CHAPTER XVIII.

Sunday at Mallingford Park. The
house was full of visitors. Small attics
on the top story which had never been
slept in since the great doings of thirty
nine years before, when the late Sir
Paul came Of age, were all occupied
now, for Lord Summers having express
ed a wish that Miss Mallings majority
should be marked by fitting festivities,
that lady had thrown herself heartily
into the project.
1t was a close, sitting day, and there
was a faint, white mist on the park
lands, and an intense stiffness in the air.
which proved very trying to the majority
of Miss Malling's guests after luncheon.
They sauntered out of the reception
rooms by twos and threes, and sought
the quiet Of their own apartments until
the ground floor looked quite deserted

To OutWit Woman.

All is q plain fnanciering with
the trustees of the Carnegie pension
fund for worn-out college professors
Some intensely human problems must
be dealt with.
According to a dispatch from New
Orleans, the trustees recently had a
lively discussion as to the precautions
that Should be taken lest ancient pro
fessors be lured into marriage by young
women with a keen eye to their eorly
denise and q keener che for the sub
sesYient receipt during lire of half the
professors allotment from the fuui.
The question was raised by President
Hadley, of Yale. after it had been de-
Gided to make this provision for pro
IeSOsr's widows.
And it proved to be a question be-
force which these Iearned men. mas"
ters of the sciences, literature and arts,
were utterly helpless.
For who can Outwit a designing
young with a keen eye for aE
old college professor and his pension
who, unless it 10 be the old processes
himself?
If it be admitted that he Is without
neal of defense of his VIA, then kls
case is indeed hopeless.
Among the ~preventives proposed vas
to thOt to cur the pension the widow
must have been married to the proxies
o ten years p1lOr to his death.
Another was that the widow must be
at least forty years old.
Half a day was taken up in the dis
cussion, but nothing came of it.
All this is based ON the assumption
that young women could and woul
marry old professors for the sake p
coming into a microscopic income a +
ter an indefinite period of what uld 2;
the circumstances would be to the u
most wearisOme association.
That they must be admitte ID
for professors are but men, and, as {
rule perhaps any woman can ma =,
any man for whose ensnarement she . i:
willing to take a lot Of trouble.
But that they would isdoubrful. Fo1
