ABOUT wOMEN-BY A MERE MAN

like 10 try the experiment Of loving
the same woman twice-but / have
never dared 10 give UP the time TO il.
I spent yesterday with the cleveresi
girl IN all the world. II has taken me
all the time since then TO recover from
the conviction OF my own Importance.
The length OF time it takes TO get
around girls waist Is not always in
proportion 10 its size.
a woman who stands in front OF her
and looks up and down the street is
not always looking for her husband.
never stood we'll in chemistry. That
is why I derive no enjoyment from
making up TO a made-up woman.
II would be impossible for me TO re-
specJ any woman who did not have the
capacity 10 make me suffer.
To a sick man. every trained nurse
under forty is a thing of beauty and a
joy forever.
II has been said that woman never
provides for the future. To this Eve
stands as permanent contradiction.
Every woman resents in her hear;
the man who respects her for her char
acter alone.
You can always tell that moment
when girlhood has departed and wom-
anhood has begun. Ii is at this point
that she never has anything 20 wear
When. without consulting woman. a
man can order a dinner at a restaurant
with which she is perfectly satisfied, he
has arrived at the fullness OF his pow
er; there is nothing more for him 10
achieve.
1t is a wise woman who knows when
TO resent unfamiliarity.
No woman ever acquired virtue or
had il thrust upon her.
The unconventional woman needs no
chaperon.-Smart Set.

came last evening following an operation
for cancer OF the intestines. performed by
DR.. John F.. Erdmann at tho well known
turfmans home In the Hereford apart
ments. No 30 West 18th street. The
patient lay in a stupor much OF the time
until o'clock yesterday afternoon. when
he lapsed into Inconsistencies. He died
about Z O'Clock.
"Davy" Johnson was born in New
York. His father was a butcher, with O
natural taste for the cards and dice
boxes The younger johnson worked for
his father at first. but after the elder
johnson abandoned the business for .
life more to his liking the son did like
wise. In the south he made some re-
markable hauls at the trackside, and
soon came back to New York
For more than a decade he had been
known as the most daring of all gamblers
and his operations We're the amazement
of his cult along the Great White Way"
1t mattered little how often he was
cleaned out He always came back so
the newspapers one day that johnson
was broke again" and a day or so later
to see a headline telling that johnson
Had Recouped His Fortune"
In his day Johnson owned many race
horses. but the best known of them all
was Roseben. for which he is said to
have paid $3.50. Roseben. a big bay

johnson never confined his operations TO
race tracks. At prize fights. faro banks
and all manner and kind Of gambling

was Tipping pennies $1,000 throw. He
had the reputation of losing ST., 900 In this
form of audacious Indulgence on a Long

Before horse racing was robbed OF its
attractiveness In this state johnson made
and unmade several fortunes. More than
once he ran shoe string into thou
sands OF dollars. He left Belmont Park
track October IS. 1907. So. 900 richer than
when he entered t. The sudden addition
to his finances was due to the fact that
he had picked five out OF six winners

Many OF the gamblers old friends, on
learning Of his death, called at his apart
