Thirty Summer Girls Were Waiting for a Man, and Guess What Happened? The Summer was over, the sea s<>n about ended, and thirteen Summer girls sat on the hotel ver anda lotkihg dcwu the road to ward the railroad depot. It had been a long, long season, there had been thirteen Summer girls at that mountain resort from the opening of the season. Now and then a young man had come up to stay for a fortnight to help his hay fever, been attacked by those thirteen Summer girls en masse and fled after tweuty-foui hours. Now and then a married man, realizing the loneliness of the situation, had sought to heighten things; but, alas, his wife was there to nip his gocd intentions in the bud. The hotel bus had gone to the depot in answer to a telegram. The thirteen girls were watching for its arrival. There was yet a faint ray of hope. Some young man might have secured a week’s vaca tion at the last moment. Some old bach might take in this resort to end the season. Some widower might be coming that way to let the mountain breeze blow off the edge of hi? grief. “There comes the bus!” shout ed thirteen voices in chorus as the vehicle toiled slowly up the hill side. “I’ll bet he’s a young man!” “If it is, we’ll draw lots for him!” “I h«pe it’s a widower with a weed on a white plug hat !” “The driver is waving his hand —it must be a good-looking young man! Girls, get ready to cheer his arrival!” Thirteen Summer girls gasped for breath and trembled. Thir teen pairs of blue, black and hazel eyes watched the vehicle slowly ap proach. Every second seemed ten. On on, on came the bus, and at length it halted at the platform —the door opened and the last ar rival of the season appeared. Th' j re was a shudder, a long-drawn groan, and then thirteen pairs of hands went up and thirteen voices wailed out in dismal chorus: “Bang my bangs if it isn’t a gid dy old grass widow!” Across The Dinner Table. “A great drawback to the ad vancement of women is the lack of pockets,” said the real esta’e man oracularly, as he sat down the salt sifter with a thump. “You may laugh, and you maj’ call it a chestnut, but I tell you the fact has born in on me lately with renewed force. When a woman has to give her whole mind to taking care of her pocketbook she cant be expected to have any brains leftjfor anything important. By Jove! if I had to carry something valuable in my hand for half a day while I was running about sizing up lots and brownstone fronts, I’d be a raving lunatic before night. “You women are keen enough to get up and demand your right to the ballot; why don’t you rise as one man and demand your’right to a pocket?’ “Well, you see rising as one man would be utterly useless; indeed, it would be the height of folly,” responded the Vassar girl. “A dressmaker never stands in fear of men, and" as for one man— why. she’d laugh him to scorn. No, the only thing is to rise as twenty thousand women, and you see that isn’t easy. It’s a good deal easier to wait until she gets ready to give ue the pockets ’’ “Well, I—wel —’’ The real estate man’s sentence ended in something like a mixture of ga s P, sniff and grunt He was evidently too full of salad and indignation fcr utterance. “It seems to me I can see why women haven’t got the ballot;” chimed iu the lawyer. “There’s a screw loose somewhere, and they are not ready for it. •‘WLen they are independent enough to insist on pockets and carrv their money like men—” “Well, you see, they can’t car ry it like men—at least, not like some men—because they—they don't wear trousers,” put in the white, with considerable diffidence and hesitation. “There are about fourteen other pockets besides those particular ones in a man’s wardrobe. I'm not insisting on any special pocket. “But I do say that the woman who is compelled to wear her hand* kerchief up her sleeve or go with out one, and to carry her money in her hand, or go without that, simply because her dressmaker thinks her gown looks better with out pockets, isn’t ready for any more rights than she’s got. She can’t take and use those that al ready belong to her. Now, if we men wouldn’t let you have pock* ets” “That reminds me of a little story,” broke in the lieutenant. “You see, Mrs. Dedgers is one of those women without pockets, and who gives her whole mind to carrying her pocketbook in her hand. “She was down at Atlanta City and the sea didn’t do her the good she had expected it would, mainly owing to the care of that pocket book. “Her husband went down to bring her home, and on his arrival she heaved a sigh of relief, princi . pally from the fact of knowing that he would then assume the duties of treasurer, whereupon she opened her trunk, dropped in the incubus of her existence, other wise her alligator, silver-tipped pocketbook, and slammed down the trunk lid, locking it with a ; glad jubilant click. “After the trunk was checked and put in the baggage car, and it wanted just about one minute of train time, Mrs, Dedgers happened casually to remember that her hus . band had given her both his ticket and her own, and they were safely stored away in that purse in the trunk. “The conductor was interviewed, but he, not being a professional mind reader or clairvoyant, was just stupid enough not to be able to see into the trunk, and hard and unsympathetic enough not to take Mr. and Mrs. Dedgers’ word for it. “It was a trying moment. Can’t you let me go in the baggie car ami open the trunk 1 ?” he asked. “Well, but you see you can’t get in there except by crawling through a little hole scarcely big enough to let your body through.’ “Mr. Dedgers reflected, and Mrs Dedgers implored him with tears in her eyes not to risk his life for the tickets. “Then Mr. Dedgers gave his dear partner a withering look, and re marked that life didn’t hold for him many charms after all, and he might as well die one time as another. “Well, he concluded to do it, and there was one moment when it was a question whether he or the role would come out ahead, and lis coat hung by a single thread. 3ut he got in there, jammed his fingers, sprained his wrist, and lore his pants hauling those trunks around. Still, he got the tickets, and that was something. “Mr. Dedgers’ views regarding women’s pockets, I am sorry to say, are now quite as radical and extreme as those of the real estate man.” Heard and Overheard Everywhere—That the modern girl is an extraordinary cieature in her supreme selfishness; she thinks the world is made for girls, and the Summer especially, In the World—That the taste for dressing in manish fashion comes to a woman either very earlyjin life, before she has fallen a vic tim to frills and fripperies, or late in life, when she affects to despise them. In a Boudoir—That maidens with “soft moonlike eyes,” exist only m novels, and mostly Japanese novels at that, Grace before Clothes.—That ‘‘l wish you health and wealth and weather to wear them.” In the Theatrical World—That Lillian Russeil is not a g' nu ; nel\ handsome woman—she is only a i bromo. On the Street. -That the I elle mode are affecting two trills, one of while lace with black spots, the other ot brown lisse In Vanity F ir—That Mis o'- don Mills, is u»uai!y regarded as the best dressed woman in society. In the C> ding Worhl.—That the Baroness de Seilliere. is a recent c ’overt to the wheel; she wears seal brown, with a little black bon net perched jauntily on her silver hair. Overheard, —“Why doe? a woman always say No - when she means ‘Yes'?lu order not to miss the lux ury of changing her mind In England.— T hat among the odes iu honor of the new baby is oue which should turn the author into a laureate ; OTootsicunn! toothless and tiny!
