EVE’S RAMBLINGS.

s; MMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG
THE. WOMEN. BY ONE
OF THEM.

I am glad to learn that a steamboat—
exen though it is the Belle Horton—is
Babe put on the N orwalk route this
week.

While the Horton is lewer than
Belles are usually we could put up with
that part of the program, but when the
managers propose to run on the old
schedule time, 1 £01 One propose to en-

to: a. protest

We often hea1d remarks last year at
the poor patronage of the lsteamboat,
hutifia man only knew how long it
takes the average woman to shop and
how many bargain counters she is
obliged to visit.- he would understand
tim. we women want more time in New
York. .
mAman cannot do half her shop-
- sing inmne day under the time table
arranged“ for the steamboat this year,
and the. management may again scom-
planar of the lack of pat1onage unless it
changes the leaving time and gives us
ionger hours in the city.

For one I would prefer that the boat

~ "Meade New York at 4 o’clock, which

wouldigi‘ve one a fair time in which to
121311”. the stores. 4

Of course such an arrangement would
lead us home some time after 1 o ‘,c10ck
but when a woman is out for a shopping
sour time is no object to he1 p1 ov1ded
however that it is of sufficient length.

I am sure if this arrangement was
Singlet-he: patronage of the boat would
he increased by several hundred each
week, and the management would dis-
cover that the public is heartily in ac-
cord with our suggestion.

The Oldsing Of the stores at 6 o ’clock
relieves the necessity of the steamboat

:eachung South Norwalk at the former -
early. honr, as the freight coming by
boat could be deliver ed just as early as
it is now by the propeller. ,

It seems strange to me that ou1 city
fathers have done nothing about the
street flooding nuisance with which we
are inflicted. If they would put a sum-
mary stop-to it, I am sure they would
receive the thanks _of the cyclists as
well as of the ladies, who are compelled
to wade ankle deep in mud to cross the
street.

Norwalk has several nuisances that
could eaSily be abated, but I know of
none that would give more univ eisal
satisfaction were it stopped than the
intolerable street sprinkler, which
floods instead of sp1inkles.

I do hope that the council will stop
quarreling about flower mounds etc,
and take hold of this question and put
an ,end' to it .

Feminine Chat. _

Common sense grows by practice.

Thinking of the one you dislike
breeds hate. ,

The seashore and mountain exodus
hasbegun.

We tip the scales to find Our weight
and tip the waiter to save a wait.

It is strange but true that too much
success often produces serious failure.

Tact may not be able to remove
obstacles, but it knows 110w to get
around them.

A baby’s helpless ways bring out all
the. best there is in even hardened
sinners.

‘ The sure proof that summer has
(some is to be found in the reductions in
thc spl ing millinery.

Until you have tried to get a cross
baby to sleep you cannot 1ealize how
utterly impotent you are.

Whenever we make an unexpected
dollar we are very apt to think that we
are privileged to spend two.

Nine women out often, if they have
a little extra money, will put it into a
new hat rather than into a savings
hank. ‘

Ityour se; -. ants are not loyal to you, I

 

you might _as well open your doors and
let every one who will wander at
random through your house.

The very up-tO-date bicycle girl
wears a belt made of brass buttons and
has two rows of the same on the skirt
where the goods lap on either side of
the front breadth. '

A man at a bargain counter is such
an unusual spectacle that he generally
receives first-class attention, much to
the disgust of the women haunters of
these money-saving institutions.

Dinner bells . have banished .from
many fashionable homes and if any one
should ask you dinner has been relegat-
ed to the realms of the unknown in

some houses' in which “ the other half” ~

live.

The pedestrian who escapes being
1un dowu and injured by the whirling
bicyclist is lucky if to his burden of
woes is not added the sarcasm of ~Ith'e
wheelman, who inquires feelingly,
“Can’t you learn to look where you’re
going, any-how ‘:_" ”
