plan is that the city will undertake
to establish the grades, but to build
the walks, taxing up to the property
owners the simple and actual cost of
the work.
There will be no effort to make any
money; and no endeavor of any sort
but to establish proper grades, at the
lowest cost to the taxpayers, and put
in uniform and thoroughly good walks.

u Oh, the woman the rest OF the
women are talking about.
She is generally mighty pretty lit
tie thing, too, bright and sweet and
that it is a reprehensibie way? Why,
what did you know about it? Did you
ever meet her? No-just going on what
the other women said? And women al
ways know each other?
Well, ! should say that they do not.
Don't you let that idea dwell In your
mind for one moment, my sisters.
Women may always know women, SO
far as they are both women, and each
is as big as the ither. But lots and lots
of women aren't just women. they have
brains, too. And lots and lots of them
are bigger than some others, too.
Why, some women l know could, in
the greatness and largeness of their
lures, simply enwrap and swallow up
and engulf and forest about dozen lI,-

That's why We women goSSip-because

gossiping.
1t is a funny thing how women begin
to talk about another woman. They
notice her first because she is clever and
most likely, and because she is full OF
life and fire and love. and all the posi-
bilities Of kindness and goodness.
OF course, she isn't all of this, always.
Once in long, long while she is a snake
in the grass. But you take the average
snake in the grass, and she is apt to be
engaged in kissing voiubly-like her sister
goss.pS-about the little white dove next
door, or the scarlet tanager fitting about
like streak of flame from tree to tree,
or the whispering of an angels wing
among the ficecy clouds above you. The
snake i'm the grass doesn't like them
never did have any use for these bird
people, except as matter OF diet, any
way.
But when the woman isn't this sort
of exception. she first appeals to the gos-
sips because OF the qualities or posses
sions 1 have mentioned, and then she
gets their notice because she attracts
attention-and that is about the worst
thing a pretty and bright woman can do,
in their eyes-to attract attention
OF course 1t may be-and nearly all is
the sort OIL dICeUllOl tHdl any
girl likes to attract and that leads, after
a while, to Hearts and Flowers played
by our accomplished orsanist. and to a
long lace veil and orange blossoms. and
a maid of honor wiping her eyes on the
middle of her handkerchief SO she won't
get the lace around the border all unused
up.
But those women begin to wonder if
she isn't attracting altogether too much
attention, and then they begin to think
she must be, and then they begin to say
that she Island there YOU are! And let
them get that sort of thing started, and
keep it up long enough, and even a Bot
ticelli Madonna is going, after a while,
probably to commit every crime in the
entire list of feminine discrepancies be-

the first to obtain a national approprla-

script fathers of his day are among the
most entertaining of his widows reni-
niscenceS. After a disheartening strug-
gle he finally aroused the interest OF
John 4. Logan, then serving in the lower
house. Mr. Logan was not a scientific
man, but he recognized the value of es-
tablishing such a bureau with competent
men at the head, and after long strug-
gle obtained the first public money ever
given the geological survey, which was
5000.
Mr. Stevenson lived to see the survey
grow into colossal usefulness, and before
his death the child Of his ambition was
getting over half q million dollars an
nually and had spread its activities all
through the wilderness, as the west
then was. This same department Of the
government now gets over a million and
Il half annually, and it has obtained a
high place among the geological surveys
