Relief for tho Shop Girls,

y good move is made by many hu.
name people in New York society.
They have formed q league the objec;
OF which is to ~patronizs only thoae
stores where the girls are properly
treated. The Amelioration OF the lot Of
shop girls in the metropolitan cities OF
this country is one OF the most impor-
tant questions Of the day. It has been
u subjectof~ discussion for years, not only
in labor circles, but in the public prints
and many movements have been inau-
gurated looking to the b%etterment OF
the condition OF this much abused class
of hard working females. Some aston
ishing stories are told OF their abuses.
The New York dispatches give some Of
them as follows.

In tho death OF Mr.. L. W. Wells, OF
this city, by drowning yesterday, the
city not only loses a valued citizen, a
competent architect, but a man who was
u credit to any community for upright
ness and generous impuises. [.
1t Is true that I'VE aro here to-day and
absent tomorrow" but when a man OF
Mr.. Wells position Is taken from the
full flush Of lilo aud a future OF useful
ness In the t~winkling OF M eye, then the
shock Is greater on account OF its being
unexpected. In every sense Wheeling
has sustained u loss, and the lNrELLl'

fathetless children that they have the
deepest sympathy in their %uncensolable

For Greater Freedom.

Our esteemed neighbor, tho Register
is mistaken in surprising that the Re
publicans, or the ISTELLloEScsr are il
favor OF 1.-THE abolition Of State and loca,
self government" All that the Repub.
lican party advocates is such control
over State governments by the general
government rs is authorized by the
Constitution OF tho United States,
which every member Of the Union has
subscribed to; only this and nothing
moro. The Register, for IN obvious pur.
pose, misrepresents our position. There
was no "cloak" to "throw off," as our
neishbor affects to think there is. The
Republican policy regarding the siates'

it has been open, bold and aggressive.
1t is the popular one. II it were not,

Amateur Entertainments

Most amateur entertainments are given
in places where there are no regular
stages, and in such a case a platform
should be built about three feet high and
ten or more deep, the full width of the
room. Curtains of canton flannel can
be used, or large screens, if such are
more convenient. While the characters
are being posed for tableau, or the stage
being set for any scene, the piano or or
chestra can be played as in theatre,
and for that reason the piano should be
outside of the curtain or on the floor. A
dressing room should be parted off on
each side of the stage.
There are books which have many
bright little comedies requiring two,
three or four characters. Among them
are: GA Happy Pair" only requiring
two persons; ga Fair Encounter" need
ing but two women, or weeping
Wives" needing four. This last was
translated from the French by Mrs.
James R. Pitcher, of Short Hills, N. J.
There are many others which are bright
and good. Let the manager beware of
tragic pieces, or ''scenes" from "Mac-
beth, Mary and Elizabeth, or Romeo
and Juliet" Let everything of this kind
be light and sprightly. 1t is within the
possibilities for man or woman who is
a good manager of parlor entertain
ments to write piece that shall be full
of amusement, because novel and new,
and novelty is to be sought for.-Olive
Harper.

are assured upon the authority of the Bible
that there is one Being in heaven who is
dearer to US than it is possible for wife or
child to be, if we love and trust him as we
ought, who bled and died for US on the
cross, who rose from the dead and assembled
into heaven, who is perfectly conversant
with every item Of our earthly history from
the cradis to the grave, of whom we have
more knowledge than of any other being
in the spirit realm, who on earth was sin
all points tempeted like as we are,n and
who does watch over US, care for us. and
profoundly sympathize with US in every
trial OF life. That Being is the Lord Jesus
Christ, the Goldman on earth and the Cod
Man in heaven. The Bible pours a flood of
light upon this Christ, as he was on earth
and as he is in heaven, and makes him the
best friend one can possibly have. Having
the sympathizing friendship of Christ. and
knowing that we have it, we must rely on
him and seek comfort in him, patiently ac-
cepting the absence of dear ones that we
have loved and lost on earth, and hoping to
meet them, to know them, and renew our
intercourse with them in brighter and
better wOrld.-The Independent.
