The Huron Expositor, 1887-01-28, Page 6- 6 Beautiful Handiwork of' Irish Women. Everybody seems to take advantage of the demand for Christmas presents and New Year's gift, to push the sale of their wares, whatever they may be, and the shows of various kinds are realy worth visiting. The very beautiful and varied display which was made of the work of Irish cottagers and distressed Irish ladies, by Mrs. Ernest Hart, in her Donegal Industrial Fund Room in Wigmore -street, London, was most interesting, and I saw large pack- ages of artistic work and home- spun stuffs conveyed by powder- ed flunkies to many of the ele- gant and coronetted carriages which conveyed aristocratic purchases thither. Thi a show will be open for the next few weeks, and wonderfully exemplifies the deftness of hand and artistic ability of Irish women. The oundress and man- ager of the enterprise is deeply interest- ed in it, and gives her time, which in woxnen of her social position is usually devoted to more frivolous amusement, almost entirely to tire development of her pet scheme for the help of Irish workers, and the resuscitation of practi- cally extinct industries amongst a most interesting people. She began with training a few women only to help themselves, but now upwards of 800 cot- ta.g-ers are employed in spinning, weav- ing, and dyeing, and upwards of 100 dis- tressed Irish ladies in artistic embroid- ery. An American lady of the name of Wheeler, who is backed by wealthy capitalists, was so much struck on the occasion of a recent visit to London with the beauty of woolen and linen fabrics —exhibited at the depot of Donegal Industrial Fund, that she gave large orders and is now holding an exhibition of them in New York. The Queen has ordered -some beautiful hangings of red hand -spun and woven woolen fabrics, embroidered with drag- on the old Celtic designs in a pat- ter known ar,s "Lindin faam," and she has also purchased some very artistic bed covers of the patterns called " Iyr- cormel" and "O'Neill." For her grand- children, the Queen bought some very fascinating little popular dresses, em- broidered with castle patterns. Mrs. Hart showed me some most soft and delicious woolen fabrics made entirely by hand, carrying out most thoroughly the doctrines of Ruskin, Wm. Morris, and others, who believe in sound ma- terial, original and special designs, and a steady effort to raise the moral as well as the physical condition of the work - ere, • It is pleasant to see what can be ef- fected in a portion at least of a sister country by the indefatigable energy of one English lady, who has thus been able to brighten and ittprove many an Irish cottage home hitherto the seat of • idleness and despair, and to putijoy into the heart of many an Irish gentlewoman' reduced to abject poverty owing to he - critical condition of affairs in thbir un- happy country. Lady Aberdeen, as the wife of the Lord Lieutenant, took active • interest in the Irish stall at the Edin- burgh Exhibition, which through some mismanagement was not a success. However, the work begun there is to be carried on by a special committee on which I 'am sorry not to see the names of any ladies, for a large amount of the industrial work of Ireland is notably done by women, such as most delicate needle- work, lace making, knitting, and the Eke, not alone in their own cottage homes but in the great factories of the country. The fine embroidered hand- kerchiefs we all kuow so well here are turned out of One mill only at the rate of a million and a half dozens every year. I am sorry to say that most of these are sold to English women as French pro- ductions, who prize them accordingly, whereas in Paris and Berlin Irish lace and embroidery have quite a special reputation of their own.—Mrs. Penny. • The Houseless Poor of London. The Daily News has published sev- eral letters dealing With the sufferings of the houseless wanderers of London, and exposing the inconsiderate arrangements of the Poor Law authorities. The letters (iays the Daily News) describes mid- night walks through London, one from east to west, the other from west to east, in search of those who were passing the night in the streets. There is no lack of such waifs and strays. Not only the streets in Trafalgar square and on the Embankment, but many a doorstep in the richer parts of London forms the resting -place of wretched men, women, and even children. There is reason to believe that the Police treat those house - less; wanderers with kindness and con- sideration; but it has often been asked -whYthey are there. People have gen- erally believed that the Shelter of the casual ward is provided for those who have no other means of getting under a roof at night, But the casual wards are shut early in the night, and are by no means for belated wanderers. It is ear y to bed in the parochial refuges, and, late corners knock in vain at the re- morseless doors. Even this strange .ax- rangement would work less harshly if ear y to bed meant early to rise. But the healthy, wealthy: and wise" hal its of the proverb are not for the casual poor. They must go in early and turn