Hta Valuable Time U ntied.
A Chicago lady who is the wife of a '
wealthy and influential citizen he I a ,
great deal of trouble recently with licr 1
domestics. She had discharged lior
cook and second girl and for a few
days was obliged to do her own ceasing.
It was on one of those mornings that :
a peremptory knock sounded <:;i the '
kitchen door. She wiped her hands
on the apron and found at the door a
low browed, insolent lookiug man, with
n cm oil ontrthnl ?- ? ? *
? uiig uvur uis snoilider.
"Go and tell your mistress I want to
see her, Bridget," he said, with a
wave of the hand. Mndam surveyed
him in silence a moment and then replied
stiffly, "1 don't choose to."
"Oh, you don't, eh? Well, now, trot
along, my dear, or I'll have you llred,"
be returned, with n vicious glance.
Mrs. Blank was "backing within. To
be so insulted on her own doors .ep was
such a heinous crime that her resources
failed her. But in a moment she hit
upon a plan that would bring tills
piece of Insolence to abject humility.
Drawing her stately figure up to'tl^e
full and firing on hlin a gaze of imperious
disdain, she said in measured,
frigid tones, "I am the lady of the
house."
Did he quail? Oh, ho!
"Are you?" he rejoined quickly.
"Why didn't you say so and not keep
toe waiting all this time? I got some
soap here that you want, and"?
He was storing at the door while the
- brfng echoed out over ids shoulders In

"entirely natural, Is sometimes Irritat- ,

tilth a special passbook In which a full
description of her appearance must be
entered?
This description of the German maidservant
is entered by the police of her
native district and Is sometimes dictated
more by candor than chivalry.
The color of the eyes and hair and the
fiMfipe of the nose are all duly chronicled,
and If the constable Is of opinion
that any of those features are
''ugly" he has no hesitation in sny'

Dolntc Penance For Sine.
Ih former times persons guilty of
' grievous and notorious offenses were
Vraq.nlred to make open confession and,
further, to make satisfaction for the
scandal given by their bad example by
,*|9ing penance publicly in a white sheet
4in their parish church. The sheet was
.'used to show clearly to every one
?lfl>lch was the offender.
.. The last time that public penance
.-was done in an English church was
'qjs Sunday evening, July 30, 1882, when
,g mac named Ilnrtree, In the church of
Ail Saints, East Clcvedon, made an
open confession of immorality and
promised to perform the penance thus
Imposed on him by the vicar.
No white sheet was used on this occasion.
The last case in which one
was used appears to have been one in
St. Bridget's church. Chester, in 1851.
But on that occasion the penance was
not public, the church deer being
locked.
In the previous year, however, public
penance !n a white sheet was done
In a country church in Essex, and a
similar thing occurred in Ditton church
near Cambridge in 1849.?Stray Stories.

One warm midsummer day Steve
found himself seated under the old
Baldwiu apple tree, with the half hull

| Old Mr. B., busy with the other half,

about his new job, how many cigars he

what he paid for his fine clothes. Presently
lie wanted to know what they
called bis boy on the road?conductor,

"That's a mighty big name, Steve."
"Yes, father; it's rather a big job,
too, for me."
"But ye don't do It all, Steve. Ye
must have hands to help you load and
unload?"
"Oh, yes, I have a lot of help!"
"And the company pays them all?"
"Yes."
"How much do they pay you. Steve?

The Inquisitive Dnmael.
A girl who took up photography not
long ago and endeavored to get some
| valuable snap shots had bad luck with
[ her llrst pictures. There were funny
I streaks of white all through them
I when there was any picture nt all, and
I she couldn't imagine how they came
i there. Neither could au experienced
| amateur who assisted In developing
; her first negatives and who* took the
1 usunl precautions lu loading the camI
era and taking the plates.
"1 can't imagine what is the matter,"
ho said as plate after plate came
out either good for nothing or with
only a little of the picture visible.
"Those ought to have been good
plates."
"Neither can I," said the girl. "They
looked all nice and smooth and white If
that Is the way they ought to look."
"Looked all right!" exclaimed her Instructor
iu dismay. "You hadn't look
| od at tliein before we put them in the
camera, had you?"
"Oh, not enough to hurt tliem!" said
the girl. "1 just lifted up the lilaek
paper from each plate Just the littlest

the temptation of seeing how nice
they looked and think of the lovely
pictures I was going to have on them."

a depth that passengers, both horse
and (<A>t, passed over gates, hedges and
