ture and sketch of Mrs. Mary E. Jeffer-

"Since coming to New York, Mrs.

which he is connected.
"The 'Co.operutye Work. the home

women, has in it much of the common
sense genius OF Mis-. Wilson. Her practi,
cal home methods have made it largely
what II is, together with the housekeeper
of her own choice, who has earnestly
carried out her plans. They together
have had much 10 do with the extraor-
binary SUCCESS of the undertaking. II is
a place without rules, save those Of
common propreiy, and is run abso-
lutely on the family plan.
Last winter sue accompanied her son
to California, and upon her return de.
lighted all her friends and family by
giving lecture at one of the church
entertainments on What a Woman Saw
Crossing the Continent, that for.powor
OF description, beauty of diction and
literary excellence completely charmed
all who heard it. For moro than one
hour, without the slightest oratorical
effort, In her own quiet, wolnanly, con-
versauonal way, she held her audience
entranced. Al tho close, among the
numerous congratulations. none were
more appreciated than her husband s.
who came forward, and, taking hei
hands in his, said: well, wife, you have
always been giving me pleasant sur.
prises, but never one more pleasing than

Mrs. Stout was located, and Thursday
an agent went to the house and was met
by the younger Mrs. Stout fIe asked
her what she intended to do She said
she was unable to make any further
payments and said the agent could have
the machine II the money Sue had paid
was refunded.
AS II would have cost considerable to
get II by legal process, the agent con.
eluded the wisest thing to do would be
to refund the money. Accordingly, he
gave her the $3 she had paid and re.
ceived a receipt in full, after which the
woman opened the door and told the
agent he could come in and get the
machine.
The younger Mrs. Stout went back
into the house as if to get the machine
ready TO be taken away, and before the
agent saw it he heard her say to the
Older Mrs. Stout, her mother.in-law
Don't do that; you'll be arrested 70 The
mother.in'law replied that she did not
care. Then the agent alleges that he
saw her with u pair Of scissors or some
other sharp instrument in her hands dc.
facing the nicely polished top Of the
machine. She was evidently angry be.
cause it was about TO be removed from
the house.
The young woman, realizing what
her motheiin.law had done, apologized
TO the agent and exonerated herself
from all blame and explaining that her
mother-ln-law had done all the damage.
She seemed thoroughly sorry for what
had happened, and perfectly willing
that the agent should have the machine.
Finally it was removed from the
house, and Agent Mcdonald had 1t
taken to the Office Of Magistrate Nc.
Mhorter, where the action was taken.
