safely as-
serted that no young man likes ayoung
woman any better because she displays
a bracelet on which are bangles given
her by half hundred former lovers.
Neither do young men feel any more
kindly toward a young woman because
she can display large collection of
mems photographs. The young woman
who boasts of having innumernble
locks of hair given her bv Tom, Dick
and Harry should not feel surprised if
the calls OF her male friends become
fewer and farther between.
Men as a rule object t, being put ION
the list" They do not care to add just
one more photograph to the collection
or another bangle to the bracelet.
Something seems TO say Next" to
them Just as BARRIERS do to men await
ing their turn to be shaved. But the
collection of souvenirs and :nementoes
being made by the young woman re-
ferred to is such that the usual objec-
tions to such things cannot be urged 50
strongly in her cast. Her souvenirs are
not bangles, nor photographs, nor
locks Of hair. nor necllties, nor any
thing OF the sort, but they are cigars.
Every young man who calls on her is
requested to leave cigar as n memento
of his visit. Every man who wishes to
give her aeouvenir commemorative of
any incident, time or place is told that
a cigar is all that will answer the pur-
pose, and the young woman insists that
it be a good cigar. She already has a
large number of such kecpsakcS, care
fully wrapped in tinfoii, and attached
to each label telling why, where,
when, and from whom received.
The young woman asserts that on the
day she weds she will give each and
every one of these souvenirs to her hus-
band, to be smoked by him. In this way.
she says, she hopes to avoid the petty
jcalousies which usually result from
the receiving and retaining OF SOU
venirs. She reason that SO long as her
husband can smoke ut the expense of
the young men who have previously
shared her society he will be good
natured about it and consider that he
is getting the best of the bargain. But
if the to-be-defeated rival learns Of the
! arrangement he may assist the young
lady in supplying her future husband
with a stock of vile cigars, the smoking
OF which will in a great measure lesser,
the feeling of triumph which the victor
is supposed to entertain toward the
vanquishcd.

hardly open to SO earnest believer in
the divine rule to doubt the soundness
OF such an answer. Doubtless, how
ever, the question was in its form
rather rhetorical than reasoning, and
Mr.. Gladstone meant to imply that the
purpose of the idle rich is as puzzling
as that of any other kind of evil. as to
which mankind has specul atad from

in that way, the significance of it is in
the light it throws not merely Oh the
