And the first youth was called “Fickle.” But the second youth was a Paragon, and his middle name was “Steady.” And the mother of the damsel admonished her, sage ing: “Wherefore, thou Stupid One, dost thou spend thy SUNDAY evenings with Fickle? For he ts a shallow. brain and a butterfly! “But Steady is a model man! And ff thou couldst. STAND him, he would make thee a perfectly devoted x husband!

EW YORK welcomes the French envoys to-day with bannors 4 flying and hats waving. Underneath, the city has a profound, deeply moved sense of what its visitors represent and why (yey are here. But during their brief stay it is of friendship rathor than war that we would have them think. To Marshal Joffre, defender of France, hero of the Marne, New Yorkers have already paid the tribute of an interest and admiration given to few living men. To see him in person is a privilege that must | anake even the slowest pulse beat faster. | To M. Viviani and the other members of the French Mission, dis-| tinguished men who serve France with heart and brain and hand, New York extends a welcome which it hopes they may always find it pleasant to remember. { The British representatives do not arrive until Friday.
