A husband may: meet his paymentssfor a few months or until his bond expires, and then. elther hide in New York or go without the juris- iction of the court. Desertion has:recently been made an extraditable Offense, which may in part account for-theerecent increase in the number f-applications from deserted wives. Infidelity {s not the reason-which:the» women: most frequently give for-their domestic differences. Quarrelling-over the-cooking, or drinking, era general distaste and aversion are the most frequent causes. The hus- band has come to the conclusion that his life would be more peaceful and things would go more easily with him ifche had only himself to look 4 rept after, and he simply goes away. It.is rarely that a husband goes: to:a:police-court-to complain of his - wife. If he is dissatisfied.:he:departs.

" Dressed“in-a*frock coat and-a:silk hat, frayed-and- well-worn refics-of former prosperity, John T. Rapelee-was driven. in a carriage to the White Plains poorhouse. At the age of eighty-two he had seven. cents left out of-a fortune of half a million dollars. Of good family and distinguished ancestry, he closes an active and honorable-business career ‘by. living as a pauper on public charity, If ‘he had died at the end oftthertraditionary period of three-score-and ten years leaving a-fortune and an established business name, Mr. Raj lee’s career might have been classified with those of scores of other cessful Americans. Instead of dying then, his good habits and his strong constitution kept him alive when business conditions had outgrown. him and when his age prevented his securing employment. If all men were to live to be a hundred, -how many more John-T. Rapelees would there be? Life is not so precious that it is always worth clinging to after its opportunities are exhausted and its activitles gone. Death is not so dreadful that it should: not:be welcomed in preftrence:to many forms of life. PIE MACHINES. Pie machines have been perfected until a Pittsburg-bakery. announces that it has one machine which will turn out forty pies a-minute and keep it up all day. The dough and contents:are fed in through hoppers, the ma- chine makes the upper and lower crusts, fills in the-contenta, runs it through a furnace, and pies come out ready-cooked, This is all wrong. Even a loaf of bread shoul have-some indivi: ality, and as for a machine-made pie, it should rank in the dietetic category even lower than hash, The people of the United States are becoming a race of dyspeptics, not so much because of their diet or the ice-water habit, but by reason of the lack of care and toothsomeness:in the prepara- | tion of their food. Food made by machinery may have the same chemical: ingredients, but it can never taste the same as:the-hand-made productions of an appreciative cook, HUNTING IN THE BRONX. Hunting in the neighborhood of the Bronx Zoo-is good these: nights. Since stray dogs killed a number of the deer the keepers on watch at) night carr, shotguns to- protect the animals from further devastation. The} dogs and cats of the neighborhood which were in the habit of invading | the Zoo at night are being killed off by the vigilant keepers. The animals in the Zoo are having a hard time of it this summer. Besides the ordinary nuisances of the people who feed'them unwholesome things and the general discomforts of captivity and hot weather there were the wholesale deaths which followed the distribution: of fly poison and the recent killings by the voracious dogs and the cats of the Bronx. Civilization has its perils as well as its comforts, The Union Pacific dining cars have replaced their colored with white Sixty thousand wives carrying their woes every year to the police court is a greater number than the annual crop of brides.

Surely this ly enterprising young woman has shed a new light on the great sentimental problem that presents Itself to all her sex with uninteresting ss—i. e., the choice between the man who loves her and the man she loves. She has in fact taught us the solution, and we need no longer sit | meekly by the fireside waiting for the man we love to propose till, becom | ing tearful of being left withering on the vine forever, we accept the seven= | teenth proposal of the man who loves us and gracefully subside into.sub- | aued and colorless domesticity. Henceforth the fiance's presents shall fur nish forth his dilatory rival's wedding feast, ang st him up in business as well, And all will be merry as a marriage bell, exc «pt, perhaps, the dis | carded flance, who won't count. In love there are just three kinds of wo- men—those who have the corage of their convictions; second, those who have the courage without the convictions, and, third, those who have the | convictions without the courage. To the first elect class belongs Miss Ella Brill, whose convictions were | decidedly In favor of Elias Jaller, and whose courage led her to seek to | marry him at the expense of Samuel Edelson. The second class includes the large number to whom matrimony itself {s the main achievement and the particular victim a secondary matter, determined eatisfactorily enough | by chance, while the third is made up of the sweet, old-fashioned Violas, who love, but “let concealment like a worm {’ the bud” feed on their dame ask cheeks. Of course, ethically the action of Miss Ella Brill is Indefensible. But many sublime things are. Now, of course, we all remember the Napoleonta | dictum that from the sublime to the ridiculous there is only one step— | generally the last step we take up the chureh aisle before the clergyman stops us, But Miss Brill has not taken that step yet. So, thodgh fow women will care to emulate her, we may all marvel at her novel and suo» | cessful daring.
