By Nixola Greeley-Smith. = At last an in- ¥ genious woman in Boston has found a way for everybody to be decorated, to wear the buttons of rank, the in- signia of gléry. No longer need we gaze enviously at the proud Knights of Pythias or the sportive Elks. For if an idea advocated by Mra. Frank Page of Boston can be carried out we will all be eligible to buttons. More than that, we will have to wear buttons. For Mrs. Page insis ried men and wom Delled by law to display special badges isgued by the State to denote celibacy, while married men and women, and widows and widowers of every variety, whall carry special insignia making known thelr present or previous con- ition of servitude. “People may regard this suggestion as @ mere joke,” sala Mra, Page in dis- cussing her novel scheme; “but that does not make it so, The young woman who haa kept company with @ young man for months, has grown to care for him and hag suddenly found out that he {s married and has children, will regard the suggestion seriously, for she knows the game of deceit that ts wo frequently played. TRADE A BUTTON FOR A MAR. RIAGE LICENSE. “1 think that every man on becoming twenty-one years of age and paying his poll tax should receive a button. This button should bear the man’s name, the State and city he comes from, the year he paid his tax and a number, When this man marries and applies for a license the button should be refurned to the office from which he received it." Mrs, Page does not say whether the bachelor’s button shall be worn in the coat lapel, dangled from the wateh fob or cons 4 inside the coat like ® “plain clothes" man's shield, or per- haps they may be carried like an au- tomobile license, ‘Will they be “good form” with evening clothes? And when a young man stands before the Diushing queen of the ballroom to ask for the next waits, wil) her argus-eyed mother or chaperone insist upon the production of a Dackelor’s button before allowing him write his name om her charge’ jance card? Will bachelors going to Burope sub- let the buttons of eligibility to lone. some married men, whose wives are 'trisking at summer resorte? Why not?
