New York Tribune
Few realize the heroic struggles of an
impecunious woman of good social posi-
ton whose life is one long effort to make
both ends meet Working day after day
to keep up the forms of civilized life. which
she alone deems of such vital Importance
against the opposition of her family, who
declare them to be of no use whatever
why" asks her husband, should she
harass the one servant in their fiat by
making her put on a white apron to serve
dinner? Why should the children not
jump up and help themselves? What is
the use of having the plates changed? 1t
is absurd to put on 'frills' when there is
nothing TO back Ii. A man who is poor will
naturally sink into the habits of the work
ing class, but woman who has once been
used TO live conventionally will cling to her
traditions to her dying day. 1t is for her
children that she struggles-ungrateful lit
tie things-who would far rather be al
lowed their liberty and who fret against
the regulations. But in after years they
appreciate the wisdom of it all. For she
is quite right, the habits that bespeak
good breeding should not be relinquished
in trouble. They are an inheritance from
our fOrebears that must be preserved for
our children. and il is no ignoble life, that
of a poor. broken-dOwn gentlewoman who
struggles after gentility.

HOMES FOR ORPHANS.
state Board of Charities Has Many
Children Cared For.

That there is desire among people of
satisfactory character in Indiana TO re-
ceive dependent children in their homes is
made evident by the fact that the Board of
State Charities receives more than one APP
plication daily for child. The work or
placing dependent children in good homes,
where they may be brought up in manner
more satisfactory than even good state
institution could provide, has been very
successful since Amos w. Butler became
secretary of the board. 1t is Mr.. Buffers
policy that wherever possible a child should
be taken from an orphans home and placed
in a good private home.
Yesterday the State Board issued a bulletin
showing that it has now 1876 dependent
children under its supervision. During the
past quarter, In addition TO placing and re-
placing in excellent families ninety-one
children, Ais children in such homes were
visited The law regarding the care of de-
pendent children makes ii the duty of or
phan asylums to find homes for children
in good families and TO visit them al least
once a year In It's bulletin the State Board
suggests that ii is well for county officers
to insist upon active efforts on the part of
all orphans' homes

HOW TO AVOID STRIKES.



General Manager Schaff and Superintend-
ent Van Wrinkle, of the Big -Four, and
committee of engineers representing the
engineers on the entire system were in con-
ference all day yesterday discussing a wage
schedule the engineers submitted to the
officials. A settlement will be effected this
morning. To-day the conductors will have
their inning with the road officials and fix
up the schedule they have prepared. 1t is
customary for the engineers and conductors
to prepare a schedule whenever they think
they want something, submit it TO the off,
GERS and settle the matter in conference.
The employees take the initiative in max
ing demands, and the officials seek a COM
promise. They agree after a certain amount
of convincing argument from both sides,
sign up the schedule. go to work and that
is the last of it until something new takes
place. Then the same process is repeated.
superintendent Van Wrinkle said last
night that they would have trouble in
making a settlement None of us is pre-
pared to talk" said he, land nothing will
be given out until we agree. We don't have
any trouble and are not looking for a
scrap. We get together and argue il out.
Sometimes they wrong in certain things,
and sometimes we are wrong in certain
things. 1t does both of us good to get to-
gether. We learn more about each other,
learn to understand each other and learn
how TO settle differences amicably."
