An Obliging Caller.

When Monsieur Clemenceau was in
the French Chamber of Deputies, he
became for some reason, the idol of
the working man; but his popularity,
according to the course OF nature,
brought its penalties. He was besieg-
ed by all sorts Of people, who came
merely to ask questions, and sometimes
they were questions of the most trivial
sort.
He was originally doctor, and used
to give advice for nothing at certain
hours Of the day. One morning a
working man entered his room, and
Clemenceau said, without looking up
from his writing:
Take of your coat and shirt. III
attend to you directly"
Three minutes later he found the
man had stripped to the waist
There is nothing the matter with
you" said the doctor, when he had
made an examination.
II know there isn'tw returned the
man.
Then what did you come forf"
40 consult you on a political ques-
ton"
But what did you strip for%'
II thought you wanted an illustca-
ton Of the emaciated body Of the man
who lives by the sweat of his brow"
The political question remained un-
answered. Monsieur Clemenceau was
too eNasperated to do more than tell
the man TO dress and go home.

Women Discuss the Amount of Abuse
Their Sex should Endure.
How much beating should wife
bear before she made up her mind to
leave her husbandT was one OF the
main subjects discussed today at the
womens conference Of the ln-his-
Name Society in All Souls Church, ut
Madison avenue and seth street. In
the opinion of Mrs. Louise seymour
Houghton. editor of Il religious news
paper the wife should submit rather
than leave her husband to be ut the
mercy of bad influences.
Mrs. Hougton said that although
there were times in the present state
of society when n divorce seemed ncces-
sary, Il higher and more ideal state
would make such a thing Impossible.
She called attention to the stormy do
nestle life of the prophet Hosea, IN
order to show to what extent one part
ner should bear with the indiscretions
and the sins OF the other.
The sentiments produced IL sensation,
and there was Il murmur of dissent
One OF those present asked IL the
woman injured by an intoxicated nus
band should remain with him. Mrs.
Houghton said that she had known
many noble wives and mothers whose
husbands had beaten them every Satur-
day night. The speaker said that 1t
would be better for the family If the
injured wife had the grace and the
strength of mind, and, above all, the
love for her husband. to hold to her
family relations.
Mrs Elizabeth b. Grannis suggested
that such treatment of wife on the
part of husband was degrading to the
marriage relation. Mrs Houghton am
swered that one soul could not degrade
another without that souls consent.
She said that she had known in the
lower walks of life of husbands who
had beaten and ill-treated their wives,
and that, after all, they had come
around all right; whereas. If the wives
had left their lords and masters, the
men might have gone irretrieyably to
the bad.
What wish to ask" said Mrs. Ar
thur Smith, "is, how long should a wife
submit to beating before she leaves her
husbandT
Mrs. Houghton, II understand her
correctly" replied Mrs. Grannis, said
there was no limit. Now, there was

head 1t seems to me that II would have
