AND HOME.

Help*, lUmi, Pirazrapht.

%'r A* [Chicago News Rambler.] I feel a great pity for city children. By •tty children I do not mean generally the children of a city, although they, too, miss great deal ani are nlo to bo pitfod, but I refer rather to thomanii of little ones who live with their parents la the bminess portion. O/ton their parents have charge of the huge building in which they make their borne. If you will east your oye to the upper stories of eoma of the tower-like struct* ares on the busy down-town streets you will see clean diminity or neat chintz curtain* adorning the window*, in vivid contrast with the uncurtained, unkept. and grimy sash of the stories below. Mayhap the window ledge will bold a narrow wooden box containing a few mo* ro.ej, or else a few pots will hold to the welcoming sun or the smoke-tainted breeze a few ovber hardy flower*

Owners of business blocks, like to the persons they give them in charge ot, live on the premise*, and so the janitor and his family are assigned to apartments in the tipper story. Often these quarter are made

oosy and pleasant by a neat and methodical wife, but oftener still they are rendered more bare and miserable than their uninteresting surroundings. It is the children of such families that I feel sorry for. Their hardworking parent* are busy all day, and the little ones are left to amuse themselves. But howf Tbey have no playmates for, likely enough, there may not be a family similarly situated within two or threl blocks, and tbey are afraid to trust them selves so far away from their door. They clamber down five or six flights of great, wide stain, thronged with busy men with the eager glare of speculation and competition in their eyes, and reach the still more thronged sidewalk.

Poor little things! Tbey have never had a playmate who could teach them a game such as other ohildren play. Once in a great while one notices them making a dismal attempt at "Ring 'Round Rosy" or some such play, but the trial is generally a dismal failure. Then, occasionally, you are startled to hear above the cranh and din of of street the shrill voices of little ones singing "L rndon Bridge." But outside of these I have never neon these poor babes engaged In any other play. Tbey run about in an aimless way and flxht and get very dirty, but they never seem to enjoy themselves. Tbey always »eom tired and hot, and rather disgusted, and their faces wear a pale, oldish look.

They have no place to play except the sidewalks. If they play in the hallways

otom

men com* out and scold them, and when they go to tbe pavement they are run into, jostled, and knocked down by othor cross men. They have no back yards nor front yards. They cannot play marbles or hopscotch for the interruptions, and

uhl-

spy" is denied them for the same cause. Kites are out of the question, for they only see a rift of the sky through a net-work of telogpiV-nirea. Their only grass is a few trfades that sftrlBfeom oati dropped in tbe cracks of the pav!nr~TOm«rr,*^||g*5H their noonday meal. The count!** terra

Incognita to them. The park«f^* yes,

they have been to a park—twice, 'heir father and mother took them on two «o«-

I sions on Sundays. It was very hot, al I the street cars were crowded, and they got tired boforo tboy got there. Have a good time? Oh, ye', they had red and green pop-corn, and the ground was all greer, and there was water and boats—at least papa said tbey wero boats. That's all.

They don't remember anything else, and they wouldn't bave tomembarod that if it hadn't been for the pop-corn.

Nobody they meet in their everv.lay life lias a kind word for them. When men •peak to them it is to tell them to got out of the way. Where other obildron receive caresses they receive cuff For tbem the sky ts never blue. Thick, murky clouds of smoke obscure what little they might otherwise see of it, blackening tbe house« and Showering down smut and grime. The street is full of charging horses, and the air Is full Of the din of bntiuesa They expedience no sweet and tender influence nil have no associations to bring them plea- utr» »nd tcech them knowledge. They are pri ternnturslly shrewd and glib. They an never at a lost for an answer, and slang or a lie slips from th»lr tongue like second na« turn They have no one to guide, advise comfort or Instruct them. Poor little cit children! ______

Paper In the Hoonaholrt.

fAuna Burrows in Oood Housekeeping.] Paper, being nearly air tight, will exclude •old and shoull be usol more thau it now is. Bwil lers place piper between the boar and clipboards of a house, and we should do well to follow their example in smaller matters. Farmers have found that the extra warmth secured by tacking several thickness-s of newspapers around the inside of beu-housee, eta, has saved extra food. A lsyjr of vper under a carpet is preferable to straw, which is sometimes used, and if tbe paper made for this purpose can not be obtained, several layers of newspaper will do nearly as well.

