BY DOROTHY DIX.

THE heroine of one Of the most
charming and successful
plays Of the New York sea-
son is "a widow who is fair, fat and
forty eight, and who has a grown
son. Notwithstanding these impedi-
ments. every man in the cast, and
in the audience. falls head over
heels in love with her at sight, and
this has renewed the ancient dis
cussion concerning the why and
the whereforeness of the fascina-
ton Of the widow.
They Are Always Young.
Perhaps men understand this.
Women don't. They merely accept
it as fact that a widow appears
to possess hypnotic powers that
enable her to put the comether over
any man she fancies, and march
him off TO the altar, while other
women, better looking, younger,
and apparently more desirable, sit
tWlddling their thumbs in perpet-
ual spinsterhood. Indeed, above all
others, the widow seems to realize
the prophecy of the Scriptures, that
ito him who hath, shall be given
even more abundantly" for the
woman who has had one husband
seems able to get as many more as
she pleases, and to take away from
her sister the one beau that she
hath.
What I don't understand about
widows is why they are always
young until they are ready to drop
dead with old age" said a bachelor
girl at a tea table over which the
widow discussion ragged furiously.
"A woman of 40, If she is unmar-
ried, is called an old maid, and is
supposed to have reached the time
of life when she has put her mat
imonial aspirations on the shelf,
and begun to devote herself to
philanthropy. But widow OF 40 is
invariably referred to as a young
widow and conceded to have a
perfect right to be a gay and giddy
young thing.
"Widowhood is a sort OF Foun-
tain of Perpetual Youth in which
a woman dips herself and washes
off about twenty years. Now, can
anybody explain to me the reason
of this? For according to every
rule OF logic the woman who has
been married and gone through the
experiences of wifehood and moth
erhood, and the grief of losing her
domestic partner, should be older
than the unmarried woman who
has led n less eventful life"
The thing that always puzzles
me about widows is why men, pre-
fer them to women who have never
been married. said another wom-
an, "but they do. A widow can
marry al, around any other woman
in her class, any day in the week.
She can even knock a debutante's
nose out OF joint. If a woman
reaches the age of 40 or 45. for in
stance without ever having been
married at ALL her chances Of get
ting a husband are simply nil
Nothing short of a miracle enables
her to capture an eligible gentle

I'VE enough to marry, 1t enhances
her value in all other mems eyes.
It makes her a blue ribbon pri2c
winner, SO to speak, that every
one of them wants. Whereas. if q
woman reaches middle age without
ever having been married at all. he
feels that she Is second rater that
the good judges have passed over.
and even il he admires her he
hasn't the courage to pick her out
on his own judgment"
"The reason why every widow
can always marry is because she
is professional fisher of men.
while the unmarried woman is onlv
an amateur The widow knows
from experience what bait to use.
and to what flies a man will rise.
and by what arts and wiles to land
him, whereas the unmarried wom-
an only guesses, and she generally
guesses wrong. Any woman who
has gotten along for ten or fifteen
or twenty years with a man. who
has acquired skill in wheed}ing
money out of him, and deXterity in
sidestepping his prejudices, is an
adept in managing men with whom
no mere spinster can ever hope to
compete"
IF think" said the next woman.
that the reason that widows are
the preferred matrimonial risk with
men is because men realize that
when they marry a woman who has
had a previous matrimonial cxpe-
rience, they are getting u wife who
is broken to double harness. in
stead Of one that they would have
to break in themselves. And, be-
lieve me. this is no small advan-
tage. The average girl mal4ies
without knowing how to keep
house, how to manage money, and
with the most idiotic highfallutiu'
notions about what matrimony is.
and what she has d right to expect
Of her husband.
She Plays Up to Him.
by the time she has killed of
one husband with dyspepsia, and
made him glad to die by naggins
him about smoking and coming
home on time, she has learned her
lesson and is ready to be a COM
Portable. companionable wife. She
has acquired the art Of cookery,
and learned to make the best of o
for that reason she makes an ideal
wife You almost never hear Of
couple in which the wife was
widow figuring in the divorce
courts"
"Tho real explanation Of the
Widows fascination for men said
the old woman lis to be found i'll
the fact that she plays up to q man
instead OF expecting him TO play up
to her. The unmarried woman. am
especially the young girl, expects
every man to burn incense at her
feet. The widow lights the jos7
sticks herself before the man she
wants-and lands him.
THE unmarried woman talks
about herself her aspirations anu
plans. She drags the man about TO
the places she wants to go, Sne
makes him spend money he doesn
want to. or can't afford. The WIDOW
never mentions herself She puts
in the golden hours telling man
how great and wonderful he IS,
and she is apparently just as wei
pleased to sit at home and fan MN
with hot air as to go to the grand

Old Swan Lake

Mr.. Allen was appointed post

office, | think, until his removal
to Hurley. Mr.. Brauch was one
of the wide awake citizens of
Swan Lake. A year ago last
spring he told me that during
the hard winter of 1901 he
carried the mail from Parker.
He said that he did not miss a
trip all through that fearful
winter, until early in February.
He had to go to Yankton on
business and he engaged another
man to take his place. Upon
his return he found that his sub

Avoid society if you would make a

If you would retain your friends,

JOAQUIN MILLER
DIES IN SUNLAND
Poet of Sierras Passes at Loved
Home After Lingering Illness.

Oakland, CAL, Feb. 17.-Joaquin
Miller (Cincinnatus Heinie) the "Poet
OF the Sierras," died today in his one
room cabin, which he built in the
Piedmont hills many years ago. The
end came at 3 o'clock in the after
noon with warm sunshine flooding the
room where lay the author of "Songs
of the Sunland."
Death came slowly upon the VEN
cradle poet. He became unconscious
Thursday after a lingering illness
which began when he was struck by
paralysis two years ago. His wife
and daughter, Juanita were sum-
moned at that time from the East
and have been with him since. The
weakness of age had come upon him
and he rarely ventured from "The
Heights" as he called his mountain
retreat.
For many years "The Heights" ha,
been the Mecca for lovers of JOAQUIN
Miller's poetry. He always received
his visitors graciously and loved to
tell in vein of quaint humor of the
old adventurous days which he men,
orialized in his verses. His faculties
were undimmed until almost the emo
and he labored at intervals upon a
poem which he said was to be the
most momentous work of his life. He
guarded the poem with the utmost
secrecy and not even his wife and
daughter knew his subject. He was
about 70 years old.
