POPULATION OF LINCOLN, 63,000. THE SHUT-IN SOCIETY A UNIQUE AND HELPFUL ORGAN IZATION FOR INVALIDS. A nriiinrknlile Work Tlint Is llrlng Itoii by tflifcirllinntesi Mint of Wliutn Arn Women, to Aid Out Amitlipr Various llrmirlirs of thit (lood Work. Fifteen yunrs ngo Mist Jennie M. Drink water, now Mr. Couklln, of Madison, N. .1., was shut in her room by n long mid serious Illness. Tliim hung heavily on her hntuls, nud she conceived mi idea no sim ple, mid yet so obviously full of common sense, tlint the wonder Is that some onu bad not t bought of It Ioiik before, 8hu en tered Into n correspondence with another Invalid personally unknown to her, In order that they might bu mutually cheered nud entertained, ThU wiih tho origin of Unit rcmnrknhlourgaiiizntlonof Invalids known as tho Shut-in hoclety, which has 11 membership of many thousands in every country of tho clvili7ed world. The corrtK)iulciicu to modestly begun proved io pleasant that It wiih extended to other Invalids, until In 1SJM tho correspond ents organized themselves Into tlio Shut In society, mid tho next year tho society was incorporated under tho laws of tho state of Ncw York, with Mm. Couklln as president. Of course tlio primary qunlltl cation for admission Is Illness. "To be n ulTcrur shut in from the outside world constitutes ono a proper caudldiitu for membership lu this society," nays tlio con stitution. Hut there Is n clinracter (nulli fication also, mid all applicants for mem bership must "(tend with their application, it possible, tho nanio of their pastor or their physician, or of some associate mem ber of tho society, as an Introduction." Tho associate members nro not Invalids, but "being in tender aymputhy with the ufferlug, volunteer In this ministry of lovu." Koch associate tnemler volunteers to correspond with members In a certain assigned district and Is expected to sub scrllu) nt least ono dollar a year. alio society Is mnuaged by an advisory board composed of associate inemliers. A might naturally lie expected, tho society Is largely. composed of women. There Is a Bmn's department, however, under the direction of Mr. Will S. Mather, of Chi cago. There is u nourishing children's de partment, the members of which nro pop ularly known as the "sunshine makers." It la under the direction of Miss G. L. Lewis, of Uoston, and Miss Joslo A. Jones and Miss Abbie A. Miller, of Dorchester, Mass. There Is also n department of children associate members, which havo formed themselves into n baud called tho Little Cup Dearer to tho King. It is composed of boys aud girls from six to nineteen years of ago, who pledge themselves to carry sympathy and comfort to somolittlu suf ferer. It is found that children cuter Into this work with great enthusiasm, and the llttlo cup bearers have helped many a poor and weary sufferer to become a sunshine maker. Another department of tho society Is the wueelclialr committee, of which Miss C O. Ross, of Newark, 1. J., is (tho active manager. Its object Is toallovlatethocon dltton of the shut in members by furnish ing them, when possible, with a wheel, chair. When a wheelchair Invalid dies, a little sliver pinto Is fastened on the back of the chair inscribed, "To the memory of ," and it Is aent back to the committee, to bo used by soma other mem ber. Tho King's Daughters are interested In the wheelchair work, and In fact a num ber of circles of King's Daughters havo been formed among members of tho Shut in society. Many of the members them selves work for tho wheelchair committee. Tho library of the society Is one of lu Important, features. Hooks, magazines and papers are freely sent to invalids in every statu in tho Union, as well as to many loreiKU countries, in l'hllauelpula a Pass-It-Alotig club has been formed, which circulates periodicals nmonir Invalids. Tho Open Window is the name of tho excellent monthly publication Issued by the society. It Is an interesting fact that a mission ary spirit has been developed In tills so ciety, although its member might well bo excused it they thought only of them selves. There is an "Invalid's auxiliary," which is now supporting a native nurse lu tho Margaret Williamson hosnltal at Shanghai, China, and Is also raising u fund to endow a bed In the same hospital, to be Known as the "Stiut-lu society's bed." Another branch of missionary work douo by the society Is the writing of letters to prisoners. About 1,700 letters havo been sent to Sing Sing alone. They are sent tin addressed to the chaplain, who addresses them personally to tho convicts. The namo mid address of tho writer are not, however. given to tho convict. It Is the testimony of the chaplain that these letters have done much good. Tho letters written by invalids toother invalids havo resulted in mauy warm friendships, and the term "letti r friend" has become a recognised phrase lu the society. The organization of the society has brought out the fact that a surpris ingly large number of Invalids have lieeu "shut in" for a long term of years, many for twenty-five or thirty years. Ono mem ber of the society, who died last year, bad been couflned to her bed for sixty years. The condition of such long term patients Is apt to become very desolate, as their tarly friends die or drop away aud they ere made to feel that they are a burden on those who are charged with their care. To Mich Invalids the society come as a blessed boon, for it not only puts them la direct communication with mauy fellow sufferers and sympathetic friends, but the vaiious Interests of the society give them something to think of, and thus break the dreary monotony of their lives. One of the best known members ot'the society I Miss Jennie Cnsseday, of Louis ville, who has lieen confined to her room for twenty-five years. She has acquired a widespread reputation as the founder aud national president of the Flower mission. -Ncw York Trlbuue. LITEIfflTURLte "I'iny You, Mr, Whoso Daughter!" Is the striking title of a now story by Helen II Oardener. The story deals largely with three American (lirls. Gertrude Foster being tholierolnn nud typing 1110H splendidly what the author conceives to lie tho robust, nohln femininity of t becoming woman. This story Is by far the most finished work from the pen of this brilliant woman, and although It ileal Herculean blows at tho "Ago of Con sent Laws," and necessarily touches iik)ii del Icate subjects, uowketo will the sensibilities of any healthy Imagination lie offended, Weeral riltles that have read this work pre dict that It will prove, tho "Undo Tom's Cabin" of the "Itcd lllblou" or "Modal I'm Ity" crusade.

