tizni‘ y for women’s
eVeiy day meates some 1c 1-
The incessant demand for 110.31.;
considered, by some people, to be 1‘1?
great evil of modern li e; but it ii.
undoubtedly a blessing to the class of
women who are called "reduced 3-5-11-
tlewomen.’
This is, unfortunately, an everg 1*: ow—
111g class, perhaps because the gentle
woman who now considers herself “re-
duced” would have seemed, a few
years ago, to have, if not a comfor-
table, at least a tolerable existence.
The sudden cessation of luxuries that
comes to many women when the bread
Winners meets with death or disaster
plunges them at once into this body
of reduced gentlewomen, and they be—
gin to look for some way of earning
money to provide if not the luxuries
at least the semblance of them.
The production of staple articles is
in the hands of trained workmen, and
'it is in catering to the fads and cap-
rices of society that the novice finds
her most lucrative field. A modern
mother, who is perhaps a leader of
faddists, has determined to have her
children brought up on the music of
the future. Unable to, find a nurse
‘who is capable of singing Wagner to
‘these unfortunate infants, she employs
a young gentlewoman to cr'oon Wag-
nerian lullabies for the morning nap
and the night’s repose. This might
seem to be a- joke, but it is a serious
determination on the mother’s part,
and it offers an acceptable livelihood
to the singer.
Again, a butterfly of society likes to
have exclusive designs for her gowns;
so she has in her employ a young wo-
man who does nothing but invent love-
ly costumes, making water color
sketches of milady's appearance in dar~
ing color combination and original
shapes and fashions. This employee
was, not many years ago, as well able
to buy gowns as her present employer,
and, if rank in America were depend-
ent upon birth or pedigree, would far
outclass her.
Every one knows the story of the
‘old Indian who said, “I like to see
white girl work,” Perhaps, in the
grands dame’s willingness to employ
her less fortunate sister, there is some
of this aboriginal quality; or perhaps
it is only a gratification of the desire
to patronize—which desire is of course
quite foreign to American ideas ' of
equality, but which, nevertheless, is
latent in every human breast—Puritan.

1 ’ The Art of Praising Our Friends.
No, we do not remember to say nice
things to one another, or rather we do
not make the effort to say those nice
things we are often actually thinking.
It is not that we mean to be grudg-,
ing of our praise, nor are we restrain-
ed by delicacy, but we just do not
think of opening our mouth and un-
closing our teeth on the pleasant
thought that would give Mary un-
deniable pleasure. There, no doubt,
have been times when you yourself
have worn a new gown or made some
conspiCuous effort of one kind or an—
other, and found a friend utterly silent
on the subject—so silent that you
thought she had no good thing to say,
and so kindly held her tongue; then
later (through more thoughtful chan-
nels) trickles to you a warm approval
that she had spoken behind your
back. ' _
Behind—the-back approval is ex-
tremely valuable, more so than before
the face, of course. but somehow it is
never so sweet.
Flattery? It is not flattery to speak
of a true admiration. It is rather a
duty to do so than to refrain. The
use of clean, honest praise is not its
abuse. It costs more effort to speak
pleasant thoughts aloud than to think
them in silence, and when one feels
irritable or tired the, effort is greater
to, thus make one’s self _very pleasant;
but there is no doubt whatever about
the duty in the case.
I: once saw a father walk up to a
map his little boy had made and pin-
ned on the wall. He stood before it a
long time in silence, and in silence
walked away. The little fellow was
sitting in the room, and his father
knew he- was there. He was watch-
ing with his eager child’s eyes, wait-
ing anxiously for a word of approval,
As none came his poor little face fell
unhappily. Straight into the next
room walked the father, and said,
carelessly:
"Robert has drawn a. very clever
little map in there. Look at it when
:you go in.”
“Did you tell him it was clever?”
asked a judicial listener, following
from the room where little Robert still
sat.
“Why, no. I ought to have done so.
I never thought to mention it.”
“‘W'ell, you ought to be ashamed of
yourself,” was the deserved reply.
'f‘Go back now and tell him.”
We ought all of us .to be ashamed
of ourselves a dozen times a day for
like sins of omission. ‘ It costs so little
to say nice things, and the result in
another’s pleasures is out of all pro-
portion to our trouble.
An “Teal Cosmetic Box.
A dear old Quaker lady who was
asked what gave her such a lovely
complexion and what cosmetic she
used replied ,sweetiy: “I use for the
lips, truth; for the voice, prayer; for .
the eyes, pity; for the hands, charity;
1 or the figure, uprightness, and for the
scar-t. love.”
