the Postofice and Interior departments
make up for it. In the dead letter office
number of women experts are engaged,
whose ability to make sense out Of
nothing is daily demonstrated. In
fact the officials say the office could not
be run without them. There is a Ger.
tain kind of patience that is peculiar to
the fair sex, necessary to decipher what
only the stupid or ignorant waiter could
possibly explain. But they do it.
Their explanation makes the direction
on letters which intelligent and very
experienced clerks could not make out,
as plain as copper-plate. But it is only
women who have genius who can dis
cover where letter ought to go; the
natural sympathy between their nature
and desire makes them the cleverest of
experts in putting missent or badly
directed letters or packages on the way
to the owner. Visitors to the dead
letter office say that the greatest curios-
ity there is the system by which "gone
wrong" package is put in the path of
right. The industry required to con-
yer an apparently meaningless super
scrption into a direction which
strug minded man can understand and
pstoffice clerk obey is solely the pos
session of women clerks in the dead
Letter Office.

Philadelphia Call.

Few persons are possessed of per-
fectly balanced nature. Amiability IS
apt to be allied with weakness; avigor-
Gus, pushing character is often impul-
sive, harsh and unjust. A reflective
mind is slow to act; a prompt mind IS
often wrong. So through all the ele-
ments of character. All the qualities
that 60 to make up perfect moral ma
ture rarely appear in one person. The
physical and intellectual do not percise-
ly conform the mental and moral are
not evenly balanced. There are those
possessed of stronger moral than men
tai natures. They constitute the spas
modic, impulsive element in society.
There are others whose intellect SO abso-
lutely control their moral natures that
nothing is admitted that cannot be rea-
soned out satisfactorily. There are per-
sons whose strong animal natures doml'
nate all else, and both mind and spirit
are subservient.
To regulate all these parts SO as to at
tain fair degree of equalityis the righ
step toward securing what may be calleo
balance in character.

Repentance.

What is it to repent? Is it alone
To feel the grief which bids us look to heaven
And for our sins, with ready tear and moin,
Cry out to be forgiven?
Is it on weary pilgrimage to go?
Is it to put hard penances between
Our dear indulgences, and, bowing low,
To cry "Unclean, unclean?"
Is it above the sacred page to pore;
To fast from dawn of day to set of sun?
Thus can we prove how sadly we deplore
The i'll that we have done?
Nay, nay 1t is not thus, with pious acts,
That we can hope to batter down the wall
Our guilt has raised between our own hard heart
And the great heart of all.
Who seeks with reverent feet the higher ways
Repents more truly Of the old paths trod
Than he who, lingering in the lowland prays,
"Be merciful, o God!"
Better than lifting up Of contrite eyes
Is the warm hand outstretched in helpful love
Better sweet mercy than sad sacrifice
Our penitence to prove.
With wordless arguments we thus confute
(Giving for worthless chaff the perfect wheat)
A weaker creed. 'Tis thus we bring festh frnit
For true repentance meet. -Cdrlota Perry.

Big Fortunes i'm Philadelphia
Germanto,cn Telegraph.

My attention has been called to a
statement recently published in one of
the Sunday papers purporting to be a
list of the millionaires of Philadelphia,
in which no fortune is set down at more
than So, 900, 900, while the most of them
are below that sum. Such lists as this
are mere guess work, and show in a
striking manner the peculiar contrast
between the spirit of journalism and
the social life in the two cities of New
York and Philadelphia. In New York
the universal tendency is to exaggerate
the magnitude of private fortunes, the
amount of business, the cost of public
works, the value OF property, etc. while
on the other hand, in Philadelphia, the
prevalent spirit is exactly the reverse of
this. Here it is customary to belittle
the private fortunes of our leading citi-
zens, to depreciate the volume of trade,
the value of property, and generally
grumble and growl about everything
and everybody.
The estate of the late Thomas H.
Powers was valued at So, 900, 1000, and
the surviving partner, William S.
Weightman, is worth from $40, ,ooo, o,ooc
to SI2 900, 900. The estate of the late
Thomas A. Scott was worth at least $40,
900, 900. The estate of the late Joseph
Harrison was estimated by himself dur
ing his lifetime at $1,000, 900. The es
tate of Richard D. Wood was worth al
his death $1,000, 900, and is now much
larger. The two brothers Drexel are
each worth at least $40, 200, 900; ano
these are only few of the large estates
owned in Philadelphia. Our manufac
turers include many large millionaries
