of the* house, enteiing he psrlor f om the
sl.itns-roon . Tt.ere w- re f e h tr c s of
powder on her fact—for it s ,’t tvery day
a census enumerat r all . As she'earn *
into the r om she was arranging a tibbon
that encircl’d her mck.

-
"Oh. not a< all," stid the lady of the
hous , flushing wrh pardonable piide, for
the pi ca cf needlework referred to was
her first effort in that direction.
The census taker laid her bo k end pen
cil and umbiella on the floor, and cr.ssed
the room to the. mantel, on top of which
was an embroidered photo-holder that had
caught her f mlnine fancy.
"Do you kn w," she said with charming
familiarity, "th tld give anything in the.
world If I co Id do work like that? Your
first att rrpt? You don’t mean to tell me,"
stepping c.oser anil examining ir more
critically. “Well, I’ll be switched if I can
believe it. I've been in ever so many
houses since I began to ’rubber neck,' or
take the census, 1 should say, (at which
they both laughed), but I don’t ihink I’ve
seen anything in the embroidery line that
comes up to that. Truly, is it your first
attempt?

I’ve done some myself, but I never did
any of the raised work. That’s a beauti

ask how many different stitches you have?
“Before you came in I was thinking to
myself, ’Well, now I w-onder what for
looking person lives here?’ Do you know,
I have so much fun taking the census and
getting ’rubber’ that I wish the position
would last all summer. Whenever I come
into a house like I did here and am shown
Into the parlor to wait for the lady. I
always try to guess what kind of a look
ing woman she is.”
"May I ask you what sort of a person
you imagined I was?" asked the lady of
the house, whose curiosity was aroused at
this form of amusement.
"Now, that makes me laugh,” the cen
sus-taker went on to eoy, resuming her
’seat and picking her things off the floor.
“I have to laugh because I was so far out
of the way. .You’re about my high:, aren't
you—five feet seven? Well. I had it all
figured out in my mind how you were e
little woman of five feet two or three, and
that you wore your hair pompadour
Wouldn’t that kill you?” At which both
again laughed heartily.
"But sometimes I hit It pretty close.

had known her for years. We got real
well ftequainted before I left.”
At that moment a woman passed on the
opposite side of the street. The census
taker saw her, and was moved to make
this observance:
“Gee wbHliktos. there’s style for you!
That's a swell hat she’s wearing, but
it don't look well on her. I saw- the same
thing the other day on State street, and
they wanted $lB for it. Her skirt hangs
nice, but I don’t like the way her waist
hikes up in the back. How do you like
those new sailors they're wearing this
summer? I like them on some women,
and on others they look horrid. The
crowns are awful high and the brims are
so broad! They look well enough on a
tall person—you or I would look stylish
In one—but it seems as if every little
dampy woman you meet is wearing one.
If I had the money I’d know.how to
dress swell. Lots of women, no matter
what you put on them, never look dressed
up. No style or get-up to them at all.
Before I came to Chicago I lived in Ohio
where papa kept a store, and I always
had everything I wanted. But reverses
came and we girls—there’s three of us at
home and one married—had to get out In
the world and make a living. We've been
in Chicago four years, and I must say
we’ve got along splendid, coming her.* as
ive d:d entire strangers. I’ve had doz. n
of chances to marry, but I never saw
where I was going to better myself, so I’ve'
stayed single. I don't consider myself
on old maid, even if lam 27 past. Do you
think I look any older than that? Most
everybody takes me for about 22.
"A few days ago I met an rid chum who
was my roommate at boarding school. end

want to marry to listen to her s'ory. Why
that husband of hers don't give her enough
to eat. She has a sweet lit tie bay a year
and a half old, and, would you believe it,
that baby’s picture has never been taken?
Think of it! I'd rather remain an cld
maid ali my days, than to be married ;o
a man like that. I Just wouldn't live with
him. that's all.
“Do you know- a person gets dreadfully
tired and hungry going around taking the
census, but I must say I have made the
acquaintance of some very nice peo le
whom l would not have otherwise met.
In some parts of the city, especially away
out here near ihe cemetery, it is im; ossl
- to find a decent restaurant, but I've
been fortunate in being Invited to lunch
eon every day.”
"Can't I get you a cup of tea, now?"
said the lady of the lionise, who thought
her visitor was hinting at something , f
the kind.
"Now, I didn't mention that ns a hint,"
the census-taker replied, “but as you have
offered to get something for me I cun't
refuse your hospitality. Don’t make any
fuss—Just a cup of tea Is all.”
The Indy of the house excused herself
and w\ nt lo the kitchen She returned
In a few minutes with a tray, on which
was tie te>. same cak sand ad sh of

"Dear me,” exclaimed the census enu
merator, a; pcarlng surprised; “here you
have gone and fussed wh n I told you
not to do It. I'll put It right here In my
lap," taking the tray, under which she
arranged a napkin. "How- do vou like
your girl?" she usk and, confidentially.
"We've heen having such an awful time

ANOTHER HORRIBLE EXAMPLE.

From the New York Tribune.
The season of the year is at hand whirl
is supposed by outsiders to be marked In
the newspaper world by a peculiar feeble
ness Of intelligence and have received a
name In accordance with that supposition.
The fact is that material and not Intelli
gence is lacking. The subscribers ought
to be very thankful that papers are print
ed at all in hot weather, and that thej
get something for their money. Last year

cos ion h * s ot m r dtiy The Tr,bune had ch
caUon to hold up as an awfui example
' ■' n , of t lO3 i years, who had used tobac
d ® lcoholic liquors for eighty-five

at any moment, since few, indeed, are
I! their effects for so lon|
a tlm* But yesterday was the 108th birth
day of Bernard Morris, and his case it
much worse. One account of him which
was published yesterday says that he has
seen the nineteenth century through from
start to finish. Of course, that is a mis*
taKe. He wil have to live for nearly seven
mon<hs yet before he can make that
boast.
Hut the story is chiefly remarkable for
showing, at the very time that it seems
to commend and flatter him, how mis-
JPf 11 * his life bas been an<a how he haß
failed to take advantage of che many op
portunities whicTi so many years must
nave offered. For he has never used to
bacco or whisky, he owes nobody a cent,
he hasn’t An enemy and he has had three
wives. The question which will at once
present itself to anybody is, “What is the
use of such a life?” Muse not such a life
be the worse and the more unendurable
the longer it lasts?
It is bo be hoped that gome of these
statements are mistakes. For instance,
it is said that this man was born in Ire
land in 1702 and never used whisky. Then
what in the name of the Rebellion of
did he use? How little his fellow men
must have trusted him. since in his
whole 108 years he has not been able to
#?et Into debt! Of how little consequence
they must have thought him, since he
has not won a single enemy! How slow
he must have been, to have had anew
wife only once In thirty-six years! And
yet it appears that his sufferings are not
near their end, for he is still hale and
healthy. Men over a hundred years old,
It may be remarked, are. always hale and
healthy. Nobody ever heard of one who
was not. Extremely few people ever have
any sickness after they are a hundred
years old. And this man Is now fexactly
where he would be expected to be after
such a wasted life; he Is working In
Prospect Park, Brooklyn.
