ARE WE A RUDE PEOPLE?

Socially, it's q miserable state; SO it
is nationally. Gratitude is unknown
among the politicians, and nobody
stands ready to back anybody else
forever and forever. It is only while
they are some use to them. What's
the reason OF it all? We are not an

the rudest people in the world. We
might as well acknowledge this, be-.

but brutality is the order OF the day.

vices OF the tough without his courage
or goodness of heart; and the average

A TYPE OF NEW YORK MEN.

a TYPE OF NEW YORK MEN.
One is the type which the French.
man calls 'le mari complaisant.
The French are poitenation. Here
he usually is married to pretty wo-
man. He married her because he
thought she could be OF use to him.
She, poor fool, thinks he loved her.
That type OF man loves but one thing
in the world-hls despicable SELF He
introduces to his wife all the men he
knows who have money; he only OBJ.
lects to her acquaintance with those
who lack it. From that time on he
dimes, drives, is entertained at the
clubs and doesn't have to spend a
cent. Then he teaches this woman he
has sworn to love and honor the part
that she is to play. 1t may be that
she is to get pointers for him, SO that
his speculAtions may turn out well. It
may not be that she is absolutely to
get money for him, but, in some way
or another, she is to benefit him at
the expense of ner own self. Some.
times be has degraded her go that she
enters into the game with zest. Some.
times she refuses to do as he wishes
at first, and is literally forced into
it; and sometimes, having the courage
OF her convictions, she runs away
from him. She wants to get out OF
the tainted atmosphere, and when she
makes this effort she might as well
drown herself and be done with it, for
he will never cease to prosecute her.
You think this sounds exaggerated.
1t doesn't begin to tell OF the worst,

any right-minded man feel az if he
wanted to use some very plain Saxon

THE MAN OF LEPROUs HEART.
There is another type here in New

who believes in goodness, and is SYM

about the beauty OF love where two
souls are free, and the delights of a
