from this committee. In it was stated that
the matter had been before the Supervisors
since the last meeting of the club, three
years before The City Fathers had been
asked at that time for $4,000 to build the
park, but they had put the request off from
was accomplished. The last movement in
the matter was made Thursday before the
Street Committee, and the petition of the
property-owners was put on file.
The report was read by NJ. J. Mertens,
secretary of the club. Mr.. Mertens stated
that the objection of the Supervisors here
tofore had been that they did not under
stand just what was wanted, for the reason
that no plans or specifications had been fur
nished with the petition. 1t was in vain
that the Supervisors were importuned to
have the City Engineer supply the required
data, and as last resort the executive
committee employed an engineer to do the
work.
Accompanying our last petition, said
Mr.. Mertens, was map and specitica-
tions, but these have apparently done no
good. Now, gentlemen, it rests with you
to say what shall be DONE
T. I. Atkinson, J. C. O'Connor, J. Figel,
William Mccormick E. NJ. Root and 9th
ers addressed the meeting, but respon-
sive chord was not struck until Colonel
O'Connor suggested that date be set for
the club to wait on the Street Committee in
body and demand recognition from the
Supervisors as did the Folsom-street clubs.
The suggestion was enthusiastically re-
ceived and it will be carried out in the
near future. 1t was also decided that each
member of the club would consider him
self committee of one to wait on any and
all Supervisors he knew, and it was also
concluded to ask Supervisor Wagner of the
Twelfth Ward for his cooperation.
The club heartily Endorsed the action of
the committee of the Board of Regents in

a down-East dressmaker tells of an ex-
acting patron who brought back dress
because 1t was too large in the waist, and
wanted it reftted. 1t was left for the pur-
pose, but before it was touched my lady
sent for It. Thinking her customer was
"notional" the dressmaker allowed it to go
thought it had been fixed. and now COM
planned that it was too tight in the waist.
1t was LETT as before, but nothing was done
to 1t, as the dressmaker had now grown
wise on the subject. It remained a few
days and was again tried by the customer.
This time the fit was perfect and the lady
has since repeatedly declared she never
was SO well suited.-LeYiston Journal.

Lizzie would come. What will she say?
Fifty thousand dollars! Why, father
said once that he wished he had just
that for his old age and for US, and no
more; it would be all"
Her mother, a little dazed, had gone
to bid the poor old guests a glad wei
come. Old Sarah, the dependence of
the doctors household, who seemed
entirely one of themselves, was away
that afternoon, and part of the sorrow
and uncertainty that was hardest TO
bear had been in the thought of turn
ing her out of her home, if they them
selves must go. Now the dear old
home was going on, and the little com
forts and helps for many u poor person
who was sick and old were to 60 on,
too.
The mystery of the legacy was never
made clear. Nelly vaguely remem-
bered her fathers saying something
about sick, old man, merchant in
Cuba, to whom he lent his thick plaid
In the cars one cold day, and to whom he
gave advice; and that wasaI. The good
doctor was always doing such things,
but the fact remained that one heart,
that seemed at the moment to forget his
kindness. had really remembered, and
was grateful for years Of health and
activity, which he had ceased to ex-
pect. Out of his wealth he had made
return, not only for himself, out for
many another beside.
And on Thanksgiving day, the doc
tors children and his wife took double
JOY in doing everything and more that
they had always loved TO do in the
old days. They tried to- give al the old
patients who were sick or sorry, some
thing TO remind them of their friendi
but indeed life that shines with love
and self-forgetfulness is q true star Of
light, and cannot be forgotten, no mat
ter in what part Of our heaven it may
be placed.
