Ten Beaus for Every Girl in Idaho.

With the bachelors outnumhering
the maids in every State in the Union
it ought to be easy for the unmarried
woman to secure a partner anywhere,
but the region where bachelors are
most in excess is, of conrse, the most
favorable to the spinster. since the
abundance of unmarried men gives
her a wider range of choice. From a
matrimonial point of view Idaho is
the best State of the Union, for there
the number of the bachelors is to that
of the maids as 1854 TO 1,426, each
unmarried woman in Idaho, therefore,
having ten or eleven bachelors, not
exactly at her beck, but available as a
husband. From most points of view
the West is the Mecca of the young
unmarried woman, for not only are
there more unmarried men in the
Western States, but living is. more
easily made in the West than in the
East, and therefore the Western men
are more addicted to matrimony.-
