Wants $4,000.

lnclnnati.-Because street car on
which she was riding gave a sudden
lurch and Theodore Wolking, promi-
nent business man of Latonia, quite
unostentatiously sat down in her Ian
for an instant, Mrs. Martha Bunch, No.
zoos Madison avenue, Covington, the
widow of the late Henry Bunch, wants
damages in the sum of 10000.
She claims that Wolking was neglect
ing his duty in failing to support HIM

natl Street Railway company and
Wolking.
Mrs. Bunch alleges that she was on
a car bound for Cincinnati and that
when the car reached the Covington
entrance to the suspension bridge, by
reason of negligence the car was al
lowed to round the curve at a high rate
of speed, bringing up on the straight
piece of track beyond with a sharp
jerk.
The Plaintiff further alleges that
Theodore Wolking was standing in
front of her, and, not having taken the
precaution to cling to a strap, was pre-
cipitated into her lap when the car
swung around the curve.
She claims that by reason of this
fact she sumered great mental and ply

Each year a wonderful sign.

chosen. 1t matters less whether one
talks very much than whether one has
the exact phrase at hand to fit and
clothe her thought. ....
Some Of us are singularly unfamiliar
with what is going on about us in this
most entertaining and interesting Pc
ROD. No one can have very much to
talk about who does not daily read the
newspaper Current events at home
and abroad, discoveries, inventions and
the various things that belong to the
forward march Of civilization, should
interest girls. do not care very much
whether a girl is learned or brilliant
or clever so long as she Is interest
ing. 1t is woman's essential duty
to have charm. One who has no charm
may have every virtue in the calendar,
but will go through life an uninterest-
ing woman. .~-s.
Silent girls are by no means devoid
OF charm. The most popular girl in
the world is not always the one who
is readiest of speech. The girl who is
witty at the expense of others, who is
satirical or ironical or places others
even mOmentarily in a false position,
will never long be welcome in any COM
pany The tongue-tied girl is in no
danger of offending in this way. Her
silenceJi her shield. .al
One thing should be taken to heart
by all girls, and that is never to tell
anecdotes or stories to group of lis
teners unless they know how to do it,
and are not in danger of missing the
point. The ability to tell good story
at the right moment is as enviable an
accomplishment as the ability to play
sonata or sing a ballad. But the
blunderer, who tells story badly, has
the modification of seeing the effort
fall fiat, and has not always the acute
ness to understand what has hap
pened.
A tongue-tied young woman may
comfort herself by the reflection that
it is not necessary for her always to
take the lead. She should leave that
to older women. For herself she has
the beauty of youth, >the sweetness of
the early years, and the happy feeling
that life is all before her and that the
day will come when, although she is
reserved now, she will undoubtedly
find plenty to say and many people
willing to listen to her Difidence,
resolutely met, will vanish like the
morning dew before the sun.
Then, is it not far more desirable to
say nothing at ali than to talk un-
kindly of ones neighbors, or to criti-
else the absent? l would rather go
tongue-tied than gain reputation for
cleverness by gossiping unkindiy about
acquaintances or friends. Things, not
persons, should compose the staple OF
daily talk. Remember this, and
tongue-tied to-day, may be fluent to-
morrow.

The Hats True History.


No when Easter was only three days
off Edith began to think seriously
about an Easter hat. The girls kept
asking If her "New York nat had
come, and, resolving not to disappoint
them altogether, she had laughingly
replied: "Not yeti" But her mother,
on whose assistance she had counted,
was still away from home.
So this rainy afternoon Edith had
gone up garret" to rummage the
closets and trunks. And finally she
had unearthed treasure-her grand
mothers wedding bonnet! 1t was a
great feghorn hat, entirely dismantled
now and helplessly battered and
stained.
II wonder what -blacking
would do for it," mused Edith. ''And
by catching the brim up-so that
hole wouldn't be seen. But-for the
trimming? Great-grandmother's lace
cap strings! They'll make dainty
ruching, and I'll put bunch Of
something or other, where the brim's
looped up. There won't be another
hat in Oldtown like it-Or in New
York, either!"
Edith's fingers flew, and seemed
gifted with a fairy touch, although
the finished hat proved queer-look-
ing object-ih the hand.
Mrs. Day reached home the after
noon before Easter. Presently she
said: 20, Edith, you never wrote me
about your new hats it success?"
Edith's eyes danced. ''I'll put it
on, mamma, and you can see
Mrs. Day regarded it critically.
"Well, it's certainly not-what ex-
pected."
But, mamma, will it do to wear?"
Eyes, DEAR" replied her mother,
"and really, it looks very we'll. But
1T didn't come from New York, now
did it?"
Then, laughing and blushing, Edith
told the entire story, only begging her
mother to let nobody into their secret
just then.
So that is how Edith came to wear
that remarkable "dull black leghorn, =
trimmed with time-yellowed lace and
real bittersweet berries, on Easter day.

