1t is the fashion just now, says che
New York Tribune, to abuse the news
papers for the publicity given 10 every
function and the so-called personal com.
ments made on social happenings, While
reporters are spoken of as "a race with
out consideration and without conscience"
If the inner history of what is called
social news were written, however, these
much-maligned men and women would
have their revenge; for people who make
the greatest ado about having their
privacy" as they call it, invaded are
often those who themselves have fur
nished details, and in many cases have
even written the articles ascribed TO reg
ular news vendors. A prominent society
woman in New York who talked loudly
and often of the "impertinence" of the
reporters, had on the taps large and
elaborate dinner dance; in the morning as

reporter arrived in the afternoon Mrs. s.
happened to be engaged with a visitor
and the former, being novice in her pro-
fession, sent her official card in. saying
at the same time to the servant that she
was expected. The message and the tell
tale card were delivered, the visitor prob
ably looking as she felt, somewhat as
tonished. Whereupon Mrs. s., who was "A

why Do We Waltz
Why do we wait till ears are deaf
Before we speak our kindly word
And only utter loving praise
When not a whisper can be heard!
Why do we wait till hands are laid
Close-folded pulseless, ere we place
Within them roses sweet and rare,
And lilies in their flawless grace?
Why do we wait till eyes are sealed
To light and love in deaths deep trance
Dear, wistful eyes-before we bend
Above them with impassioned glance?
Why do we wait till hearts are still
To tell them all the love in ours,
And give them such late need of praise
And lay above them fragrant flowers
How oft we, careless, wait till life's
Sweet opportunities are past,
And break our "alabaster box
OF ointment at the very last!
OH let us heed the living friend
Who walks with us life'sr common ways
Watching our eyes for look of love,
And hungering for q word OF praise!

RICH BUT NOT HAPPY.
Mrh Midas Thought she Had EyerythinE

She Wanted. l
Kansas City Journal: YES I have

looking at her reflection in the mirror.
Very becoming were the costly furs,
the exquisite hat, and the French gown,
and as one footman carried her wraps
to her victoria and another stood wait
Ing to receive her commands, she felt
that she had, on the whole, done we'll
for herself, and that her lines were
laid in pleasant places, indeed. ct
would have been absolute madness to
have married Tom," she soliloquized,
as the man took his place by the
coachman and her perfectly appointed
equipage, on its rubber tires, sped up
the avenue What struggle it would
have been! Fancy living in tiny fat
with one maid and skimping and saw
ing and going without decent clothes!
We should both have been wretched
in year! Mr.. Midas is very kind,
and really like him, only-it is
little dull. do not enjoy anything
much nowadays, one dinner lis like an
other one, and one ball is like every
other one, and I get tired to death
driving in the park or making visits.
What fun it used to be in the, old days
when Tom had a holiday and we used
to go off on a spree! Nothing ex-
pensive. Sometimes it wouIH be
ferryboat, sometimes a hanson, or a
ride into the country on our bicycles,
but 1t was delicious. l wish could
do things now like that! Only Mr..
Midas couldn't ride wheel, and 1
shouldn't wish him to, poor thing, and
it would be ridiculous for us, of course,
to go off on such expeditions"
Just then her carriage entered the
park. and side by side with the more
pretentious vehicle wheeled "a bicycle
built for two,'" guided by manIy-look-
ing young fellow with pretty girl in
front. Their traps showed they were
bound for a long expedition, and both
looked as pleased as possible. Mrs. Mi
das touched her bell.
'sYou can go home, Thomas,'> she
said to the footman, who sprang from
his seat at his mistress signal *''Tell
James have changed my mind will
not drive in the park to-day" And
when she reached her palatiar man

BUSINESS WOMEN.
They Know the Trials of the Busy
Man.

They Know the Trials of the Busy
It has frequently been said that wo-
men in business employments do not
make as desirable wives as their sis
ters who have lived only domestic
wholly different view of the case, says
the Anaconda Standard. He holds
that the effect of the woman in busi-
ness is not so much to the advantage
of the woman as to the business man.
Such a woman has more respect for
him, more regard, more sympathy. She
is altogether less likely voluntarily to
impose upon him or involuntarily to
harass and worry him. She has been
there; she knows how it is herself,
and this personal experience and
knowledge make her more lenient and
considerate. Every woman wage-earn-
er worthy of the name learns first,
last and all the time that success is
attained by close attention and single
mindedness. The woman who realizes
this must also realize that the same
rule holds good of the business man. In
a present capacity of daughter and sis
ter, or in future capacity as wife, she
is certain to show such Keen considera-
tion for the business members of the
household as is undreamed of in the
philosophy of the other kind of women,
There is no danger Of her husband
being besought to just stop on his way

Many Distinguished People Have Been

Wilkie Collins left a missive among
his papers, says a writer in Chambers
Journal, directing that when he died
thorough examination of his body was
to be made by a skilled surgeon. Lady
Burton, wife OF Capt. Sir Richard Bur-
ton, ordered that her body should he
pierced with needle in the region OF
the heart. Mr.. Edmund Yates, of the
World; Miss Ada Cavendish, Miss Har-
riet Martineau, the authoress, and
Hans Andersen, the writer of so many
fairy tales, may be mentioned as men
and women who have left instructions
that they should not be inferred until
everything possible had been done
to make sure that they were lifeless.
In some cases it was the severance of
vein, in others even decapitation that
was resolved upon. Others, with a
similar end in view, have adopted diff
ferent means. The signalling inyen-
ton Of Edgar Allan Poe, who wrote
this subject up in his characteristical-,
ly weird fashion, is familiar to all read
ers. Then, there is the apparatus Of a
Russian inventor, which consists of
mechanism placed in the throat of the
corpse. If consciousness returned and
an effort were made to breathe. the
effort set in motion, certain wires which
resulted in bell ringing in the Gem

that, instead OF a throat apparatus.

the corpse. Last year Sir Henry Lit
tlejohn told his students at Edinburgh

springs so constructed that on the

fin and thus save the victim. This
may have a reference ITO the Russian
invention, seeing gethat the idea is the
same, though there is slight difrer-
ence in detail s .#3

Late Suppers,

In the good old times our ancestors
we're accustomed to dine at II, to sup
between and 6, and to go to bed at 10.
It is evident, therefore, that any argu-
ment in favor of supper founded upon
the healthy condition of our ancestors
is fallacious. BY supper in modern
times we understand late meal just
before bedtime, but as sleep is not ia
vorable to every stage of digestion, it
is very questionable whether retiring
to rest with full stomach can under
any circumstances be salutary. Dur
ing the first part of the process of di-
gestion a person so situated may per-
haps sleep quietly, unless, indeed, the
morbid distention of the stomach
should impede respiration and. occasion

gun is then planed down and brought
to it's proper dimensions, and the gun
is ready for the rifling and the placing
of the breech mechanism. The vari-
GUS hoops are hooked together by
shoulders to hold them more securely
in place, and to prevent distortion from
the shock of discharge. The whole
process is most tedious and requires a
great deal of time and skill. Six
months is allowed for the smallest

require three years.
