What Charles Baofhtcr Did. Row Kinintloj-. in Wide Awake. Let Due tell you bow we wore taught to help those who helped us In our dear old home at Ever-Uey rectory, of course, In a busy house where every one has work to do, tiie servant cannot be helped much on week days, except by thought fulness In little things.

But there Is the seventh day. when the children have no lessons to do. This was what we were taught to look upon as the "helpers'" day of rest, as far as we could make it so. In the morning breakfast was earlier than usuaL While we were breakfasting the maid was emptying our baths, for they were too heavy for us children. As soon as breakfast was over we trotted off to our rooms, made the beds, folded up and put away all our clothes, dusted, and in fact put things straight all around.

Then we ran down to the dining-room and laid the table for dinner, and capital butlers we all became, I assure you. By these means the maids were all ready In their nice Sunday dresses to go to church with us all at 1L Dinner on Sunday, no matter who was with us, was at 1 o'clock Instead of 7. This was the only hot meal in the day. No cooking was done after 1 o'clock, as our supper was cold. At both dinner and supper the servants were sent away, and we waited at table.

I laugh now when I thluk of the faces of horror of learned men or gallant soldiers wno had come down to spend Sunday In the dear old rectory, or ridden over from Sandhurst or Aldershot to the morning service. The agonies they went through at being waited on by the daughters of the house. The struggles they made to be allowed to change their own plates! And their resigned submission when quietly told by their host, "It Is the way of the house!" That was how we were made to help the faithful and devoted servants who spent their lives In helping us. It was not much, but It gave them an almost free Sunday. Snobbery in Philadelphia.

From the Daily News. only last week I saw a large sign In the window of a man's furnishing goods shop on Chestnut street below Broad. It was suspended over a display of gloves, and read: "Now worn by the Prince of Wales." such an announcement should outrage the sensibilities of any self-respecting man, and should make him taboo the establlshl lueut. Yet this hrm knows what they are doing I and how to lure the Imbecile society mimic. Kor the same purpose they call themselves "haberdashers." That sounds English, you know, and the Imbecile will never guess that a haberdasher la really a dealer In small wares, such as "ribbons, tape, pins, net dies, thread, twist, buttons, trimmings, on Chestnut street, also, I have noticed recently during the shopping hours that a number of the liveried coachmen and footmen atop handsomelyappointed carriages wear at one side of th-lr hats.

I wonder If their employers know how ridiculous and laughable this Is? Do you know what it indicates in London, whence the custom has been stolen without a knowledge of Its meaning? It signifies that the livery Is that of the military nobility; that the master of the one wearing he cockade Is a nobleman holding a position In either the army or navy. Its use in this country means simply the Imbecility of those who employ It. Tine to Speak Out.

From the San Francisco Argunant.

An elderly single woman of Boston, with a good deal of money and no especial avocation, recently declared hat she was In future going to spend her winters In Washington. "You see," she explained, "not being a young girl, or a married woman, or a social leader, there is, logically, no social place for me in Boston. Washington Is the only American city cosmopolitan enough, old world enough, to afford social place to women of my age without a mission. It is really, you know, the only American city where boys and girls are not supposed to be the only persons to carry on society. Yes, I'm going to Washington." This strikes me as only another phase of the complaint Prof.

Boyesen makes in one of the current magazines, that all our Action is written for young girls, and, therefore, has no backbone. Two Little Pifv. From Harper's Young People. One bright summer morning as I was strolling toward the beach on the Island of Maklnac, I saw a short distance ahead of me two little pigs, one perfectly white and the other perfectly black, both the same size, trudging along side by side In the same direction as myself, seemingly engaged In earnest conversation. They seemed so out of place, and I was so curious to Know whither they were bound, that I followed them unobserved.

They did not walk aimlessly, but as if they had some special object in view, and some definite destination. I wondered what they would do when they reached the water. I was not long in being answered. Without a moment's hesitation they plunged into the waves side by side, and swam out and away toward another Island fl miles distant. I stood and watched them until their two little heads looked like balls bobbing up and down, side by side, all the time.

When I related the Incident to the landlord a little later, he looked astonished and annoyed. "Thnse pigs," he said, "were to have been served up for dinner to-day. They were brought here this morning In a boat from that Island, and we thought we might allow them their freedom for the snort time they had to live, never thinking of their making an attempt to return home." "And did you notice," he continued, "thev chose the point of land nearest the Inland where they came from to enter the water? Stugular that the little animals should have been so bright I And furthermore, they weren't landed there; that makes It more strange." too, left the Island that day, and I have never heard whether thoee brave little pigs ever reached their destination or not." A Ruwcll Sace "Put" in Court. A VERDICT AGAINST THK OBSAT SFSCCLATOR IS ntlVlLBOKS. A case was decided in the Superior Court of New York Tuesday, involving the construction of contracts Known in the vernacular of Wall street as "privileges." The suit was originally Instituted by Imslee A.

