A philosoph- fenl old fraud ouce discovered that therofy nothing more nable than the self-abnegation of o tan who toils away his life that some woinan may live comfortably and extract nll tho sweets from cxistente, Perhops the philo- sophical old fraud spoke truthfully of his own time, but In this Iatcr generation of wisdom the self-abnegation is forgotten, and man has becdme a pack-lorse upion whom are loaded ol the whims and en- rrlcu of womankind, aul whose chief end s he establishinent of eo mflchnhslrnct happiness upon a sound basls for sonio woman to cnjoy. ‘To the Americau woman of the nincteenth cen- tury, man. appenrs in the puise of oservant, 1lis preferences are disregarded, Iiis personnl comiort {5 not congldered, 8he esteems him in proportion to whut’he ean do for her, and if b nccldent she happens to detect him in an attl- "tude of complacent enqnyment down she comes Iike the woll on the fold, and he marches up to the ring-bolt ke a great, strong, stapid ox.

The cars have three scats set apart for gontles men who wish to smoke, and these sents are as sacred to that purposo as s lady’s jewel-box to ita contents. A woman has no right on the car whilea man f8 smoking on onc of those seats unless she has sufliclent relinement and culture to en?o{‘um flavor of . the smuke. Conductors should be instructed to inquire of every woman whether or not sho likes smoke, and if she does not sho should be summarily ejected nnd com- pelled to walk, Let the hoys alone, “If they waut to smoke they have the right, and i any womau objects haul her dowa on the spot.
