To Insult Another Woman in a Sure,
Effective Way.
1T takes n woman to insult another
woman" casually remarked the man
with a flower In his coat, "and don't
mean to insult the sex by saying it,
either. 1t is simple fact" "Oh, very
well," assented his listener. "But what
do you call it beside simple fact when
you make such a sweeping charger
We'll, for instance" said this man
with flower in his coat, II was at a
reception the other afternoon, where
pretty young woman, a local artist.
was hidden to sing. She happened to
DE suffering from a bad cold. but rather
than disappOint the hostess who de-
pended on her voice for entertaining
the guests, she began bravely a we'll
known German song, which she does
usually remarkably well. And then |
was an eyewitness to a scene that illus.
trates my sweeping charge. Seated
directly in front of the singer were two
ladies who disdained the art that hac
been fostered in a rival clique, and who
were determined to let their victim see
how despised she was, how bad her
voice, how crude her method: at least
this was all written on their counten-
ances, as l saw them. The lady who
knew it all signaled the lady who
knew that she knew it all by
pushing out a Boston boot and
touching the others foot Indescriba-
bic WEAKNESS lifted the eyebrow of the
lady who knew it all. and the lady who
knew that she knew it all leaned for
ward, resting her chin in her glove. as
though unable to hold herself erect an
instant longer. And still the song went
/ on! And still the ladies rustled and
twisted, fastening their gaze blankly on
the singer, but at last the lady who
knew that she knew it all perceived her
insult was not taking effect. and there
upon she arose bidding her hostess
good-by in the middle of the last verse
with great flourish" And you think
this is nice thing to relate" cried a
woman, who, happily for her doesn't

man. calmly, but was it nice of your
sex to try to upset a fellow-creature
by letting her see how distasteful she
was not because she couldn't sing. but

1.-THE increase in the amount of
money deposited to the credit of saw
ings bank accounts during the last four
years has been, in round numbers, $27,-
100000 in the state of Illinois alone"
was stated by b. NJ. Chattelle, of the
Illinois trust and savings bank. He con-
tinued: "Depositors manifest feel
ing of complete security. The demo-
cratic prediction that the republican
party would not fulfill its promises to
pay in gold has been proven false. The
people as whole are satisfied
Trade has never been so brisk" was
the report from Williamson & Co., deal
ers in gas and electric fixtures. "Our
trade has increased so per cent. in the
last seven months. Better grades of
goods are called for, indicating greater
ease in money matters, and consequent
ly more liberality in furnishing the
home"
Business with us has increased
wonderfully in the last two years, not
alone in number of patrons, but also in
amounts of individual checks" Mr.
Phillip Heinrich. the well-known res
taurateur declared in tones of con-
viction. c: w. King and L. n. Knight
who, with Mr.. Heinrich, cater to the
wants of thousands daily, indorse this
opinion, and Mr.. King added: "While
some supplies may cost trif1e more,
Others are less expensive. Higher wages
are paid the help, and feeling of con-
tentment seems general"
Passenger traffic on the railroads
in the west has been heavy during the
last two years, and particularly so for
few months past" was the expression
of Mr.. p. S. Eustis. Of the Burlington
Route" Passenger earnings show sub
stantial increases from month to
month over corresponding periods of
previous years. This year there seems
10 be a disposition to travel. conven-
tions and other excursions draw out
large crowds. while regular business
in all directions is very satisfactory.
This is undoubtedly due to the fair
prices which farmers receive for their
products. and the particularly good
prices for cattle and hogs which have
prevailed"

with Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii and the
Philippine islands has been growing very
rapidly. In 1896 1t was $13. Asa, 276. of which
over $4,000, 900 was in agricultural products.
In 1897 IL was $142Sl. 7S5, of which over
