1 Lesson For Ladies.
New York Times. /


The story goes that lately at one of those
elegant country seats that adOrn the banks
Of the Hudson above Newburg, there was
an exodus of the entire body of women
servants, or, as it might be " more soothin'
the feelin's u to describe them, female en-
ployes Whether the coachman was I'M
propitious, the footman false, the mistress
we beg pardon, the lady-exacting, or
there had been visitation of some other
of those woes that so often harrow up the
souls of our household help, even rumOr
does not relate. But whether they went
away or were sent away, they departed in
a body, and left the house without fe-
male servant to make a bed or to cook a
dinner. But the lady, although left with
out help, proved not TO be helpless, and
showed that she was mistress not only Of
the house, but of the situation. She had
three daughters, one Of whom was mar
ried and gone, but the other two, fine
well~grOWn young women were still at
home
With these she Immediately held coun-
4el-such counsel as job was wont to hold
with the inferior notwithstanding benignly,
but deciding finally, the consequence of
which was that, considering the sore trials
to which they had all been subject for
years from the late departed damsels and
from 1.-the likes of them" the three ladies
undertook to do the whole work Of the
house-not small one. The result aston
ished them all. The daughters worked, of
course, under the instruction and constant
supervision of their mother; there were
men animals within call to act as hewers
of wood and drawers of water, and life at
once became unspeakably lovely. That
may, perhaps, put the change rather
strongly. But, for confusion, there was
order; for waste, economy; for sighted
work, thoroughness; beds and bed cham
ber5 became more attractive to the eye and
satisfactory 10 the body; the meat was not
over-roasted, and all that came from
butcher and grocer was consumed in one
household, and not in three or four
Moreover the ladies were surprised at the
shortness Of the time in which they could
get through their work, and at the satisfac
ton they found in it, cheerful perform

And look with glad eyes towards the jasper
