Chicago Reporter: The most thorough inquiry which has been made on Ameri- can soil into the operation of out relief, was instltuted by the secretary of the Mnssachusetts State Board of charities, 1871, This inquiry gave similar results to those obtained by the English commis- sion in 1834, and to the opinion of many prominent writers since then. On these results was largely based the action of Brooklyn and Philadelphia, the success of which we recounted in our last issue. The conclusions were that the effect of our out-door relief is to increase the amount of pauperism, while the amount of relief also tends to constantly increase; because of the difliculty of securin, proper discrimination by the n%-nls. an their tendency to be governed by worthy motives, the tendency of the recipients to depend on the county and claim relief as their right, and the check to habits ot thrift and providence that this depen- dence causes. The strongest argument, however, in favor of out-door relief is not based on economy. It is that to abandon it would result in hardship to many deserving oor. Those who use this argument ignore two things: First, that by out- door relief all the poor who come under its influence suffer in charter and are dragged down, and, second, that the de- serving poor do not depend alone on public relief, but also on private charity, which 18 a certain and boundless source of help for the worthy. ““The bane of pauper legislation has been the legislating for extreme cases. Every exception, every exception of the eneral rule to meet a case of unusual ardship, lets in a whole class of fraudu- lent cases by which that rule mustin time be destroyed. When cases of real hardship ocour, the remedy must be ap- plied by individual charity, a virtue for which no system of eompu‘wry relief can or ought to be a substitute.” e ““Woman'’s Work 18 Never Dome.” London Graphic: Feminine industries of the world are to be extensively repre- sented at the Glasgow exhibition next year. There will be & special women's section, as the laay presidents want to show exactly what share woman bear in the manufactures of the present time. Not only needlework is to be exhibited, but such mechanical branches as leather dressing, bookbinding, ing-tackle manufacture, glovemaking and the like, rative industries, including carving, brasswork, pain and engraving, will find a place, as well as female hygienio alathing. SOME THINCS ABOUT WOMEN Mormon Girld and Their Growing Objece tions to Polygamy. MME. PATTU'S KINDLY DEED: Woman's Savings—A HRemarkable Emprese—~A Woman's Oattle Compesy — A Baseball Player's Wife, Sammer Loves. ‘Woman should not love vnbidden; ‘oman’s heart should wait for winning, Woman's fondness should be hidden— Lack of pride is almost sinning. Let him linger daily near thee; Let him ut vow he loves thee, ‘Tho’ thou whisper he will hear thee, Let not his passion move thee. Let him think thy song the swectest, 1.et him call thy name the dearest, And th{ little foot the neatest— ‘Till his ardor quite thou fearest. Let him praise thy sweetest bonnet, And the dainty head it graces; ‘Touch perhaps the flower upon it, 5 And admire thy fav'rite laces. Let bim speak of life as growing & Worthier, nobler, since he knew thee: But beware—there is no knowing In what light he'll shortly view thee. In the spring love goes a-Maying; But, oh foolish matd ! remember, Summer loves, it i3 the saying, Often die before December. Patti's Kindness to a Poor Woman, Pall Mall Gazette: Mme, Patti's kindly deeds for the poor who live in the neigh- borhood of her castle in Wales have often been spoken of. Our correspond- ent there sendsus the following story about the great prima dona. It comes from the rural district of Ystradgynlais, in which is situated the Weleh seat of Mme. Patti, Craigynos castle: An ar- tisan who was out of employment was making his way from Brecon to Swansea in search of work, accompanied by his wife and their child, eighteen months old. They had lost their way and tramped all night over a mountain, and, having passed Craigynos some short distance, the woman sank exhausted by the wayside. Presently Mme. Patti drove up in her carriage, and finding the woman in a helpless condition had her at once conveyed to the castle. Shortl, after her arrival the woman gave birt to a boy, aud the report states that both mother and child are duinf well at the castle, and that it is intended to christen the child with an appropriate name in remembrance of the cecasion. ‘Women's Savings. A writer in Cassell’s Magazine troats of an_interesting subject interestingly as follows: Expericnce shows that of the women who.do#ave a large number lose their little stores. This chitfly by invest- ing them in conéerns which promise large interest. ltfcannot be too often repeated that large interdst means risk. No com- pany would go about offering high inter- est if it could get the money 1t needed for less, and thote are 8o many prople with money to invest that any safe concern can get as much @s it wants at a low rate. Even if ;the! fifmul promises of bubble companies dould be realized your inter- est would probably be gained by oppres- sing others. 7' But they seldom or never are realized/and it is'a well-known fact a very large proportion of their victims are women ‘Wwhé,! ignorant of business and weary of the lengthy process of add ing little by-little ‘to their savings, hope to become rich'aTl at once, and so grasp at the shadow W'find that they have lost the substance. Again, do not be too kind to your re- lations. 1 do not say that you should be selfish or mean, but only prudent. Be- fore lending money to be used in their business see that the business is a safe one; you may have the fullest confidence in the honestintentions of the borrower, but make sure that his capability is also to be depended upon. Many teachers give their savings to help to educate their brothers. Here too, charity should be guided by prudence. 