1 POOR INVALID. To the Readers of the Sunshine Column: were all sizes, all shapes, all colors, and all pretty. Then a box of dollies was sent to the far South to a community of little children who were doll-less. More ladies-, were interested in this box than in any previous enterprise undertaken by the Sunshiners. The box also contained a large number of bright and pretty pictures for the picture-less wails of cabin homes, where a book means to discover the name lot his unknown inamorata, but without success.

Then one night he happened to visit a friend's house to wltnese some amateur theatricals, and there met an old acquaintance whom he had not seen for some years.

"There are two kinds of young men. One Intends to take care of his money and the other intends to let his money take care of him. It isn't worth while giving advice to the second, but to the tlrst, who is a young man of sense and perseverance, I should say keep out of Wall Street, lie is foolish to attempt any kind of speculation. If he has any money to start with let him invest it safely and go to work and make Borne more. I attribute my success chiefly itothe rule of always buying when every one.

When I would like to tell what I am doing to ANOTHER WOMEN'S NEWSPAPER After the failure of Alfred Harrasworth with his Dally Mirror, no man probably would have dared to start another woman's paper, but women rush in where men fear to tread, and a woman is going to start a daily paper for women. This adventurous person is Ella Hamilton Durley of Chicago, and the paper is to be known as The Chicago' Daily Review. It will not be devoted to the subjects ordinarily called feminine, but will- range over the whole field of human Interest, it will endeavor to give to the growing class of women who take an intelligent interest In public affairs a brief daily review of the world's history, omitting all that Is local, trivial or seaudnlous.

Among recent instances may be mentioned that of Mies Mary McCann, the-17-year-old heroine of last, summer's terrible Slocum disaster. Mies McCann, it may be remembered, was, at the time of the calamity, a patient in a hospital on North Brother Island, but as soon as she heard of the horrible affair she insisted on leaving her bed, dressing and making her way down to the short where she found the water -covered with dead and drowning victims. When she left the -hospital MIks McCann had no thought of the heroine she was. to become, but as soon as she saw women and little children struggling -for life her illness was forgotten, she Jumped into the water, and ultimately succeeded in saving no fewer than six lives.

She would probably have saved more if it had not been that she fell to the ground insensible. As soon as her heroism became known Ml cm McCann began to receive offers of marriage by every mall. First in twos and threes, then Tin dozens. An finally in hundreds, until upwards of fourteen huu dred men of every age, -nationality and proi fesslon had laid their hearts at her feet.
