poyerty-rea poverty. No human being con-
nected with her has sufficient command of language
to have warned her effectually She has learned
o good deal of Jewish history at Sunday-school
King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba have
attracted her attention. Beyond that church
means little to her.
Bye and bye CARTE" gets tired of her and
absents himself for days; the air is thick with
frantic ill-speled notes but the end of the month
finds Violet possessed of about one hundred dol
lars, a halfdozen rainbow -hued dresses, and no
reputation. The way of the transgressor for the
first time becomes hard. She is too young in vice
being only eighteenth threaten. Moreover,
about this time, the Emporium having refused her
readmlttance, she meets a Jewish gentleman
whom "Artie'' knew and had described to her as
"a bowling cad." Ah well! facis descensus
Violet now drives in the park with her Israelite.
She has dyed her bonny brown hair a light golden.
Her beautiful eyes are larger and darker-being
"touched up'-and they challenge every man
they meet Men wonder "where that snob Isaacs
picked her up and old Lord Leeres who hasn't
recognized the Jew since, as a comparatively
young man, he had occasion to borrow some money
on post-obits, finds his way to Violet's villa in
st. Johns Wood. Isaacs is rather fattered than
otherwise when his noble friend becomes his sue
cessor. Violet's name is on every mans lips now.
She drives the finest horses really begins to dress
well, and sees her own pretty face smiling on her
from the picture store windows. No one in fast
and fashionable London, save poor old Lady
Leeres and her daughters, is ignorant who signs
the cheques that represent Volet's gorgeousness.
And Mr.. IsaaCs goes about saving: HKnOW Violet
Montgomery? made that girl. Twas me in
troduced her to Leeres." No one believes the
poor Jew. Truth is not always mighty
All that was good generous, kindly dies in the
breast of our poor Mary Jane. She is at first fiat
tered by the thought that she has become ga
lady," her only conception of the life of gentle
woman being perfect idleness. She passes from
hand to hand, visits most of the largest cities of
Europe; almost persuades rich young fool to
marry her-might have done so, indeed, if she
could have behaved herself. 1t may be that she
sinks down to the very lowest state, and haunts
the streets. In any position, | hate to think of
her, because she seems to me an awful satire on
our civilization. Al all events she grows coarse
and violent with advancing years. She then finds
herself obliged to depend on the generosity of the
many instead of the few. Perhaps she settles
down in an establishment of her own, where she
may be found, like Lucrece, surrounded by spins
tiers; but here the comparison ends. No biogra-
pher knows where she dies. Women of her stamp
go out of life like thiste-down.
And who is to blame for it all? Mary Jane?
Or Artie? Or Society? ELISA M. MOORE.

Teachers and Gentle Voices.

That excellent thing in woman" and in man,
also, when in the school-room-the 'gentle" voice.
thought not necessasly ''snft' or "low," is a
means of grace to teacher and taught alike. Few
teachers realize how accurately their gain or loss
in influence can be measured by the quality of the
tone in which they talk. There is no excuse for
the hard, sharp, rasping tone, so common as to be
usually reckoned one of the characteristics of a
"schoolma M" even in the noisiest room or among
llemost unruly children. The law of 'similia
similibus curantur" does not hold good in such a
case. Screaming and shouting at children is to
make demons even of little angels, and they must
be angelic, indeed, who can escape such transform
alton. The teacher should know how to make dis
tinctness serve in place of force to the end Of
sparng her own throat and the nerves of her pu-
pils.-Carone B. LeRow, in Ladies' Home Jour

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.

mali 49, NEW YORK, November @ 1890
The preachers and women have stirred matters
up not little bit here in New York as election
draws nigh. Tammany busters around and calls
meetings and makes speeches, in which it calls the
preachers and women names, and tells its audiences
that it isn't Tammanys fault that New York did
not get the Worlds Fair, and it isn't Tammanv's
fault that New York lost one elector by false
census count, and although Tammany knows full
well it will be elected, still it considers it worth
while to stir about to considerable extent Some
of the best women in the city have allied them
selves to the Peoples Municipal League-not suf-
frage women-they don't want to vote, they SIM
ply want to use little gentle feminine moral
suasion-that is all.
The women of Dr. r. Heber Newton's church
have distributed the following circular to voters:
The ministers of religion have been nghard to get better
government In our city.
Ihey want better city government for your sake They
Wa your streets Kept clean your houses taken Of room

WHAT A COMEDY LIFE is?

The grandson of Chief Justice Chase was buried
October Dist from the little church Of St. Peters,
by-the-Sea, at Narragansett Pier, R. 1. He COM
mitted suicide at Seattle.
1t was the closing scene in short and unhappy
life. Willie Sprague was the only son of Ex-Gov.
and Mrs. Kate Chase Sprague whose names have
been before the public in more or less sensa-
tonal manner for years. How much the domestic
infelctes of his family had to do with the failure
of his life, none can tell, but that some element
was sadly missing can be plainly seen by the letter
which was found on his writing table unfinished,
after he had taken his own life. The depth Of
pathos, the despair, the bitterness the longing for
sympathy, and the repoaches written in between
the lines of this letter strike deeply to the heart
and carry lesson to parents that cannot but bear
weight. The letter was published in the Seattle
Post Intelgenccr 1t was without date, written
on small blueruled, unglazed note book paper, in
pencil, in steady running hand and ran as fol-
lows:
"DEAR FATHrR:-Ths time will not plead poverty as an
excuse for nhctng this pencil written affair upon you
