When girl of sixteen is seen on the
street she has cute way Of tossing her
head as though she owned the earth
and was going to the middle of the
next block to get it. After she is eight
teen the world she owns is about as far
as the worlds fair to the most Of u.s.,
and at twenty she gives up all hope Of
ever getting it at all. By the time she
is twenty-five, poor thing, she has a
faint, vague suspicion that their is a
great deal of insincerity in the world
and the thing for her to do is to get a
position and do something useful
After awhile she gets married to man
who isn't at all the sort of man she
dreamed Of. Then she concludes that
she would be better off in heaven.

PROGRESS or TIE COMMISSION.
United Stat" Determined Not TO Assume the
Cuban Debt

The American and Spanish peace
commissions closed their first two
weeks OF labor at Paris last Saturday,
and the progress made has been chief
ly by negative action and the attitude
OF the Americans.
The first article of the protocol pro-
vided that Spain viii relinqulsh all
claim Of sovereignty over and title to
Cuba" Naturally the joint sessions
were devoted to the Cuban article Of
the protocol. Naturally. too, the Amer
leans opened their case by the assump-
ton that little or no action was nee
essary regarding Cuba, on the ground
that It's disposition was definitely fixed
by the terms Of the protocol.
Whether the Americans declined any
Spanish obligation on account of Cuba,
none In Paris save those who were
present. know. Whatever may have
transpired. whether the Spaniards
were or were not advised that the
United States declines to assume the
Cuban debt, II may be distinctly said
that with such light as II now has, the
United States commission will consist
emily and to the end refuse to assume
all or any part Of the Cuban debt.
