The Money Making Home
How do women make money at
liome? is a constantly recurring ques
tion. Some women who have tried
and failed say they know it cannot be
done, but others prove it is done. It is
almost impossible, however, where there
are little ones to be eared for and the
mother with children needing her care
should be free from all financial worry
of this sort. There comes a time in the
life of every woman when children are
(,'rown, married and gone from the
liome, then is the time when the ex
perience of years may well be turned
to account. Married at twenty, chil
dren married'or gone by the time she
is forty there stretches before the av
erage woman twenty years more of the
three score she can claim and still he
well within' the Biblical age limit.
It may not be possible to make great
sums of money in home occupations but
there is this to consider. A little in
come in the home goes much further
than twice the amount made in the busi
ness world where there are constant
expenses to be met. Any farmer woman
will tell you that the small sum received
tor butter, eggs and poultry or from
the occasional sale of a braided rug' or
a few pounds of carpet strips cut and
sewed for weaving, soon grows into a
nest egg of ostrich size.
Only a few years ago every fair
sized town had its woman's exchange
but women became discontented be
cause they thought the commissions
charged exorbitant. In reality, a well
conducted business of this sort offers
a splendid solution for the problem of
disposing of women's home-made
articles. And what a charm there is

Allentown, Pa., Jan. IS. —Two hours

Association in the heart of the city's

flames.
An 18-inch Are wall separating the

saved the latter, in which were the of
fices and dormitories of the association, !
the American Business College and Mer

of the Y. M. C. A. also was ruined, andt
the total loss, it is estimated, will ag
gregate $25,000. It is fully insured. j
With great difficulty the firemen!
saved the "Chronicle" and "News''!

are believed to have caused the fire.

Kingsnorth looked at his daughter

His child speaking the two most hated
of all words at his ov, u dinner table
and in laudatory terms! lie could
scarcely believe it. He looked at her
: a moment and then thundered:
j "How dare you! How'dare you!"
Angela smiled a little amusedly tol-
I eraut smile as she looked frankly at
her father and answered:
"This is, exactly the old fashioned
tone we lCuglisb take to anything we
don't understand. And that is why
other countries are leaving us in the
race, 'l'live is a nation living within
a few hours' journey from our doors,
vet millions of English people are as
ignorant of them 'as if they lived ljti
Senesambia." She paused, looked once
more straight into her father's eyes
and said. "And you. father, seem to
1 be as ignorant as the worst of them!"
"Angela!" cried her sister in hor
-or.
N.*thaniel laughed good naturedly,
leaned across to Angela and said:
' "1 see otir little sister has been
reading the sensational magazines.
Yes'?"'
"I've done more than that." replied
Angela. "In Nice a month ago were
two English members of parliament
who had taken the trouble to visit the
"ountry they were supposed to assist
in governing. They told me that a
••onditiou of misery existed throughout
♦he whole of Ireland that was incredi
ble under a civilized government."
"Radicals, eh?" snapped her father.
"No: Conservatives. One of them
had once held the office of chief secre
tary for Ireland and was Ireland's
most bitter prosecutor until he visited
the country. When lie saw the
wretchedness of her people he stopped
his stringent, methods and began cast
ing about for some way of lessening
'he poor people's torment."
"The more shame to him to talk like
that to a girl. And. what's more, you
had no right to listen to him. A Con
servative indeed! A fine one he must
be!"
"He is. 1 don't see why the Liberal
party should have all the enlighten
ment and the Conservative party all
the bigotry."
"Don't anger your father!" pleaded
Monica.
"Why, little Angela has come Hack
to us quite a revolutionary." said Na
thaniel.
"Leave the table!" shouted her fa
ther.
Without a word Angela got up quiet
ly and left the room. Her manner was
entirely unmoved. She had spoken
from her inmost convictions. The fact
that they were opposed to her father
was immaterial. She loathed tyranny,
and his method of shutting the mouths
of those who disagreed with h!m wa>
particularly obnoxious to her. It was
also most Ineffectual with her. Fron
childhood she had always spoken a-
Khe felt. Xo (liseipline checked Iter
Freedom of speech as well as freedom
of thought was as natural and essen
tial to her as breathing.
From that time she saw but little
of her father. When he died he left
her to her brother's care. Kingsnortb
made no absolute provision for her.
She was to be dependent on Nathaniel
When the time came that she seemeu
to wish to marry, if her brother ap
proved of the match, he should make
a handsome settlement on her.
In response to her request Nathaniel
allowed her to go with him to Ireland
on his tour of inspection.
Mr. Chichester was actively engaged
at the Old Bailey on an important
criminal case, so Monica also joined
them.
Everything Angela saw in Ireland
appealed to her quir k sympathy and
gentle heart. It was just as she had
thought and read and listened to. On
every side she saw a kindly people
borne down by the weight of poverty,
lives ruined by sickness aud the laclt
of nourishment—a splendid race per
ishing through misgovernnient and in
tolerant ignorance.
Angela went about among the peo
pie and made friends with them.
Tbey were chary at first of taking her
to their hearts. She was of the hated
Saxon race. What was she doing
there—she, the sister of their, till now,
absentee landlord? She soon won
them over by her appealing voice and
kindly interest.
All this Angela did in direct opposi
tion to her brother's wishes and her
sister's exhortations.
The morning of the meeting she had
ridden some miles to visit a poor fam
ily. Out of five three were In bed
with low fever. She got a doctor for
them, gave them money to buy
saries, and, with a promise to return
the next day. she rode away.

