.REBUKED BY A MINISTER'S WIFE.

The Danger of GOssiping in Street Car About
People You Don't Know.
It was in street car in Philadelphia
and News man was d listener. Three
ladies were engaged in conversation.
Their subject was church matters and
church people. Among the latter was the
wife of the pastor of one of the leading
congregations in the city. The ladies
said good many things about her, some
fattering and others decidedly otherwise;
some things that were true and others
that she would not have been willing to
admit to be true. For nearly half an hour
the gossipers played their avocations, and
as the interest arose, so did the pitch of
their voices. At the time lady sat OPP
posite them in the car, and quietly watch
ed them. When one of the gossips re-
marked that she had never seen the pas
tors wife referred to and the others ex-
pressed a desire to see her; the silent
watcher smhed. After while the car
reached the point where the lady wished
to alight. She arose, but before starting
toward the door laid her hand on the
arm of one Of the three who were en-
gagged in conversation, and with a self
possessed smile, said:
81 aides, you have ex pressed desire to
see me. Here am. l have too keen a
sense of humLr to leave the car without
telling you that I am the lady you have
been talking about. Now let me give you
a little sensible advice. The next time
you are in street car don't talk so loud
ly, for some one might hear you who
would not enjoy it as Hugely as l have.
GOOD afternoon"
The lady left the car, and the faces of
the gossipers were q picture of astonish
ment and discontinue. The other pas
sengers smiled.

WINTER sUCCOTAsG,
POULTRY NOTES.
Select medium sized eggs for hatch

Select medium sized eggs for hatcning.
Ducks and young chickens should be
KEEP separate.
ducks is that they can be raised with very
little water.
A few drops of tincture of iron or a
very small piece of copperas in the drink
ing water of the poultry promotes health.
With nearly all kinds Of fowls hens that
are two years old aud are vigorous and
healthy make the best breeders.
Young poultry OF all kinds ought to be
well fed and cared for until the feathers
get good start to growing and they are
able to pick up a considerable part of
their living. Then they can be turned
out and will largely take care of them
selves.
Too much of the poultry sent to mar
ket is not of the best quality. A week or
10 days of careful feeding would add
considerably to the quality and this will
increase the price more than sufficient to
pay for the feed.
The poultry ought to be gentle. Fowls
that run at your approach will not thrive
as we'll Gs if tanner. Moreover, for many
reasons il is an item to be able to work
among them. This applies to poultry OF
all kinds, whether on the farm or in town
In majority of cases hen that is
good layer is an early riser. They
ought, especially at this season, to be fed
as soon as they come down from the
roosts. If they can be allowed to un cut
feeding early, and then again just before
they go on the roosts at night, it is al
that they will need.
A hen that has the habit of breaking
and eating eggs is difficult if not lmpos
sible to cure. Usually it is better econo
my TO fatten her for the table or market
as keeping he1 in flock will soon teach
the Trick to all the rest.
Fowls ought to be mated about si1
weeks before beginning to save the eggs
for Matching. While many think short
ter time will suffice, the safest plan wher
breeding to improve is to mate the fowls
reasonably early, as the careful breed e.
cannot afford to take any chances.

return the Doctors earnest greeting.
"Doctor, ] want to tell you about let

Notification of a Dream.


Do dreams come truef There is one
man in st. Paul who believes they do,
sometimes. rs had one, one night in
1875, which came true to dot. His
brother was an intimate friend of sYel-
lowstone" Kelly, the noted Indian scout,
who was with Gen. Miles in his Indian
fighting in the far west. The st. Paul
man was in Bismark for time that year,
and there his brother introduced him to
Kelly, and the two became the warmest
kind of friends, for there was something
in the makeup Of each that attracted
the other. The st. Paul man came home
after few weeks and Kelly went west on
another Indian expedition. On the night
of the 9th of September the st. Paul man
had a dream of Kelly. He arose from
bed while asleep, and threw himself on
the floor, excitedly crying out: "Kelly is
in danger. The Indians are in ambush
for him in the canyon. There is but one
way of escape. He must ride straight
forward, then turn to the right, and put
spurs to his horse for dear life. If he
does that he will escape"
A gentleman who occupied the same
room-it was building on Jackson street
was awakened. He got out of bed and
rushed to where his chum lay on the floor
talking in his sleep, and awakened him.
"What is the matter?" he asked.
81 have had a DREAM" was the reply.
Yellowstone Kelly had been in danger
from the Indians. They laid in ambush
for him. / can draw a map showing the
only way of escape" and he took piece
of paper and drew diagram showing
where the Indians were and the only
path by which escape could be made, as
it had appeared in a dream. 1t made SO
vivid an impression that he vas anxious
for days for the fate of his friend, the
scout.
A few weeks later Kelly came to st
Paul and the two friends met.
"Where were you on the night of Sept.
n" asked the st. Paul man.
~ had close call on that night" was
the reply, "and the saddle I sat in that
night has bullet in it from a redskins
gun. I was caught in a canyon and
almost surrounded" and then he describ-
ed the lay of the land and how he had es-
capped by riding straight toward the
Indians until he found passage to the
right. through which he had ridden and
escaped. The situation was exactly as
the st. Paul man had dreamed it was.
The st. Paul man who had the dream
and who believes that dreams sometimes
come true was W. W. Erwin, the criminal