saw some of her "Sunday-school chill
dren, and spoke to them.
Presently she came upon child who
was crying bitterly. why, what's
the matter, little one?" she asked; "are
you hurt?"
The child grasped Edith's hand and
dragged her forward, murmuring be-
tween her sobs: "Mudder sick-turned
out. And before she realized what
the child was doing Edith stood on
the threshold of one of the poorest
tenements
IN the dim room she saw a weeping
woman, two tiny children and man,
who was talking angrily.
Come" he said, no more of this!

you can't pay-so out you go!''

I've heard all that before out

this very afternoon"
How much does she owe?" Edith
asked, suddenly And the man, who
had not noticed her presence until
then, started and stared at her. Then
his offensive manner changed and he
answered civilly.
Edith's heart leaped with gladness.
The amount he named-the four
weeks rent for this poor family-was
less than she held in her hand.
IF l pay you, will you promise to
leave this woman here in peace, and
even if she isn't able 10 pay promptly

"Certainly, miss. I didn't know she
had friends, or l wouldn't have both
cred her. And I'm only the agent, miss;
l was obeying orders.'
"Sign the receipt" said Edith, count
ing out the money, and the man
obeyed. Then respectfully bidding her
good afternoon" he went away.
The poor woman fell on her knees
and kissed Edith's hands, while the
children danced joyously around her.
Don't, don't!" cried Edith. "Why.
I'm SO glad l could. And here's a
dollar left-take that, for it may be
still some days before you are strong
enough to work.
She escaped at last and hastened on
toward the post Office, with happy
tears in her eyes and the woman's
blessings ringing in her ears.
Suddenly she stopped. "Why should
I go there-now?" she said And
tearing her letter, she watched the
pieces scatter in the wind, crying gay
ly: "Good-by, my New York haiti
Then she started for home, repeat
ing softly to herself: "Inasmuch as
We have done it unto one of the least
of these-ye have done it unto Me-
Edith wondered what mamma
would say" But there were visitors
at the house that afternoon, so she
had no chance to tell her mother.
And the next morning Mrs. Day was
called suddenly away to her sick sister
in neighboring town.

The Hat Itself.

It was beautiful and bright on Easter
morning, and Oldtown church was
filled to the doors.
No one would have admitted that
sheer he-felt the slightest curiosity
to see Edith Days New York hat"
yet when Edith came in all eyes for a
moment rested critically, wonderingly
or admiringly upon the decidedly un-
usual creation which adorned the
young girls head.
And afterward on their homeward
way these various comments upon it
were exchanged:
Its awfully becoming!" Its a
perfect fright" Its stylish-but it's
queer!" 1T looked like dull black
leghorn." "Such old-time yellow lace!"
Wasn't that wreath real bittersweet
berries!" "Queerest New York hat I
ever saw!" "She looked roguish-she
knew everyone was looking at it,"
''She hurried home as If she felt afraid
we'd ask how much it COST 1T
looked like coal scuttle upside
down."
And the final verdict was this: "Old-
town millinery is good enough for us!"
Why It Was What It Was.
All winter Edith had saved her
money with this object in view. And
at last, two weeks before Easter, the
important letter was written to the
friend in New York, and Edith started
for the post office to get the money
order and send 1t of.
Where are you going?" asked
Marian meeting her.
ITO order my new hat. Come with
me-
II can't. I'm going up-street for

she thought, disdainfully: Edith cares
for nothing but her clothes

her way. She had taken tho short
