iWouiPii who make and cell fancy goods
-anl domestic articles for "pin money"
v'- aro rifddly denied the institution's bene-
vrltts. 1 ho applicant must prove that she
needs the money and that it means a
material litrhteiiintr of the burden ehe
bears.
The proper committee investigates her
case, and if she is deemed worthy she is
given a consignor's privilege at the low
rate of $2 a year. This will enable her
to offer for ealo anything she can make
and bring or neiid to tho exchange. If
it is a salable article it is accepted and
disposed of at tho fixed price by tho
owner, lOporoent. commission being de
ducted. For tho benefit of those who are
Tinablo to pay even tho consignor's fee a
very happy plan lias been adopted.
Charitable women joining the society
and paying an annual subscription of $5
become members of tho board of.mnna
gers, and are each entitled to three con
signor's tickets, which the give to those
who are not ablo to purchase them.
No names are attached to tho articles
exhibited for sale, all being registered
.and kept account of by tho bookkeeper.
. Women in reduced circumstances,
whose pride would forbid them making
I a parade of poverty, are thus uno.stenta
I tiously helped.
Tliero aro two departments domestic
Jind fancy. In tho former is a largo
variety of bread, rolls, pie, cake, jelly,
etc., sold at prices necessarily a little
higher than those of tho Harlem baker
ies. Tho fancy department contains
embroidery and all kinds of handiwork,
from a painted plaque to a baby's knit
jacket. These articles aro sold at as
nearly standard prices as possible, tho
managers taking frequent jaunts through
tho downtown stores to keep themselves
informed as to charges. Orders are re
ceived for sowing, knitting, etc., which
are given to poor women. A teachers'
directory and a directory of Harlem's
boarding houses are connected with the
exchange, and some intelligence office
business is done on a limited scale the
managers recommending servants of
whoso abilities they have positive knowl
edge. '
Four committees in plain sewing,
embroidery and art, entertainments and
domestic department have been select
ed to superintend the routine work of
tho exchange. These ladies, all residents
-of Harlem, have shown a deep interest
in tho undertaking, and to their efforts
jits success is largely due. i
The exchange is supported by sub
scriptions, consignors' fees and the 10.
per cent, commission on tho sale of arti-1
cles. The running expenses for rent,
salaries, fuel, gas. printing and supplies
are about $1,500 n year, a sum which is
unpleasantly close to the not income.
Occasionally a small amount is realized
through some social entertainment for
tho benefit of the cause. New York

Tlin CIiIcxro Temple.,
The corner stono of tho Woman's Tem
perance temple was laid Nov. 1 in Chi
cago. The exercises opened by tho sing
ing of "America" by a trained chorus of
2,000 children. Mrs. F. J. Thompson,
"Mother of the Crusade," assisted by tho
Rev. Florence Kollock, gave tho crusado
psalm. This was followed by an invoca
tion by tho' Rev. Dr. F. P. Goodwin, re
sponsive Scriptural reading, led by
Bishop Fellows, and the singing of Mrs.
Julia Ward Howe's "Battle Hymn of tho
Republic." Addresses wero delivered by
Mrs. Mary T. Lathrop, tho Itov. H. A.
Delano and Miss Frances 12. Willard.
Mrs. Matilda B. Carse. who projected
tho enterprise and is carrying it forward,
gavo n brief outline of the plan and
progress of tho work. Tho people then
went to tho temple at Monroe and La
Salle streets. After tho children had
sung a song written by Miss Willard for
tho occasion tho Rev. Ilerrick Johnson
mltdo tho dedicatory prayer. Then with
a silver trowel Mrs. Carse laid tho mor
tar for tho corner stono and Miss Will
ard smoothed it, whilo tho great chorus
of children sang "Rise, Temple, Rise."
