For Crippled Children.

There Is charitable movement being
carried on by several young society la
dies Of this city for the purpose of es-
tablishing fund for the relief of the de-
formed and crippled unfortunates of the
Children's hospital, deformed by nature
or accident, and whose only hope in this
world is derived from the sympathy and
charity of others. Besides being de-
formed and crippled, many of these I'm
fortunate children are SO poor as to pre-
vent them from having such mechanical
appliances as would, in a general meas
ure, relieve their sufferings and contrib
ute largely to their permanent recovery
These appliances the fund of the Chill
dren's hospital is not sufficient to supply
These ladies propose to establish, with
the aid Of such persons as are willing to
assist, a fund to be called the "crutch
and splint fund of the Childrens hos
pital
They propose to buy clutches, splints
and the mechanical devices necessary for
the Use Of these children, who are
doomed to 90 through life crippled and
unless something is done in their be-
half-in pain Much suffering will be
ayerted. and many childish faces now
sad will light up with hope and cheer
fulness 1t will be necessary to have
about $4,000 for the support of this fund

A Springfield man has been so busy
making money this week that he didn't
see any way but to hire small boy to
go up to his house and perform the ne
cessary operation of breaking the sprouts
from about two bushels of potatoes In
his cellar He found the boy and gave
him instructions, By some misunder
standing the boy thought sproating pc
tatoes a very different operation from
what it really is, and that man was a
very angry owner of spoiled potatoes
when he got home that night. He
found that the boy had carefully cut
each potato into pieces Of a size suitable
for planting Sprin III Homestead

A clothes pole or .'costumer' may now
be found in every kind Of wood to
match bedroom sets. In white enamel
and gold they cost ten dollars. This is
a pole mounted on a three legged stand
ard, with hooks all around it at the top
to hang the clothing on at night. Il
serves to keep dresses and other cloth
ing in daily Wear from becoming
wrinkled by being thrown across a
chair. 1t Is by no means desirable to
put clothing that has been worn away
at once in close wardrobe or closet
Such clothing should be hung in a room
TO be well aired at night, or at the least
several hours before it is put away For
this use the ''costumer' serves an excel
lent purpose.-New York Tribune

Egypt's Consideration for the Dog.

1t has been suggested that the con-
sideration which the Egyptians of old
had for the dog possessed some con
nection with their dependence for pros
perity upon the periodical overhows Of
the Nile To these floods they looked
forward, as they do now. with anxiety,
and it 50 happened that the inunda-
tons were customarily announced by
the appearance in the heavens Of
Sirius, the dog star. As soon as that
orb was seen above the horizon they
fastened to remove their hoeks TO
higher grounds and abandoned the
lower pastures to the fertilizing stream.
They hailed it as their god and pro-
tector and called it the dog star be-
cause of its apparent watchfulness over
and protection Of their interests. one

Ia speaking of her illness to particular
frlend of the lady the cause of if
was brought out. She is allowed by
net husband so much month for
dresses, During the last social season
she bought so many handsome ball cos
tunes that her allowance only seemed a
urop IN the bucket toward paying for
them. Her costumes attracted so much
attention that her vanity was excited
ana she endeavored, with each succeed
ing dress, to surpass the last. This she
succeeded in doing. Every action must
nave corresponding reaction. Her
pleasure, caused by being the best dressed
woman in Louisville, has given place TO
her sorrow, caused by her having the
largest millinery bills of any woman in
Louisville
The bills were sent to her, amounting
TO $l,290 She Immediately retired to
her bed. Doctors were sent for. but for
week she continued to grow worse
Her husband became alarmed, and told
her that if she would just get well he
would do anything for her She said
She could not. AT last, in despair, she
told him if he would just pay her bill
and forgive her she would try and get
well. he promised. He paid the bill
From that moment she began to recu-
perate, and in few days was almost en-
tlrely well. She then confessed to her
husband, who forgave her. She has
promised to live within her allowance
which he has increased. So they are
happy again.-Louisville Commercial.

A Glimpse of Grandeur for Working Girls

A Glimpse of Grandeur for Working Girls.
One of the best known ladies in this
city, and one whose home is perhaps the
most elegant of all the palatial mansions
on the hill, is preparing an April sur
prise for her proteges, the working girls
which will doubtless cause consterna-
ton in society of a certain order.
This lady, whose name cannot be
printed at present. for the reason that
she desires her surprise to be a genuine
one, will throw open her beautiful home,
adorned with all that affiuence and good
taste can secure to the happy possessor
to the girls whose lives have been cast in
less pleasant places than her own. The
working girls of the city are to be in
vited to reception, and the hostess,
who knows hundreds of them personally
and admires them collectively, will see
to it that the guests spend one Of the
happiest evenings Of their lives under
her roof. There is to be nothing half
hearted about this reception of the girls
who work. They will be received with
all the pomp that would greet women Of
the hostess own set. There will be the
same floral decorations. the same brill
liant lighting, and the sans delicate at
tention always accorded guests OF this
truest of true ladies. The affair is to
be As brilliant as lavish expenditure and
earnest effort can make it.-St. Paul
