WEEKLY - NORWA‘LH-v- GAZETTE. ' \ °Truth above all things.’ Entered in the Post ()flice as a Newspaper FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 1898. Isaac II. Bromley. The death of Isaac H. Bromley re- moves from the journalistic field a man of great ability. His wit was spontan- eous, his satire cutting, and his logic (convincing. He has entered into the peace for which those who loved him are sure thathe has longed, yet his taking away will deeply afflict a large circle of warm and faithful friends. As they think of the long and loyal firiendship, their hearts will be heavy within them because he has gone out of their sight. EVE’SEAIIBLINGS. «EOMMENTAND—G—OSSIP AMONG THE WOMEN. BY ONE or THEM: - .i . ‘2.~_-—_—-=Q _ . All'On'e has to do in this world is to employ his Or her eyes to read such les- sons as life is continually presenting. If we insist upon going along ’in blind- inld‘bat fashion we can’t be expected to see, know or care 'what is going on WES, but wideawake, alert and pro- greesifve; We are bound to have mun- dane; affairs leave their influence on heart and braiin and the moral Of the story with its big “M” indelibly stamp- ed in memory. , . . - ' This pfieamble leads the writer of these lines to observe that she is going to. preach to married folks to-day. To them she wishes to say that if they are not absolutely radiantly satisfied with their partners in life for goodness sake let them act so at least in public. . The other morning with no paper to engross and no special pleasing thoughts to absorb her time and at- tention the editor of this department spent her time in a train in watching amarried couple obviously, pointedly, and, persistently ignore each other throughout a journey by rail that had they been engaged would have been all too short for the many things they would have had to say to each other. She looked out the window. he read the paper, and when the train reached astation where she was to alight he did not more than mo re to let her pass him, not deigning to bestir himself to , assist her from the car. Back of them were a couple un- married and evidently tremendously interested in what they had to say to each-Other. She chattered gaily to im, he replied in kind. His paper was folded, nor did he give eridence by any surreptitious glances toward it, that he would rather read the war news than listen to her woman’s gossip. If this were veneer than every woman begs for more of it in the married man.‘ If he is not interested let him at 3233*; try. to appear as though he were and keep ennui and boredom covered at least in public. It is such a palpable expose of marital,infelicity that adds to the army of masculine cynics and makes women as calculating and cool- headed as they are. Have. you seen her—the girl with the new waist line? She has just appeared .3! the summer resorts and is the most able young person of the hour. She has changedthe position of her waist line, and, t0 the astonishment of all who behold her, is wearing her belt (than angle of 45 degrees. To start at the beginning, she puts Emacorsets on much lower down than she used to, drawingthem specially lOw En the front. Thenshe discards the old emventional belt, which encircled her waist horizontally. In the place of this Old-time belt she now wears a tip-tilted belt, which is :ionspicuously high at 'the back and Bow at the front. In fact, this modern woman copies more than any one else theNorth American Indian squaws in The manner Of wearing her belt. And this novel way of donning her gienic than the old fashion, for even if the belt is tightly drawn the pressure is down rather than up, and in no way interferes with the vital organs. The belts are invariably made up of silk, which are striking in design, and gay in color, and they are fastened with buckles so costly that they be- come an extremely expensive novelty. g gar‘ry‘l‘ez a/(gie. ‘ --‘ V 7 Feminine Chat. « Life is as we make it—roseate or dull and cloudy. . If your hair won’t curl, don’t try to make it in this weather. The world would be infinitely bright- er if the crickets were out of it. Warm weather frequently depresses a man while it exhilarates a woman. Why is it that matrimony so often sounds the death knell of congeniality? It is a wise woman who makes women her friends in preference to men. Many a woman who wants to say something and can’t, writes a little note. A few rings will afford a woman an excuse for going gloveless all her days. Even a dog can be glorified into true companionship when you are living alone. N 0 man was ever so much in love that he couldn’t eat his dinner—pro- vided it was a good one. When Johnnie comes marching? home again the summer girl will feel [that she has not lived in vain.
