turks in the brain Of the average Washing
tonian.
Sknlful artists from New York will draw
cartoons aud pictures Of such extreme merit
as to cause our local artists 70 weep in des-
pair at their own impotency. Then, too,
we will have the wonderful magazine
features which form such an intellectual
part of the New York papers. Mr. Muusey
scorns the local talent His force must be
metropolitan from Office cat to cub reporter.
In his usual modestly strenuous way he has
invited comparison and has made predic'
dous. We will see what we shall see

There will be a change made in woman's
dress soon Another fashion will loom up
TO displace the present tight skirt The
novelty Of that garment, with its display of
the female form, has worn off Giddy
girls and vain old women no longer draw
them skin tight around their forms with
the untiring effort as Of yore. Time was
when no woman ever dropped her skirt.
She pulled il around her hips aud held
il there with her hand the whole day long.
Alas for vanity they have grown careless
and indifferent The spectacle Of 100
pounds of female flesh enveloped in a skin
fitting skirt is no longer effective. Men
have become inoculated and the fashion is
passe. Something must be substituted
quickly or fair woman will fade into OBJ
scurity and no notice will be taken of her
in her promeuades in Department Lane
They say that there are not enough men
in society to 60 around. The expression on
the face of the conventional society dame
or maid would suggest that man was an
undesired beast Appearances are deceit
full
Judging from the number of girls who
marry old men it would seem that youth is
scarce among the people with the dough
Il must be awful tiresome to a frail girl to
combine the duties Of wife and a trained
nurse.
The older man gets, it seems the younger
he desires his consort. A young woman
married to an old man offers wonderful
opportunities to Don Juau-and the divorce
court.
IF / we're as ugly as some women who ride
in carriages, dressed in all the iridescent
hues of the butterfly. methiuks / would don

Eve offered Adam the apple and he-bit
it, Then she nagged him about it and
threw it up to lifu again and again. The same
/ old apple is offered every day by a smile,
/ a bonnet a bow, alook OF a word We fools
/ of men bite it. No sooner have we tasted
| the fruit than we are reviled, denounced
and perhaps soundly pummeled or killed
Women affect not to care for US. God
bless them. Every charm they have was
given them by wise Greater to ensnare
and bewitch us They are for US and VIC
for them insane prudery to the contrary
Notwithstanding.
