A POLICE COURT O-P,rrUNITY.

There was a pretty, blue-eyed girl in
the Yorkville Police Court yesterday
who, though but seventeen years of age.
had come to more wretchedness OF ex-
perience than has fallen to a lifetime
OF the majority OF her sex. She had
found out mans perfidy. And through
the persuasions of the same man who
brought her to her first great sin she
had been led to the commission of the
crime OF theft She had stolen a gold
locket from the house where she was

the mistress OF the house. young
| woman but little older than the accused.
| appeared In court as the complainant in

| The girl prisoner told her whole story
TO the court. She told II tearfully, and
everybody in the room felt that she told
It truthfully. The Justices voice fall
tered as he spoke to her. The lawyer
assigned to defend the prisoner turned
impusively to the girls accuser, asking
her II she would not withdraw the COM
plant. To his request the fair young
prisoner added her plcadings. do

To the Editor:
A maid Of seventeen thinks shes born to be

She believes a charm 80 keen as her own cannot

And thinks that every young man should ADORE
her
To crImp and curl her hair many hours she can

And before mirror on she pouts and poses;
And she sweeps about the place with naughty

How to seem sweet how to be neat
How to do all fancy dances:
How to beguile. just how to smile.
And--sit up late reading romances

And believes you ought to tell her all about It.
Her lips and cheeks 80 fair a natural color wear.
And forever she will hate you II you doubt It,
Through every street In town she will wander up
and down.
Imagining all eyes upon her linger;
And II u young man chances to respond to her
coy glsnces
She'll think that she can wind him around her

She's but seventeen. q little bit green.
And It's not a great treat to behold her:
She Is dull somewhat slow. but Its pleasing
to know
This maid will grow wiser and older.

The Poor Always With Us.

To the Editor:
Thomas Cooper wishes to hear from men
who can solve the question why It Is impossi-
BILE 70. all men at all times to get suficient
food to nl their Etomachs. same as the lower
animals. sparrows. &C, This is not for men to
solve: no man ever has ever will: even though
men try. It will result In nothing more than
effort God has so ordained that the poor shall
always bs with U.s. The poor are Gods chosen
people. 3, poverty and suffering they come to

they have no thought Of the morrow; how much
more are we above the birds and greater In God s
eyes Then, should We not be content, Thomas,
your heart Is all right but you need to intro
ducs economy into It. While we aid the poor
we should lie careful lest we ensender discomfort.
This is the evil that we. as a people. should try
to ward OF. Discomfort is the mother OF the
many evils which We see. and are always
arising In all nations JAMES

Pretty Table Manners.

1t Is good form TO break Off morsels
Of bread. toast, biscuits and cake; 1t Is
vulgar to bite into a slice. 1t Is good
form to train the left hand to use the
fork a gentleman does not lay down
his knife and take the fork in his right
hand when the course consists Of meat
and a salad. 1t is good form to eat
slowly and quietly only vulgar people
are noisy. 1t is good form to sit erect. to
keep the arms off the table. to look
pleasant, and to keep room In the mouth
for a laugh. People who eat like cattle
should be induced to take meals in
sheds or vacant lots. Babies and men
and women. in their second childhood,
can be excused for soldering at table.

Bible records but three individuals-Adam, Eve

THE TRAMP QUESTION.

Undeterred by the failure OF his f1rst
attempt to collect an army of tramps
in Washington, Gen. CoNey announces
his intention OF trying again, and cx-
poets to muster 1904 900 men as an I'm
dustrial army" to be on parade at the
National capital by the opening OF the
Winter session of Congress.
There is unfortunately only too much
reason to fear that Covcyism mag be
more successful in its second venture
than II was in Its first There has
been a great increase in the number Of
unemployed, the long continuance Of
hard times has depressed and disheart-
ened those who have been thrown out of
work. Idleness and the pressure Of
poverty have caused n loss of self-re-
spect. and the increase Of professional
trampism Is one OF the melancholy
features Of the times.
The most conspicuous illustration OF
the situa ton Ia furnished in the State
OF New Jersey. which derives many ad-
vantages from Its position between the
two great manufacturing centres OF
New York and Pennsylvania, and which
now suffers the natural drawbacks of
It's central position. 1t has become the
trunk line OF tramp passenger travel
to such an extent that the railroad
companies find themselves seriously en-
barrassed In operating their properties,
and the evil is on the increase.
The tramp question Is going to be a
serious one next Winter. There Is only
one remedy for the evil, and that Is n
restoration OF the normal business con-
ditions of the country. In other words.
this trouble. like many others, demands
the passage OF a satisfactory and final
Tariff bill.

