PRESENT DAY HANDWRITING.

The handwriting OF young ladies
has changed very considerably since
the time of their grandmothers. Then
the writing master formed part of
their educational equipment, and a
beautiful flowing Italian hand, legi-
BILE even in old and faded letters, was
consistently aimed at.
l do not think women are taught
to write at all in the present day at
any rate, if they are, they are not
taught to hold their pens. Instead
of graceful, easy position of the pen
resting on the second finger, and held
between the first finger and the thumb,
the girl now boldly grasps the pen
much as German does his fork, like
an implement of force, and scrawls
backward with difficulty, and slowly.
This is supposed to give character to
the handwriting. 1t certainly looks
very clumsy, and the backward style
of handwriting does not show charac-
ter, as it is entirely artificial. How
ever, thanks to the typewriter, short
hand, and the telephone, suppose
no one will write at all in the coming
by and by, and the beautiful cali
graphy, as clear as print, so much
priced by scholars in the old monas-
teries, will become tradition OF the
dark ages.

THE OLDEST PROPOSAL.

Recently the Topeka Mail and
Breeze offered prize for the oldest
instance of popping the question
The prize was won by Mrs. Fannie
R. Bevard, of Abilene. She locates
her story in a Western Kansas settle
ment. A large family lived in very
small house. In one corner of the
single room the old folks had their
bed, and above it was swinging bed
attached to the rafters that was oc-
cupied by the boys. Mrs. Bevard
completes the story as follows:
"On this particular evening a
neighbor's girl, who was also the
oldest boys sweetheart, was there
visiting the girls, and she stayed all
night with them. With games and
songs and lots of laughing and talk
ing the evening soon passed and bed.
time came.
miss Jessie being their company,
the girls gave her the front ofthe bed,
and there was one small girl who slept
with the older girls and Jessie.
"The boys went to bed above, and,
of course, the oldest slept on the front
side. Soon all were quiet, and the
anxious lover, supposing all, or near
ly all, in slumber, struck his head out
over his berth and whispered loud
enough for her to hear: Jessie are
you asleep?'
NO, was the whispered an
swer.
will you be mad, Jessie, if ask
you something
Jessie, guessing what he wanted
to say, answered again, telling him
to be quiet, for Tillie, his little sister,
was awake.
"But the anxious lover didn't hear,
and, not waiting to find out whether
his lady love would be mad or not,
asked Will you marry me ?'
"And, fearing that he would awake
all the house if not assured, Jessie
answered, Yes even if some little
ears were listening"

TOwsON MD, SATURDAY, MAY ~ 1905

the "Ozark Lead and Zinc Mines" to
point on the Mississippi river some
twelve miles beyond Pineyville Gen.
ire.
The nearest route, according to
survey, lay directly across one side
of Amaranth's estate, aud she readily
accepted the offer of two hundred
dollars from the mining company for
this small portion of her "wornout"
farm land.
But the tide of prosperity did not
stop here.
Roger Alden, the young surveyor,
who had laid out the new railroad,
suggested Pineyville Centre as the
most convenient point for the smelt-
ing works to be erected by the min
ing company.
And SO the sleepy little village wax
ed up one fine morning to find itself
in the midst of most unexpected
boom.
Amaranth, though offered a high
price, refused to part with her pro-
perty on any terms. By the advice
of the young surveyor, however, she
was induced to lay out portion OF
hear farm, front on the railroad, 10
town lots, which were eagerly pur-
chased at a satisfactory valuation, and
the Brooke addition" soon ranked
as the most desirable residence section
Of Pineyville Centre.
And Amaranth found herself, ifnot
wealthy, at least comfortably situ-
ated.
A stout hired farm hand attended
to the farm work now. The wornout
meadows and corn6eld were redeem
ed from their impoverished condition.
The antiquated cow was supplanted
by small herd of Jerseys. The de-
crepit horse was "pensioned off, on
the fattest of pastures, while a span
of matched bays" drew the new
carryall when. Amaranth or Mrs.
Reuben and her children took an
airing.
The discounted relatives, who had
all but boycotted Amaranth in the
dark days, now discovered that "blood
was thicker than water" and hasten
ed to make friendly overtures.
And Sylvester Smalley, who had
not yet succeeded in building on the
paternal forty acres, abruptly ceased
his attentions to Nancy Maria, and
cast longing eyes towards the thrifty
cornfelds and well-f1led barns of the
old homestead.
Long since he had repented of his
short-sightedness and after skillful
manoeuvreing he one day succeeded
in meeting Amaranth face to face at
the old stile.
"she'd rose in her bonnet, and Oh she looked
AS the little pink flower thatgrows in the wheat,
and Sylvester felt that he must win
her at all hazards.
He advanced smiling and with out
stretched hands.
"Did you really think I meant to
give you up, Amaranth :" he asked
reproachfully.
But she drew coldly back.
'Give me up?" Certainly? You
gave ME up long ago." she returned.
"But / didn't mean it IL own
1 was a fool, Amaranth," he STAN
mered, desperately, "but I allus in
tended to come back and marry you.
An 'tain't too late yet. Only name
the day, an I'm yours"
But Amaranth smiled as she glanc-
ed beyond him to tall figure which
was rapidly approaching them.
Every much obliged, I'm sure, !"
she replied, demurely, ''but / have
promised to be Roger Alden's wife,
and the day is already named. Here
comes Roger now. Will you stay
and be introduced? 2"

Sylvester slunk away.-Nev York

THE MODERN WOMAN.

