A Chat With the Girls.

heard somebody, perhaps it was a
prude, say the other day that fashionably
accomplished young ladies consider it a
disgrace to enter kitchen or know how
to max loaf of bread. Now we know
some sensible girls who do not consider
themselves disgraced if they are found
helping their mother, and moreover we
know that what the above mentioned
prude said is true in many instances.
Society at the present day demands that
girls shall be what they call accomplished;
and to fulfill this demand the mothers of
Chrstendom teach their daughters that
knowledge of all that belongs to LIES
duties at home is not one of the require
ments, that manual labor must be conso-
nant with drawing room cultivation. And
so their lily hands slip idly over the piano
keys; they waltz in the most approved
style; shipper a little French or German,
quote poetry-an society says they are
accomplished. Doubtless they are, and
by-and-by, as all modern fashionables do,
they win a husband.
Now is there one of their boosted ac-
complishments that will help to make or
bless home? We know that music is
pleasant, and home is not home where
there are no songs or sweet harmonies;
but knowledge of the piano will not
help woman discharge her wifely duties,
and smattering of French or an ability
to waltz gracefully, will do but little to-
wards preparing a palatable dinner for a
husband when he comes home hungry.
Modern girls have not less ability than
our grandmothers had; the evil all lies in
the principles imbibed in early years. If
mothers will teach, by word and deed,
that idleness is an accomplishment, then
what may we expect? Where shall we
look for the true women, the blessed
in the years to come? The woman who
would fill lfe's station nobly and we'll,
cannot learn too much. If she fails in her
home she will fail in all, for there rest the
basis of her ultimate success.

seven months, boycotted the Sun at
the time Of its trouble and has been
out of the Times for about four years.
When .he New York World reduced
the price Of it's paper from two cents
to one cent, it gained 10000 circu-
lation in three weeks, but gave mp
1000 q day. $4,000 year in
revenue and added at least $500 . day
to it's expenses. That meant loss Of
$3.50. 600 year in gross revenue. Mr..
Norris went on to sag that the New
York Times is prospecting. but the
fact was painfully evident that its
profit for long period would not pay
for the additional cost on its new
building, which was put upon it by
the many Unions in fights to which
the Times was not party. These
fights added $53S, 900 to the cost Of
construction.
The Herald is three. cent paper
and can afford many extravagances
and submit to many exaotions but
there are extremes beyond which one
cent papers cannot go. The demands,
he declared, are verging upon the
point of putting up some newspaper
shutters. The New York World pays
out so, 500. 600 year for labor. This
is at the rate of $4,000 a week and
the remarkable fact is stated that
there are 1000 men now on it's pay
roll who receive over 1900 q year.
The news dealers make profit of
81, 500, 600 every year from its sale.
The smallest share of returns goes to
the newspaper capital.
Mr.. Norris goes on to add that the
daily newspaper business is the most
precarious venture that can be de-
vised. The most highly prosperous
in the city spends more than 80 per-
cent of its revenue in it operating
expenses, while most of the papers
show deficits. The newspaper per-
centage of profit is less than that Of
any other manufacturing enterprise.
For every $1,000 of increased business
gained by at least one paper more
than ST. 900 has been paid out to get
it, In a period of ten years the New
York Worlds expenses increased 40
per cent. and its earning power de-
creased fully as much. Such facts as
these are staggering.
Joseph Pulitzer, when he learned
the cost of cutting down the price of
his paper from two cents to one cent
declared, I'VE prefer power to profit. 7"
Either newspaper is to be conducted
for profit or else it becomes dependent
upon some rich man like Mr.. Pull
itzer, who is willing to conduct it for
the power it gives him, or else upon
some rich man like Mr.. Hearst for
the political opportunity which it
affords, or else the newspaper must
be subsidized.

Pleasant NeighbOrhOods.

Ones pleasure, after all, is much af-
fected by the quality of ones neighbors,
even though one may not be on speaking
terms with them. A pleasant, bright face
is surely better than Disconnected, cross
one; and house that has an air of being
inhabited is preferable to closed shutters
and unsocial blinds, excluding every ray
of sunlight and sympathy.
We like to see the glancing, cheerful
light through the window, of cold night,
or watch them, as evening deepens,
gradually creeping from the parIor to the
upper stories of the house near US. We

The Cost of Making Newspapers

There are over %, newspapers in
the United States, and yet there is nc
other branch of business in regard to
which such dense ignorance prevails
as to cost and profit of production,
says the Wall Street Journal.
Some extremely important facts
bearing upon the cost of publishing
newspapers in the city of New York
have recently been given in a brief
submitted by John Norris on behalf
of the publishers. Mr.. Norris is an
acknowledged expert upon the subject
of which he writes, having long been
connected with the business depart.
ments of leading New York and Phila.
delphia newspapers.
Mr.. Norris does not hesitate to say
that there Is now impending over
the daily newspaper press of New
York the most serious menace that
ever confronted 1T. An additional
burden of $4,000, 900 a year in the
expense account Of 16 daily news
papers constitute menace of which
Mr.. Norris speaks, but there is a
larger menace than that back Of these
figures, of which amount will be
given later on. This $4,000, 900 q
year of added expense includes So. 600, :
600 for white paper, $500, 600 addition
al for sterotypes and 100000 adj
dititional for other labor. Mr.. Norris
declares that no more than 4 papers
out of the Is which he represents
could make both ends meet upon such
terms. He adds that these 16 papers
pay 81, 500, 900 year tribute to organ.

additional cost of closed shop over
an open one. He is not antagonlzing
the closed shop, the principle Of
which he accepts, but he asks how
long the newspapers will be able to
meet these additional charges upon
them. 1--WE are. he says. tap

Saturday Evening Reveries.

