Not Complimentary 70 Enslieh Women.
Alphonse Daudet was not exactly
complimentary in his references to Eng
ish women, Of whom he met many in
his recent trip to perfdious Albion.
mot only is the English woman not
handsome in features he says. but
there is nothing seductive in her phys
ical form, and, moreover, she is an ut
ter stranger to elegance and good taste.
The English woman whom you enooun-
ter in Paris, with her hattened down
hair and huge feet, differs in no single
particular from the English lady Of
rank whom you meet in salons, on the
turf and at the play. IT gave me real
thrill Of pleasure on reaching Paris to
behold our pretty. Parisiennes, with
their fascinating toilets. New York

One Effect Of the Trolley.

One Effect Of tho Trolley:
When the cheap and convenient elec-
tric road came upon the scene, suburban
property owners were delighted, as we'll
they might have been. It was predicted
that tho little steel blue streak Of har-
messed lightning would bring up the
price Of lots in the small towns near
CITIES, would develop hitherto inaccessi-
BILE properties and enable crowded city
jewellers to have homes Of their own
with plenty Of trees and grass and free
air and sunlight around them.
The little steel blue streak Of harness-
ed lightning has done all that was ex-
pected Of it and more The benefits it
has conferred on poor people and those
Of moderate means are incompatible.
Twice as many Of these can now have
homes Of their own as could formerly.
The trolley, however, has had one re-
suit that nobody thought Of. It is re-
suit that will have constantly increas-
ing force. The electric road is bringing
down the price and rentals Of city resi-.
dence property. The country is growing
at the expense Of the city. No man will
live in hpddled mp quarters when for
the same money he can rent or own a
whole house to himself and reach his
pity employment in reasonable time.
That hygienio thinning out Of city
populations which philanthropy has
never been able to accomplish is being
achieved silently and with no benevolent
motive at all by modern mechanical sci

In Watermelon Time.

Watermelons and the silly season .usu-
ally come in together, For . reason
(which is easily explained in case Of the
!watermelon, not 50 easily in the other
case, both come in earlier than they
used to. With the opening of railway
communication between north and south
profitable trade Of vast and continual
y increasing proportions has arisen.
Nothing dement's friendly sentiments
like profitable trade and good things to
sat. The watermelon, therefore, has
been in the hands OF Providence no
mean instrument in inciting brotherly
love between north and south. Thou
sands Of freight cars will be required
this summer to ship the Georgia and
Carolina waternelons to New England
and the middle belt. In the dry, hot
days when all nature pants for deliver
anoe, when the leaves wilt and droop
back upon their STEMS. when the brain
sizzles and the heart beats dull and Ian
guild, when not even an extra with q
royal death in it will excite the Least
interest-then is the time to let tho
juicy watermelon do its perfect work.
Have it shut away On ice in the cool and
gentle dark for at least ten hours before
you eat it. To be perfect it must be Of
colossal size. Then assemble your dear
est friends and feast on the nectar Of
the gods. The tender, rosy, juicy sub
stance will intoxicate you with joy and
make you believe that, after all, life is
worth living. Well wrought Frank L.
Stanton Of the Atlanta Constitution
when he composed this poemlet:
Tho Juicy watermelon
Has been dom Of It's BEST.
The folks-they kinder cornered il
Out In the bioomin west.
But still the times como round an round,
Whatever they may say, '
We keep the watermelons,
An we're happy on the way.
