HER SHORTCOMINGS
IN CARS.

I'D like to know why it is that
woman can't see an empty seat on
an open car when it's staring her in
the face" said, to the New Orleans
Picayune, a disa greeable man, grump-
Ter than usual under the influence of
the heat. I've had to ride all over
town in the cars good deal this sum-
mer, and I've seen cars delayed time
and again by the apparent stupidity
of women who couldn't find seat.
or course, woman can't travel
along the footboard like a man; but
why, after she has taken plenty of
time to survey a car which is only
half-filled, will she insist on climb
ing into a row where she either has
to stand up until some perspiring
man gives up his seat to her or else
squeeze in whore she has to sit on
the edge?
You can't expect a conductor to
be continually acting as usher, but,
unless he does, most women seem
to lose their heads. I'm not one that
always cracks up the superiority of
my own sex, but in cars the average
man shows sense and the woman
doesn't.
The man will have his seat picked
out before the car stops. He has no
trouble in picking out the empty
spaces in the car. But nine out
of ten women go all to pieces the
minute the car stops. After a woman
has done a few laps alongside the
car looking for an empty seat, it's
dollars to doughnuts that she'll pick
a full one and pass right by one
that's got some room in it.
Seems to me that the street car
companies would confer a great bene-
fit on their male passengers if they'd
employ men to act as ushers for the
women on open cars in the summer,
or else put up movable signs over
empty seats. Then we'd all be happy
and I wouldn't mind the fact that
1 can't own an automobile"

LOOKING FOR WRINKLES.

To a great many women, says the
New York World, the time they de-
vote before the mirror becomes in a
way a period of supreme torture
Whether long or short, this time spent
in peerlng into her glass and search
ing there for signs of age, care or wor-
ry in her face is not only time vast
ed, but put to the worst possible use.
l have in mind a woman of 30-odd in
the hey-day of her beauty who daily
scans her mirror for traces of the first
wrinkle or the first gray hair. The
day when she makes the discovery
and It will be long before any one else
does-will be day of misery for her,
for she firmly believes that youth.
beauty and happiness are bound up in
the preservation of an unlined brow
and raven hair.
Her apprehension is so great and she
worries so that age should take her
unawares that she is really incapable
of fully enjoying her youth and good
looks.
No one can get the best out of life
who lives in constant dread of what
the mirror will reflect. Every woman
wants to be as pretty as possible and
every woman should do all in her pow
err to preserve her charms. But to
make a tyrant of the mirror is to give
I: power and influence which does
not rightly belong to it.
We see in others what we wish TO
see in them, and this is particularly
true of the reflections in the looking
glass.

The predetermined girl, as well as
the serious-minded, is much sought

be as fashionable if it is inexpensive
as If it is costly. If she can tell
how a dinner should be cooked. wheth-
