passing years have little effect upon the chances
of the widow
In addition to this sheep-like propensity on the
part of the man. the widow has an even stronger
weapon in her knowledge of men and affairs.
She has naturally seen more of the world than
the young girl and this breadth of experience
has widened her sympathies. She can enter
much more easily into a mans plans, hopes and
fears, and can talk intelligenty about those
subjects which likely to interest him most.
He is not so likely to have his favorite business
anecdotes or pet financial schemes met with a
stare of blank bewilderment, nor he is so likely
to have his sacrifices on the shrine of courtship
taken as the merest matter of course. The wild
ow's experience has taught her to meet men on
their own ground; to listen with real sympathy
and appreciation to news of the office, or to the
rise and fall of stocks.
The widow does not make the fatal mistake of
Los Angeles herald., 1906-08-12

being too enthusiastic over something she does
not understand. The girl who calculates "How
sweet of theml" when told that the insurance
company has agreed to cover the recent loss by
fire is likely to miss her point if that point is to
hold the interest of the proprietor of the burned
mill. The widow never makes such mistake,
nor does she commit the equally fatal error of
using one adjective throughout her entire con-
versation. "How lovely, how utterly lovely of
you; oh, if that won't be too lovely for words!"
rank among the mistakes of the young girl.
Nor does the widow expect too much. Even if
she did happen to have toothache the previous
evening she does not expect the house to be bonn
barded before breakfast with throng Of tele-
graph and special delivery message boys bearing
anxious inquiries as to the state of her health.
On the contrary, she is not so very much sur
prised it, when she meets ''the man" next even
ing he has forgotten all about it. She knew he

was sorry for her at the time-she knows that
he argues that since he sees her now she must
be better-and she wisely lets well enough alone.
The widow is not nearly likely to be jeal-
ous-or rather, to show it. She knows that un-
less she gives a man plenty of rope he is very
apt to take it in spite of her, and she wisely
concludes the former is the dignifed course.
So she laughs as she encourages him to "go and
talk to Miss Smythe; she is dying to have man
to talk to-" and he does SO with i'll grace, and
gets back to the widows side as he pos
sibly can, vowing that all other women bore him.
Nor is the widow exacting as regards letter
writing "Write if you feel like it, is all she
ever asks, and SO wins hands down when COM

A RARE TREASURE.
1t is only that rare treasure, the domestic girl
who keeps house nowadays. Che does it because
she likes it, which is certainly remarkable phe.
nomenon in woman of the present day.
The domestic girl has always had leaning to-
wards housework ever since she was baby. As
little tot, she has begged her mother to let her
run the sweeper over the floor; she has taken
great delight in making clothes for her doll, and
she has hung around the kitchen poking her nose
into mysterious dishes and pleading with cook
to let her taste the CAKE at various stages of its
development, until finally the patience of the
good woman has been exhausted and the intrud-

She has worried her mother to death by ex-

masters, and then, without any par
ticular reason, be discontinued only again to be
resurrected several years afterwards.
An excellent illustration of how an opening
may be fashionable at time and frowned
down upon afterwards is the Ponziani opening
to wit: 1 P-K4; P-K4; 2 KKtB3; QKt-B3;
P-QB3. Major Janeisch, Russian officer in
his work on chess, published in 1912 (which, by
the way, was and is today an exceptionally able
book, says of this opening "This is toler-
ably good attack" And Howard Staunton in
1s4s remarked: '1t deserves and, if we mis-
take not, will yet attain higher place in the
category of legitimate openings than has hitherto
been assigned to it," and some years later the
same authority remarked, 'The opening has been
grudgingy admitted into favor, but another quar-
ter of century may be required TO enable 1t to
take the rank it deserves among our best
debutes."
1t was not until the sixth American Chess
Congress that the game really became popular.
NJ Tchigorin, having carefully worked up the
main variations, played the opening in that tour
nament with marked success. After that the
game was widely played until W. Steinitz, in
his Modern Chess Instructor, published an analy-
sis, of which we give the main variation in a
note to the following game, claiming that he had
demolished the strength of the attack. After
that the opening was again almost entirely aban'
doned. We fail, however, to see any good rea'
son for thus discarding the opening, and believe
that any frat class chess player who will care
fully study up the main lines of play can use IL
with success in any modern tournament.
The following game illustrates one of the varia,
tions. 1t was played comparatively recently by
Tchigorin during a visit to the Moscow Chess
Club;
Los Angeles herald., 1906-08-12

She takes a particular pride in keeping the
house clean. The third floor is kept Just as spot
less and neat as the front hallway and her kitch-
en- looks like drawing room. She has long ago
discarded the stove for gas range, not only
because the latter is cheaper for a private fam
lily, but also because it is cleaner. In summer
her spotless airy kitchen is the most pleasant
room in the house.
She is never slovenly in her appearance, as
many servant girls are, but while doing the
work of servant, contrives always to look the
lady. Her hair is always neatly arranged and
she is never without her collar or belt
While cooking she wears a long apron, with
sleeves, that covers her completely from her
neck to her feet. When she is ready to serve
the meal she takes it off, discovering the fetch
ing, stylish little dress.
She has not been made serious before her time
by the higher education, nor grown melancholy
and self-assertive by brooding over Che emancpa-
ton of woman.
As matter of fact, she probably hasn't any
idea beyond her house. Her collegebred sister
sneers at her, saying, "She hasn't any mind,
while her sister with the big income gained by
her own exertions says disparagingly, She Ii
never be able to earn a penny"
The former verdict is too severe; but the sec
ond is probably true But then it must be taken
into consideration that she is not the sort of wo-
man who will ever be obliged to work. There
is generally some man to be found who is glad
to have her in his home, for girl with domestic
inclinatons is very rare in these degenerate days
Her father says that he hopes she Will never
marry, because he doesn't know what he should
do without her. But he realizes that the chances
for the fulfllment of his desire very slim In
deed.

Her next venture is to the kitchen. There she
pores over the cook book to the neglect of her

range and the capacity of the oven.
Then one day she turns out pie Extremely
proud of herself she places it ostentatously on
the table in front of her mother. Then what is

She is not discouraged, however, but resolves
not to be SO ambitious for a while. She keeps
at it, in spite of many inevitable failures, until
finally father pronounces her the best cook they
have had.
At that she begs him to discharge the cook,
and to let her give up school and do the cooking.

parachute and landed about two miles and a

Her mother is naturally Mortified and declares
that it would be sin to take her from school.
But father silences her by saying that school
doesn't do women any good anyhow; that Caesar
won't help her to keep house, and finally, that If
his little girl wants to stay at home and do the
cooking why, she can.
With this event new era in her life begins.
Little by little, the household affairs are given
over into her hands entirely She handles the
money for an the household expenses. She does
the marketing, she pays the rent, and she dick
ers with all the tradesmen.
She not only makes all her own clothes, but
those of the rest of the family as well. She
trims her hats SO artsticaly and becomingly that
her friends ask her why she doesn't go into the
business
She washes and irons so beautifully that the
family soon dispense with washwoman. She
gets girl in to help her on Mondays with the
washing but she is SO particular ABOUT the iron
ing that no matter how tired she gets, she won't
let anybody do it but herself.
