a man Of political power; if, with an
aim that is decidedly higher, she longs
for a husband who has d brain in his
head and knows how to use it, then
let me tell her one place where she
will never find the man she seeks-in
some girls parior chattering like a
maggie, or in a ball room handing out
ices in such a tender. solicitous fash
ion that if he We're waiter he would
grow rich on tips.
The great men, my dear are never
the calliopes in Hfe's parade
The best husbands are never the
men who thought shining in society
the height of ambition. Marriage is
something more than selecting part
ner for waltz.
Moreover, the man who is in demand
because he dances well, sings a little
with the ease OF a professional, has d
joke for every occasion and knows just
when and how far to turn a compl-
ment. enjoys a certain cheap popular
ity that turns his perfectly brushed
head
He likes what he calls "excitement."
He enjoys the bright lights and the
late hours The man who enjoys the
bright lights and late hours is the man
who is late to work next morning, and
shows a brain suffering with 'indiges-
ton when he gets there
There are no bright lights in the harI
work that success eXacts. and the late
hours are not spent in idle amusement
The quiet man. the GOOd honest soul
that knows nothing about society is
the man who mas never been spoiled by

young man can on me for
the past few weeks He is a perfect
gentleman, and all that and the only
thing l have against him is that he is
rather quiet and doesn't know much
about society"
The fault in youth which causes the
greatest torment in years of maturity
is that of not being able TO tell bit of
worthless coiored glass from a rare
jewel.
This girl is young. She finds fault
with man because he is quiet and
knows nothing about society How
many women there are who have grown
old before their time just because they
loved and married men who were noisy
and knew everything about society
Being young, and fond of bright bits
of worthless glass, this girl thinks more
of the polished compliment than of the
one not so readily or gracefully paid.
She doesn't know that every compli-
ment that is polished received it's luster
through being rubbed on the vanities of
other women before her. She hasn't
learned that the compliment that is
paid awkwardly has the stamp of sin
cerity
There is many a man who can hand
a girl into a carriage with a grace that
makes her feel like a queen starting
forth to show herself to her admirlng
subjects, who hasn't the ability to earn
enough to buy a wheelbarrow

line and entered their camp after Gen.

We noticed some of the Johnnies

cut and split out quite large pieces of
the tree. l heard one Of them say, as
he sbouldered his portion: Gen Lee

he started off across the country and

BISHOP. ESTATE MAKES
LIBERAL PAVING OFFER

At recent meeting the trustees of
the Bishop Estate agreed to bear one
third of the cost Of laying a perma-
Hnent pavement on Bishop street, from
Hotel to King street, conditioned on
the installation of all water, sewer and
gas-piping in the stretch before the
paving is done. 1t is expected that the
remainder Of the cost will be shout
dered by the municipality and the Al
exander Young Hotel Company.
This enterprising proposal of the
Bishop Estate trustees is inspired by
their wish to have modern street in
front of the large business block they
are preparing to erect opposite the
Young. 1t is reported that Architect
Tfaphagen, who was in consultation
with the trustees here some months
ago, has the plans for the building
nearly completed at his office in Los
Angeles.
