The Old Maid and the Bachelor Girl

In the last decade or so the post of old
maid has been missing in the house,
holds of the land. The sister-in-law,
the maiden aunt, the spinster cousin,
even the godmother and the step-sister,
have fled the household hearth and put
on the livery of bachelordom. Sophie
or Julia, who knew so exactly how to
manage the baby and flavor the soup.
and Aunt Maria, who had such knack
for arranging flowers and mending the
tablecloths, are away in distant cities.
putting that, or some other, knack or
knowledge to practical purpose. Miss
Angy, mothers cousin, you know, who
lived with u.s." is away also, taking
stenographic notes, painting dinner
cards, keeping accounts-doing any,
thing that will bring her in definite pay,
and show the world how well she can
do without certain things believed to be
Indispensable to her nature. Instead of
being a fraction to be summed up in the
household accounts, the old maid is now
Il unit, with maintenance of her own;
but it is not clear whether this evolve
ment. whereby she leaves the cats and
the babies and the tea drinking behind
and energies into the drab colored
bleakness of the business world, Is a
step onward in the march of progress,
or the reverse. Only one thing is cer-
tain. Independence, like the fateful
fruit, once tasted, will not be given up.
Only to those of her sisters who have not
yet eaten she calls: "Have a care! Con,
slider the cost! There is something to
gain by branching out. but infinitely
more to lose. If you don't actually need
to leave the family tree, don't do it,"
Home and the household are right
fully woman's DOVER The bachelor
clerk has nether-the old maid had hers
by proxy. Which is we'll? Yet, girls
whose parents. according to their own
admission, are perfectly able to support
them. keep on learning stenography, or
bookkeeping, or some other machine-like
arts, and start out on the woman with
ering treadmill.
And one other thing about these poor
women who have gone ilao business
they are undertaking each other to such
an extent that the trades into which they
particularly go are even now overstock-
ed, and the rate of compensation
is always falling. Ten years ago good
stenographer could command twenty
five dollars a week; now the best eau
be had for fifteen. The old maids who
stay contentedly at home not only have
the best of it, but are apt also to do the
most good.-Olive +. Gunby in Leslies

To Keep Cut Flowers Fresh

Do you know that you should always
pull all the leaves off the stalks of flow
ers before putting them in water?
mean, of course, all the leaves which
would otherwise be in the water, not
those above it.
And another wrinkle is that with such
flowers as lilac, for instance, or any
other hard-stocked sort or shrub, the
bark should be peeled off as we'll as the
leaves. The flowers live ever so much
longer if these precautions are taken.
A scrap of charcoal in the water is also
a great preservative. One or two drops
of ammonia, or tiny pinch Of salt in the
water is also beneficial

AS A TRAVELLING COMPANION
A New Use Discovered for the Russian
Blouse

The reason of that feminine fancy
known as the Russian blouse was dis
covered by a reporter on trip from
Jersey City to Washington few nights
ago. The train had just begun to move
out of the Jersey City station when a
young woman, rather ON the new" or
der, swung herself aboard. She was
almost breathless from hurrying, and,
unlike the majority of her sex, was sin
gularly unhampered by luggage. A
neatly rolled umbrella and q jacket were
all the travelling gear she carried.
The young woman occupied section
by herself, and it was apparent that she
contemplated retiring, for she request
ed the porter, with every indication of
weariness, to make up her berth with
all possible haste.
AS the making up Of the berth neared
completion, the young woman in the i'm
maculate tailor skirt and Russian blouse
rose and proceeded to the lavatory. Ev-
cry one in the car looked at her, for she
was exceedingly handsome and pos
sessed q trim little figure. Pretty soon
she returned to her section, and the re-
porter marveled more than ever She
was arrayed in a black India silk neg
lige, and she carried her blouse over her
arm. Several observing women ex-
changed wondering glances, for they,
too, had noticed the absence of all lug
gage, and We're puzzled at the transfor-
nation.
This fascinating traveller was the OBJ
ject of general attention hext morning
as the train was rolling into Washing
ton. The young woman sat calmly in
her section, rolling into the smallest and
tightest bundle possible the India silk

winters brides chose to be married in
velvet and furs rather than in the regu-

Fitheau, well known in the American
colony, whose marriage to Count Arthur
de Gabriac took place this week. Her
gown of rich dahlia velvet. with a be-
coming collet of chinchilla, was very
much admired.
The fur dealers have made tremen-
dous effort to revive the popularity of

efforts were not going to be in vain.

was a broad revers of the ermine eX-

Burial of Ed. Schieffeiin.

At Tombstone, on Sunday afternoon, the last rites were performed over the remains of Ed. Schieilelin, the founder of Tombstone who died in Canonyille, Or, May II, and by his last request was to be buried in the city which he founded. The ceremonies took place in Schiefrelin Hall, which was draped in beautiful and appropriate designs, and wns crowded with people from Bsbee and other points, who gathered to do honor to the one they had loved.
 Col Herring of Tucson, who was formerly citizen there, and who knew the deceased well, gave the funeral bd- dress, and spoke touchingly upon the many virtues of the departed. The body was inferred in the granite hills, where he made his first camp, before the discovery of Tombstone, where q grave had been dug from the solid rock. His remains were followed to the grave by vast concourse of peo- pie, who yied in doing honor, to the famous prospector and discoyerer of Tombstone Camps

Hugh Higdon met with an unfor- tunate and painful accident in the Black Warrior Copper Co.'s mine last Thursday evening. Eigdon was de- scending the incline shaft and was within a few feet of the station where he expected to stop when the engineer started to hoist, without signal having been given. AS the skip almost com pletely fills the shaft, there was no escape for Higdon. The skip struck his left leg, badly lacerating the muscles of the fore part of the lower limb. He also sustained several con tusions on the head and body, none of them of a serious character, however. Dr. w.
