4 To the intense nature OF the Thoughtful
highly DEVELOPED young woman OF to-day
love Is the most sacred thing In the
world If she loves once. and for any
reason fails Of q return, she cannot US
ually marry. She, turns with her whole
heart to some useful work and gives her
slifeate that. Who says that this Is not
a nobler and better position than that OF
% being who loves one man almost as
well as another and can marry any
body who happens along? Unhappy
homes and poor quality OF children
spring from the loyeess marriages OF
mere convenience which are advocated
so loudly by many who deprecate the
fact that women are getting too parti-
cular. Common men can no longer suit
them. Well, our fine college women arc

Fear Visit from Carrie Nation.

The rumOr that Carrie Nation, de-
stroyer of bar fixtures and smasher of
bottles, was on her way caused excite
ment and dismay at the Subway Tavern,
in New York, when it reached there late
Yesterday morning. Several tattered in
dividuals who were drinking at the bar
gulped down the remainder of their
schooners hurriedly and skunk out of the
place, glancing neryously up and down
the street as they left the doorway. 1t
was said, Furthermore, that one of the
barkeepers, in his excitement, served a
Hannah Elias cocktail by mistake for a
Potter eyeopener. There was much aP-
prehensive speculation in the place at to
what time the terrible Carrie might ar
rive and what she might do to the place.
Some of the customers recalled that on
her first visit to New York Mrs. Nation
visited a saloon in Forty-second street
kept by John l.. Sullivan. Before Mrs.
Nation appeared John l.. bad told his
friends that if she entered his place he
would "T' row her into de sewer" When
the saloon buster appeared, however, it
| is recorded that the great champion fed
