Several years ago I found myself—a stranger in a strange place—obliged to change help («cause of the poor health of my valued, valuable and well proven Esthor Many candidates for the place appeared, but it seemed that my choice lay, if not between evils, at least tietween undesirables. There seemed to be the fewest outs ui a short state ured, soft voiced colored girL She proved a fairly good cook and laundress, of docile temper, willing to labor and to learn, but almost wholly untraiued. l^eft motherless at an early age, like Topsy she had “growed," picking up bits of household skill as she drifted from one home to another. In this way she had gathered enough wisdom to se cure food, shelter and clothing, but remained a very child in the management of her own affairs Her wardrot»e was of the scantiest. One or two little bundles comprised the whole of it. U hile there was a dearth of underwear, print dresses and good, warm wraps, a poor, old silk skirt, bought of some former mis tress, made an important item of her outfit As the days passed, revealing more fully her utter destitution, my heart sank within me, for 1 read in it uot poverty so much as shiftlessuess.

And then/ Well, the pic ture was without an end unless somebody laid bold of the machinery and changed its working. Why should that somebody not tie D flow should I know 1 was not being priest or Levite if 1 passed this neglected siSter by» It seme j a little bit of missionary work that the Lord bad set down within my doors, and I believe be meant me to do it» bo, doing as to the Lord and for one of his little ones, and remembering that my daughter might have been homeless and in need of mothering, 1 began my work. There was little difficulty in winning Bessie’s con tidence sufficiently to make counsel as to her wardrobe kindly received It was easy to sug.Wst the need of new working gowns and aprons when the suggestion took the form of an offer of help as: “Bessie, if you like to get you a new print dress, 1 will stitch the seams for you." Moreover, she soon found that that was not all, there sure to be help ful hints as to cutting and planning. Then, when she came to that bete noir, the button holes, patient, repeated lessons helped her tc fashion tidy slits, as unlike as possible the ugly ellipses that had done duty in the past. Sometimes, returning from “down town," 1 would say: “Bessie, 1 saw such and such goods of very, very pretty pattern, at low prices, you would find this a good time to buy." Often the res(>onse would be: “1 guess 1 will have some. Would you please get it for me. you gee such pretty things." And so the wardrobe grew, until, in addi tion to the working gear and underwear, there was a pretty jersey jacket, a heavy cloak, a woolen shawl, and a well made black cashmere dress. This latter was a source of special pride as being “my Boston dress,” so called txicau.se it was purchased at the Hub by special commission. As possessions in creased, so did her self respect. The poor girl had evidently fancied that good and abundant clothes were set ajiart tor an order of beings quite remote from her, and with whom she could not expect to have anything m common. Of course there were some drawbacks and discouragements. Sometimes a lew dollars would be expended foolishly for article« more showy than pretty, durable or suitable, or some uice. pretty garment would be worn when about rough and dirty work, to the great detriment of the garment and the dis heartening of the mistress. Sometimes good materials would be “witched" distressingly Again, the seams would be long and numer ous. and the button boles would need atten tion when more pleasant occupations were inviting pursuit. But there was a reward and good cheer in seeing a tidy handmaiden and in listening to the delighted exclamation: “I didn’t think I could ever have anything tike thisl” By and by. another way to partial release for me, and self help for her, suggested itself. This was neither more nor less than the pur chase of a sewing machine. If you have never dealt in second hand machines, you would uever dream what a good one can bo bought for ten dollars. Having occasion to exchange my old machine for one of modefn make. 1 asked the agent if it would be worth Bessie's while to buy mine at the price be offered for it. or could she do better!

