WHEN COMPANY is EXPECTED
Elaborate Preparations to Welcome
the Guest, Though II lie but for
a Brief Period.

The gardener comes in to lay
hearth fires and carry tables. We
get out china and silver. We make
salad and rolls, fruit-cup and cake.
We guide the cooks faltering steps
over the critical moments of soup
and chicken. We do the oysters in
our own particular way, which we
fancy inimitable. We arrange bush
els of flowers in bowls, vases and
baskets, and set them on mantels,
tables, bookcases, everywhere that a
flower can find a footing. The
chauffeur comes in proudly with the
flower holder from the limousine,
and we fill it in honor of the distin-
guished guest.
Then we go outside to see that the
approach to the house is satisfactory.
The bland old gardener points to the
uncovered wall, and says with inno-
cent joy, " it, ain'i
that ivory the prettiest thing you
ever saw in your life" And we
can't deny that the lawn looks well,
with ivy and cosmos and innumer-
able chrysanthemums.
The cook and c~hambermaid will
have to help wait on the table. The
chambermaid, who is what the butler
contemptuously calls San educate J
Niger" and so knows nothing use
full, announces that she has no white
uniform. All she has is a cold in
her head. We give her a blouse and
skirt, wondering why Providence
doesn't eliminate the unft.-Atlan-

A MODERN SOLOMON.

All the solomons are not dead.
He was 3 magistrate who was used
to dealing with negro boys.
Two boys were brought up for
stealing.
Evidently one was guilty, but it
was hard to tell which one.
The magistrate placed them in
separate cells, gave each one a leather
string of equal length.
"Now, boys, the string in the
hands of the thief will grow" he
said.
In two hours the boys were
brought out.
One showed his string. 1t had
not been touched.
The other had cut two inches of
his string.
The judge said: 81 got you"
And he had.-Baltimore News.

Cities Have Function to Perform

Cities there will always be, if there
continues country population from
which to grow. These cities have func-
ton to perform, but 1t does not lie in
keeping aloof from the country. not in
scorning as it were the steps by which
they rose. Cities ought to be the clear
ing houses of a nations energy; they
ought to bring together. analyze, co-ordi-
nate and re-dstribute the component en-
ergies of a community. Instead of think
ing themselves apart from the country
they ought to consider how much each
ought to be and naturally Is part of the
other. How the success of the one ought
to be and under proper relations will con-
tribute to the success Of the other. In
addition to the proper articulation of n
community's effort the city ought also to
be the creator of opportunities, the seiz-
ing of which will be mutually profitable
Useful effort ought to be the aim of every
one and our cities have the duty of af-
fording opportunity for and of creating
desire to engage in it. on the part of all
her citizens. instead of destroying the
true idea of hospitality, by making US
selfish, instead of perpetuating conditions
under which the almost ceaseless hours
of toll Danish all chance of recreation on
the part of many while others can find
no labor at all The cities should look
to the fundamental cause of the trouble
and at how the remedy must be applied.
