Of Interest to Women

+ *♦ Miss "Winem" The Society Belle of Her Set—Why Was She So-Popu-lar? —Her Encouraging Words and Sweet Temperament Won The Admiration of'all Who Knew Her.

Miss Belle Winem has the reputation of being the most popular girl In her set The old ladies find her “a most sensible young woman without any nonsense about her,” the girls think she “Is perfectly dear,” ana the young men cry for her. The following conversations were overheard. Can it be that they explain her popularity? (Scenb. Ballroom. Time, 12 p. m.) (Principal characters, Miss' N «Winem and Cholly Chaff dancing). He —I say that’s a jolly little rag you have on. She—So glad you like it Bully two step, isn’t it? He—Yes, but thfe floor’s rotten. The music is great though. She —Perfectly dandy. He—Well that was a winner. Best Fve had 4 this evening. She —I just love to dance with you. Tou have the dancing of all the other men beaten to a finish. (Scene, Mrs. Upplift’s Drawing-room Time 11 p. m.) A thin young man in a badly fitting coat and a large head of hair has worked himself into a violent rage at something and is taking it out on the piano. The guests are concealing their annoyance under a thick conversational pitch. (Principal characters, Miss Winem and Howard Hybrow, a serious young man with an, ingrowing affection for music). * He—l am so glad X am to enjoy ♦Mu with you instead of somd brainless little chatterer who would spoil my whole evening for me. / She—lsn’t it odd, but I was thinking th# same , thing? I mean I was congratulating myself I was with a xm>n who really loved music, and not one of those foolish boys who neither cared for it nor understood it. He—How my soul leaps to hear these glorious truths of Wagner thundered on the silence! He makes us see the beauty of the impossible. She —And the possibilities of the beautiful. He —Through him we may worship the simplicity of the simple. She —And the soulfulness of the soul. He —These grand chords make plain the omeness of the one. She —Their majesty strikes us dumb with the awfulness of the awful. He—How delightful it is to be so comprehended. She —I have enjoyed the evening so much. It is so rare one meets a really congenial person. (Scene, Tea Room of the Plaza. Time, 5 p. m.) (Principal characters, Miss Winem and Dearest Friend. The waiter had Just placed their chocolate and two large ornamental bow’s of red ribbon, under which persistent search has sometimes been rewarded by finding E sandwich.) Miss Winem—What a perfectly darling hat! Dearest Friend—Do you really like it? Miss Winem— Immensely. It is so becoming. You are simply adorable in it 1, Dearest Friend—You are so comforting, dear. Miss Winem —Do you know that Tom Rox is simply crazy about you? Dearest Friend —Nonsense, dear. Miss Winem (with great earnestness)—Oh, but he is. He was up to see me last night and he could talk of nothing else. He thinks you are perfectly fascinating. He is simply Wild about you. Dearest Friend —Dear, I have been Intending to tell you that whenever you wanted my machine, it is quite at your disposal. I seldom go out in the morning. iU_ (Scene, Hotel piaza. Time, 10 a. m.) (Miss Winem is tfbffling Mrs. Krankey’s yam). Miss Winem —Oh, dear Mrs. Krankey, I don’t mind in the least' No, really I don’t care to join the others. I would much rather stay and talk with you. I know I seem very frivolous, dear Mrs. Krankey, but you know unless a girl does the things other girls do, people consider-' her odd and peculiar, and mamma doesn't wish me to be considered odd. And I always try to please dear mamma. But I don’t care for society in the least. It is so much more interesting to talk to you, dear Mrs. Krankey. Mrs. Krankey —■ I have always thought you. a most sensible young woman, my dear. You are more like girls used to be in my day when they r dldp’t carry everything on the out■lde of their heads, and appear in the ballroom in a shoulder strap and with a silk scarf wrapped around their togs. Miss Winem —Oh, dear Mrs. Krankay, believe me, I appreciate such praise from you.

THE EVENING REPUBLICAN. RENSSELAER. IND.

