Charitable Brutality.

Frances Hodgeson Burnett was Wis
iting in New England city, and her
hostess, who did much home. missionary
work, volunteered to take her to a
home which was a shining example of
what might be done on slender in
come by woman who knew what good
management meant. She led the way
to a wretched neighborhood. They
stopped at tiny tenement, which even
outdoors showed the radiance Of clean
illness. Mrs. Burnett's guide did not
stop to knock she walked in and led
her guest unceremoniously through the
few tidy, spotless rooms till they came
to kitchen, where woman stood
over a steaming washtub.
"This is one of the few model homes
of the poor" explained the dispenser
of charity ; "the husband earns only
81 week. His wife makes few ex-
ira dollars by washing, and there are
five children to bring up on such an
income. l discovered them in the
dead of winter, when work was not to
be found, nearly starving and frozen.
This class would almost rather die
than take charity" Mrs Burnett says
as long as she lives she can never for
get the flush of shame and helpless
misery which redeemed the face of the
mistress of that humble tenement,
Such an incident emphasizes the need
OF human sympathy and fine feelings
in the woman who dispenses public
charity.

The man who made the announcement of |the attraction declared that the mum |my was unearthed in Northern Ell |rope, and had been critically exam lined and pronounced genuine by the scientists at the Smithsonian Insti- tuition at Washington. Last night quite number of people visited the tent and paid their dimes for looking upon the mummy of prehistoric race. Late last night a lot of bovs determined to settle the question of it's genulneness to their own satis- faction, at least, and stole the man out of the tent. After an examina- ton that proved the giant was noth. ing more than a cows skin fixed upon frame and stuffed with straw saWdust and excelsior, they lynched the gentleman of Tuetonic origin and scientific indorsement by hanging him by the neck in front of a dry goods store.

mistaken idea of many advertis- CTS is, what the word "economy"real. ly means It does not mean stinginess the saving by not spending monev It does not refer to the amour. of money expended at all. It refers rath- er to how the money is spent. The man who spends one hundred thous and dollars can be as economical ae the man spending one hundred dol. lars. Economy means good manape. ment
 Eeonomy can be carried to the ex. treme. Frequently it's the case Wa seems to be economy is little short nj extraVagance. The story of the man Who laid the basis of his wealth to the principle that prompted him to DICK up every pin he saw on the street, has gained wide publicity The purpose of this story is to con fey the moral that riches can be at. tanned by paying attention to small things.
