It is proposed to furnish a clean, pleas
ant room and wholesome board ut 92 a
week, luncheons at 3 conts, and to do
laundry work at about 10 cents a week.
A piano, a library and everything re
quired for comfort and entortainraent
will bo provided. Teachers of sten
ography and dressmaking huvo volun
teered to conduct classes for the benefit
of the boarders. Lectures on various
subjects and weekly classes in physical
culture are projected.
This is on of the grandest of tho
many altruistic efforts with which tho
men and women of our large cities are
often surpassing ub. There is no class
of wage career more deserving of tho
thought and Christian oversight of phil
anthropists than these homeless girls.
Think what such a home-breathing com
fort, culture and safety will mean to
that large class of sweet, earneet girls,
struggling to earn a living from the
world in an honeBt way. May every
large commercial center in our fair land
emulate this example of paternalism
to its employes and may heaven's
richest blessings rest upon tho project
and its projectors.
The Woman's Litorary club of Stan
ton celebrated Washington's birthday
Tuesday afternoon at the home of Mrs.
Klopp. The house was beautifully
decorated in bunting and flags. Inter
esting papers on Washington were read
Ly Mesdames Crane, Underburg, King
and Hodgson. Our flag wbb responded
to by Mrs. Klopp.
The study of Shakspere was con
ducted by Mrs. Crane and the club road
the second act -of Richard II.
A committee of three consisting of
Mesdames .Crane, Heaton and Young
were appointed to preeent to State Rep
resentative Louiso Sraithberger the mat
ter of establishing traveling libraries in
Nebraska and urge upon him that he
use all due and honorable meanB to
secure favorable action and the passage
of house bill 200, which has been intro
duced and recommended for passage in
the present legislature of Nebraska.
The Seward History and Art club met
with Mrs. Carlos Boyes February 18.
The attendance was unusually good and
that always insures an interesting and
instructive session. The first topic, a
paper on Horace Greeley, was given by
Mrs. P. A: Marsh, who is a great ad
mirer of the man who desired to bo re
membered as "the founder of the New
York Tribune." Mrs. Marsh said:
''His life seems like a dream from
pinching poverty to affluence and to the
highest station of intellectual influence.
The object of his life was a Bingle one.
It was the emancipation of labor from
ignorance, vice, servitude, insecurity and
poverty. This was his main theme,
whether bespoke from the platform or
wrote for the Tribune. Greely himself
aid: 'Fame is a vapor; popularity an
accident; riches take wings; the only
certainty is oblivion.' "
General Low Wallace was the subject
of Mrs. M. A. V. Davis' parser and she
made it very interesting, especially when
she gave "How I Camo to Write Ben
Hur", for how groat pooplo do great
thingB will always be items of par
ticular interest. General Wallace,
when asked "to what do you attribute
your success replied, "work," and al
though nearly seventy two years of ago,
he is an inveterate worker apd thinker.
Mrs. D. 0. McKillip led tho history
lesson, subject, "Lincoln's second admin
istration and death." The questions
given the week before were answered by
five minute responses and those "talks"
have been a special feature of the pro
gram for the ertire year. At the close
Mrs. Boyes, assisted by hor daughter,
Miss Myrtle, served dainty refreshments.
Tho following clipping from Wotnnn's
Work, a club magnzino published at
Montgomery, Ala., contains a bit of ad
vico that is good for tho givor as well as
tho rocoivor, which is bo seldom tho cbbo
with adviuo that unpleasant provnrbs
have become connectod with tho word.
Tho quotation is familiar but I cannot
recall tho author:
"Do not koop tho alabaster boxes of
your lovo and tondornoBs soalod up until
your friends aro dead. Fill thoir lives
with swootnees. Speak approving, cheer
ing words whilo thoir oars cun hear
them, and while thoir henrtH tun be
thrilled and mudo happier, tho kind
things you meant to say when thoy nro
gone, Bay boforo thoy go. The flowers
you moan to Bend for their coflins, sond
to brighten ur.d sweeten thoir homes bo
foro they loavo them. If my frionds
havo alabaetor boxes laid away full of
fragrart perfumes of sympathy and
affection, which they intend to break
over my body, I would much rather thoy
would bring thorn out in my weary and
troublod hourB, and open thonijthatl
may bo refreshed and cheerod whilo I
need thorn. I would rathor havo a
plain coffin without a flower, funeral
without an eulogy, than life without tho
sweetness of lovo and and sympathy.
Let ub loam to annoint our frionds bo
forehand for their burial. Pob mortem
kindness does not choor tho burdoned
spirit, Flowers on tho coffin caBt no
fragrance backward over the weary way."
