A Hundred Years ago.

Women grow more frivolous
every day. Young ladies scorn
housework and learn to embroider,
to play the piano and to firt while
their mothers are engaged in all the
drudgery of the household. They
eschew all useful reading and pre-
fer French novels to English class
les. In selecting husbands they
choose dandies with social graces
rather than men with solid attain
ments. They are full of strange,
whimsical notions peculiar to the
age. Reader, this is a synopsis OF
the opinions of an English maga-
zine writer of 1889, on the women OF
his time. They sound very much
as if they were written by certain
pessimists of to-day. There is nc
new thing under the sun.-Bostor

Civility in PHILADELPHIA.

Pats first experience with John
Chinaman occurred in street car
the other day. He had never laid
eyes OH celestial before, and conse-
quently was not familiar with the
style of dress and hair worn by the
race.
Pat was seated in the car looking
another way when the Chinaman
entered. Glancing around he saw
the strangely-robed figure with
plated hair, in front of him. All
his native politeness welled up in
him. He arose, and. touching John
on the shoulder, said:
Madam, take my seat. Oi niver
yit let lady stand whilst Oh set
down, an, begorra, Oh niver will
The Cbinaman didn't know what
to make Of it, but he took the seat
amid the smiles of those who wit
messed the incident. t.--Phila Press.
