HIM THAT GIVES GIFTS"

N1ISs SOPHIE, pretty product of Pittsburg. who
" writes bright things for the literary market;
loves epigrams. and one of her ravores is, Him
that gives gifts" or words to that effect. Whereof
herewith is reason
Among the little kindnesses that Sophie has to
her future credit, we'll present, is giving So
Il week to a worthy and her dependent famiiJ
somewhere near Pittsburg. This she sends from
New York by check with extreme regularity. On
occasion. last Christmas, say, the woman sent
word to her bpnefactress that if she would send her
50 10 at she need not send the usual s.. she
wanted the money for a special purpose ana she
would find way TO get the s., as she already mad
part of it.
Miss Sophie forthwith sent check for $3.50 al
though she making effort herself to keeD
up with the charitable procession. Sth she believed
in the epigram and willing to take chance And
see how it worked out That sa e week she received
from editor check for exactly 80 with the ex-
PLANTATION that in maAlng up account for the pre-
viOus check he had overlooked seven and half
dollars worth of epigrams. That sounds Ike fiction,
perhaps, but if there is thing that Sophie can
not dO-she do many things-it is to prevarcate;
and this story comes direct from the lady herself.
As also does this one along the same lines and Is
more recent:-SOphie has a. stenographer, a young
and pretty New England girl, whom she found out Of
employment, at least not with employment yielding
a lalr nNng wage. Now, TO- SOpnle dl0nC very

extravagant wages when she did have one but she
didn't want to the girl subject to the temptations
that go with insufficient pay and she agreed to give her
place, temporarily, if IS week enough to meet
her expenses. The girl said three dollars more
than she receiving and she could get along on 1t
very comfortably. The job to continue only seven
weeks because that would bring the time up to the
date of Sophie's summer departure. A rapid cal
calculation showed that she would have to curtan
her own expenditures $50 uiless some good luck
brought returns, but she willing to help needy
sister and the girl went to work.
Within a week, before, Sophie had letter
from the editor Of a magazine out of town which had
been holding up a number of contributors, sew
eral of whom Sophie knew, ard none Of whom was
sangnine of ever getting anything for her claim.
The editor wrote that he regretted the financial condE
tion Of the magazine and teared that some of the
creditors would have to wait long time, but he felt
that extra effort should be made in her aud he
managed to get check for all the magazine owed her
and he enclosing it to her The check called for
$J675 and when recipient looked into its face she
almost went into spasms Now. IL anybody OF any
faith tells Sophie that there Is in the
