And Still Missing.

The Harlem woman who goes in for the higher art has a miniature Venus de Milo standing on the piano, just to show the casual caller that she's vise to what’s what. This woman has the Venus and she also has a new hired girl, who comes from furrin shores. In dusting the piano the other morning, while her mistress was out doing the marketing, the girl bowled •ver the Venus. She picked it up, picked up also a chip or two and then began to weep. When the mistress arrived home an hour or so later she found the girl on her knees peering under and be hind the piano and looking in various other directions, all of which suggested that she might be searching for something. “What is the ma tetr?" asked the mistress of the home tn surprise. “Oh, I knocked over that statchoo,” lamented the girl, pointing to Venus. “But it doesn’t seem to have damaged it any.” “Tes, it did,” Insisted the girl, al most tearfully. “It broke off both arms, ma’am, and I haven’t been able to find them."