Hopper against Mr. Russell Sage. In the complaint it is set forth that on May 23, 1878, Mr. Hopper purchased a "put," which the defendant sjgned, and by which he agreed to take from the purchaser, any time within 30 days, 500 shares of Chicago and Northwestern common stock at 41). In the agreement regarding the "put" It is stated "the undersigned is entitled to all the dividends or extra dividends declared during the time." when Mr.

Hopper called on Mr. Sage on June 22, and stated that he for the stock In question, Mr. Sage contended that as in the interval between May 23 and June a 3 per cent dividend had been paid, Mr. Hopper was entitled to payment only at the rate ol a share. Mr.

HopCer relused to receive payment on such terms, as claimed the dividend paid since the contract was entered into had been declared beiore it was made and signed, lie accordingly brought suit against the veteran financier to the amount of the difference between the price of the stock at 46 and at 19. The tirst judgments obtained were in Mr. Sage's favor, but in the Superior Court Tuesday Judge Dugro directed the jury to hud for the plaintiff, which was done accordingly, the full interest, being granted lu the sum of 12,314.20. Alter the return of the verdict Mr. Sage's counsel obtained a stay of judgment pending appeal.

At 97.5% and Accrued Interest, the purchaser receiving with each $1,000 Bond $250 of the Par Value of the Stock. THE ORANGE BELT RAILROAD of Florida extends from its connection with the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railway at Monroe, along the west bank of Lake Monroe, southwesterly through the towns of Sylvan Lake, Paola, Island Lake, Glen Ethel, Longwood, Altamont, Forest City, Toronto, Lakevlile, Clarkona, Millers, and Crown Point to Oakland, located on the south shore of Lake Apopka, a distance of 34 miles, and is being rapidly extended through to Point Pinellas, on the Gulf.

THE STEEL RAILS HAVE ALREADY BEEN BOUGHT, THE RIGHT OF WAY SECURED AND THE GRADING IS BEING RAPIDLY PUSHED TO COMPLETE THIS EXTENSION BY THE FIRST OF NOVEMBER. OR NOT LATER THAN THE FIRST OF JANUARY, 1888. This road passes through the most fertile land of the State of Florida, and the most thrifty orange belt of the State. IT IS DOING A VERY SATISFACTORY BUSINESS, AND EARNING MORE TEAN THE INTEREST ON ITS BONDED DEBT OVER AND ABOVE ALL OPERATING EXPRNSE8, AND WHEN COMPLETED WE SEE NO REASON WHY IT SHOULD NOT PAY HANDSOME ON ITS 8TOCK, AS IT IS BONDED THE I SHALL AMOUNT OF $5,000 PER MILE These Bonds are a first and only lien on the road and equipment, and in addition are guaranteed, principal and interest, by the Orange Belt Investment which own large mills at Longwood that are earning over $40,000 a year net, besides which the company have valuable real estate and other property, estimated in all, with the mills, to be worth and when the road is finished to Point Pinellas, it is estimated that the Investment Company's property will be worth at least $1,000,000, not including the Railroad and ita franchises. THE COMPANY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REDEEM THESE BONDS AT ANY TIME AFTER FIVE YEARS.

AND IT IS BELIEVED THAT THEY WILL BE ABLE TO RETIRE THEM ALL IN FIVE YEARS, AS IT IS FOR THE INTEREST OF THE GUARANTORS TO DO SO. THEY BEING THE OWNERS OF 75 PER CENT OF THE 8TOCK, WHICH, WITH THE 23 PER CENT WE OFFER, WILL OWN THE ROAD AFTER THESE BONDS HAVE BEEN RETIRED, AND WILL BE THE ONLY LIEN UPON THK RAILROAD AND EQUIPMENT AND FRANCHISE We look upon this security as a good investment, and with 25 per cent of stock bonus offered with the bonds, they should command the attention of the investing public.

Tt is without a doubt the roost Beautiful and the most Nutritious Flour in the World. The Millers have not only the most perfect mill, con tain as does all the most improved Machinery invented up to the present time, but they produce Flour Ussukpassed by any mill in the world. To prove that, we would simply state that a large quantity of this magnificent Flour is shipped annually to Europe and eaten at the principal Courts of the old world.

HOWEVER, Like everything else that has gained renown, some person or persons are tryingrto take advantage of the reputation it has gained by imitating the Name and Brand, and attempting thereby to palm off an inferior article for the genuine.