What her con dition is today I cannot say. but 1 am very sure that it w both brighter and better be cause of my efforts in her behalf. - Emma Martin Hills in Good Housekeeping. ••Two skilled detectives agree in the theory that the disease known as klep tomania does not exist. ‘When a rich woman steals fifty dollars worth of goods she has kleptomania,’ said one of them, ‘and when a poor woman steals fifty cents’ worth of bread to feed her starving children she is a thief. Show me a pauper with a real bad attack of kleptomania,’ and I will believe that there is such a disease, for, if there is. why should not the poor be as susceptible to it as the rich? My impression at present is that people are born thieves, as they are born musicians or singers—it is a gift, though a deplorable one, and is ac companied by great cunning and «agac- ity. Another fact which disproves tiie kleptomania theory is that never in my experience of many years have any goods been returned or paid for by the friends of people afflicted with this imaginary malady; it is only when dis covered stealing that they and all their friends call them kleptomaniacs. When a woman comes in here and buys a new bonnet and walks off bold with it on her head without paying for it, or takes a waterproof off a figure and puts it on herself before us all. I know she is a victim of mental aberration and treat her accordingly. If, however, there are kleptomaniacs, one of the Care of a Png Dog. best known remedies for them is found A girl who ue»er owned any pugs but who in a police court—it is almost a sure bail a great liking tor tbem offered to take cure.

The best walker 1 ever saw was hopelessly plain of feature—by inheritance—yet the fioujourners in the mountain hotel where she was passing the summer crowded to the win dows to see her cross the lawn or go down the road. Her skirts were of a modest length, just clearing the instep. she wore stout boots that were well fitted and trim; as Rhe trod, she cast the whole weight of her body on the ball of the foot, rising very slightly on the toe. She held herself perfectly erect, yet not stiffly, chest expanded, shoulders down and back; her motion reminded one of the straight flight of a bird, the right onward sweep of a canoe—of all swift and graceful things—never recalling the lounge, or slide, or hitching bounce, or pigeon like perk, that go for walk ing with the bevies of well dressed women one meets every hour on street and road. Watch the tide tumbling and bubbling along the great thoroughfares of our cities on a fine afternoon, if you would falsify and confirm the assertion that not one woman in a thousand uses her lower limbs well, or cares to learn how to e.oploy them in any exercise except dancing.

A Few Economical Hint«. As so many wives hove to economize in every department of their domain, perhaps it may benefit some to know one of their number has learned by actual experience that dumplings, for chickens or other stewed meats, ^re better when made of flour, a little «alt and enough water to make a smooth dough, which should be rolled thin, cut in long strips, aud broken (not cut), in pieces when put in the kettle, than the so called raised dumplings, iu which egg and soda are .sed. Rivels for soup are just as good where made of only flour and water, as when made of Hour and eggs. Enough flour should be used so the rivels will not stick together in sodden lumps, but in fine dry flakes or wafers. A nice, healthful pudding for dessert may be made by putting a layer of stale bread into a saucepan, then n layer of fruit, sugar, more bread, fruit, etc., until the pan is full Then add enough water to moisten all well, sprinkle sugar over top, which should be bread, and t>ake until done. The bread should be browned nicely Serve with cream or rich milk. Sweet corn (dried) is improved by adding twice as much sugar as salt used in cooking it.

It was not given lightly and al most as a matter of course to any applicant. Of late the formality of introduction has been much abused. There is no longer the same caution and discrimination in the tnaL ter. “People will often unthinkingly Introduce to their friends the merest casual acquaint ances, of whose moral and social standing they know absolutely nothing, forgetting that by so doing they are pledging their own honor for their conduct. It is of course prin cipally owing to the easy and matter of course fashion in which introductions aro asked and obtained that adventurers and for tune hunters are able to secure a footing in good society so easily. If proper care were taken to see that those seeking introductions were what they professed to be, the opera tions of these gentry would 1« rendered much more difficult."—New York Mail and Express. Onions for the Complexion. I wish to whisper a little secret, especially to the girls who read The Household col unins. ft is this, girls: If you wish a clear, smooth skin, just eat onions. My sister and I have as fine, fair skins as you often see. We are never troubled by pimples, boils or eruptions of any kind, and this is largely due, our family physician says, to the fact that from infancy we have bad onions once a week and usually oftener When my sister came home from a prim boarding school a few years ago, she declared that onions were a “vulgar food" and she “shouldn't eat any ” But when her faco would shine, and even a liberal supply of powder would not cover up the eruptions then she deci<led they (the onions» were not so very bad after all.
