THE HUSTLER OF ROME, THURSDAY SEPTEMBER, 13 1834 FOR WOMEN FOLKS LONDON SERVANT WAGES A British Housekeeper Here Airs Her Views. The item of wages opens up the whole question of servants and do mestic.,home ru'e. One need only re fer to the montnly reviews and msg azimsto see that here we have indeed a curonic subject ior discus sion Tiie professional philanthropist, th e enlightened and benevolent peeress, the lady journalist, even Sarah Jane her seif, all have a word to say. Our own experience lean give very shotly. There nus ben on the wlioie very little troudle, except with the cooks. Wages have run on an average as follows. N urso, £2O; cook £18; to £2O; bcuse parlor maid. £l6. When the life and income of a domestic servant is compared with that of many a girl in business or even with that of many working men, I am prepared to say that she is exceedingly well off, and if thrifty could very soon save £IOO. ■Servants are often very good to their relatives and friends, and can be taught to save money. But it is .idle to blink the fact that a great deal of their wages goes up on their backs in the shape of un suitable finery. Putting all this aside, what can you get for a wages budget of £54? Well, you can, with luck, get well served in every department, except the kitchen. “God sends the food, but the devil sends the cooks.” The difficulty is mainly this— the impossibility of getting a plain cook to cook plain things well ev ery day. She will boast of her pastry and “ongtray,” but if you ask her to cook a chop or fry a potatoe properly it is too often ut terly beyond her, and as a rule she is above being taught. The middle-class bread-winner can in London be certain at a hundred restaurant, or at his club, of getting a repast of three courses excellently cooked and presented to him at a moderate cost. The same certainty cannot be had at home. My own explana tion is a very simple one. The British plain cook does not consider, in the first place, that her employers are entitled to have food at all better prepared than she herself knows how to prepare it. This knocks on the head any idea of teaching her the art. She simply listens to her mistress with silent contempt and ignores her plain directions. Tnis is one phase of the cook difficulty. HINDOO CHILD MARRIES A Brahmen’s Daughter Marries .Early or Her Reputation Suffers The Brahmin has to get hie daughter married before she attaii s puberty. This custom has crept in to religion. The Hindoo religion strictly forbids single life for wo man or man ; especially must the woman be married. Hence there are no old maids in India. Sometimes one may meet an old •‘crankey’’bachelor, who remained unmarried because he was too poor to marry, or because his character was not good; but even these are seldom found except in flower cla sep. If a man is not married at the latest by bis ,tweney-fifth year his reputation suffers. It ip. a belief that those who have a son go to heaved, when t tLe sou, after the d-ath of his parents, performs the spiritual rites. However this may be whether they go to heaven or not this severe rule tends a strict cultivation of home life. Owing to this rule, if a Bramin’s daughter attains puberty before mar riage the father is disgraced; he loses his caste and no one wi'l marry the girl. Thus when a poor man Has more than one daughter it is a misfortune fur him. The Hindoo father himself has to fiud a suitable husband for his daughtai, so he goes to a gentle man who has a son. He first makes inquiries about the family, the property, the Dealt I , and education of the b<>y. Then be tisks I the father of the boy to marry bis sun to his daughter. The father of the boy asks for dowry and the amount of this is fixed according to the means of the man who asks for it and not of the man who gives it, that is to say, if the father of the bov is very rich he a-ke thousands of dollars. Hence the Hin doo father of a girl has to spend much for the marriage of his daugh ter ior he always wishes to see her married into a rich family. A HARD-HEADED MAN. He is not Cast Down by Being Re jected. Here is a little romance in lit erature. A gentleman, now a prom inent citizen of New York, years ago, when a struggling young man at college, fell in love with a pro fessor’s daughter. Both were juung she was beautiful • The professor was poor but wise. So he said to the youth at graduation : “Now, go out and do something. I don’t care what you do but do it. then we’ll see about the girl. If she really thinks she cMi’t get along without you she won't mind waiting a couple of years. If’she wont wait you won’t want her.’’ The young man filed the usual demurrer, but was overruled. Then he went forth. He had no idea what to do and sat down to think. Finally he started at something, and picked up $5 a week and S3O worth of self-respect while earning the $5. He tried something else, and failed; again and again, with the same result. The professor said he was a ro'ling scone, i'he girl said he was enterprising But the youth had his eye on that girl all the time. He tried newspaper literature. The professor said that settled it. So did the gnl. So it did. He worked his way into a syn dicate, bought shares in the paper married the girl, maxes several thousand a year and now hires the professor at $25 a week, Extract your own moral, Christain Science upto Date. “Yes,” said the first “scienced” woman, on the seashore piazza. “I felt that j.I must conquer boiled cabbage. I had always had a belief that it disagreed with me. So to day I just talked to it on my plate, told it spirit is all-powerful, and that it was nothing but ap pearance of green leaves. “Then J ate it without fear and it did not hurt me. ” “I conquer ed sweet potatoes in much the same way,” said her neighbor, “only I did not talk to them. I merely held them in the thought of utter nothingness, and ate them fearlessly.” “I wonder,” said the man who was smoking near, “if I can’t tackle watermelon on the same principle. I have always wanted to eat a whole one ever since I was knee high.” But only an utter nothingness of disapprov ing silence greeted him. A GRAaVI* offer! MME. A. RUPPERT’S rat£E face bleach MME. A.