"The Successful Novel of Fl'ty-slx Years Ago, owi'-sioe llohlnnon," a work that has been out of print for forty or more years, Is brought into fresh notice through n brief summary of the exciting story. There is an appreciative sketch of the late Professor Tlieadoro V. Dwlght, and an account of the great Christian Kndeuvor meeting lu New York City. Kadi of tho departments this month are admirably filled. I I I With the number for August The Kuril m finishes its thirteenth volume. Among the leading topics of this number are: "Shall the Southern Question bo Revived!" under w hlch nro grouped two articles "Tho Uu parallelled Industrial Progress of tho South" by Richard H. Edmunds, the lato editor of tho JfifimiWrdti-fra' Itrcont of Baltimore, nud "The Disastrous Effects of a Forco Hill " by Hoko Smith, chairman of tho school Ixiird of Atlanta (leorgla, and chief owner of the Atlanta Journal. Other article of a ollt leal kind are: "Tho Folly of the Free Coin- ago Agitation," and "Tho Necessity of the Ret eal of the Sherman Silver Act of 1890." by, Louis Wiudmuller, u widely known mer chant of New York. There are two studies In practical religion one a description of the singularly successful Industrial establish ment of the Messrs. Hariuel, in France, which may fairly le called "an example of organ ized thrift," the motive of which is largely religious, nud "The Divergence of the Preach ers and the Lnttor Ieaders." Mr. II. L. Gar ner who ha gone to Africa to continue Ids Investigations Into the origin of speech by studying the language of native tribes and of wlhl apes, writes a summary of the sclentiflo lesults that helms obtained by the study of language with the help of tho phonograph.

Of the fiction, Harry James, "Jersey Villas" makes delightful mid summer reading and there is an odd story of (Southern Lire, while Curiosities of Musical Literature will furnish a half-hour's enter tainment for every lover of music. The one heavy article of the number Is that of the famous English writer on Evolution, St. Geoige Mlvart one of the most important series of paiwrs ever produced In a Magazine, and attracting the widest attention among religious and scientific minds, both In Eng land aud this country. Hi The Ilacon-Sliakespeare controversy which opened in the July liviia is attracting gen eral interest among lovers of Shakespearean literature.

Mitchell, Dr. Julia Holmes Smith, Mary E. Boyce, Louise Chan dler Moulton and Mary A. Livermore. I I I St. Nicholas Magazine has been getting suggestions from Its renders as to a nntionsl soug. "Tho Star-Spanglo 1 Banner" seems to have the strongest existing claim to that honor, but one young person, who objects to the words but thinks well of the music, makes the novel proposition to lit the words of "My Country 'lis of Thee" to tho muilc of "The Star Spangled Banner." The editor of 67. Kicholat suggest! that she seek out some quiet place anl try the effect of mixing the two very cautiously. Ill The August iVfmon opens witli two very fine engravings, both nttistic gems. Gilberta 8. Whittle's ai tide, "Some Noted Washing ton Women," will attract much attuitlou. It gives excellent photogravures of Mrs Lieutenant Mason, Miss Kato Deerlng, Miss Mattle Thompson and various other society Mis, "A Country Wedding" by Dama II. Htm ens Is not only n pretty description but gives many valuable suggestions. "Ivory Work" describes the newest fad In embroi dery and the directions for doing it are ren denil still clearer by good illustrations. "Dorothy's Devices," by Mlua Irving, will bo worth rending, "Uses for Odds and Ends," by Cornelia Redmond, shows a fer tility of resource amounting to genius.
