EVE’S RAEBLINGS.
COMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG
THE WOMEN. BY ONE
OF THEM.
Sometimes in this life it seems as
though the sham and pretense were Of
more value than the open and above
board policy that we from childhood
have been taught to regard as best.
The world apparently delights in be-
Just as soon as the
“how” of a mystery is explained all
charm is gone, and the wise individual
who determines upon a secret course
which, if not exactly honest, ‘. appears
to please more than a revelation of the
real condition of affairs.
The theatre-going public waxes en-
thusiastic over a display of magic or
marvelous lightning-like changes of at-
tire, but when the so-called magician
shows them the mechanical devices by
which he helped to fool them, or the
artist reveals the secret of strings, but,-
tons, and numerous layers of, clothing
the act loses its charm and the ones
fooled are sorry to have their eyes
3
Opened.
Thus it goes always; preserve an illu-
sion and the resultant happiness all
around will be much greater than when
the prosaic actuality is forced to view.
.lspecially is this true in married life.
If the illusion of courtship can only
be in part carried over into the matri-
monial state greater happiness will be
the outcome than if the rude awaken-
ing jars even the honeymoon era.
It may seem a little thing to quote,
but there is one wise little woman 'who
declares she always keeps her company
manners for her husband, together
with her prettiest gowns.
If I must be cross and horrid, and
have to do ‘my hair up in kids to make
it curl, I intend to reserve those revel-
ations for persons whom I do not care
so much about pleasing.
Of course, in time he will find out I
have not an angelic disposition, and
also that my fluffy hair was not be-
stowed upon me by nature, but I do
not intend to enlighten him until I am
obliged to.” ‘
, Now, isn’t this sort of deceit prefer-
able to this out and out bluntness that
makes a woman feel privileged because
she really owns a man to show him at
once that his bargain is not such a
wonder as he supposed? Hide all the
faults you can.
They will creep out soon enough.
Wear a sunshiny countenance, even
though you are worried to death. The
world is much kinder to the smiling
woman than to the careworn one.
Assume the air of prosperity, though
you feel it not. In fact, put the best
foot forward every time, and though
you know youself of the Old shoe on the
other one, keep it out Of sight and the
world nine times out of ten will never
see it.

TRAINS CRASH.
Four Freight Cars Wrecked and' Set on
Fire.
A through frieght on the Port Ches-
ter branch of the New York, New Ha~
ven and Hartford Railroad stopped at
the entrance to the Mott Haven yard
to await a signal for entering, just
before 2 o’clock yesterday afternoon.
A flagman was sent to the rear to warn
approaching trains. A way freight
train of seven cars and a locomotive,
in charge of Oliver Peacock, engineer,
and Joseph Zeller,fireman,came thun-
dering down the track at full speed a
little later. The engineer at first did
not seem to notice the flagman, or the
train ahead. When the train was
about ten car-lengths away, however,
Peacock shut of the steam, reversed his
engine and jumped, followed by Zeller.
The train continued on its course, and
struck the caboose in the rear of the
freight train, overturning it and up-
setting the stove. The scattering coal
set fire to the car. Four freight cars
infront of the caboose were badly
wrecked, and one of them, containing
furniture, took fire from the burning
caboose.
The engineer, Peacock, was uninjur-
ed by his jump, but his fireman was
badly out about the face. He was
taken to the Harlem Hospital in an
ambulance. An alarm of fire was sent
out and the flames were extinguished,
but nottill the caboose had been destroy
ed and the burning freight ears serious-
ly damaged. The locomotive sustained
a loss of its pilot and smokcstake, but
was otherwise uninjured. It took its
train into the yard after the track had
been cleared.
