Beriha Claiche. A Caristian
lady ooce said to me: ‘I must
introduce you to Mrs. X—, She
talks so interes:ingly of her life
in Paris. She telis me that
when she was there she often
had a girl to sew for her for 25
cents a day.” ‘‘Well” snapped
I, “if I had ever paid a poor wo
man 25 cents for sewing for me
all day long I should be ashamed
to own it.”
~ Of course after that npothing
‘more was said about introducing
me to Mrs. X—. Not long
afterward Mrs. X—, the interes

bouse and her admiring friend
became one of its inmates. Then
it made me unspeakably happy
