THK NEURASKAN-HKSPKR1AN. r- - - ; MEET HIM WITH A Itnle Thni Elicits n Protent From Married Women, "1 do vlsl 801110 out would write n fow rules foi men.." said n young mar ried woman recently. "I'm awfully tired of read I n,; in magazines and newspapers that I must meet my hug liand when lie eomes liome from hla olllee 'pleasantly and elieerfully,' Hint tlie house must lie like a new pin, I lnrsi lie prettily gowned, the dinner iinisi he daintily cooked and served and that ho mustn't be worried with n roc ilal of the troubles of the day, no mailer If delirium .mpervenes for me. "Those precepts are all right theoret ically and under ordinary circum stances are practical. Every woman follown them instinctively who wishes to retain her husband's admiration, but why aren't there a fow laws of thia sort laid down for men to follow' "Why isn't there some one to tell them to look cheerful when thoy come iu and to forbear to grumble If dinner is a trlllo late for any good reason, to bo a little sympathetic and affection 4ite and remember that theirs are not the only troubles In Hie house? 'According to thomlinary writer, a woman's whole married life should be spent In practicing expedients to keep her husband's lovi from growing cold, while ho apparently may pursue any course he pleases, civil or uncivil, ty rannical or gentlemanly, and bo sure of retaining hers. "This may not bo the masculine idea of the cast' ut all; the sterner sex may not really expect to get the whole globe and give nothing in return, but It is not the writer's fault If they don't. I sedulously keep all such articles iiway from John, for he's a very good husband, and I'm afraid such litera ture would put ideas into bis bend and spoil him. "Now. poor unenlightened soul, he has an idea that my side of the part nership lias its own worries, and ho tries to help me straighten them out. but who knows how he would change If he over discovered that he Is really made of china and has to be handled With cate to keep from being broken?"

"There's a very general idea abroad In the laud that men don't care to board iu a house where there are chil dren," said one of the sterner sex yos torday, "but that is, I believe, a groat mistake, just as It is an error to imag ine that men generally don't like the little ones. No doubt there are a fow crusty old bachelors In the world who would bo horribly annoyed by patter ing foot and shrill little voices in tlie halls and on the stairs, but 1 must con fess I like to hear those noises, and t find by questioning a number of my friends all young, unmarried men thai they do also. The children give n sort of homy atmosphere that's very pleasant to oven the most comfortless places. "Taking ono thing with another. I believe men are fonder of children than women are anyhow. What 1 mean la that more men than women 4i n; fond of them. I know plenty of the gentler rox who wouldn't think of going to a boarding bonne where 3'oungsters were admitted, and I know just as many men who seek out those places and obtain a crtain amount of comfort and satisfaction in their lone ly lives in making friends with the youngsters ami spending valuable time repairing sundry broken toys or telling wonderful stories in which giants tig tire to an amazing extent. "A child's affection Is a very delight ful thing, and most men feel flattered to be the object of even a mild liking on the part of tlie small tyrants. There 41 ro half a dozen little ones In the house where I board, and 1 am the familiar friend of every one of them. It's a very delightful and aluiorblng ac quaintance, and I'm fast developing Into a story toller of hucJi marked abil ity that I'll make a fortune In this way, no doubt, after awhile." Detroit .Free Press. The Reporter Returned, but tlie .'Mule Wiih a Total I.ohn. Harmon W. Ib-owu of Ohio, who held a responsible place on the stall' of Geu eral Uawllns during the civil war. tells the following story of tlie general's treatment of an Intrusive reporter: "One day before Vlcksburg the cor respondent of a certain paper went to General Uawllns for news. "The general pondered a moment and took mo one side. '"Take this young innu,' he said, 'up to the top of those trenches within a stone's throw of the enemy. Take him up there ami lose him. I don't care what happens. Understand?' "I said I did, aud wo started through the lines. Both of us wore mounted. I pointed out a crest overlooking tlie en emy and told him ho could get a good view from that point. "'Ain't you coming with moV he asked. " 'No.' 1 replied. 'I know all I want to know.' "So he slatted alone. As soon as the top of bis hat aud the tips of his mule's ears showed above the crest there came a vollej of musketry ten yards wide that cut the air like a big knife blade. The crown of bis hat was sliced off as with shears. He managed to drop to tlie ground in safety, but the perse ver 'r After the firing ceased the correspond ent crawled to the spot where I was. "'Did you learn what you wanted to know?' 1 asked. "'KhV gasped the correspondent, wiping Ids race and looking at his hands to see whether they were bloody. 'What 1 wanted to know? Oh. yes. of course. The enemy are over that ridge all right.' "When we returned to hondquarters. General Uawllns saw us and hailed mo. I went Inside his tent. " 'I thought I told you to lose that confounded reporter somewhere,' he said testily. '"I did the host I could, sir.' I an swered. 'Ilo came back, but 1 have the honor to report the mule a total loss.'" Saturday Evening Post. THE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MUSIC xb h U U I Mil, U 0 is opposite the Ciunpus.
