No, this perfect servant will never do for you. Geta jolly Irishwoman, or a comfortable, fat, southern black aunty, who can understand that you keep house to live and do not live to keep house. The matron whose family love to live well spends half a day at a bureau to engage at last a mild, milk-and-water sort of a female, with a small chin and no mouth to speak of, who in reply to every affable question utters the same “Lve no choice, ma'am.” Why, Heaven knows, forty years of experience ought to have taught her that a woman like that always serves meats half cooked and barely warm, steeps her coffee, water-soaks her vege- tables, sends up her puddings in a liquid condition and tlavorless, is incap- able of getting up a good fire or giving a comfortable effect to a room that she arranges, of opening a door widely tc admit a guest or quite shutting one on any occasion; that while she dominates the kitchen the household will feel half starved and wholy wretched Meanwhile a sensitive person, with strong feelings on the subject of gravies and original ideas as to salads and sauces, has been uged by a lady who keeps her family on short rations, principally of bread and smoked beef, while the timid elderly spinster in glasses has been so far left to herself astotake home with her to her little flat an immense, red-haired fury, with blood-shot eyes and an evident bottle in her pocket, and Mrs. MeGillicuddy, who boasts of quelling commotions in her kitchen by such heroic means as the throwing of pudding-pans and flat- irons, captures u meek, cross-eyed woman, who mentions that she left her last place because after seeing a ghost in the cellar she ‘‘wouldn't go down for coals never no more, nor if it was ever But all these women, having eyes, saw not, and blindly selected a servant as froma grab-bag at a fair, matter might have been one of sensi- ble and well-advised choice, and the contract a tolerably permanent one in consequence.—Mary Kyle Dallas, in N.

Joe got it, and his slayer will be acquitted on the ground of self-defense. Joe himself had been acquitted on no better grounds several times. The only man who ever was too quick for Joe Dye before this magical event was Petroleum Scoté, the old Ventura oil man, a tall, wiry, nervous chap, who would be the terror of sten- ographers if he were a public speaker. w Phillips Brooks is a leisurely drawler compared to Scott. Scott and Dye had a legal contest over an oil claim on the Sespe, and while the case was pending Scott prudently avoided discussing it with Joe, whose temper and trigger fing “ to act in concert. One day Scott and Dye met in a Si ta Paula saloon, and sitting down at a table together, clinked glasses and chatted about things in general. Scott carefully abstained from talking about oil claims, but finally broached the nd made some statement about rds that were not correct.
