GLOBE SIGHTS.
fFrom the Atcbison Globe.1

EF'rom the Atchison Globe.1
When a rich man falls III love. the
storekeepers count on selling him any
thing.
When a Kansan hears a girl talk of a
life being blighted, he wants to know
if it was drought or flood.
Graduates talk of being turned out on
a cold world at the period when 1t is
just beginning to be a warm one.
No theatrical performance exactly
pleases a woman, unless she is given
plenty Of opportunity to wipe her eyes
If you are of a more grateful DISPOSE
ton than your neighbor, don't take
credit to yourself: 1t may be that you
are older
Girls, If familiarity with a lever
breeds contempt, the sooner you find 1t
out, the better You are a long time
married and dead.
Whenever we see a funeral process
sion go BY with its attendant sadness.
we try to imagine 10000 in St Pierre.
and find we are growing dizzy.
When a woman marries a man named
Smith or Jones. she tries to rise above
her environments by naming her chill
dren Gabrielle, or De Mounteville.
When a woman gets a yard of lace at
a dry goods store. it means one trip
back to change it, a trip to match what
she changed, and a fourth trip to get
more.
IniS IS the season when Our enjoy
ment in watching girls out for walk
is spoiled by their frantic efforts to feel
if their shirtWaists and skirts meet in
the back.
This world is so unsatisfactory that
girl has many opportunities for look
ing reproachfully at her father, and
later, for looking the same way at her
husband.
After every meal in a certain Atchi-
son family, the members expsnd enough
energy in quarreling over who shall
wash the dishes, to accomplish the work
If a man adopts a protective air with
girl in lifting a sunshade for her, she
feels that it would be nice to have a
man take such good care Of one all
through life.

in the A o. U. W. division are expected
to be in line on West Seventh street right
resting on Quincy at 2.30 p. m, it would
seem that o'clock would be early enough
to assemble at the lodge rooms, and any
who are unable to get to the lodge rooms
at that time could go direct to Seventh
