REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.
U'rom the Now York Pross.)
It is better to have kissod and kiss-
ed tho wrong ono thdnnovor to have
klssoil at all.
Thoro Is a now theory about every-
thing connsatud with .'babies excopt-
ono thing how to got them.
It is n funny thing that most ovory
time either a man's wifo doesn't oaro
onough for other men to suit him or
site cnro too much.
The man that a woman can hate
with a holy hatred is the man she has
never beon able to tompt from treat-
ing her with respect.
It is bnd woman who devotos her
self to social duties to the neglect of
her child. It Is a foolish woman who
devotes liersulf to her child to tho
neglect of everything alee.

where ho forgets that ho was onco a
boy life loses half U.& Ohnrms.

The lowly opinion would he just nss
