Continued from Second Page 'Did you see that man who joined the itherspoon group while I was talking & Flora?"

Yes, handsome fellow. Who is he?" *'I have a suspicion lie is the murker." r'Tlie devil!" ['No, the murderer." "What makes you think so?" ["I don't think I suspect." "Ah, a nice distinction. What makes j»u suspect?" "You recollect that in my interview [ifch Flora she inquired particularly .ut the man I saw running away, askme whether he was toll, slnn and irk complexioncd." ["Very well."

Well, this fellow answers to the de'iptiou." "So he does. How did they address Im when he came up?" 'I only heard them call him 'Harry.'" "On intimate terms with the family, Jie»." 'That accounts for her curious manner l^ien he joined them," said Holbrook jusingly. "What is that?"

Holbrook described how Flora con.p&c'tl herself. Tliunder, the suspicion takes form, is something to work upon." "We must learn who he is." "That is easy wait for me a minute."

Tom hastily disappeared in the direction of the elevator. Holbrook leaned bacl* smoked his cigar, and pondered the situation. Tom joined him in a ihort time, and said: "Come with me to the elevator."

They wont off together, and then a man stopped up to them. He was a medium sized, thin man, cheaply clad, with sharp features and 'small eyes. "This is my friend Mr, Holbrook. He will point out a man to you. We want to know who he is, his name, residence, haunts, business—all that you can find out." "Very well," said the man. "Follow Holbrook."

The two entered and seated themselves at a point where they could observe the WitliofHpoon group without being seen.

They had hardly seated themselves when Flora and the man in whom they were so much interested joined her friends again. "That is the man," said Holbrook. "The one who has that handsome lady on his arm."' "Miss Ashgrove." said the man. "Yes, you know her, I see." "Yes, ntul the man too." "Oh, lot us go to Mr. Bryan, then."

They went out without being observed, for Flora's back was turned to them. They found Tom at the elevator and went down stairs. "He •knows him," said Holbrook to rom when they were ontlw.pavement. "\Vho is he?" asked Tom.v "Mr. Fountain—Harrv Fountain."

What is he?"

'Fashionable young man—member of Union club." "Where does ho live?" "That I don't know^ I've told you all I do know." "Then Hud out everything you can about him. I sha'n't want to see you •until you bring me the information." "It will bo a short job." "So much the better," said Tom. "Good-night." "Good-night, gentlemen." "Come, Holbrook, let's go," said Tom. "Who is that man?" asked Holbrook. "My shadow." "What do you mean by that?" "Exactly what I say. I employ him as a shadow. To find out things—to follow men—a spy, if you will." "What do you do that for?" "You are not up to the new dodges of 'modern journalism. He is always in my employ." "The douce! that's pleasant to hear.

How did you happen to find him so quickly when you wanted him?" "I whistled for him." "Pshaw!" "That's what I did. When we dined at Dol's ho was somewhere outside when we were in the theatre he was somewhere outside, and had I not sent him off now he would have been somewhere outside wherever I was until I went to bed. At any time I had only to give the whistle understood between us, and he would have appeared." "So that's modern journalism, is it?" "Oh no, only one of the recent upgrowths: I invented it." "Well, come down to the hotel and take a nightcap." "No, I'm for bed, and my room is not far from here. I've a big day before me lo-morrow. I may call upon you in the morning.

SW031AFS GRIEVANCES," •. II

CALMLY CONSIDERING WHETHER THEY ARE REAL OR IMAGINARY.

.'-Mr*

Proofs That They Had and Have "R«al Grievance*"—How Inventing* Hare Broadened the Fields of Womwf* "Work.

The Secret of the Strong Bight Arm.