Boys, do not forget that profanity
is a mark of low breeding. Show us
the man who commands the best res
pect; an oath never trembles on his
tongue. Read the catalogue of crime
Inquire into the character of those
who depart from virtue. Without a
single exception you will find them to
be profane. Truth is one of the
rarest gems. Many youth has
been lost to society by allowing it to
tarnish and foolishly throwing it
away. If this gem still shines in
your bosom, suffer nothing to dis
place it or dim it's luster.
This haJ been great year for land
ing, SO called, great men behind
prison bars. Mayors of metropolitan
cities, supervisors, bank presidents,
cashiers and even senators, are today
wearing prison garbs, who one year
ago were leaders of men. A desire
for wealth is commendable. No
young man should allow himself to
be discouraged nor his ambition to be
dampened by the present common out
cry against wealth. The opportuni-
ty which riches afford the possessor
for doing good in this country are so
numerous and ample that wealth,
properly used, may be the means of
-, a b ;rc ~ tho ,,,ocf o1,r; h1o obor
acters, while those who are inclined
to depart from the path of rectitude
would do SO as quickly in one condi-
tion as in another. To save money
and amass fortune, if done with q
proper motive, is not only laudable
ambition, but duty. It is duty
to ones self, ones family and the
community in which one lives. It
is providing for old age, for calam-
ity in business, or sickness, for the
means of helping the poor and reliev-
ing the oppressed. There can be no
better instruction given young man
than that which imrresses q true ap-
probation Of the worth Of money.
Such an early impression would have
saved many man and many family
from serious misfortune, discomfort,
unhappiness and even crime. The
making Of money and the saving of
money, as distinguished from the
misery love Of money which is said
to be the root Of all evil, should be
the aim Of all young men who start
ont in life for themselves. They in
clude habits Of industry that lead to
contentment and often ward off dis
sipation, want and future misery.
It was not the gathering in Of wealth
that has sent so many leading men to
prison, it was the unlawful manner
in which they endeavored to resp
their harvest. All the wealth q
young man can honestly accumulate
will do him moro good than harm.

ExCelSiOr-Eureka.

Never in the history of any country, in
any age, has there been such a mighty
work before the youth of our land as there
is to day; and we might say never were
young men as ignorant of it and unified
for their work. Each one wants the other
to row the boat while catches the fish.
All seem to believe in luck. Let us say
to you, young men, that pluck wins more
battles than luck. Wishing is the easiest
way in the world to get a poor living.
Looking for the. fortunate star to rise is
like standing on the oceans strand wait.
ing and watching for wealth-laden ships
to come over the sea that never put out"
Wishing brings small income, and the
taxes on it are enormous. Don't say the
world owes you living until you have
earned one. Idleness in boys and girls is
the blacklist curse of any land. There is
just as great work and justa as noble for
the young woman as for the young man.
When the girls, in earnestness, cast aside
the loose cloak of vain ficklenesS, and,
DOMINIC the beautiful garments of labor
ing purity, come forth from the sickly
chamber of the accomplished" asking
"What shall we DOR and bearing the
motto "Woman's ability shall see light"
then the boys will become more earnest,
more temperate, more like men. Dear
young people be not afraid or ashamed of
labor. Hard hands, strong arms, and
sun-burned faces lare honorable. Take
Excelsior" for your motto, and If you
are patient, in few years you can surely
write under it that other good word,
Eureka"
Every man must patiently abide his
time. He must wait, not in idleness, but
in useless pastime, not in querulous dejec-
ton, but in constantly, steadily filling and
accomplishing his task, that when the
occasion comes he may be equal to it.
The talent Of success is nothing more than
doing what you can do we'll, without a
thought of fame. If it comes at all 1t will
come because it is deserved, not because
it is sought after. 1t is very indiscreet
and troublesome ambition which cares
so much about what the world says of US;
to be always anxious about the effect
of what we do or say; to be always shout
ing to hearithe echoes Of our own voices.

MONUMENT ID THE
 LATE AL SHEER
Suitable Memorial of Native Granite Will Mark Grave of
 Pioneer Scout

During the last session of the terri torial legislature, the member of the council from this district, Geo. w. P. Hunt, caused to be inserted in the ap- propriation bill clause appropriating $l00 from the territorial funds for the erection of monument to the late Al Sieber, the pioneer scout and Indian fighter, who was accidentally killed at Roosevelt while the legislature was in session. Recently the territorial board of control informed Mir. Hunt of the granting of the funds and he was given charge of the memorial to be erected over the old pioneer s grave in Globe. Mir Hunt decided that the most fitting monument would be one of native granite, which also would not be as costly as an imported monument. Work has begun on it and it will be completed in a few weeks.
 The monument will be of two large boulders of native granite. One of these will serve as a base and the other, which will be about five feet high, will be erected on it. Only the front of it will be polished and suitable inscrip- tion engraved upon it. It is planned to have brief exercises at the grave when the monument is placed in position.
