Square Deal by the Maccabees.

Nj. James, who was drowned al
lion Mountain, had fled his applica.
ton for membership and paid the fees,
but the case had not been acted upon
at headquarters. The grand body, in
session at Detroit last week considered
the claim of his widow--for $1,000
and ordered it paid. The act will bring
many applicants to the doors of the
order; it was not only fair and honest,
but it was em'ncntly polite as well.

meals are furnished with liberal
hand, so that it is not an uncommon
thing for small families to order two
meals for two persons. which when
placed upon the table, with the addi-
ton of loaf of bread and a few bis
cults from the bakers, furnishes food
enough for three and sometimes four
persons, thereby reducing the price OF
living to almost less than nominal
sum.
You will say that this is not fair to
the caterer, but the caterers understand
the matter thoroughly, and know that
the meals are being used in that man.
ner, but they offer no objection for the
reason that they are making money
even in that way. If there was any
disposition on their part to object to
furnishing meals for three or four per-
yons for the price paid for two meals,
they could very readily cut down the
supply, so that their patrons might not
be benefited by their hberality. Thus
you see that when a young couple com
mence light housekeeping in fiat of
from three to FIVE or six rooms, there
could be no plan so cheap for them as to
order dinners and breakfasts for one at
six dollars week. This is not only
half the price they would be required
to pay for good board, but is about half
the amount they would expend in, their
regular marketing; or, better still, they
are able in this manner to dispense
with the services of servants, and there
by in Washington they are relieved of
the necessity of supporting all of the
unemployed relatives of servants.
One of the most successful OF these
caterers this morning explained briefly
his method of business He said: 'The
more people can serve of course the
better can do it. buy my provisions
great deal cheaper than any woman
could get them, because buy every
thing at wholesale and invariably pay
cash. run my business on weekly
basis, by which | mean that collect
from my customers at the close OF each
week. In this way am never obliged
to ask for credit myself, and in paying
cash for my provisions receive dis

wholesale prices. The average house.
wife thinks it is nice thing to run
bill at the grocery and at the butchers,
to be paid at the end Of the month. Thus
they go through their entire lives with
out being able to realize, no matter how
many times you tell them, that by pay
ing ready money they can get their
goods cheaper and Of better quality.
For example, the best sausage, made OF
select meat from the hams OF pork costs
thirty cents per pound in the Washing
ton market, and women who buy from
their butchers monthly pay from thirty
two to thirty-fve cents per pound for it,
or else they purchase inferior sausages,
which are usually impure food. pur-
chase ore hundred pounds of this best

able to secure for themselves.
A great many Of my readers do not
reside in the city where it is possible
for them to obtain all the comforts OF
home in this manner. but no matter
where, in palace OF hamlet, man may
dwell, he can consider and adopt
throughout the new year some means
and methods of tightening the burdens
which fall upon his wife. The most
pitiable creature on this earth, because
she is the most deserving of pity, is the
household drudge in civilized countries.
No woman reduced to such a condition
of slavery can be well fitted to be the
mother of a free and liberty-loving
family of American children. No man
who makes drudge of his wife de-
serves citizenship in such republic as
this. No man who permits his wife to
toll as a slave deserves to become the
father OF children, who will have suf-
frage in the next generation. Such
men are the ancestors of our Hay
market anarchists, our Guiteaus and
Reminders. SMITH u. FRY.

HOUSEHOLD DRUDGERY.
The Subject Discussed by Our Wash
ington Correspondent.
The Bright Idea of a Washington Negro
and Its Excellent Results - Meals
Furnished Twice o Day at
Very Low Rates.
Especial Washington letter.

In figuring up the household ex-
penses for the past year and the pros
pective cost of living for the new year
just commencing, the average husband
and father will be likely to omit from
his calculations the wear and tear and
waste of muscular energy, nervous
force and gentle life of the wife and
mother of the family; and yet if these
factors could be dealt with, in dollars
and cents, they would far exceed the
other expenditures which are often
times so carefully watched and so
grudingly met. In this day and gener-
alton throughout the civilized world,
woman is the creature OF mans pas
sions aud whims; is, in fact, the will
ling slave of the man whom she origin
ally desired to love and honor as well
as obey 1t is not an exaggeration to
state that the condition Of woman in
civilized life is but slight improve
ment over her condition in aboriginal
life. SO far as her relations to her hus-
band are concerned. True, men, wom-
en- and children live in better houses
and enjoy better food; they wear better
clothing and have better education; but
these betterments are uniform from the
eldest to the youngest, and the woman
is as much the slave of her civilized
lord and master as her sister upon the
prairies yet reserved as happy hunting
grounds for the original inhabitants OF
America.
In the national capital probably more
than any other city in this country an
industry has grown up in the past few
wears which will undoubtedly lsngthen
the lives of all women and prevent the
early coming of wrinkles about the
eyes, in the forehead and upon the cheek.
The principal labor of keeping house
consists in the matter of meal getting.
1t is enough to wear away the brain Of
the strongest philosopher in the history
of the. world to do the marketing for a
small family day after day and cater to
the tastes and appetites of unapprecia-
tive husbands and children who sur
round the board. It is a matter OF con-
slant effort, worry, anxiety and fear to
every woman in the world. Therefore,
probably the greatest luxury that can
be conferred upon any housewife con-
sists in relief from this trouble, SO that
she may have the meals placed upon
her table by skilled cook at any hour
desired, with no effort upon her own
part.

THE ADVENTURES OF a NEEDLE.
A Voyage of Discovery in Mr.. stiger's
Breathing Apparatus.

New YORK, January 10.-After a trip
of several years about the body of Oliver
NJ. Stiger, a wholesale druggist Of this
city, venturesome sewing needle
emerged few days ago into the light OF
day. The bit of steel started on its ex-
pIoring exhibition unheralded, and man
aged to find its way into Mr.. Stiger's
body in such an unobtrusive way that the
druggist to this day does not know when
and how he swallowed it. With several
inches Of thread aus a convoy, the needle
sailed hither and thither like q gay buc-
cancer, until a week ago Wednesday
night, when it came through the skin
under Mr. Stigor's right shoulder blade.
Oliver M. Stiger is a member of the firm
of Williams, Stiger & Co., of No. 20 Uni
avenue, Bayonne. He says that about
two years ago he suffered a severe attack
of pleurisy, which affected his right side.
He recovered, yet he was much troubled
with pains in his right lung. He was
troubled with violent coughing, and he
began TO suspect chat he was victim of
consumption. He consulted eminent
specialists, who examined his lungs and
pronounced them sound with the excep-
ton of small spot in the right one,
which seemed to be affected. The doe
tors were unable to understand his case,
but said that he seemed to be suffering
from no organic disease. Mr.. Stiger as
seIts that last summer the pain left his
right lung and began to travel about his
left side and back. The pain increased
in severity and when he retired week
ago Wednesday digit, it was almost I'M
!. IL irar n I'd
something for her husbands relief, no
ticed a red spot under his right shoulder
blade. From the centre of the spot pro
iected piece Of thread, which Mrs. Sti-
ger began to pull. Mr.. Stiger says that
his wife extracted a needle bound with
thread, which came out point first. It
had evidently started to come out and
then went back again, leaving the thread
in the place where the skin haa been
punctured. Hr. Stiger says that he
feels in excellent health and considers
himself a fortunate man. The needle is
now one of the family heirlooms Of the
Bayonne household.
