'HIE WOMAN'S CENTURY.

A Saco young man took his best

SHE DID WORRY.
The lawyer, who had been ma -
ried for only a year, sent word to
his wife that he had been suddenly
called to Milwaukee. “I will be
back tomorrow,” he wrote. “Don’t
worry. My stenographer goes with
me.”
But she did worry. When he
reached home next evening her
eyes were red from weeping, and as
soon as she saw him she broke dov> n
again. “Oh, how could you?” she
sobbed.
“What’s the matter?” he de
manded.
“Your stenographer—” she be
gan, and again she sobbed.
“What’s the matter with him?”
“Him. Was it a man?”
“Why, yes; I fired that girl a
month ago.”
Oh, dearest, I never believed it
for a moment, anyway.”
WOMEN WHO HELP.
Mrs. Oscar Wilde has slipped in
o her niche in life, which seem
ingly is to wear with grace and
effect the aesthetic draperies de
signed by her husbane. Mrs. Wilde
is a beautiful young woman, and
her gowns are among the most po
etic that have ever been created;
but even if they weren’t, the sup
position is that she would continue
towear them, anyway, because her
husband designed them, for women
are quite as true to the idols of
their husbands as they ever were,
notwithstanding all the talk about
woman and the derision she in
spires along with her large capitals
Mrs. Rider Haggard occupies the
same place with regard to her hus
band that Mme. BI oust does to hers,

O’ivcr Wendell Holmes said once

GOT FINELY EVE
AND ALL THE PASSENGERS WERE FAIR
LY DELIGHTED
She looked so pretty as she step
ped aboard the car that the man
with a cold in his head moved in
to the draft to give her plenty of
room, and the conductor rang up
two fares before he realized that
she had given him a Canadian
dime. The long-legged little girl
with her kept up an incessant
sham of questions, but she an
swered them all pleasantly. The
THE HUSTLER OF ROME TUESDAY OCTOBER 30 1894,
next time the car stopped, a sol
dierly looking lady got ia and the
pretty girl blushed very much as
she greeted her.
“Is this your little sister?” the
soldierly looking lady asked pres
ently. “Do you know who lam
dear?” I am Harold’s mother; I
hope you like Harold
“Oh yes; he brings nicer caudy
than any of them. Only Mabel al
ways makes me go out of the par
lor to eat it. ”
The pretty girl with an agoniz
ed blush mambles something about
“crumbs” and “the carpet.’
“Quite rignt, my dear,” replied
the soldierly-looking lady, “and it
is foolish of Harold ta waste his
money on candy —he will need it
all by and by.”
The pretty girl became two shades
pinker and looked out of the win
dow.
“Well, my dear,” returning to
the small girl, “I hope you will
like me as well as Harold. But
why do you look at me so closely?
Is anything wrong with my bon
net?”
“No’m,” with an angelic smile,
“I like you very much, and I dun t
think your nose is long at all.”
“Grace!” cried the pretty girl.
“My nose long! .Mercy, child,
who ever said it was?”
“Why, sister did. She said that
when she and Harold were mar
ried you had better keep that long
nose of yours out of her affairs or
Ble would —why, Mabel, what on
earth are you stopping the car for?
This isn’t our street! ”
And as the passengers in the car
looked back they were pleased to
see that Mabel' was shaking her
with all her might.
SALT AND SUPERSTITION.
The other day the wrighter saw
a young girl upset some salt at the
table and then pick up a pinch
and then throw it over her left
shoulder. She said that if she
didn’t she would quarrel with her
b?st friend. It seems silly to think
that the spilling of the salt was
going to make the quarrel, and it
seemed jnst as silly to think that
the tossing of some of it in a cer
tain direction was going to help
matters. But, like most old super
stitions, there is some reason back
of it. Salt, as you know, is a great
purifier; it prevents decay, is a
tonic and strengthener, and is nec
essary to the health, and even to
the life, of men and animals. T1 e
ancients look upon it as pure and
lasting, and made it the token of
friendship. Out of this undoubt
edly grew the idea that when salt
is spilled friendship is broken.
The Arabs regard salt as sacred,
and a Bedouin in the desert, who
would rob and kill you, perhaps,
otherwise, becomes your friend and
protector against all enemies if he
eats salt with you —his way of
offering hospitality. —Philadelphia
Times.
MISS WHITNEY’S FRENCH
POETRY.
Miss Pauline Whitney loves to
write French poetry, and does so
very well, indeed. She has con
tributed to all the leading French
periodicals, and is much amused
when a French paper refers to her
as “the daughter of one of the ex-
Emperors of America.”
SHE WAS BEAUTIFULLY
DRESSED.
We met such a sweet-looking
little woman in Bond street, beau
tifully dressed, though simpb j
enough. The skirt was accordio -
pleated, black grenadine, and tie
sleeves matched it, but the bodic
was silk, frills of the grenadine
forming a berths, and with a litCe
fine old lace in c. jabot at the neck.
A narrow folded satin waistband
ended under a rose-cob red rosette
placed at the left side of the waist.
The small bonnet was made of
black velvet arranged in double
folds, with a rosette or two of the
rose-colored silk. The fragile,
delicately-tinted face beneath had
an expression of patient cheerful
ness that made me thiuk of a rob
in’s song.
