caused by the mistake of another. Don't
vent on others the irritation caused by
your own mistakes. Don't vent your
irritation on anybody.

don't apply them at all.
The young woman with q suit case
says the New York Sum- has lately re-
ceived criticism in the newspapers as a
good bit of a nuisance. 1t is said of her
that she has no idea how to carry her
burden to keep it out of the way and that
| she swings through town. along the street
and in elevated and surface cars imped-
ing progress, banging other folks anat-
! omy and making herself rather generally
disliked.
The further charge is made against her
that her trail of discomfort is largely
| unnecessary; that she does not need the
big case to carry the satchelful of belong
ings which are alleged to rattle around
| in it.
1t is certainly true that the coat-case
| young woman is very much in evidence,
but it has not been suspected heretofore
that she was other than her own enemy.
| For the occasional times when her case
many more when it is packed to bursting
and is a much too heavy burden to be
undertaken by her.
Yet what, ask the girls-college girls
! and others-who appreciate the conve-
| nience of this luggage carrier, are we to
do about it? In point OF fact the suit
| case to women Is the same convenience
that 1t is to men. 1t is necessity of the
| present methods of transportation in a
! big city like New York.
| A girl comes down from college for
| dinner or a dance. Into this convenient
box with handles goes her gown for the
/ evening and it is carried by her directly
| to the place where she will dress. To
| trust it to an expressman from a Jersey
| City train to an uptown residence, or
| from Forty-second street station to Har-
lem or Brooklyn is risky for quick deliv-
cry. She knows, for she has tried 1t.
The girl going from town for a night
in the suburbs takes equally in her hands
the possibility Of not seeing her frock till
the next ray unless she has been very
| foreha nded in the sending off of the case.
Until cheap cabs for long distances and
| pneumatic tubes for shunting luggags
across the city in a few minutes ere a
fact the public will have to accept the
suitcase girl as the girl, alas! has now
to accept and carry the case.
The sign in the window said photo

II have no commission to give you 10
day" said the visitor, but just thought
ia drop in and find out what that notice
means"
The young woman at the desk, says the
New York Herald, stopped working for a
minute.
THAT sign" she said 'is something OF
a misnomer. 1t doesn't read exactly right.
It ought to be Photographs cleaned for
although I do a little repairing OCCASION
ally, such as pasting on corners ana
ending cracked noses, most of my work
is securing"
But what kind of photographs do you
clean?" asked the visitor.
ANY kind" said the young woman,
but my work is confined pretty closely
to old photographs or those that have
been soiled by constant use in decorstin g
a room In rs per cent. of the boarding and
lodging house rooms in this city the chief
decoration is the pictures of the friends
of the occupant BY the time these pho
tographs have done duty as art gallery
for year they are bound to look lit
tie the worse for wear. They will be
grimy with dust and sprinkled with spots.
Just now, too it is the fashion to trot out
all the d-fashioned photographs of your
have been dumped away out of sight and
out of mind for so many years.
IAN these old timers are sadly dilapd-
dated and while It Is not advisable TO
try to make them look like new, thus de-
stroying the unities OF time and costume.
1t is well to clean off the fly specks ond
other unsightly spotches before placing
them on view. I have made this removal
ton my trade. Not everybody with spot
ty relations has time to give them a
scrubbng, for 1t is a task that requires
considerable care and attention.
THAT is a great idea" said the visitor.
IT have a whole wall full of disfgured
relations at home. I believe III have you
come around and straighten them up. You
can at least clear their sallow complex
ions. That is" she added. III you don't
come too high. What are your prices,
may ask?'
'Soh." said the young woman, they
are regulated by the number of spots
charge all the way from ten cents to a
dollar a dozen"
