cases that we're more carefully inquired
into, and in which special aid was
given. Most Of the applicants were
strangers, and many, of course. were
downright frauds. But the old man
proceeded upon the principle that il is
better to be deceived by many than to
deny one deserving sufferer. He could
afford, he said, to give half dollar to
anybody who asked for it, irrespective
Of the merits of the applicant, and
time did not permit him to inquire too
minutely into the circumstances His
heaviest week during any season ag-
gregated 81 800, it was considerable
money TO spend on mendicants. but,
as the old man said, the ministers
would take care OF those who belonged
to their denominations, and some one
must take care of those who we're
neither Episcopalians nor Methodists,
Presbyterians nor Catholics. 1t was
those who had no religious affiliations
who were most liable to suffer without
any resources or remedy, and it was
for ibis class that he kept up his dis
tribution of half dollars,

A Girls Idea OF "a tarpet.


A frivolous young lady demanded a
voice with the rest of the family in
the selection of a new parlor carpet.
Indian designs and colorings figure
conspicuously in the new goods, as do
floral figures of light shades. In
many OF the new carpets the borders
match, while in others there are har
monious contrasts. The fashion of
putting large rug in the center oil
the room, with the polished or mar
quetry floor exposed as a border, has
apparently passed its acme of popu.
larity. Although rugs are sold as
frequently as before, they are often
used on thresholds and hearths. In,
grain rugs are having a run. They
come in all colors and aesthetic de.
signs, some Of them being clever imi-
tations OF the Kensington art carpets.
But | began to tell a true story to
illustrate the nicely of educated fe
male calculation in producing the
best possible personal effects.
u don't care so much about the
colors, said the girl, NOR whether
we get regular carpet or a rug; and
most of the pattern may consist of
small designs, if you like, so long as
there are a few figures in it of oblong
shape, and about eight by fourteen
inches in size. really must insist
on those dimensions, and | want the
outlines to be distinct. Why am |
particular about these points? Simply
because my feet are rather large. Ny
knowledge of art is sufficient to teach
me that the eye judges of size by com
parison. If my foot is put out for
view on or beside figure in a carpet
that is smaller than itself, don't you
zee that it shows for all its actual d.
mansions; but if it rests on distinct
design OF three or four times its own
area, it is apparently reduced. So our
carpet must have few big figures in
it for my personal use. AS soon as
you have made the selection, | will
know by the colors how to make pur
chases of hosiery for the season. The
exactions of dress nowadays require
harmony Of hues."

How Peter Cooper Dispensed
Charities.
New York Times.

During the winters of 1915, 1875
6, and 1867, the sufferings of tho
poor in this city from privation, cold,
and want of employment we're unpre-
cedented in the history Of the metrop-
oils. Every day during these long
winters, from 3 o'clock in the alter
noon until 6:30, Mr.. Peter Cooper sat
in his Office or library on Lexington
avenue, and no one, however shabby
in dress, was refused admission. On
the table before him were piled hun
dreds of newly coined half-dollars and
piles of one>dollar greenbaoks, and
these piles were replenished every
hour by the servant in attendance.
His rule was to give every applicant
half dollar Ia any event, aud if the
case seemed to be a specially urgent
one, the douceur was doubled, with a
request either to write history of the
case, have it authenticated, by some
clegyman or other authority, and send
it in for further consideration. AS
early as 2:30 O'Clock in the afternoon
crowds Of poverty stricken people
men and women Of every nationality
and position in life-might be seen
gathered in front Of the Lexington
J avenue residence, and the amount
expended often amounted to 5000 in q
