But she is far from meaning any harm.
Society not having made up its mind to
accept the working female bachelor, she
gets no ladylike dissipation. She goes to
many fine functions and gorgeous
dwellings to ''do" the dresses, but she is
only there on sufferance. The servants
regard her as a young person, and their
betters are little afraid of her. Besides
they are not quite sure that she is not
rather improper young woman. Mice"
mammas in slightly lower circles cannot
countenancc her or permit their daughters

BE Economical.

A great deal of unnecessary expense may
be saved In housekeeping without dcpriv-
ino the r.milv of the best the market of.
fords by systematic course of borrowing
prime articles OF butter, tea, coffee, etc,
from the neighbors and repaying the samo
in goods of an inexpensive character, or
the act of repayment may be neglected nj.
together with proft-for limited period.
AS general thing, however, it is good
economy to meet ono's debts of this kind
in the manner that has been suggested.
1t Is far better to pay the butcher than
the doctor. Therefore, if member of tho
family fall i'll, 1t is clearly improvident to
waste money IN the employment of ply
s:ylan or upon drugs and medicines. In
stead rather spend the money upon prime
cuts of meat and artificially raised fruits
and vegetables If the sick person cannot
eat these luxuries, tho well ones, including
yourself, can cat them, so that not only Is
money saved, but there is q distinct and
perceptible gain to- you in the matter OF
diet.
Cleanliness is % commendable thing in
its way, but a greater saving may DO ef-
fected in soap and water by less frequent
washing of clothing than generally OBJ
tains, and the money saved in these article
may be spent to advantage upon diamonds
and jewelry, which, it need not be said,
are Indispensable to any one who would
make a good impression in polite society
1t is poor economy to purchase any of the
patented foods prescribed for reaches and
water bugs. These household pets will
thrive quite as well upon bread crumbs,
meat refuse and tablo sorts generally, and
the expense is not appreciablo.
A great saving in coal may be effected
by allowing the fires to go out immediate
ly after meal is prepared. This gives you
an opportunity to go to your neighbors for
warmth, and as your house is uncomfort-
ably cold the visits you make will not be
returned, and thus you economize In two
ys.-New York News.

To Help Mill Girls.

Shorter hours would do great deal for
mill girls. They would have moro time
for amusement, that recognized human
need, moro time for culture to relieve the
deadly monotony of their working hours
and especially moro time to learn the lit
tie arts of thrift and economy so necessary
for women. Very few of them know how
to sew to make or even to mend their
Clothes Their ignorance of household
matters and of cooking is dense All this
is bad enough for themselves as girls, but
when they marry their ignorance affects
husbands and children as well. Badly
Iooked food and dirty house too often
drive to drink and the many miscries that
follow In it's train.
Those who teach and help the mill girls
are hampered and baffled by the fact that
they have no time to learn, and that the
wearied body and dulled brain fall per-
force into the stupor of exhaustion. If we
cannot have shorter hours, give us ut least
tho Saturday half holiday, not in summer
only, but throughout the year. Much can
be learned in a few hours u week, and the
girls will have an opportunity to rest.
wherever mans social opportunities
have been most limited, says Miss Glare
dc Graffenreid, industrial and political
progress has been slowcst Wherever
women and children arc condemned to ex-
cessive toll, where the fatal industrial
policy prevails of sacrificing human lives
to produce and accumulate wealth, instead
of the broad and humane policy of using
wealth to save and improve human lives,
there the homes are always most miscr-
able, there reign illitcracy, pauperism and
vice. Each reduction in the hours of
work, from 16 to II, from IA to ~, from
IL to 10, have occasioned immediate and
enormous improvement in the condition
of the laboring classes. Shorter hours tend
not only to provide occupation for mil
lions of unemployed, but will stimulate
production and widen our markets by
multiplying wants They will make edu
cation possible and conduce 20 higher
moral and social development in the
home. ."-Elizabeth Morris mill Girl, "

Mrs. Judd's Laundry.

Mrs. Isabel Judd OF Chicago, who was
left widow u few years ago without
means, is making fortune by high
class laundry. She had been accustomed
to opulence and tried in vain to turn her
various accomplishments to pecuniary ac-
count before she hit upon her present busi
ness. The Isabella laundry makes a
speciality of doing up fine table linen,
which it is hard to get well laundered. 1t
washes and delivers thousands of napkins
daily to tho different Chicago clubs. 1t is
run wholly by women, who find the pay
better and the surroundings pleasanter
than in q factory
Mrs Judd takes pains to make the work
rooms comfortable and attractive. She
provides a place where the women and
girls can get themselves warm lunch
and has rented and tastefully furnished a
fiat as q home for those who have not
homes of their own. No work is done
after $3.50. Hence women of exceptional
intelligence are glad to enter her employ.
The forewoman is u young American WON
an who used TO be n professional nurse.
She says her present work is easier, pleas
anter and moro profitable, and it is her
ambition some day TO run n laundry Of
her own. In this she is encouraged by
Mrs Judd, who is u warm believer in this
kind of work for intelligent women thrown
