THE EW MAIOE.. I ( pologics to E. A. 1 'oe. i j Once upon a midnight dreary, while I wandered weak and weary, j Dowu a street of our great city, where I'd often been before; Walking on, a sudden feeling ctnie to me ' as I saw wheeling, (ienlly o'er the pavement stealing, so m e- tning like a uympli ol yort; Surely 'tis a mnid, I muttered, maiden from the Turkish shore. Simply this and nothing more. But there bad been various rumors that the maids were decked in bloomer-. And I thought me, this is surely ope that I have seen belore: Yet where had the figure vanished? Was i lie form of beauty fam ished? Had the Goel of Fashion bauisbed all the dress that I adore!1 No, 'tis Dot a female, said I; but a man gone Wilde with lore. 'Tis a male and nothing more. Presently my soul grew strontjer; hesita ting then no longer, "Are you man or maiden?" said I. "Tell tne truly, I implore." What was my snrpri-e on hearing that strange being, Dotbing letring. Say to me wilh voice so cheering: "I am maid, sir, to the core.'' Yes. she jumped from oft" her cycle. Hay ing on the starlit shore: ' I am maid toreverniore."' I bethought me for a second, then 1 to the maiden beckoned, Drew" her to one side, and there the sentiments of my heart did pour; Said unto her: "Will you ever from these -hocking garments screr? Make me answer, shall I never see the skirts that once you wore? When will you again adopt the costume that your mothers bo'c? ' Quoth the maiden "Nevermore.'' And the maiden, ever rlittiug, still is sit ting, still is silting, On those wheels with tires inflated, and around the streets doth soar, While her pants hare all the seeming of Ja.ks blouse with apples teem ing. Or a maid who in b. r dreaming bad for got to cover o'er; But the common sense evolving from the heathen days of yore. Shall be lifted nevermore. Irwin Mnsgrove, in Cycling West. WHY DO WE I0 ITT Perhaps some sage can tell me died, I'd like to know for, iii- The secret of the titles that I hear where'er I go. There's Brown, who studied medicine, at taining some renown. Whose w ife 1 bear referred to now as ''Mrs Dr. Brown. ' What reason for the custom can the wise ones give to me? Why not ao well reier to her as "Mrs. Brown, M. 1),V Because O Shea is one ou the bench why should we always say. In speaking ol his charming wife, 'There's Mrs. Judge O'Shea?'' Is -he p. judge by marriage? Was she wed ded lo the court? There should be some g od reason while the title she should sport. If one should wed a justice, pray advise me would she be Entitled to be known by all as "Mrs. Jones,,, p.?" If not. w hat reason can we ive for speak- ; ing ns w e .1 . Of "Mrs Major OunnonbaH' Or Mrs. Bishop P. w." I)j titles go to families for use of ev ry onr.-' And if they do, why aren't they used by daughter anil by son?