A Jolly Good Grandma

Grandma Jamison tent a bit like the old-fashioned grandmothers you read about In books, who sit in a corner all day, In oap and neckerchief, always knitting, knitting. > Grandma Jamison played games with her grandchildren. She had games called, “Hot Butter Blue Beans, please come to supper/* “Poor Puss wants a Corner,” "Holst the Gates and Let King George and All Go By** and “Mammy, mammy, Ttptty-toe, 1 don’t care whether I work or not.** She always joined In the line that crept under the gates, some one had hold of her dress skirt, while she had hold of some one else’s dress skirt She made just the liveliest nicest “Mammy, tlpity-toe” you ever saw, and when she played “Poor Puss wants a corner” she could always sucoeed In getting one, while some little one would be left out. Then Grandma Jamison was a good, strong grandmother In spite of her 60 years. She did not think she was too old to work some, and she always had the knack of doing something that other people did not like to do. **Bhe could fry the best doughnuts and crullers and make the best cookies and pumpkin pies in the world,** her grandchildren said. If grandma cpuld have had her own way she would not have permitted her daughter to keep a hired girl, for she always insisted that hired help made more work than they did and she, at her age, oould work all around the best of them. Grandma Jamison's grandchildren never found a button off, or a hole In a stocking. Grandma’s eagle eyes and useful fingers always attended to that. No puckered up things with safety pins for her. ■» * Now, all grandmas I ever knew are self-sacrificing. They will go without, at any time, for the sake of their grandchildren, and, Grandma Jamison is no exception. At one time It was found she had not a pair of whole shoes to her feet, and that her stockings and underclothing was one mass of dams. Now she had been given money to buy such articles, but, Instead of using It on herself, slipped it in the bank, saying: “The children would need it more sometime.” One day Grandma Jamison was taken very 111 and lay upstairs in bed for weeks. Then everything seemed to go to sixes and sevens and there seemed to be no more peace no comfort in the house. A lady attempting to comfort the daughter, sakl: “One cannot grieve so much at an old person’s death. They are generally a burden and a care.” “A burden and a care,” repeated the daughter, hotly; “it waß us a burden and a care to her. I can see It all now. She has been keeping us together In comfort for years and I never saw it before." Grandma Jamison got well that time, and lives yet, nearly 80 years of age, and though her eyes are dim, her spirit Is undaunted still. She now lives with a granddaughter, still the same loving creature she always was. Blessed Is the one who has a grandmother.

AUSTRALIAN OSTRICH FARMING.

Has Not Been a Highly Profitable Undertaking to Date.

The first attempt to raise ostriches in Australia was made by a Mr. Malcolm, who In 1880 brought 100 young birds from South Africa to South Australia. In the following year the parliament of South Australia enacted a law which granted to the first person who should exhibit 260 ostriches more than one year old about 2,400 acres of land suitable for ostrich farming. The conditions were satisfied tjy the South Australian Ostrich Company, which was founded in 1886 with a .capital of $76,000. The company received land near Port Augusta on Spencer Bay, but In spite of this assistance the company has never paid a dividend, although It now possesses 1,100 ostriches, all of which were imported from South Africa. There is a still larger ostrich farm on the shore of Lake Albert, and smaller farms are scattered through the colony. In New South Wales ostrich farming was first attempted in 1897 by Barracluff, who imported six pairs gt ostriches from northern Africa, and now possesses eighty-four birds. Queensland and Victoria possesses only small ostrich farms, which have not produced very encouraging results. In all theer are now about 2,000 ostriches in Australia. The inferior feathers are used at home and the more valuable ones are exported chiefly to Germany.

“Cowboy" was once a sinister word in American politics. In the Revolutionary War the “cowboys" were a set of Tories in Westchester county. New York, popularly so called because of the brutal roughness with which they treated their Whig or rebel neighbors. It was, no doubt, in memory of them that the name of "cowboys” was given in 1861 to certain people in Connecticut and other parts of New England who were almost secessionists. The number of telephone messages In this country in 1907 was eleven billion, an increase of six billion in lire years.
