The State Charities Aid association, in
seeking to elevate the cow'Iition OF the poor by
the promotion of thrift, is engaged in good
work. II has become convinced, after
thorough investigation, that in no wa) can
,h,t purpose be better served than by the es'
tablishmen, of postal savings banks. This
conviction is based upon knowledge derived
from personal intercourse with the pocy in all
parts Of the state There is an imperative de
mand for some general aud thoroughly safe

cNp>riencc OF otheI cations shows that the
postal savings bank system meets that want.
Hence the association has set TO work to in
,eres, kindred societies and the phianihropc
generally in the iurheiance Of this object.
The postal savings banks have not orly en-
couraged economy and habits Of thrift among
the poor in England, hut they have also proved
direct benefit to the government. In Canada,
Australia and other British colonies the sys-
TEN has been even more successful than in the
mother country. France, Italy, Russia
Switzerland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Japan
and other countries which have adopted this
expedient have pronounced ii great success

The arrival OF Mr.. a. Hoffnung is
timely. He comes at an hour when
the immigration OF Portuguese into this
country seems at an end, and also at an
hour when the labor contracts Of the
Portuguese already here are expiring or
about to expire; at an hour when the
Portuguese now in these islands are
trying to make up their minds whether
to 20 or stay. So much matter has
already been prepared for this issue,
that adequate discussion OF the subject
re suggested by Mr.. Hoffnung's arrival
mus, be postponed. But We are at
liberty TO state that MIR, Hofinung has
expressed himself as keenly alive to the
danger now confronting us the danger
that mos, OF the Portuguese now here
will leave us and that he is just as
keenly alive to the duty OF both gov
eminent and citizens to make organized
ellort to give Portuguese chance tc
settle ON either public or private lands

Al this crisis. in December, 1873, the won
derful movement known as the Woman's Tenn
perance Crusade was inauguraled. The story
is loo well known to need recapi,ula,ion here.
In the little town Of Hillsborough, in Southern
Ohio, band Of Christian women met, and
with much prayer, but with little definite plan
-impelled and guided by Gods Spirit alone,
started work, the present outcome Of which,
no mortal could have foIe,oh. The crusade
sp,ead. and ia few months Ohio and many
Of the adjacent states were on tire. II was no
holiday play, no sudden oulburst Of frenzy
which inspired the women a America during
those months Of the crusades. Il was Gods
plan to arouse the ~omen Of the nation to
realize that lie had definite work ioS them
to do, and to open to them sense Of the pos.
sihii,ies within and around them.

must take some more permanent and definite

Nv friend, the cold inhabitant," said: al have
seen Miss Cleveland pleasing lady she is. In
a company of callers saw her making herself
agreeable to every one present. She would talk
with lady or gentleman present, and then, with
out attracting notice, would begin conversation
with another guest. Before the evening had
passed she had spoken to every one present She
talked of art, and science, and literature, and
really, at times, showed as much knowledge Of
either as if she had devoted lifetime to its study
She is not society woman-that is, such a
devOtee of society that she goes night after night
to receptions and talks of some other reception,
the weather, beautiful Washington, or some
guests costume. She has no taste for such gath
erings, but she does enjoy intelligent company.
do not mean to say that she is one of those
women who, being intelligent, become strong
minded, and want to wear pantaloons, and coats,
and vests, and go and do as men do. She seems
to have too much common sense for that. Miss
Cleveland is not handsome, but her countenance
is pleasing, and oftentimes brightens when she
becomes earnestly engaged in discussion on
some subject in which she is interested. Her
clothes are neat, but there is nothing especially
stylish about their make.
'sAnd her ornaments-well, / know some wives
of Government clerks who would think themselves
disgraced if they were seen wearing them. At
one of her Saturday afternoon receptions she
wore steel ornament. A very fashionable lady,
as she left the White House, turned up her nose
until it almost reached the ceiling and remarked:
Steel ornaments! Just think! She'll have to get
over that"

Bed-Clothes of Paper.

paper-making firm in New Jersey has for
several weeks been turning out counterpanes and
pillows of paper. No. manila paper is used,
two large sheets being held together by slender
Irvine at intervals of three or four inches; the
twine is gummed SO as to hold the sheets firmly
together where it lies. A hem is placed on the
Counterpart to keep it from tearing; the safety
edge is composed Of Irvine. Ornamental designs
are stamped in the outer surfaces of the covers
and cases, giving them neat, attractive appear
ance.
When these counterpanes and pillow-cases be-
come vrinkled from use, they can easily be
smoothed out with hot fatiron. The counter
panes can be left on the bed when it is occupied,
and in cold weather will be found warm cover
ing, paper preventing the escape of heat. The
new paper bed clothing is rs cents per set, and
will probably become very popular.
