Our amusement peop'e are enjoyed at the prospect of seeing that charming little acu««s who is credited by critics to be a leader of the American stage. Her acting is perfect, true to life, free and easy, appearing perfectly natural.

Loreiy Woman-Ber Rights and Wrongs. Gooo WOMAN, we know you have your wrongs, and we know you need your rights, and we intend that you iihail have them—your rights that is, ou shall have your rights if we have to give them toyou "ourself." Not only your rights, but your lefts. Take the whole pair there is nothing mean about us.

Seriously, we believe in your emancipation. We know yoti do more work for leas money than your brother can be hired to do. We know that you are underpaid, aa a rule, for most that yon do. We know how you have been elbowed and crowded out of the professional world so long as men could keep you out. We know that yonr rights have been disregarded alike by the hostility of your enemies and the careless though t~ lesstiess of your friends. We know how your courage, fidelity and ability have been underrated. And if we could we would overturn all this in a minute. Personally, we would like to

ut the in your hands this fall, as ao that your hands would honor it. But. with all this, we tear that man is not your worst enemy. Your most imperious and pitiless tyrant is woman. Now, don't flare up and interrupt before we are through. Nobody, we repeat, is so hard on you as women. No man with whom you deal is so pitiless as women. Your worst tyrants are those of your own sex.

Only a few days ago we heard Mrs. Livermore lecture on Superfluous Women." She told us all about the beautiful things she saw at the Centennial, all made by women. We enjoveo her lectnre, applauded and indorsed it, but we felt sad when she told about the beautiful things she saw at the Centennial that women made. Here, to our way of thinking is the most imperfect phase of woman1seducation. We don't know what she ean make, bat we do know what she can't make. She can't make her own clothes.

Now, how can women expect to go oat into the great world ana compete with her brother until she can make her own clothes as well as her brother makes his? Don't tell us you can, because we know better. You can't

See here. Three years ago-it may have been four, but it was certainly threte—we went into a merchant-tailor-ing Establishment In Burlington to order a suit of clothes. We selected the cloth, the cutter measured us, the proprietoi said,

44

We will send the suit to the

house when it is finished." That was aU. We never bothered about it, didn't go to see how the suit was ooming along, it came home, was put on, it fit. as a matter of course, just as we expected it would, and there was nothing lacking about it Since that time we have never troubled the cutter for a new measure. He does not want it When we want a new suit we merely select the cloth and go out, and in due time the suit follows us home. If we Area thousand miles from home we have just to write and the suit is made, sent by express and fits just as well as though we run in to fuss over it six times a minute.

Now, on the other hand, otff wife wants a dress. After two or three or half a dozen stores have been ransacked for the goods, the dressmaker is sought out The matter of measurement is tedious, and then the matter of fitting Is one of numerous at*l repeated trials. Finally the dress is finished and sent home. Then it is sent back to be taken in here and let out there, and at last after the customer has been fitted more times for that one dress than her husband has been measured in three or four Vears, the dr*?ss comes home for the last time, and is pronounced bv the wearer, her friends and the dressmaker as beautiful and a perfect fit, and it is tinished.

Beautiful it certainly is, far more beautiful than anything her husband ever wears. Colors and material, style, blending shades and contrasting bits of oolor, are all in the perfection of good taste. No man can improve uoon that. But it Isn't finished. When it is completed as far as the skill of the dressmaker can finish it and it is to be put on, it has to be pinned somewhere sometimes In two or three, often in half a dosen places. It always requires a

Leave out tbe pin and the dress all awry somewhere. On all this broad American continent there is not, one woman who can dress so as to make any kind of an appearance in good •ociety without pins.

SOMB time ago we took oooasfonto refer particularly in these columns to a note from a correspondent in reference to the probable footing of a well from a cesspool. We seized toe opportunity to explain fully, with a diagram illustrative thereof, the theory of the operation of well poisoning in this way. The subject is of sucn surpassing importance that we return to it to notice an instanoe strikingly corroborative of our remarks and caution then made, and which comes to us in the interesting report of the Rutger's Scientific School* which is, in fact, the New Jersey State Agricultural College. The subject is taken up in a paper on

44

The well waters of New

Brunswick," bv C. W. Cutler, a student of the chemical course. Incidentally it may be remarked here that one of the excellent methods of this excellent school, of which but little is heard, al* though much is done in it, is to exercise the students in original analytical investigations, which they are expected ta carry out without help from the professors, gradually passing from simple to elaborate subjects, it was in this way that this young student undertook to examine the wells of New Brunswick with some remarkable results.

Twenty-four

wells were examined.

Of these, eight only were good two were passable, but fourteen—or more than one-half—were bad to very bad. When well water is found to oontaln more than 40 grains per gallon of solid matter, it is to oe suspected. When the solid matter in solution largely surpasses this quantity, the pollution becomes dangerous. And here is a well in the oity of New Brunswick which oontaias 209 grains, or nearly half an ounoe of solid matter per gallon In solution, with a considerable proportion of albuminoid ammonia. Another of the oontaminated wells oontained fourtenths, or nearly half a pound of albuminoid ammonia in the million parts of water, although the solid matter was but 38 1-4 grains per gallon this case shows clearly the foul origin of the contamination. A well was examined into which the matter from a cesspool 60 feet distant, had percolated through a bed of sandstone. Another source of mischief was fonnd in the entrance of various kinds of vermin into the well, and thair death and decay in the water. Some old wells are spoken of in the report which had many inches of sediment at the bottom, chiefly consisting of the remains of toads, snakes and other vermin.

Here Is a monstrous evil existing under the shadow of many a fair homestead—a lurking danger, like the genius of evil, hovering in the dark over many a household, all unsuspecting of it. It is not only here and there it Is on every hand the farm, from its want of drainage, being in more danger than the oity house, and the better class of rural dwellings being worse placed than the farms, because of the modern improvements which gather the refuse of the household in a oonoentrated form undor nd, but out of sight, and of the increased wastes from a more household. It may be that we suffer from our excessive refinement in thus hiding away our filth that the only safe disposal of house wastes is in the shape of manure, and that to be safe the wastes of a house should be kept insight and used as are those of the stable—to fertilize the soil. If we could but come to that in any praoticable manner, we might add millions of dollars to our aggregate yearly income, and secure pure water, and with an undoubted freedom from much disease of mysterious (when unsuspected) origin.

FOR use in telegraphy, aluminum is found to possess double the conducting power of iron, and It can be made into extremely thin wires. The high price of the metal aod the difficulty of large production are, of pourse. great obstacles in lhs way. But, as appears from the technical journals, it can at least be produced in quantities sufficient to give an alloy with iron suitable for use as a telegraph wire, thinner and better conducting than the ordinary wire. The light weight of such wire gives it a special value for certain purposes. With regard to the production of aluminum in quantity sufficient for the purpose, it is thought that the tolerably abundant chrysolite found in Greenland-might furnish the raw material, and a reduction of it in smelting works by means of sillclous iron or zinc ore, would perhaps be practicable.
