The Hired Girl Famine,

The one want which civilization is un- able to supply to order is the hired girl. Minneapolis has almost inexhaustible re- sources in all the necessities, comforts and luxuries for which man and woman yearn, except in that dire necessity, that exceeding comfort and rare luxury-the efficient, neat. faithful and responsible hired girl. With an output of clerks and typewriters equal only to that of flour and lumber, profusion of pretty girls as remarkable as our possession of lakes and parks, and an overflow of brainy and useful femininity like unto that of our proverbial enterprise and water power, Minneapolis must yet con- fess that in the line of first class article of hired girl we have scarcity approach ing famine.
 But the scarcity does not seem to be confined to this city. Even in the fertile country districts of the state, where sen- sible and industrious girls are supposed to grow up in prolific plenty, there is the same sharp demand and pitiable paucity.
 Our country readers even advertise in the want columns in the faint hope that a housekeeper may be bribed from her city position to accept a station as queen of rural kitchen. In short, the hired girl famine is general. It is getting to be the principal occupation of the mis- tress of house nowadays to hunt hired girls, and necessary qualification of wife that she be able to successfully steal, bribe or persuade away her neigh bors' girls
 Doubtless prominent cause of the hired girl famine is the fact that the girl who successfully masters the sciences and arts of cookery and housekeeping is immediately besieged with matrimonial offers. Girls of such accomplishments are never in danger of becoming old maids. Women of blood and brawn, health and domestic capacity, will be in demand as long as the home is the cradle of civilization, Minneapolis Tribune

Courage. Girl Graduated.

The most recent discovery (regarding women) is that brains are not incompati- ble with charm and beauty.
 did not expect, however, to live to hear of a mans rushing after woman and insisting upon marrying her on the strength of one article in newspaper. All young women who have been secret ly pining to be as clever as they knew how, but didn't dare for fear of fright ening off possible suitors, may now take heart and put their brains as well as their bodies on exhibition
 Here's the story. About year ago a Memphis paper offered prize of twen- ty dollars to whatever young woman wrote the best essay on "The Model Husband At Covington. about thirty miles from Memphis, there lived Miss Lillian Perry, who is said to be "a typ ical southern girl" whatever that may mean. Miss Perry won the prize,
 Lo and behold the essay was copied in Minneapolis journal, where it was read by Freemont Reed, prosperous citizen, who fell in love with the senti- ments therein expressed. Going to New York, "The Model Husband" pursued him in metropolitan papers and waylaid him on his arrival in Chicago.
 "This is fate" said Mr. Reed unto himself. "The fair essayist must be mine for lifer'
 Thereupon the ardent Minneapoltan wrote to Miss Perry and begged for the honor of corresponding with her, Miss Perry had been very well brought mp and wouldn't. Refusal but whets the appetite of man, and Mir Reed would have disgraced his sex had he taken mo" for an answer Armed with cre- dentials he again requested an inter change of letters, and the typical south ern girl melted in the glow of such per sistence
 Of course no man, in or out of his senses. stops at letters. MT. Reed found himself in Covington one day and called The lady fulfilled the ideal of her corre- spondent. She in turn discovered a model husband. On a second visit she became engaged to Mir. Reed. and last October made them man and wife.

 After the singing of an anthem, the dedication sermon was preached by Rev. c. R. Nugent, ot Tombstone. It has been long while since Phoenix audience has had the privelege of listen- ing to so eloquent discourse.
 It wo id well be worth printing at length, but THE REPUBLICAN was unable to get it. This was followed by another anthem, and historical sketch by M. w. Messenger.
 The dedication exercises were lead by the pastor, and consisted of responsive reading. in an impressive manner.
 The closing prayer was rendered by Rev. I. T. Whittimore.
 The song service was very beautiful and the selections were exceedingly we'll rendered especially, the quartette, led by Mrs. w. B. Pratt, deserves the praise of everybody and was treat for the lovers of music.
 The members of that church may justly be commended for their persis- tent effort which resulted in the erection of their present church edifice, than which there is none finer or more com modious in the territory.
 The pastoral year opens with fine prospect for much good to follow. Dr. Nugent returned to Tombstone on last nights train.
