Indianapolis Journal. What is worm) In this world than a bad woman, or lx'tter than a good, pint? woman? Tho dovll would bo almoxt anhamod to own the former aw one of his co-worketn, while angela would SHsocInte with a noblo woman. The "ribbon craze" and ttlrallar craze htrlke the young ladleo of our land oe caHlonally, but just now the mont promi nent craze of the day Is the "coupon craze" that htu struck most every daily now published. Homo papers are not content with one cou)on a day but offer their readers two and devote connldora ble space to tell what a liberal offer they are making. One coupon a day Is all right, but two is crowding the busi ness a trifle. Klla Wheeler Wilcox does not have much faith in the idea of a woman marrying a man with tho hopo of re forming him afterwards. She says: "It is my belief that a man who has not the self-resitcct to save himself will not respect any woman enough to be saved by her. I do not think any man should marry until he is thirty, and if he has not reformed at that age it Is a very unsafe experiment for any woman to attempt to reform him. His moral vision Is very limited if he has not discovered by that time that there is nothing in dissipation but degradation and death." How apt we all are to want to attend to agreeable duties first and leave the disagreeablo duties until the last, and If possible leave them undone. With this frailty of humanity in view Henry Ward Beecher gave the following ad vice: "Take good care of disagreeable duties. Attend to these first. Never select the things that you want to do, and shirk upon others the things that you do not want to do. Whorever you .are, choose tho disagreeable things. You will get your pay in your manhood. You cannot grow In any other way so ' fast. You may be angry with some .shiftless man who is willing to put on you work that he ought to do, you may feel that there is injustice in it, but you cannot afford to be unfaithful because . somebody else is." One of the groat failings of the human family is thoughtlessness In Hpocch.ospe ciully Is this noticeable with tho gontler flex, generally speaking. A writor who has given it considerable thought says: "The groat lesson that woman has yet to learn is to think before she speaks. In comparison with tho thoughtless tongue the pen in a woman's hand is as harmless as a dove. All too prevalent In these days Is the spirit of nruel and though tluss criticism among women. Thoughtless ness of speech bus dono more to injure woman than any single element in her life. It has luid her open to the churgo of Ixjing unreliable nnd oftimes justly so. It has kept from her confidences that were hers by right; It has stood in the way of her progress: it has placed her innumerable times In false positions; it has judged her as being cold where she was in reality affectionate; cruel whore she was gentle. It Is the one incon sistency in woman's nature that has baffled many a one anxious to believe in her." A great problem which the next cen tury will have seriously to tuko in hand and finally solve is this: Are rich men likely to prove of any reul social use, or will It bo bettor to abolish the institu tion? The day may come when the world will have agreed to abolish rich men altogether as an absolute institu tion. And certainly no anarchist or communist is working so desperately to hurry on that day as are the rich men themselves. During the whole of an tiquity the entire art education of the people, and their amusements, specta cles and luxuries, were provided for them freely by the wealthy. During the whole of the mediaeval period vast resources were spent for the public ben efit in tho way of churches, religious offerings, ecclesiastical and acadomic endowment. Thocathedruls, ministers, churches were the gifts of the rich and were themselves free museums, guller les of art, music hulls und even thuutrcs. When tho medluuvul world ended, much was done of the same kind, tout lu less uoble and munificent ways, by the kings, princesses, courtier and gran dees. In our ago the possessors of hereditary wealth are mostly Inclined to spend It on themselves and their per (tonal friends. Frederick Harrslon, in the Forum.
