"You'd think, to near hiin talk, that a sew
ing woman's lif- wiia a pleasout one.vir else
his heurt'so small tis his excuses for putting
ua off. Come, I'ni going to hunt another
shop."
The speaker wase shabbily dressed woman,
tinder middle age, evidently a widow or a
careworn matron. There was in her f uce the
familiar traces of t are prematurely and ab
normally developed by a hand to mouth ex
istence. The words of the woman were overheard
by a reporter and he bhadowod her to he!
iniscrablo homo, a description of which it
would bo imposyiblo to give and do tho sub
ject jtistico. A rickety bed, two crippled
chairs, a table as unhealthy ns its owner, but
unlike its owner iu ilmt it ba4 something to
lean on tho windo.r sill n cook stovo with
tho oveu door off at.d two lefrs gone, yet fully
oapuUoof jierforiniitg all tho meager offices
to which it was ever subjected. Here lived,
or, to borrow a famous author's satire, here
hud not yet died, u family of five iu a single
room. .
The woman was imt in auv sense a '"hero-
iuo in rags" of tl.o typical sort. Sho was
neither cducntod nor refined, but he was a
woman with a sou:, and move's the pity a
stomach also.
"STITCH, STITCH. STITCH."
Tho writer doe not pretend to rrive her
langtiajro, for, like her gown, it was sadly out
of repair. Clothiii' her statement in hisown
word, he offers it to one-half of the world
who don't know liow their fellow mortals
live, as n mes-ago from the other half:
''Yes,-' said who, "forty cents tor a dozen
shirts without and lifty cents for a dozen
with collars is nil Solomon pavs, and I cant
livo ut it. I just -.old Fanny so, and we are
goiu to look around, homo managers fur

quire a deposit, cit'ier. All in all. he's one of
the best, men in the business."
"Theso shirts int. st bo very easy to make,

"Not so easy a you would imagine," re
ified she. "Those at forty cents musr have a
yoko put ou, tho fronts both faced, wrist
bands on tho sleovis, and on tho neck a band.
They must bo hei imed and three cornered
gusbets put on liotli sides and on tho joining
of tho sleeves, and there nro five buttons and
button holes. Th se at lii'ry cents nro the
same, except they have collars uistead of
neckbands."
"How muny do you manufacture in a
dayi"
"That depends h how early I commence,
and bow lato I sew at nights. By beginning
at 7 in tho moruinj and sewing until 0 in the
evening I can ma :u one dozen in a dav, but
this is ti good day's work and is seldom ac
complished, ns it is only by constant stitch,
stitch, stitching I -1111 do it at all. Then I
must lose tiio limo of carrying home the shirts
and bringing back tho bundles, so I find the
work very, very s:ow Indeed, and am satisfied
if I muko five d zen forties or four dozen

"That is $'J a w ok; can you livo ou itf
"Yes; we maim je, when Johnny (nodding
to the Ikiv) earns 1 nough to pay tho machine
rent, which is 75 cents; if ho does not, we

Here was another revelation. How would
it do for some f the St. Louis Jellibys to
make, an effort at "he soul (if they can find It)
of the monster who charges this woman one-
tenth of tho value if a sewing machine weekly

"Is there plentv of this kind of work.'"
"o, indeed. Vhy, when I first started
out to find it I i-alked myself down every
day for more thai a week. I watched the
daily papers aud answered every advertise

proprintors gentlemanly and some rough and

uinuiy, although they were shut down for

He told mo when to come back. I went out of
there with a much lightened heart. The next
day I got the sew lug you now see. I have
kept It ever since. I try to do my work prop
erly, but they are always on tho lookout for
mistakes. I suppe all are uiike in this re
spect, though," a id she turned to her ma
chino and went to work at breakneck speed
to mako up for lu t time.
NOT A SCIENTIFIC ECONOMIST.
IIow tho work did Dy through that ma
chine! One conic not help recalling, as be
watched tho ovei-vorked seamstress, old be
fore her time ui d bent wi:h care, Hood's
"Song of tho Bhirt,"and woudering what a
talo the linen could tell if endowed with life.
"Don't sow; I vnnt to ask you a fow more
questions, and I will pay you for your lost
timo; sec, here is a day s wuge3 in advance,"
soip the visitor, 1: ying a haif dollar on tho
machine. The woman's eyes fairly sparkled,
and sho turned Uur fuco for the first time
lighted up with real expression.
"How about th' other branches of the bus
iues, tho pants and overalls, for instance i"
inquired tho visitor, roturuin-r, to the subject.
"They uro mu'. h worse. 1 went to several
of tueso iuunufa turors and aked for work,
but obtained none, as tiiey wcrosupplied with
seamstresses. lh.t 1 asked the price, and was

demand for eiiwr things v.as n?T)onsible, but
tho woman was not n scientific economist.

"How much lent do you pay here P in
quired the visitor.
"Two dollars a month. Sometimes Johnny
makes enough to pay tho rent."
The woman was evidently proud ol
"Johnny."
Tho reporter withdrew, resolved to place
on paper a picl ure, not tho locst bit over
drawn, of what he hud seen and heard.

Mrs. JeSreys-Lowia has probably had a
more varied professional career than any
other actress of her age in this country.
She has played from oua end of the United
States to the other, even penetrating to the
wild regions of Alaska.
Her experiences la consequence have been
sometime very amusing. Ia one wild, far
away settlement, where she played for one
night only, the settlers were so wrought up
by the thought of the forthcoming show that
they turned the day into a holiday and ceased
all work. When the doors of the hall were
opened the inhabitants marched in hugging
bags of peanuts, candy and other holiday ed
ibles.
Upon Mrs. Jeffreys-Lewis' entrance in the
first scone she was saluted by the rattle and
crackling of peanuts and a vigorous conver-
tional buzz.
Airs. Lewis stopped the scene and walked
to the row of candles whu:h formed the foot
lights. Her speech was brief but vigorous. She
promised tho audience that when they had
finished their dessert and told all thou; stories
the performance would go on. Meanwhile
she was perfectly willing to wait
Cer defiant tone gained her the immediate
respect of the audience, and there were cries
of "Bully for you, old gal," and "We'll see
you through;" but a profound and lasting
quietus was given the entire house when a
great, rough epec-imen of humanity, known
as "tho ttSTor," arose, and leaciug against

After Twenty Years.
Baltimore. April 20, 18S7. For over
twenty years I have been troubled with
ulcerated bowels and bleeding piles, and
grew very weak and thin from constant
loss of blood. I have used four bottles of
B. B. B., and have gained 15 pounds in
eight, and feel better in general health
than I have for ten years. I recommend
your B. B. B. as the best medicine 1 have
ever used, and owe my improvement to
the use of Botanic Blood Balm.

A GOOD EXPERIMENT.
Meridian, Miss., July 12, 1887. For
a number of vears I have suffered untold
agony from the effects of blood poison.
I had my case treated by several promt'
nent physicians, but received but little, if
any relief. I resorted to all sorts of pat
ent medicines, spending a large amount
of money, but yet getting no better. My
attention was attracted by the cures said
to have been affected by B. l. IV, and
commenced taking it merely as an exper-
ment, having but little faith in the re
sults. To my utter surprise I soon com
menced to improve, and deem nusclf lo
day a well and hearty person all owing
to the excellent Qualities of B. B. B. I
cannot commend it too highly lo those
suffering from blood poison.
