BAB TELLS WHY
 MEN DON'T MARRY.

panionshp of woman, and so he does the best thing he can, which is to pro- pose marriage to the woman he loves and remain engaged to her until death breaks or unites the bond He says, does this unfortunate wretch, that mar riage is too expensive. He doesn't see any possibility of making a home in a boarding house. and really that Is quite as difficult to do as to make home on the top of Cleopatras needle.
 People have been happy in boarding houses, but they can't make homes there. Homes are not made for the multitude as are ready made skirts, all after one pattern, and that's the reason cooperative housekeeping can never be success. But the bachelor apartment is the enemy of marriage. An ideal bachelor apartment has, in the first place, enormously big. rooms. Then. in the second place, the bachelor seems to be able to get servants who keep every thing in order, although in his drawing room or library or whatever he may call it. there are plenty of books, plenty of pictures and plenty of all the de- lightful things that give an air of lux ury. But the air of order is present too. The dining room shows a big
 
 which there is a quantity of beautiful glass, for the bachelor housekeeper is great on fine glass. On small table stands tiny silver service, the size suited for one. And that is used for the masters coffee every morning.
 Anybody would know a mans room because of the bigness of the towels and the size of the washbowls. It is one of the funniest things in the world and yet it happens every day, to go into shop and have somebody say 10 you when you ask for towels, Gen. tlemen's or ladies'?" It makes you feel like demanding of the overcivil clerk why a lady. so called, is expected to dry her face on towel the size of dinner napkin while a man should be given something very nearly as big as sheet and which is an absolute comfort to use. When a bachelor girl has an apartment, she thinks first of all the pretty things, of the artistic corners and of the fine effects, whereas mans first thoughts are given to his bathroom,

his jug and bowl, the kitchen belongings and all the dining room appointments.
 Men are undoubtedly orderly erea- lures. If you doubt this, investigate. Every woman is very apt to think mean every married woman-that the especial man attached to her can keep his belongings in one bureau drawer or else have them showed off in corner of the wardrobe, while everything else in the way of closets and bureaus must be dedicated to her. Some day, if she will take the trouble to look, she will see that while her top drawer is a wonderful muddle of ribbons and laces hairpins and jewelry, of handkerchiefs and gloves, of feathers and fuss, and that all the under ones catch, because they are packed so tight, the single one given over to her mankind is as neat as possible and ought to be lesson to her. The shirts are laid out as if for an Irish wake, the stockings are in pile in one corner, the handkerchiefs in another, while the scarfs are smoothly spread out along the side of the shirts. Even in married life a man wants to have a little something that is entirely his own, and the wise woman Is the one who puts whole chest of drawers at his disposal and lets him know that feminine frivols are not going to inter fere with masculine belongings.
 It was at recent wedding that a man asked me, What do women marry for?"
 I thought a little bit, and then I said, Experience"
 Then he asked me. What do you think men marry for?" There were so many answers to this question that I could not boil them down to an cpl gram. Oftenest men marry for love- sometimes for money, sometimes be- cause they think it is the proper thing to do, but oftenest of all because they are lonely.

FANCY COMBS FOR YOUNG
 AND OLD

The new fancy combs have teeth that are coarser than those of last season. The ornamentation of these combs is quite simple. The plainer ones, when ornamented With narrow bands of silver or gold, have only simple designs cut into these bands. Except on those pieces to be worn above the knot there is no filigree work. Jewels, when used, are sunk in the band, not raised above, as for the last few seasons. Amethysts, Fit is said will be the popular stones, and only few diamonds are shown, to be worn in very black hair Ame- thysts come in settings of silver and gold, in polished and French gray finish and in polished and rose finished silver gilt
 k The new side combs come in sets of athree and four. The most stylish are shinged together. In sets of four one comb goes above the knot, one below the knot and one on either side. In sets of three, as a rule. the middle comb is to be used above the knot, and is the least
 bit higher and more ornate than the other two. Where the four are hinged together the tendency seems to be to have them all alike, differing only in length and curve. One favorite design for these combs is the zigzag, with a narrow beaded border of gold. All four combs are alike and hinged together. The effect when worn with hair coiled just above the middle of the head is very pretty and generally becoming
 Gilt, silver and shell hairpins will not be worn. Indeed the tendency seems to be to hide those necessary articles, hair pins. a 3.Ss .58tf$'

SOME MIXED MARRIAGES
 IN EUROPE.

