A POETI&.WIDOW. 1 .-. -
i Our mutual friend Spvkens
made a mash, to use the, language
of the worldly. He rdciden tally - be
came - acanainted with' ' the widow
McWinzy at a church social last fall
Shahas oome to the conclusion that
he is her natural affinity and wants
him for her fourth husband. Her
strong suit is poetry, or, as she ex
presses It, "human eesthetio rhynte;
the sweet, responsive echo of soul to
aovV - ;,.r . '
; ''Dear Mr. Spykens," aighrd ' the
widow the other evening, puckering
her mouth down to the size of a shirt
buttonhole, as it were; fypu have
lived and loved. The mellifluous
profundity of your sympathetic soul
has always required that you should.''.
." "Ah, yes, Mrs. McWinzy, 'you bet,

i '"Call me Hitty, dear, my name is
.Mehitabell and those most endeared
tome always call me Hitty." -( .
, "All right, "Hitty goes." . . t'.
; "Well, as' I was about, remarking,
my nature was aboriginally poetic,
avpay Up among the embarrassed
clouds ot Heaven s sublimated arul-
lery, . My first husband was a dear
I genial spirit, attuned to poetic bar-
mony, but nothing could , rhjme
with his name. ' It was Tulkington.
l Ufcea to weave it into poetic verse
by abreviatibg it to Tulky, but even
then it never would make . a smooth
rhyme with any other word. - Two
shert years.he loved and languished,
and then sank to eternel rest as soft
ly as though the springs of his couch
bad been tne springs of Jrarnasus.
"Beautiful I beautiful I exclaiojed
Spjkens, "what a rattling good obit
uary -you must . nave written for
him.V. f
"Ah, sighed the widow, "I tried
over a year to write seven verses
suitable, but 'perhaps might, have
succeeded had I not been ' wooed and
i Won by Jftson Uabcock. My new
I married life was bright and hopeful
j until I tried to merge it int6 poelry.
Tne culmination came when 1 com
posed twenty-seven verses, each ' one
rhyming his name,' the best of which
were mason, basin, face-on. Then he
closed the doors of ' his heart,' took
his over coat aad valise, and bade me
farewell forever, I
never i saw or
heard of him mgre.
"What a miserable narrow guage,
unappreciative wretch he must have
been. -i4 '1
The widow gave a responsive roll
of her dark eyes toward the" sympa

-' Fishing tadde which is costly does

and appliances for keeping ovty bur
glars. There are somahonses which
bristle with electrical ardware and
other contrivances which might rea
sonably be supposed to keep burglars
out, pas into wnica tne Durgxara man

ter and coal scuttles promiscously set
in likely places, on stairways and in

more i effected discouragements to

Yet, simple as are these obstacles to
I buglarioua progress, there are things
which even to a higher degree: com
bine simglicity with effectiveness.
Jersey Caty, ample in its resources
of invention for u tilling cats, comes
to the front with : the most j poative
preyeutitive of . burglary yet offered
The cat is shown to be a great engine
of confusion to burglars. A wicked
man entered the house of a lone wid
ow to steal and to destroy. There
was no male being in the house with
the). exception of the widows pet
Thomas Cat. Rashly the wicked in
truder mounted the stairway, light
ing a match as he ascended. The

I widow was awaiting him, for she had
j heaid lus footsteps. She was armed
with the cat; her beloved combination
of Offensive and defensive weapon.
TakiDg advantage of the light afford
ed by the stnnkine; of the burglar s
match TBher uttered a word of encour
ragdment to her pet and let him fly
full in the. burglar's face. There was
scratching; there was tearing; there
was flight) and there was swearing

To make the cat a handy means of
repelling burglars an aparatus like a
spring gun should be kept in the
I house, constructed as much as those
re from which circus performers are
bred put . at the audience. uch a
thing could, at moment's notice, be
loaded with one or more cats, which
could be discharged ' with disastrous
effect on intruders. The time may
come when no house will be consid-
ered properly furnished without

from end to end, and from side to side,

sage, ham, corned, beef, smoked sal- .

There era also tins of caviare and
of aardineB,' sprats and other kinds
of preserved fish. There is ' usually
a heap of radishes piled around a glass
of water, and whatever vacant spaces
are left about the table are filled huge
pieces of cheese Norwegian, IDutcn,
Swis and Englis. Ia the middle of
all there stands a bottle of aqua-vit,
or brandivin the white wine of the
country, which is a strong: spirit fla
vored with caraway seeds, and distant,
ly resembling kummel. The orthodox
fashion is to bejnn with a slice of
bread and butter, covered with flakes
of cheese, and with a nip of aqua-vit
as appetizer.. Those, ; however, who
do not care to breakfast on realishes

may take refuge in the hot dishes,