BESANT’S PATHETIC STORY OF "PAUL THE WANDERER." The Quiet Iligulty of » Man Who Was I.tv ing For Posterity- A Pretty Little Skit Written In the English Novelist’. Inimi table Style. I knew him for several years before his death. When 1 first made his ac quaintance, he was already an old man. He was also, as was evident from the first, a very poor man. He went about shabbily dressed. He carried biscuits in his pocket to the reading room on which he lunched or took snacks at in tervals during the day. Perhaps he had dinner afterward, but I always suspect ed his dinner to be an uncertain and a movable feast. It was understood that he was something in the literary way. I got to know him by sitting next to him day after day. Wo exchanged the amenities of the reading room, apolo gized for crowding each other with books, abused the talkers, remarked on the impudence of those who go to the room in order to flirt and so forth. When I got to know him better, 1 made little discoveries about him, as, for instance, that he liked a glass of beer in the middle of the day and that he could not afford the twopence. I may say, not boastfully, that I was able to offer him this little luxury. We used to go out together for the purpose. He was good enough to take an interest in my work. He proved to have a consider able knowledge of books and gave me considerable help in this way. One Sunday I met him in the street. We stopped to speak. He lamented the closing of the museum on Sunday. For his own part, he said, he would have the reading room open every day in the week. Why close the avenues of knowl edge? Why damn the fountains and springs of wisdom? So we walked and talked. He was perfectly dignified in his manner, though his great coat was so thin and shabby that one might be ashamed to be seen with him. He stop ped presently at the door of a house in High street, Holborn. "I lodge here,” he said. "Will you come up stairs and see my hermitage?” I remember that he called it grandly his hermitage. He led the way; the stairs were dark and dirty; he took me to the fifth, or fifty-fifth, floor. He liv ed in the back attic. “This,” ho said, ‘‘is the cell of the recluse. I live here quite retired. There are other lodgers, 1 believe, but 1 do not know them. 1 live here with my library in simplicity. The air is whole some at this height. ” He threw open the window and sniff ed the fragrance of the neighboring chimneys. The room was clean; the furniture was scanty; there was no fire in the grate; on a shelf were about 25 books—his library. The man looked per fectly contented with his hermitage. There were no papers on the table, nothing to show that he was a writer. I do not know how he lived—certain ly he did no work at the museum—but he never borrowed. In one corner stood a wooden chest. He lifted the lid and nodded and laughed. “Aha!” he said, "now I am going to reveal a secret. You didn’t l?Fiow. no body at the museum knows, tho people in the house don’t know, that 1 am— what do you think?—a poet. It is 30 years since I paid for the pub i: ation of my collected poetical works. Yes, sir, and I am going not only to commu nicate this secret to your honor—in safe keeping—but to present you with a copy. There, my young friend!” He pro duced a thin volume. ‘‘l am Paul the Wanderer. ” In fact, the titlepage bore the legend, “Collected Poetical Work of Paul the Wanderer.” “Thirty years,” he repeated. “There were 500 copies. The press received 50, the public bought four; there remained 446. I have now given you one. There now remain 445. I have bequeathed these to the public libraries of the na tion. Sir, you are young. You will yourself perhaps publish your poems. Remember for your comfort that it takes 50 years, or two generations, for the noblest poets to take their proper place. Greatness—true, stable, solid greatness, not the empty applause given to an ephemeral favorite—re quires 50 years at least. Go, sir! Take the book I have given you, and in after years, when I am gone, tell the world that yon knew—Paul the Wanderer!” I wrung his hand in silence and left him. More than 50 years have passed since he published that work. No one has yet spoken to me of Paul the Wan derer. But I now understood his digni ty, his self respect and his content. He was anticipating and enjoying his fu ture fame. He was living for posterity. Present poverty and neglect were noth ing.—Walter Besant in London Queen. Another Mammoth Statue. The sculptor Nikolaus Geiger is put ting the last touches to his statue of Barbarossa, which is to symbolize the ancient kingdom in the Kyffhauser monument, to be unveiled in 1896. The Barbarossa appears at the end of a ves tibule in the style of an ancient castle, on the steps of the throne upon which he is sitting like the sleeping figures of the courtiers, with fabulous animals of the old mythic world. Barbarossa is rep resented at the moment of waking from his long sleep. In his right hand is his sword; his left hand strokes his long waving beard. Contrary to all other figures of the old hero, he is here repre sented as an actual emperor, with the features of a noble man. The whole monument, hewed from the rock, will be about 80 feet high. The figure of the seated monarch is about 30 feet high. —London Sun.
