THE FAST YOUNG MAN.
The Duty of Fathers to Portray Him
in His True Light.

In the Ladies' Home Journal Ed
ward w Box writes of the fast" man
and the duties of fathers to their daugh-
ters in placing him where he belongs
and warning them against him. Mr.
Box believes that if it is said of a, man
that "he has seen the world" in other
words is fast" there is instantly a sin
gular glamour about him in the eyes
of young girls-girls as good and pure
as were ever created. There is scent
Of danger about such a man, and there
are girls for whom danger, even Of this
sort, has singular fascination The
girls know that these men are bad
But so long as they respect me and
treat me as a lady where's the HARM?
says the young woman when she is
called TO account for her company.
'As matter of fact, the exact things
which a man does to earn the reputa-
tiCn Of being fast are neither known
nor dreamed Of by the girls for whom
such reputation has this glamour.
The trouble lies in the fact that our
girls are brought up under a system
which hesitates to call a spade by its
right name. We are afraid Of offending
or of shocking certain fancied scnsibili-
ties, whereas, in reality, we make the
greater mistake Of making diamonds
out Of spades and giving our girls
wrong idea Of actual things
Il is ali very well t. be tender In our
regard for the feelings of our girls.
but there is q limit, q point at which
discretion becomes a crime. And that
point has been reached when girls are
allowed to know and associate with
such men all unconscious Of the dan
ger. When every mother or father.
or person with whom the duty may
rest, classes the fast man where he
belongs, and portrays him in his true
light, it VIII be better for our girls. II
is high time that some Of them should
know that the man who leads anything
but pure life buys. in every instance.

TO himself and al n tremendous cost to
the girl who marries him"

RECENT INVENTIONS.

To cut cheese accurately a Maryland
man has an invention consisting of a
circular table or which the cheese rests
and having teeth around its edge en-
gaging a cog wheel by which il is
turned, graduated scale and Indicator
and a knife for cutting the cheese.
A new link cuffbutton has a rigid
shank on each half of the button, the
other ends having a hollow slotted bali
and & head respectively. To fasten the
links together the head is pushed into
the hollow ball. the head being larger
than the slot, so that il will not slip
out easily.

RBCORD-BRBAKING COURSING.
Best Days Sport Since the Park Mas
Opened.
Little Delight Captured First Money
and the Trophy-Schoolgiri
Second.

The clear weather yesterday made
the coursing at Agricultural Park quite
enjoyable to the enthusiasts who
braved the sharp and cold wind to see
the hares and hounds perform.
The dogs We're among the Samiest
and ieetest in the city and vicinity,
and the hares ran as if mad as the
proverbial March specimens of their
breed. Ed. Canavan was in the sad
die as judge, and T. Farrell operated
the slips, both in their usual and salts
factory manner.
1t was the best days coursing since
the park opened. In addition to the fast
dogs entered, the hares were without
exception the best ever turned loose
in an inclosed field. One race in par
ticular-that between Defender and
Iroquois-was the longest and best ever
seen in a park. The score, p to Il,
beats all previous records. and the
course was certainly worth going a
long way to see.
The win was a very popular one,

winner and runner up, respectively, be-

Red Hair i'm Scotland.

In a sketch Of the estimate mankind
has put upon yellow and red hair a
writer says that among some of the
Highland clans red hair was regarded
with so much aversion as to be consid-
cred a positive defOrmity. An amusing
instance Of this is still kept in memory
\ certain n0bleman paid a visit to an
old Highlander, and was introduced by
him to his family, consisting of six fine,
stalwart sons. The nobleman, however
happened to be aware that there were
seven, and inqeircd after the absent
number. The old man sorrOwfully gave
him to understand that an affective dis
pensation Of providence had rendered
the seventh unfit to be introduced in
company. "Ah, poor fellow" said the
sympathZing visitor, Il see-some
mental infrmity!;" "On the contrary"
replied the father, "he is by far the
cleVerest OF the family-there is nothing
the matter with his mind"
20, then, by all means, let me see
him." said the nobleman, and while the
old man went in quest Of the unpre-
sentable youth, he prepared kind
word for the cripple. whom he expected
to be produced To his astonishment.
however, the father returned. followed
by a fine. tall, handsome young fellow,
by far tie most prepossessing of the
family. Excuse me-" stammered the
nobleman, hut lin fact-I-see moth
ing the matter with him"
Nothing the matter with him.
moUrnfully exclaimed the afflicted par
ent; nothing the matter with him,
Look at his hair
The nob!eInan looked; sure enough,
his hair was red
"Ah, that explains" he readily ex-
claimed 70 the relief of the youth, -the
reason why he is by far the cleverest
of the family"
An explanation OF the origin of this
bitter aversion may be found in some
quarrels between the different clans

To Properly Address the President.

Ex-President Harrison. who details
"A Day With the President at His
Desk in the Ladies Home Journal"
relates some of the amusing solutions
of the perplexing problem as to the
proper way to address the President:
Sometimes he is addressed by letter
writer's as plain Mister sometimes as
His Majesty or His Lordship.' and
very often as His Exceilency.' The
High Government at Washington was
thought to be an appropriate address
by one writing from Austria: and a
letter addressed to the White Office
was rightly assigned 10y the intelligent
mail clerk to the White House The
official title of the head Of the executive
department is President All PROPOSE
tions to add adorning but superduous
titles were rejected in Washngton's
time. The correct letter address is,
therefore. TO the President and the

the memory of the young man, who

The wheel of the deceased, with the
chain broken and the frame clothed in
black and white ribbons, under Grape,
was led by a servant in club uniform.
Then followed the pallbearers, selected
from the club, w. \. Hubert, W. Pier

1t was q strange and most impressive
procession, as it moved slowly along
without music, through the streets and
joined the procession of mourners in
carriages on Fourteenth street. The
deep sincerity of the tribute paid by his
fellow members was significant testi

man, in honor of whose worth and gem
ueness his club comrades turned out.
