console herself with this thought, and
not make herself and everybody else
miserable because of q dim mirror or
q whitened chair-rung. I have i'm
pressed painfully upon my mind the
picture of a young married friend,
fragile in appearance, and, in truth,
whose life was worn TO a thread by her

Of large house, entirely furnished as
to floors, mantels and wainscoting in
polished antique oak. She kept two
servants, but the parlormaid had time
to dust the house only once per diem.
The remainder of the time the so-called
mistress undertook to keep things
clean. Ny most vivid recollection of
her is as she appeared two-thirds of the
time, worn and weary, with q dust
cloth in her hand. She used to say,
half laughing, half sorrowfully, that
fit legend for her tombstone would be:
"Dust thou art, to dust returneth."

thing must be crowded out" Let us
housekeepers accept this truth as in

Clothes of their own or have friends will
ing 10 provide them with clothes, wear
them, while the less fortunate are sup
FLIED by the poor law department with
what they require. In the latter case,
the dress, though as plain as possible,
is warm and comfortable, and of the
kind worn by the artisan class, OF gray
or brown homespun, or dark-colored
serge. 1t is not uniform; indeed, as
IL is made in the building. il is exceed
ipgly probable that they who wear it
at least if they be women-have a
voice in deciding its fashion. With the

CURED TO keep their clothes in good re-
pair and TO pay a certain amount OF
attention TO their own personal appear
ance. These are points which, es-
pecially in Vienna, are strongly insisted
upon; for the city does not choose TO
have its old pensioners going about
dirty or in rags. The hall porter has
strict orders 10 allow no one 10 go out
until he has 'tidieS up" and this reg
rlation is warmly approved by ma
iority Of the inmates. To an out
slider it certainly seems superfuOus, for
most of the old people are the very pic
ture of neatness. They all appear TO
have q good supply of clothes. One of
the inmates IF the Prague home In
sisted on showing me his wardrobe.
In addition to the rough gray suit be
was wearing, he had Z pair of dark trou-
sers and waistcost, q black coat, and a
long blue overcoat, oil in thoroughly
good condition. He had, too. under his
care, a silk gown, which he displayed
with infinite pride. IL was his wife's
wedding dress. he told me. His wife,
who lives in another wing of the build

him for greater safety. "She always
wears it. though, of course, when we
pay visits he remarked incidentally.
One of the laundry regulations Of the
homes sounds in English ears "a a
sorry jest; yet, perhaps, after all, IL
has its raison d'etre. The inmates are
warned that IL is only their bed linen
and clothes that are washed free Of

Alkau Ike Tells of What Happened at the
Wedding He Attended.
"Did you attend the wedding out at
old man Jucketts place last night,
Il;e?" asked Judge Stringer, the well
known Oklahoma jurist~
"Yepi" answered Alkai Ike.
'Had lively time, 1 presume?"
''Eh-yah! Some ways it was mid.
dim lively an other ways il was slower
than snails. Thar was no shootin', an
the Ticker was mizzable. But, take il

other, it was what you might call q
pleasant affair from start to finish. The
preacher didn't show up at the ap-
p'inted hour, but we didn't miss him for
quite a spell, OWN to the fact that the
brides mother, who 'peared TO he an
advanced woman, sorter objected to
Kickapoo Pete, who was supposed TO
be the groom, and got after him with
a soap paddle or suthin' of the kind an
chased him all over the lot.
''She needn't have put herself to the
trouble, for the bride got to thinkin'
the matter over, an concluded that she'd

around her some little time before, an

This promised to satisfy all parties
concerned, but the bride found out that

side against her hand in marriage

made her so blamed mad thatshe swors

an they were playin' along as contented
as a couple of kittens. They slipped
their hands into book and give it to
Appetite Bill to hold while the preacher
was gettin' off the solemn words that
made the two hearts one. An then,
after they had congratulated the bride,

DISPOSITION OF WEALTH.
The Natural Feeling of Distrust for Thos

Richer Than Ourselves.
There is natural feeling of dist-rst
and even disapproval of wealth, es-
pecially on the part of those who have
never possessed ii. 1t is natural also
that this should be a sliding scale, and
that each person should regard the next
largest taxpayer as too rich Thirty
years ago, at the seaside resort called
Pigeon Cove, or Cape Ann, there was 2
village wit known habitually as Old
Knowlton, q retired fisherman, who de
lighted 70 corner IN argument set OF
eminent clergymen who then resorted
there, as DIR. Chaplin, Dr.. Gannett, DR..
Bartol, Thomas Starr King and others.
He liked to swear before them, TO ask
hard questions out of the Old Testament
and TO call them faIniliarly by their last
names. One day he was much startled
on asking about DR.. Gannett's salary to
hear that it was $1,000, which would
not now be regarded as q large sum
but seemed TO him enormous why,

money? You can't know how TO man

states; and, it is predicted. to be ele-
