gentle, sincere and, above all,
natural. Watch for an opportunity

UNFAIR TO BOSTON,.

1t is notorious that the ordinary
Englishman knows little or nothing
Of American affairs, yet it might be
supposed that by this time he had
learned enough to distinguish be-
tween Boston and the rest of the
country-suficiently, at least, to rec
ognize the intellectual, moral and
ethical peculiarities of hat famous
center of thought and culture. But
it is not so. The Englishman con-
tinues to speak of the Bostonians
just as if they were ordinary Ameri-
can citizens, guided by the same
principles as others and subject to
the common standards of conduct
which prevail elsewhere; and from
the example Of Boston he draws
conclusions and proceeds to apply
them to the whole country without
any realization of the injury done
to Boston.

IAN THE SUPERIOR ANIMAL
One Coming Voter Who May Be Re
lied on to Work Against Cause
Of Woman Suffrage.

A small drove of immigrants, each
tagged with a red ticket and in
charge of an officer, reached the
Grand Central station of the subway
the other afternoon, says the New
York Tribune. They we're billed
through to some point on the New
York Central road, and had only a
short time to catch the train. The
immigrant officer urged them on in
the usual gentle manner which must
be applied to newcomers who have
no appreciation of the value Of time.
One elderly woman staggered under
a great canvas bag, which she car
ried on her back. Behind her walked
an able bodied man, a member of the
party, who was told in pantomime
by a man who was watching the
group to help the woman. He made
no move in hal direction, however,
but called two children, who did
what they could to ease the woman's
burden as she toiled up the steps.
And as the man who would not help
followed smilingly, one man who
vas watching the crowd said: "There
goes a man who believes in woman's
rights-to work for him."

VANISHED PHASE OF NEW YEAR

q was very, very sad this last New

man. "New Years eve is not for
the poor any more. It's for the rich

every cafe in town, buy a ten-cent
drink at each and paint the town,
but not any more. Now you must
engage a seat at a table five weeks
