SOLOMON ee Being the Confessions of the Seven Haundreath Wife. Teans'ated By Helen Rowland. Copyright, 1911, by the Preee Publishing Oo, (The New York World) 0, in Bighty-seventh street, there dwelt two L damsels, a wise virgin and a foolish virgin; and they were both exceeding beauteous. Now, upon a day, they entered a SUBWAY train; whereupon two youths, observing their comeli- ese, arose and offered them seate. And the foolish virgin accepted the seat without question. But the wise virgin turned unto the youth who had favored her with an entrancing amile of GRATITUDE, saying: “Oh, thank you SO much! You are very, VERY kind!” And when they were seated she turned to the foolish virgin and cried out in a voice so that all might hear: “Oh, Evelyn, don't you ADMIRE a courteous man!” Whereat the youth blushed and twelve men who had HEARD arose and offered their scats unto twelve women and they were ALL delighted with themselve: But when the two damsels had departed from the train the foolish virgin admonished her sister, saying: “How now, thou flatterer! Thou OVERDIDST~the thing. For the silly youth was PUFFED UP with conceit.” And the wise virgin WINKED privtly, saying: “Even so! Yet, never again in all Ris life will THAT youth remain seated while a WOMAN standeth. For he hath tasted the FRUITS of chivalry and they were sweet. Moreover, didet thow not observe twelve men who were likewise CONVERTED. “How long, Oh thou Simple One, must I continue to remind thee that men are as BABES, who must be ENCOURAGED in their good deeds with SUGAR PLUMS and praises? How long wilt thou continue to cry ” wt for thy RIGHTS, while thou neglectest to hold onto thy PRIVILEGES? “as for ME, 1 would not exchange my right to a seat in a street car VOTF.
