making "old maid a term of reproach.
Many girls have been hurled INTO matri-
mony by the dread of being SO stigma
tized and have repented the step TO
their dying day. Many women car give
more honorable reasons for living out
side the temple of IIymen than their
foolish sisters can for having rushed in
Some have never found their other
selves PrOvidential circumstances may
have prevented the junction of these
selves, and is not life of loneliness
more honorable than loveless mar
riage? Is not single blessedness pre-
ferable to double cuSsedness? There
are many women who laid down their
hopes of welded bliss for the sake of
accomplishing some good. In such

a young man who had long been alb
sent called upon two beautiful young
ladies of his acquaintance. One came
quickly to meet him in the neat yet not
precise attire in which she was perform
ing her household duties. The other,
after a lapse of half an hour, made her
stately entrance in all the primness of
starch and ribbons, with which, on the
announcement of his entrance, she had
hastened to bedeck herself. The young

ones guests women guests, of course
who arrive for an informal cup of the

the center of the cheek; give it the soft
sound of swaying silk draperies or fall

woman you kiss. Only salute relatives
on the lips; older women kiss young
girls on the brow. On the street il is
perfectly proper to kiss woman
through your veil; or very prettily the
kiss is given by lifting the gauze a bit
and pressing little kiss on your COM
panion's chin, just below her lip.-From