Two Hundred Employees Escape With but
Little Injury.
ST. LOUIS. March 22.-Fire broke out
this afternoon in the STANDARD Bagging
fractory on Stoddard avenue near Twelfth.
The whole concern was motley group of
old buildings with very little fire proteo
ton. Owing to the infiammable nature
of building and contents, the fames
spread rapidly, and the widest panic en-
sued amongst 200 employees, most of
whom were girls. The few men employed
in the building worked bravely and sue
ceeded in leading the panic stricken
girls through smoke and flames
to place where they could
drop out to the low adjoining buildings,
and all were saved with the exception of
Ada Labrecht, who was found terribly
burned. Charles Gufran remained on
the third floor too long, and, finding all
means of escape cut of except by the
window, he took this only chance and
jumped, being terribly injured by the
fall but will not die. A man, whose name
could not be learned, was run over by
fire engine aud badly injured. The Pc
cuniary loss by the fire is small.

In Harmony with the United States.

LONDON, March 20.-The Blue Book on
the Samoan affairs was Issued today. It
contains 356 dispatches, the dates rang
ing from April 20, 1885, TO February %,
1889. The dispatches show that
England has been throughout in cor
dial accord with America, and that
she declined to accede Germany's request
for assistance, and cooperation in r1stor-
ing order in Samoa until she
had learned the American gov
erEments views on the subject. January
295h last Lord Salisbury com planned to

dar at London concerning Bismarck's
statement in the reiohstag that in

tries were identical, as far as the future
of Samoa vas concerned, bat not other

their places of business; it is responsible
for indigestion, and for the peeyisbDess
that causes persons of both sexes to be
guilty of acts of impatience-of down
right wrong doing.
[ The most successfully managed Ameri
can house hold is not entirely free from
the difficulties attendant upon domestic
| service, while thousands of homes are
constantly under its malevolert influence,
and the common com plant is that it is
daily becoming more puzzling and an
noElng. Many explanations have been
offered as to the underlying cause of the
| trouble, chief among which which is the
| almost universal dislike of the young of
| both sexes for manual labor or for any
occupation which inferentially carries
with it badge of servitude. The "good
| old days" of which we read, when the
mistress of the house sat in her room
surrounded by her maid servants and
| initiated them into the mysteries of
picking and preserving or weaving, of
knitting and of dyeing, have passed
away, never to return. In the place of
that ideal state we have a system under
which servants are selected without any
regard TO their fitness for membership
in the family.
1t is an open question whether the
uality, or rather the lack of quality, in
the available material be not largely re
sponsible for many of the perPlexing diff
hcultles so much complained of. The
much Wanted independence of the Amer
lean character is, In one sense, a weakness
when it leads to the rejection of an en-
ployment honorable in itself because of
feeling that it implies dependency, and
to the selection of some other field of la
Dor in which the fact of servitude, if it be
not so plainly apparent, nevertheless sx-
lists IN an equal degree.
Still, we can't blame the 'tgirls." Their
aspirations are natural. Put yourselves
In their places, and you will understand
the feeling. May it not be said that bet
ter mistresses would make better 'girlsS"
A good housewife is apt to make good
mistress. 1t is lamentable fact tn at too
many young women who expect to have
households to manage are ignorant of
the art of household management. Such
young women have a false idea of "edu
cation" For an education" they acri-
fee everything. The mothers bake and
wash and scrub and sew, while the
daughters study the rules of grammar,
the mysteries of algebra and the princi-
Piles of constitutional history, knowing
nothing of those duties that belong to
woman, nor of those arts which make
home bright and cheerful and cause the
fires of affection to burn steadily and
clearly.
The true school for the teaching of
applied household science is in the home.
There the domestic virtues may be Guilt
waited; there the dignity of labor may be
rightly taught,and the full significance be
realized of those lines of good old George
Herbert's, that
Who sweeps room as by Thy law
Makes that and the action fine.

The domestic service problem is one of