1t is no true kindness to help astupid boy to a univer- sity education; you had much better help him in some other way. It is 2lso bad for him to be allowed to take your sav- ngs without any recompense. - In most cases you had better lend than give, the knowledge that he must repay what he now spends vut of his future "earnings will help to keep him from extravugance. The Honesty of Women. Harper's Bazar: Women are being employed more and more as bookkeepers and cashiers, and one avowed ground of this employment is_that they are more honest than men. Unquestionably they are 80 up to this time, and it is probable that they will have some permanent ad- vantage in that way. Their normal in- stincts are somewhat higher aud their temptations less on the side of perilous indulgences. But 1t has been pointed out more than once by the mbre cautious friends of women that a good deal of the present moral advantages of that sex in matters of honesty comes simply from inexperience. They have hitherto had so little to do with the direct handling of money that they regard it with more reverence than men; the bare thought of an irre larity alarms them; the conscience is wholly fresh. and sensitive; they eannot concelve how a person ecan wrong another out of a dime and live. More- over, they overrate the dmliculties and perils consequent on wrong-doing. A young bookkeeper told me once that whenever her accounts failed to balance, if it were only by a single cent, she felt a8 if a policeman were just coming in at the door. Itisas we tind to be the case with lending money—any prudent per- son would rather lend to a woman than to & man, because he knows that the chance of repayment is greater. In the present state of society a debt of 3 seems a tremendous affair to & woman and a very small affairto a man; but let that woman borrow:and repay a few times and the fine edge of sensibility begins to wear off, precisaly as it does with a man, but more slowly. 1 ¥ A Remarkable Empress. Hong Kong Times: The empress re- gent of Chi is one of the most re- markable women of the age. Not content with directirfiz the intrieate policy of the most popufous empire in the world with wonderhl ‘¢leverness and sagacity, she has now éntered the ranks of compe- titors for thd1ight-weight championship of the celestial gmpire. Attired in a sort of bloomer dastime, she takes daily les- sons in boxing from an old eunuch. ~ Her appearance 4t the age of fifty, in short costume, hitting out at her venerable preoen!or and ' occasionally receiving runh ment hefself, must be comieal to he last degree, and the reports on the matter form the subject of a most dis- respectful merriment on the part of the almond-eyed denizens of the Chinese metropolis, The empress regent was a concubine of the emperor Hein Fung, on whose death she was appointed to act as cwr:fam with the dowager empress dur- ing the mnorty ot her son, the late Em- peror Tung Chi. When the latter died, a few months after his marriage, one of those curious intrigues, which ‘make the history of origental courts, took place His young bride, who was enciente at the time of the young monarch’s death, died mysteriously before the birth of her child, and the old Dowager empress and core{«n! took her departure for another world rather suddenly a few days after- wards, leaving the present empress In undisputed possession of power. With unusual ability she has guided the policy of the empire through the troublous times which have resulted from the open- ing up of the country to foreign trade, and has so conducted affairs as to have brought the nation to an indefinitely higher degree of prosperitv and tran- b nllll_\; than it enjoyed when she took up 0 reins. A Ball Player's Wife. St. Paul Globe: Frequenters of the ball park have nearly all had their attention directed ton young lady who isa very reg- ular attendant. e generally takes the special train and is passed without ques- tion by the gate keepers at the main stand. She never looks to the right or loft, and gives her undivided attention to the game, scoring In a little book with & neatly pointed pencil. For a time she was unknown, and everybody wondered who was the modest little lady, with the soft gray eyes, dark hair and brilliant color, who never lost her lady-like bear- iugd and was always dressed handsomel, and yet in perfect taste. It finally leake: out that she was the wife of one of the {:lyorl. and came from New England to near her lh-Fn lord, to applaud when he makes hard hits and circus catches, or sympathize and encourage when he com- mits errors or fouls out. She knows all of the iine points of the game and misses more. The acute observer can tell by her face when her lord and master comes to the bat, and can see her ayes brighten and her teeth gleam when he rapsout a three-bagger, or can seo fthe delicate color creep up in her cheeks and her oyes drop when he fumbles a hot grounder. One Way a Girl Gains Piquancy. Pittsburg Dispatch: “Oh! if I were only a man,” Then she tossed her head, tightly closed her ruby lips and nervousl patted her shapely foot on the senseless pavement. She looked so beautiful that the only man who heard her remark de- voutly thanked heaven that she was a woman, No man living can look as pretty as she did at that moment, nor pat his foot as significantly, nor get as much expression in his lips. Were he to be. come as_impatient as she was, he would swear right out and kick around ata great rate, You see he is not built on the » plan, and is not under so great ro- straiut as she is; therefore he acts differ- ently. A Brilliant American Artist. Boston Globe: Miss Lounisa Lawson, a young Ameri lady, & native of Cin- cinnati, is achieving fame i italy. There is now on exhibition at Tiffany’s, in New York, a highly interesting work of hers in marble. "It is called “The Rhodian Boy." The story of the representation is Iaid in Rhodas, and the martle breaths the spirit of that graceful cradle of art. Miss Lawson, although educated in Italy