A Concise Charge.

During the Reconstruction Period" a colored gentleman was elected a Justice of the Peace in the backwoods of South Carolina. His first case happened to be one in which the defendant asked for trial by jury. When the testimony was in and the arguments had been concluded, the lawyers waited for the Judge to proceed with his instructions to the jury. The Judge. seemed somewhat embarrassed Finally one of the lawyers whispered to him and told him that 1t was time for him to charge the jury. Looking warily at the jury, with grim judicial air. the Judge said:
 "Gentlemen uv de jury, sence dis is a very small case, I'll jes' charge y'an a dcIlar an a haf apiece. "-Silas Xavier Floyd, in April Lippincotts.

cess and prestige, we get our desire, if on the other hand we choose silent homes, and labor, we meet the reward that such calm Industry surely brings. But another word must be said in extenuation of the Southern woman. If she works South she works of nec- essity where money Is scarce, where pay days are to a certain extent uncer~
 tain. where--well. all workers know the story.
 Tn New York the pay, and the promptness of the pay seem 10 the pew l learner fabulous,
 I know a reporter, and her name Is unknown save to the workers on sew erai papers; a mere repofter, you might call her, who gets for her work exact Iy $70 per week. Friday Is newspaper pay day, If you please, and all Is fixed and sure as the North Star. A word about the hours of work here--elevon l to three is the usual thing. Think. 1T you please, of our sun to sun laboring day! This special reporter takes twelve weeks holiday in summer, spends the time abroad and her pay goes on while she rests and recruits, and gathers strength for the fray. Is 1t any wOn- der that this woman works with zest' 1 ioy and utmost faithfulness? This sptr- 1t of doing worthful work and getting the worth of it runs through every branch of labor here. I know stem ographer who worked faithfully until she fell ill. Her salary went on dur ing her illness. She was sent at the expense Of the house for which she | worked to a health resort her mother with her as sick nurse and companion. The house knew that her work was worthful and they gladly gave her the worth of her labors. Is 1t any wonder that these women forego social pleas ures, refuse invitations to social func- tions and rejoice in their laborY The surprise of our Southern women who have newly ventured up here at the pay accorded them, when they are 1 fortunate enough to get the start, would be Imaginable If 1t was not at the same time so pitiable.
 One woman was talking to a friend of wanting regular work: Tt doesn't mat ter to me what get" said the Southern woman, "so that 1t just covers my living

The Wooing of President is a stir ring story in the May number of the Club Woman. It deals with the love affair of a popular club woman, and shows that clubs may come, and clubs may go. but the eternal feminine" may still be wooed. but whether she may be won, we shall have to wait until the June number to find out "Eleanor's Model" Is bright story with an unusual theme. and Mary Elizabeth's Kitten" will please the children.
 The club news is necessarily exhaus- tive as this is the biennial number, and in Megaphonics on Leadership" the editor drives home some truths with the force and directness of a we'll aimed Gatling. Mrs. Bertha Hirsch Baruch contributes an article on Personal Ser vice the Practical Basis of Successful Organization" Mrs. Robert J. Burdette's Remnants" are always well selected. and Mrs. Oreola W.

 In the Fisher Maiden" we get a whiff of the long delayed spring-time. and in fact the entire number is suggestive of the coy maiden who seems to come to us so reluctantly this frigid year.
 These with the well selected Pot au Fey" and some poetry quite above the ordinary magazine novel, makes up very readable and attractive number in which the club woman maintains the splendid standard of excellence that form CT numbers have led one to expect.
