 Another unmarried man contributes this letter to the willing husband and wife" resolution under discussion
 February 12. My Dear Madame: I am glad an old bachelor wrote you, for 1 and many young felleows are enjoying this discus sion and wish to offer our services as did the autumnally inclined young man. We men don't object in the slightest to escorting any married lady friend to an entertainment, and, to be frank with you, we would rather like it every now and then, for we would not be compelled to hire hacks to carry them to and from the parties. It would be lots cheaper to es cort a married woman than one of the carriage girls, who cannot walk at night. You know this carriage business is get ting to be an awful bore to us, but we can't make any change in the matter until the girls tell us. No man wants to be considered mean and niggardlly so we poor fellows will have to stand it or quit the whirl. l wish some of our girls would take tonics so that their strength would not leave them as soon as they are in- vfted to a reception or german. But if the unwilling husbands will let us carry their wives to parties, we stand ready to offer our services believing we can do so without becoming bankrupts for ve- hicles and flowers. Sincerely,

"Bessemer. Feb. 10. 1896

My Dear Madame: It is useless to try to make wives and husbands over again. If they are willing or unwilling they are going so to stay, no matter what you and the judge may say. 1 have been an unwilling, wife ever since I was mar ried. 1 have had too much to do to find time for the diversions of social life. I don't want to go out in the evenings, even if my husband does and if don't I fail to see why I should> be inconven- fenced just to please htm. And if I don't go to parties would like to know what pleasure it would be for him to go with out me. Men are queer things, there is no denying this fact, and I send you a piece of poetry found the other day in a newspaper that just expresses my sen- timents about husbands:
 The Ideal Husband Non Est.
 There are husbands who are pretty.
 There are husbands who are witty, There are husbands who in public
 smiling as the morn:
 There are husbands who are healthy. But the real angelic husband--weli. he's
 never yet been born.
 Some for strength of love are noted
 Who are really so devoted,
 That whene'er their wives are absent they And while now and then. you'll find one Who's really good and kind one, Yet the real angelic husband-oh, he's never So the woman who is mated
 To a man who may be rated
 As pretty fair" should cherish him forever For the real angelic creature, Perfect, quiet-in every feature,
 He has never been discovered-and he won't
 be, so theyOay.
 T. B. Aldrich.
 And what's the use of worrying? am not going to begin to waste time in the frivolities of life to please any man. l have my children my home, my, chick ems and cats, that's enough for me. Yours truly, -" An unwilling husband speaks his mind thusly:
 Birmingham, Feb. 11.-My Dear Mad am: It strikes me that this discussion is very unnecessary. I am an unwilling husband, if that means I do not care to be bored with receptions. etc., and can't for the life of me understand why a mar ried woman wants to be constantly on the go. Now. take my wife; she Is very comfortably situated. with nice home. plenty to eat and wear. eight children to sew for and look after, besides COW, my horse, dogs and hogs. Now. what more could any woman want? l am gone all day have a good business and find ethat my time passes pleasantly enough twixt rise and set of sun, and when night comes I am tired and want to go to sleep certainly by 8 o'clock. l married to have a good wife attend to my house and don't mean to begin this new style at my time of life of course, we don't receive any invitations now. because I put my foot down early on the subject and people stopped asking us But cannot see why married folks wish to go to entertain ments.

GREETED ny THE GENOEsE.
Emperor md Empress Of Germany
Welcomed to the Italian City.

GENOA, March A--Emperor William and
Empress Augusta arrived here this evening
on their way to Naples. Great political in
terest attaches to this visit to Italy of the
German Emperor. as it has been generally
expected that when he met King Humbert
the Emperor Francis Joseph Of Austria
would be the guest of the King OF Italy at
the same time. 1t is assumed in all public
discussion of the visit that the subject Of
the conference between the three sovereigns
or in the absence OF the Austrian Emperor,
between the two, will be the relations be-
tween the three countries Of the dreibund.
The results Of the recent visit Of Count
Goluchowski, the Austro-Hungarian Pre-
mier, to Berlin, were all in favor OF the
maintenance of the dreibund. Work begun
there, 1t is expected. will be completed DUR
ing Emperor Williams stay. though 1t Is
freely surmised that the German Emperor
desires some notifications In the triple bond
which will leave him freer to place Germany
in accord with Russia in the far East.
The illustrious pair were received here
with every manifestation OF courtesy and
hospitality. The streets were thronged with
great crowds of the people. all eager to
catch glimpse Of the German royalties and
all cheering to give them welcome. The
town Is gay with bunting. hass flying on

The two peas patriotism and pluck
Then, after reference to the charitable dis
position of the race throughout the world.
Mr.. Bayard said: Your kindred beyond the

in tone to suit everybody, for in the system
