seventh floor barber shop OF one OF the
down town Office buildings and sat up
right in one OF the cushioned chairs.
The tonsorial artist adjusted the towel
and hair cloth and was preparing TO

stranger shouted his instructions at tho
top of his voice.

the drinks he had taken to relieve the
pain had caused him to lose his bear

THE WILDS OF MONTANA.

Il suppose things are still pretty
wild out your way?" he queried OF the
man who had admitted that he was
from Montana.
Well, yes. you might call them

"And every day brings its thrilling
Adventures"

Anything thrilling happened to you
of late?" persisted the questioner.

Il heard a crash from the grand
salon, and, carefully laying aside my
book and walking in there with
languid step, l found

masters of Rubens had fallen down

sire to be. I didn't see what to my
mind was a gracious, quiet, well-bred
woman in the lot.
They we're all seekers after notori-
ETY., of one sort or another-typical
club women such as gather together
for the purpose of paying those COM
pliments to each other that men have
ceased to pay to them. Not N was
the sort you could ever imagine at
the head of a good homeland if a
man can denounce a woman more
strongly than that l am not aware of
it. If this is what voting has done
for the women of Colorado, then let
there be no further voting of women,
say 1.
THE effect of women upon Colo
RADIOS politics has been no better than
the effect of politics upon Colorado's
women" continued the man. 81 don't
say that politics is above reproach in
all other States, and neither do l say
that are wholly responsible for
the political corruption in Colorado.
But when the State in which women
have fullest political swing is so no
toriously corrupt it is impossible not
to draw certain differences. The kind
of women that have been doing the
voting for both parties since women's
suffrage was established, in 1894,
strengthens this inference.
After the first novelty wore Off very
few of the best women in Denver
best in every sense, social, intellec-
tual and moral-went near the polls.
In quantity as well as quality the wo-
mans vote has steadily decreased.
This year more women have voted
than have done so since the first year
-1S94-but that was due to general
reasons rather than to particular ones.
It's a mere question of time, to my
mind, until the Colorado laws grant
ing suffrage to women are repealed.

Eastern Man Comments on Woman
Suffrage Out in Colorado IA He
Found 1T.
Woman suffrage was the feature of
the campaign in Colorado" said a man
who spent considerable time in that
State prior to the election. "You had
it there in all it's glory-or lack Of
glory, according to your point of view.
Those who believe in a woman making
herself conspicuous and in casting
their political lot with men to the
very letter would have %applauded the
exhibition, U suppose. Nobody who
admires gentleness, refinement, mod
esty and the other traits long held to
be the chief charm of womanhood
could have approved it.
"Colorado's woman politicians of
both parties are upon precisely the
same plan as the men. The women
Republicans and the women Democrats
alike had their headquarters at a prom
inent hotel, while their leaders were
always on view. Women crowded the
hotel corridors, talking it over-some-
times with each other, more often
with men. They had aeihand in all the
political meetings; they presided, and
they made speeches, and they stumped
the State-just as the men were do
ing.
10 an fastener, unused to such
things, the situation was nothing short
of startling. 1t is nothing against a
woman, of course, to be middle-aged,
stout and short-skirted and gray
haired, but when she makes these
things conspicuous and is l~oud-voiced
and b~ad-mannered and unwomanly be-
sides, they must all reflect upon her
personally as we'll as upon the cause
she represents. 1t may be that, as an
%easterner. L am not educated up TO
the woman politicians of Colorado,
but l must confess that l have no lie.

ANOTHER BLOW TO FRANCE.

schools ana English n required

The German Emperor greatly Of
Tended the French on his accession to
the throne when he ordered the menu
to the royal household to be printed
in German instead Of following the
custom of having them in French.
That ruling was of very small i'm
portance compared to the recent order
by which the study Of English Is
made a special feature in the German
schools and obligatory in the upper
class. In come grades French is to
be an optional study, but English Is
mandatory.
The anachronism Of having one
small country impose its language upon
the whole world as the price of inter-
course with it is gradually being re-
moved. Hereafter, unless France wishes
to be left in the rear, her people win
be compelled to acquaint themselves

ARIZONA KICKLETS.

