the shops. { home she keeps a list con-
tanning the names and addresses Of thous-
ands Of people, mostly artists and society
people, who collect objects Of some kind.
Whenever she discovers anything Of value
on her rounds she selects a number Of
names on her list. whose owners she thinks
will be interested in the find and informs
them Of Il. The person who secures the
treasure gladly pays her for the informa-
tion, her charge being according to the
worth Of the article. often she is asked
to purchase the article for the collector,
and then she charges a little more. Cen
orally, curios bought in these shops can
be obtained for far less than the ordinary
dealer in such things would ask. For the
secondhand dealers are mostly ignorant Of
their value as antiques, and rate them ac-
cording to their utilitarian value only. They
will invariably ask five times what they
expect to get. and almost as surely will
end by accepting any price that is offered.
Besides p~rohting from the objects Of real
value which she finds, this curio hunter
has constant commissions from those who
know Of her, to pick up objects quaint and
curious-brass candlesticks. odd lamps,
coins, etc.-whenever she can get them for
trifing cost. And these little things add
largely to her income. Pawn shops are
another profitable field for her. The keep

Some women who find themselves unex-
~pectedly obliged to support themselves,
and yet entirely unframed in any kline Of
work Of the sort undertaken by the New
York women, may be able to follow the
example Of a clever Boston woman who
was placed in just such a predicament a
few months ago, and who, nevertheless, is
now making an income which, while by no
means princely, is sufficient for her needs.
Her work is one which entails almost no
mental strain OF worry. It is simply sup
plying business firms with stamps, stamped
envelopes, postal cards, etc.
All places Of business send to the post
office for a supply of these necessities at
least once a week. Often 1t is -inconvenient
for them TO do so, especially when no boy
is employed to run errands of the kind,
and the time of a clerk must be taken.
In working up her trade the Boston
woman went from office to ONCE in the bust
ness section of the city, offering to bring
any specified number of stamps, ETC., reg
ularly each week for the consideration Of
a small percentage on the amount bought.
She received a number Of orders at once,
especially from small hrms-architects,
q NAe ~ "ASA AhNAE HNA ~
employed Many larger firms we're also
willing to patronize her merely to relieve
themselves Of the bother OF sending out
their boys with the necessary money each
week. Some firms could give only a gen.
eral idea Of what they would need, but hav-
ing ascertained about what patronage she
may expect, she lays in a generous surplus
of stock each week, knowing that nothing
will be wasted In the end.
Each Monday morning she purchases her
supplies for the entire week, and every day
she takes a different route, so that all her
time is fully occupied. At the ofices she
is paid in cash at once for what she leaves,
plus the small percentage which she
charges for her trouble. In each case her
profit is ineonsiderable but as she often
serves q large number Of ofioes In one
building, and as she works in only one
neighborhood on each trip, little time is
lost in going from place to place, and she
manages to reach a great many customers
In a day.

seemed to present to their minds the only
ways In which they might turn their knowl-

was extremely interesting to learn. quite
recently that q woman IN New York CITY

pressed me anew with the truth OF the an
eient axiom that what we all need in this
world Is not more opportunities, but the
ability to make use OF those we have.
In every great city there are thousands
or people who collect antiques OF some sort
OF other-coins. prints. furniture, candle
sticks china and so on without end. And
In every large city also there are many lit
tie second hand shops into which every now
and then veritable treasures OF every kind
mud their way. The most fruitful Of these
shops are not known to the curio collector
generally. They are hidden up dark ALLEYS
ana In the dark Easements beneath tene-
ment buildings, and scattered up and down
all over the east and west sides, wherever
humble homes and poverty hold sway. It
taxes quite a little courage to venture into
some OF them. Their stoek-in-trade is not
catalogued and neatly arranged upon shelves
as In the well known shops OF the kind. but

Testimonial to One Who saved n Life
at Atlantic city.

That there is trouble, grief, eowardice
and w~ickedness in the world the newspaper
of any day abundantly attests. But the
modern newspaper faithfully reflects all
human traits and experiences, and those
who believe that men and women are still
prompted by the impulses that have made
history luminous with p~raiseworthy deeds
can find ample justification for their OPP
timism in current events.

phia Ledger. They are frequently in evil
dence, and 1t must be remembered, as Rob

Admirals," hat many a brave action must
be expected to be performed without wit
nesses for one that comes to notice.
We speak now OF the courage OF women.
Last Sunday. in Bethany church, Philadel-
phia. Miss LOUISE Stifel, a member OF the
congregation, was presented with a purse
filled with gold in substantial recognition
of the timely courage exhibited by her in
r~escuing a boy from drowning AZ Atlantic
City on August II. The address OF pre-
sentation was made by Mr.. John Wanna
maker, and the interesting incident was
witnessed by a large audience. Fearless
ness of this kind is usually associated with
the stronger sex. yet numerous instances
are on record in which American women
have exhibited undaunted bravery In the

Utah has no capitol building. Vir-

1t is estimated that the State capt.

The State Capitol building of Tex
as, at Austin, is a very elaborate af-
fair, being, in addition to its orna-
mental character, both useful and
businesslike as well. It is tireproof,
lighted by electricity and steamboat
ed, and is not only the largest State
capitol. but has accommodations for
all the State and some of the judicial
offices in Austin. 1t represents a to-

State as representing 100000.
