Why is it, asks an exchange, that a
woman can struggle until she is red in
the face and worn out both in temper
and body by window in a railroad
train in her vain endeavors TO close or
open II when all that man has TO do
is TO walk up and go over exactly the
same line Of action that she has already
exhausted, and down comes the refrac-
tory window in jidy? 1t is a most
humiliating fact, but a very true one,
nevertheless, that not FIVE women out
OF dozen ever succeed In arranging Il
window TO their satisfaction. They
pull and tug until they are embarrassed
and finally In pleading manner look
around at some slip Of a man, who
without any nonsense brings about the
desired effect, while the woman looks
on In silent wonder at his marvellous
skill and dexterity.

OYSTER OUTLOOK.

Last Monday was the first day oftong-
ing season. Every year sees fewer boats
go to the rocks. This is the result of
several causes, the prime one being the
growing scarcity of oysters upon the
natural rocks. Another is that a good
many former oystermen are now in the
planting and buying branches of the
business.
The market opened on the lower Rap.
pahannock at 80 cents per bushel, though
there we're few to sell. Oysters are very
poor just at present. They have been so
poor all summer that there has been little
or no spawn. A great deal OF money
was invested this summer In planting
shells, and unless there is September
catch of spat much money will be lost
The Norfolk and Washington mark cts
opened at 60 cents, most of the cargoes
being bought by shocking houses.
