The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1899-01-22

I
| Is realized that at the time OF the pro-
duetton of the music Siegfried was very
/ young. When il was first brought out the
| young man was in his sixth year.
The inconsistency of woman is shown ian
| the following story from the New York
| Times:
! Il am so provoked with Dick" said the
| girl If l didn't think so much of him
! I'd break my engagement just on account
| OF mis- stupidity. l never knew him 10 do
| such a thing before, either. He came this
! morning and wanted me to go sleighius
this afternoon, and of course Il would have
been delightful, but I have been out 81
much lately, and there is Mrs. Blank $
dinner this evening, so l said I really
| thought l ought to rest and take a long
nap to-day.
He did look disappointed; IN give him
credit for that. What did he say but:
Well you do look tired, dear Perhaps
You had better rest
Was there ever anything so stupid? I
suppose he Will so off and have a good
time by himself. It's a very stupid man
who doesn't know that if a woman cares
for him she would a great deal rather do
what he wants her to than anything she
may think she wants to do herself. Of
course, to a reasonable extent
Il met such stupid man down South at
one time. He had an idea that he would
make such good husband and make the
woman he married SO happy Well l sup
pose he would make a good husband in
way. He would be most considerable and
do everything a woman wanted hims to do
and never do anything she didn't want him
TO, and in the end she would simply hate
him.
I don't see why shouldn't make

subject, and I'd allow her perfect freedom
of action in every way
Now, wasn't that idiotic? He was Just
learning the very best way to make
tiresome husband if he could get any one
10 marry him. Just one little thing illus
trates his stupidity. There was little
girl down there who was very fond of me
and Of whom l made quite a pet. Now.
little girls are very nice sometimes and
this was a dear little girl. but sometimes
you get tired of even the incest little girls.
Well, this wretched man was to take me
driving, and we were all ready to go,
when out comes this little girl, and she
must go. too.
Did 1 ask to have her go? No, certainly
l didn't But if had there was no reason
why that foolish man shouldn't have left
her at home. But what did he do but tuck

like to have all your remarks repeated as
they appear from child's standpoint

Daisy that man said later, a little later.
a little sulkily, but l knew you thought
so much of her. Was ever anything more
ridiculous? And what could say? Not a
single word, and only manage to have as
little to do with such stupid as possible
You see, woman can't say exactly just
what she likes best, even to people she
knows very well. and if man insists
upon having his own way, it is sure to be
satisfactory, or, if ii isn't, il will be made
very manifest, indeed.
"And now there's Dick acting Just such
another goose. 1 don't believe he cares
anything for me at all. If he did he
wouldn't be willing TO go off and have a
nice time without me this afternoon. I'll
never forgive him. He
"Oh, there that dear boy is now with
the sleigh. 1 couldn't believe he would
be so foolish. John, say 1 win be ready
in just moment"
An enthusiastic musician of this city
tells an amusing and hitherto imprinted
anecdote of Paderewskis last Southern
tour, says the New Orleans Times-Demo-
Graf.
Il encountered the pianist and his
party when they were passing through
Georgia" he says, land had the pleas
ure of riding for some distance with
them in their private car. At one of the
stops Paderewski was handed a letter
from a certain grande dame and noted
society leader of a large Western city
1t was the most gushing epistle I ever
listened to, and, after several pages of
what was evidently intended as a tribute
to his art, the writer wound up by request
ing a lock of hair and inclosed a stamp
for return postage.
when the laughter had subsidized Pad
erewskfs secretary proceeded to indite
a reply, which, as nearly as 1 remember,
ran almost as follows:
Dear Madame: NJ Paderewski directs
me to say that 1t affords him much pleas
ure to comply with your request. You fail
to specify whose hair you desire, and to
avoid error, he has secured sample from
each of the staff en- voyage; to wit, his
manager, his secretary, his valet, his two
cook and his waiter, together with a small
portion from cat and a mattress, be-
longing to M. Pullman propretaire of
the coach de luxe which we occupy. l have
the honor to be your obedient servant
"There was some uproariouS sport in
collecting the souvenirs, especially that
contributed by the cat belonging to the
ProprIetai:e Pullman. but they were
finally secured and the package mailed
a the next station. I have often won

admirer must have been when she gazed
on that collection of hirsute freaks"
The cotton shirt waist, says the New
York Sun, has made its annual appear
ance. Some say the shirt waist is espec-
tally suited TO the needs of the poor woman.
but experience has proved that her rich
sister finds just as much use for il. There
is nothing startliugly new about the first
display of waists. For the most part they
are made of fine ginghams and cheviots
in delicate colorings, and are somewhat
less fancy in design than those of last
year Most of the materials are striped
either vertically or in Bayadere effect |