Copyright, 1901, by C. b. Lewis.)
In our issue last week we had 81
murder and robbery items, and yet
the paper was hardly off the press
when three or four subscribers came
growing around and wanted to know
why we didn't print something to
keep our readers from falling asleep.
AS we are a kicker ourselves We
never seek to curtail that privilege
in others.
The Lone Jack Recorder says that
our name alone is sufficient to pre-
vent our being governor. Our cog
nomen, as most of the world is
aware, is Jim Hellso, of Giveadam
Gulch, and, while not quite as ro-
mantle as Claude Mellnotte, it has
never been written on the books of a
state prison or recorded in an idiot
asylum. We don't propose to change
it for any other, and we do propose
to become governor some day.
Ed. Parker, of the Bald Eagle sa-
loon, has sent to Chicago for a cash

fired at that register within 20 min
utes after it is operated, and if he
gets hurt by the flying splinters he
need expect no public sympathy.

The Girls Allowance.
Harper's BaZal

Harper's Bazaar.
The question of an allowance for the
daughter of the household is one that is
constantly being discussed. 1t seems to be
pretty generally accepted that it is a good
idea, and teaches a girl the value and use
of money. So it does. but it sometimes
teaches her some other things that need d
little guarding against. A girl with an
allowance occasionally makes it an ex-
cuse for penuriousness on the one side,
and unhesitating begging on the other,
that tend a little to character deteriora-
ton. While ii is perfectly right and proper
to give as an excuse for self-denial that
ones allowance is exhausted, or will not
admit Of the proposed purchase, or pleas
ure trip. it is not right 10 say, as girls have
been heard to do: I'll go with YOU, but
you must pay my car fare or, Il have
only q dime TO spare In the treat II you
will let me come in on that etc. l have
heard a girl reply, in answer to a sug-
gestion from a companion on a short rail-
road trip, that a parlor car should DC
taken, "Oh, if We do that, you will have
to pay my way on il, my allowance Is
so nearly spent" Girls who would shrink
from the idea of 'sponging" under other
circumstances do not hesitate to take adj
10 hang a good many small WEAKNESSES
mothers purse. the cribbing by any means
and outright purloining, indeed, are not
disguised. These are only little foxes, to
be sure. girls. but they gnaw the vines
of integrity and self-respcct, and would
be better choked off.

Odds and Ends.

straight, tapering body.
To clean soiled white wooden articles rub
them in hot flour till perfectly clean. Then

1t really cleanses the article most thor

Broad girdles are growing in popularity.
They may be cut bias and drawn into the
figure or shaped by darts. A deep direc-
toire girdle seen on a Partisan woman was
of bias louisine, crossed in front and orna-
mented with large buttons, which were ex-
quisitely painted miniatures.
A pretty idea for the trimming of sailor
hats of coarse straw is TO lay around the
crown a broad, soft band of silk or ribbon,
plain color preferred. One end should be
fringed for an inch or ar inch and a half
and drawn through a fancy buckle on the
side. leaving the end to fall loosely over the
edge of the brim.
A favorite sleeve on linen gowns seems to
be the modified bishop gathered into a lit
tie close cuff. This is pretty when the ruff
is of coarse Russian embroidery to match
collar or revers. A good sleeve for a sum-
mer jacket is short. ending half way be-
tween the wrist and elbow, and slashed on
the outside Of the arm to allow the pulled
undersleeves TO show.
An effective skirt trimming was seen on a
fashionably dressed woman recently. The
skirt was of bright blue barege and had
two LOUNGES of about seven inches each.
On the lower edge of each fiounce were two
rows of baby ribbon. one white, the other
black, with no space between them. The
ruf1ed heading of the upper f1ounce had
the same ribbon trimming.
One way of getting rid of ants is to pro-
cure a large sponge. wash it we'll and press
it dry, which will leave the cells quite open;
then sprinkle it with fine white sugar and
place it near where the ants are trouble
some. They viii collect upon the sponge
and make the cells their abode. when it is
only necessary TO dip IL into boiling water
20 destroy the ants. The sponge can then
be set again and thus used repeatedly.
a sleeve that looks well on the light
cloth gown it accompanies fares slightly
below the elbow. and ends half way be-
tween this point and the wrist. 1t is
trimmed with three stitched straps on the
inside of the arm. the upper one at the ell
bow. On the outside the sleeve is slashed to
the elbow and laced by means of small gold
buttons. The inner sleeve, instead of the
usual puff. is of lace in a straight piece
that flares slightly more than the dress
sleeve, is open on the outside Of the arm,
and ends at the wrist. The sleeve is par
ticularly suited to this gown. which has a
straight inner vest Of lace coming from I'M
der the pointed sides of a bolero jacket.