The late Edmund Quincy, of Boston, who had been one of the most devoted and'self sacrificing of the abolitionists, and who had stood faithfully by women in their claim to a place on the anti-slavery platform, yet refused entirely, after slavery was abolished, to take any part in the woman suffrage movement, on the ground that there

{was

"no real grievance." The assertion that there was no real grievance* is sufficiently refuted by the fact that hundreds of grievances have been actually corrected hundreds of legislative bills in differen states of tfie Union, hundreds of events of social emancipation, show that progress has been made, and that there was, therefore, progress to be made. Against the few dozen employments outside the family which were folly opened to women when slavery was abolished, there are now many hundreds for tlie United States commissioner of labor, in his fourth report, gives minute statistics of fJ83 such employments, these being only selected "out of the large number now open." Many of these have been the fruits of distinct, laborious and gradual conquests from prejudice or selfishness within a quarter of a century. And when we consider the vast changes in the laws for women during the same time, all tending in the direction of her greater freedom and equality, it is perfectly incontestable that there must have been at some time grievances to right, else why have they been righted?

Now wflen we turn and ask ourselves why it is in that case these eminent reformers wore so heedless of these facts, it is not enough to say that they were short sighted. That goes without saying. But it is necessary to say, on the other hand, thai there are often too sweeping claims on the other side, and that many grievances which are put down to whim or custom are not due really to that, but to the slow development of inventions aud methods, which still give men the advantage, for reasons now unquestionable, but removable by time. Every step in invention helps to equalize the condition of the sexes in respect to labor. Just as Corlyle defines it as the merit of gunpowder that it "makes all men alike tall," so invention makes all human muscles alike strong the girl's finger accomplishes what the full strength of the man was once taxed to perform. Physical inventions thus have moral weight. For a time the weaker arm can be had more cheaply and is paid less and in the other departments, where strength still holds good, a higher price is commanded. But mind is always gaining on muscle, and the works that require main strength are constantly being relatively narrowed.

Women are now employed where they deal with the hardest materials through the delicate manipulations of machinery. It would be very unjust to say that they formerly were not employed in these ways because of mere prejudice or custom, or because they were not voters these obstacles may have entered in slightly, but not extensively. The main reason was that the progress of invention had not yet reached that point where their work could be made available. Invention as well as philanthropic agitation helped them, but invention did the main work.

I am satisfied that injury is often done by overstatement and by the assumption that the higher earnings of men are due wholly to a prejudice, I do not think that, as an able advocate of the cause of" woman has lately stated,"the rule of sex exclusion is as artidcial.and unjust as any other form of industrial serfdom." The very instance he goes on to give refutes his reasoning: "A man as nurse, in Boston, without any diploma, gets $3 for twelve hours' work, and can then go home. Woman as trained nurse, after two years' training iu a hospital and protected by a diploma, only gets $3 a day for unlimited hours of service." But every one who has bad to do with nurses knows that there are many cases where a male nurse is absolutely necessary for strength of arm in handling a heavy patient, so that he must be had at any price, and, inasmuch as there are very few such nurses to be had, they simply control tho market and dictate their own terms.

In tho list of 133 professional nurses in the last Boston directory accessible to me (188(1) thero appear the names of only 6 men. Such a disparity proves, in the first place, that male nurses are not enormously overpaid— for if they wore they would flock into the profession and it, moreover, shows very good reason why they should be paid a higher price, from the sheer difficulty of getting them. The only surprise is that they do not ask $10 a day, for one would think that they could get it. Tho disparity dt numbers is universal in the whole state of Massachusetts there are only 134 male nurses and 8,133 female nurses. (State Census of 188o, ii, 410.)

And all this has a bearing on the most obvious instance of inequality of payment— that of public school teachers. There are undoubtedly many instances where women are paid much less than men for rendering precisely the same service in teaching. But these eases are now in the minority the grievance, though undoubted, is of a differon is that the higher grades of school service are now opened more to men than to women. This grows out of'the system of graded schools. I Massachusetts, for instance, less than one-tenth of the public school teachers are men (829 out of Si,824), but that! one-tenth hold tho highest offices, and therefore have higher pay. It is the general habit in cities and towns to group the public schools in large buildings, with a man at the head of each building, and drawing, naturally, the highest salary. Why is not a woman placed there? Often have I asked this question of school committees, and always with the same answer. It is, as with nurses, the question of the strong arm.

