Phillips. A PRAYER TO LOVE. BY C. B. LEWIS.

There was no room to doubt that Mr. James Phillips was astute. He had been so his empoyer, by his fellow clerks in the bank and by two or three detectives with whom he had come in contact. In fact, he had rooms in the same house with a detective, and they were on such intimate terms that the sleuth let him in on some of his cases, and on several occasions had said to him: "Phillips, you would have made a great detective. have the natural astuteness of a Vidocq." There were times when the bank clerk really thought of resigning his position and taking up detective work as a profession.

He had almost made up his mind in earnest when a brilliant thought came to him. He was a young man of 26, earning a salary of $20 per week. Until further promotion should come he could not hope for any increase. The place he aspired to was years away, and there was no way of adding to his income and getting married and living as he wanted to The brilliant thought that flashed upon him one evening was to turn his astuteness into criminal channels and the profits. He did not intend murder nor highway robbery nor burreap, glary, but simply to beat the public in some easy way, As he was a good penman, and was well acquainted with the ways of banks, it was natural that he should decide on forgery as his line.

The astute Mr. Phillips did not rush Into the new business in a day nor a was ready to move. first called up month; it was a whole. year before he all the cases of forgery he had heard of in connection banks and witha went over them one by one in the most methodical manner. Some had succeeded, and he satisfied himself as to why others had sent men I to prison.

Then he borrowed the detective's scrapbook and purchased published reminiscences of two or three others, and read every line connected with forgery. His deductions when he had finished were that 19 out of every 20 men arrested for the crime were burglars. They had been careless; they had left loopholes; they had neglected the most precautions. In some cases they had lacked nerve a thing he knew he possessed to a wonderful degree; in others they had taken alarm when there was not the slightest cause for it. Forgery, he decided after studying every phase of it for a year, was the very safest game in the catalogue.

When Mr. Phillips had fully, and firmly made up his mind to enter into "business" he jotted down the following points in his favor; 'he had always borne a good reputation; he was connected with a responsible house; he could imitate any man's chirography; he knew scores of men who banked at institutions outside his own; he was an adept at disguising face and volce; he was a comrade of a detective who would keep him informed of what was going on, and his friendship with the officer would serve to lull all suspicion. It was plain sailing to success. It is said that there are plenty of men who would beat a bank out of a thousand dollars and yet hesitate to take 10 from other source. Persons of wealth will beat the customs because Uncle Sam is considered fair game.

The criminal who gets ahead of a bank or other corporation does not feel that he has broken the law as if he had robbed a private house. Mr. Phillips Intended to pay all his attention banks and none of it to private individuals. Had any one suggested that beat a corner grocer out of $50 by some gumgame he would have been highly indignant. The detective had told the bank clerk that more criminals came to grief through confederates than in any other way.

There is honor among thieves up to sell a certain point. They stand to each other out at any hour when it seems that they can personally benefit by it. Mr. Phillips' astuteness warned him to go natural, trust to no man, and therefore when he got ready to put his programme in motion no living man secret. There had been certain preparations to make.

He was allowed an hour for lunch. He had been in the habit of going to a certain place patronized by other bank clerks. He purposely raised a row with the proprietor that he might have some excuse for going elsewhere. He would need to be disguised, and he had to rent a room in a convenient location to make the changes. There must be a safe place for his money, and he found it by renting a second room half a mile from the other.

To both landlords, and to account for brief stops, he claimed to be a detective. Mr. Phillips was in no hurry, and he did not propose to leave any loose ends. He went over his plans time after time, and Anally satisfied himself that they were without flaw. He had provided for every contingency likely to arise, and it only remained to rake in the plunder.

After going over this list of "availables" he finally selected a business house which had formerly banked with his people. Their signature was at his disposal, and he knew the size of their account at the new bank. He could get $5000 from them easily, and the chances were that the crime would remain undiscovered for at least a fortnight. One day the astute bank clerk was quite ready to start out. He was not a bit flurried or excited.

He left his desk at the usual moment, donned his coat and hat in the usual way and passed out upon the street to seek his lodgings and disguise himself. He did not overdo this. He simply donned a false wig and mustache, slipped on 8 hat and coat unlike his usual garments and then sauntered carelessly along into the Fourth National Bank. The substitute teller was at the pay window, as he had flgured he would be after 12 o'clock. This man did not know him.

