1.-The prettiest girls? I shouldn't want
to say, but some of the most beautiful
to me are the peasants of southern
Italy.
THE English, German, French and
Scandinavian women are almost sure
to read and write their own languages
because compulsory education exists
for those nations. So do the Slav girls
generally.
1T is one perpetual procession Of
novelties in emotions and stories COM
ing through the immigration bureau, al
ways some variation of love, tragedy or
drama. What could be more dramatic
than a recent case where a woman,
! fitting on her very high heeled little
shoes and wearing peasant garb, was
claimed by two men as their wife. and
then when the real husband arrived
and refused to receive his wife the wo-
man was sent back to Italy without
even being permitted to speak to the
| husband, who marched off contented as
| soon as he learned his unfaithful spouse
| could not land in this country?
zone strange feature to people are
the babies born under the shadow OF

where reputable women, accompanied

given birth to children while waiting to
be sent back to Europe. In such a case

heart and passions. Whether in cabin
or steerage, clippers are detained by the
bureau If detected.
When an clipping couple appears, no
matter by whom discovered they are
turned over to Mrs. Stucklln. She
speaks German and English fluently
and has gained sufficient mastery of
about all the languages and dialects to

times 1t Is IA stubborn case, where for
days both parties deny their relations
and other men offer to wed the girl and
even other women claim the man as
their lawful husband, What tangles
these women of the steerage and their
heart affairs do weave no romance

of the affairs become humorous and

In THE Quest OF the Golden Girl the
author grows most enthusiastic and
uses capitals to express his enthusiasm
for "The Girl Who Works" To-day she Is

nobody; she Is a great swell; she may
be Peter Cooper's daughter, who sup
piles various restaurants with eggs and
milk, or she may be little Miss Bios

out of the fashion--unless you buy ev-
erything possible from THE Girl Who

For wear with your tailor made gown
you are nobody unless you deal with
the latest fashionable shopkeeper-that
is to say. you must get your big puffed
scarf, your narrow string tie. your me-
dunn sized tcck, or whatever you may
lean to in the way Of scarfs, from the
Johnstone Bennett Neckwear company.
That is the business into which the
clever little actress has gone. initiating
titled woman in London. You go to
the handsome building: you ride up sew
eral flights In the elevator and, wishing
the newest thing in scarfs, you enter an
artistically furnished room and then
wonder where the stock is. There is no
sign OF trade The room has been prop
erly arranged By famous Boston house
decorator, and when you speak to one
of the pleasant women standing around
you are shown the richest as well as the
newest materials. There are pictures
or samples Of the styles, but your spe-
cial scarf will be made to order for you.
and, delight of delights, you will have
one like the one that | ordered, which
can't be copied-a darling that has not
merely the name of the maker on the
back. but made to order for Bah by

girls are all going there for their scarfs.
That the scarfs are well made goes
without saying, but every woman likes

Scotch College Girls.

Since the college doors We're opened
to women in Scotland the students have
shown a pardonable patriotism in many
curious ways. The formal college cap
has met new rivals in the Flora Mac
donald bonnet. the Glengarry, the
Tam O'Shanter, the cock of the walk
the Bobbie Burns and the highland
chieftain. In wearing apparel there has
been revival of Scotch friezes, Gale
DOMAIN shawis and historical plaids and
tartans. Some of the college clubs and
societies have adopted as uniform
the style made famous by great women
of Scotch history.
The most general of all fashions, how
ever Is the use of tartans for street and
college costumes. The effect is describ-
ed as most happy. bringing to mind the
picturesque days of the highlanders of
romance.

Commissioner Evans has been
called upon for an opinion az to
whether a pensioner could enlist in
case of war with Cuba. It appeared
. simple question. and there seemed
to be no reason why any man who
wanted to fight for his country
should not be allowed to do 90. But
upon investigation the commissioner
informed his inquirers that they were
pensioned for disability, and the
government always sought for able
bodied men for soldiers. The pen
sion stood in the way Of old soldiers'
snlisting, for it was . certificate Of
disability which no medical examine
ton could set aside, Tho old
soldiers who draw pensions win
not be able to enlist for the Cuban
war.
