The habit OF going away alone to

And there the sack hung in rnidair.

THE WOMAN wHo swEARs.

The published testimony In severa
recent New York divorce cases leads
to the conclusion that profanity Is 9
common custom with the women OF
the higher circles" OF society.
Is the woman who hsbitually swears
whatever may be her breeding or Do
sition, entitled TO the good old name
OF '1adyY
There are just two classes In this
category. one OF which is ruled out IL
advance-the women OF the Four Hun
dred and the unfortunate women OF
the underworld.
In the time OF Queen Elizabeth the
court ladies practiced profanity, the
example being set by the queen her
self, who swore at the slightest prov.
ocation. and emphatically.
Catherine. empress OF Russia, swore
round oaths on occasion.
After Charles i. OF England the
reforms In the government brought
about purity OF speech unknown to
the court OF the former, but when
Charles III. came to the throne swear
Ing was esteemed by the dissoIute
court ladies as a fine art. Moreover
it Was coupled with the lewd, result.
ing in a foulness OF speech never ex
ceeded.
History teaches that lowering of
the morals accompanies profanity Of
speech.
The woman OF the upper circles may
oner as excuse that the men of her
class habitually use profane epithets,
which Is one count I'm the Indictment
of the upper circles.
The fact is the dissipation incident
TO the social lives OF these people leads
to ioosening OF their morals, which
Is another count I'm the indictment.
No.
The woman who carelessly uses
oaths or takes upon her lips the name
or her Creator is thereby less a wo-
man.
1t is bad enough that the men of all
classes. because Of habit, should en-
paoy profanity for "emphasis' sake"
But
The woman Of the mansion who
swears links herself with the scarlet
woman OF the city siums.
And is unworthy to be called a lady.

Lords and Commons.

An ancient English custom fOrbids
the participation of peer in the cleo
ton Of a commoner. so that when a
general election is actually In progress
the lords are Oratorically muzzIed by
fiction that suppOses them to be quite
indifferent to the composition of the
lower house. but until the candidates
nave been actually nominated the
peers may use all the eloquence with
which nature has endowed them for or
against the issue involved In the ap-
preaching election.

THE LURE OF EASY MONEY.

John X. Walsh. two years ago worth
$20,O0o,OO0 and one OF the leading I'm
anciers Of Chicago. is now convict

Accustomed to luxury In his Calumet
avenue mansion. this old man OF sew
enty-one is wearing coarse garb. eat
ing coarse food and will stay In Leav-
enworth prison for five years should
he live that long.
Why?
The immediate cause was the misap-
plication OF the funds of the defunct
Chicago National bank.
The real cause was money mania.
In the humble cottage OF his boy
hood home, as a boy, Walsh dreamed
over the peat fires Of old Ireland and
yearned to be rich. In time he realized
ais dreams. only to have them shat
tered in one night.
Like Morse and Stensland and other
bankers in federal prisons. he over
reached himself and lost all.
or course Walsh would be able to
explain to you that his failure was no
fault OF his, that he depended on prom
ises made by eastern fnanciers and
that had his plans succeeded he would
have been hailed as one OF the great
promoters OF his age, etc.
But
There he is. with face scanned by
suffering. a grandfather, a bankrupt
and a convict.
A strange thing?
Not atall. Smooth business men. ami
mated by greed, are running a like
risk every day. The only difference is
that they have not been detected and
exposed.
When the day OF exposure comes t
is only a short step from wealth. hon.

He who runs may read the lessons
that come out OF such ingiorious ca
reers.
Young man
Temptation Will come to you. Firm
ly fix 1t in your mind that under the
severest strain you will be absolutely
honest.
1t Is your only safety.
And beware OF speculation.
The lure OF easy money is running
tens or thousands. Somebody has said
the wheat pit OF the Chicago board of
trade Is only few feet across. deep
as hades! The New York Stock Ex-
change Is just as deep. Stick to
straight business.
Had John X. Walsh been scrupulous-
iy honest and avoided high finance he
would have piled up less money, but
he would not be convict 6S64.

RECITAL AT MRS. MeEAcHERN,s.

The recital at Mrs. McEachern's
beautiful home last Friday evening
was greatly enjoyed by every one pres
emf. Mrs. Wyatt was prevented from
singing by a severe cold. Mrs. Ralph
Northcutt sang three numbers very
syeetly, accompanied by Mrs. C. w.
DuPre. Mrs. H. C. Dobbs sang my
LaAys Bower" and for an encore.
"A Garden of Roses" She was &C.
companied by Miss Josephine Dobbs
who played beautifully and made a
lovely picture in princess dress of
rosy silk and white lace.
Mrs. Northcutt's selections were
"Hasheen,' Concession" and Sen
tember." All the songs were beauti-
fully sung,
Miss Fosters selections included:
The House With the Paint Worn
OF" "A Dickens Dinner Party" (spe
ciaa arrangement from BLEAK House")
Counting Eggs" "Jest Fore Christ
mas" Little Boy Blue" "Sonny's
Christening" "The Night Wind"
"sendalphon," THE Sign of the Cross"
and The Honor of the Woods"
All were perfectly recited and the
control of voice shown in the instant
changes from old men and women,
young girls and children, was simply
marvellous. Her rendition of the din
ner party, with Rev. Chadband as the
guest of honor, was a kind of defense
of Charles Dickens against the charge
that he was irreverent OF ministers and
churches. Whatever We may think of
Mr.. Chadband's Character" in the
story Of "Bleak House" that glimpse of
him at the dinner table was Just fun
ny and We have Judge Bleckley's word
for it that fun is next best to religion
itself. "Sonnys Christening" brought
tears Of mirth to the eyes of all the
ministers listening and none of them
thought Ruth AcEnery Stuart meant
the least harm by her exquisite hui
NOR Every one was enthusiastic in
praise of Miss Foster and will hold
the evening a glowing gem in mem
ory's casket.
Miss Lola Lou Smith presided over
the recital in her usual sweetly dig
niaed and womanly manner and was
very handsome in white silk. Mrs.
Grower and Mrs. George Roberts as
sisted Mrs McEachern in receiving
the guests.

pared such a beautiful surprise in hon
or of the day. The round table was
covered with battenburg lace and the
big birthday cake was round, profuse-
ly decorated with roses and the two
dates in pink frosting. This beautiful
work had been done by Mrs. Ralph
Northcutt, who had also made the rich
plum-cake and the punch bowl of de-
licious eggnog with whipped cream
The birthday cake was surrounded by
pink candles and the flowers used were
pink carnations Many suitable gifts
were bestowed and Mr.. R. H. North
. cut gave silver wheels with the eagles
typical of flying hours, for every birth
day.
