j&^Thc field of the trained nurse is perhaps one of the least, if not the leant, I circumscribed of the many avocations open to women. The qualifications are, however, of a serious nature, so much I so that it takes to its ranks only the most intelligent, and even intelligence I must be supplemented by such grace of mind and spirit that the average woman
I 1—j |\/I is not only unfitted for the field, but JL JL jLJ_jlvi the field itself is of a critical disposition and regards the picking and choosing of its workers as it* own prerogative.
A talk with Annette Sumner Rose, I the editor of The Trained Nurse, has thrown a little light upon a subject which to the general public is a dark one—dark until experience perhaps throws a little light upon it and a rnin-
MRS. ANNETTE SUMN'KK ROSE.
istering angel in the guise of a trained nurse is called in to lend skilled aid at the bedside of some dear one whom we intrust to her hands. Mrs. Rose is one of Brooklyn's fairest ladies, and she presides with infinite grace over a beautiful home in St. John's place, on the confines of Prospect park. "I am glad to talk about, the trained nurse, for the work is my hobby," she said to me one pleasant morning lately. "As editor and proprietor of the magazine published in the interests of the trained nurse I feel that I am as much in the field as though I were indeed a hospital worker myself. How came I to be interested? I began my hospital work at a very early age. My grandmother, who was a prominent member of the Society of Friends of Philadelphia, devoted most of her time to caring for the eick, and she took me with her in her visiting rounds almost as soon as I oould walk. So I grew up familiarizing myself with the scenas that she loyeL "How does the public regard: the trained nurse?"
i-
"If by 'the public' you mean those in position to engage the services of. a trained nurse in the home, I may say that I am sometimes amazed at the ignorance of well to do women regardr ing the proper status of the trained nurse. Not long ago a nurse told me of being invited down to dinner at the same time the doctor was, when mv lady host seated the physician at the family table and relegated the nurse to the servants' quarters, introducing her *o the servants by her first name. The case she was called to attend was a very critical one, and the nurse was too absorbed to correct the mistake, but she did so later in the gentlest manner possible, and one that denoted her good sense, for really, you know, these women have practical things drilled into them, uid common sense of the commonest. kind lias to stand them in good stead scores of times. Their position is sit new as yet that their relation to the family is not defined as is the physician's, and every new case has to regulate itself for them. "The latest news in the nurses' workl is that- a convention of superintendents of hospital training schools was held List month in Boston. This is the second convolition ever held, and it is hoped that the organization will be productive of needed results to the profession, the principle one being the establishim
uniform course of training to be recognized in all hospitals and the proper protection of graduate nurses. "The best hospitals, for example, exact a three years' course of training, and there are some that give a diploma in two 3rears, and some only require one year to complete the course. There should be a standard course of study. New York Recorder.
New York Woman's Suffrage Association.
One of the busy and influential women of our community in Miss Isabel Howla-ul, secretary of the New York State Won tan's Suffrage association. This is ono of the strongest women's organizations in the Empire State. It lias county leagues in every county and political tonality clubs and political study clubs i.o every city and town. In New York, for example, there are, it is said, over 000 members of suffrage clubs enrolled, while across the river, in BroeJdyn, there are almost as many. In the en tiro state they have about 400,000, and the names of 5500,000 more who are in accord with them, but have not yet joined their official ranks. Miss Howland resides in Sherwood, N. Y., where she is a very popular society leader, lr.it passes much of her time in this city. In speaking of the progress of the state organization she said: "It is very plca-smit to be in my position jukI watch the growth of our ideas. When a man or woman onco becomes convinced of the justice of woman's enfranchisement, there Is practically no back sliding. On the other hand, every now iuid then some strong adversary becomes converted and comes over to our side with a rush,