out late. They cannot leave till nine o'clock, and by that time it is too late to set out to look for work. A more improvident and ridiculous ar- rangement is is impossible to conceive. The correspondents suggest that the casual wards should always be open to receive the night wanderer; and that 'nen should be allowed to depart in quest of work at five in the morning. As things stand the regular tramp who does not want work is favered, whilst the honest working man who has been about late at night in search of employment, and wishes to start again early in the morning is often compelled to pass the at hole night in the streets. Useful Training.. Thewisdom of the old world decided long ago that every boy and girl should have a trade. It has long been the custom for the princeof Germany to learn, trades. 8orne of them were 1,i-iiter:se book binders, shipwrights, house cal -palters, joiners and painters : they did not follow these vocations, but they understood them. Royal and princely ladies in Germany and France under- stand every function of housekeeping and know how to perform it. They can go to the dairy, and the stable and handle milk or a cow and a horse with dexterity and satisfaction. The Prince of Wales is a bookbinder, each of his brothers has a trade, and his sons are now learning trades according to their testes. All the ladies of the English royal household are accomplished in practiced things, they know 'how to do useful things even if1 they are never called upon to perform them. The mawkishness or sentimentality Which encourages girls not to learn to do use- ful, practical and strengthenin labor is a debasement of the noblest; im ulses of nature. When such an incul ation is encouraged it tends to deprive girls especially from developing thei mental_ [ and physical forces, to enervate them and, improve functions which, if prop- erly trained, might develop the good: and the, grand in their 3haractei. Work properly performed is a recuper, tor, not, an exhauster, • of mental and I physical ferces. Knowledge is poweij, is an axiom as old as -truth; to knowl how to do the useful is an accomplishment of which any -girl may be proud, and espec- ially an American girl. • H. Yankee Trade. "I calculate I couldn't drive with you to -day ?" saida true. of a Yankee pedlar, at the do merchant in St. Louis. "I you calculate about right, for not," was the sneering reply. I guess you needn't get huffy a trade pecimen r of a alculete ou can- '' Wall, bout it. Now, here's a dozen real genui e razor strops, worth two dollars and a half ; you may have ?ene at two dollars." "I tell you I don't want any of your trash, so you had better be going." "Well, now, declare 'bet you five dollars if you make me an offer for them ere strops we'll have a trade yet." Done !" re- plied the merchant, placing the money in the hands of a bystander. The Yan- kee deposited the like sum, when the merchant offered1 him a couple of cents for his strops. "They're yourn," said the Yankee; as le pocketed the stakes. But; he added, with apparent honesty, 'I calculate a joke's a joke; and if you don't want the streps, I'll trade back." The mercha.nt'soonntenance brightened as he replied, "You're not so bed a chap after all. Here are the'strops—give me the money." "There it is," said the Yankee, a he received the strops, and passed over the :couple of cents. "A trade's a trade, and now you're wide- -awake in earnest. I guess the next time -you trade you'll do a little better than to'buyrazeastrops." And away he went with his strops and his Wager, amid the shouts of the laughing creed. , The Portuguese 'Donkey. No long ago, during the Yearly cruise of the training ships on which young ;boys serve their appeenticeship as sailors in the navy, great numbers of pets were picked up by them in the tropics and the different islands and countries at which they touched. They had a hun- dred and ten eanaries, twenty parrots, nine dogs, four cats, four monkeys, and last, but most enjoyable of all, a Lis- bon donkey, very small and well propor- tioned. . No better proof of a kind Captain was needed than this love fo.c boys and ani- mals shown in hiasvillingness to, allow, the apprentices -ad bring their number- less pets on board.' While the smaller pets werethe property of individuals, the donkey seemed to belong to all. He was scarcely larger than a Danish hound, and chased the boYs when on deck, car- ried them on his back, ran -paces with them, stood on his hind -feet and put his forefeet on their shoulders, ate from their hand, and was full` of delight when -recreation hour came tied his fun began. The donkey was kept in a little shel- ter on the gun -deck, near the captain's cabin. It was the custom every even- ing just after sundown for the captain to assemble the -boys on the gun -deck, and the hundred and fifty. or more stood in line and said the Lord's Prayer in unison. One day, after the arrival of the donkey on board, the order for silence on the ship; was -as usual given about sunset, when the boys assembled, and the chaplain began the evening prayer. The donkey spying them from his little house, thought that the play- time had arrived a:nd tried to 'break his bonds and get to them. When he found he could not he began a series of bray- ing that rang throygh the ship like the yells of besieged! buccaneers. Not a sound of the chaplain's- .iivords or the united voices of the apprentices could be heard. The boys tried to keep grave ,but it was impoesible, and the donkey had to be rembred per -force, all the while protesting ea a succession of un- canny sounds, which, to the grief of the generations of man be it Said, have never yet been reduced' to a chrematie scale. When the chaplain had given time for the apprentices to recover their gravity the duty was proceeded with, and a ehort time after the fun forward began.