There were three or four persons with checks to be cashed, and Phillips took his place in line. He had a forged check for $5650 In his hand, and he WAS certain that It would be paid without question. The merchants would have sworn that the signature was their own. The check was passed in, glanced at, and the teller swiftly counted out the money. He was about to pass It through the window, and Mr.

Phillips was feeling a sort of contempt for his easy ways when he paused, laid down the bills and took another look at the check on file. There were 10 seconds of pusled hesitation, and then he said: "There is a bit of irregularity here: This check is dated for tomorrow. See?" The astute Mr. Phillips saw. For a MY LADY'S MIRROR.

0 CHARMING CALLING GOWN. Smartness and elegance are combined in the most stunning costume shown by a fashionable modiste. The model is brown velvet, built on princess lines, with tiny tucks in groups over hip down each side of front. A little bolero and vest front are closed with gold of white Irish lace, which is also used for The finishing touch to this rich get-up, the latter trimmed on left side with year he had been slowly and carefully preparing for this day. For a year he had been telling himself that there could be no failure.

He had written out the check with the utmost care, and had scanned it over and over again, and yet he had dated it a and made a most egregious blunder! The thing came upon him with sledge hammer force, and in spite of his assurance he exhibited some confusion. This might have passed with a teller as a natural result had not a man with a check to be cashed exhibited undue curiosity, and had not Mr. Phillips' comrade detective come strolling in. He was known to the offlcers of the bank, and at once became interested in the Incident. "It was an oversight that I will have corrected in 20 minutes," remarked Mr.

Phillips, as he took the. check and started out, but the detective would not have it that way, and five minutes later he had penetrated the disguise of his friend. Perhaps their friendship might have stood the strain or an explanation been possible, but the teller would not have it so.

An attempt had been made to "do" and ruin him, and he proposed to see it through. The result came two months later, when the careful and deliberate and painstaking as well as extraordinarily astute Mrs. Phillips was sentenced to State prison for seven years. "Sorry for you, my boy-very sorry," said the detective, as he left him at the prison, "but you see there is a difference. Astuteness in business brings a sure reward, but astuteness in crime I leads most of 'em here." MARION Household HARLAND'S TALKS From a Woman's Point of View A quartet of queries is fired at us, a8 from a four-barreled revolver, (If there be such a weapon), before the editor can get her breath.

Our catechist has a variety of tastes, as will appear upon reading her letter: 1. I am so situated that it would be an advantage for me to speak and understand the Polish Ianguage. I shall need a grammar, some texts and a dictionary. Will some one give me the titles of a few such, together with the names and addresses of the publishers? 2. A year or I heard that somebody had discovered a way to trisect any angle.

Was that report only a fake, or. if not, where can I find a solution for this problem? 3. What's the matter with glucose as an article of diet? Is it not merely artificial grape sugar? 4. And may I ask, out of sheer curiosity, why are leases made for 99 or 198 instead of for 100 or 200 years? F. F.

The quartet is referred as a whole. Suitable for Tin Wedding. Will you kindly name a few things one can give at a tin wedding? Can one give anything, or must it be something in tin? You will do a favor by answering this as early as convenient. J. S.

'The point of the occasion is, of course, to keep tin well to the front. Success here adds much to the fun of the affair. Flowers are presented in tin funnels reversed to bouquet holders; pyramids of tin utensils are decorated with flowers and ribbons; a tin wash boiler is filled with dainty napery; father or uncle or brother presents a parcel of greenbacks done up in tin foil and labeled Tin boxes are stocked with bon-bons-there is no end to the variety of elaborations of the prevailing feature of the anniversary. Fair Exchange No Robbery. I wonder if any one would give a white Maltese poodle in exchange for dressmaking? I had a lovely one last winter, but it died.

I am very fond of all kinds of pets, and they always have the best of care. I should be very thankful if some one would exchange with me as I don't feel able to buy one. Here is a little hint for the kitchen: To clean the inside of a coffee or tea pot, dampen cloth, dip in baking soda and rub on the stained article. It makes all stains come off very easily, I hope this will find a place in your corner, and if I can help at any time I will come again. MRS.

G. P. F. This singular application of our principle of "Fair exchange of work and ideas not robbery, but gain to both parties to the transaction" may excite the amusement of readers who do not care for household pets, and others who do not affect poodies. The offer is made in good faith.

Some Practical Helps. A brace of practical "helps" are laid to our hand by 8 practical house- mother: Save your enamel tea strainer when you cannot use it any more to strain tea; It is very useful to All your fruit jars. To prevent mice from coming out of the hole they have made, nail a little plece of board over the hole; but before doing 80 put as many tacks in the board as you can and have the points on the inside next the mouse's nose. As he tries to find his way through It hurts him, and he keeps away from it. If these are of any use, kindly ac- The Social Chronicle.

