EVE’S RAMBLINGS.

SJMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG
THE WOMEN. BY ONE
OF THEM.

 

 

Perhaps, indeed, as a rule, we suffer
.HOI'C for our follies than'for our sins,
and often the Nemesis which follows
thcformer is a more severe torturer
than that which punishes the latter.

Those unwise letters that we, have
written l—those rash confesssions !——
those silly speeches I—the corns we
Rave so heedlessly trodden on and the
min we have so thoughtlessly given !—'-

No country home can be truly ideal
unless it is well screened—translate
this any way you choose.

The youth who whistles constantly
may be a sort of embodied sunbeam,
but he is a horrible nuisance also.

\Vhy is it that even the most sensible
of us have a Wild desire to see profes-
sional people, off the stage ‘3

Hours become days, and days hours,
according as we are away from or with
the one who constitutes the world for
us.

It is' well to have a good opinion of
one’s self, but too high a one most fre-
quently results in a catastrophe for the
individual unduly inflated.

One can be far more lonely in a
crowd where not one single heart beats
in sympathy than when perfectly
isolated, yet secure in the knowledge
that some on does care for her.

Is there anything more irritating
than a dining table that wobbles? This
does not intend to suggest the motion
that comes from too copious libations,
but the actual wavering due to furni-
ture invalidiSm.

The fiendish delight that the driver
of the street sprinkler takes in spatter-
ing your best frock is only second to
the joy of the motorman when he can
cause you to bounce into a car as
though suddenly shot from a cannon.

Magnificent New Equipment for the

Pennsylvania Railroad’s Congressional
' Limited. ‘

The Congressional Limited of the
PennsylvaniaRaiiroad run ning between
New York and Washington has just
been equipped with entirely new cars

of regal appointments.

In external appearance the train
closely resembles the new Pennsylvania

Limited—red name board, cream be-
tween the windoWs, and dark green

fieliemwiake in the long reaches of the
night, and govover all the events of the
past and its mischances.

Tat-11h ofhthe- Nemesis for sin !——she
who punishes folly is to the full as ter-
rible and as persistent.

‘ A 'gaucherie committed fifty years
ago can bring the blood to the cheek
now .when remembered, where, per-
haps, a sin elicits 'but a half kind of
:Iighing wonder-—“How could. I have
done 'itl”—and "How I wishl had
motif”

Fearitds-a curious fact—Lyet it is a
fact4~fliat we suffer more from shame
than fi‘Om remorse,‘ the ’condemnati on
of our “associates having I more power
Over us than that of our secret cOn-
Science. . - . .

Nemesis track‘s us in our children.
We bring them up badly, and they
punish us by their ill-conduct, either
bringing, disgrace on the family name
or Sorr0w to. themselves, or sorrow
with futile regret to the parents by
their undutifulness. ,.

The indulgent parents, who allow.
their young ones a free hand from the
beginning—who check no faults, lower
n0 crests, punish no mis eeds—reap
their reward in the neglect, and insol-
ence of their children, who, never hav-
ing been taught self-control, have nev‘
er learned it, and are now quite unable
to bend their necks to the yoke of dis‘
cipline.

wholRéof. their lives turn. If home be
dull to the girls they leave it, no mat

father, who doubts the wisdom of girls
living alone in independence—Of the
mother who needs their care, their
help, their companionship at home.

Ifitii‘e‘y. are dull and consent to re-
main at home, they make the place like

and those who have spoiled them have
now to bear the brunt and pay the-
heavy bill.

It is their Nemesis—as grim as is
that form which punishes the children
.ior the sins of the fathers, and so heaps
onthe heart and conscience of those
who see the result Of their own mis-
desds a burden of pain that death only
