IBSEN's BUTTON SEWING.
A Job He Wouldn't Trust Any Won
an to Do.

From the New York Sun.
Some amusing anecdotes Of Ibsen have
Just been published by the Norwegian
writer, John Paulsen, who was on intimate
terms with him for many years. One OF
his stories he prefaces with the remark
that however much the dramatist upheid
the rights of women, he by no means con-
sidered them superior to men In any hne'
in fact he considered them inferior IN many
spheres in which the world In general puts
them ahead. One of his maxims was:
mo woman could write cook book and
no woman could sew button on fast
He lived up to the latter part of his die
tum. When he detected a loose button on
any of his garments he retreateo TO MS
own den locked himself In, and with elap-
ate preparations sewed the button on.
He took at much palms with IT as ne
would with the final, fair copy of one OF
his plays Then he used to brag about the
performance saying that he Woulon put
trust in a button sewn on by any woman
not even by his wife.
His wife used to laugh with a quietly
ironical expression on these occasions. she
confided to Paulsen that she secretly re,
sewed all the buttons that the poet had
sewn seWed them good and tight, as only
a woman can, she said, explaining that ne
always forgot to fasten the thread, and
the buttons would come off In Few DAYS
If she did not look after them
wife added appealingly; lit makes MIN
happy to think that he did it,"
So Paulsen remarks there was hidden
lie In the life of the great apostle of frank
ness and truth. One day, in Munich, lbsen
asked Pausen in the most unconcerned
way whether he polished his own shoes In
the morning With feeling Of indiscriba-
Bile guilt, Paulsen confessed that he didn' t..

will feel different man If you do. No man
should let another do for him what he can
do for himself.
begin with polishing your shoes and you
will soon come to keeping your room In
order, even making your own nres. IN
this way you will gradually develop into a
self-reliant man, Independent OF servants
and all other people.
Ibsen was extremely sensitive about any
ones finding out the least hint regarding
any incompleted work that he had In hand
He never revealed a plot, an incident or
scrap Of dialogue until the work was COM
pleted.
scrap Of paper with the words THE doctor
saws upon 1t. She asked her husband
jestingly what the doctor did say and who
he was.
Ibsen went into a paroxysm OF rage. He
declared that he was not safe In his own
house. he was surrounded with spies. All
his ideas were ruined, his plans thrown
awry.
He was only pacified when his wife show
ed him the paper and explained where she
had found it. The play was IAN Evening

to this way show the same confidence that
marks the messenger boys
Here, for instance, was a girl Carrying a
establishment this box with the broad
leather strap around II to keep it, closed
and by which to carry it,
The girls sets this box up on the front

set 1t over himself at the far end of the

so the stranger in the city, not familiar
with Its ways, and the city dweller, as well
not accustomed to carrying things about,
is apt In the street car to keep his bags and
bundles by him and to watch them closely,
but there are many accustomed to the
other way, who can leave things out on the
platform without seeming to worry over
them unduly.

and contests for supremacy wax as ex-

The game is particularly popular
among ladies on account of the small
amount of exertion participation in it
entails and the unlimited opportunity
it offers to display a dainty gown to
the best advantage. Many a woman

THE LOST BALL.

Standing one day on the golf-links,
i was weary and i'll at ease;
And / baffled and fooled idly
over the whins and tees.
I know not what L was dreaming,
Or where / was rubbering then;
But I swiped that ball, OF sudden,
With the force Of two-score men.
1t sped through the crimson twilight
Like a shot from a ten-inch gun;
And it passed from my fevered vision
To the realm of the vanished, sun;
1t chasseed over the bunker,
It caromed hazard and hill;
It went like thing Internal
1 suppose it is going still.
1t shied each perplexing stymie
With infinite nerve and ease;
And bored right on through the land
scape
AS if it were Ioath TO cease.
l have sought-but l seek it vainly-
That ball of the strenuous pace.
That went from the sole of my niblick
And entered into space.
1t may be some blooming caddie
Can sooner or later explain;
It may be than only In heaven
l shall find that ball again.
