HOW A RUSSIAN JEWESS SUCCESS. 4

Hie Probably Keeps the iLarjceat Outdoor Newntud In the Conntry—How She HM Built Up the XJTUI&eM—Elements of Her Saco*M.

A woman—a foreigner, a Russian Jewess—keeps the largest outdoor newsstand in the great city of New York. Her business and her success did not all come in a day or a year. Bnt she earned it honestly, and no one among her thousands of patrons begrudges it. The secret of her success is an unfailing courtesy and a naturally dowered lady hood that command the highest respect

Her name is Brone P. Nelson (or Chaneles, as she was called in Russia), and it is always entertaining to listen to the few reserved words she occasion ally lets fall of her life in Moscow. Brone Nelson is a patridt She used to live uear Tolstoi and see bim daily at his work. She loves him, and she un derstands what the count and the ban ished Prince Krepotkin are trying to teach the Russian people, that great re forms are not effected in a day and that "they also serve who only stand and wait."

In Moscow as a wife and mother Brone was kept in comparative ease through the exertions of her tradesman husband. But she was broad minded and bad studied her country's literature as well as that of others. She was a Russian Jew, anfl she felt the oppres sion of her government.

So she, with her husband and two children, though loving Russia, left it and came to this country about eight or nino years ago. They possessed about 8,000 rubles or some $2,200. But they shared the misfortunes that come to many strangers in a strange land. They had not the ways, they had not the tongue. Brone's husband died nine montbs*after their arrival, and she was left in New York to caro for herself and tho two little boys. The money was dwindling. She hired herself to do sewing machine work. For two weeks she worked for nothing as a learner, and then she took full rank with the experi-

encod hands, earning from $10 to $13 per week. For 1 year and 8 months she pursued this work diligently, aud then it slackened. She lost six weeks work. Her rout of 812 a month was going on and her children must be kopt.

Sho heard through an acquaintance of her husband who had known her in Russia of a newspaper stand tlmt was for sale at One Hundred aud Sixteenth street and Eighth avenue. The owner offered to sell tho business for $Sf0 Brono had only $85 left iti the bank, but sho collected her jewelry, remnants of former luxury, and took it to a pawn shop on tho bowery. There they gave her for some diamonds, her watch and chain and other ornaments $100 She still lucked tho money, but a cousin of her husband came forward and loaned her $100, and tho stand was purchased "For myself." sho often says in recalling her start in life in this country, "1 had no fear—indeed I did not care Rain, cold and storm I stood oxit there I thought only of tho children."

Despite a rival who established himself and spent a good deal of money on tho opposite corner Brouo in eight mouths was ablo to pay back the loan of $100, aud by sheer Spartan courage and extreme courtesy to customers she soon established a paying business at her staud. Thou sho took her two brothers into partnership, and the concern now supports, besidos herself aud her two bo?, her eldest brother, his wife aud boy, a younger brother yet unmarried and her nephew, a sister's child. "We don know," she says in her quaint way, "to whom the business now belongs. There is a common purse, and we are confident that one will not take a penny moro than be absolutely needs."

This is the sixth year of tho business. The entire family are engaged in It There are three tables filled with newspapers and periodicals and a little house under tho elevated stairs where the stock is kept There is also a thriving newspaper route served by pushcarts. Taking all into account, the firm count their regular customers at something between 2,000 and 8,000 a day. Their expenses for the privilege of the stand amount to considerable a year, and a fresh permit is taken out each year. They employ one man's entire time at $8 per week. Three boys deliver in the early morning hours each day for $3 per w«ek They work from 5.30 to a. m. A young lady stands at one of the tables from 6 to 11 a each day for #6 per week. The nephew delivers from 5:80 to 7 a. and then makes bis way to his work and study at the Bellevue Medical college for the rest of the day. Even the Ifttle hoys, aged 12 and 10 respectively, run a pushcart on the morn* ings of their vacation from school They attend the Felix Adler school, and it It Mrs. Nelson's wish that they bo educated in a Donsectarian establishment The only creed she will give them la that tt

houcsty. Mr. Adler accepts her two boy* free of tuition fee, but the mother eye is on their work. One boy is backward in arithmetic. She is paying a tutor to coach him go that he may not be behind bis class, acd both boys are receiving a musical education. She is just now anxious about her nephew. She tells me he works too hard, and she wishes him to give up his newspaper route and spend those early morning hours in bed before he goes to bis medical studies, but the young man is evidently endowed with quite the proper spirit, for he will not fc-^ar of it.

Brone is still young as well as refined and handsome. There is the essence of a prOtid and lasting sorrow about her, but such is the strength of her character that this only serves to grace her manner and her attitude. Not one of those who pour in and out the elevated entrance at One Hundred and Sixteenth street but miss her when she is off duty for a moment Her anxiety to serve you is rather the hospitable anxiety of the hostess looking after your comfort than the servility of the pushing tradeswoman. I cannot describe just the way she gives you your paper and your change. You must go buy one for yourself if you are ever in New York, and then you will see. Her touch is not only deft and obliging—it is graceful, it is exquisite. "Oh," she will say to me sometimes, "I have no time to learn the language, the literature of this great people. My life will he wasted, I know. But I am hoping some things for my children's futura Maybe you don't want this paper. Perhaps you are only purchasing to purchase from me?"

