To Prevent Stamps from Sticking.

From the New York Cosmopolitan
While lmparting q bit OF informa-
ton to save ourselves from inconven-
fence we may save every reader from
mourning a slight loss at some time in
the future.
Among the thousands of subscrip-
tions coming to us in postage stamps,
we occasionally open q letter to find
the stamps glued closely together, rem
deringit difficult to separate them.
If each subscriber sending stamps
will rub the gummed side of them rap
idly over the hair at the back of the
head a few times, they will not stick
together. It is probably the natural
oil in the hair that produces this de-
sirable effect.
This recipe will be remembered to
advantage by persons carrying post
age stamps in envelopes or pocket
books about their persons. The writ
erbas had reason to appreciate It's
value, particularly when travelling in
tropical climates.
Will our subscribers please remem-
Der it when inclosing stamps to the
Cosmopolitan?

A Kind Action.
[From the Omaha Bee. ]

A little incident was brought to the
attention OF a reporter yesterday,
which illustrates in q marked degree
how much good little act of kindness
may accomplish. About twelve years
ago a young girl, only about 13 years
of age, was brought into the police
court charged with being disorderly
person. She wasfatherless and moth
erless, and had led life which was
quite the opposite of refining In It's ten
denotes. But still her face was round
and rosy, and with her golden hair she
was a beautiful child. What TO do
with her was a question with the city
authorities. She was undoubtedly
guilty of what she was charged with,
and the only remedy for her case seemed
to be a short. term of confinement.
Just as she was about to be sentenced,
however, a well known attorney who
was present asked to be allowed a few
moments conversation with the girl,
which was granted. At it's close the
gentleman surprised the court by ask
ing that the girls case be dismissed,
promising that he would be re-
sponsible for her actions in the
future. AS it was the easiest
way out of the dilemma, the
Judge was only too glad to comply
with the gentleman's request, and the
self-appointed guardian walked out Of
the courtroom with his protege in
charge. He secured employment for
her as a domestic in a private family
and made her promise to come and see
him as often as possible. The girl
lived up to her agreement, and the gen.
tleman's kind treatment and advice
which he gave her in her little troubles
completely won her heart. Time
passed rapidly, and the little girl be-
came young woman. She was an ex-
cellent housekeeper, her character was
beyond reproach. She became more
and more beautiful as she matured in
years, until at 10 she met wealthy
railroad man, who fell deeply in love
with her. She returned his affection,
but when he asked her hand in marriage
she refused BIN. He pressed his suit,
however, and finally she related to him
the story of her early life, giving il as
a. reason why herefused his suit. Her
dover was not thus to be driven from
her, and she finally gave ner consent
to the marriage. The wedding oc-
Cured shortly afterwards and the new
ly welded pair took up their residence
in an elegant home in a Western city,
where they now live
Last week beautiful woman, hand
somely dressed, arrived in the city and
called upon the lawyer above referred
to. At first he did not recognize her,
but when she spoke of the little girl
whom he had taken from the police
court years ago his eyes were opened,
and he knew his visitor to be his for
mer protege. Both were deeply al

She came from a land across the sea,
With the sad-faced priest with the hair OF gold,
She told not her name nor her mother kin,
But ever they talked of the days of old;
OF heather mems ways, of popes and of kings,
OF the sunlight yellow and cornfowers red,
OF men forgotten, of by-past things,
Or the sorrow of living the rest of the dead.
A palmer brought him a letter one day,
In the words they write far over the sea,
He kissed her lips SO lily pale,
And sped him away to that FAR cOntre
Then ever she watched at the door by day,
And oft she stray in the cold moonlight;
Wan, she grew when the autumn came,
And she died on AL souls night.

The Schooner St. Peter.

From the Buffalo Commercial Advertiser
The schooner ST. Peter, running be-
tween Toledo and this city, came into
port this morning with the genial Capt.
Affair, at her helm.
"Good morning, Cap'n," beloved a
land lubber as the st. Peter hove to.
"'Mornin', me hearty" replied the
captain. ''Fine weather it is, so it is -
"You're right, Cap'n. Say, Cap'n,
why dye call that ere schooner St.

