Oh, Admirable WOman!

To the Editor:
Edgar E." and "A WILDE Woman" q
short time ago returned to your columns with the
much debated question OF the nature OF woman,
and II she n worse than man. In view OF the
moral and physical difference that exists be-
tween man and woman. logical comparisons
can be made between them. l consider woman
physically and morally the most perfect thing OF
the whole creation. fain would forget the
extremes Of evil into which she has often fallen,
since for the most part the fault is with the
man himself. l see In her only the being that
dignines and ennobles the home, making It agree
able by her affection and the majesty OF her
virtues Any man Of nne feeling cannot fail to
bs q passionate admirer of that creature, whose
physical weakness renders the home happy and
cheerful. She represents charity In all It's vari-
Gus phases, and from her very birth shows
the gentleness OF her instincta as child tondlins
and oaressing her doll, and as a woman fondy
pointing out to her children the beautiful path OF
virtue. A SPANIARD.

eye upon its mouse-colored coat until

Judge said the cigar dealer would have

render himself homeless in pursuit OF the
feline, for lawyers are ruthless and
courts are slow.

Then some day when puss IL plump and

HE TOLD THE TRUTH AT LAST.
Had Not Nickel to Pay His Fare, but a
 Conductor Trusted Him.


 Dead broke'' is a relative term. Some men are dead broke" on $lO. Some don't call it dead broke" until they reach nickel. It's pretty dead broke" when you haven't even the one nickel for car fare, want to get from Twenty-third to Fulton street, are in q hurry, couIdn't walk for fortune and know there's money waiting for you at the other end if you can get there.
 This was the case with young man one day last week, and this is how he got there. Boarding Broadway car at Twenty third street among crowd of others, he walked-forward and took his stand beside the gripman. It was some time before the conductor reached him, when he fumbled for change, as though he knew he had it in vest and trousers pockets, finally remarking that since he couldn't find it he supposed he'd "have to get of. " The conductor saw it in that light, too, and politely made way for the young man, who by this time had reached Thirteenth street Walking down few blocks, he board ! ed the third car following, and this time ! the conductor called for his fare. Again he affected the searching process, and again the conductor waited patiently, while the car spun along until at last the young man anxiously declared that he must have lost his pocketbook. The conductor dinged the bell, deciding that the best thing to be done was to step of and look for it.
 l Eighth street was now reached, and again at Fifth street a fresh car was | boarded. Another search after change was gone through and another kindly suggestion from a conductor looked for, but this one said: "Ain't got no money; How far arc you going? Fulton? Oh, no; you'd better get off And he got off after three elaborate bits of acting just 20 blocks below his original point.
 'I guess I'll try the truth now," he thought to himself, and this time he stood out on the back platform md didn't make q first dive into his pock cts He had got sick of it, and it wasn't paying either.
 Look here, conductor" he said "I'm dead broke. Haven't a nickel Will have lots when get to Fulton street. Will you give me your number and trust me to ride down?"
 "Ride you do," said the conductor and that conductor hasn't regretted it He's got more than tho fare since, ant the young man who began on the lie has learned first rate lesson on tho olC fashioned policy of honesty. New Yozl | Herald
