A LIVELY DISCUSSION.
m
i
i. Two Wive* Talk Over How to Manage a
t. Husband.
| They met on State street tine sunshiny
afternoon.
*‘HoM is your busbanfl?” akked ,the
woman with the for^etmenohnon her
bonnet after the first greetings were over.
“Feeling pretty well, thank you,” re-
plied the woman with the lace cap. “He
always is well in the middle of the
month." .
“The middle of the month?” blankly
repeated the woman with the forgetme-
nots on her bonnet.
“Why; yes; there are no bills coming
in then, you know. You see, about the
28th he begins tocompkin that he is
feeling badly, on the 29th he is worse,
and by the 1st of the month I really
tremble for liis life under the excitement
of going over the accounts.”
“Humph!” ejaculated the woman with
the lace cape. “That’s nothing. Why,
my husband threatens to get a divorce
every time my dressmaker's bill is pre-
sented.”
“Do you cry?” asked the other woman
breathlessly.
“Not at all, I tell him there is noth-
ing which would please me better.*’
“But you don’t mean”-
“Of course I don’t, but be is so con-
trary that he wouldn't do it then for the
world, so he just pays the bill and says
/jo more about it.”
* “Oh! Now, my sister J ulia has an ex-
cellent plan. You know she is awfully
extravagant. Well, when a hill comes in
that horrifies even her, she lets down all
that yellov hair of hers, and when her
husband comes in he finds her weeping
bitterly.”
“Yes, yes; go on,” cried the other wom-
an eagerly.
“Of course he asks her why she is cry-
ing, and she says: ‘Oh, Harold, I am
such a wretch. Here is So-and-so's bill,
and it is awful. You are so generous
that I know you’ll pay it without a word,
but I just hate myself for costing you so
much money.’ Then she cries and tears
her hair.”
“Well?”
“Well, he says the hill is not so large,
after all, kisses her, comforts her and
pays it without another word.”
“What an awfully nice man her hus-
band must he! Now, there's Cora. Her
husband used to rave like a madman
over her hills, though he has plenty of
money. Finally Cora determined to
stop it. Oh, it is too good! What do
you think she did?”
“I don’t know. Tell me quick.”
“She laid all her plans, and one day
her husband brought home a swell friend
to dinner. As they mounted the front
steps aiherrand hoy with a huge bundle
came up also. Cora met them at the
door.
i •• ‘What is this?’ asked her husband.
Yon see, lie thought she had been buying
dry goods.”
"Yes, I know; go on.”
" ‘They wants the things on Saturday,
mum,’ said the boy. ‘All right,’ said
Cora, taking the bundle. Then she
turned to her husband and said: ‘You
know, dear, you told me that I was ruin-
ing you with my extravagance. This
is some plain sewing I intend to do ia
order to pay my hills. It shall never he
said that I ruined my husband.’ ”
“Well, I never! What was the end
of it?”
“Oh, her husband has never com-
plained of a hill since, she says. And
you know bow Cora dresses."
“Yes. There’s Gwendolen too. She
manages well.”
“What is her plan?”
“Why, about the last week in the
month her table begins tp grow poor”-
“But that is no way”-
“You don’t understand. Her husband
is a great eater, hut awfully stingy. He
complains. She says: ‘Yes, dear, I know,
hut I fear we are living beyond our
means, The bills will be coming in soon,
and we must economize.’ ”
“What then?”
“He flies into a rage and says he pays
t the hills and lie won’t starve to death.”
\y\ “Well?”
“Well, when the hills do come in and
he complains, she just says, ‘Yes, dear, I
see we must economize on the table.’
That settles it.”
“Of course. Oh, look at those lovely
india silks! I am dying for one.”
i “And so am I — but really my
/ bills”-
“And uii»e, too. Still we might try
Gwendolen’s plan. Let's go in and look
at them anyway.”—Chicago Tribune.
Trouble Ahead.
"I wonder what’s tile matter with the
pocket of this new coat of mine,” sa,d
Mr. Bingo on Sunday morning. “1 can’t
seem to get my hand in it.”
And Bobby hurried out on the hack
porch and said sorrowfully to himself, “1
wish I had found some other place to Ifide
that chewing gum.”—Clothier and Fur-
nisher. ___
An Unknown Quantity.
Daughter—What an ugly man that
Herr Krakolmeyer is. to he sure! I am
always so glad when he doesn't ask toe
to dance.
Mother—Unmarried men are never
ugly. Mind that, child! — Sonutags-

There are visitors to the Arp building
every day who show by their faces that
they would he more at ease somewhere
else in Jackson park. They walk through
the roomies though they were dfdging
their creditors, JfTijy hang theiriheads
•before a marble Ditna and steal covert
glances at some of the ambitious efforts
of the French artists. Their modesty is
so pronounced that it harts them as bad-
ly as a bunion in a fiaftit shoe. A man
with his Wife s&olled^ nrfto the French
section yesterday. HefttM the appear-
ance of a clergyman looking for a job.
She was word worldly in'Her1 dress and
manner. Before he knew where he was
going he was standing in front of a pas-
toral scene, remarkable for the amount
of flesh color it contains if for nothing
else. The man pulled his hat over his
eyes and turned to his wife, who was
looking in another direction.
“Come out of here,” he gruffly com-
manded. "f’ve seen enough of this al-
ready.”
His wife .started in meek submission,
but her eyes fell on the pastoral scene.
Her feet stuck fast pjothe floor, while her
husband repeated hi* command.
“Wait for me out in the other room,
John,” she sweetly remarked. “This is
France, you know. You had better gc
over to the architectural exhibit.”—Clil-
cago Inter Ocean.
Believers In I.uck.
There are as many superstitious peo-
ple in the world today as there ever
were, and the belief in signs, charms and
omens haS by no means passed away. A
charming young married woman has
won almost all the prizes at the progress-
ive euchre parties she has attended dur-
ing the past season. She plays well; but,
as a friend told her, "The best players
have to hold good cards to win.” At the
end of the season she told what she
thinks has been the cause of all her luck.
"I never fail to cut my finger nails be-
fore breakfast, every Monday morning,”
she said, “and that is my magical charm
against bad luck for the whole week.”
A pretty little woman who was visit-
ing herefrom a neighboring town looked
admiringly at her own dainty fingers
and anxiously inquired “if filing would
not do as well, for cutting the nails in-
jures them so,” but the lucky one was
positive it would not, and the pretty
nails would have to be sacrificed if their
owfaer wished to win. One of the best
women I know* show's a piece of silver to
the new moon each month, and if she
has to turn hack after she starts any-
where she carefully spits before she sets
out again.—Louisville Courier-Journal.
Professor Morse’s Protest.
Professor Edward S. Morse writes with
warm and righteous indignation to the
Boston Herald in protest against the
“Columbian bell” enterprise which has
taken form at Bennington. Vt. This is
a project for casting a hell from metal
relics which people throughout the coun-
try are solicited to contribute.’ “One
hardly know’s,” writes Professor Morse,
“which to condemn most—the promoters
of such a project or the weak minded
enthusiasts who are willing to deprive
their local historical museums of valua-
ble relics for the sake of adding a grain
or an ounce to the weight of this ponder-
ous hell.
“If the public were asked to contrib-
ute current coins, rings, spoons, silver
ware, breastpins, etc., all of which could
be easily reproduced, the hell would
sound just a&MKeet. But to melt down
