The interesting and delightful men
are all married I found that out
years ago about the same time I dis-
covered that none of the eligible men
of my acquaintance would ever do as
husbands '
It has made me wonder if good
husbands are born and not made or
whether it is the refining influence'
of the "other women” in their lives'
that has made them so adorable
Very likely that is it — or else they
had good mothers who began their
education before they were born Op
Is It — I shrink from saying— is it that
we women have become imbued with'
that same thirst for the unattainable
that from time Immemorial has been
the undoing of men? Are the good
old days when a husband and wife
had no thought for anyone on earth
but one another really gone and is
every one discontented and groaning
(under his matrimonial chains and
fetters
! Is the real reason why we attract
or are attracted by other women's
husbands that we are unattainable or
forbidden? It cannot be true! There
must be something less petty than
the crying of the child for the moon
behind it all
There are bachelors downtown too
many of them But somehow those
Whom I meet seem crude and un-
formed in comparison with the "other
women's husbands" immature and
untactful Back in my little country
ivlllage I used to assist the Plymouth
Rock hen with the batching of her
chicks picking off the little bits of
shell from the round balls of feathers
and helping in my clumsy way that
the chick might get Its bearings I
am always wanting figuratively to
poke off a bit of shell here and there
from the bachelors of my acquaint-
ance and watch them get their eyes
open — the poor things are so blind

When Edwin Forrest Worked In Shop
It has been said that the King of
Prussia Inn was a landmark and so it
was Opposite 'to it was the first
Monravlan church another guide post
In its time From both of these struc-
tures strangers in the neighborhood
were guided We learn for Instance
that the- shop in which Edwin Forest
as a boy-worked was next to the King
of Prussia The number at that time
was 71 and the embryonic tragedian’s
employers were Baker & Son The
(Bakers were Importers of German
goods and the elder member of the
firm sadly shook his head at his
young clerk who was accustomed to
pass more time in the company of a
play book than he was in his duties It
Is related that Mr Baker who is de-
scribed as a very worthy and pious
man remarked one day to ForreBt in
his own peculiar style and manner:
"Edwin my boy this theoretical infat-
uation will be your ruin” The worthy
man of course Intended his remarks
to apply to his apprentice’s infatuation

Good Use for Cattle
It is possible — for tbe question is
being discussed — that tbe French state
will buy Kerjean the finest of Breton
castles lying on the road between
Landlvlsiau and Plouescat and in the
neighborhood of Morlalx to make use
of it as a museum of the arts and in-
dustries of Brittany and planned on
the same principle as the Matson
d’Arlies A museum worthy of Brit-
tany does not exist and such a one
should be constituted before certain
features characteristic of the country
ate lost sight of in the modern level-
ing tide which is sweeping over it
Kerjean is large enough to hold all
these and combine with collections of
mere objects an "academy” of the lit-
erature language legends folk lore
and the history of the race It is also
a suitable locality for festivities ex-
hibitions competitions and other cere-
monies for the revival or preservation
of the interesting traditions of Brit-

SOLDIERS DEMAND PAY
War Minister Pleads With Troopers
to be Patient— Many Refuse
Leave of Abaense
Lisbpn — The republican govern-
ment is somewhat uneasy over the at-
titude of the regiments which made
the revolution possible Although
not openly insubordinate the soldiers
flushed with victory are showing ex-
treme independence and are cham-
pioning the maintenance of strong
power in the bands of tbe military '
The government's real reason for
according leave of absence for four
months to the soldiers who took part
in the rising with full pay Is the de-
sire to break up the regiments tem-
porarily and remove the danger of
military rebellion The majority of
the soldiers however have refused to
accept this offer saying that they
would not be duped by the deceptive
liberality on the part of the cabinet
The minister of war visited their bar-
racks and pleaded tbe necessity of
patience and forbearance during the
trying moment of tbe republic

timated at $20000000 It Is announced
