SENSIBLE WOMEN UNPOPULAR
They Earn the Animosity of Members
of Their Own Sex They
Are Not Fashionabie.

OF late it has come to be regarded
as a misfortune for a woman TO be
sensible. says the Chicago Chronicle.
She is not in the fashion. and there
fore might as well be out of the
world. One of these sensible women
had a cook whom she cherished above
rubies-cherished to such an extent,
indeed, that sometimes she was moved
to hustle out to the kitchen and de-
clare that Kate looked pale and was
in need of instant rest. Whereupon
Katie was bundled off upstairs and
milady herself would finish washing
the dishes or making the cake.
After four years Of such humane
treatment Mrs. Cook walked off with
out a word of warning one day and
her employer. descending from her
stills and becoming just an ordinary
person. wept and declared the un-
grateful one "a mean old thing"
The sensible woman is fearfully
hard on romances. She picks the
prettiest love story in the world so
to pieces that il looks like even less
than 30 cents when she gets through
with it.
Each bit of sentiment she dissects
with the aid of her merciless prac-
teal sense and points out how it is
founded on selishness and will grad
ually grow into Indifference. There
is a fearful reason in all she says that
makes a deep impression on her
hearer and perhaps leads that young
woman to desperate and foolish deeds
or renuneiation.
Once the sensible woman entered a
house of sorrow. A young girl lay
dying there and her family were gath
cred at her bedside. when the prac-
teal woman came to the door and
called out one of the weeping ones.
Marie" she said. in her brisk tones.
"it Is evident Jennie can last but a
short time. Don't you think I'd bet
ter have the drawing-room swept SO
that she NAV he laid out in it?"

CLOTHES IN INDIA.
4 Mistaken Motion About Their
weight In That Country IL Gem
orally Entertained.

It Is the prevailing idea that India
has . toasting hot climate and that
the residents go around in thin white
linen. aimsy gsuzes and laces, and
live with a palm-leaf fan in their
hands. Therefore, many mistakes are
made by travellers who go out to the
coral strands Of song, mistakes the
more bitterly regretted as all ones
clothes must be brought from home.
Bombay, for instance, is moist and
hot like a Turkish bath. Poona, to
which all the people Of Bombay who
have money emigrate for three
months and where all the social
functions occur. Is cool, and Msha-
bleshwa. another hill station, is like
wise. In Bombay all il soft, light
and starch,ess; in Poona the summer
garments of England and america
suffice, and in Mahableshwa serges
and tweeds are necessary.
At Calcutta and simls the smartest
and most ~up-to-date clothes are ei.led
for. In Calcutta the women wear the
dainty fripperies of . London June.
and when they go up to Simla they
add warm furs and cloaks. Simla is
the Paris of the Himalayas. During
six months in Simla you experience
three climates-two months warm,
bright and joyful; three of fogs and
heavy rains, when nothing but stout
boots and heavy tweeds can be worn.
and two months Of rarefed, cham
pagny atmosphere that demands the
furs.
In some territories IL so cold that
the people who cannot afford fnrs
wear leather coats. and the British
TROOPS have special vests made,
padded and lined.
As to lingerie. the finest cambria is
advisable, but lavish laces are not ad-
yisab.e, in spite of the clever washer.

when the candidate arrived the conven-

been nominated.
On his return TO the stable late the
following afternoon, knowing that it
was useless to resent the trick played

LABOR TROUBLE IN DERBY. Two Women Set Upon by strilsers-Po-

Derby, ,Conn., May 1.-Two demon- strations of serious nature occurred to-day incidental to the strike of the textile workers at Uaugasset mills of the A. Fl. & c. B. filling company which was started eight weeks ago by a reduction of wages for flnishers and loopers.
 At noon to-day Mrs Griff1ths, an old employe of the mill, who has recently been teaching the trade to some girls who have taken the places of strikers, was set upon by mob of several hun- dred girls and women, led as 1t hap pened by two of Mrs. Griffiths' own sis- ters, and was followed through the city to her home amid cries of ''scab" and tcoting horns. On the way Mrs. Grif- fiths had a personal encounter with one of the women.
 At the noon hour some of the strik- CTS went to the boarding house of one of the foremen of the mill and egged the front door and windows.