Miss Tarbell lectured to AL large audience or rather told why she as an individual does not desire the ballot at Mrs. Charles H. Utley's residence yesterday. She is a womanly woman, more feminine in appearance than her I rather strong, forceful writings against monopolles might lead one to believe. Her voice is decidedly pleasing, with a sweet, youthful freshness, and although she pitches it in a low key, it has a carryIng quality which reached the most remote of her hearers yesterday.

She was in black, as she is wearing mourning for her father who died last year. She was introduced by Mrs. William Northrup, who is herself a brilliant speaker, and in her introduction she pointed to several significant facts which have recently deepened the belief of anti in their convictions that women will not be benefited by the ballot. Miss Tarbell first spoke of the claim of certain women to "rights' -saying to find out one's duty and then to perform it is more to the purpose of good living. One's duty done one's rights are pretty generally sure to be secured.

Not what can women claim of the state but what can they best do for the state to exercise the faculty of citizenship is the question Miss Tarbell propounded. She spoke of the low state of civilization in India and the consequent degradation of woman, also of the Turk and other oriental races. Greece, she said, honored woman--the mother of the race. Maternity was Idealized and elevated to the supreme civic service a woman could render the state. Rome built upon this by laying broader foundations for the home--Christianity pointed to mercy, charity, service as woman's debt to the world.

intensifled the moral force of Germany, and France and England exalted her intellectually, socially and politically. With or without the ballot, with the exception of benighted races, the trend of the laws, the efforts of men, legislatures and cabinets have been toward bettering the condition of womenwomen as they are--and these things will go on improving. Miss Tarbell belleves. without the ballot. Women have sufficient occupation now--sufficient civic work to perform- in their houses.

their philanthropies, to protest against rather than demand more obligations, and the ballot, Miss Tarbell pointed out. will fall on women, if it ever does come, with a tremendous weight of responsibility. of this was given as her opinion. deduced from studies and investigations of the conditions of women In history. Aspasia and Sapho in Greece, Madame Roland, Marie Antoinette and Madame de Stael in France were women she mentioned as powerful factors In the affairs of state.

Her address was not in the nature of argument. Miss Tarbell frankly confessed that she had not studied the question from either the standpoint of the suffragist or non-suffragist sufficiently to discuss it other than in the light of giving the reasons which influence her against suffrage for women. Only two real points of objection were made by Miss Tarbell, the probability that the number of bad, purchasable, Ignorant women whom the universal suffrage would enfranchise would, she more than outrank women of intelligence and integrity. Her second point and one obvious to all observing women was the unreasoning partisanship of women. If the ballot is ever extended to women, Misg Tarbell will use it as a duty rather than a privilege.

Very attractive "dishes" for salads, entrees, and some of the desserts, are made from beets, carrots, turnips, peppers and apples, while red cabbages, hollowed out and having the outer leaves curled over, look like huge roses.

When used for individual service, the pepper, turnip or apple should be set on a lace paper dolly on a small plate. The larger vegetables, however, are set on the cloth on dollies, unless there is danger of staining the cloth, in which case a plate should be set under the doily for protection. Wooden toothpicks are used to hold leaves and husks in position that handling need not spoil the beauty. Bananas, oranges lemons, apples, grapes of white, red and purple, with raisins, offer color schemes easily carried out in all dec- orations. Pretty Place Cards.

Chrysanthemums are a satisfactory flower to use, but if one decides on using some of the highly colored vegetables, let flowers (sparingly used) be white. Tiny paper pumpkins make attractive place-cards, or, if one 1g skilled in the use of water colors, clever ones may be made from water color board decorated with fruits or flowers. Tiny canoes of birch bark, to hold the boutonniere. make acceptable souvenirs. If one has not the time or talent to make place-card favors, very clever little papier mache bonbon boxes may be bought, representing roast turkey, mince pie, pumpkins, or other designs appropriate the season.

Tiny wishbones polished with sandpaper and tied to a card are very satisfactory, and suggest the kindly thought of the hostess. Chestnut Pudding. Boll one quart large chestnuts In salted water for half an hour; then remove shells and all brown skin; put kernels through a meat mincer. Cook one-fourth cup rice in one and one-half cups milk until very tender; make a boiled custard of one-half cup milk, yolkes of three eggs, one-half cup sugar; add the chestnuts and rice and put all through a sieve: add one-half teaspoonful vanilla and one-half teaspoonful lemon extract; freeze as for ice cream; then pack in mold and bury for three hours in ice and salt. When ready to serve, let stand a few minutes in a warm room and the cream will slip out unbroken.

