A WORD TO GIRLS.


Making Home Happiness.
Sweeping, gardening, busting and
bed-making are among the humble
duties that make up the routine OF
home work. They are not calculated
to stimulate the intellect or make bril-
liant minds, but they are prime factors
in making home happiness, for they
teach order, neatness and conside Va
ton for others, without which no wom-
an a be a true lady. The girl who
refrains from lending assistance which
will promote the comfort of others. on
the score of it being beneath her, as a
lady, has a very poor idea of the mean
ing OF the woodland a nature so in
nately vulgar that no amount of fash
lonable veneering can hide the warp
ing of a teltish mind. If girls only
knew much more attractive they could
make themselves by assuming some of
the cares of this ork-a- day world
this reluctance to be thought a worker
would vanish.
Girls are full of kindly impulses.
which a word or two at the right time
will bring out, The besetting sin of
the women of the nineteenth century
is misdirected energy, too much sole
itation for affairs outside of home. and
a love Of luxury which threatens to eff.
lace the sturdy honesty which grasps
every duty and raises it to virtue
through the force OF its own integrity
of purpose. Our girls have all noble
qualities which youth can be expected
to possess. When false ideas have
given place to the practice of those
little things that go so far to-
ward making home the happy place
which influences so many destinies
the world will be all the better.
girls, though your hands may not be
white, and-sweeping will be an
every day occurrence .-DeAoa 7J5b-

A cl,im to Human Gratitude.

Charlotte Corday, the sad-faced, tender
hearted peasant girl Of Normany, made
great history BY one desperate aetl
St,kepei bv the saturnaia of the French
revolution. and moved to desperation as
! Robesperre and Marat were leaoing ths
| flower Of France TO the guilloune' she de-
termined that she would put an emu 10
Marat's bloody reign.
Marat had demanded two hundred thou
sand victims for the guillotine!
He proposed to kill Of the enemies Of the
| Revolution to make il perpetual
Horrible thought,
M y6uterIt fired the blood Of this patrl-
otto peasant maid!
Gaming access to his closely guarded
quarters by a subterfuge, she found HIM IN
| his bath, even then memorable and giving
written directions for further slaughter!
He asked her the names Of the inlmlcal
deputies who had taken refuge IN Caen'
| she told him, ani he wrote them down
That is Welt Before a week IS over
they shall all be brought to the g%ulllotne''
At these words, Charlotte drew from her
bosom the knife, and plunged it with su,
peruatural force up to the h!lt in the heart oil
Marat,
"Come to me, my dear friend, come to
me- cried Marat, and expired under the
blow
In the Corcoran gallery at Washington is
a famous painting of Charlotte, represented
as behind the prison bars the day before
her execution.
Ills thrilling. sad picture, full Of sorrow
for her suffering country, and of unconquer-
able hate for her country's enemies,
Whatal lesson in this tragic storyi Two
hundred. nav, five hundred thousand peo-
! ple would Marat have sacrificed to his uu-
holy rassion of power!
Methods are quite as murderous and in
| eyorable as men. and they number their
| victims by the millions.
The na6e of history is fun of murders by
| authority and by mistaken ideas! In the
n~racfien Of medicine alone how many hum
| drels of millions have been allowed to die
and rs many more killed by uniustitiable
bigotry and bv bungling,
But the age is bettermg. Men and meth

worth ones professional life to advise or

BABTEs AND TELEGRAPH.

a young father comes in with hur-

race. He grabs blank and dashe5 OF
something like this:
:" Great news Mary very i'll. Fine

Then he tears that up. Somehow he
doesn't want the rude tele5rapher 10

Then lie starts again, and this time
he says: Confound the tele rapher, ne
shan't know anything about it. and he
writ.ss: 1t has come-eioht pCun s.
female. Mother all right
He looks at it a minute, and then
tears it up, with the remark: Tney
won't know whetherthat means a jersey

BY this time the young man has
got into a sweat, and grabbing a pencil
he dashes Off: It's girl. Mother do

moistened eye, he signs his first n1me
TO 1t and hands it in.
"They are all about alike these first
