falling al9o to understand that they are
asking for dessert before they have even
tasted the soup. The girl who is in dead
earnest will, so to speak, lay aside all de-
sire for ease and at once accept any offered
assignment, going where she is sent doing
as sho is bidden, behaving precisely like a
soldier en- duty.
By degrees the young woman who is al
ways on time, whose work is clean and in
telligent, not slovenly and confused, and
who has an ear and an eye for wha ever
is interesting, will win her way. In these
days the news, foreign and domestic, is gath
cred according to organized system, and
the young reporter must rather write
charming and clever paragraphs about tao.
pie and incidents than be on the watch for
happenings outside her sphere of service.
The ability to paragraph well is not very
common and is often highly paid 1t is a
usual mistake to fancy that influence and
introductions largely aid a beginner. Abil-
ity and pluck are far more serviceable than
personal recommendations. l have seen ut
terly unknown young women from Maine
from Iowa, from Ohio, from Kentucky, who
came to New York and achieved success in
the newspaper world. They had the requi-
site perseverance and skill.
Undoubtedly womans charm of manner
helps her, not because she is a woman but
because charm and suavity count for much
with both men and women.
A woman needs a firm stock of health If
she is to be a journalist. For ehs may
have late hours and long ones, and she
must work hard and encounter every sort
of weather in the calendar. She must
possess common sense and dress properly
for her work. A short skirt, thick boots, a
trim small hat, a business dress as well
as business air, are requisites Of the news
paper womans outfit. Feathers and pic
ture hats and tags and fripperies are out
of place for her
She will do well to have speciality ii she
wishes to become known and trusted. There
are advantages in being identified with a
certain line, so that when the editor wants
clubs or conventions or woman's congresses
written up he can turn at once to a woman
who has the especial movement at her fin
gers end.

Packing trunks for living is not an
original idea with me-" said Miss Blanche
Minton, looking up from her seat on the floor
beside a huge Saratoga which she was busy
filling.
"Of course the incentive was the necessity
OF making some money, and I was casting
about in my mind how to begin, when [
read a newspaper article about a girl who
earned good living as a brides assist
ant One OF her duties was packing the
trunks and her method was such good one
that l thought what fine thing it would
be IL everybody would pack as she did. Then
/ remembered how the majority OF people
disliked to pack, and in some way my
thoughts Travelled to the people in a paIatial
hotel just down the street from where | was

reading the article about the brides assist
ant l had decided as to a profession.
Having made up my mind l at once set
out to offer my services to the manager Of
the hotel. told him my plans about pack
Ing trunks for guests of the hotel and
asked him to recommend me. He advised
me to have some cards engraved, stating
my terms, and said he would see that they
were kept in the Office and distributed among
guests who would most probably need my
services.
ITO make long story short, followed
the managers advice and in less than an
hour after having my cards in the office a
bell boy from the hotel called at my board
ing house and gave me my first order for
packing the trunks of party who had been
called away Unexpectedly They hadn't time
to wait, 1t seems, and left, directing to have
their trunks sent after them. There were
seven in all, huge affairs, and 1t took me
the entire afternoon to pack them and

Their Real Capital.

Manila, April 26.-Aguinaldo's
army today is defending Calum-
pit energetically, which is said
to indicate that the rebels are
finally making that place their
last ditch or stand, which Ameri-
cans expected them to make at
Malolos.
The Filipinos are employing
artillery. They brought out two
guns into action in the trenches
today before Calumpit, firing
shrapnel, which burst over the
heads Of General Wheaton's men
without effect.
The fight was resumed at 6
o'clock this morning. During
the night the American engineers
repaired the Bagbag bridge, thus
enabling our troops to cross the
river. General Wheaton's brig
ade advanced in extended order
with the Kansas regiment to the
west of the railroad and the Mon
tana regiment to the east of it,
and took up position covering
one and half miles on the south
bank of Rio Grande. On the

political authorities, all discern
in this new departure Of the
United States from its traditional
policy that its future status will
be as great military power;
either this or the instant aban-
donment of the expansion pro
jects. The English statesmen
and the English press are quite
right in styling our new policy
an imperial" policy. 1t can be
nothing else but that. 1t is no
marvel the president is sick in
mind, when his dyes are opened
to the consequences of the career
upon which he has embarked the
republic-a permanent standing
army of large proportions, con.
slant drain upon the revenues of
the country, the never ending
slaughter of our brave soldiers to
maintain a semblance of authori.
ty in the immediate vicinity of
the coast of IA few islands.
Unless the Filipinos are paci-
fled we might employ every ship
in the navy and be entirely un-
able to maintain more than a
paper blockade. Whether thev
have money or not, they will
never have any trouble in secur-
ing all the supplies, warlike or
otherwise, which they may wish.
The continental nations of Europe
so anxious to block our game,
will see to that. There is much
talk just now over what are al
legged to be the indiscreet utter
ances of Captain Coghlan. They
may be indiscreet, but they are
literally true, except that they
go very little toward ceiling the
whole story. This country would
be set aflame did it know all that
is hidden in the official breast in
Washington, and which. if whis-
pers under the breath may be
taken into account, will be div
ulged in due time.

quired.
Baltimore Sun.

ashlngton, ID. g., April "a.
All callers at the white house
today were informed that the
president was indisposed and was
compelled to deny himself to Wis
itors. White house officials in a
quiet way intimated that the
president had an attack of neur-
algia IN the face, but would he all
right in day or two. The presi.
dent, it is believed, did take cold
in his teeth on Friday last, while
on the Potomac river. But it
was not the ply sical ailment al
together which disincllned him
today to give audience to general
callers.
1t may be sought to produce a
contrary impression, but it is alb
solutely correct that the president
is very much depressed by the
situation in the Philippines. Not
only this, but the contemplation
of the other complications which
will, it is now seen, eventually
grow out of our expansion policy
is more than sufficient to produce
disquiet and apprehension in the
mind of the man who is respon-
sible for the conditions which ex-
ist and responsible for the salts
factory determination of the
same.
1t needs no prophet to forecast
that sooner or later the president
will have no alternative but to
call for the volunteers provided
for in the act of congress. 1t has
been several times semi. officially
announced there would be no
necessity for this. There will be,
if we are to hold on to the Phil
ippines, and constantly the ans
wer to all arguments by the op-
position is that we can not afford
to let 90. "A very high govern
ment official said tonight: 1--WE
must hold on. even shouldn't take
half a million of men," The
cost in money he did not consider
worth while to discuss.
While denying himself to out.
siders the President was not too
busy today to see several mem
bers of the cabinet, including the
secretary of war, with whom he
talked long over the news from
the East. The president is bit
terly disappointed at the pro-
tracted and stubborn resistance
which the army is meeting in the
Philippines. He truly had not
the least idea of such a thing
when he concluded to insist upon
the cession of the islands. Now
such a vision of immensity opens
up that it may we'll trouble his
waking ana his sleeping hours.
The treasure to be dropped from
the Golfers of this country in this
far. off land is a consideration
quite serious enough Of itself,
when compared with the prob
able equivalent. Far more than
this, infinitely more, are the
daily lives offered up as daily
sacrifice with the most insignifi-
cant results.
