YOUNG GIRLS OF TENEMENTs.
Speak gently. kindly, to the poor.
Let no harsh term be heard.
They have enough they must endure
Without an unkind word.

There never were truer words than
zone half Of the world does not know
how the other half lives"
Do the women of wealth luxuriating
in fashionable summer hotels give a
thought to the young girls of the tene-
ments in the hot cities they have left
behind them? If they but knew of the
surroundings amid which thousands of
such girls exist they would wonder
not why so many go wrong. but how
they manage to keep to the straight
and narrow path trayersed by the good
and pure among such lamentable sur
roundings which fairly bristle with
temptation.
In the daytime at their foil these
young girls are safe from harm. It
is when night falls that grave ills men
ace them. When the thermometer is
lowering close to the hundred mark,
breathing in the few rooms in which
the whole family is crowded becomes
almost uncomfortable. There is but one
hope for relief and that is the roof.
They find almost every inch Of room
pre-empted. The young iongshoremen
who board in the basement allow the

cided to become honest.
On the third morning he was taken
aback when he called for the payment
of his weekly bin and customer be-
gan to Shrek at him:
'You needn't serve me any longer,
she said. "and I'm not going to pay
you for the last two days"
why, what's the trouble?' he in
quired anxiously..
"Trouble. indeed. When the milk
you've been leaving yesterday and the
day before stood a couple of hours
there was a nasty, thick scum on it,"
And it took him half on hour 10 ex.
plain what cream was.

get work done, but she does not give
q thought to that until she receives
a note from nice young man, stating
that he would be pleased to call on
such and such an evening, and will
present himself punctually at her
home unless, in the interim, he has
word from her to cause him to change
his plans.
From that hour on such scurrying
as there is in that household. Young
men are keen-sighted, 1t would never
do to have dust on the panels of the
doors, or on the picture frames.
There's the worn carpet to take up
and turn about, the seat Of the old
sofa to jack up when it says, a hole In
the curtain to darn, the chairs to
dust and the lamp wick to be trimmed
and put in shape to be lighted. Then
there's the only evening dress she
owns. The last time she wore it was
at a molasses candy pull. The front
breadth bore evidence to that in a
long stain. to say nothing of huge
rent at the bottom of the skirt. She
had walked home in a light rain. caus.
ing her white slippers to become mud
despatched. Mother was too busy to
even lend a hand. All the tasks rest
ed on the shoulders of the girl. who
was so unprepared. Her mother made
no attempt to conceal her hurry. re-
Winding the girl that she had urged
her so often to do a little at time,
to keep the best room and her own
clothes in order. fearing just such a
contretemps. OF course it was a gi-
gantic undertaking, rushing through
two weeks task in that many days,
even with poor old mothers aid and
pressing tired old father into the serv-
Ice tC battle with the taking up. turn
ing and relaying Of the carpet. and
putting iron braces on the shaking
chairs.
The dress required remaking almost.
Between puckering and ripping out,
twisting and turning, sewing so far
into the night, she lost her beauty
sleep and her good nature into the
bargain. To be sure the young man
arrived promptly, but he was puzzled
beyond words as to what could pos
sibly have happened to change an I'M
usually pretty girl into a positive
fright in two days time. She was
too tired to make herself really inter-
esting or companionable. Therefore
the young man cut his call as short as
possible. He had found that hour so
irkSOme. he Shirked calling again.
The lesson on the trials of being I'M
prepared struck home to the girl, who
would have never learned it so COM
pletely under any other circumstances.
Every home should be in such apple
pie order that company could drop
in unexpectedly at any time without
creating discomfort, confusion, fuss or
furry.

girls who live in the top floor rear
part of the space they have secured.
There is little or no cessation Of the
terrible heat. The mouths of the la
borefs and their wives are parched.
Mosquitoes and other insects add to
their torment. They cry out that
their thirst must be quenched. Wa
ter Is not Forthcoming, but the drink
that benumbs the brain and makes
them forget their miseries in stupor
is. 1t is forced upon the young girls
and children alike, and the morning
sun rises upon many a hapless girl
who will live to rue those hours DUR
ing all her after lie.
Amid such surroundings and influ-
enceS the summer nights are spent,
and there Is no one to raise the mighty
cry, "What can be done to save the
young girls Of the tenements from I'M
wise assOcatiOns?"
The beautiful summertime is crowd
ed with joys for the daughters who
receive tender. watchful care, but full
Of dangers and pitfalls for the inno-
cent girls of the poor who are robbed
OF protection and chance to 20
right. If the parks of the great cities
were open to girl toilers, and to them
only. during the torrid nights of the
summer, the problem would be par
tally solved and their safety from
harm assured. Better the cool, green
grass, close to the bosom of kind
Mother Earth than the sunbaked roof
of the tenement. where each and every
family has equal rights, but where the
strong dominate and the proper respect
for girlish innocence may not always
be preserved.
Women off Summerng who have left
closed-up homes and spacious grounds
we'll fenced in behind them could do
their share of lettering the condition
OF the young girls Of the tenements by
allowing few of them to camp at
night on their grounds. An ounce of
prevention in averting evil is worth q
pound Of cure.