Papers spread between bed coverings wffl take the place of extra blankets. A folded paper to an excellent Inng protector on* over the chest and another around tbe thooders under the oat*ida garment would saveacokt and perhaps pneumonia. Dissolved in flour paste, newspapers make a useful filling for cracks In floors and ebewhere. Scraps of paper, wet and scattered orer the floor, when sweeping, will save tbe hpt in the room as wall as brighten tbe carpet. Bits of paper, with soap-suds, are effectual in cleaning bottles and are easily removed with the water.

Qreasr disbe* and kwttlas if flr*t rubbed with papr, wash much easier the paper absorbing tbe grease, and la all the better for kindling tbe fir* A grease spot often be taken oat of a oarpei or garment by placing two or three layers of paper orer it then put a warm iron on the paper. The beat softens the gream, and the paper abavrbe it, and by changing paper and iron occasionally all the creaM will disappear. Soft newspaper or tissue paper is preferable to cloth for cleaning lamp chimneys, windows, mirrors, ate., as it leaves no lint atet for knivea, spoons and tin srare after scouring and a stove will not need black tag so often if now and then rubbed with paper. Scraps of writing pa par or that need on afct* cnly ba utiles la several way*.

timas in ten. Such are guided not by the eye alons, but by symmetry erf shape and grace of movement. Ugly women bave these qualifications, though, as a rule it svould be found that their ugliness belongs to that class which logicians would call "aociieutaL" Mr. Wilkia Collins tells how one of his her Jes conceived the most glowing fancy of some young girl's face up observation of her back: she turned, and proved to be a mulatto. This is what we should call an "accident." The beauty nature designed was marred by the luckless chance that her skin and features appealed only to negro taste.

Bo it is with women under a variety of circumstances infinite as tbe ri-^ks and combinations of buman life. The experienced person is not deceived by inconsistencies of fids kind. He brings knowle ige of tha worid and mankind to bear. A woman who is beautiful can not be ignorant of tbe fact —unless she be stupid. We read of such things with pleasure, as we read of other Agreeable prodigies in romance. But whan a girl-child perceives that she is welcome everywhere, that old people smile at her approach, and young men pay her more attention than her comrades get, she must be duller than are the majority of her sex if tbe suspicion that she is good-looking does not strike her.

In a few mouths suspicion becomes delicious certainty. Wbispers are overheard, glances caught, the mirror anxiously consulted gives pleating assurance. Evei if there be no servant,nor complacent mother, nor good-natured friend of the family to set her doubt* at rest, the warmth and the frankness of boy lovers is proof enough. We do not believe that there aver was a girl living in tbe realms of tha habitable globe who did not know her prettiness, if pretty she was, before reaching the age of 17 but it is sadly true that miny girl* who are not pretty fall into error on the point

Helps to Somebody. [Oood Housekeeping.]

Press tbe finger against tbe upporlip, close to the nostrils, to prevent a sneeze. Strike a clock, then put on the hands at the hour struck, in order to havo them correspond.

For cramp in tbe feet, press tha hollow of the foot against something bard and round. A broom-handle is the best thing.

Add to the covered brick used as a weight for holding a door open a strip of the covering sewed strongly to the sides and raised just enough to admit tbe foot, then lift it by the toes, and save stooping.

An aid in making buttonholes in a garment which frays badly is to take a piece of glue that has a smooth and rather thiok edge, dip it slightly in hot water, and pass lightly over the goods before cutting the buttonholes. The result will be satisfactory.

In putting away summer or winter clothing for tbe season, label all packages on tha outside, and keep bandy a memorandum book with the contents of each trunk, drawer or closet specified it will proven saver of time and vexation. One ofteo forg»ts just where a bundle, or scarfs, etc., were put espeirvWiiy ft the accustomed place ba3 b«v-»n changed.