In the imperfect development of our educational methods, teachers, both male and female, still rely on brute force and while that is involvi&d, committees must have at least one able bodied male teacher Jn each of our large school buildings, just as in certain cases of illness there must be a male nurse. So far it is not a mere custom or prejudice, but a necessity. These head teachers are very often inferior to their female assistants in general education and enlightenment, hut they have the right arm and ths habit of employing men in these positions from supposed necessity leads to their employment in other high educational positions where women would do just as well. As education develops, and the strong arm becomes less essential, woinen will ia time be equally available with men for these highly paid positions, and their payment may in the end be equalised, as it now is ia literature. No good ever comes, however, from overlooking obvious facts and making a wrong diagnosis of the disease.—T. W. H. ia Harper's Bazar.

ANew York letter wys: "There are four female dentists in this city. One of them, who graduated in Philadelphia two or three yean ago at the hud of a class of sixty-one men, already has a large clientage up town."

A Social Parasite.

"Where is her home!" asked one of the women, setting her crochet needle crosswise between her lips and stretching her work Btraight across her knee. **In other people's spare rooms,'1' answered the other, laughing a little and no further comment was made, for both knew the type wdL A rolling stone that gathers no more moss than will comfortably fill one trunk, which will comfortably fill a corner in any guest chamber, it is the woman who has no sense of acquisitiveness, po feminine ambitions that yearn toward a closet filled with glossy linen, whence come delicate odors from lavender bags, and the edges of the shelves are fluffy with towel fringes. She is a human cuckoo, greedy of the sweet order and peace of home, fain of the warmth and comfort of nests wifely birds have toil'ed and denied themselves to create, but unwilling for the sacrifices by which almost any woman with the woman's instinct for home may make herself soma personal alcove in the great mansion of life.

There is a surprising number of these women parasites who live out their lives in other people's houses, partaking of the best, parr fioipating in all the comforts and luxuries and rendering nO equivalent in return. A busy woman said not long ago: "If I should accept all the invitations I get I should need no home at alland'the cuckoo finds it, with a little management and a large circle of acquaintances, an easy thing to spend her entire time very pleasantly in spare rooms. She is not an objectionable person, at least in an aggressive sense cheerful, loquacious, not too exigent, she manages to keep every one in a good humor with her and gets invitations, her hostesses could not quite tell how. She is a fair weather bird, for when anything occurs to mar the smoothness of her borrowed home—when the cook leaves or the baby comes down with the measles—she explains, with sweet consideration, that she will not stay any longer just now, she knows that she is in the way, but she will come back, if you like, for another week in February upon which she takes wing, and flits away to more agreeable quarters. In February she certainly returns, if all is going happily with you, and the strong oak fibered women yield of their substance cheerfully to the mistletoe. —Chicago Herald. ,*

Changing Her Hair.

A Bridgeport young woman made a sensation. She Is a brunette, and had long been vain of her handsome glossy black tresses but one day, having read that Patti had bleached her hair, she concluded that a young lady must have straw colored hair in order to be in the swim. The Bridgeport girl decided to drift toward bleached hair by easy tacks. She would start in for auburn hair. So she bought a drug store preparation that was warranted to turn the hair any hue desired, "or money refunded," and applied it. She put the stuff on just before going to bed, and next morning awoke to ahead of hair that was of a deep and glistening purple, like the color on a peacock's dorsal plumage. She made another trial of her bleaching fluid, and lior hair came out'on the second morning a vivid blue. So a Bridgeport newspaper advised her to enter aNew York dime museum under the pseudonym of the "Blue Haired Belle of Buglevillc." But she became frightened and consulted a physician, who told her to wash her head in soap and water. She did so, and on the third morning her hair had become as white as wool aud exceedingly brittle. Then tho Bridgeport journal advised her to become an "Olive Eyed Albino," but she is waiting~for nature to reproduce the original color.—Middletown Letter.

The weather has nothing to do with the programme. It is enough that she has decided a1 to accept the cards. If the time is limited' the saddle is mounted and society's fair leader gallops through the "bark" or round the park in a hunting costume until rosy and weary. Then she goes home, goes to bed and goes to sleep the moment her head touches the pillow. The ladies who belong to the country clubs andwho hunton foot wear short costumes of gray homespun, trimmed with green, or an English cheviot, with a derby and a'stuffed squirrel for a muff. What are known as cross-country strolls are taken between 10 and 2 and stretches of dozen miles made, not often, but still they are made.—New York World.

A Princess with the Needle.

