JUVENILE GAMBLERS.
Factory Girls of Tender Years Who
 Play the Races Regularly.

Any morning in Chicago or New York one may see girls of 16 and 17 with their heads close together over q newspaper tabulation, trying to fig ure out ''winners" during their street car or elevated road ride to the fac tories and offices where they are em- ployed. Listen to them and you will hear the language of the track. They know the relative regulations of the jockeys, and can talk glibly of their viding weights and of their seats in the saddle. They know the horses and their supposed liking for track, weight and distance. They are ready for handbook plucking.
 Meet them on the way home and you will hear them say sadly that luck" had not been with them that d'y, and will see them tear up their tickets and throw them away. Only one thing is worse for these girls than losing, and that is winning. Losses may bring a tardy, dejected reform. Winnings lead to the frenzy of daily trips to the race course themselves; to the purring of all wild emotions; to the plunge into the black, engulfing chasm where life is the least of the things lost.
 Observation viii snow that boys take their first gambling lesson earlier than girls. If they have sucked the poison, they will be hardened gam. blers when not half way through their teens. The idea of working for liv- ing is lost as soon as the fever of chance is in their blood. In pool rooms, on race trains, at the tracks, the majority of regulars" are young in years, though old in everything else.
 But though their schooling is sooner acquired than that of the girls, it is begun at the same place-the hand book kindergarten, and the instructor is the same-the newspaper dope sheet."-World Today.

His Kind of People.

Joel Chandler Harris recently told friends of the experience of an old Southern darky who went to Philadel- phia, where, he thought, he might better his fortune.
 After a week of walking up and down the old chap found himself forced to solicit charity. This he did by going from house to house.
 "Ef you please" he would begin, when his ring had been answered, give a po' cullud man some work to do or sumthin' to eat"
 The reply was invariably: "Very sorry, but we have nothing for you"
 Finally the old man rang the bell of looking house, and man, evidently the master thereof, came to the door.
 "Boss," appealed the aged darky, "I'se starvin' can't yo' give me some vittles?"
 At this the man at the door gave evidence of great rage. You darn black, kinky-haired rascalw shouted he. "How dare you ring the bell at my front door? Go iH at the back and .he cook will give you something, you dingy-faced-"
 But here the old darky interrupted the man by falling on his knees and exclaiming in heartfelt tones:
 "Thank Gawd, I'se foun' my own people at last! Thank Gawd, I done foun' my own white folks"-Phila- delphia Ledger.

Superiority of New York Shirt Waist
 Over Boston Shopping Bag.
 The New York girl was about to go shopping with her Boston cousin. "What do you carry that thing for?" she asked, in not too respectful tone, as she glanced at the cousins Boston bag.
 The cousin gave little start of shocked surprise, and said, with re. proachful look through her glasses: "Why. intend to deposit my pur- chases in my bag. 1 always take it with me-"
 This last was almost tone of awe, but the New York girl only muttered: "Thats right; you do."
 How do you dispose of your small parcels?" asked the Boston girl
 You'll see," was the answer as they scrambled off the elevated.
 When they reached home after a weary eight-hour day the shopper from the Hub had been thoroughly initiated into the New York method of slowing away dry goods of small bulk. It seemed incredible, but w..h her own eyes she saw her cousin draw forth from the voluminors front of her shirt waist:
 Two pairs of gloves.
 Two pairs of stockings.
 Four yards of chiffon yelling
 Several turnover collars.
 A remnant of wash silk.
 Half dozen handk6rchiefs.
 One bunch of bargain ribbons.
 One package of hairpms.
 One box of nail polish.
 One pompon.
 One made-up-free-of-charge bow,
 Five skeins of embroidery silk.
 Cord for sofa pillow.
 "I should think that you would fee. like a shoplifter or an ostrich," said the Boston girl.
 Beats the Boston bag to death," said the New York girl.-New York Sun.

DOCTORS AND LAWYERS FEES.
The Former Is Small in Comparison to
 the Latter's Dues.

The late James A. McComb, of Dobbs Ferry, left an estate valued at something like $30,o00,000. Among the bills filed against the estate was one of $4,000 presented by doctor, who it is said, gave up all other prac- tice and attended Mr. McComb con stantly during the last month of his illness. Surrogate Silkman is reported to have said from the bench: If the physician charged $4,000 for one month it was wicked"
 This recalls a conversation l recent ly had with one of the most eminent physicians in New York. He had just come from one of the large hospitals, where he had spent the entire after noon operating on charity cases.
 'How much time do you give to that sort of practice?' I asked. l
 Just one-half of every day in the week" was his answer.
 Do you get any pay for it.?
 Not a penny"
 But you are an exception in your profession, are you not?"
 "No there are hundreds of doctors in New York who devote half their time to charity work"
 And yet, as compared with law yers, for instance, you doctors charge comparatively little in pay cases," l suggested.
 ''Let me tell you a story about that" said he "I was once called in to at- tend the young son of prominent lawyer. He was very sick boy and the father was well-nigh crazy with fear that he was going to lose him. l worked very hard and constantly over the little patient for more than six weeks, meanwhile performing deli cate and difficult surgical operation on him, and at last brought him around well and strong. When I sent in my bill for $500 the father calmly told me that if I did not accept $250 he would stand suit; and after looking the matter over pro tty carefully l con- cluded that, since it would probably cost me $250 and lot of time to col lect the $500, would better settle the matter and be done with it.
 Some time later one of my patients put rather important case, involv- ing considerable sum of money, into this lawyers hands. The lawyer prob- ably spent ten days, all told, in the preparation and trial of the case, and lost it. Yet he presented a bill of $5,000 for the services, and when my patient refused to pay it, sued him and got judgment for the full amount just twenty times what he paid Inc for saving the life of his son, who was the very apple of his eye"
 am wondering whether, if it had been lawyer instead of doctor who put in the bill for $4,000 against the $30,OOO,OOO estate, Surrogate Silkman would have deemed it "wicked."- Brooklyn Eagle.

THE OLD SABBATH
Of HAWA|| NE|

The Friend says: Hon. G. d. Gil
man of Boston writes, recalling his
early experience of Honolulu in 1S41:
''The old Hawaiian Sabbath as 1t was,
is a most pleasant memory. The still
ness, the brightness, the bells calling
to worship, the orderly, quiet crowds
old and young, the CHEEKY greetings,
the varied costumes giving bright bits
of color along the road; the services
at Kawaiahao, first in the old thatched
church with the sides all eaten off by
horses and donkeys.-Limaikaika s
(Armstrong) sermon, and Lowell
Smiths in the afternoon, all have left
a memory that is yet dearly cherish
ed. But, alas, there are none about
me with whom l can share these
tender thoughts. He hoomanao vale
no ka noho malihini vale kahi e."
"I fully agree with you in regard to
those native Christians at Lahaina IN
the SOS. True and earnest ND to the
light they had, coming out of the gross
darkness they did. Old Kimokeo was
ore of the marked Christians of those
days and of influence for good. If
remember Alright, one could oftener
hear the voice of prayer from ma
tive house In those days than DIR. X.
told you he heard it in the East"
