P. O'Connor, wife of the Irish M. P. This panegyrist finds American women bewitching in their delicate yet dashing beautr, and in their girlhood, particularly at the age of seventeen, altogether lovely. No wo men of any continent, in Mrs. Connor's opinion, can compare with ours. Thus the tributes continue to come. Of all risiting celebrities who nave com mented on the American girl none save only the Gaekwar of Baroda has named her but to praise. The Daisy Miller days are past and forgotten. But why all these bouquets for American womanhood and not even a solitary bontonniere for the American man? Is H not he who by ranking her only a little lower than the angels and respecting her slightest wfch has made ber what she is? He pays the golf club dues and the riding-academy bills which give the American girl her splen did physique. The bunch of violets in ber corsage is his gift, as are the gowns which make her the best dressed of women, the jewels she wears, ber mat inee seats and cabs and ber summer at the seashore. In what other con tinent are there such husbands and fathers! Out, of the profusion of compliments for the American girl, which have be gun to cloy like over-indulgence In chocolate creams, a few should be spared for the American man who pro videg the wherewithal N Y.

The demend for tin's typical Amer ican comedy this season is so great, that some cities have been necessarily slight ed in the intinerary arranged by Man ager Henry W. Savage, So that this city is fortunate in being located on the line of travel chosen for Mr. Sav age's fine organization company, which, by the way, is said to have been selected with greater care than any Mr. Savage hag organized. Rabbits caue an annual loss in Aus tralia amounting to $65,000,000. Science proves helpless in trying to annihilate the pest.

SAN FRANCISCO'S UPLIFT- According to the bulletin of progress published by the California Promotion company, September hag been a not able month in the progress of San Francisco toward recovery from the ef fects of the big fire. Railroads enter ing the State report .that traffic has increased enormously, both on colonist and tourist tickets. Labor supply is atill inadequate. The population of the city is placed at 370,000. Cost of liv ing, excepting rents, is about the same as before the fire. During September, 1,050 building permits were issued. Bank clearings reached the amount of $198,712,503.47. In September, 1905, $168,329718.22, showing an increase of 18.04 per cenfl. Thirty-five thousand men are doing construction work and thousands more could be used. It is unfortunate that there are inadequate school facilities. Every school build ing in the city is crowded to the lira its, and there are 15,000 more children ready to enter. In the rehabilitation of the various departments of the munlci ; pal life the schools appear to have been 'overlooked. It i a matter of real im portance that the children should be sent to school, and temporary -quarters should be provided as soon as possible. On the whole, the recovery of the city is reassuring, and if capital would not wage war on capital by raising the club of exorbitant rents, thus driving back the large and email business con cerns, the rehabilitation of the city would progress faster in spite of the jyolitical conditions, which produce a far-reaching sense of distrust among in vestors and citizens.

Habitual cheerfulness is but a step removed from habitual hap piness, and to be habitually happy means to get the best out of life no matter what happens, to surmount troubles in the easiest manner, and to help and encourage all with whom one comes in contact. by Ulackladder, Chagrined at the loss of his employer's daughter, he plots her ruin and forges papers on the Col onel, How well he succeeded is best told by witnessing a performance of "The Convict's Daughter," at the new Astoria Theater on Saturday, Oct. 20.
