Mr. S'rraain, She won't do it"
Mrs. I,rSty, She will"

1t IL terrible to think OF the privation
which Is sure to prevail next fall and win
ter. Recently a manufacturer of my aC-
qualntanCe talked with n woman, who. in
town not far from Boston, is of much
prominence i'll the order of the Knights
of Labor, and the fame of whose elo-
quence in the sanctuary" of the order
has reached even the profauce ears of
outer barbarians.
One constantly recurring phrase of hers
my friend took the liberty of questioning
somewhat.
I'VE can injure the manufacturers, she
kept repeating with that malicious inton-
alton which shows that the sense of class
grievance has reached n thoroughly vi
cious stage. We can injure the manu-
facturors."
"oh, yes he replied. You have done
that already. l am going to close my
factory, and | shall not open II until the
whole business is settled. You injure me,
but how about yourselves? Do you think
those 300 men that | turned off are bene-
titedY"
But you'll have to come round" she
replied.
Il don't know what You mean by com
ing round. 1t isn't profitable TO run my
factory under the direction of the knights
of Labor, and | certainly shan't under
take II rs scheme of philanthropy.
You lujure the manufacturers, of course,
but you throw yourselves out of employ
ment."
We can go to farming, then" declared
the priestess.
"Where:" he asked. with the good ma
ture of one who has the best of an argu-
ment. The Massachusetts farms are
overstocked and overworked. The west is
by no means scant of farm hands, and
who Is going to pay for getting you all
out there if there was work."
We'll" she said with heightened color
and increased acerbity, Il shan't come to
want, anyway, I've got folks down in
Maine thatM take care of me-"

Treatment of Children.
Tho uoY,Salyaa,,ar

People grow tender as they grow old.
Young mothers are apt to be too severe
in their ideas of disciple while grand
mothers are prOverbially too indulgent:
yet of the two extremes the latter is prob
ably the least harmful. 1t is the fash
ion nowadays to treat infants according
to iron-clad rules laid down by the medi
cal fraternity in regard to feeding, dress
ing, bathing, etc. Now it is not disputed
that these rules are excellent general
guides, but we do insist that they do
not admit of a cast-iron application in
the case of any child.
Each mother must apply the rules &C
cording to her own judgment, consulting
somewhat the childs comfort and in
stincts. She should not permit what she
knows Is really harmful to him to simply
quiet his clamor; but on the contrary.
there may be times and circumstances
when 1t would be far worse to let child
cry an hour or two than to break all the
rules III the catalogue.
Children recover from the effects of
grief more readily than older people; but
crying does hurt them, no matter what
the autrocats say. If a young mother Is
In In doubt as to what course to pursue,
1t Is always better to err on the side of
kindness than on the side of severity.

A Child w oman.

Poor little Caroline Terbas spent 76
years and months trying to reach wom-
an estate, and then gave up the vain en-
deavor and died Up TO her twelfth year
says The New York World, she was appar-
emily like other girls; then she suddenly
stopped never TO grow again Although
living some years beyond the average of
human life, the girl never became q wom-
an, and when the coroner called 10 view
her remains, she having died without
medical attendance. he found the body of
girl OF IL topped by the head of mstur-
ity and the face of age. For many years
Miss Terbas was a familiar figure on 9Th
Avenue, in the neighborhood OF the reser-
voir, and many people talked about the
child-woman who lived on the corner of
Froty-frst street. Nobody could guess
her age for there was not light streak in
her dark tresses which she could nearly
walk on they being four feet long. while
she was four feet three inches in height.
The kindly face was somewhat sharp and
aquiline. but it had few of the wrinkles
belonging to her great age. Sometimes
people block away heard her shrieks
and wondered. They did not know how

marvelously sensitive her skin was, which
caused her to cry out when simply touch
ed and to yell when washed. Three sis
tiers had grown to tall and fne-looking
women. while little Carolina halted at lis
mile stone, one OF them. Mrs. Louisa Bar
mum, was married but none of them was
unfa1thful to her sisterly trust. They
cared tenderly for the bright-witted little
freak, and when over year ago her cries
made something of a nuisance, they NOV
ed to less thickly populated neighbor-
hyod in East Seventy-Fifth street. For
about year the sensitiveness extended to
the nails, which Carolina has not allowed
TO be touched. Lately she has been some
what demented, and she died suddenly
before the family physician could
be called. Coroner MESSENGER took the
case there being undoubtedly great inter
est In 1t, and performed autopsy in the
presence of DR.. Manning and DIR. F. C. An
thes. Beyond the uncut toe aud finger
nails and certain organic peculiarities, he
found the perfectly formed body of an
apparent girl of II. The spine was straight
and there was no outward deformity. At
the request of the family he made no ex-
animation of the brain

ReNiyiug Il Romance.

story long current in France under
the last empire has been revived by the
institution of a suit by young lady from
Corsica against the ex-Empress Eugene.
As the tale ran, it was alleged that the late
Prince Imperial was not the son of
Eugenie. but the offspring of a favorite
of Napoleon, who willingly exchanged
her son for the daughter that was born to
the Empress. The babies once mixed"
in this fashion, the persons who were
prlyy to the facts kept them religiously,
but the goSsips obtained their information
IN some unknown way, as gossips do, and
the legend has been cherished ever since,
IN spite of repeated denials.
Since her retirement in England Eugene
has been pestered by a young woman of
rare beauty, whom many people declare
bears striking resemblance to the EN-
press, with petitions to recognize her as
her daughter. Refusing to give any Gre
dence to the story that has long been ia
miliar to her. Eugene has now been made
defendant in a suit brought by the claim
ant with view TO establishing her par
entage and securing her rights as an heir
just what foundation the ancient romance
has Is likely TO be demonstrated before
the legal hearing has been ended.

that of the cutters. All other work is
farmed out to small contractors or mid