For this I give her a little lecture and after it we shake hands on the inexorable fact that neither of us can afford to miss business or doubt the motives of our customers.

It is no easy life to stand at this street corner through foul weather and through fair, day in and day out, sometimes from 6 o'clock in the morning until 8 o'clock at night to meet all kinds of people, the coarse and the refined, the snob and snobess and the keen man and woman' of business. And, above all, to know by the keenest attention and study just what paper they want, to have it ready with the least possible delay and always with unvarying and marked oourtesy. And the result? An income from the newsstand of from $4,000 to $5,000 per year, I should judge. How many American women to the manner born" are there who would do it or could do it?

THE NEW WOMAN.

Answer to the Qaestion What Good Women's Clubs Have Done.

While it cannot be denied that some women's clubs seem to e&ist mainly to show off the bonnets and gowns of the members the list of really useful ones becomes wider with each returning autumn. This year in New York city there was intense activity among the ladies' political organizations, more than there has been at any time before. Each candidate for mayor had clubs of women working enthusiastically for him. In fact, several women have been regularly employed from some of the party headquarters to go out among the meetings of men and directly address voters themselves. These ladies are very popular and effective speakers too.

Meantime tho record of one club, a nonpolitical one, will show the magnificent possibilities for good that lie within the power of organizations of women. That is the Chicago Woman's club. Mrs. Ellen M. Henrotin has prepared the brief statement copied below, merely making mention of the club's achievements. When you are asked what good women's clubs do, just point your questioner to this record.

It supplied 50,000 persons with work during the depression that followed the dosing of the World's fair.

It introduced the kindergarten system into the Chicago public schoola It established the Children's Aid sooioty, which distributes garments to poor school children.

It raised $35,000 to aid tho Kenwood industrial school for boys. It secured the appointment of a woman physician in the insane asylum at Dunning.

It supports the school for boys in the city jail. It inaugurated the movement for raising funds for the woman's dormitory at Chicago university.

It raised an endowment fund scholarship for the Art institute. It has organized the following associations: The Protective Agency For Women and Children, the Physiological institute, the Society For Physical Cul fcur© and Correct Dress, the Public School Art association and the Chicago Political league.

By the way, come to think of it, where is any club of men that has done as much as this?

"Who oould fall in lore with that! exclaimed a man on looking at the picture of an American lady who has won a noble place in a profession. Who wants you to fall in love with her, yon conceited idiot? Not the woman herself, certainly. The solid fame and money she has obtained for herself are worth more than the fleeting admiration of a thousand shallow brained jackanapes like yon. You and your kind will find out that the Almighty made women for something else than merely to be fallen in love with by fools. First and foremost of all, he created her for herself, to develop as an individual her capabilities without reference to anybody elm.

be desired. No woman ever put on a soiled, poor or unfashionable suit "just to run to market" or go shopping in whose heart did not quake for fear of meeting some very particular friend. There is really no excuse but direst poverty for a woman who dresses badly now with handsome woolen and silken stuffs so cheap. Those who live in large cities and have any of that very useful quality known variously as "gumption," "faculty" and common sense oan by watch ing the papers find where there is to be a bargain sale of such material as she needs. Nearly all the large stores Sell the remnants of good material at cost

rather than carry them, and four and half yards will make an ample skirt for a largo woman of nearly all the goods now sold, silk, satin and velvet excepted. But even if there is no bargain counter a lady can get good woolen stuffs now at from 50 cents to 8o cents per yard in domestics and some of the foreign goods. Our wool fancies and colored cheviots are quite as good as those of foreign countries, and so are twills, cloths and plaids. But there are certain black goods that are better made and dyed than we can produce, and they, being line, are dear. But there is no law compelling us to wear them. |||§l

If I had this whole newspaper at "my disposal, I might be able to tell about a few of the blouses, but as I havo not I will mention only a couple of leading features. One was a belted basque blouse of drab cloth, thick and firm. Around the bottom and up the front were a border of mink and one square revers. The collar was of the drab oloth, with a half collar of the fur reaching forward only as far as the shoalder seams. The belt was black leather, with a gold buckle. This was worn with a brown plaid skirt. There was an open blouse waist of green and yellow brocaded changeable silk. The vest was of white silk with the new Paris four-in-hand of chiffon, and the collar was altogether a grand affair of white silk, draped with chiffon ruches at the edges, and a long, thick rosette at the back, with a bow with sharp ends of changeable green and yellow eilki The sleeves were short puffed coat shape, with deep chatelaine cuffs of purple velvet, embroidered with gold aud edged with chiffon ruchiug. The sleeves and skirt were of hunter's green silk. There were revers and a wide draped belt of purple, with a very large bow of many loops at the left side. This bow contained all the colors in the silks, one loop always being bound with the other color. Plain gray cloth, bordered with brown fur and embroidered with a darker shade of gray, made another handsome blouse.