reveals loss of the Italic than of the Greek school in this figure of the Rhodian boy. Before taking the ehisel in hand, Miss Lawson has evidently taken pains thoronghly to imbue herself with the spirit of her subjoct, wnd the full spell of that seagirt island of flowers was upon her when she first dressed the marbel. The legend which the marble 1llustrates is that of the ancient Rhodian supersti- tion that the swallow meant weal or woe to the husbandman. On a certain festive day it was customary for Rhodian boys to o tothe homes of the citizens, and especially the wealthy, swallow in hand, and demand gifts in the name of the bird, in order to insure a fruitful harvest. A similar custom exists in Scotland s present day under the name of ‘‘Hog- monay,” and the respective ballads in use at such festivals are not dissimilar. Miss Lawson began her art studies in her native city, Cincinnati, and pursued them in Boston, New York and Paris. On the advice of Rhodla, the sculptor of Paris, she went to Italy in 1834, The academy of artat Perugia has honored her highly, and her atelier in Rome is visited by people, especially artists of world-wide celebrity. Mormon Girls and Polygamy. Sart Lake Ciry, August 25.—There are plenty of pretty girls here. They are ‘Mormon girls, too. Some of them are married. A few are in polyzamy, and have husbands old enough to be their great-grandfathers—white-haired, long- bearded and round-shouldered lords and masters who have covenanted to love, honor and cherish a halt dozen wives at a time. There are others who are mar- ried to young Mormon gentlemen, and who will not listen to the augxfeslion of nolygn.my. Their husbands will say they now and believe that the principle is right,but all the same one wife is enough for them. They say this because they are aware that if they wanted to take another wife the pretty companions they now have would tear out their hair by the roots. I was introduced the other night to one of Brigham Young's daughters, Sheis a charming brunette, educated and accomplished, and, although a Mor- mon as far as religious_ convictions are concerned, she 1s not ignorant of the fact that she had sixtecen mothers when her own father died, and she does not believe there was anything wrong in this plurality of mothers, ot she will not even let her husband talk of polygamy. You should see her dark eyes snap and the determined expression that 1s forced into her red 1ips when anybody su'g%:ms that her Charlie may any one of these fine days bring home a second Mrs. Wife. “‘Just let him try it once,” she re- marked, patting a small foot on the tloor; “just let him bring her home,” And her husband is the son of a Mor- mon bishop, too, The father has seven wives and thirty-six children, and he has served a term in the Utah penitentiary under the Edmunds-Tucker act. Brig- ham's daughter is not the only young wife here who 18 stubbornly opposed to polygamy. You hear from every side statements concerning young women re- lated to all sorts of Mormon dignitaries who make it a condition when they ace- ept the husband that these laiter must renonnce, at least as far as its practice is concerned, the dotrine of plural mar- riage. And you hear Mormon girls of marriageahle age denounce the system, If they belong to polygamic families they do not hesitate to speak of the misery and sorrow that dwell 1n two and three and four-wife homes. They de- nounce the system, and many of them, rather than run the chsnce of being dragged into polygamy, seek their beaux and lovers among the gentile young men of the community. A Fortunate Feminine Speculator. Woodland, Cal : Quite an interesting story is being told here, A few weeks ohn Hoppin and his wife, who re- in Woodland, were sojourning in Los Angeles, While taking & walk one evening with some friends, Mrs, Hoppin picked up a twenty-dollar 'piece. She is a shrewd business woman and had been importuning her husband to let her speculate *‘just a little,”” but with cau- tious intuition he had advised her not to make the venture. Having found this twenty-dollar piece, she regarded it as an omen of good luck, and went the same evening to a real estate agent with whcm she had been talking, and gave him the $20 as part payment on ten acres of land, at the same time telling the agent to sell at an advance of $75 per acre. In two or three days the agent went to her with the information that he had a purchaser for her land at that price. The money was paid, She realized a ulear $750 from the $20. From the same agent she purchased another ten acres on the same conditions, paying the necessary forfeit. Ina few aays the agent came again and informed her that he had found a purchaser at an advance of §50 per acre. . At the instance of her husband she accepted the price, realizing another gain of $500, and in all $1,250 on the $20 which she found.

We find this axiom verified in our dealings with our patients, Though wo lay claim to an ordinary dogree of honesty from principle, wo cannot oxpect the public to place implicit confidonce in'onr claims, did we not presont thom ‘from a point of view where self interest dictated our conrse to be honest as the hest moans of succes PATIENTS RUN NO RISK OF BEING DECEIVED BY US, Because wo cannot afford to bo dishionost with them.

In this ugo of nowspapers and rapid transmission of every dogoription of nows, ous name would soon bo a byword, and the public wouid shun us, were we, in any way, to practice decoption on any of our patients. On the other hand, if we prove our honesty by dealings with all with whom we come f contaot, we oxtond our reputation and with it our practice. The value of an untarnished name toa businoss man, is of value veyond caloulation: we have nlways ens joyed such aone and will always strivo to maintain it. Patients run no risk of being deceved by us, because we have not establishod this Intirmary for 4 week or a month, but we have made one of the permanent plants of Omaha, and have come to stny.
