GIVES HER LIFE TO POOR.
Splendid Work of Education Done by New Orleans Woman, Her.
 self an Invalid.

In the city of New Orleans are approximately 100000 white men and boys. Of these, 1,500- three out of every POO you meet on the street-are dependent for their education this year, for the opportunity to learn to read and to write and so to advance their station in life-for all this absolutely dependent on one woman, says Everybody's maga- zine. This woman, whose impor- tance to the city is so great that if by any sad chance her activity were to cease one and one-ha4f per cent. of it's white made pOpu- latiOn would find itself deprived of hope, is not rich, but poor. She is so poor that before she can give an hour and dollar for the helpless ones who need her, she must give another hour to pay her own expenses for the day. She is so poor that she has even earned her own education as she has given it out, study ing sometimes but day ahead of her pupils. She is frail, crip- pied, very weak; she goes about in steel harness and on crutch- es. Though she is still under middle age, her hair is white as snow, from days and nights of unbelievable suffering.
 From morning till midafter- noon she teaches in a private school to earn money for her charities. From midafternoon until evening, if able to work, she devotes herself to the needs of those poorer than she. From supper time till nine, till ten, till midnight if need be, she faces the multitude of men and boys boys of nine and men of 50- who have come to her for help. Sometimes two in seat, some times on boards between the seats, sometimes on the edges of platforms and the treads of stairways and against the walls of the railways, they crowd her schoolhouse while she and her assistants are everywhere among them, hearing recita- tions, giving aid and counsel, ex- plaining, arguing, laughing, en. couraging-stirring the solid, sodden mass of the city's poor with the leaven of hope and pos sibility.

GUIDES CHILDREN.
Experience and a Mothers Love Make
Advice Valuable.

An Ills. mother writes about feeding
children:
IF mothers would use Grape-Nuts
more for their little ones, there would
be less need for medicines and fewer
doctor bills.
'If those suffering from indigestion
and stomach troubles would live on
Grape-Nuts. toast and good milk for a
short period they would experience
more than they otherwise would be-
lieve.
"our children have all learned to
know the benefit of Grape-Nuts as an
appetizing. strengthening food. 1t is
every evening, with few variations.
like this: Mamma, let's have toast and
Grape. Nuts for breakfast; or. let's have
eggs and Grape-Nuts'-never forget
ting the latter.

Now he Is keeping little country

well that they take pleasure In patron

Is and has been supporting his Wild

years he delivered the mail TO 81 fam
i!ies. a distance of !: miles. between
Vaudeville and Quote During that
time he lost but two days. and never
made mistake in the delivery OF his
mail.
His faithful pony would never pass
a house without going up to the mail
box and stopping. though the rain
might be falling In torrents or nerce
blizzard raging.

place the mail In the boxes as direct

the Journal of Alsacc.iorrainc. the

The machine reproduces sound au.

graphic characters. 1t is operated In
the same way as the typewriter and
has n keyboard. which consists OF 20
keys. Each key. upon being pressed.
points the corresponding letter on n
band OF paper. which unrolls itself on
n sort of pulley. The characters nre
the same rs those OF the usual alpha.
bet. II is easy to read at first sight
what the machine has written. It is
simple. strong and light. and exacts
in Its management neither effort nor
rigid attention. A child or blind man
can easily learn to use It. II writes
vc-r swiftly. writing ms high rs 200
words minute without fatiguing the
operator or annoying the orator by
noise. By means of an interchange
able keyboard 1t can be used for all
languages.
The machine was recently exhibit
ed In the office OF the Journal of Al

gave excellent results. reproducing

WIEN MONEY WAS SCARCE.
Practically Unobtainable During Period
Of Mssouri's History.

However scarce money may be at
times at the present" said an old Mis-
sourian, ''the oldest inhabitants will
recall when 1t was almost unobtain-
able and other commodities had to be
used as media of exchange. The
VOLTS scalp was worth a dollar be-
cause 1t was a state bounty upon the
death of wolf, and venison hams
and deer skins also had a purchasing
value. Skins of the fur bearers were
likewise abundant and valuable. When
the first sheriff of Audrain county, in
1887. went to Jefferson City to deliver
the county revenue, he met an old
friend on the way who. needing
money, wanted to borrow the actual
coin part of the county's revenue. The
good-hearted sheriff lent 1t to him and
went on to the capital and delivered
only the scalps. BY the time of the
next settlement the loan was repaid
and the sheriff made his next settle
ment complete. No note or other OBJ
legation than the mere word was
given. '-Columbia Herald.
