Tho Power of Beauty.

Seated in a brokers' office on the second
floor of a big business block in Broadway,
near Trinity church, the writer became In
terested and amused the other day watch
ing the behavior of stalwart policeman,
whose chief duty for the time being was
plotting women and old men safely across
the crowded thoroughfare. The officer was
full bearded and apparently past the me-
ridian of life. His manner was at all times
dignified, almost courtly, in fact. To each
feminine appeal for assistance in getting
across the street he responded politely and
never negligently, but his method of es-
cortiug persons from sidewalk to sidewalk
varied noticeably. For every young and at
tractive woman he had a gracious smile
and a fatherly laying on of hands-that is,
he would eithe. grasp the young woman's
arm, or else permit his gloved hand to rest
gently on her shoulder as he accompanied
her across the street. In no instance did
he offer to touch an elderly or very plain
appearing woman. His stick, held out be-
fore him like weather vane, was apparent
ly sufficient, in his judgment, to secure safe
passage for persons who lacked the quality
of personal attractivepesS.-New York

characteristics of Woman Writers.

If the theories about sex in art, the lack
of the artistic impulse in women, and all
the rest of it be true, it seems singular
that of all the women scribes who have
written under mems signatures, from
George Sand and George Eliot to John
Strange Winter, Charles Egbert Craddock
and their contemporaries, not one has been
suspected by her reviewers of being a
woman until her identity has been revealed
by her friends Another popularity of the
woman writer is in her just and sympa-
thetic conception of the mans character,
describing him not as god of supreme pow
er and majesty, or a villain of consummate
treachery and guilt, but rather an intensely
human, lovable creature whom it was a
delight to forgive for such sins of omission
and commission as the average man is
prone to fall into, the average woman,
1bsen to the contrary notwithstanding,
ready to condone-New York Sun.

Patent Leather In Cold Weather.

To wear patent feathers in winter time
and to keep them bright and uncracked
requires care and eternal vigilance. Rub
them when dulled with little milk, and
when they are not in use keep them in a
warm room Always warm slightly be-
fore putting upon the feet. On very cold
days it is a good plan to leave ones patent
feathers at home, because trip into the
atmosphere of zero will almost assuredly
cause them to crack. Stuffing the toes of
patent leather shoes with cotton will keep
them from bending and cracking.-New

VAS WILLING TO HOLD TIE BABY
Mr.Gilbert Obliged n Smiling YounE Woman,
Who at Once Lett the Train.


NoRwALK. Nov lS.-Abraham Gilbert is a
worthy citizen OF the neighhoring village Of
Branchvillc. He is married and the father Of
small family. On Thursday. while returning
in the train from Danbury. he noticed among
his fellow passengers young and rather at
tractve woman. apparently q widow. who held
in her arms q handsomely dressed infant
about five months old
AS the train slowed up for the stop at Bethel
the woman asked Mr.. Gilbert IL he would be
SO kind as to hold her baby while she spoke to
q friend who was to be at tho station. Mr. Gil
bort jumped at the chance. for he is very fond
OF pretty babies. and while the train waited he
handled the youngster on his knee called 1t a
little tootsy -wootsey, and sadly disarranged
Its fine apparel.
The train started and Mr. Gilbert prepared
to surrender his charge. hut tho motEcr did
not appear. Mr.. Gilbert was certain that she
had missed the train by accident. and that
she was ut that minute fretting herself almost
to death about the child. but the older and
more experienced travellers smiled grimly
and az CONCLUDED that Mr. Gilbert was the victim
Brqnchyllle Mr.. Gilbert tried to get the
Of the child. but they asserted that
there was nothing in the rules and
regulations OF the road that compelled them
TO do 50. and moth ng remained for Mr.. Gilbert
but to take the baby home and place 1t among
his own; He did SO. and the little stranger is
IN excellent hands.
the child Is boy. The woman was hand
somely dressed, and wore veil which almost
completely hid her features. No effort has
been made to find her.
