You don't tell me, Mrs. Lee that
You are going to let Emma live out this
summer?'
Yes; she has engaged to help Mrs
Stanley for four months. and if both
are suited she may stay longer. 1t was
necessary for her to be earning. and
house-work is what she unders .ands
best
But. could she not get a place in a
store. or something of that sort?''
''She might, but it would not be half
50 profitable nor pleasant, nor 50 good
for her. Mrs. Stanley is an old friend,
and will do right by her. She Will
earn ten dollars month besides her
board, and a few shop girls do that un-
til after long experience. Sh has a
home where she Is. and viii be protect
ed and cared for. 1t would be Just the
reverse in a store in the city"
But there IS a general sentiment
against working out, and girls feel
such things, | can tell YOU. | wOuldn' I
have my Maria live out for any sum
you could name.
''Of course / should be glad to keep
my girl at home if | could afford it.
but as ] cannot far prefer this to anv
other work for women that / know of.
think she viii on the whole, be Just
as much respected where she is, and as
useful to herself and others as she
would be to be known as a shop GIRL
She VII have considerable time for
reading and sewing, and Mrs. Stanley
is glad to loan her books and maya
zines in the evening. There are places
where | would not have her live for
any thing; but there is little choice of
association for girl in q store or work
shop. Homework is the one bus;Iess
not over crowded, yetitis the best pay
ing. and | think the least uncomfort-
able FOR one VINO understands it. Be
sides, it is in tn line of a wOman's
work all her life long. which is Just he
reverse with store and factory work.
They rather unfit girl for good hou e
keeping when she has a home of her
own. l wish the Over-taxed mothers
and wives of our land had each as good
a helper for the season as my Emma.
and they bad the discretion to make i
home with them so comfortable that
they would be vii ing to stay. | am
not surprise that a ScOlding woman
can never keep help any length of time
before she changes. 1t is useless TO look
for place with no unpleasant things
about it. There are duties on both
sides. and employers should remember
it, l think if the5 were more consider
ate. poor girls in this country would
not be so opposed to living out. -

B!aSphem : Curse.

/ In a recent sermon the Rev. DIR.
Talmage discussed blasphemy and its
consequences. He drew from ancient
and modern history for instances Of
\ the sudden and awful unishment in
/ llicted by divine power upon blasphem-
erS and warned his hearers 20 avoid the
I sin as one that brings them into special
+ danger from an offended Providence.
His most striking illustration was an
Incident that he declared happened
only last August:
So common has blasphemy become
that the public mind and the public ear
have got used TO i, and blasphemer
goes up and down this country in his
lectures defying the plain law against
blasphemy, and there Is not a mayor
in America that has backbone enough
to intefeTe with him save one, and that
the mayor of Toronto. Profanity is
worse than theft, or arson, or murder,
for these crimes are attacks on hui
mainly. That Is an attack on God.
This country is preemineat for BIAS
phemy. The crime is multiplying in in
tensity. God very often shows what
He thinks of it, but for the most part
the fatality is hushed up. give you
fact that is proved by scores of witness
cs. This last August of 1885 man got
provoked at the continued drought and
the ruin of his crops, and in the presence
of mis- neighbors cursed God, SAYING
that he would cut His heart out if He
would come, calling Him q liar and
coward. and flashing a knife.
And while he was speaking his lower
jaw dropped, smoke issued from mouth
and nos riis, and the heat of his body
was So intense il drove ba k those who
would come near. Scores of people
visited the scene and saw the bias
phemer in the awful process of expir-
ing. Lo not think that God has been
silent of your case, O profane sweareri
that lie Is dead. Is there nothing now
in tie peculiar feeling of your tongue
or nothing in the numbness of your
brain that indicates that God may
come 20 avenge your hlasphemies or IS
already ayeaging them? There ale
hundreds of such eases. Families keep
them sill to avoid the horrible con-
spicuity. Physicians suppress them
through professional confidence.
Mr. Talmage was asked for circum-
stantial account of the blasphemer who
was miraculously burned to death.
HIS response was as follows: Il aD-
preciate the desire for further details
in this matter. but purposely avoided
locating the event, and the reasons
that actuafed me then imrel me now to
keep the affair from the public. Such |
an event Is a terrible thing for the |
family and friends of the man who was |
punished, and il was out of consIdera- !
ton for them that | omitted to state /
where the scene was laid. That il is i
strictly true, however, have conclu-
sive evidence.