her own along too. Many of our most active and enthusiastic advocates were formerly equally enthusiastic against its. "The tendency at present is to spread the doctrine among the industrial classes. Heretofore the question has been treated as one of pure ethics, and in that way has been classed by the public along with oilier abstract theories and questions a'.i I has failed to get beyond a certain circle of thinking people. It is not and never was an abstract question, but was and is purely practical. "Woman's suffrage means greater purity and morality in politics, the selection of better men for candidates and the rejection of bad men, no matter of what party. It means better wages for women, better treatment by employers, better government and smaller taxes. It means, in other words, the greater welfare of the community, and particularly of the women belonging to it. The moment this principle is brought home to their notice they will join the suffrage organization to a woman. "—New York Mail and Express,
Women Bicyclers Neatly Gowned. -M
The irresistible bicycle craze fastens on one well known woman after another and is as little to be evaded as the erst all powerful grip. The latest person to succumb is Miss Hope Temple, the well known song writer. She says: "I have seen a good many lady riders of the two wheeled machines in London, but there arc twice as many in Paris. I have ridden only throe times, but I am already in love with my machine. The second time I came to grief in riding down hill. I got between two vehicles, but managed to escape with a few bruises."
r*
"Was the accident due to the obtrusive skirt?" asked the interviewer. "Oh, no. To ride a bicycle in petticoats is madness. But, on the other hand, it is quite unnecessary to wear knickerbockers. I ride in a short skirt, just short enough to avoid the pedals and gaiters, with a tennis skirt, and a sailor hat—just the same costume that one has f*»- glacier climbing. The costume is not unbecoming, I can assure you. It is universal in Paris, and if English women would wear it I am sure bicycling would soon become much more popular among them. It is such an exhilarating exercise. I am fond of pretty well all sports—riding, rowing, shooting, mountaineering. And for my own part I don't see why women should be debarred from any of these things if they feel themselves physioally fitted for them.''
Co-operative FIonn«kei'plng,
A party of six women dwell in cooperative domestic, harmony in East Seventeenth street. There are three musicians—viz, a pianist, a violinist and a singer then there Jire a stenographer, a journalist uid a house decorator. They live handsomely in an apartment that rents for $(o per montlL With all living expenses included in the sum total, including gas, fuel and servant's hire, the hist costing £i!0 per month, it costs each woman exactly per week. The same comfort and general accommodation could not be secured in a boarding house for less than §20 a week for each one. A musician is not considered a desirable boarder, moreover, at any price.
Eight dollars a week in this case pays for the best food the market allows in its season. It substitutes fruit for meat at breakfast, and supplies cream for cofI fee and oatmeal and hot rolls from the
baker. Noon luncheon consists of scrambled eggs, tea, sauce, cold meat- or salad for variation. Six o'clock dinner consists of soup, a roast, a vegetable, in addition to potatoes, a salad and coffee, cheese and crackers. When salad is not in the menu, dessert is supplied,
Meals are always delicately and daintily served, a feature which is not observed sufficiently in the boarding house to suit the artistic feminine epicure.— New York Advertiser.
Miss Gates on Suffrage.
•-f-w-A Miss Gates has been talking to the people of New Orleans on the suffrage question. She said some bright things, as, for example: "In Wyoming women have had the ballot years. How do thev manage about the baby? Why, the father and mother wheel his liltl-.- carriage to the polls, and the baby crows while they vote for his best interests. And, I tell you, the nearer the baby is to the ballot ofii box the better for the baby.
"In our age the man and his wife were one, and he was the one. A penniless man married a, woman having 100,000, and at his death she was fortunate enough to have §2 ").000 willed her, ou condition that she did not marry again.
Ciuiyle, the old bear, used to speak of woman suffrage as "the chirps of the cricket an:nl the crack of doom," but then the Kicotchntaii had a chronic dispepsia.

Her Kvouoinical Trip.
Cheap trips to Europe are the delight of the independent girl. A Chicago girl who goes across (he wafer every summer keeps her entire expenses under Jj^'OO, and this pays lor the voyage ami a month in London. In the iirst phice sin goes over on a cattle ship, which sounds unpleasant, but is really more agreeable, oft-times, than the usual ocean liner. The round trip is $70, and for this the girl gets a large stateroom, with spacious Rwingmg berth, sofa, washstand, carpet, curtains, and, in fact, all the belongings of a comfortable chamber. The dining rooms on these vessels are prettily furnished and daintily kept, and the food is excellent, The passage fare of $35 carries her straight to London. In the city a little financial prudence gives her a
good boarding place, and enables her to see everything within reason withouexeeeding her allowance. Having dono this once or twice, the Chicago girl Inn demonstrated to her other girl friend that it is wholly practicable, and qui to a party is going over this summer.— Woman's Journal.

This should be fastened by a small brass rod, and so easil" adjusted that it can be swept aside at will. Over it place some good fretwork, painted black, which should fit exactly the upper frame. If in this window there is a broad sill, a box of vines an olossonis will add a picturesque tone]!

Women RS Readers.
The new woman reads a different el as of books from her predecessor, thoughtful librarians tell us. Librarians ana their assistants were at first amused when asked by a tiny blond with bn sleeves for a book upon some weightv subject and winked at each other whil•• they dusted off the book. But after two or three years passed, and the demand remained, they ceased to wink at "the fad,'' and the books on sociology aim political science were moved from the top shelves of the "men's side" down to the low shelves of the "woman's The American woman, by her readme, is developing marvelousiy in a- politica' way and attaining such knowledge a. will make her power in influencing the home circle even if it has no effect in helping her to obtain suffrage
Her Dress Was Conspicuous.
You would not suppose that a costume entirely of black relieved by a few violets would be conspicuous, yet it attracted more attention than any other toilet seen in the course of a long morning's outing for this season. The young woman who wore it was dressed in widow's weeds, heavily draped in crape from head to foot. Her bonnet, from which depended a long crape veil, was adorned with two bonnets of bright purple violets, one over each temple, and her neck was encircled by one of the deep b:uids known as flower collars, of the same blossoms. The effect was fairly garish, and every woman in the car and most of the men looked at her with "wonder and amaze," which, it ie to be feared, she mistook for admiration.—Philadelphia Press. 1
Miss Kllcn Colliiifi.
Miss Ellen Collins, who is the first woman to take the place of school inspector in New York city, has been actively interested in the cause of education and litis also been a worker in the cause of tenement house reform. She was prominent in the New York branch of the sanitary commission and was highly commended for her wise and economical administration of its affairs. She is a member of the Harvard annex committee and is for years been a visitor to the institutions on the islands. Miss Collins' term will expire .lan. 1, 181)0. There is no salary attached to the office, but. actual expenses are allowed.
