Training a Raw Servant.

A family in the pretty suburb OF Scott
wood have been in trouble with their
hired girls. The had a jewel of a Ger
man Girl, who had come from the east,
and introduced many little ideas she had
learned there-among others, to Use
Pearine in the laundry and dust COW
ers' in the bedrooms But Louise got
married, and the family has had a series
OF incapables ever since. Driven to des-
peration, the mistress finally secured q
country girl, and determined to train
her. She proved OF Yankee descent.
and was constantly experimenting, to
find improved or handler WAYS OF do
ing her work. She was told of Louise
methods, and declared she was "goin
ter see what they were worth. In cook
ing she soon excelled. She took a fancy
to Pearline, and. aside from washing
and bleaching clothes, did wonders with
it. She washed the furniture with it:
put ii in the water to sprinkle carpets
before sweeping; used it to shampoo the
dog dampened cloth with it to rub the
mantels, the book-covers, etc. always
had it in her diShwater; washed blinds
and woodwork with it in short. cleaned
everything, the house included, with it.
With Pearline for an ally, she declares,

De eds of Kindness.

dustrial Union of Buffalo IS an entirely
+. non-sectarian organization. It's object
is to promote mutual cooperation
and sympathy among women, by It's
Protective Committee il extends Svmpa-
thy and counsel to women.
Though a young institution, it has al
ready accomplished much good in va
rious directions, and its managing spirits
are constantly on the lookout for fresh
fields of usefulness. In the single de-
partment of the collection of money due
women. the Union has emphatically
proved itself d power, while many pleas
ant entertainments have been provided
for tired workers, and practical facilities
have been furnished girls for acquiring
useful information, and even trades that
would offer them Seli-maintenanCe.
Moreover, the Union has earned the good
wishes OF all by it's efforts to bring togeth-
er on common footing women Of all
classes, and to show its recognition of
the siSterhood of her who earns a SCant
maintenance by daily toll and her whose
chief occupation is to shine in social gale
ties. This is IA matter of the utmost mo-
ment, whether or not the fact is vet GEN
orally appreciated The time is GER
tainly coming, as is beginning to be rec
ognized by the press and pull pit, when
better relations than now exist must be
established betw EN- the rich and poor,
or ii will be the worse for both classes.
The good, therefore, that can be accom-
plished in the mean time by such an in
Stitution as this in breaking down caste
and in making the well-to-do acquainted
with the needs; the aspirations, and the
strength of their less fortunate sisters
while in return the latter are convinced
that their welfare is not altogether diSre-
gard for the former, is incalculable
"The enterprises inaugurated by the
Women's Union therefore should receive
public support ON general principles,
though IN most cases they certainly de-
mand it by their own excellence. With
out question, such is the fact regarding
the law lectures at the Fitch Institute
under the auspices Of the Women'S I'm
ion. The Importance to the sex of some
slight knowledge Of their legal rights
has already been treated in these COL
umnS, and it is indeed so patent as hardly
to call for reference to it. Instances have
occurred within the knowledge of almost
every one, in which women have suffer
ed great hardships through their own
