A Job Not Wanted.

The earl and countess of Rosse have
left Birr castle for Biarritz, but will not
make long stay abroad, as his lordship
much dislikes being parted from his be-
loved workshops. There are few better
mechanical engineers i'm the country
than Lord ROsse, and il the fates had
not decreed that he should be born q
peer and the heir of fine estate he
would undoubtedly have made a great
name for himself in the scientific world
There is a good story told of his visit
ing large factory in the north of Eng
land some years ago. when one of the
partners in the concern, passing through
the works, was struck by the remarks
being made to the foreman by the not
particularly striking looking visitor.
Entering into conversation himself with
the young man, he was so impress
ed by the intimate knowledge displayed
of the mechanical details of the business
that he exclaimed: You are Just the
man want. II you are out of job I
will give you n lirst-ratc billet here; and
at all events. leave your name and All
dress in case of your being at liberty on
some future occasion" THANK you-er,
amer the earl of ROsse, and am not
or seeking employment-er just at pres
ent," was the characteristic reply, in
Lord Rosse's usual dry, hesitating man.

THE Girl. WHO STAYS AT HOME.

Many daughter who is old enough
and capable enough to earn good wages
away from home, remains ut home and
does hired girls duties without wages.
Perhaps her mother is an invalid; there
are Younger brothers and sisters to care
for, and her father cannot afford to
hire help. Sometimes the mother dies,
and the daughter has to do double duty
i'm the home. We all know of families
where the mother and daughter do all the
homework, which is by no means light.
Isn't the daughters presence in the
home and her assistance far more de-
sirablc than that of hired girl? Her
father would expect to pay someone
else certain amount of money for do
ing the Homework. Why should not

he saddled it with the condition that she

about fifty Vassar girls got on. They

of the pretticst of the whole lot took part

stood around her within hearing dis

continued:

"'Wouldn't You like book or

FEW PRECEPTs FOR MARRIED WOMEN.
Always remember that you are mar
ried to man and not Il god; be pre-
pared for imperfectiOns.
Once i'm while let your husband
have the last word; it will crafty him
and be no particular loss to you.
Do be reasonable; it is a great deal to
able women are rarc-be rare.
Anticipate the discovery by your hus-
band you are "Only wOman;" if you
were not he would not care about you.
Remember that servants are made of
the same material as you are; little
coarser grained, perhaps, but the same
in essentials.
Let your husband read the newspaper
at the breakfast table; it is unsociable,
but then it is only trifle after all, and
he likes it.
Read something in the papers besides
fashion notes and society columns; have
some knowledge of what is going on in
foreign countries.
Try and forget YOURSELF rs to your
husband. forget that you married him
and remember that he married you: he
will then probably do the reverse.
BE Il companion to your husband if
he is wise man; and if he is not, try
and make him become your companion.
Raise his standards; do not let him
lower yours.
Let your husband know more than
you do once in while; it keeps up his
self-rcspect and you will be none the
worse for admitting that you are not
actually infallible.
Respect your husbands prejudices,
respect his relations. especially his
mOther-she is not the less his mother
because she is your mother-in-law; she
loved him before you did.
