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

 

This is indeed a world of rush and
bustle. Time and tide wait for no man.
if you grow weary in the endless race,
and fall down, the man behind you
will, trample you to' earth and the on-
smrd rush of humanity will follow suit;
thus in less time than it takes to tell,
it you are forgotten; for what? Man
has not time to ask that question. He
rushes madly on. and on, in the terrific
pursuit of progress. The demise of his
Ellowmau is momentarily considered
211115th doleful'subject of death is cast
aside for future reflection by this ambi-
uious human .mo'rsel. .

And\ it is in this very mad rush that
irreparable deeds are committed by
these who have not time to refleCt.
IThe dispoiling of nature in its most
gorious wealth of beauty is not the
least of the blind folly practiced by
Elle progressive fiend.

I read with unutterable regret of the
demolishing of the 'palisade's. It is a
aadspectacla and. a sinister shame.

Th‘ére is no time for tender thoughts
cor—delving after the sweet things in
life. Thereisno timefor the admira-
tion or consideration Of any onevthing.

Why‘did the C1 eator place upon this
mundane sphere such beauties as the
gallsades, the river, t1 ees 01' flowers
which he in his magnificent majesty
conceived as the grandest and most
hi'Eliant Splendor? Why did he con-
descend to place them for an unappre-
ciative people? .

The destruction of the palisades on‘
our scenic Hudson is nothing more nor
less than a‘ crime.

But the feeble cry of a few against
the multitude who have no eyes for
nature‘s beauty is a useless one. The
rampart of pales along the beautiful
Hudson at e to be cut down to be used
as paving stones in the sheets of the
Greater New York. And slowly, one
by one, are the natural graces being
eifaced from the eastern p01 man of our
country, and we shall soon have noth-
ing to rest o'ur t11 ed stone- -bu1ned eyes

upon.

And here in Norwalk on a lesser
male is..the work of the dispoiler going
on. An instance of it can be cited in
the much debated question of the cut-
ting down of the trees in South. Main
street. Why should there need to be
any such. question to the soulful man?

‘ Why has not the love of nature and the
admiration for the beautiful, been in-
senlcated in the mind of youth? '

It should be. It is high time to call
ahalt in the ruthless and-wanton trade
of the dispoiler.

they would just revel in fictitious mis-
in tune in order to make life more
intei esting.

A p1etty girl says the power of the
press is usually waist- ed.

The dollar you pay back looks twice
as large as the one you borrowed.

Ice cream is always served for des-
sert after the cold wave has set in.

W’hen the pianist makes the instru-
ment fairly talk it is called a piano
recital.

The man who says he can marry any
girl he pleases is seldom able to please
one.

Even intellectual women have an
idea that a thermometer helps keep a
l‘OOIIl warm.

Love is a chain that holds two hearts
together, but it doesn’t always hold
the dog.

. What a happy world this would be if
we could only see others as we see our
selves.

 

 

Rare Business Opportunity.

A well assorted stock of groceries
and housekeeping goods in an old and
popular stand will be sold at a great
‘sacrifice; home and wagons and every-
thing ready for an immediate openingr
to a waiting patronage.
