place, talked and explained until she
got people interested in her project
The Normal Training school offered to
the schoolhouse.
Mrs. Mitchell then gave up her office,
fitting it out with the necessary appa-
ratus and converting it into school
room. She reserved one little corner
for her desk, where twice a week she
holds her office hour. Each day from
until / o'clock twenty little tots from
the neighborhood go to the school,
where two young training school girls
act as teachers. Then in this same lit
tie school on Massachusetts avenue and
Lansdowne street there are weekly
classes of reading and sewing for the
girls and a gymnasium for the boys.
Then Mrs. Mitchell by a special effort
succeeded in making the school a
branch of the public library, so that the
whole neighborhood has free and easy
access to good reading.
Speaking of her business, Mrs.
Mitchell said: Il collect my rents per-
sonally because l can see the condition
of the homes and offer suggestions.
In trying to better the conditions Of a
neighborhood l may be doing a char
liable work in way, but l am also
teaching the tenants to keep the houses
in better order, and less repairs are
needed"
Mrs. Mitchell personally attends to
all the repairs and work done by the
carpenters, plumbers and gas workers,
painters and paper hangers Some
times she says she is obliged to work
about twelve or fourteen hours each
day.
Until last fall she conducted her
work under the name of e. III. Will

The Word "Wife.o

What do you think the beautiful
word wife" comes from? The great
value of the Saxon words is that they
mean something. Wife means "weav-
err" You must either be housewives
or house moths, remember that. In the
deep sense, you must either weave
mems fortunes and embroider them or
feed upon and bring them to decay.
Wherever a true wife comes, home is
always around her. The stars may be
over her head, the glowworm in the
nights cold grass may be at the fire at
her feet, but home is where she is, and
for noble woman it stretches far
around her, better than houses ceiled
with cedar, shedding its quiet life for
those who else are homeless. This,
believe, is woman's true place and pow
er.-Ruskin.

While great fortunes and great in
dustries have almost invariably been
created by uneducated men, parvenus
unembarrassed with learning, who
taught themselves what they found
necessary to know, we find, on the 9th
er hand. that those men who have made
commercial science, political economy,
their study have not shown any sue
cess in business and have remained
theorists. Most political economists
have had to live on their pen. Mr.. Cob
den went bankrupt In business. 1t is
true that Ricardo was well off, but he
was a stockbroker by trade, and with
him political economy was only hob
by, not a serious result. 1t is strange
how few business men of the first rank
have a good word to say of political
economy Century.

his last visit the patient said: Here,
doctor, is purse in which l have put
every days fee. You must not let

ject the purse, but the chink Of the gold

soon disappeared and his people rejoced
when he declared that he had been
made as well and strong as ever.
Father John recommended the med.
cine to his parshioners and friends,
and thousands were made well and
strong by taking it. In getting this
prescription they always called for
Father Johns Medicine" and so it
was named by thespeople, and adver,

tion of Reverend Father O'Brien be-
cause he knew of its merit and de-
sired that all who were aiing might
benefit by its'power to cure.
This oldfashioned, wholesome reme-
dy is unequalled as body builder and
tonic. 1t restores health and strength
to all run down systems. Its gentle
laxative effect strengthens the stomach
and corrects the digestion. 1t drives
out all impurities. 1t is food med
icine and contains only pure noursh-
ment. 1t is not a patent medicine, and
1t is free from opium, morphine or poi
sonous drugs in any form, which are
found in the majority of patent prep
arations.
While it is not cough syrup" or
"balsam," nothing equals this pre-
scription for coughs, colds, bronchitis,
asthma, consumption, and all throat
and lung troubles. 1t has a most
soothing and healing effect, and at the
same time builds up the body and
makes strength.
