The Pay of House Servants.

"The domestic problem has many
phases" said a woman well known in
philanthropic work to Tribune re-
porter a day or two ago. Il dropped in
for luncheon yesterday at the hotel
where my favorite club meets and
CHANGED to find several other members
there, so we had an impromptu and UNI
official meeting. The subject of the
Housemaids' union, just organized in
Chicago, came up, and one said that if
the same demands should be enforced
here she would have to board.
''Yet it is not unreasonable, the phi
lanthropist continued, ito insist that
housekeepers should pay So week for
a day of eight hours. The two after
moons a week that they demand are
not so easy matter perhaps.
at seems to me that there is gen
eral misunderstanding among the wo-
men in service as to the pay they are
really receiving. Ninety-nine in every
hundred estimate only the actual mon
ey they receive, quite overlooking the
fact that they could not possibly get
board and lodging for less than 50 a
week That, with a So wage, gives
them $S week, which is more than
the average factory worker or sales
woman receives. | am becoming lit
tie tired of the philanthropic craze for
turning all poor girls into milliners and
dressmakers. 1t would be much more
to the purpose if more were encouraged
to become good housemaids and taught
to regard their employers as having
some rights they should respect One
would think from the lectures that she
is constantly receiving that the average
housekeeper is a hard hearted tyrant.
In my experience quite the reverse is
uue."-New York Tribune.

Fonnd Homes For 2.ooo chi1dren.

Found Homes For 1000 Children.
ooh, Mrs, Blank" cried a young
housemaid to her mistress, 'two little
ladies want to see you! They came in
a carriage, and they look as if they
were ready to go up to heayenw
The little ladies thus pictured were
che Misses Goddard of Boston, two
women of large means and devoted
lives. One of them, whom Theodore
Parker used to call ST. Matilda, died
recently, leaving her fortune, as she
had used her income, for the help of
others. Naturally at this time many
anecdotes are being told of her good
deeds, among them being the assertion
that Miss Matilda found homes for
more than 1000 children.
Generally the Misses Goddard "came
in carriage" because they needed one.
Always it was filled to overlooking
with bundles of household goods they
had purchased at fairs, patchwork
quilts and braided rugs they had bought
of women in old ladies' homes and
clothing that well to do friends had
sent from overstocked wardrobes.
One room in their house was used to
receive such articles, which the sisters
looked over, deciding who needed this
and who needed that. Then they per-
sonally distributed the goods. They
had 600 poor persons on their lists, and
once when asked to dispose of the con-
tents of four story house belonging
to a friend who had died it proved that
they knew places to which they could
send everything in it.
1t is said that the Misses Goddard
never went out Of town in the summer
but once. A baby had fallen into Miss
Matilda's hands that was so feeble she
resolved to keep and care for it herself.
The doctor thought country air might
save it, and into the country the little
family went, the only vacation the sis
ters ever took.-Woman's Journal.

At her second ball of the winter (the

such a remark" exclaimed matron

yet what an advantage it would be to
a girl if some kindly disposed person
would enable her to see herself as 9th

'She would not be able to bear the

as for the man, she would never speak

Impressions of the world at large. A
girl at home and abroad is apt to be en-

how many people haze unconsciOusly
distinct company manners and how
much nicer they are when they forget
their self consciousness and are their
own natural everyday selves? Here is
that pretty little Mrs. u. At home
among her own people she is simple
and kindly and very attractive, but the
moment a stranger appears she poses
unconsciously for effect, We who know
and like her believe it to be only an in

generality OF people call her extremely

In addition to the dairy, which sup
plies it's immense creamery, Mrs. Sher-
man has a large number of thorough
bred horses and a big herd of fine
Berkshire swine. Among the lessons
which Mrs. Sherman learned by a sad
experience was the fact that the beau

fields of alfalfa in a warm, dry valley.
These have been replaced by the stur-

A pretty girl wearing a taffeta dust
cloak took a fountain pen from one Of
the pockets thereof, tested the nib and
wrote her name on the hotel register in
a firm hand.
Room and bath, please" she said
smilingly. Not above the third floor"
Then she walked off leisurely esd
gracefully toward the elevator. while
two boys Wed with each other in their
efforts to carry her bags, umbrella and
golf sticks.
Wouldn't that make you think 2"
said the old hotel man. Twenty five
years ago a woman never registered
herself and never came near hotel
desk. She always made her arrange
ments through boy or a clerk. First
she went to the ladies' parlor and gave
a man her name on a card, and he came
back and took her to a room. In one of
the old Philadelphia hotels they had a
little panel window opening from the
hotel office through the wall of the
ladies' parlor in order to save her the
trouble of writing her name.
I'm those days the woman hotel guest
always paid her bills by boy or her
maid, but nowadays women think moth
ing Of coming up to the desk and ask
ing for room or bill, as the case
may be. :. I don't know but what like
the new way best The old plan SEEM
ed to infer that hotel Office was an
Objectionable place for ladies to visit.

women travelling nowadays look pref
