AT THE SIGN or THE SKULL.


A strange old tavern have seen.
The walls are thick, the garden green. 4
'Tis damp and foul, yet through the door
Do rich men come as well as poor.
They come by night, and they come by day
And never a guest is turned away.
The landlord. an unwholcsome fellow,
Has a complexion white and yellow. =
And though he looks exceedingly thin q
Does nothing else but grin and grin =
AT all his guests. who. after awhile, $
Begin to initiate his smile.
The guests are a fearful sight to see,
Though some are people of high degree.
For no one asks when q carriage arrives
A decent account of tho inmates lives.
But holy virgins and men Of sin
Sleep cheek by jowl in this careless inn.
And beautiful youths in their strength and
pride
Have taken beds by leper's side,
But all sleep well, and it never was said
That any kind OF complaint was made.
For all the people who pass that way
Appear ito intend lengtherred stay.
The house has singular bill of fare
Nothing dainty, nothing rare,
But only one dish, and that dish meat.
Which never guest was known to eat.
Night and day the meal goes on,
And the guests themselves are fed uponl
These merry guests are all of them bound
To q land far of, but never found
That'any one knew when he should start,
Or wished from this pleasant house to part.
o strange old tavern. with garden greenl
In every town its walls;areseen.
Now the question has often been asked of me,
Il it really as bad rs it seams to be?

May Women Smoke?

The burning question whether women
may smoke is still being publicly debated
with great energy. Lady Colin Camp
bell comes out defiantly in favor of the
privilege in the last number of an Eng
lish illustrated magazine. She declares
that the finer clay of woman has more
need of tobacco than mans. 1t is the
cigarette, of course, that Lady Campbell
would like to see more often between
her sisters lips.
Mrs. Lynn Lynton contributes coun-
ter blast, which, for purposes OF convic-
ton, protests rather too much. She
sums it up, however, in saying;
1.-The core CT this movement is not spe-
cial love for tobacco, pure and simple,
but the determination of modern woman
to ignore the limitations, the apportion-
ments, the conventional proprieties, as
well as elemental differences of SEX

Her Powers Defined.

The attorney general OF Illinois informs
Mrs. Florence Kelley, appointed under
the factory and workshop law recently
enacted in Illinois, that her powers as in
spector are not limited to the factories
and workshops specified in one section
of the act, but extend to cases where GER
tain other sections are violated. Under
this Interpretation an inspector, such as
Mrs Kelley, has right to investigate
all cases arising under violation of its
provisions prohibiting the employment
of women and girls for more than eight
hours of each day, or any employment
of children under IA years, or the en-
ployment of youths of either sex between
IA and 1G years, except under regulations
insuring their physical soundness. This
decision gives the newly appointed in
spectors wide powers of supervision.
They began work on July 90, with head
quarters at PAT West Polk street, Chica-
go. Mrs. Kelley is a Philadelphian,
daughter Of the late Judge Kelley. Be
ing now divorced from her Russian hus-
band, she has resumed her maiden name.