Apropos of recent discussions in re- gard to misalliances, itsis interesting to know that 50 years ago the marriage of Mary Ann Jarvis, daughter of Lord St. Vincent, and one of the reigning beauties of London, to MT. Dyce Som- bre, the millionaire son of a Scotch sol- dier of fortune and of an Indian prin- cess, excited storm of indignation in English society. The London Times de, voted lengthy leader to scathing de- nunciation of such unnatural and un- holy matrimonial alliances"
 There are several members of the Brit ish and continental aristocracy who have dusky connections. Thus the wid- ow of the late Earl of Stamford is a coal black Hottentot. The present Lord Gardiner is the son of Hindoo moth CT and is himself married to a woman of the same race. while the only son of the fifth Earl of Milltown is likewise mar ried to an Indian woman at Bombay.
 Recently the match between Prince Victor Dhuleep Singh and Lady Anne Coventry, youngest daughter of the Earl and Countess of Coventry, was made subject of general congratula- tion. Prince Victor is, save for slight German strain. an oriental plebeian.
 Count Henry Coudenhovc. the head of one of the grandest houses of the Austrian aristocracy and chamber lain of the emperor, married while Aus trian envoy to the court of the mikado Japanese maiden, one o Mitsu San. The German Baroness von Radhen, who is related to many of the leading houses of the old Prussian aristocracy, creat- ed an immense sensation some years ago by marrying M. Aoki, who until last month was the Japanese minister plenipotentiary to the court of Berlin, while much of the wealth of the French ducal house of De Ia Rochefoucauld and of the Italian historic and princely family of Borghese comes to them through the late Countess Frederic de la Rochefoucauld, a Eurasian, or half caste, the daughter of an Indian prin- cess and of Q French adventurer Per ron.

The great charm of a quiet outing is that you can get off by yourself and think over some of the questions that once in a while do trouble you. With the blue sky above you, the green trees about you and the noise of the city not so many miles from you, so many things look different.
 During the summer there have been weddings and weddings and weddings. But notwithstanding the great num- Der of marriages the society mother is complaining that men do not marry. Why? Honestly. I suppose men and women are no better or worse than they used to be. There are quite as many in number. and they are, in a way. just as willing to enter into the holy bonds of matrimony. But man has learned to be comfortable without woman. and occasionally, more than occasionally too often, he is so admirably arranged that he prefers to admire women from a distance and to live in his own para dise-a paradise without an Eve and even minus d servant.
 This conviction has come to me from having been the guest at innumerable bachelor dinners given by proud hosts ec ehSh ooAieH liitlluS dIlQ III llleii DN II establishments. What man a few years ago thought of keeping up place for himself-that Is, comfortable place But now the bachelor can without any trouble get himself home, can keep house well, have really all the pleas ures and none of the worries of matri- mony. Of course, there is a type of man that flies around from one boarding house to another or from one hotel to another, but he is the man who has never gotten his natural instinct, which is to look for a companion to make home. He is the man who has a hall room In a boarding house or one not much more comfortable in Q hotel, and after knocking around for awhile he meets a woman who is more or less pleasant, who has the art of making him feel contented, and then he devotes his time to her. Of course lacking the ability to make a home, he also lacks the money to do it, and marriage is im- possible. But he longs for the com

These are the only women worth marrying. The others are of little value and would never be missed. BAB.

