Buggy riding with young people !has passed away but the old people |have canght the “craze,” A Distinctive Ti= tle For Bachelors. The demand for woman’s rights continues to grow apace. [t has be come nearly world wide. In Eng land the suffragettes are demanding the ballot, In Turkey the woman’s righters demand the right to exhibit their faces in public. In our coun try they are demanding everything that is in sight, and they are gan ing these rights. From victory to victory they go, no sooner having gained one point than they begin on anothes, and such advances have they made that their leaders actual ly have to lie awake at night trying to study up other rights to claim, ~ Some of these leaders in Illinois have now found another. Women do uot all bear the same title, As sooa as they reach the stage of joung womanhood and politeness Tequire that a handle be affixed te their tame then this is a pplied, Qvery young woman is **Miss.” This ftitle they carty untii they are mar ried. If a woman remaing unmar ’riegi she remains a ““Miss” all her life, and s 0 it may, and does hup-; pe‘ia that an octogenurian lady may :bg‘;‘Miss Smith, while a sweet sixteen ‘may be Mrs, Bmith. . I'his gives tne advantage or dis advantage—as the case may be— that knowing @ woman's correct (- tle if'may always be known whether he he single or marned. [t is an vantage toa man to know this 7ke and ? > ‘ “fi tage 10 a married woman who de sires to get up merely a flirtation with such a man, ‘ In tnis matter, man has the advan tage. Heis “M:.” from the time he casts off knee breeches and with it the title of ““Master.”” His cor rect tigle may be known, but 1t doesn’t indicate whether he 1s single or married The woman’s righters now demand that this inequality be tween the sexes be wiped ont, and that some distinctive title be applied to married nten as in the case of married women, and they have in duceu Senator Ettelson to introduce a bill to this effect in the Ilhinois Legislature. No doubt such a law will be pass ed; if not at once it will be later. The woman’s nighters never let up until they get what they coatend for, Recognizing that sooner or later this must come to pass, itis well to be prepared to act when that time shall come, In what way shall the distinction be made? - Following the precedent a man wonld of course remain “Mr.”” as long as he remained unmarried, In this way “Mr.” could be equivalent ‘ to “Bachelor.” But what title should be given the married wen? This is a knotty problem which on-,‘ ly an advanced suffragette will ever, be able to solve. Any other title now in use, such as Col. or Prof, iwould not answer since unmarried ‘men may bear them, The only way iwould seem to be the coining of a new title as in England, Mr, John 'Smith becomes Sir John Smith to dengte that he is the son of a lorg or something. _ Perhaps ‘‘Henpecked” would be an appropriate title, certainly when that day shall come when woman's ;ighfs have advanced so far that they 'eqmrc the fact that a man is na;- ried to be indicated by his name, — Written for the Herald by a Folk stonite in the behalf and sympathy of the “bachelors.” ‘BBOKS e GREDIT e Frankin-Turner Go,, Aflanta, Ga, ™t Pull for Charlton Coun ty or pull out.
