HAD A REASON.

We have just heard about » Lakewood lady who advertised for a girl to do general housework and got a jewel of a personal reply. The young woman who answered the ad was strong, capable, intelligent, neat and possessed of training for the position. “You’ll do!” cried the lady of the house, happily. “Now let’s see your references." “Ay ent got no reffrensus, mum,” •confessed Hilda. “Ay ban tore, ’em up." "What? Tore them up? Why, you must have been mad!” "Ay was, ven ay saw ’em. Dot's vy ay ban tore ’em up!”
