A little army woman and her husband
who had been badly wounded at an Indian
engagement, came east. says Clara Belll in
the Times De nocrGt. He went into hos
pital, and all her friends were kind to her
because they realized. how very likely he
was to die. One day, when they were con-
soling her. she looked up between her sobs
and said in quite a calm toue:
"After all, if Harry does die. suppose l
shall have all the bigger pension. because he
got his wounds in active service"
All, me, how few can sound the depths OF
a woman's hesrt2
Talk OF moonlight, says Clare Belle,
writing Of st. Augustine in the Cincinnati
Enquirer. A man simply can't help pro-
posing up in the watch tower even il he is
married and has a whole family right down
In the Ponce But the dungeons are per-
fectly awful. The place is the cid Spanish
fort, and everything reminds one of the in
QUESTION. Actually prowling about with
an officer, and hearing all the awful stories,
makes you want to be stolen by brgands,
and the only way to become modernized is
to go up st. George street and get O box Of

it was no such mean motive as vanity
which led to the acquisition of this treas
ure. On the contrary, it was deep yearn-
ing to investigate the subject of Easter
millinery for the benefit Of womaukind in
general, and as a result the writer is pre-
pared to give directions for duplicating her

Even In our photographs, it seems we
are scheming, says Clara Belle In the
Times Democrat.
'When a girl comes in and insists on a
certain pose or expression" said a photog-
rapher, ''you can be sure she is getting up
a picture Tor a certain man. she has quar-
relied, perhaps, and she means TO convey by
the picture that she is sorry. Very few
girls will say that they are sorry, but they
will go to elabora Q trouble and some ex-
peuse to get picture representing them
looking mournfully into space, or
%, please DON'T be cross with
me' way. Their idea is to put
the picture up in some conspicuous place
where he will see It, His heart will be soft
ened, he will say something, and then they
can have II over. Sometimes the pose Is to
be one Of scorn and contempt, or amuse-
ment, that implies that she has not been
taken in at all. and that she is all right.
That is when the girl has been Tilted, or
feels she has said too much. or has had her
pride hurt In any way. A girls pride is
dearer 10 her than anything else, to Judge
by the pictures she has taken. They are
great actresses, these girls, all of them
Some OF the very incest have crazes for
dress that are half off, the kind made popu-
lar with actresses Of fine shoulders. The
average society girl can make a better pose
for innocent Inconsistencies than the aver
age actress can and one wonders et It. The
innocent unconscious pose Is looking over
one shoulder, the draperY being slipped off
that shoulder and the whole picture fading
out 20 leave the figure sufficiently un-
det1ned-a really pretty artistic effect,
SO far as the picture goes. but 1t IL odd
that really nice girls are willing to pose In

Of them clad as Bcarsily as the picture re-
QuiTes. But they ars; they don't sseIn to
care In the least, aud treat the operator as
nobody at all. If girl has particular
dimple she is not a bit back ward about
saying SO and explaining that she wants it
quires a real contortiouist's act on her part.
Girls have an idea that men like to see such
pictures of them. Maybe they do, but it is
funny TO any one in the business to see how
girl always bushes, pretends to hide the
pictures, says it was a pose of the photog,
rsphers, that she really didn't know what
he was doing, and that she has only that
one, anyhow, when you may be sure that
the photographer had an awful time get
ting that particular pose just to suit her.
Girls are queer, but it's good for the
trade"
How spirited, beautiful attractive Amer
lean women can submit to be made the OBJ
jects OF barter and sordid calculation is one
OF the wonders of this fn-de~siecIe civiliza-
tiou, soys the New York Tribune. And
yet there have been several instances known
where girls have been subjected to the NOR
tifying indignity or being actually Tilted for
no other reason than that their prospective
incomes were not as large as their noble q?
suffers supposed them to be when they COM
mltted themselves SO far as to offer their
hearts and their titles to an A nerican heir
ess. So the recreant knights ride away to
fresh fields and pastures now, leaving the
deserted maideDs to wear the willow and
face the comments of a plying or jeering
world. Such position is simply intolera-
BILE, and it is no wonder that health
and spirits fail and that lives are spoiled
ia consequence. Tue hardest part Of it all,
moreover, is that girls are not to really
love these titled sultors, who are often at
tractive men OF the world, surrounded with
ell the glamor OF fashion and position
