1t is common remark with hun
dreds of men that they wonder "what
women find to do all day" Some
times curiosity gets the better of a
man and he asks his wife what she
has done all day. ooh, a hundred
and one little things" she says. Then
he thinks of some momentous scheme
over which he has been working all
day, and makes mental comparison,
in which his wife's work takes second
place. He overlooks the fact, how
ever, that a woman's life in the home
is made up of "little things" not only
necessary, but that they are abso-
lutely vital to the adjust ment of the
domestic machinery of his home.
They are ''little" only in a woman's
eye; they would instantly assume
proportions of magnitude if the mans
hands were to try to do them. Id

DON'T KNOW WHAT WE WANT.

Most people after struggling to get
thing find that after all they don't
| want it. The dream of poverty
stricken writer's is plenty of money, a
| library or study fitted out in luxury
peace, quiet, and a chance to write
New York Telegraph they wouldn't
be happy. Many of our noted writers
graduated from newspaper offices and
have grown so accustomed to the con-
slant racket made by machines, tele-
graph instruments and typewriters
that their luxury and quiet paralyzes
instead of inspiring their brain.
Mark Twain used to shut himself up
for hours in his magnificently appoin-
ted study at Hartford and write not
a line. In despair he would gather up
papers and pen and wander over to
Gillett's farm, hunt up a barrel in the
barn to sit on and scribble away for
dear life, while young Will Gillette
now the playwright and actor-and
his boy friends were making Rome
howl in their fun. Usually Charles
Dudley Warner would be- discovered
in another corner of the barn with
pad of paper, drawn to the same noisy
and inspiring place from his beautiful
home.
Frank L. Stanton, one of the most
prolific writer's of verse in the land
and verse that is of good quality and
which attracts notice everywhere,
writes on pine table IN the exchange
room of the paper he is on. He is a
marvelously rapid writer.
Bradner Matthews, when he lived in
Hartford possessed a complete and
splendid library, a broad cherry desk
elegantly fitted out-everything the
literary man could desire. Did he
ever write there? Not he. Usually
when the maid wanted to set the
table for dinner she would have to
order the professor to vacate, for he
loved to turn back a flap of cloth and
scribble on the corner of the table.

TEN NEW AND ORIGINAL SONGS
TO BE HAD FREE.

What will the great metropolitan
papers do next? This is the question
some one asks nearly every day. But
there is one which leads all others. 1t
has gained the sobriquet of "Amer-
ica's Greatest Newspaper" by just
sucn remarkable pieces of enterprise
as the one which has just now attract
the country.
Last week the New York Sunday
World announced that it would give
away an album of new and original
music, consisting of ten of the up TO
date class of songs that are now so
popular, such as songs of sentiment,
"coon" songs, ''cakewalks," etc.
These ten songs the Sunday World
proposes to distribute one each week
with every copy of the Sunday World
When it is considered that the aver
age price of new music, written and
composed by popular authors, is from
80 to 45 cents, the unparalleled enter
terprise of the World in giving the
song away with a big Sunday news
paper, for which only cents is charg-
ed, is apparent. The World requests
that we publish the following an
nouncement;
Music Album free. From Sept. to
Nov. 5, the Sunday World will issue
weekly a song in sheet form, with
handsome colored cover. The entire
set will be mailed, postage paid, for
Soc Remittance received after Sept
8 will get the back numbers and each
new number issued. Besides the
song, the World will also send its col
ored Art Portfolio, which is marvel
of journalism, its Sunday Magazine,
which equals the monthly periodicals
and it's Comic Weekly, which excels
every comic weekly in the United
States except two, and in it's comic
scope equals these 1O-cent publica-
tons.
Write a postal card to the Sunday
World Music Editor, Pulitzer Building,
N. Y, for list of the songs.

A Letter to Mrs. Pinkham Brought
Health to Mrs. Archambo.