The building is to bo in French Gothic
Btylonndis to cost $1,100,000. It will
bo thirteen stories, high, aud from tho
center of tho Gothic turrets will spring
an arch of gold bronzoseventy feet high,
flurmonnted by tho figuro of a woman
standing with outstretched hands and,
upturned l'aco as if in prayer. Six hun
dred thousand dollars' worth of stock
has been 6old. Boston Woman's Jour
nal. Co-operative IIonsfkejplngr.
The experiment of the co-operative
housekeeping organization which has
been in operation in Kansas City has
been watched with much interest, ns the
organization of such a club has been
heretofore mainly in ideal stories and
Bellamy like books. Tho club is limited
to fifty members, who elected their of
ficers and a board of directors, with
terms expiring in three, six nnd nine
months. Mrs. W. J. Kupper was placed
iu charge of tho house, and to her was
given tho arranging of tho bill of fare.
An assessment of 5.00 a week is levied
upon each boarder, and is payablo every
Monday morning.
Mrs. Kuppor uses nil tho money col
lected to supply tho table, and tho co
operative method enables her to supply
delic-tciea and a service equal to that ol
the beet hotels for tho sum of twclv
cents a meal. Thero aro thirty rooms
and suites in tho house, nnd these Mrs.
Kupper rents to such of tho members of
tho club as desiro to livo under tho same
roof, and a majority of them aro lodged
there.
As soon ;w a vacancy occurs a new
name is vutV, upon. During tho few
mouths that the club has been in exist
ence not a day has passed that some ap
plications have not been received. A
committee investigates each applicant,
and only the uames of the host people
are considered. Thero aro in tho club
ten married couples, and tho rest are
mostly merchants and business men. No
ladies are admitted unless as members of
iamilies, and no extra moals tro served.
Tho club was orjpuiized from ideas ad
vanced by Bellamy and some other
writers on s-.-ial questions, nnd is in
every way a big success. It is probable
that other clr.b.3 will bo organized horo
during the winter. Kansas City Star.
tsomo Society 1'vpense.
It is eaid that a congressman cannot
livo on lees th in $.1,000 a year in Wash
ington. 1 happen to know that it costs
a society rejiorter a nice round sum. 1
am as economical as I can be, but my
expenses creep up in spito of me. In tho
first place tliero is tho car and tho eab
fare. Washington i3 a city of magnifi
cent distances, and any ono who goes
into society has to travel from ono end
of it to tho other, over and over again,
in making calls. I walk when I can,
but I have to pay from $3 to $0 a week
during the gay season in car fare. As to
dress, thero is.another big item, though
Washington has t-o many different peo
ple from nil parts of tho world that ono
can wear any sot of a decent gown and
not be conspicuous.
Then there aro tho gloves and tho
shoes. One's hands and feet must bo
well dressed whatever the rest of tho
costumo may bo. 1 find that it always
pays to wear good gloves. And then tho
cards. Of course the lady correspond
ent must use the engraved card, and
what a lot of them it does take. Five
hundred is nothing, and I know of some
ladies who use man' thousands during
the season, and Sir Julian Pauncefote
once ordered 10,000 within two months.
As the cheapest engraved cards cost a
cent apiece this would represent $50 a
month for cards alone. Of course I do
not mean to say a society reporter needs
any such number, but they cost enough.
Miss Grundv's Letter.
I Cushions tltilorn.
Cushions seem to be tho perennial do
light of the average woman. This is an
age of cushions, and her soul rejoices in
them. Tho saddle bag cushions still ex
ist and are likely to, as they have hap
pily solved the "tidy" problem. Those
wretched things, abhorred by mankind,
are gone, it is hoped, never to return.
But having hung tho saddlo bags over
tho bucks of our chairs, there must still
be cushions galore for window seats,
! couches, corners, to fit in uncomfortable
' angles cushions unlimited and of every
variety. The melon cushion looks rather
pretty if it is well made, but tho acorn
cushion is newer and is being shown at
tho art shops. This, which is 'of course
many times tho size of its forest proto
type, has tho acorn of pale green silk
and the cup of darker green, which is
put on rather full and sowed down iu
spots to givo tho raised, uneven look of
nature.
