regulate the size of the paper collar

EoR oIRLs TO REMEMBER.
Now Woman May Not Always Find Her
Ideal Husband.

Now Woman May Not Always find nor
Ideal Husband.
From the masculine point of view one
would beg young ladies to consider the
following axioms:
/. A girl can not expect man to be
made on purpose for her.
. A girl that cherishes an ideal man
that is half a woman courts certain un-
happiness.
3 Every feminine gift has its mascu-
line counterpart; and they are never
the same. Therefore a girl should
look for unlikeness not likeness.
4. The friendship OF chums" can
never be arrived at by the man trying
TO become woman. or by a woman
trying 10 become man.
The happiest marriages are those
which develop and intensity the mental
distinctions due TO sex-not efface
them.
6. In love and in marriage it is the
ideal which awakens and which pre-
serves affection.
:. Every girl should. therefore. find
out what is the ideal wife as commonly
accepted By men of worth, and should
aim al that ideal.
S Awife's duties depend largely on
the income. II girl marries on a
small income. she must not mind
having 70 DO some of the household
work.
In essentials, though the new
woman" may be more literary and
more artistic than her mother, she can
certainly do no better for the good of
herself and the general happiness of
the world than follow in the footsteps
OF the old, or former, woman.
These excellent maxims are suggest
ed as an aid to Young ladies in the for
nation of an ideal husband. and in the
endeavor 10 live up to that semi divine

Fire During a PLAY.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 2l.--A dispatch
from Ekatorinoslav, capital of the gov
eminent of thatepame in South Russia,
gives the details of fire that occurred
iii a theater, causing large loss of life.
The fire was discovered while a per-
Torrance was going on. The specta-
tors became panie-stricken and made
wild rush for the exits. Many of
them were knocked down, trampled un-
der foot and rendered unconscious.
After the ruins had cooled off sufli-
ciently search was commenced for
the dead. Forty-nine bodies have al
ready been taken out. A number of
persons who were known to have been
in the theater are still missing, and
there is scarcely any doubt that their
bodies will be found later in the ruins.