Keep if you cf *.£»' a closet for the sole use of medicinesappliances for sickness or accid«fc~i^ A narrow, high chimney-side closet answers tbe purpose admirably, with shelves naif way down, and deep drawers to fill tbe remaining space. Bundles of old, soft cotton and linen pieces, a roll of cotton batting and flannel, tbe rubber water bag, medicine dropper, bed-pan, and feoding cup, and everything needed in an emergency or long sickness. Have every vial plainly labeled those marked poison place always on the upper shelf. Keep the whole under lock and key, tbe key bey ond the reaoh of children, but easily accessible to older members of the family.

Every Woman Her Own Fashion Plate. I New York Oor. Chicago Journal] Extravagancies in feminine adornment find n?n*wod favor. One of these caught my eyo in the establishment of a mandressmaker—a big concern lately opensd as an American branch of a foreign bou e. You have read in novels about impoverished daughters of culture supporting thora8'lves by the -ale of drawings, which tbey are alwnys adept at making so well as to compete successfully with professional work r*. Something like that is realiasd in this shop, where a number of girls are hired to sketch designs, or modifications of oostames, for capricious customers. The fond-de-ir«i of tbe most fashionable dressers to be in a measure uniqus while in a genial way obeying the commands ot fashion.

A qutk, deft pencil outlines a likeness, except But the fatness leannesa or other departure fro* symmetry is apt to bo toned down aad the face is usually a very free-hand port\it in which all tha beauty Is anbancj.

Hiss Sfaade Howe's Tastes. [Oor. San Francisco Argouaut.] The genuine Newport belle, for she has lived there since she was a child, is Maude Howe, a daughter of Julia Ward Howe, and who, though verging on 30, is still quite as beautiful as when she sat for the portrait now in the Corcoran gallery, at Washington, which attracted so much attention when it was exhibited at tha Royal academy. She 1j a striking looking woman, with an "exquisitely turned jaw," a perfect neck and an artitic bead—round which ah* binds a wreath of ivy, In $he style of tbe winner of the Olympian game'. She is a lady of caprices. At present sa the tic garments are her fad, and she attires herself in limp, loose gowns of dull, faded colors, which ding about bar in a way that would have "h«wnw RossettL Dogs are with her another mania. At one time she ordered all her admirers to cease giving her candies and flowers and substitute dogs. As her lovers were many, she soon had a menagerie that murdered sleep by howling all night after the manner of their kind.

Anglomania In a Now Direettois.

'J [New York Oor. Chicago Tribune.] Anglomania is developing in anew direction this autum, and Is especially noticeable among the ladiea Red coats have been a erase at Lenox and Newport, and are already to be seen In great numbers along Fifth avenue and in Central park. Indeed, the scarlet-fever promises to be more completely epidemic this year than ever before. There will be no opportunity for fast young men to "paint tbe town red tha ladies have already begun to do it for them. Red coats, with heavy trimmings of astrakhan, and scarlet turbans to Correspond, will be the favorite costume this winter.' Whether tbey will be generally worn for walking, or only for driving and visiting, has not yet been decided.

Practleal Training. |[Cor. Chicago University.] J1"*

In Germany, I have been told, it is quite common for young ladies after leaving school to Bpsnd a few years in domestic service, not in their own homes, but actually hiring themselves out, for the benefit of the praotioal training. Perhaps it might relieve more difficulties than one if some of the mistresses would enter a training school also, for however intellectual a woman may be, she can not be a true woman and ignore entirely all. dp" duties.

BILL NYE WRITES

CONCERNING THE PRACTICAL AND THEORETICAL DRAMA.

His Great Scheme for a Wax Company— The Catchlness of Small-Pox on the Stage Introducing Hell

Gate—Diet, Kto.

i. [Boston Globe.] Tbe following lett*»- was written recently in reply to Mr. Scott Marble, author of "State's Attorney," "Black Diamond." "Over the Garden WalL" etc., otc., who proposed the matter of writing a play jointly:

Hudsox, Wis., Oct IS.

1885.—Scott

Marm.b, Esq., Dkar Sib: I have just received your favor of yesterday, in which you ask me to unite with you in tbe construction of a new play. This Idea has been suggested to me before, but hot insoch a way as to inaugurate the serious thought which your letter has stirred up in my seething mass of mind. I would like vary much to unite .with you in the erection of such a dramatic structure that people would cheerfully oorne to this country from Europe and board with us for months In order to sea this play every night

SHOULD BK DONE, BUT HOW? Ton will surely agree with me that somebody ought to write a play. Why it has not been done long ago I cannot understand. A wall-known comedian told ma a year ago that be hadn't been able to look into a paper for sixteen months. He could not even read over the proof of his own press notices and criticisms to ascertain whether the printer had sat them up as he wrote them or not simply because it took all his spars time off the stage to examine the manuscripts of plays that bad been submitted to him.