'Come aft, me boy, and I'll tell yez, "
said the captain, as he offered his in
terlocutor a seat in the cockpit.

The next day the lady left the eity
for New York and yesterday sailed for
Florida, where she will spend the win

by her husband. Through her bene-

imposed that no names should be
used. The story is remarkable one.

an act OF kindness can. completely

grasped the tape that began to roll
out with it's registry of the Exchange

this wrath. And it's course had
changed; it was going up; in an hour

night the sick man was well, with a
balance in his favor on his brokers'
books of over $4,000, against which
there were charged only commissions

lodgings in New York.

(Cor. Rochester Democrat Chronicle
The approach of winter brings q
great increase in the struggling portion
Of New York's population, and this
leads to q brief notice of the accom-
modations which await them. These
are the lodging houses for those who
have money and the station house for
those who have none. Cheap lodging
houses abound in the vicinity of the
great arteries of life, such as Chatham
Street and the Bowery, and in some
instances they are very profitable.
For a dime bed may be obtained in
g. room with others-often ten beds
being in one room, For a quarter
you get q room by yourself with a.
rear window, and for ten cents addi-
tional front room may be had. Of
course, guests at such places cannot
expect clean linen, or escape from the
inevitable vermin, but men who have
no homes must accept the alternative,
and there are many obliged to sleep at
such places. who in education might be
worthy of far higher lot. Hugh Mil
Ter refers to similar scenes in London
in the following painful manner:
| remember in crossing Westminster
bridge that the Poet Crabbe walked
there all night when his last shilling
was expended, and these were the very
streets which Samuel johnson had SO
often walked from night till morning,
having no roof under which to find shell
ter"
A still lower depth is found in the five
cent lodging houses in which an army of
les miserables seeks nightly shelter.
They are chiefly Easements which are
hired for 5000 a year. The tenant
fits them up with benches and straw
and a bit of carpet for covering, and
this is much better than "taking the
plank in the station house. A dozen
dodgers are enough to pay the rent, and
then the average crowd yields suffi-
GENTLY to clear So or 81, which is real
ly agood business. The five cents lodg-
ers include the wretched of all classes
except newsboys, who have lodging
house of their own at the same rate.
This is a superior institution, endowed
in permanent manner, but it's advan-
tages ars limited to this class.
When you rise to 81 per night wide
range of accommodations is opened.

nished rooms to let in all parts of the
city. There are women who take q
house, and instead of keeping boarders
simply let rooms at from SIS to 81 per
week. Two young men can occupy
each room and take their meals at q
restaurant. This mode Of life is rapid

it reaches the elegant suites at from

which is SO prominent in the present

lonely, but he spends so lite time
there that he can put up with this.
He has a club and his theater and
other resorts, some of which are much
worse, and thus he learns to live with

ostracised from that only true form of
social life in which woman becomes the
all-pervading power.

A Romance Of the Pension Office.
I"Carp," in Cleveland LEADER

A strange story comes to me from
the pension Office, which | relate with
out giving the names. Not long ago
one of the leading clerks of the depart
ment died, and his sweetheart cameto
the house in which he lay and made a
great ado over his death, saying she
was engaged to him. She was pretty,
an heiress and interesting. She had
hardly reached the house before sweet
heart number two arrived from a
neighboring state. Number two said
she was also engaged to the deceased
and she was also very pretty and in
teresting. Investigation showed that
the clerk had really engaged himself to
these two girls, and that he had made
preparations to marry number two q
few months after the time at which his
death took place. He had borrowed
money of the heiress, number one, and
as she was preparing her clothes for
her coming marriage, she had so much
faith in her to-be husband that she
took no notes or memoranda of the
debts. The papers left by the deceased
show that he has willed all his proper
tv to number two, and so sweetheart
number one loses both her husband
and the money she lent him.
