The Delusion About Ideals.


The ideal woman of every man is
the "womanly woman" The ideal
man of every woman is the ''manly
man." And the expression, "a wom-
anly woman" means pretty much the
same to every man who uses it just as
the "manly man" of one woman ex-
presses a certain combination of
qualities well known to every other
woman. The mans "womanlv wom-
an is gentle, amiable, quiet and DOM
estic. She loves to set upon a low
chair and hem things, with the lamp
light fal ing over her hair. It is un-
necessary to say that although in the
Dry this is the sort of woman a man
prefers, in practice he may choose one
entirely her opposite. She does not
exist in large quantities, which is
lucky, as she might prove dreadfully
insipid if she did.
The woman's "manly man" means
a man strong, brave and daring. He
must perform easily bold deads which
she dare not attempt. She likes that
in drama. In actual life she may
lind that q man neither daring nor
bod has satisfactory and endearlng
qualities which make him more after
her heart than the ideal of her dreams
could ever be. We are not all alike,
thank heaven, but various. And the
spark of originality which is implant:
ed IN each OF US is the thing to cherish
and develop and not distort our
selves into ideal forms.

The curfew tolls the knell of parting

O o'clock in several towns in this prov
ince. saws the Toronto Mail. 1t no
longer means lights out" but Is simply
\ summons to little boys and girls
to take themselves Of the street to the
shelter of the domestic roof. where
their sphere of danger, Of bad company
and of mischief will be narrowed, Whlle
further scope will be given to their ca
oacity for rest. The curfew bell might
be looked upon as a piece of socialistlc
presumption on the part of the mum
cipality. as an encroachment on the
inalienable private right Of the head OF
the family to order the affairs OF his
own household. But the moral sense
of the town will wink at this elDoWlng
aside of the parent by the munlclpanty
The parent who is jealous OF MS pre-
%rogatiye as a ruler Of his children lalAs
to exercise that prerogative ana dele-
gates it to the town when he allows
them to be a public nuisance, n sucn
aworry to the public. The police should
not be called upon to render service
as nurse to truant officers. They should
be left free to keep adults out OF mis-
chief. There is nc more vexaticus'
tantalizing duty than that of keeping
track of a company Of mischievous
boys. They are likely to ABSORB tne
attention Of any policeman who has
item on his beat. Consequently older
and worse offenders are given a freer
hand. Nor is there anything that de-
moralizes Il policeman more than that
kind Of service. He is apt to lose his
interest in larger game and sink into
a spy on the conduct of urchins, who
will then make it a point to fill up his
time with larks and cscapada IS. The
curfew tends to take this strain of

The Seaside institute, as it is called,
is open free of expense to all the girls
in the factory. There is a night school,
with class instruction in college branch
es, choral work, the domestic arts, busi-
ness methods and physical develop
ment. The auditorium has a seating
capacity of 500, and from time to time
lectures, concerts and special entertain

with the circulating library there is a
reading room abundantly supplied
with current literature. There are six
marble baths. and a well kept restau-
rant, where foods are served at actual

a very nice class of labor. Girls who
might otherwise take up clerical work
learn to stitch corsets. weave coraline,
make garters, coraline dress stays,
etc.

Some Of the Pleasant "oOoS
Which Burn So Easily.
The light wood that is sold in this
market is the pitch pine Of South Caro-
lima, only the heart being used. 1t is
sold for open fires. Some people use 1t
alone to make a quick blaze in q crate,
but it Is more often used to re-enforce
q wod fire, or as a sort of a CONDENSED
kindlins wood. One firm dealing In
wood in this city sells about y a r
rels of light wood a year. virginia
pine knots are lengths of Virginia pine
containing a knot and cut In form con-
venient for burning in open fires. This
wood is burned by itself. 1t gives out
a slight pleasing rcsinous odor.
The most valuable Of all the woods
for open fires is hickory. Wood buy
ers and spectators in timber look out
for hickory wherever they 60, and buy
even a sir lie tree if they can wherever
they find it. The hickory burned in
New York CRATES comes mainly o
the C:ats1il!s and from the region up
along both sides Of the Hudson and
from other parts Of this state and
from Eastern Pennsylvania.
What is called New Bedford drift
wocd is the inch spruce sheathing that
is placed over the planking of whaling
vessels, and upon which the copper
sheathing is nailed. When a whaler
comes home after two or three years
cruise, her copper and the spruce
shea:hing are stripped off to be renew
ed. The sheathing is bought and
brought here and broken up into suita-
bic lengths and sold to burn in open
fires. 1t is covered with salt and YER
digris and sometimes little fragments
Of copper cling to it. In the city use
of this driftwood a stick or two is add.
ed to an open fire occasionally, as the
fancy may dictate, to lend variety to
the fire and add to its charm. 1t burns
with a blue fame that reminds one
who has seen it of the fame that is
made by real driftwood or wreckage
dragged from the sand and burned in
the great open fireplace of a house by
the sea. The New York dealers that
buy the New Bedford driftwood buy,
whenever they can, copper-fastened
wrecks and break them up for use in
the same that the driftwood
is used.-New York Sun.

When l struck the water l Immediately

l would never again arise. A sound
roared through my head; it seemed to
ME it would burst. 1 opened my
mouth and attempted to breathe,

closed my mouth. I was again com.
PEELED to open it. More water enter

100 feet from where / had jumped in.
Near by was a steamboat on which
stood a man with a long pole with an
iron hook on the end. 1t took only
a second to sec those things,

PURE WATER.
Cholera VIII Not Become Epdemc
When the Water Is Pure.

Cholera VIII NOT become
When the Water Is Pure.
It might almost be laid down as a
rule that if the water supply Of a
community is good, cholera cannot
become epidemic, at least in a tenn
perate climate. It is to the great
care exercised in obtaining purity in
it's aqueduct water that the salubri-
business OF London is probably due.
There were in that city last year
2,437 deaths from diarrhoea while in
Paris, the quality of whose water is
notorious, there were-in spite of the
fact that the population numbered
but one-half that of London-3,521
deaths from this disorder. In fact,
the cholera, in an infeebled form has
been more or less prevalent on the
outskirts OF Paris for some years,
and will probably continue there I'M
til the population receives a purer
supply of water. At Havre where the
disease has made recent ravages,
typhoid fever is almost always pre-
valent, and both drainage and water
supply are seriously detective. With
in the last twenty-five years cholera
has repeatedly been introduced into
England, but it has never spread, and
this may reasonably be attributed to
the activity in applying sanitary
science in the supply of clean and the
removal OF foul water, for which that
country has obtained an honorable
distinction. Her ports are open to
the world; there is no quarantine ex-
cept in the case of those actually dis
eased, and such of her inhabitants as
obey ordinary hyg;enic laws arr in
as little danger from cholera as from
being struck by lightning.-N. Y. Eve.
