A gay and festive youth who is en-
ployed as clerk in the Pennsylvania
railroad Office had occasion to go down
to Wilmington one evening last week,
and while there he met a girl who i'm
pressed him as being worthy Of culti-
walton, says the Philadelphia Record.
He asked II he might call. and was a.
sured that he would be welcome. II
live In Newcastle" she said. But
where in Newcastle?" he insisted.
"Oh, anybody can direct you," she re-
piled. I'VE live in a great big stone
house-the largest house In the town."
He was forced to be satisfied with
that. On Sunday he took run down
to Newcastle. and when he inquired
where the young woman lived the big
jail was pointed out to him. That's
whore she lives" said one of the town
boys. Her fathers one Of the jail
ers." The young man took the next
train back.

PANACEA FOR PovERTY.s ILLS.
sure Cure for Mendlcancy Discovered by
Charity Aren't

One Of the agents of Chicago's great
est charitable organization has found
a specific remedy for the starvation
and the suffering of the poor in winter.
The directing heads OF the erganiza-
ton have such keen sense of the
humorous that they have forwarded
the report Of their agent, in which his
remedy was set forth, to the people
who had requested that certain case
be investigated. Some North Side wo-
men became interested IN the case OF
q man who, In the face of Ill health
and with the handicap of a largo and
growing family of children. was strug
Cling to make a livelihood. The wo-
men put their hands to their purses
and aided in that way, but that was
not what the man wanted. He wanted
work indoors SO that he could keep his
health and not be laid up every week
or two as the result OF exposure. He
was a peddler, and by toiling from
the rising to the setting Of the sun he
managed to earn a few cents profit.
There was never on any day Of the
year enough OF margin to give the
family three satisfying meals. The
children's clothes were ragged and
there was scant covering at night, not
outstanding the constant toiling OF
the father. The interested women ap-
pealed to the charitable organizations
to try to secure inside work for the
worthy man that would pay enough to
give adequate. food and shelter to his
family. An agent was dispatched to
look up the case. His report was turn
ed in and was sent last week to the
charitable North Side women. 1t con-
tsined this comment and this recipe
for the removal Of the poverty Ills Of
the peddler. Il have seen Mr.. O'Hooli-

FASHIONS PARAsoLs.


Some of the Latest Tsncies In Seasons
funshAdes.
II the woman who uses q parasol
would be particularly far in advance
Of her feminine rivals this summer
she will buy herself the very latest
creation in parasol ingenuity, the sun
shade with square edges. 1t is not .
thing Of beauty, perhaps, but at least
It IL strikingly odd and to be odd is
at least to be Noticed. The square
parasol is covered with bandana
handkerchief in the gaudiest pattern
cbtainable and the effect is certainly
bizarre and unusual. The newest
handles for the seasons parasols are
club shaped. and some Of them are
adorned with punches of flowers and
fruit. Among the elaborate handles
wooden ones are seen mounted In gold
and silver and set with real or imita-
ton Jewels. Ivory. coral, and lapis
lazuli are also cut up into the parasol
handles. Parasols for morning SER

material. SILK 10. Of course the rule.
For carriage use q white satin sun
shade 10 always desirable requisition
and II may be beautined by lace but
tsrfies and flowers appliqued upon the
satin. One OF the fancy shades shows
parasol formed Of stitched bands OF
white taiReta put together with strips
Of insertion and hsmstitchiug. Chica-
