Call for Help From the Red Cross.

Clara Barton is pursuing with undying
energy her great work for the sick. She
has undertaken the task of getting q hos
pital for civilians established at Havana.
This is for the homeless and sick, and
would be haven to many far from home.
When we consider the suffering in Cuba,
from utter lack of care or a place to be
cared for in, surely we are ready to give
some assistance, be it ever so small.
In founding this hospital the Red Cross
Society is depending entirely upon the help
of the American people. They must not
find us lacking in the trust they put in us.
Some little thing can be done by everyone.
Besides funds there will be needed medi-
cines, delicate food for the sick, and whole
some strengthening TODD for the conva-
lescent (wOrk for some woman who knows
how to make the dainty, appetizing jellies).
Then clothing and bedding will be greatly
needed. In fact, there is work enough for
us all, and let us respond to Clara BartOn's
call. She says:
"The Red Cross is now establishing in
Cuba, at the request of the government, a
hospital service to assist in the care of the
sick and homeless people of the island, In
the Philippines, owing to the active opera
tions now being conducted by the American
army, and the approach of the rainy sea-
sen in the tropics, we are increasing the
hospital staff already there, assisting in the
care of the sick and wounded.
eff the generous people of your cOmmu-
nifty wish to take part in the work, and
if service rendered by the Red Cross during
the Spanish-American war has commended
itself to you, may ask that you will
kindly explain our present mission, and
ask their cooperation and support?
would also be glad to hear from you per-
sonally and to receive from you any sug-
gestion."
Surely the Red Cross service has been
above reproach, and we can best show our
gratitude by doing all in our power to help
this noble woman to fit up hospital and
thus care for the sick and suffering.
Secretary of War has said in his instruc-
tiOns to the War Department:
"You will give instructions to the officers
in command of United States transports
to offer every facility practicable for the
transportation on Government transports
to Cuba and return, of members of the
Red Cross, who come with proper creden-
tials from the society; also for the trans
portation by our transports of Red Cross
supplies for Cuba, where such transporta-
tion will not interfere with the best inter
ests of the service"

THE OLD STORY.

When the dew is all a-sparkllng,
In the meadow by the brook,
And young lovers gone a-larking
In some quiet, sheltered noOki
Then the moon is just a-laughing,
Az what fools these mortals be;
Still the young folks keep a-smacking,
Though the frogs creep out to see.
Now the crickets start a-chirping,
While the leaves all blink and smile,
And the brook goes on a-creeping,
Though he's looking all the while.
They have witnessed scores o woOings,
And they know they mustn't speak,
So the young things keep a-cooing
In the meadow by the creek.

Don't let yourself be put in such a posi-

have been thinking, my dear girls, if
could have a letter from you occasionally,
it would be such a help to me to know
about some of your thoughts. Tell me
your ambitions, your sorrows, in fact all
about yourselves Let me know what you
are reading and we can enjoy our talks on

know of girl who feels that she knows
nothing unless she has been to college.
That is a great mistake. While college
education is much desired, yet some of our
greatest writer's and thinkers never went
day to college. Must you remain ig-
norant because you can't get to college?
Not at all; you can read and you can see,
then make the most of your time and
study at home know one courageous girl
who greatly desires to be a writer, and she
has alread written some very good stories.
But she has not even been through high
school and cannot go because she has to
take care of her sick mother But with
true bravery she says in writing to me-:
81 will not give up. mean to make a
name for myself" l have no doubt she
will make it, She does not shun hard
work, and she is studying hard by herself.
j.
So many girls are fitting themselves for
some kind of work, and it is a plausible
idea. 1t is a terrible thing to think of
marrying just to be taken care of; it is
only form of slavery. But so many fields
of work are open to women now that some
thing can be found for all.
have often wondered why some girls
did not get together and make the work of
hired girl mean something. Lift it up to
its proper level Surely the girl who enters
home and does all the cooking is entitled
to much consideration. 1t is not so de-
grading a work, is it? Then give it its
proper place, and make it lofty calling.
All over the country cries are coming of
how few good girls can be found for house
work. They don't care how they do their
duties and seem to take no interest in the
family they are serving. Some day this
will be altered, and housework will be con-
sidered preferable to standing behind a
counter all day.
