Bilkins and his wife occupied seats
in the dress circle. The curtain had
just gone up for the second act, the first
scene showing the heroine in street COS
tune As Billdns rested his gaze upon
the woman his face Wore puzzled ex-
preston. Several times he took hurried
chances at the programme he had in his
hand He became so deeply interested
that he attracted the attention OF his
wife.
"What do you see that interests you
sol" inquired his wife "She isn't
pretty
"iay, isn't that the same hat that
woman wore in the last actS'' exclaim-
ed Bilkins, seemingly ignoring his
wifes question.
Mrs Bilkins glanced in the direction
of the stage

what of itf"
"Oh, nothing, only it seems so odd"
"What does?"
"Why, that she should still be wear

1.-The new woman wants her rights
and her privileges, too, and as matter
of fact I am very glad she does cling to
her privileges, and I hope she always
will, which means that I hope she'll
stay woman. But the way in which
she mikes her rights and privileges up
is sometimes little confusing For in
stance:
"When walking along the sidewalk
woman holds her course and lets the
man turn out, and she does this just
the same down town in the busiest
streets as she would in calm and quiet
residence street, You might think that
q business woman working among bust
ness men in business part of the town
would adopt business methods in every
thing, and that when you met her in
the street she would turn to the right
as you do and as all men do, but she
doesn't. She holds her course, which is
very likely to be along the inner side of
the walk, and expects you to turn out
for her. even if it carries you to the left
instead of to the right, She doesn't
care about that.

you meet her woman expects man to
turn out for her, and hope she always
will. New York Sun.

Our Florida Alligator.

An alligator is not an attractive
creature He has not single virtue
that can be named He is cowardly,
Heacherous, hideous. He is neither
graceful nor even respectable IN appear
nee. He is not even amusing or
grotesque in his ungainliness, for as o
brute-a brute unqualifed-he is al
ways so intensely real that one shrinks
from him with loathing and laugh at
his expense while in his presence would
seem curiously out Of place.
His personality, too, is strong. Once
catch the steadfast gaze Of free, adult
alligator's wicked eyes, with their odd
vertical pupils fixed full upon your own,
and the significance of the expression
"evil eye" and the mysteries of snake
charming, hypnotism and hoodooism
Will be readily understood, for his bru-
fish, merciless, unfinching stare is sim
ply blood chiling.-L ", Blake In

1nsanity's Debt to Medical Science.


Insanity is now recognized as dis
ease which is the result Of some func-
tional or organic disturbance of the
brain or of some injury or malformation
of that organ Be it said to the ever
lasting credit of medical science that it
has rescued the whole subject of the dis
eases of the brain and nervous system
from the region of myth and superstition
and placed it on a scientific plane along
with the other diseases and injuries to
which human flesh is heir.
The old lunatic asylums and the filthy
cells of the county jails with all their
horrors where the victims Of dethroned
reason used to be confined and tortured
have been abolished and in their place
we now have the modern hospital for
the insane, and it stands ON the same
footing in every respect as hospital
for diseases of the eye and ear or any
other medical speciality, 1t was not the
churches, but medical science, inspired
by desire to benefit mankind, which
taught the world that the insane are
our brothers still and that to them is
due the same Christian charity and care
as to any others in distress. John
Girdner in North American Review.
