comes to him of having any duty to stay
and help lift the misery he brought on IN
nocent people. In times of great financial
stress, when a rich man has everything
swept away. he. too. often solves the ques-
ton of the future for himself by suicide,
leaving his wife and little children TO face
a situation for which they are wholly un-
prepared. You never hear of a woman
committing suicide and leaving her little
| children to the cruel mercies of the world,
| because she has lost her property In
stead she feels more Ian ever that they
need her care, and her help and that
| she would be incapable of the unmention-
| able baseness of deserving them in such
crisis
Yet if suicide is ever justifable, it Is for
woman far more than men. She is always
handicapped in the race of life, Sometimes
with bodily infirmfties, sometimes with
with mental idiosyncracies, always by lack
| of training and business experience. Hard
as poverty is for a man, il is harder still
for a woman Desperate as the struggle
| for existence is for him, 1t is still more
| desperate for her, limited by narrower OPP
portunities, and rewarded with .esser pay.
| Terrible as are the tortures suffered by
many a poor wretch. they are no worse
| than the lifelong martyrdom that many a
woman endures with never a thought of
doing anything but bearing them with
| Christian fortitude and resignation until
Gods own hand sets her free.
There are many reasons why this state
of affairs should exist. Womau's whole f.
is one long lesson in patience and submits
sion. She must always give in. Men
| feel that they are born to command to
| force circumstances to their VIII, and
when circumstances can no longer be fore
ed or bent, and they must yield to unto
ward faith, too many yield TO the de-
| sire to avoid the misery they see before

with a wall, and the dying man takes leave
| of it with a groan. Between there is no
time that has not its own troubles, and
cares, and sorrows and it is, our part
to bear them with courage. and it should
| be part of our pride in our sex that 50
many women sustain this brave attitude
towards life under circumstances that
might well tempt them 10 play the COW
ards part.
From Paris comes news that the new
wcllt' there does not entail a swining of
| the hips aud long, Looping steps like those
affected by the girls who follow in Mrs.
Carters erratic footsteps. The new Pa
risian walk is designed ito display to the
utmost the beauty of the clinging tunlc
/ and flower-like skirt The gait is easy to
initiate, but much easier to exaggerate.
One must walk slowly, take extreme Y

the foot.
The models who display the new gowns at
| the dressmakers' have exaggerated this
gait in the most ludicrous fashion. As
they come toward one they appear to be
doing a curious dance, and one is reminded
of certain, housekeeping horses that take
an hour to get round the park The
| truth is that one cannot hurry in the new
skirt, and, cut long, it is impossible for
the street"
One of the last things people like to ad-
nit usually, says the New York Post is
that their teeth are not their own in the
sense of not having grown in their mouths.
A single member from the porcelain facto-
nv is not Objectionable. The need of 1t
might be caused by an accident or for
good many reasons, but when it comes to
several and a plate, then the subject be-
comes a delicate one. But there was
woman in the street car the other day
who apparently had a brand-new set of
| teeth and she was strangely proud of
them. She first attracted the attention or
passengers by the smiles that she lavished
uDon them Unfortunately. Every SIN lie
| brought the new teeth into view more
prominently and the evidence that they
were false and the people began TO smile
quietly themselves. But even then the
woman was not sure that her new treas
ures were properly observed, and, draw
ing in her lower lip, she brought her up
per teeth down upon it and tapped them
care.essly with her finger, looking off into
vacancy meanwhile with conscious air Of
Inconsistencies.
