What They Knew.
A Northern Woman's Funny Experience
With TWO Colored App!!eantc
For Work

What treat it would have been to
have suddenly transplanled a thrifty
Northern housewife to this part Of tie
world and to have given her good
long look at the domestic economy OF
Virginia household The troops of
household servants could find nothing
to occupy their time in spite of the
Kitchen being one hundred yards from
the dining-room in one direction, the
well one hundred yards off in another,
while the dairy and the icc-house were
hardly within hailing distance of each
other. y New York woman describes
her experience with two young colorcd
girls, respectively Mary Jane and Sus-
anna, coming to ask for employment.
They appeared quite confident in their
powers of pleasing. TO the inquiry
"What can you do?' they looked sheep.
ishly at each other and hesltatingly re-
marked: "Mos' any thing"