But I think we could arrange it so that we might together construct something in that line which would at least attract the attention of our families. Would you mind telling me, for instance, how to write a play! You have been in the business before, and you could tell me, of course, some of the salient points about it Do you write it with a typewriter, or do you dictate your thoughts to some one who does not resent being dictated tot

Do you write a play and then dramatisj it or do you write the drama and tben play on it! Would it not be a good idea to secure a plot that would cost very little and tben put the kobosh on it or would would put up the lines first and then hang tbe plot or drama, or whatever it is, on the line-f Is it absolutely necessary to have a prologue! If so, what is a prologue! Is it like a catalogue!

¥l

GOOD IDEAS, BUT CRUDW

f#5

I bave a great many crude ideas, but you see I am not practinaL One of my crude ideas is to introduce into the play an artist's studio, This would not cost much, for we could borrow the studio evenings and allow the artist to use it daytimes. Then we would introduce into the studio scene the artist's living model Everybody would be horrified, but tbey would go. They would walk over each other to attend the drama, and we would do well Our living model in the studio act would be made of common wax, and if it worked well, we would discharge our members of the company and substitute wax. Gradually wo could get it down to where tbe iJLoomoauv would be war, with the ^%exoe(£ ot janTW c*Tduster. Think .that over. But seri ously, a play, it seems to me, should embody an idea. Am I correct in that theory or noti It ought to convey some great thought some maxim or aphorism, or some such a thing as that How would it do to arrange a play with the idea of impressing upon the audienoe that "the fool aud his money are soon parted!" Are you usiug a hero and a heroino in your plays now! If to, would you mind writing their lines for them while I arrange tbo details and remarks for the young man who discovered asleep on a divan when the curtain rise«, and who sleeps on through the play with his mouth f-lightly ajar, till the close—the close of the play, not the clo-e of his mouth —wben it is discovered that he is dead. Hs then plays the cold. remains in the clodn« tableau, and fills a new-made grave at $9 per week.

A CENTRAL CHARACTER.

I could also write the lines, I think, for the young man who comes in wearing a light summer caue and a seersucker coat so tight that you can count his vertebras. I could write what he would say without great mental strain, I think. 1 must avoid mental strain or my intellect might split down the back, as I would be a mental wreck, good for nothing but tt strew the shores of time with myself. Various other crude ideas present themselves to my mind, but they need to bo clothed. Tou will say that this is unnecessary. I know you will at onoe reply that for tbe stage, the less you cloth an idea the more popular it will be, but I could not consent to havo even a bare thought of mine make an appearance night after night before a cultivated audience.

What do yon think of Introducing a giauine cae of small-pox on the stage! You say In your letter that what the American people clamor for is something "catchy." That would be catchy, and it wonld alio In*, trodnoe itaelf. "J'J "x,

WHAT KIND Of DIET!

I srlsh you wonld also tell me what kind of diet yon confine yourself to while writing a {day, and bow yon go to work to procure it Do yon live on a mixed diet or on your relatives! Would you soak your bead while writing a play, or would yon soak yonr overcoat! I desire to know all those things, bscause, Mr. Marble, to tell yon tha truth, I am as ignorant about this matter as tbe babe unborn. In fact posterity would have to gat up early in tha morning to know les-t about play writing than I have succeeded in knowing

If we are to make a ktad of comedy, my idea wonld be to Introduce something facetious into tha middle of the comedy. No one will expect it yon ssn, and it will tickia thf audience almost to death. A friend of mine *agge«t« that It would be a great hit to introduce, or rather to reproduce, tbe Hell Gate explosion. Many were not able to be there at the time, and would willingly go along distance to witness tha reproduction.

I wish that you wonld reply to this letter at an early data, telling me what you think of the scheme suggested. F«el perfectly free to express jrooraelf fully. I am not too prood to receive yonr suggestion* Toon truly* Bru. 5tk.