"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM-For two
years I felt tired and so weak and dizzy
that some days I could hardly go
around the house. Backache and head
ache all the time and my food would
not digest and had such pains in the
womb and troubled with leucorrhoea
and kidneys were affected.
''After birth of each child I grew
weaker, and hearing so much of the
good you had done, wrote to you and
have taken six bottles of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, one
box of Lozenges, one box of Liver Pills,
one package of Sanative Wash, and to-
day [ am feeling as well as / ever did.

fresh as 1 did when girl and eat and
sleep well and do all of my work. If
ever feel weak again shall know
where to get my strength. / know

ARCHAMBO, CHARLEMONT, MASS.
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
leled; for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department of
her great business, treating by letter
as many as hundred thousand ailing
women year. All women who suffer
are invited to write to Mrs. Pinkham

FlRSTCLASS BLDNDERS.

J. III. Engle, of Kansas, quotes the
general freight agent of large rail-
road, who says he will in the future
employ no young men who smoke
cigarettes, and that he in tends to get
rid of all now in his department who
smoke them. eighty five per cent, -
he says, "of the mistakes made in
the Office by my two hundred clerks
are traceable to the thirtytw who
use cigarettes"
Thirty two would be less than one
sixth of the two hundred clerks en-
ployed. They would be entitled to
make about sixteen per cent. of the
mistakes made in the Office. Instead
of being content with their proper
share of blunders, which would be
sixteen out of hundred, or one for
two men, they made eighty five out OF
a hundred of the plumbers, or about
two and two thirds plumbers to every
smoker; while the hundred and sixty
eight non smokers have only fifteen
mistakes to divide among them, which
gives not quite one mistake to eleven
non smokers, against two and two
thirds plumbers made by each smoker.
Now is not that pretty outlook
for a young smoker who wants to do
business, earn living, and fill some
important position in the world?
The idea of young man, or boy,
muddling his head and making a
laundering fool of himself for the sake
of sucking poisonous, dirty little roll
of tobacco, opium, and other abomi
nations!
The Chinaman said, "Drink make
Chinaman number one fool" If that
is so, the cigarette iend ought to count
for number two.

ROW OVER ARCHITECT
Hoboken Commissioners of
Instruction Disagree About
Appointment.

The trouble among the Hoboken Com
missioners of Public instruction over the
appointment of a supervising architect
came to a head last night. None of the
~wrangling was visible at the meeting, but
when the Board went in caucus to de-
eide on the appointment the members had
a high old time. When the meeting was
called again and a vote taken Philip
Brummerhop received the appointment by
a vote of 4 to 8.
Brummerhop was the candidate of Com
missioner John Keresey and was opposed
by the other members of the Board for
political reasons, his friends say. The
office is a new one in Hoboken, being a
part of the reform the new Commission
ers are trying to effect in the organiza-
ton. A majority of the Board believe
that they are not competent to supervise
the repairs and other work done on
school buildings, and for that reason they
urged the appointment of a competent
architect for the purpose.
The office struck a few Of the Commits
sioners as being an unnecessary one.
This, in addition to the alleged political
sentiment in the matter started the row
which terminated last evening in the ap-
pointment.

TRENTON, June 20, 1S99.-Opinions were
read by the Court of Errors and Appeals
yesterday in the cases argued at the pres
ceding term. There was a large gather
ing Of lawyers present and several i'm
portant cases were decided.
Among these was the suit brought by
the Woodbury. Heights Co. against Con-
gresham HI. c. L~oudenslager, in which
the higher court reverses in part the find
ings of the Court of Chancery and de-
cides in favor of Congressman Louden-
Slayer. Under the decision of the Court
of Chancery Mr.. L~oudenslager was held
responsible for $40, 600 as the profits of
land sold to the company and which be-
longed originally to Joseph 3. Roe. Mr.,
Loudenslager was IN officer of the conn
pany, and it was claimed that he and
other members of the concern had de-
rived profits from the sale that right
fully belonged to the company. The de-
cision below directed that Mr.. Louden-
slayer should account for the full amount
while the Court of Errors holds that he
Is responsible only for half of the sum.
