The current number of Success has
an article on what Women Might DO
for Their Towns" in which 1t not only
commends the progress which women
have made along social and civic lines
and the influence they are able to
exert when organized and in earnest,
but draws the conclusion that If they
can accomplish as much as they have

Grafton of Women's Clubs with its
large membership. The writer says
And yet with this body of public spir,
tied women, we'll organized and
trained for concerted action, America
has the dirtiest towns in the civilized
world. The servant problem is worse
here than in any other country. The
laws protect our working women less
than do the laws of any-other civilized

there is abundant work of most i'm

There was such a jam on the New
York subway that the managers of the
road put into service trains with sep

found that the women rather stand up
in the regular coaches crowded with
men and will not patronize the cars
put on for their comfort. These cars
will be discontinued. This incident is
amusing as showing that lovely wo.
man does not enjoy being left alone.

RICH WOMAN PLAYED GOOD FAIRY ON
 DEATHBEO
STRANGE TALE OF BENEFACTION OF AGED LADY FOR SERVANT
 AND CRIPPLED BROTHER

CHICAGO, August 25.--A strange story of how a good fairy, in the per son of an aged woman, entered into the life of a house servant and her crippled brother, is involved in a suit which IS scheduled for decision in the probate court here today.
 At the hearing of the queer case, Edward Morrison sought to know what had become of $79,000 worth of bonds and stocks which his wife, Balbena Morrison, possessed just before she died last May. Mrs. Kate Hitler, the daughter of an elevator conductor, and her crippled brother Carl Hauber, were called upon to explain. Mrs. Hilier and her husband were arrested in Ho- boken, x. l., June r., just as they were about to board liner for a long visit in Europe. This is Mrs, Hiller $ story;
 eI knew Mrs. Morrison for nine wears. 1 was called to her home to act as housekeeper for ten months. l left there in April. l first met her when she came to buy some lace had made. She took an interest in my crippled brother and bought some paper flowers which he had made.
 ssOn July ,, 1908, she called me to a couch in her room. Dear, have something for you, she said. Then she went to a closet of the dining room and brought out tin box. She open ed it and handed me one package, tell ing me that it held $70,000 in money, which was for myself. Then she took another package containing bonds val ued at $79,000, which she said should give to my brother. She said: C Here, my child; take this and keep it. Do with it as you wish, and may God bless you and make you rich I hope that you have much luck. took the money and invested if, but tput the bonds back under the bed, be i cause l thought Mrs. Morrison had a sister who might need them. v This remarkable story was corrobor ated by Mrs, Matilda Plum, sister of Mrs. Hitler. Mrs Morrison was 6t years old at the time this gift is said to have been made.