THE ZENITH OF WOMAN'S
 BEAUTY

This question is discussed in an Eng fish journal by a writer who maintains that 'the fullness of beauty does not reach its zenith under the age of 35 or 4O." This claim is disputed by another writer, who cites the opinion of women themselves as shown by the undoubted fact that "any woman who craves ad- miration on the score of her personal appearance would be vastly more pleased were her age to be guessed us being 50 rather than 40'' N
 This is a very wide and delicate ques- tion. Much depends upon the race and not little upon the woman. In some southern lands women are either wrin , kled and shriveled or fat and shapeless grandmothers before they reach the age mentioned. In England and in this country it often happens that the full ness of beauty in woman "does not reach its zenith under the age of 30 ol. 4O" 4s.
 The question of taste, too, has much to do with a decision, and it is a canon of criticism that in matters of taste there can be no unvarying standard of judgment. There is n beauty of the bud and beauty of the blossom in all it's glory. In the eye of cold fact a wo- man probably reaches the fullness of her beauty at her physical maturity and ripeness, a varying time in different climes and with different women. And, blessed fact, she remains beautiful as long as she looks so in the eyes of those who love her.
 The age of limit is very elastic, de- pending upon health, temperament. he redity, conditions of life and a dozen other things that help to preserve or to impair that beauty which is it's own excuse for being--and for being seen.

sips. But, after all, was it not summed up by that clever Frenchman who, after telling women of their mistakes, said: "The woman who loves us is a bore. The woman we love is an an- gel" It is true that the day has gone by when men sacrificed everything for women. Countries need to be very young or very old when that sort of thing happens Life is made too lux urious for the bachelor for him to sac rifice his social position, his business prospects or any personal ambition for the sake of woman. But, thinking it all over out here in the sunshine, out here where look at the sunshine from under a great tree that has heard many Q lovers vow, the old question comes back to me, What do women marry for?"
 Some women marry because they want home of their own, and they can get it in no other way.
 Some women marry because they haven't the moral courage to remain single.
 Some women marry because they want little more money in their

confidential, and he wants something of his own in which to confide. He is inclined toward faith, and he wants something feminine in which to be- lieve And then, too, very often he loves this pretty feminine thing with all his heart and soul. And very often she doesn't understand the meaning of the word love. Love is a very queer thing.
 There are people who think they know what love is when they are only acquainted with affection, which, by the bye is not at all a bad thing to have. But if you are searching for real, absolute, enduring love, study man. He is capable of putting in his heart and shutting up from the eyes of every body an intense love, keeping it there and only bringing it out when it Is re- quired. What he longs for Is to meet the woman who knows how to bring out this love and who, once she possesses it, will appreciate it. However, it may be taken for granted, if two people who have tastes somewhat alike, each agree able to look at, each well dressed. which means pleasantly dressed, are thrown for a sufficiently long time in each oth- CTS society, that love will be the re- suit This will be a successful love if the woman is affectionate and the man is loving.

LATE STYLES
 IN JEWELS

An excellent idea of fashions in jewels can be obtained by peep into a temple of diamonds near the Louvre in Paris. A tiara of diamonds being prepared as a wedding present for the daughter of a titled Parisan shows a mass of scin- tillating brilliants arranged somewhat after the manner of a crown, only the design appears in the center as a small bouquet of lilies of the valley, the grace full leaves consisting of graduated rows of tiny diamonds tapering to almost in visible dewdrops of diamonds at the points of the leaves. On the band of the tiara on either side of the centerpiecc are smaller bououets of the delicate sil- yer leaves set with the exquisite jewels. Many of the revived Louis Quatorze designs are being made in brooches and corsage ornaments. Bangles of increas- ing amplitude show to advantage ru- bies, emeralds sapphlres and diamonds. but the narrow bands set with jewels are the most popular with the ladies, while strings of shining pearls reign in necklaces.

THE COMING OF CHAMINADE
 TO AMERICA.

Mile. Chaminade is coming. The sack cloth and ashes of the next Lerten sea- son in America will be rendered more bearable than usual by the arrival from Paris, among other musical stars who will temper the dullness of the season of repentance, of the great composer. This much is certain, that Chaminade will come to America, if she is still liv- ing and well next Lent, but as to the manner of her arrival there is room for speculation.
 Like her distinguished countrywomen, Bernhardt, Galve and Guilbert, Cha minade is attracted to America solely hy the prospect of adding to her bank ac- count. It was Nordica who electrified Paris with Les Noel dcs Oiseaux,' Calve who sang into popularity "Sur Ia Plage." Mclba who won thunders of ap-
