Shall a Woman Tell Her Age?

One burden falls to the lot of the
single woman which is more keenly
felt in society than elsewhere. Triv-
ial and foolish as it may seem, few
are aware of it's extent and reality,
and even the most sensible and sue
cessful women are sometimes its vic
tins. Public sentiment, especially
in cities and unprovincial towns, has
outgrown to a considerable extent
the ungallant habit of considering a
woman responsible for her age. But
there still exist plenty of men and
women who have a ready word of
scorn or reproach for the unmarried
single woman whose youth has
passed.
On account of this sentiment many
women are sensitive, and not with
out reason, to inquiries about age.
They refrain from illusions which
might lead to the discovery of a Sc
cret only because the curious and
rude make such age a matter of ridi-
cule. The only remedy for this dis.
comfort is in the cultivation of a diff
ferent public sentiment. -Helen NJ.

How a Fat Man Was Constituted the Un-
willing Agent of Avenging Providence.
There are some philosophers who
cling to the belief that there is no flu
ture of rewards and punishments,
but that we get our just dues as we
go along. Once in awhile there
seems to be some slight justification
for this doctrine. For instance, it
happened that a day or two ago a
lady coming up OF the Sixth avenue
elevated monopolized two seats. l
say it happened-for a lady rarely
does such a thing. The cars were
crowded, every seat being occupied,
including the two occupied by this
particular sample of the gentler SEX.
Several gentlemen came in, took a
longing look at the lady and at the
small, fragile parcel at her side and
politely seized the most convenient
strap. Whatever. their thoughts,
they did not express them by word
Of mouth. Perhaps they were OF
that school of philosophers of whom
1 have just spoken. If they were
they were waiting for the retribu-
tive justice to come along, and were
possibly wondering what form it
would take. They didn't have to
wait very long, for a sudden lurch
of the car at tibet urn into Fifty-third
street sent a man weighing some 200
pounds plump into the seat by the
side of the astonished monopolist.
That individual gave one plaintive
scream and all was over. The
thoroughly. frightened gentleman
jumped to his feet as soon as pos
sible-so quickly indeed that he
never could have been said to have
been down but for the havoc he had
%innocently wrought. For there,
smashed as fiat as the traditional
founder, was-well, whatever it was
or had been.
Did the unfortunate lady turn and
rend him with her tongue2 Did she
tell him what she thought of him
Not at all. She simply gathered the
miserable wreck unto her bosom and
wept.
No one saw what the wreck was
and consequently could arrive at no
idea of its awful awfulness.
TO tell the truth, the public SYM
pathy was with the miserable wretch
thus made the blind instrument in
the hands of Providence to admins,
ter punishment to the guilty as the
guilty go along. He was the most
unhappy looking mortal | ever saw
What 1 wish to know is, When and
how does he get his reward9-New

The Fascination of Fire.

Whether in the embers or on a
hearth before which one sits in med,
itative mood, or the companionable
glowing end of a fragrant Havana
on a dark night, or else a molten fur
mace, a comet, the SUI itself, or a
burning building, there is a human
instinct that is somehow affected by
fire as the gnat is drawn to the flame.
Not only is this 30 as to fire itself,
but it sometimes seems to extend to
the evidences that agency leaves be-
hind to mark its destruction.
This was illustrated at The Ledger
building. Not only did thousands
from every quarter of the town go
to Sixth and Chestnut streets to view
the scene of fire, but hundreds stood
around for hours doing nothing but
looking at the wet and grimy walls
and broken windows, People stood
and looked and looked, and then
went away, only to come back and
look again. Philadelphia Times.

Of the rosin weed is attributed to the
fact that both the upper and lower

But, oh! canst thou keep a wife2"
If the last new bonnet suits thee.
Canst thou wear 1t still the same,
Though a newer pattern tempt thee,
Lately handed down to famel
Will a dress or two content thee
When stern fashion orders more,
And a solitary headdress do
Instead of half a score?

To expect SO strange a thing,

And the hopes to which l cling.
