Various Types of Women.

1T takes all kinds of women to
make up world, observed the Com
muter. How superficial is he who
classes all women as Women Just
as he says, cats or 'geese'-as II by
virtue of their sex they all had the
same traits, habits, characteristics
and effect! There is more resem-
blance between men of a certain type
and women than there is between
two different types of women.
See the jolly girl over there-the
girl with the firm rounded chin and
the sensible nose and the wide-open
way of laughing. Not a bit pretty,
is she? But so frankly good hui
mored and unaffected that she'll
keep those two men interested all the
way into town. Hasn't she the most
delightful way of thrusting out her
chin, and narrowing her eyes, and
wrinkling up her face when she
laughs? She has charm, that's what
she has. If she weren't so sweet
tempered and jolly she would be
homely.
"On ahead there is an awfully Sc
rious girl. She has the knotty fore
head of profound thinker. Does
she ever laugh. wonder? | can i'm
agine an icy smile blowing frigidly
about her lips upon proper occasions.
I'll bet she converses in Sanskrit, and
teaches slum children for diversion.
"A distinctly third type of woman
Is the girl opposite. Pretty, isn't she? ?
Or would be If some one came
along to wake her up. Too timid
and retrospective. Much effort might
induce her to blossom into fun and
happiness. But you can't imagine
her forgetting herself so completely
as to make other people laugh, can
you? - like our jolly friend there
with the firm, rounded chin.
Now, what in common have any
of them with the next woman-that
female of fifty summers and over.
with dangle earrings and simpering
mouth, and false hair, done up in
style too youthful by forty years?
Never, II those other girls live to a
hundred years could they grow to
bear even the faintest resemblance to
that!
"The fifth and last woman. Well,
IL you don't believe she's different,
watch her when she gets out. Those
little shifting eyes and receding chin,
and pugnacious nose, and tight-set
lips mean trouble. First time ever
saw her she was raising a row in a
restaurant. She's the kind. Carries
chip on her shoulder-has a tre-
mendous sense of her own impor-
tance, and is always watching out to
see that nobody disputes it.
When the train stops the timid
girl will sit still till the cars empty;
the girl with the knobby forehead
will quietly slip into line and go out
with the procession; the sentimental
spinster will smirk all around wait
ing for some man to give place to
her; the jolly girl will go out care
fully shielded from the crush be-
tween her two friends, and still
laughing.
But the pugnacious woman, with
shifty eyes and aggressive nose. will
be on her feet before the train stops,
and push and bruise and beat and
batter her way to the door, treading
belligerently on toes, and dealing an
cry scowls right and left as she goes.
And yet you say 'Women!' as II
they were all alike" sighed the Com
muter. These are only five types.
And there are just as many more
millions types as there are women in
the world. d."-Philadelphia Bulletin.

Reminders In the Foal and the Calf Of

1t is an interesting study to note In

for this reason they give a fair idea of

take the foal and compare his traits
with those of the calf.

gallop as fast as he ever can in af.e-
life. He never leaves the dam and
takes nourishment In small quantities,

tt Gats Its Name From the Cutting,
Ss Not From the Stone. M
!. The true nature of cameo Is very
much misunderstood by the public gen.
orally. Most people think It Is the stone
itself, when in reality the method Of
cutting is what produces the cameo.
The real meaning of the word Is I'M
known, it's derivation having never
been discovered; but, correctly speak
ing, canoes are small sculptures exc
cuted in low relief on some substance
precious either for its beauty, rarity or
hardness. ,5E% @
There are emerald canoes, turquoise
canoes, shell canoes, coral canoes.
Indeed. any substance that lends itself
to carving in such minute detail can
be used for cameo cutting, and nearly
all precious stones, except diamonds
have been so used for intaglios, but
never for canoes. Emerald is the most
common precious stone from which
canoes have been made, and there are
some very fine emerald portrait cam
eos in existence, notably those Of
Queen Elizabeth in the British muse
UNI. She'll canoes were first made IL
the fifteenth century. u
Banded onyx Is generally used fol
cameo work because of its hardness
and coloring, and It Is this fact that has
caused the misrepresentation, the stone
being used so much in making cameo:
that it has now become better known
as "cameo" than by its right name

Curious lnhabitant Of the Forests In
Eastern Australia.
The flying fox is very curious in
habitant Of the forest near Moreton
bay, in east Australia. 1t lives in
f1ocks and moves generally toward the
dusk of the evening, and the noise pro-
duced by the heavy Tapping Of the SO
called wings is very singular. The
flocks like quiet places, where there
are large araucarian pine trees, with
an underwood Of scrub and ,creepers.
The foxes hang in vast numbers from
horizontal branches Of the pine trees.
When there Is clear space among
the trees an enormous number Of the
animals may be seen, and their noise
can be heard, for directly they see any
thing unusual they utter a short bark,
something like the sound made by
young rocks. Often every branch is
crowded, and the young foxes are seen
either tapping their wings and holding
ON with their hind feet and with their
heads downward or snarHng and fight
| ing for places. ~ ~. y. s.-.,. T.: II

TRIBUNE CORRESPONDENT AND
MANDAN a PIONEER FAIL TO

Mandan Pioneer: 1--WE note that
the Mandan items in the Bismarck

the laws Of the state are unjust in
that it permits husband to devise
the homestead away from the wife
subject only to her life estate there
In, and that the law works partic-
Glar injustice in the case of Neil
Edwards who lately died in this
city, and who before he died made
a will devising the homestead away
from his wife, subject to her life
estate.
It appears that all the facts Of
the case are not given in the article
and that it VIII be SHOWN in the will
contest that is now pending in the
county court that Mr.. Edwards, dur
ing his last sickness, was unable to
get anyone to care for him; that he
was turned out in the street and left
in a. dying condition, ano that Mr..
Massingham was the only person
who could be gotten who would take
any care of the dying man.
1t appears that after he had been
left on the street in dying con.
dition Mr.. Massingham took charg.
of him and took him to the Paul
son hotel and that in a couple OF
al Mree MI To-, Sy1Ya Nr,f
of that hotel, and finally the only
place Mr.. Massingham could take
the sick man was to the court
house, to which place he took him
and provided a room there for him
together with nurse and proper
medical attendance. Under these
! circumstances it would seem thai
the law has worked no Injustice al
all, and the provisions of the, will
only partially compensated Mr.. Mas
singham for the care and expense
he was put to in caring for a dying
friend when no one else would helr
him. 2
The article given above, ,taker
from the Mandan l1oneer, probabl.
easKplains itself. The article in ques
sSion does not in any way contro