HEART
By J. Hartley Manners
I mastery of his power communicated
itself to her. It pulsed in her blood
and throbbed in her brain. For the
| first time she realized what a marvel
ous force was the call of the patriot.
To listen and watch a man risking life
and liberty in the cause of his coun
i try her heart and her uilnd and her
| soul went out to him.
When the soldiers marched on to the
scene she was paralyzed with fear.
When an order to fire was given she
wanted to ride Into their midst and
! cry out to them to stop. But she was
unable to move baud or foot.
When the smoke had thiuned and
she saw lying motionless on the ground
the bodies of men who a moment be
fore had boon full of life and strength;
when was added to that the horror of
j the wounded crying out with pain, her
first Impulse was to fly from the sight
; of the carnage. She mastered that mo
ment of fear and plunged forward,
' calling to the groom to follow her. She
ordered the body of O'Connell, who
had been hit. taken to her own home.
1 The long. slow, tortuous jourue.v
home, the men slowly following with
the ghastly, mute body on the rude lit
tcr, became a living memory to her
for all the remainder of her life.
She glanced down every little while
at the stone white face and shuddered
, as she found herself wondering if she
would ever bear bis voice again or see
j those great blue eyes flash with his
\ fierce courage and devotion.
! As they neared her brother's bouse
I stragglers began to follow curiously.
Sad looking raeu and weary women
joined the procession wonderingly. All
guessed it was some fresh outrage of
the soldiers.
It seemed to Angela that an infinity
of time bad passed before they entered
the grounds attached to the Kings
north house. She sent a man on ahead
to order a room to be prepared and a
doctor sent for. As she saw her broth
er coming forwr.nl to meet her with
knit brows and steru eyes she nerved
herself to greet him.
"What is tliis. Angel!?" he asked,
looking in ama::ement at the strange
procession.
"Another martyr to our ignorant
government. Nathaniel." and she press
ed on through the drive to the house.

indignation at h!s

the wounded man was. He
ordered the soldiers to take the man

let O'Connell rest the-e until a doctor
could patch him up. It might be dan
gerous to take him back without medi
cal treatment. 11c assured Nathaniel
that the moment they could move him
lie would be lodged in the county jail.

as the sorry procession passed 011 to

; commanded her to come to him at

"Why did you bring that man here?"

! "Such scoundrels are better dead."
' "I don't think so. Nor do I think

j outrageous! Monstrous!"
! "I couldn't leave bim with those
heartless wretches to die in their

"He leaves here the moment a doc

"Very well. Is that all?"
"No. it isn't!" Kingsnorth tried to
control his anger. After a pause be
j continued: "I want no more of these
foolhardy, quixotic actions of yours.
I've heard of your visiting these
j wretched people s —going iuto fever
dens. Is that conduct becoming to your
name? Think a little of your station
in life and what it demands."
"I wish you did a little more."
"What?" he shouted, all his anger
returned.
"There's no need to raise your
voice.'' Angela answered quietly. "I
;am only a few feet away. I repeat
i that I wish you thought a little more
lof your obligations. If yon did and
! others like you in the same position
you are in. there would be no such hoi»-
rible scenes as I saw today—a man
shot down among his own people for
speaking the truth."
"You saw It?" Nathaniel asked in dis
may.
"I did. I not only saw, but I beard.
I wish you had too. I heard a man
lay bare his heart and his brain and
his soul that others might know the
light In them. I saw and beard a man
offer up his life that others might
know some gleam of happiness in
their lives. It was wonderful! It was
heroic! It was godlike!"
"If I ever hear of your doing such a

canonize him and put a halo around
the name of Kingsnortb. To me it

and vain and ignorant—the power of
money over intellect. How did we be

of land? A Kingsnorth swindled its
rightful owner—lent him money on
usury, bought up bis bills and his
mortgages and when he couldn't pay
foreclosed on him. No wonder there's
a curse on the village and on us!"
Kingsnorth tried to speak, but she
stopped bim:
"Wait a moment. It wns a good
stroke of business taking this estate
away. Oh. yes. it was a good stroke
of business! Our name has been built
up on 'good strokes of business.' Well.
I tell you it's a bad stroke of business
when human lives are put into the
hands of such creatures as we Kings

"Stoii!" cried Nathaniel, outraged to
the innermost sanctuary of his being.
"Stop! You don't speak like one of

"After this—the best thing—the only

"Whenever you wish."
"I'll make you an allowance."
"Don't let it be a burden."
"I've never been so shocked—so

"I am glad. From my cradle I've

you are capable of the feeling too.
Frankly. I didn't think you were."
"We'll talk no more of this." and
Nathaniel began to pace the room.
"I am finished." and Angela went to
