TO REGULATE THE MARRIED
 MAN.

Tn these days the legislatures fake
 up novel problems, as well as fx the size of hotel sheets. The Illinois legislature has before 1t a bill intend cd to give distinct title to married men as means of preventing their palming themselves off upon unsus- pecting women as being single. State Senator Ettleson, who is the cham pion of this bill, has been approached by number of unmarried women. Wno say that married men are con- stantly imposing upon them, because 1t is impossible from a plain intro auction of Mister to tell whether they are married or not. "The mar Iied man ought to be segregated" he said. "An unmarried woman is sMiss'; married woman Mrs. That arrangement is highly satisfactory. It Is calculated to promote harmony between the sexes. Now. if the thing works one way, why won't it work the other? Let us make it a felony for married man to use the bachelors title. The change will be for the good of society. It will be a bulwark for the home. It will protect susceptible unmarried ladies. It will abolish at one blow all the married hirts."
 If it only would do this, it would be the greatest law ever devised. but since there Is no way 10 prevent a Mrs" from taking in @ single man. how could a special title interfere with the rascally pretence of "a married man? Special titles will not do 1t.

THE MAN WHO IALKS

Few seem to know that pr. Diet, pr. Quiet. and pr. Merryman have been considered the three best physicians since the days of Ecclesiasticus; and where a council of physicians is nee essary they sit together in harmony and work wonders. They never issue any prescriptions in Latin, or prescribe nauseating medicines. Just as soon as they lay their hands on a patient he is a different man. Diet promotes Quiet and both make many Merry. These doctors are as closely allied as triplets-they are naturally involved in keeping man right. They preach that "a little care and a little sense will keep a man from a lot of trouble" They have no diploma or endorsement of the schools, but they are known by their good works.
