The ladies should bear in
mind that next year will be the
last leap year of this century and
take Time or some other fellow by
the forelock, for the next will not
occur until 1904. The year 1900
will not be a leap year. This un-
usual occurrence is due to the fact
that the addition of one day to
each fourth year more than makes
up the presumed deficiency in the
