Girls ms Isluckstnjths.

A webb of poetic romance always
has been woven about the Village
smithy," but 1t has remained for a
sturdy blacksmith in the ncighborhood
Of Leeds to introduce the daughters
Of the smithy into the romancer's
daughters, and has reared them all
by the side of the forge and anvil. At
present four are at work in his shop.
The other four welded the hammer
for several years and then left the
business to take up the duties of run
ming homes of their own. Every day
these four daughters Of the master
smith are to be seen at the anvils fol-
lowing the trade Of their fathers.
They are up early and spend the work.
ing hours in making gas hooks-broad,
bent nails which are used by plumb
ers for fastening gas pipes to walls.
1t is not such hard task, yet the
work requires great patience and en-
during strength.
The heavy part Of the work Is per-
formed by a machine worked with the
foot. After the mechanical device
has finished its labors the fair black
smiths, with sleeves rolled up, put the
finishing touches on the hooks with
hand-hammer and get them ready for
market. The girls are fond of their
work. They toll on piece-work
basis, and the ingenious blacksmith
calls each a full hand" Baltimore

design Of the most diminutive leaves

trelliswork all down the front Of the

trimmed with stripes formed by
embroidery and lace. The deep COL

with a smartly knotted tie of white

Lamp Boys of London.

Owing to the new acetyline lamps,
which appear today for the first time
on 1900 omnibuses, a certain group OF
street characters familiar to London
ers are lost from view These are the
agile lamp boys, posted at various
points along the principal routes over
which the omnibuses run. Their chief
duty consisted in clambering swiftly
up the bus and dextrously removing,
sometimes while the vehicle was in
motion, the old oil lamp, which IS TO
be happily seen no more in our midst.
The new acetylene lamp will require
no attention en- route, and for the con-
ductor to light UP it will only be
necessary for him to turn small
tap. Before the bus leaves the conf
pany's yard in the morning an official
places a cake of carbide of calcium in
a small slot beneath the lamp. and be-
yond filling a small tank with water

Canada's Septuauena.ians.

The census department has issued a
bulletin on ages, which shows that
there are 1927 more children under
five years in Quebec than i'll Ontario,
although the latter is one-third larger
in population than Quebec. Since 1871
there has been a remarkable decrease
IN the proportion of infants In Ontario
and Prince Edward Island, but, what
ever the cause of the decrease in the
number TO children may he, the census
commission remarks that it is obvious
" not a decrease in the number Of
married population. The provinces
showing the largest proportion over
10 years are Prince Edward Island,
Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and On
tario. Out of every thousand in Can
ade thirty people are over 10 years
of age and 294 are children up to 9
years. The largest proportion Of chill

Tho Rich nIan's Wite.

The man OF wealth marries woman
who is beautiful and gracious; one
who will bear his name proudly. Her
home is handsomely appointed. She
fits into her environment as a statue
in its niche. At her command are ser
wants, horses and carriages-or auto
mobiles, in this mechanical generation.
She is privileged to trade upon credit
and dress for her position in life.
But too often her pocketbook con-
tains less than the woman in moderate
circumstances, whose husband has a
salary and gives his wife stated sum
to live upon. The rich wife, if asked
by members of her club for a dona-
tion, must consult her husband first.
She has no ready money, and frequent
ly is obliged to ask him for paltry
amounts. She is humiliatcd and be-
comes embittered; her dignity is low
cred. Sometimes she employs deceit
with which to obtain resources from
him. And her thought Of her hus-
bands parsimony soon kills all her
tenderness.-Susan B. Anthony, in the

,stice To Stcn1noihera.

Mos, " oused in the public estima-
tion of all the members of human So
ciety is the stepmother. 1t is there
fore with a certain thrill of satisfac-
ton that we read in the daily chroni-
cles that in the slow evolutions Of
justice one stepmother at least has
been vindicated. She is not the terror
that tradition would have her to be;
she is not heartless; she is not cruel;
she is not selfish more than are most
mortals She is simply good, aver
age woman, doing her best as she sees
it. Such is the typical stepmother
whom novelists and other perversely
developed idiots have taught us never
theless to loathe.
In this case the stepmother had an
excellent opportunity to prove her.
self devoid Of narrow maternal preju'
dice. 1t was one Of those families
in which there are three brands OF
children, to use a common CONNER
cial term. On both sides it was a
second marriage. The husband had
his particular exclusive set Of children,
and his wife hers. Then there was
a set that jointly belonged to them
both. Now, to this meritorious step
mothers view, each Of the exclusive
sets was as ungovernable and as mis-
chievous as the other, and both with
equal viciousness pitched into the
third. The set that was joint property
had put out of joint. so to speak, the
noses of all the rest.
The stepmother of tradition would
have shielded her own exclusive
children. But this stepmother was the
real thing; hence the difference. She
found it intolerable that the youngest
set Of children should be the victims
of 10th the older sets, and she said
so, and declared that she herself was
at the mercy of the latter. The law
stepped in at her request, and 1t is to
be hoped that its Intervention will les
sen the hardship of her lot.
In many savage tribes the step
mother is held in superstitious rever-
cncc and fear, and yet the simple wife
has less liberty and more drudgery
than with other races. We, with our
civilized pretensc of chivalry, treat the
stepmother nearly always ungenerous-
ly. In most cases she has moro diff
cult duties 10 perform than a first wife,
ond If Is not at all certain that she
does not as often perform them well.
There have been stepmothers, and
there are many in the world, who were
or are among the sweetest, most pa
tient and most devoted of womankind.
Many a good man can look back and
trace his soundness of character and
his success in the world to a good
stepmother. Honor to her, we say
as much as to the other kind Of moth
er, where she deserves it.-Philadel-
phia Times.