Tell it not in Gath, but the modern
woman is donning half hose.
For quite spell she has affected
them as part of her negligee costume
before starting out in the morning.
Many of the smart shops are display
ing them in pretty light shades to
wear with the new pumps for street
wear.
To obviate the trouble previously
so annoying caused by their slipping
down about the ankles they come
with a strong webbing finish at the
top, which fits snugly above the calf,
provided there is calf, with no
danger of wrinkling disagreeably
about the instep.
Whether these articles of wearing
apparel borrowed from man will be
popular or not remains to be seen.
At any rate they are to be had in the
sheerest. Isle as we'll as silk. Some
of them bear embroidered sprigs over
their surface, enhancing their beauty.
A MISSOURI paper says that new
Judge arose to charge the jury, and
spoke as follows: Gentlemen OF the
Jury, charging jury is a new busi-
ness to me, as this is my first case.
You have heard all the evidence as
well as myself. You have heard what
a. 1aorcad co,,nce1 have said. If
YOU believe what the counsel for the
plaintiff have told you, your verdict
would be for plaintiff ; but if, on the
other hand, you believe what the de-
fendant's counsel has told you, then
you will find verdict for the defen.
dant; but if you were like me, and
don't believe what either of them
said, then TIL be id if I know
what you'll do. Constable, take

AtpLEA TO PARENTS.
Picture of Young Girls Abroad at
Niqht Without Lhaperon.

Fathers and Mothers: If you have a
young daughter this picture-which is
no fancy one-is for you, says writer
in the Syracuse Journal. 1t is long
after curfew. Oggling men lean on
sidewalk ratings and wait at street
corners. There they come down the
street arm in arm-two young girls
with fresh, rosy faces. Abundant
braids of hair fall down their backs.
Natty little gowns come to the shoe
tops. They are schoolgirls and in their
early teens.
There is no chaperon and no escort.
The girls are out alone and the hour is
rather late. Young men and the girls
are strangers to one another, and yet
there is some sort of free-masonry be-
tween them. The glances Of the young
men are bold. The eyes of the girls are
not timid as they turn them backward
with, the hint of a smile. Flippant
words are exchanged.
But what can one do? If their natur-
al guardian is not there to protect,
what right have you to interfere? Here
and there may be found brave spirit
whom great pity will move to stay
and warn, and take the risk, but good
Samaritans are few. And SO young
girls infant women with fine passions
and powers Of womanhood- thinking to
tread the primrose path of dalliance, go
down to ruin.
Whose fault is it? Is it the fault of
the girls? Who sent them out into the
night or permitted them to go unpro-
tected? Who failed or neglected to
warn them of temptation? Who sup
posed when they had dressed their girl
as wellas the neighbor girls their duty
was done?
There is only one answer to these
questions and mother.

THE FRUIT CROP.
Snow May Have Saved Roots OF
the Peach Trees.

The snow which covers the ground
and protects the roots of trees from the
atmosphere may be the salvation of the
fruit crop this year. While all the
trees are not subject to harm on ac-
count of cold, the peach trees in south
ern Iowa are liable to suffer.
Six years ago the weather was even
worse than this year. Director J. r.
Sage remembers that the peach trees
showed the effects of the cold. But
this year it is possible, he says, that the
snow will suffice to make the damage
much less than it might otherwise be.
"The danger lies in the trees freez-
ing," says Mr.. Sage. "Apple and cherry
trees in this section of the state may be
hurt by the cold. 1t is difficult to tell
just what the effect will be SO far as
roots are concerned. One man tells me
that when the roots are protected by
snow the sap is more lively, the trunks
better fed and kept greener, and conse-
auently more likely to freeze. But the
cold weather six years ago came at a
time when the ground was bare, and
believe that much of the subsequent
harm was due to that fact"

FIGHT FOR OFFICE.
Old Soldiers Preference Law may
be Tested in Wapello County
District Court.

Mandamus proceedings to compel the
Wapello county board of supervisors to
appoint an old soldier in the position
of overseer Of the poor now held by G.
A. Hyatt, will probably soon be institu-
in the district court.
Incidentally the proceedings will form
a test for the validity and constitutions
ally of the soldiers preference law
passed by the Thirtieth general assem-
bly,.
Henry Wagers and M. S. Kelsie, both
old soldiers, were applicants before the
board for the position of overseer of
the poor. G. A. Hyatt, the holder of
the office for several years past, was re-
appointed for the ensuing year.
The action of the board in making this
appointment was declared by both Mr..
Wagers and Mr.. Kelsie as being in di-
rect violation of the law passed by the
last assembly. This law in short is to
the effect that qualifications for Office
being equal, the old soldier, being an
applicant, shall receive the appointment
in preference to the man who has not
served his country as soldier.
Kelsie and Wagers filed joint com
munication with the board demanding
that Hyatt be removed from the office
and that one or the other of them be
given the place in compliance with the
provisions of the law. The demand was
considered by the board on Saturday
and no action was taken on the matter.
1t is stated that no action is likely to
be taken on the demand on the ground
that the board has made the appoint
ment which it saw fit to make and which
was considered to the best interests of
the Office.
The next step in the matter and one
which Seneca Cornell, who is acting
as attorney for Messrs. Wagers and
Kelsie states will probably be taken,
will be the institution of mandamus pro-
ceedings in the district court to compel
the board to remove Mr.. Hyatt and APP
point one Or the other petitioners. The
matter will probably come up for set
