A SINGLE FARE.-A widow who gave
her name as Mrs. Simpson came into
the Union depot Thursday over the c.
b. and Q road from Pierre, S. D., with
eight children. They all rode on one
ticket. That was the one the mother
had bought for herself. The entire
Union Depot force was laughing about
it. The widow had changed roads sew
eral times. Each time She met new
conductor a row ensued, but she came
out victorious every time. The child
ren were all small. The railway rules
allow children under years Of age TO
ride free. "Are they all your cnildren?"
the conductor would ask. "Yes, sir,
they are. Don't they look like me 2"
"Well, l can't carry all of them, for
some of them are over years old. :"
"Why, there are two pairs of twins in
among them, she would exultantly eX-
claim then all the passengers would
laugh, and the entire delegation got
their little feet on the one ticket and
rode safely through.-Cinciaaa'i En-,

THE USE or SLANG.
Is u More Frequent Among the Girls or
the boysS

~ ~ Nac'N
the BoysS
A writer tn the baltimore Sun states
thut girls use more slang-espcciully II
they are grown up-than boys do.
Girls. IL is affirmed, talk mnch more
than boys, so that their stock of un-
couth words is in more frequent use. 1t
Is also larger. II q boy were n mine Of
slang his taciturnity would keep It con-
ccnlcd from all but u few OF his chums.
His inventions are confined to n small
circle, and his opportunities of borrow
ing are corrcspondingly diminished.
Not so with the girl, The loquacity of
her associates, aided by her own,
spreads and tnultiplies slang with the
greatest rapidity. She is more sociable.
At school she is thick with u dozen
and gathers in all the dozen know. And
besides, says the same authority, girls
arc so reckless in the use of language
that they give n slungy character to
good English. With the girl Mt the
period of givglehood every good thing
is perfectly" SO. She never" does this
md shc always" does that. She some
times ''fecls hateful" but it is oftencr
some one else who is perfectly horrid."
Nearly everything is awful" Such
nro Come of the charges this abominable
person brings against the sweet young
creatures. Another authority fatty
contrddicts them all and says the boy is
the sum Of all ~villainics. The words he
prefers, it is asserted, arc so tingcd
with profanity hat he cannot use them
at home, and it is thus only that he gets
his reputation for freedom from slang.
Who can settle the dispute? We are of
opinion that injustice is done to the
girls. We are confident also that few
boys are as bed us represented. 1t is
/ possible that the so4callcd authority"
has been Judging the whole world fror
his fcM unfortunate associates.
