After Kitty had left for home I ask

go with me to one-of the new femin-
list clubs that I had lately joined. l
was a little interested in seeing just
how the radical utterances they
would hear there would affect them.
Mother Waverly is really quite con-
tent in her new quarters, although
she keeps Mollie at home with her
evenings more than is good, for the
child.

and she has become much interested
in a. card club in the hotel, where
eight women of about her age play
cards every week.

The club that l attend is made up
Of few brilliant women of the Mrs.

number of clever women who are in

some women who, like myself, desire

Mary looked about at the queer dress

smoking is one of the Russian nobil-
ity-a woman of splendid attain

women smoke. She is an ardent
prohibitionist and is only waiting for
the car to proclaim prohibition in her
country.
''She believes that smoking quiets
her nerves and is a perfectly all

l admire her very much. Smoking,
dear Mother, is, in my opinion, mere

of morals, either in men or women"

A few minutes later my Russian

S Nrs. smiths Address.

Mrs. Mortimer w. Smith, Of this city
who acted as POSTMASTER at the
Daughters of Confederacy banquet
Thursday night at the Waldo hote',
made the following address on that
occasion:
Madam President. United Daughters
of the Copfederacy aud gentlemen:
1T is with great reluctance that
assume the responsibility connected
with SO important position as to do
the honors OF hospitality on this &C.
casion. Were daughter Of the
Orient-an humble Chinese could
express my humility in regard to this
undeseryed honor in a more fitting
manner. Here am reminded Of an
ancedote related concerning Genera;
d. n. Hill, father Of our distinguishel
guest, Mrs. Thomas Jackson Arnold,
OF Elkins. At one time during an en-
gagement in the late war, Genera
Hill met a young soldier running away
from battle and crying as though his
heart would break. The general turn
ed him back and reproved him for his
lack OF courage, by saying. The idea
OF a soldier, crying like baby" to
which the, trembling soldier replied
Il wish'I were baby, and a gal baby
at that, must confess that have
been called upon to do that which has
terrorized me- as the runaway soldier
was frightened by the federal guns,
but assure you that Lam going to
stand my ground right in the face of
all you big guns here assembled, feel
Ing assured that you will make due
allowance
For you scarce expect one OF my
age ESQ youthful) h.
To speak inspublic upon the stage
And should / chance to fall below,

Don't view me with critical eye
But pass my imperfections by"
When Solomon was crowned king
OF Israel, God gave him his choice Of

of his wisdom for this occasion, be-
