A MONUMENT FOR MARY ROGERS.
There il no accounting for human
tastes, 20 there was little surprise when
announcement was made some time since
that monument which might be set
up on the grave 81 Mary Rogers was
being chiseled out Of Barre granite. But
while the news caused no surprise, ii
has raised storm Of disapproval since
the statement was made that the nonu-
ment was to be erected by Others than
the relatives Of the woman. II must be
confessed that If the monument is to be
erected that It would much better be
paid by relatives Of the deceased, but
ii it SO happens that these relatives are
not in position to make the outlay, there
seems TO be nothing to hinder someone
else doing 50. why shouldn't monu-
ment be erected above the grave OF this
woman, barring, Of course, any allusion
to the great and unfortunate event Of
her life and barring also any reference
to the manner Of her own deathl There
seems to be no powerful reason why that
should not be done, and if any persons,
ont Of kindness Of their hearts (not
through maudlin sentimentality) desire
to be the donors, the general public
should not be exercised over the matter,
We win admit that sickly sentiment
traced on the stone would be out Of
place. Otherwise let the unknown donor
proceed.

Don't marry fop!" remarks a
magazine supposed to elevate the taste
of young women and sharpen their
wits as far as matters matrimonial
are concerned.
But I have something to say for the
opposite side of the question. Girls,
don't marry a man who is sloppy in
his appearance, or you will suffer even
worse than if you married a fop. The
tendency Of great many men is to
be careless of their clothes. If there
is anything maddening to a proud,
well dressed woman it is to see her
husband shabbily dressed, with an in
different tie and unpublished boots. She
is positively ashamed to go out on
the street with him. No amount of
nagging will make a man who is fond
of what he calls "his comfort change.
He doesn't realize how his appearance
spoils his chances of success.
So, girls, If you want to be on the
safe side, pick out a man who thinks
something Of his appearance, even if
there are people narrow minded
enough to call him fop