— Harper's Young People. A Toronto Forker Falls Heir to $35,000- While Awaiting Ii Trial. . ' At the Criminal Assizes, in Toronto two weeks ago an interesting case came up before Chief Justice carneron. It was that ot a young man named Wm.C. Dal- ziel,a resident of Toronto who was called to answer three separate -indictments of forging and uttering the name of J. G. Owen of,Streetsville.' • The first forrgery was a check of $80, made on the 22nd of De- cember last, and drawn on the .-a -•y 1 y of the Central Bank at Brampton. The second and third were for $100 and $120 respectively, made On the 129th of No- vember and, drawn on the ,same bank. In the first case he forged the name of his grandfather, Walter Dalziel, on the back of the check for $80, sent the latter by Owen las the la. t instalme t (.1) of a payment .op the ol man's farrr William got th 4 check fr m the .pos office, forged his' grandfather's name as an indorsation, and went on a holidaah This case went ti the Jury, who, aft4r ten minutes deliberation, returned a verdict of guilty. On the advice of h s counsel, N. C-. Bieelosta the prisoner then -withdrew his former plea of not guilty and pleaded guilty to the t'ik 0 ocher indictments. ,, 1 Dalziel is a young man of about 2 years of age, medium height, intelligen i and fairly good-looking. He is win . might be termed 'an unfortunate luck : individual, ad one who will now haak , Plenty of time t� reflect on the truth Of • the Biblicalepotationithat "the way f r the transgressor ie hard.", While in j il ' awaiting his triallinformatiOn was CO 1- ; 'eyed to him thatlhe had fallen heir o : the tidy. sum of $35,000.. There is a • tinge of ronianee about the affair a d ' the manner in which he fell into this i , enviable streak of luck. A few yea -s ago while wishing in Buffalo, he one - night came across an old' man, who had 1 4 Lt -eon' been seized with an epileptic fit, lyin on the sidewalk. Young Dalziel too compassion upon the unfortunate ol gentleman called a cab and drove hi to his hotel. Here he stayed with hi for about two weeks, and nursed hin through his weakness and until he re covered from the injuries inflicted b his fall upon the pavement. Whe Dalziel was obliged to leave, the old ma assured him that he would remembe him for his kindness and attention som day. The years rolled around, and Dalzie heard no -thing o his Buffalo patient un til the other da , when he was told tha he was now th heir to any amount o the lucre he so uch coveted, and wa willing to corn it a crime to obtain The old man k pt his promise, and dis played his grati ude in the most substan tial manner.

The poor grief-stricken oh grandfather, w o must be close on hi eightieth year, as completely overeom at the sight o the boy being led on with the brand if a criminal upon him and even the h rd -hearted legal lightl round the table, who are accustomed td, such scenes, w iispered their sympathY for the old man in his sorrow.

One of the fist requisites of a weld ordered home i punctuality. If ther is no regard to Vme, a "happy-go-luckyt administration, there is always more o less friction. Tiains run on time,schools] begin on time, well -regulated offices open and close in time, and Americans have the repu ation of trying to get ahead of time. So, necessarily, the house that doe not fall into line and run its affairs- in time is forcing its in- mates to lose w at it never can catch, and yet never seases trying to catch— lost minutes. If there is no a breakfast hour, and the rule enforce that all the -wed mem- bers of the fam ly make their appear- ance at the ta. le on time and in good order, there wi I be a prolonged meal that will keep other necessary work back; there wil be hurried and taste- less breakfasts aten, and discomfort and annoyances begin the day. If the dinner is not re dy on time, and all re- quired to be on time at the table, an- other tasteless i nsatisfactory meal will he eaten, and ore discomfort and an- noyance to all oncerned. Now, this matter of puncti ality, while largely in the hands of the mistress, depends, in al measure, on ever a member of the family. There eau be ni restfulness, no order, no continued pace, in a home where this corner -stone of all is absent. A con- temporary says: "A lady of e perienee observes that a good way to p ek out a husband is to: see how patien ly he waits for dinnerl when it is :behi d time.
