He drew on almost savagely. cover ing page after page of the notebook with the rough ideas. It was not until the next station was reached and he opened the door
 and stepepd out to assist her. that he spoke:
 T shall never forget what you have done for me today" he said. T only
 hope you will forgive me-"
 When next they met, some long
 months after. they stood side by side before q picture-the picture It was at a soree given at private view or certain art exhibition. and the young artist from where he stood hug grily watching the different effects ms
 work had on the mere less casual spec tators, had suddenly turned his head | to the door and seen her come in. She had walked straight to his end or the | gallery, and stood motionless before the picture.
 He came to her side, and with some
 thing like an apology TOT speaking on
 his face. began:
 Excuse me-but knew, felt you
 would come this evening" She colored slightly, and gave him
 little, distant DOW. Then she looked at the picture. There was the flaming s1set, just as she remembered it. with its vivid reds lighting up the face of a girl sit ting by a window, d book held In her two white hands. There was sim plicity about the pose and dressing of the picture that might easily cause it be passed by as mere excellent
 piece of detail work, unless one looked long at the face of the girl. Then one could see she had just raised her eyes, with her lips parted to speak. She seemed to meet the gaze of each person with d wondering yet half
 naughty expression There was a mysterious. nameless fascination in the beautiful brown eyes,. in which
 lay the reason for the whole picture.
 Do you like her?" asked the young artist, eagerly.
 Not as a portrait of myself" the girl answered
 "Oh. why not?"
 "You have used too much of the ideal lady you were thinking off," she an- swered. and too little of the flesh and
 blood of me"

earning women. they themselves have bettered their own conditions both financially and socially in Danbury, Conn. If working woman's condition is bettered financially, immediately it is bettered socially. Twenty-one years ago the Hat Trimmers' Assoication of Danbury. was formed. largely through the efforts of Mrs. Ellen Foote. The as- sociation of brave women workers held together against attempts to force down wages or to lower their social condition. Today they constitute the really best people" of the place. Their homes are comfortable, their social recreations refined and delightful. and they themselves are intelligent and well educated.
 Mrs. Foote herself worked at hat trimming before her marriage, she
 worked at it as an independent. self
 supporting woman after Ter marriage.
 Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gilman has been derided. even sometimes by wo-
 men themselves, because she asserts
 boldly that for the sake of their own liberty and individuality married wo- men should be money makers. With out arguing at all on the question. Mrs. Ellen Foote has quietly illustrated in actual practice Mrs. Gilman's doctrine. When her babies were little. Mrs.
 Foote tended tsem and meantime did hat trimming by piecework that was sent to her at home by her employers. Later she went to the factory ana took l the little ones with her. They slept | upon a comfortable bed or played about l d clean floor while she worked. Mrs. l Gilman would have instead of this 2 public nursery. Mrs. Foote says her l children were well dressed, we'll fed and
 well taught and that her wage earning
 never interfered with her duties as wife
 and mother. Moreover. she declares distinctly that her case is only one of
 many in happy Danbury.
 Original indeed is that plan evolved
 from her inner consciousness by Miss | Fannie Partridge. an Illinois woman.
 Miss Partridge suggests to the Carne- gies, the Rockefellers. any old multi
 millionaire that instead of giving their
 money to pile up bricks and mortar for | libraries they appropriate some of it for annuities to old maids-the real old | tmey old maids, who lived their work | ing lives before the new woman came 1 in. These estimable old time maids | could not in their day learn any of the trades or professions now open to their ] sex. All they could do, lacking young

Another Blow at Anania..

Morristown, tN. J.) telegram 10 NC"
 York Tribune.
 The cold weather yesterday morning found its way into Alonzo Murphy's kitchen at Mount Free dom and killed specimen of vegetable kingdom that for months had been the price of MT. Murphy's heart and with which he expected to revolutionize darying and strawberry culture.
 It has long been a cherished idea of MT. Murphy that by judicious crossing of the milkweed and straw berry 1t would be possible to produce strawberries and cream from the same plant. Last fall he grafted several strawberry plants on plants of the milkweed. One grew sturdily, close by Mir. Murphys kitchen range, and in full fruitage when 1t succombed to the. cold that entered the room when the fire in the range by accident went out.
 That the experiment was entirely successful is shown by the fact that each strawberry when examined was found to contain a quantity of cream, varying from few drops to tea spoonful, depending on the size of the berry. Mir. Murphy is not discouraged by his Ill luck and promises to re- peat the experiment next summer.

Why put so much money into bricks and books? Instead of institutions, why not try individuals?" asks Miss Fannie artridge. And for the purpose of
 making comfortable the inf1rm single women who were unfortunately born a

 pr. Rachel S. Sidelsky of the Wo-
 mans Club of Philadelphia has been Investigating the new serious problem | of why an immense and constantly in- creasing number of men in America de- | sert their wives. It Is to the credit | of the native born American that the ! wife deserters are largely from our for | eign population. Significant it Is. too.
 that pr. Sidelsky names as among tha
 leading causes of wife desertion large | families" The deduction seems to be ! that since ip American families there
 are not so many children the husband and father does not so often become
 discouraged and abandon them. Dr.
 Sidelsky knows of one chronically de- | sorting husband who leaves his wife | regularly on the birth of every addi-
 tional child in order that public chari-
 ty may bear the expenses of the new | advent on this planet. After the af-
 fair is all over the husband goes home
 again. The Philadelphia Woman's
 club has memoralized President Roose- welt on the subject of wife desertion
 but so far there appears to be nt in- | spired utterance from him in response l It is to be noted that Lady Henry
 Somerset has come out in an earnest
 appeal to all the world to begin to re. gain the use of its left hand. Re-
 searches show that primitive man was
 ambldextrous. The left lobe of the
 brain governs the right side of the
 body, and through overlooking and taxing that left lobe by using only
 one hand we have brought on serious
 brain and nerve troubles
 Lady Henry mentions that Queen Vic
 toria could draw with the left hand as
 well as the right and that Leonardo da 1 Vinci could use either hand with equal 1 skill. The Japanese are many of them

The head was like that of a skeleton. It disappeared. The party went to the door and into the adjoining room, but the "specter" had vanished.

SOME WOMEN WHO THINK
 AND WHAT THEY THINK

Advanced scientists of the male per- suasion begin to admit that woman is capable of thinking. It is certain, too, that the majority of women .i.ink they think whether they do or not
 It Is significant that the meditations of women who really do think are di- rected largely toward ameliorating the industrial condition of their own sex
 John Oliver Hobbes, in private life Mrs. Pearl Craigie, most admirably goes in with all her soul sor whatever she does go in for. Her conclusions on industrial questions are worth some thing. for she herself is money earn CT. John Oliver Hobbes has no words tao hard for the aristocracy which founds itself upon money and useless ness, seeing it has nothing else to build on. She points out to us tha.
