"In Paris, as in London, and in fact in every great city, the people ivho patronize the night refuges are of every occupation and almost of every class," sa3 the London News. "One refuge received in the year 980 work women, 750 chambermaids, and after that, in their order, cooks, general servants, governesses (these sent only a contingent of twenty), lady com' panions (five), and ' persons for merly having money in the funds' (two) this out of a total of nearly 3,500 picked up and cared for in the one asylum alone. This establish ment belongs to an association of a mixed religious and philanthropic character. Then comes the Societe Philanthropique, which is purely re ligious, and which opens refuges for women under the management of the Sisters of Charity. This is called the 'work of the hospitality of labor,' and its most considerable establish ment, or, perhaps, the only one at present, is a house opened atAnteuil at the beginning of this year. Al though the police find none of the money, they cannot exactly keep their hands but of the management, and they insist on having a register kept, just as though the place were an ordinary lodging-house. How ever, this is not allowed to become an ovcuse for a too searching inqui sition. The applicants for admission give j- what answers they like, and wi.jit answers they sometimes do give ilaxime du Champ will tell us. Many of them have nothing but soubriquets, or do not choose to have any other. 'What is your name?' They call me La Chiffon nette." 'That is not a name.' ' Well, I have no other name.' 'What is your family name?' 'I don't know.' 'Where is your father? Where is your mother?' 'I don't know.' 'Did you ever know them?' 'Never.' 'Who takes care of you?' 'Nobody.' 'Where do you live?' 'Nowhere.' In one case a young girl was asked : 'Did 3'ou ever hear of any one sneak of God?' 'God?' she said, 'on, yes, an old man with a long beard.' The ar rangements here at Autenil are of the simplest. There is & big reception-room, with benches and tables, and with a few religious pictures for its sole ornament; a bath-room be yond, and a disinfecting chamber for clothing, with a wardrobe of cast-off clothes given by the charitable to supply some of the miserable creat ures with a new outfit. The rags, once off, are often quite unfit to put on again, and, in fact, cannot be put on. Some of the inmates look on the bath as quite a penal infliction, or refuse to take it because they are 'not ill.' But, as in the English cas ual wards, all are tubbed remorse lessly, whether they like it or not. A good deal of delicacy is shown in dealing with some of the applicants. Whatever their ago or status, they are all termed 'madame,' a title in tended to cover every trace of irreg ularity in their past life. To call some mademoiselle might lead to awkward revelations when, as it often happens, they bring their babies with them. Tho Sisters go even fur ther, and when a mother is unpro vided with tho marriage ring they give her one of brass, so as to put her, as far as appearances go, on a footing with the best in this hetero genous societj. The house at Au tcuil is more than a temporary ref uge. Those who most need it are allowed to stay there for some time, and many have won their way back into decent positions by the help given them in this way. This is in tended to meet a supposed defect of some of the asylums, where the wretched inmates are remorselessly turned out in the morning, no matter what their needs, and many of them to certain and obvious starvation. Of the 3,500 women received at Au teuil in one year, over 1,700 found their way back to modest comfort under this arrangement." Griuit ami the Frightened Officer. An old army officer told me how General Grant once revived the flag ging courage of one of his staff offi cers. The latter, when he was first assigned to duty under Grant, had never been in any serious engage ment. Almost the first day that he reported to Grant he was placed un der a fire of the hottest and most severe kind. The screaming of the balls, tho roaring of the cannon, and the sharp crack and rattle of the musketry, thoroughly demoralized him. He became absolutely sick and paralyzed with fear. He was so v. eak from nervous excitement that he lost physical control over himself. Grant came up at tho very climax of his fright, ana noticing his pale face, his blue lips and chattering teeth, he said: "Captain, you are frightened. That is natural enough. You will get over it. Suppose," continued Grant, "I should come to you with a hat containing ninety-nine white beans and one black one.andl should ask you to thrust your hand into the hat at a venture and pick out the black bean, do you think your chance of getting that black bean would be very good? Well, your chance for being hit under this fire is no greater than your chance for drawing the black bean." This officer at once took heart, and from then on he never showed the slightest sign of fear. " Denpin suggar" is a "Western term for kissing. j Very rash A boy with measle3. t-une.

Though they had a cough, felt pains in the lungs were depressed, weak, with many other symytoms tending to that disease, yet these -j rautoms were all offsprings of a torpid and diseased liver.

Sot a Single Gray U&Ir. "You may laugh and think mo a vain thing." writes Mrs. .T. R.
