Mrs. Evangeline Heart* lias intro duced In the Colorado house of repre sentatives three bills in which she takes special interest, and. being the inly woman in this assembly, her wishes will receive respectful consid eration on that account, says the Den ver News, as well as because of merit in the bills themselves. One of these bills proposes to amend the state constitution so as to enable the state to go into business, the prin cipal object being to enable It to open coal mines on state lands and operate them for the benefit of the public. Another bill provides that all property acquired after marriage, except by de scent or bequest, shall be jointly owned by husband and wife and shall not be alienated without the consent of both. It does not interfere with prop erty owned by either before marriage or acquired by descent or bequest afterward, but aims to make the earn ings of both after marriage •'commu nity" property. The third bill provides that property exempt from execution or attachment, such as household goods, etc., cannot be mortgaged or sold without the written Joint consent of both husband and wife.

She made her debut early In December and took society by storm. Her coloring Is of that exquisite brilliancy born of the mild airs of the Pacific const. She is tall and graceful, neither slender nor stout, but lissome and pliant. She has auburn hair, has blue eyes and is of the style that Titian loved to paint. She was educated at Georgetown convent and possesses a gracious presence and n kindly air which wins her friends at, the first meeting.

The first French girls' club has just been formed in Paris and Is looked upon with Intense disapproval, it Is said, by the conservative. It Is called the Association des Etudiantes, and the membership is limited to students of certain colleges, Including the Uni versity of Paris, the Sell obi of Fine Arts and the School of Decorative Art. The club had great difficulty In se curing a home, as the landlords seemed to think It a highly Improper thing, but rooms finally were found in a building belonging to a scientific society. The rules adopted by the club are sufficiently stringent, one would think, to quiet, the fears of the opponents.

The Valor of a Trade. | I remember some years ago. when 1 was a very young man, meeting John Roach, the great shipbuilder, In his shipyard at Chester, Pa. I remember, too, what he said then filnuit the value of a trade to the boy. j "Young man," he said, laying his great, broad hand on my shoulder nnd looking at mc earnestly with his keen utecl blue Irish eyes, "next to a clear conscience a trade Is as good a thing as any young man can have In this country. You can carry it with you all your life long; you have to pay ; neither rent nor taxes upon it and it : will help you around a sharp corner i when most other things fall." I have never forgotten that utter ance from a man who started in life— after landing in New York from Ire- I land -n helper to a machinist, who be came the leading shipbuilder of his time and who up to the hour when he I was stricken with a fatal illness could take the place of any of ills workmen, whether It was a man driving rivets or an expert putting together the most delicate part of a steamship's machin ery. Something very like what John Roach said I hoard another great man, who is now dead, Bay. This was Peter Cooper, a man of whom American boys cannot know too much and whom they cannot certainly too much admire. "If I had my way." said the venera ble philanthropist on tiie occasion to which I refer, "I would give everybody a trade. Then I would have him stick to it, love it and l>c good to it. If he does, it will do him good."—Weekly Bouquet. i One Fare to U'anhlngton and Return. Via the Lehigh Valley Railroad. April 3.

Boar* the /) The Kind You Have Always Bought T ORGANIZED CHARITY. ITS METHODS ARE WRONG AND ITS RESULTS HARMFUL. What the Poor Generally Heed Is Justice, Wot Charity—Give Men a Chance to Work and Don't Rob Them of Their Labor's Prnlts. The Arena for March contains an in teresting and sensible article on "Or ganised Charity" from the pen of Charles B. Patterson. Following Is an extract from the article: Society, the state and the nation an* responsible for the existing order of things. There are In this country tens of thousands of ablebodled persons out of employment. These masses must be led lu one way or another. If they could obtain work, the labor would help to strengthen their physical bod ies and also develop their minds, but If they have to live on what they receive from charity organisations or private individuals, then there Is little hope of civic progress. An unholy system that makes It possible for certain persons to own thousands of times more of this world's goods than they need or can possibly use carries within Itself ab ject poverty. One extreme begets the other—the millionaire is father to the tramp. Then let society and the na tion, who are responsible alike for the wealth and the poverty, find some way whereby the poor shall have an oppor tunity to work and shall receive suffi cient compensation at least to hold soul and body together. Let our social lenders and legislators cease making slaves or beggnrs of people through their unrighteous charity. lat them not heap up judgment and condemna tion upon themselves, but rather try at least to do something that will make human existence for countless thou sands less of a struggle for bread. This nation has been likened to a great family of which the highest and lowest members form equally Impor tant parts—a republic In which each works for all and all work for each. It Is only HO In name, however, as the statement Is a mere figure of speech. A family that would fall to care for Its weakest members, one wherein the strong would prey upon the weak, would hardly be considered worthy of the name. A nation that allows Its sons and daughters to starve when it might pro vide them with sufficient work to In sure a comfortable living and at the same time sends thousands of its wage earners to the distant parts of the earth to slaughter their brother men cau hardly be regarded as having any of the paternal or maternal instiucts awakened. "But," says some one, "pa ternal government Is Infernal!" and our so called wise men take up the cry and harp upon It. attempting to show the dire Injuries that would result to the nation In helping Its own. It is right. It would seem, to take fathers and sons from their homes and give them employment In fighting men, hut it Is not right for the government to engage in any extensive operation wherein tens of thousands of men might be employed, not In away that would carry distress or sorrow into the family life, as war does, but by which every participant would be benefited. Tlilhk of the great amount of good that could be accomplished by an nrmy of peace—ln building good roads, in de veloping waste land and in doing many other things in which tho government could profitably employ men! Such public enterprise would strengthen our country and develop our commerce in away that neither war nor any other agency could ever approach. Organiz ed charity would not thrive to the de gree that it now enjoys, and nonpro duccrs would not draw fat salaries in dispensing It. There should be no need or toleration of nine-tenths of such or ganizations as now exist. If every one able to work were given an opportunity to do so. those unable to work might perhaps be cared for by organized charity, but in nil probability they would be cored for by members of their own families, who would doubt less earn sufficient to support them selves ns well as those unable to work. The organized charity needed by tin' world today is a righteous distribu tion of Its wealth—not that it should be divided equally among all Its people (because If it were It would not remain so for any length of time), but that the laborer Is entitled, first, to work and. secondly, to a fair proportion of what he produces, and If in his service to humanity he become infirm or unable to work then his past labor should en title him to be cared for in some way other than by a charity organization. If the fear of future poverty could le taken out of the minds of people, a great burden would be lifted, because man's fears are often greater concern ing the future than the present. If tho apprehension of poverty were removed. It would tend to stop the mad scramble after wealth that causes many to lose the highest and truest aims In life. The thought of future poverty and de pendence stifles the vital energies and tends to make many useless members of society, but if one could be assured of work and of enough material means to keep him in comparative comfort when unable to work there would un doubtedly be a rndlcal change in the minds of many regarding the advan tages that might accrue from vast ac cumulations of wealth. If organized charity is going to become of real serv ice In life, let It. try to secure for the unemployed work that will develop them both physically and mentally. The men and women that are employ ed will lead more moral and upright lives than those that are unemployed. Society, the state and the nation will be uplifted, strengthened and redeem ed when every one is engaged In some service that makes for the good of all.
