At nine o'clock Saturday morning,
after an hour or more of careful adj

frightened glances in the mirror and
somewhat gratified surveys toward the
floor, the young lady appeared in the

am acquainted with a man who is
always talking about certain Enoch
Hawkins; whatever is under discus
sion ray friend quotes something
Enoch Hawkins has said on the sub
ject and it seems to fit exactly. l was
anxious to know more about Enoch
Hawkins, but he was apparently such
a wise man that l was ashamed to in
quire, supposing him to be a noted
character who had escaped my read
ing. Finally could contain my Curl
osity no longer, and asked the favor OF
knowing more about Enoch Hawkins,
He turned out to be hired man who
had worked for my friends father on a
farm, and my friend said that Enoch
Hawkes. was the smartest man he had
ever known. EnOch never rose above
a farm hand and died farm hand of
old age, while employed in that capa-
city in the township where he had
spent most of his life. He was known
for many miles around as wit and
philosopher, and his wit and philoso-
ply were of a particularly good quail
ity, judging from the samples with
which l am familiar.
Only few of the remarkable men
are preserved in the literature of his
tory. Among the common people in
every community there is a great
genius who is forgotten at his death; l
have myself known as remarkable peo-
pie in my Lneventful life as have met
in books. Had Enoch Hawkins been
attended by a Boswell, a Life of
Hawkins" would have been as inter-
esting as Boswelrs Life of johnson"
In reading Boswell's johnson, l have
often been unable to detect either wit
or wisdom, but the sayings of Enoch
Hawkins, as preserved by his friend,
are always sharp and pointed.
Had Enoch lived at the right time,
and in the right place, and had his
genius been of exactly the right kind,
he might have been Lincoln, instead
of an unknown farm hand. 1t is not
surprising that he never rose above a

As the young lady entered the H.

tion-and it was from her lips, too.
There, in front of her, stood the other
members Of the family. Her father
her old, gray-haired father-was ar
rayed in purple coat with silver
braid, bright yellow tights and red top
boots. Her mother had green dress
of vivid hue which only reached her
ankles, while the old grandmother was

had neglected to bank, and then had
the satisfaction of hearing the burglar
say:

For heavens sake, don't shoot"
gasped the frightened man.
Then the burglar laughed uproari-

back the watch and money to Mr.. Post.

THE SPRING SEWING.
1t Should BE Finished Up Before Sun
mer begins.

1t Should BE Finished Up Before Sum-
mer Begins.
1t is claimed that two or three hours
spent daily in the open air is essential
to perfect health, but how to take SO
much time from necessary duties is a
great problem in wOman's life.
Unfortunately all of the average
woman's duties lie indoors and must
perforce be done there-sweeping and
busting and sewing; and, if she have d
family of children, and purse not
over-full, the sewing is enough to oc-
cupy her every day and all day.
Few women have settled rule about
taking exercise, and friend of the
writer, living in the country, who con-
fessed that she never went outside her
doors for two months last winter, is
but type of many who lead shut-in
lives because they do not realize the
absolute need OF outdoor air for their
mental and physical well-being.
Nothing is more natural than for a
mother to wish to see her children
prettily and appropriately dressed, but
if this can only be done by constant
and unremitting labor, which obliges
her to give up the privilege of being 4
companion to her children, is it not
great and fatal mistake?
Simple clothing and a mother inter-
ested and companionable are better
for every child than all the luxury in
the world; and if the good times which
they have together can be taken out
of doors, how fortunate for every one
concerned!
A good way to dispose of the neces-
sary spring sewing" is to engage
skilled seamstress who operates the
sewing machine. If the garments are
cut out beforehand, she will be able, if
they are plain in style and simple in
construction, to do all the machine
work in three or four days on a large
number. Simple gingham slips for or
binary wear in summer, which are
quickly made and easily Numbered,
should form the principal part of every
Young child's wardrobe at that sea.
son. With this work all done, sum
mer, when it comes, may be fully en-
joyed by the mother as well as the
children.
In one household known to the
writer Il seamstress is engaged to come
one day each week during three
months, January, February and March,
and the intervals between are spent in
finishing the work she has left, and
planning other work for the next sew.
ing day. Surely some plan could be
devised by every woman to reduce
this necessary work to system, and
enable her to enjoy daily outing with
her children in the lovely days OF
spring and early summer, unfettered
by worry about the sewing ,-Harper'S
Bazaar.
