A handsome nose is rarely found in an
otherwise ugly face. perhaps. because
the nose is itself the chief chaiucteris-
tic or keynote. Beautiful eyes or hips
have more charm; their form and ex-
preston are what we remember most
clearly in the absence of those we love,
but It is, after all. the nose which most
affects the general character Of the face.
To be OF the right proportion, a nose
should equal in length the height of tho
forehead; II the brow is exceptionally
low, as In some Of the Greek statues,
the nose may be even relatively longer.
but It can never be shorter without I'M.
parting insignincance to the whole coun-
tcnance. All extremes in form are to b
deprecated, unless 1t Is the Greek. and
even that in its unmitigated perfection
looks better on a coin than a living wo-
man. who has not attained sainthood.
The end of the nose shout be neither
sharp nor fleshy, but we'll defined.

Going Unattended at NIGHT.

Now Is the time for woman's rights
adherents to stamp by universal custom
and so extend, a correspondent writes to
the Boston Traveller, the privileges of
women under forty till the sight of a
young and tastefully dressed m
unattended at an evenings entertain
ment would cease to call forth oppro-
bious comment; then, indeed, we would
be stepping forward. 1t Is a poor sort
of American girl who cannot look out
for herself in any assemblage or on our
brightly lighted th~oroughfares. A man
has to be considerably seas over to per-
sist in unwelcome attentions, and with
our present running Of street cars there
is no question Of personal safety till long
after theatre hours. 1.-TWO pair back"
and a mending basket Is a dreary ending
to a day of prosaic routine, but a two
pair back with the privilege of leaving
1t at will, becomes a rather restful sort
Of haven. II as women we must equal
men in orderly business work. why not
demand an orderly u recognized equal
ity in play as we'll?

There are reported TO be 1S male
teachers in the public schools Of Boston
and 1872 women. The average salary
of the men per month Is $246, .06. and the
average salary per month Of the women
Is S7O.69. To what extent the larger
salary is a pure bonus to the male sex
is an interesting question. ays the Bos-
ton Globe. Doubtless the fac that many
of the higher salaried posts are held by
men accounts for more or less Of this
disparity, but 1t by no means accounts
for all. Sc far as a man receives higher
remuneration than n woman can secure
for the same labor this excess Is a pure
bonus handed over on account OF sex.
OF course, old (but not venerable) Gus
tom sanctions the payment to women OF
less for the same labor and service than
Is paid to men. but this Is an age when
equal rights are supposed to be main
tanned and fair play to all Is supposed
to rule. Why are women still paid less
for the same work than men receiver

In Rome, for instance, the law forbade

THE DUTY OF THE MAJORITY.

Any settlement OF the silver question
on the basis Of the Compromls" reported
In "Thc Evening World" OF saturday.
viii leave undecided the nRs; important
issue raised durinS the Contrpversy.
This issue should be decided at the
earliest possible moment. either before
or Immediately aftc: the Rc9"al bill Is
out of the way.
1t Is whether the majority or the
minority must rule.
1t was known that the Senate con
ducteI It's proceedings under an anti
qudtol ana absurd code 81 procedure.
1t was known that senatorial courtesy
had been carried TO a ridiculous cy-
IRENE. But tht country hal l;tle con-
ccption of how far senators would go
in their construction OF rU'os adopiHl -
facilitate as well as to regulate the pro-
ceedings. 1t WAS assumed that after a
reasonable time for deNberat.oa and de-
bate the majority could force II vote
upon any proposition. II was assume
that no rule would be so construed as TO
override the Constitution ana defeat one
OF the chief objects for which 1t was
adopted. No one outside Of the Senat"
dreamed of the contention that one-rfth
of the Senate could defeat the wishes OF
four-nfths and iestroy the power "a that
body to perform its proper functions as
a part of the National legislature.
But such IA construction has been In
sisted ON by II number of senators, nota-
bly, by one OF the oldest and most cH-
periencCd members of the body. 1t has
been practically put in operation.
The result has startled the country
and inspired n universal demand for n
reversal OF the doctrine.
The passage OF the repeal bill in the
manner proposed will leave this vital
Issue unsettled. 1t will even leave the
moral advantage with those Senators
vino have insisted on the absurd CON
struction. 1t will afford n warrant to
any Cutcrie or minority to obstruct leg
i~slation on any subject that may arise,
1t matters not how important the matter
may he or how solcmnly the majority
may be pledged to net upon 1t.

To the EDITOR:
wish to call your attention to what I call an
injustice to our Jewish citizens. ASI was coming
through Essex street. near Division street. Satur-
day, oct. IL. l saw oficor No. - standing In
company with another officer when n Hebrew
comes quietly walking along. when ofhcer
No. - walked over and got hold Of his side
whinkers and pulled them TIL the tears came out
of the poor mans eyes. Then both officers laughed
heartily at It as though 1t were some huge Joke.
Now. 1 would like to know II that 10 what our
policemen are for. and II a Hebrew has not as
much right to protection as anybody else. Know
Ing that you are always ready to remedy an In
justice done to any person. I am sure that you
will take this matter up and thereby earn the
gratitude Of not only the Hebrew population. but
OF every one OF your readers who likes to see
fair play. A. d.