Another pretty combination of the
acorn is reddish brown plush and pale
yellow silk. A loop is sewed for tho stem
to take hold by. These well defined
shapes, however, cannot bo recommend
ed a3 satisfactory for general wear.
Plain, square, oblong, oval or round
cushions last longer in every way, and
can bo so different in material aud deco
ration as to supply tho needed variety.
Wluto silk cushions wrought in gold
embroider' are used in very dainty
apartments, but their delicacy hardly
fits them for cushion service. Ex
change. Tlin I. litest Mourning Pad,
Of all the fashionablo fads of this
great metropolis that accentuation of
domestic grief which sliows itself in a
black shirt, black collar and culls and
white studs, white cuff buttons and
white necktie is about tho most ridicu
lous. Fashionable Now York will soon
bo dining at Dehnonico'a and promenad
ing Broadway with miniature coffins for
jewelry and artificial tears painted on
tho cheeks. It is doubtful whether such
people could really shed any other kind
but genuine hand painted tears. When
women put their toddling children in
deep mourning and rodo in the park with
their poodles decked with crapo it
seemed that this sort of thing could go
no further. Now that men have taken
to black shirts and sablo handkerchiefs,
however, tho onus of tomfoolery is re
moved from tho shoulders of woman
kind. It is enough to make tho dead
turn over in their graves and tear their
Bhrouds to ribbons. New York Cor.
Pittsburg Dispatch.
Men l.ll:n Aprons.
It is a funny thing, but nil men like
nprons'. Thero is u (something house,
wifely about them that suggests good
dinners and sweet, considerato caro.
Tho coquette thoroughly understands
this, and every season finds her armed
with an apron or two with which' she in
tends to quell mankind. Tho latest ono
is mado of mummy cloth, quite plain,
and gathered in at tho waist to a broad
Bash that is tied at tho back. At tho
bottom aro bands of tcarlet, blue and j
green ribbon, arranged just as are tho
bands of color on tho apron of a Roman
coutadina. No faint colors must be
chosen, but just such healthy tones as
tho dark haired, dark eyod Italian peas
ant would select as becoming to her.

I'lurklnj; Tur!coy.
To present a good appearance and
commaud a good prico u dressed jtoul
try, turkeys mint bo carefully handled,
both boforo r-Jaughtoring and whilo tho
feathers aro biug plucked. Much oth
er wise good poultry is badly injured and
made almost unsalable by reckless hand
ling. Do not let boys who take caro of
the birds drive them about with a stick
or by shying stones at t'aom. After the
turkeys aro hjlle.l hold them very care
fully, not by squeezing tho carcass be
tween the lnicos, whilo you pluck them.
A turkey which has been carelessly
injured, either beforo or after killing,
will not prove profitable when it is mar
keted, and the sign of ill treatment
shown by dents and dir-colored spots in
the naturally fat body will depreciate its
value two or three cents iier pound
enough to take away a considerable por
tion of the profit. Poultry World.

Women in Wall Street.
The widow of 12. A. Pollard, tho his
torian of tho Southern Confederacy, has
opened in Wall street a broker's office
for tho accommodation of women who
deal in stocks. It is a curious fact that
no woman who has opened a 6tock
speculator's office has, as yet, been per
manently successful. Some, like netty
Green, havo been shrewd outsido buy
ers aud mado money, but so far as 1
! know, those who havo opened regular
offices for stock transactions havo ono
and all lost money and quit tho business.
Perhaps this is, after all, a complinieut.

Wear No .Jewels A round the Neck.
It is considered very bad form to wear
jewels around the neck. Diamond riv
ieres, ropes of pearls or strings of sap-
I phires, rubies and emeralds aro placed
"aiguillette fashion" on tho corsage, de-
pending from the left shoulder. A
