Wants a New AppellatiOn for Man.,
When woman is unmarried she,
is called Miss. When she is married
she is called Mrs. A man, whatever
be his state, is Mr.. Why should,
there not be some special designation
for married men. Thus, Mr. Brown,
after turning from the altar, would
be Master brown. This. however, isl
objected to on the ground that little,
boys are called Master by servants
and teachers and the lntima ionl
would be that q man by marryingl
has entered his second childhood. BY,
using the Latin Dominus, as in thei
Portuguese, and call Mr.. Brown DOM
Brown, the designation would be-
properly made. Another sugGestiOnI
is that before u man marries the syl-i
liable ZAP" be attached to his name
Thus Mr. APP Brown, son Of Brown,
would, on marrying, become Mr.
Brown himself Whether or no thesel
suggestions be adopted it ia plain!
that there is a necessity for somej
such distinctive appelIatlon. New