Dainties with Cold Meat.

1t is too bad to set cold meat before a
family and nothing else. 1t Is feast
or famine in most houses. The chefs
are wiser. They pride themselves in
dressing up scraps and piectng out a
meal with inexpensive dainties. For ex-
ample: Delicate slices of cold beef or
tongue sent to table garnished with
baked tomatoes. stewei bee.s and fried
apples. or the cold trim Slices trimmed
with sliced tomatoes, hari-boiled eggs
and lemon, and served with stuffed cgs
plant and baked green pears. Make 4
special course of stewed caulifiower or
cucumber, Will dry toast and cream
gravy; fellow an ice cold salad with
banana llee!s fl. ed with "an'''a tee
cream, and It there are SIX sponge cakes
and n pint OF black coffee everybody
will be full If contentment.

About the Baby.

Do not blow the food to cool It. The
breath is often impure. and will make
the food injurious to the child.
Never roll the towel up In hard knots
1r twist around pin to poke at the
babys ears or nostrils with the idea of
cleaning them.
Never try to wash further than you
an see. and always use the softest of
cloths.
In bathing child never let the water
run into its ears by putting its head too
low In the tub
Never on any account tickle a child.
In general. keep 1t as sweet. clean and
placid as possible.

Rooms with Many Doors.

The room with many doors is often
sore vexation to the woman who Is
striving to evolve a pleasing interior.
What can you do with such room?
asks some one in despair. In the first
place, see how many of the doors can
be conveniently dispensed with In your
going and coming. If any, make the
door an ornamental panel, on which
pictures or a bracket with a good piece
of bric-a-brac, or set of shelves may
be hung. II there Is sufficient height
between the top Of the door and the
ceiling, put a shelf for SNOWY ornaments
that have good color over the door, or
a long, narrow mirror or fowery pic
ture. Some of the studies that come
with art magazines are used to great
advantage in this place. A different
effect may be had by placing a tall
bookcase or buffet or a sofa against the
door, and often this is improved by first
covering the door with some harmonious
hanging used In folds. or SO plain and
straight that 1t looks only like q panel.

While over the pillows from her pier
Sped . khip with human freight
She called.
But ere long there came In sight
Cutting the water fore her PROV,
while upon her the sun shene bright
She sailed to meet her foe.
They met.
Then belched forth with Humorous clap
which shook the mighty deep.
The smoke that cleared from the spot
Revealed dreadful scene.
The water poured.
While slowly down tho doomed ship went.
Cries OF agony the still air rent
The forms leaping into air.
Striking the water to rise no more.
She sank

The billow- crested water foamed.
while o'erhead the screeching birds did soar
She sank to rise no mora.

Vegetable Courses.

A diner may be made very attractive
by serving some delicately prepared
vegetable as a separate course. Hot or
cold asparagus, artichokes and cauli-
flower are excellent; IL hot have a
mayonnaise or French dressing; II cold
have 1t ice-cold. and serve with hot
cream gravy or a mayonnaise. The cold
vegetables seasoned twice, with French
dressing first. and then a mayonnaise
made Of lime juice, are worth trying.
II the dinner is slender, have nice rolls
and fresh butter or delicate buttered
toast. Baked stuffed tomatoes, cream

green peppers make inexpensive and
satisfactory entrees. 1t takes a little
more time and increases the dish wash