The needle has not yet wholly given place to the sewing machine, nor is it only in the old folk lore stories that princesses ply that ancient implement of domestic use. Lady Wolverton has been telling her friends of the Needlework guild of a certain red flannel petticoat which she had been permitted to see, whereon the Princess Mary of Teck, the president of the guild, had wrought some excellent specimens of what housewives know as herring bone stitch. "So," added the energetic founder of the society that has its branches in twenty English counties, besides Scotch and Irish societies, "we begin with her royal highness and go down to the little maid of all work, who said: 'If I could do with two aprons she would find time to make them.'" The guild, which had its origin in the London society formed by Lady Wolverton only seven years ago, has prosperous offshoots even in America, France, Italy and Switzerland. As to the ages of this army of needleworkers, Lady Wolverton says that her associates have ranged from to 95 years. The youngest, it appears, make pinafores and the like, While th® oldest prefer the quiet byways of knitting and crochet.—London Daily News.

Beautiful Beds.

Another beautiful bed is slept in every night by one of the prettiest girls here it is of gold and white the frame itself is of white enamel, picked out with gold here and there, and at the top stand two- gold angels, as if they were blessing the sleeper, while above them another is apparently floating in the air from their hands fa^the full soft lace curtains that drape the bMH£fo have a great deal of hand work on otjMpfen is considered very smart. Not lonp'ago I saw some sheets, the linen of which was almost fine enough to go through a ring—certainly a bangle. The edges were hemstitched, the upper hem being very deep. Upon it was wrought in enormous letters a monogram, and above this a viscount's crown, while the edge was finished with a Mil of real Valenciennes lace half a yard wide. This lace was real, and as vary little of that Is seen nowadays it was not surprising to know that these sheets cost $230 a pair. A few foolish with more money than brains have Paris very superb beds that had, set in eaaopy, huge mirrors but, after they been laughed at by people who knew better, the glass was quickly removed and silk drapings pat ia its place.—New York Sua.

"IT'S PERFECTLY 'STONISHING"

Little Lucy Was Tired from Slaking Cake and l*hongl»t Her Bed Had "Growed."

Lucy had been spending the day at grand­

mamma's,

and when she came home after tea

she was very tired and sleepy. Mamma asked her what she had been doing all day. "I've

been making cake," said

"Sponge cake it was so good!"

Lucy.

"Indeed!" said mamma. "And how did you make it, Lucy?" "Why, I brought the eggs to grandmamma,"- said Lucy, "and then she broke them, and then she stirred them round and round and round, and then I brought the sugar, and I had a spoonful on my bread and butter, and she put the rest into the bowl and then she put in the flour and the lemon, and I had a squeeze of the lemon in my mug to make lemonade. Then grandmamma stirred it all together for along time, and I was tired and played with the kittens" "Who did you say was making this cake, Lucy ft interrupted Aunt Ellen. "I was making it," said Lucy. "Didn't I tell you, auntie? But I couldn't be making it all the time, so grandmamma helped me a little." "Oh!" said auntie. "I beg your pardon. Goon, Lucy." "Then," continued Lucy, "when it was quite ready I tasted it before it went into the oven to see if it was all right, and I had a little heart shaped one for myself, and I ate it as soon as it was baked. And grandmamma said I was quite a good cook. And. please, I want to go to bed." "Trot along as fast as you please," said mamma. "Undress yourself, darling, and in a few minutes I will come up to hear your prayers." little Lucy went up stairs as she was bid, rubbing her sleepy eyes with her little fat fists. Oh—so—sleepy!

The stairs seemed a mile long and she thought she should never get to the top step. At last, however, she tumbled up on the landing, and tumbled in at the first open door. She was talking all the time talking to her beloved little brass bedstead, of which she was very fond "B6ddy, dear," said Lucy. "Dear little pretty, shiny beddy, I'm coming now! My own little beddy bouse, all waiting for me. Pretty yellow balls and pretty"— But there Lucy stopped short and opened her sleepy eyes as wide as if they had never been sleepy. "Oh! oh! oh!" said Lucy. "Why, why, it's growed big

She sat down on the floor and stared at the brass bedstead. It was just as bright and just as pretty, and had just as many balls on it, but—wonderful, most wonderful I—it was at least three times as big as it had been when she got out of it in the morning. Nevertheless, it did not seem in the least proud or stuck up, but stood there very quietly. "Beddy, dear," said Lucy, ''how you have growed!"