Garnish top with Maraschino cherries and citron leaves wreath base with whipped cream and the cherries. Table Decorations. The centerpiece for the Thanksgiving table should symbolize the fruitfulness of the year, that, properly, for which thanks are given. The basket may be simple or elaborate As the taste inclines, but the simpler it is, the more in keeping with the spirit of the season. Nuts may be used in filling the basket.

Let the assortment include hickory nuts, butternuts, black walnuts chestnuts. For the Gistinct purpose of decoration, quinces may be employed, and these together with winter pears and apples should be burnished highly. Finish the front centerpiece with bunches of purple grapes, velvety in their bloom. At the base of the basket may be arranged a bank of green grapes, or, preferably, dried grains. Ears of corn with the husks drawn back and made to stand out like the petals of a flower, will trim mantel, sideboard and dish cabwill lend a beautiful a touch of color to nets artistically.

Bittersweet vine with the brilliant pods of the wild rose dark corners, and grain tied in bunches with wild grasses adds to the pleturesqueness of a fruit piece. If some brilliantly colored autumn leaves have been pressed they will effectively decorate the table. made of pumpkins, filled with red, green and vellow colored fruits are used on both sideboard and dining table, but the atriped. citron is even more Pilgrim. Dangers in Hair Dye.

eyesight. MEA CULPA. It hardly pays to dye one's hair if one is not sure that the dye is Innocuous. There have been several cases in Paris lately which have opened the eyes of coiffeurs, and especially the eyes of men and women who, for some reason or other, dislike the color of their hair. A few days ago a French girl was anxious to turn her auburn locks jet black.

She bought a certain dye which, after Its application, caused her whole body to break out into sores, The doctor she consulted, supposing that the dye she used brought on her malady, applied a small portion of it to another person, which produced sores on her skin. He advised the girl to sue the colffeur, and now the case has caused a great deal of excitement, It has been proved that in all dyes there 18 a mixture of paraphenyline, which is a strong poison, and is very Injurious to the skin, for it corrupts the blood. Doctors say that people who are predisposed to rheumatism, arthritis or gout, should never use a dye of any sort without consulting a physician. Many have been the Injuries produced by dyes, but young women who are averse to confessing that they change the color of their hair, suffer in silence. I knew one who was threatened with blindness and she suffered until she nearly lost her eyesight.

a long while her mother, thinking that the disease was caused by the dye, consulted the famfly physician, and it was only after many years, when the girl stopped dyeing her hair, that she recovered her do confess my sin, my grievous sin!

He must hold his head up." Mr. Mayhall laughed. practice economy, you know, 18 often humiliating, often he said. "I know of a poor and economical young man who, about to marry, wished to impress upon his bride the necessity of the strictest frugality. "Accordingly, having arranged his programme in advance, he invited her to take Sunday dinner at his home with his mother and himself.

"All sat down to the table on the appointed day, but, as he was about to begin the carving, the young man pointed sternly to a stale crust of bread, laid on a plate with other debris, for consignment to the garbage pail. He had, you must understand, put the bread there himself, to point a moral with. 'Mother, said he, 'a good slice of bread?

The toughness of pineapples is al most entirely eliminated by slicing the fruit up and down, from stem to blossom end, instead of through the core as is usually done. Thrust a fork into the blossom end to hold the apple steady, and slice until you come to the hard, pithy core which can then be discarded.

We attended the lodge for three or four years, Since then I have never attended any lodges or paid any dues, through misfortune. My husband died four years, ago this month, and since have lived with my son and daughter, the latter being married.

Some time ago I noticed in your column an appeal for some stamps for a poor young boy out West who was starting a collection. I enclose herewith a number of specimens in the hope that they will afford some encouragement to a struggling collector.

Stamp collecting is a hobby which most boys ride for a longer or shorter period, and which is as instructive and enjoyable as most boyhood fancies, and in some cases becomes source of permanent pleasure. It is not as popular in Buffalo as in most cities. I would be glad to have the addresses of fellow-collectors living here who might have duplicates to trade, and who would generally be interested In stamp collecting. I think if this matter were brought to their attention you would receive a good many donations for your protege. P.