Evening dresses are now the rage, and every one nrust have two or three. Fish nets over pretty taffetas and decorated with ribbons are tasteful and girlish. So are the light taffetas, especially when made with a plain skirt and drooping blouse waist of tissue, embroidered'with pearl beads. Berthas of lace, beaded passementerie or puffings of tulle or chiffon are all in voguo. Long sashes to tie in the back are worn with most evening dresses, whether fcr dancing or receptions or grand dinners. Embroidered silk muslin I have spoken

of before. This is draped over bodices and made into loose skirts over taffeta or satin. A beautiful evening wrap was made of moonlight blue moire, and the high collar was bound with white swan's down.

Dancing slippers are of kid'or silk to match the dress, and some are strapped while others are not, hut all are beaded and studded with imitation diamonds. Flowers, mostly sprays of roses, are worn on waists of white frocks.

Sending Bedclothes by Mail.

An old negro bearing a huge bundle of bedclothes which were somewhat the worse for wear and noi)6 too immacu late in character rappud at one of the little windows up at the postoffice. The clerk who appeared in answer to the summons was thus greeted by the aforesaid darky: "Boss, I'ze got tu send dis here bundle o' bedclo'es to my old 'oman down in Mis'sippi. Is dis, here de place whah I'ze got ter start it off?" "Oh, you want to send the package by mail, do you?" asked the clerk, without cracking a smile. "Sartain, fer sho', boss. How much is I got ter pay?" inquired the darky.

The clerk could not resist the temptation to play a joke upon a fellow clerk, so he said: "Well, uncle, this isn't the place for you to leave your bundle, but if you will just tak8 it down to that window below here"—indicating the general delivery department—"and hand it in to the clerk down there, he will put the right number of stamps on it and send it off for yon." "Thanke'ee, boss thank'ee. I sho'is obleeged ter ou," said the unsuspecting Senegambian.

He at once made his way to the department inaicated. Arriving there, he thrust his huge bundle into the window, into which it fitted closely, at ttr same time telling the astonished presiding genius of that department please to put stamps on it and sent it to "my oiu 'oman, Sallie Sanders, do^vn in Water Valley."

«Antctobacco Smoking.

There is ample authority for the statement that before the introduction of tobacco it was customary to inhale the smoke of burned herbs for medicinal purposes. There is, however, so far as I know, no authority for supposing that pipes at all resembling our tobacco pipes were used for this purpose. Lyte says of coltsfoot: ."The perfume of the dried leaves ledde upon quicke colts, taken into the mouth through the pipe of a funnell, or tunnell, helpeth such as are troubled with the shortnesse of winde, and fetche their breath thicke or often, and do (sic) breake without daunger the impostems of the breast."

This is the usual form of the directions given in such cases, and Gerard follows it almost word for word, adding, however: "Being taken in manner as they take tobaco, it oltsioot) mightily prevaileth against the disease aforesaid."

This is pretty good evidence that tobacco pipes were not in uso in Lyte's time, but had bet introduced in Gerard's. In Syhester's "Tobacco Battered and Their Pipes Shattered" tobacco $ipes are spoken of as anew invention: Two smoakle Engines, in thia latter Ago (Satan's short Circuit, the more sharp his rage) Have been invented by too-wauted Wit, $gs H* vutVinv trimtnl fiiAm fK' Tnfownal) Dif

A Rainfall of Seeds.

Some days ago the province of Macerata, in Italy, was the scene of an extraordinary phenomenon. Half an hour before sunsoi an immense number cf small blood colored clouds covered the sky. About an hour later a cyclone storm burst, and immediately tho air became filled with myriads of small seeds. The seeds fell over town and country, covering the ground to a depth of about half an inch. The next day the whole of the scientists of Macerata were abroad in order to find some explana tion.

Professor Cardinali, a celebrated Italian naturalist, stated that the seeds were of the genus cercis, commonly called Judas tree, and that they belonged to an order of leguminossso found only in central Africa or the Antilles. It was found, upon examination, that a great number of the seeds were actually in the first stage of germination. Golden Penny.

Potatoes In the Pulpit.

A clergyman who enjoyed the substantial benefits of a fine farm was slightly taken down on one occasion by his Irish plowman, who was sitting on his plow in the wheatfield. The reverend gentleman, being an economist, said, with great seriousness: "John, wouldn't it be a good plan for you to have a pair of pruning shears here and be cutting a few bushes along the fence while the horses are resting a short time?"

John, with quite as serious a countenance as the divine himself, said: "Look here, wouldn't it be well, sir, for you to have a tub of potatoes in the pulpit, and while they were singing to peel 'em awhile to be ready for the pot?

The reverend gentleman laughed heartily and left.—Pearson's Weekly.

Sugar will keep you from getting lazy At least that is what a medical authority says who has been making some recent interesting experiments on the source of muscular exertion. He administered a liquid containing 80 grains of sugar to a person who had heavy daily work to do and who wa kept in ignorance of the nature of the experiment being tried upon him. On the days when the sugar was omitted it was observed that the laborer was unable to accomplish so much work and that he had less ease in doing it than on the days when he ate the sugar. It is said by some that a person who habitually eats sweets has great muscular endurance. —New York Tribune.
