"Miss," or "Mrs.7"


A number of unmarried English
women, who have reached an age
about which it would be ungenerous to
inquire too closely, have been COM
all married women shall be called
Mrs" and all unmarried women
Miss" no matter what their ages may
be. They point out the fact that a
boy, who is Master" in his early life,
becomes Mr." by the mere lapse Of
time, whether he marries or not; but
that girl who begins as Miss con-
tinues to be Miss" until she marries.
This was not always the case, as the
curious may discover by looking up
the history of Miss" Mrs" and
Mistress" The English women main
tain that the title by which they are
called, as spinsters, is not conducive
to the Difference which is accorded to
married women, and which they de-
mand for themselves. The remedy
they propose-that all women be
called Mrs" after reaching the age of
40-would be of doubtful efficacy.
Men would go on calling their women
acquaintances Miss" until they re-
ceived what the newspapers call "ofii-
cial' notice that the age limit was
passed. The old "darky" woman
stated fact of general application,
says Youths Companion, when she
said that the happiest person is an old
maid when she has quit strugglin'.' y
The woman who cares whether she
is called Miss" or Mrs" when her
hair is turning, is still "strugglin'."

The pope recently entertained the
members of the Sacred college with
the recital of how a certain gold coin
had been given to him as jubilee gift
by the diocese of Acqui. This coin
was discovered in 1898, while excava-
tionY were being made for the founda-
ton Of new church at Acqui. Upon
examination it was found to be the
only coin in existence of the period
Of Ianocent TX. The diocese of Acaui
was unable to pay the architect who
had drawn the plans for the new
church, SO 1t gave him the coin with
the understanding that If he sold it
for more than $1,000, the amount of
his bill, the surplus should be returned
to the diocese. Later the clergy col
lected the $1,000, bought the coin, and
presented it to the pope. This coin
was the only one lacking to complete
the Vatican collection of coins issued
under all the popes.

Scenic Railway Accident.

Denver.-Seventeen persons were

trainload of sixteen persons in
two cars were thrown from a

The state department of agriculture
has taken a step which may help to
solve the problem of adjusting the
matter of labor for farms and at the
same time put dwellers in the city in

health, says the Troy IN. " Times.
The department has issued a bulletin
asking for volunteers from boys and
girls in high schools who wish en-

the idea is not wholly repellent to the
youthful element is shown by the fact
that there are already over $500 ap.

the occupations suggested. Who knows
but the high school boy of the pres

What, then, is the cry of the children
to us? More conscience as to the things we
eat and wear ;'more scruples, not only as to
how we win but as to how we utilize our
prosperity; more togetherness; co-opcra-

BY all means, a woman president of
the United States. Of course, the ideal
government would be that in which a man
and woman ruled jointly. A coadjutor
woman president would have been of great
assistance to any man that has ever filled
