TALK OF MARRIAGE.
1t Is Proper For the Man, but Not
For the Girl, Apparently.

1t Is Proper For the Man, but Not
For the Girl, Apparently.
y man may remark on his intention
to marry at some indefinite future time,
when prudence or other considerations
may make it possible or advisable,
without having, as a rule, to run the
gauntlet of chorus of impertinent and
stupid would be witty remarks. But
should girl be bold enough, or, rather,
natural and simple enough, to say the
same thing what would be the result?
Why, every one knows that she would
be promptly sneered out of counte-
nance.
And why? Is it immodest for wom-
an to express a determination to enter
into state which we are being contin-
ually reminded is natural and honor
able state, while it Is modest and prop
er for man to do so? Such distinc-
ton would never be drawn except for
the "cheapness" to which reference has
been made
If man wants to marry, he can mar
ry. If the first woman he asks refuses
him, he has only to ask second or per-
haps third or fourth. It would be
safe to guarantee that within a month
any man of fairly respectable life and
position and appearance who cared to
make the experiment could marry in
his own class, could marry probably a
woman much superior to himself
But what about the girl who intends
to marry 'some day." Is she not in a
very different position from the man?
Here Is girl of good character-much
better than the mans, probably-aver-
age intelligence, average good looks.
Theoretically she is free to marry
whom she will, but is she? If she re-
ceives one distinct offer of marriage.
she has had more than her share, ac-
cording to the probable average.
The fact that by an unwritten law a
woman must not take, and, indeed, does
not want to take, the initiative has very
little TO do with the extremely limited
choice which modern conditions impose
upon English women.-Nineteenth Cen
fury.

the largest trained animal collection
in Great Britain. His uncle. Sir
Charles Wombwell. was the orieins-
tor and founder Of the first travelling
menagerie in the world. MIR. Bos-
took is the successor of this gentle
Ian III the business. His policy
with wild animals is to conquer them
first by establishing his superiority
and then by kindness. His methods
are worthy of the consideration of
the humanitarian and psychologist.
A curious fact in this connection is:
Mr.. Bostock has several bright chill
dren who invariably refuse to play
with dolls and toys. They always
cry for baby lions, baby tigers, and
it is common occurrence to see
Francis Edward Bostock, bow OF
five, roll all over two baby elephants,
in the collection. These three play
together like friendly kittens.
Stcinway has placed an elegant
piano which cost $4,000 in the New
York State Building at the Pan
American Exposition. The piano is
made of dull finished mahogany. The
legs are Doric columns made to cor
respond with those which support the
porticos Of the buildings. On the
cover of the piano is the coat of arms
Of the State of New York inlaid in
colored woods. In every particular,
the workmanship corresponds with
the style of the room in which it is
placed. This piano will remain in
the building permanently, as what is
now the New York State Building
will be the Historical Building for
the permanent use of the Historical
Society of Buffalo.