But the bedstead made no reply? "Beddy, dear," she went on, "if you had only told me this morning, I would have triedti grow, too,"if you had showed me how. Grandpapa always thinks I am growing, am ashamed to tell him Idon't knowpW But Pnever saw anything grow like tlm&^'ts perfectly—it's perfectly 'ston-ishingi-v,'« ell she continued, after along pause, dumg which she stared till her' eyes actualljybegan to water, "I suppose I may as well get in, though I shall be quite lost in the midd'a of it. It's simply ridiculous for a **irl &r my size to have a giant's bed. I know mamma will never find me in It."

In five minutes Lucy was in tho very middle of the big bed. In six minutes she was sound asleep, and in seven minutes mamma came upstairs and went into Lucy's room. "Darling," said mamma, softly, "are you awake?"

There was no answer. "She is asleep," said mamma softly to herself: "I will just tuck her in without waking herV

4?Oh!

1

But when mamma went to the little brass bed, lo and behold! it was empty.

"Lucy," said mamma, "where are you?" But no Lucy replied. "Are you hiding, dear?" cried mamma. "Come to me, like a good girlie, and let me put you to bed."

Still all was silent, and mamma became alarmed. She ignited the gas and searched the room, and then her own room, which was next to it, but no sign of Lucy was to be seen. "Ellen!" cried mamma "come up, please. I cannot find Lucy anywhere."

Aunt Ellen came running up. "She must have gone into baby's nursery," she said. "Wait till I put ray bonnet in my room and I will go and find her." But when Aunt Ellen went into her room there was Lucy fast asleep in the middle of her big brass bed. "Oh, ho!" said Aunt Ellen. "Some one has been lying on my bed, said the middle sized bear. Here is your silver hair, sister."

Mamma came running and they both laughed to see the little mite curled up in the middle of auntie's big bed.. Mamma lifted her softly and carried her to her own little bed and lifted her up in it but Lucy did not stir nor wake.

She woke in the morning, though and what do you think she said vraen she opened bar sleepy eyes?

oh! oh!" she said. "Why! why! it's

^perfectly 'stonishing!"—Laura E. Richards in Youth's Companion.

A Savings ltox for Girls*

It need not be a box at all it maybe a bag, or a big welled ink stand, or it may a Satsuma jar. But have it. Then, the day is done and the purse is being over, count out the pennies and spare some to the savings box. My dear girl, it is your independence. The pennies, half dimes and dimes count up. and then when you want to surprise mother with a birthday gift, when you want to go on a frolic, or when you would like to have a good photograph, a really good one to give somebody who is very fond of you, the money saved is that brought forth. Just try going without a few things—a car fare now and then, some candies, or the very latest in collars, and dedicate the ducats to the box. Yon will be amazed to see bow they accumulate. And best of all, the saving habit win come to you. That does not mean lade of generosity, it means thought for the future. Some maacaline philosopher said women only began to save money when they bad passed thirty, bat If that is true, it Is because the savings box idea was not taught from yocth op—Larftaf Home Journal.

A New Method of Treating Disease.

HOSPITAL REMEDIES.

What are they? There is a new departure in the treatment of disea«e. It consists in the collection of the specifics us^l by noted specialists of Europe and America, and bringing them within the reach of all. For instance the treatment pursued by special physicians who treat indigestion, stomach aud liver troubles only, was obtained and prepared. The treatment of other physicians celebrated for curing catanh was procured, and so on till these incomparable cures now include disease of the lungs, kidneys, female weakness, rheumatism, and nervous debility.

This new method of •'one remedey for one disease" must appeal to the common sense of all sufferers, many of whom have experienced the ill effects, and thoroughly realize the absurdity of the claims of patent medicines which are guaranteed to cure every ill out of a single bottle, and the use of which, as statistics prove, has ruined more stomachs than alcohol. A circular describing these new remedies is sent free on receipt of stamp to pay postage by Hospital Remedy Company, Toronto, Canada, sole proprietors.
