Why She Won't be a Servant.
The reason the native
of the arguments of the rational and
godly, is that service is the sole em-
ployment in this country in which she
can be told with impunity that she is
the social inferior of anyone else, It is
the telling which she cannot put up
with. It is one thing to be conscious
that the person you are constantly as-
sociated with is better educated, better
mannered and more attractive than
yourself, and it is another to be told
at every opportuny that this isso. In
the shop, in the factory, and in other
walks of life, whatever her real super-
iors may think of her, they must treat
her as an equal. The happiness of her
life, and its mainspring, too, lies in
the consciousness that she is free to be-
come the first lady in the land, and
that she herself is to be her sole eritic

Renova's Big Blaze.
Renova had a $37,000 blaze Saturday
night, caused by a lamp. Ope of the
clerks in the dry goods store of George
J. Koser, Beventh street and Erie ave
nue, was closing the place at 9.15
o'clock and had turned down the wick
of a large lamp in the rear of the estab- |
lishment, when the oil became ignit- |
ed. He tried to throw the lamp out
the back door, but the door was lock-
ed. In passing a heavy chenille cur-
tain the flames ignited the material
and in an instant the
spreading fast. The store building
was completely destroyed. The build- |
ing adjoining the Koser store fused as
a residence and grocery store was also
consumed.
The residence of John Murphy, |
president of the First National bank, |
Renova, was gutted by fire Saturday
morning. During the fire a chimney
