HEART-HUNGRY WOMEN.
Men Said to BE Splendid Lovers, bu.
Heartless Husbands.

Women, perhaps, treasure love in
their hearts more than men do. They
probably love more deeply, and feel
neglect, or fancied neglect, more keen
ly. There has been good deal said
of the great necessity of keeping
love-" but it might be argued that il
it has to be preserved or picked, or
tied up in parcel, or looked after. like
furs in summer and plants in frosty
weather, it's not the best kind that
there's something artificial about it,
and that it doesn't thrive we'll in the
climate it happens to live in. Hus-
bands and wives don't always grow
apart by being too reserved. The
calamity has been known to come
about by the entire absence of reserve
and common politeness. Natures diff
fer so. The matter-of-fact woman will
drive the sensitive man to the lunatic
asylum unless the good fairy who gave
him his sensitiveness dropped him a
lump of common sense at the same
time. It is often declared that the man
who was a splendid lover proves q
neglectful and thoughtless husband.
Sometimes he drops into the human
habit of understanding the good things
of his life directly they are his, some
times he takes up the natural even
tenor of life more quickly than his
wife does. Often he is reserved, and
sometimes he thinks that the eternal
mounting Of the word "love" is silly
and sentimental. If he does. it's to
be hoped he'll marry woman who is
exactly Of his mind. If not there are
troubles ahead for them both, and the
lions share will be hers-poor thing.
A reticent Scotchman-married for
thirty years-knelt beside his wife's
deathbed, and with his arms about
her, called her darling" for the first
time within the memory of the grown
up son beside him. The young man
told me this himself, and told me how
strangely the unaccustomed words
sounded between them. He said his
mothers eyes opened and
smile of half-shy gladness passed
over her face. and then she
died. Perhaps they needed no
tender words along the years. Per-
haps they understood each other. But
If she had missed them; IL she had
been heart-hungry, as women often
are, what pity that the sweet old
love-word had come 80 very Late

UTAH's CAVE OF ICE.
ONE OF, THE WORLDS NATURAL
" cuRIoslTlEs.
Located in the Northwestern rart OF
the State and Bids Fair to Become n
Rival of Kentucky's Famous Mann
moth Cave.

Utah has produced another won
der. This time it is an ice cave.
So remarkable is this ice cave
that it bids fair to become rival
of that other subterranean marvel,
Mammoth cave. According to the San
Francisco Chronicle it is located in
northwestern Utah, near Lake Badly,
one of the highest peaks of the Wa
satch range. The cave has been ex-
plored distance Of 1000 feet from its
mouth, but there exploration has been
stopped by log jam that has closed
the opening into the next underground
chamber. The mouth of the cave is
twenty feet wide and forty feet high.
A few feet from the entrance is mon
strous icicle or ice column eight feet in
diameter. 1t reaches from the floor to
the ceiling, distance of seventy-five
feet. The column has been formed by
the dripping of the water overhead.
1t is clear sapphire-like blue. Pass
Ing this great guarding column, the
explorer finds dozen small pools.
Some of them are covered with a coat
of ice two inches thick, Of solidity
to charm skater. Others are of
warm almost hot air. The pools are
fed by small streams, some hot, some
cold, that ooze from crannies in the
wall. All about stand pillars of ice
little smaller than the giant guarding
the entrance. There are perhaps fifty
of these. Stalactites Of ice are pendent
from the ceiling. The most curious
feature of the cave is that a dozen cur
rents Of air, varying in temperature
from Arctic cold to Sahara heat, play
about in it, and make the visitor fancy
he is having an attack of ague. Some
times fierce food from Brush
creek drives mass of floating logs
through the entrance of the cave, and
across its thousand feet of pools of
varying temperature to the mouth of
the second Of the series of caves, eff
fectually barricading it. There is no
warning of the wonders beneath until
you come to the edge of precipice in
Mount Baldy's rocky environs. Look
ing over the sixtyfoot precipice you
see a big dark hole at the left and be-
meath you. AS though nature would
guard this wonderful cave from sight
of man she has thrown a great wall of
lime rock across the entrance. Nor
mon settlers had heard of this cave Of
ice from vagrant Indians, but it re-
manned for two snub-nosed, red-haired,
freckled urchins of 10 and IL years to
find it while "herdin' cows"

she answered, with passion. "Our lives
are our own, posterity must look after
itself. We have right to make the
best of our lives, such as they are,
without consulting the interests of
those who may never exist. If they
do exist, then they must take their
chance, and bear their burdens as we
bear ours. All this talk about the fu-
ture and posterity is nonsense. What
will posterity care for us that we
should care for it? We cannot affect
it one way or the other; it is hopeless
to expect to turn Nature out of her
path. We are nothing but feathers
blown about by the wind, and all we
can do is to go down where the wind
blows us, and when we fall, we fall
as softly as we may"
looked up in establishment. I had
no idea that Fanny held views as
merciless, and, opposed to all pure
altruism as they were, in sense, I'M
answerable. Indeed, I had heard her
express notions directly contrary, and
at the moment was totally at loss
to account for the change. OF course,
however, the explanation was easy
enough. Theory had come into con-
flict with interest, and, as is often the
case, even in the most highly developed
people, it was so much the worse for
the theory.
