Reflections of a
Bachelor Girl
BY HELEN ROWLAND.
WHAT EVERY WOMAN THINKS
SHE WANTS.

SHE WANTS.
Copyright, 1890, by The Wheeler
Syndicate, lnc(
To have--or not to have?
That is the vital question OF every
womar's life
To have a HOME
And 10 worry about the servant prob
lem and the meals, and the house.
OF food, and the plumbing and the
moths, and the rugs and the garden
and the screens.
Or to live in a hotel and perish
of snnui and boredom and discomfort
To have a CAREER, fame, success.
And TO dwell forever in the limcllght,
to be the target Of gossip and envy and
a note In the public eye; never u be
able 10 do anything you want to do,
or to step out of your role for an
instant.
or 10 be unnoticed and obscure. and
10 dwell forever in the shadow and the
background, watching the parade go
To have BEAUTY
And to spend your lie battling with
Time, struggling against iucNorabie
Fate-and Fat! dieting, bunting, dress
Safeguarding the first gray hair,
Or to be plain ana homely. and to
spend your life longing vainlv for
flowers and tributes and the light OF
admiration in mems eycS2
: To possess TALENT, spark Of
the divine fire
And to be g0sded to work forever,
day after day b. the whip of con
science driven like a dray hors" by
instinct and the relentncss CosmtC urge
Or to be dun and commonplace, and
totally uninteresting and to take
life easily and comfortably?
To have RICHES
And 10 lie awake nights, worrying
about your stocks and bonds and ciia-
ETnnHE h.a
troubles,
or to be poor, and to lie awake nights
worrying about your bills aud tho price
Of gasoline?
Above all, 10 have a HUSBAND
And 10 have to stay In town all sum
mer 20 be with him. or TO 60 away an
summer and worry about him, to he
anxious and unhappy II he is lonely
without you, and suspicious and miser-
able II he isn't; to have 10 get NJ morn
ings when HE gets M, 20 eat when he
Is hungry, to play when He is merry
and TO be happy your whole life long in
HIS way
or to bo a splnster and live In coit
comfort and loneliness. with NE as
empty as a campaign speech. as dun
IS a political meeting, and as useless
as one glove or knitting needi" with
a mate?
Heigh-ho How can woman he
happy anyhow
Because every woman wants E-VERN
THlNG-untll she gets IT,
And then she wants something cIs,
And every blessed thing she Er'a is
just one more thing 10 worry at...t
And, II she hasn't thing In the
, world n worry ahout-wen then she
worries about THAT
And. II she has everything IN Vho
world TO worry about,
There are days and days,
when she wishes with hcr whole
heart, that she didn't possess a solitary
thing on earth,
