Eat he ttaoks God that this portion of Eng land's rratchless domestic system has not been transferred to the dreadful America, which we judge from the tenor of nis remarksneeds lecturing because of the freedom allowed its wives. Somehow his laudation of English wives fails to rxove us to the Inspiration ot emalat'on when he proceeds to assert that most EcgiiffDmen lave and maintain two families cf children : those born in and those born cut olwediork. Upon learning this we fail to steii) sou of English wives have special reetor a Mr. Collier declares they dj. to rite cp atd call their mothers blessed. Why should a icn reverence a mother whom he knows entered matrimony consenting to igLore the fact that her bu&band had and would continue to have relations wit oatcast zerren?

The American wife who would tamely submit to any such arrangement would Inspire in American men only ftdiogs of disgust, irreverence and disrer.ct. it is evident that England's beautiful rystim of family life is not only defective, but most pernicious in its effects. As a legitimate result of ecch subjection of women England has what? A nation of woman who teach nn chastity to their sens sni husbands. Who teach their sons to be "despoilers of female virtue." Who teach irreverence and dhrespect for women. Who teach their sons to look upon women not as human beings but as creatures existing to minister to all that is lowest and least admirable in man. Who teach their sons to give free rein to their grosser, baser eelves. Who do not teach men to strive for that selfcoctrcl the power to gain which is the noblest attribute of man andchieäy distin

But let us. in free America, slog peans to a nniverial law hieb recognizes no ifx and no subordination save that implied in the words: Dj unto others as ye would that tte should do to you. This is a law before wlvcli woman can stand upright as b comes God's free creatures. We would advise Mr. Collier to tarn h is attention to some wcrlby t base if aught there is cf English lifa. He and his Eng lishmen would bs wise to cea?e making fools ot themselves by r battering abjut the subjection of women Men must learn to rule themselves before they are ht to rule women. Mary Dtrham.

A cordial invitation was extended tc the committee to hold the next congress at Syracuse, but it was Uiged that the needs of ths West are greater, and DesMcines. lows, was selected, where the meeting will be heil early in October. A programme has been partially arranged, and the following papers will be read: ''Justice and Not Character the Need of To-day," by Mrs. J. L.

An interesting interchange of views was teld upon "Different Ideals of Success," In ths evening the visiting ladies met the Leunre Hour Club and friends at Keble Schcol. Dr. W. P. Cjddington made an ad dress cf welcome, and then introduced Mrs. H. L. T. Walcott, of Massachusetts, who sreke on "Woman a work." She described the Woman's Department at the New Orleans hxpotit'.on as typical cf the work of women in the industries, in art, science, literature and invention. "Breadwinners" was the subject of an ad dress by Fiances Fisher, lady pnncipil of the Cleveland, Ohio, public schools.

"In the administration of a State, neither a weman as a woman, nor a man as a man has any special function, but the gifts are rquslly different in both sexes," Plato. Rep ulic, Book V. Woman's enfranchisement will render the entire government a home; will gather un der one bread shelter all her own outcast children, and the outcasts of other nations. Woman, is the home maker: home is the evolvement of all there is in woman. She will carry home with her wherever she has the liberty to go. With widened privileges she will give the world widened homes un til at last she will build the world into one great home, and all the race inta brothers and sisters. Helen nmans. Mrs. C. K. Jenner, of Washington Territory, President of the W. C. T. U. there, in a private letter in answer to a question, says: "I sat for two weeks aa a member of the laU grand jury. I can not point to one objec tion coacernicg gentlemen and ladies serv ing together in the capacity of grand jurors. It was certainly harmonious.

We isay well trant that marriase must hold a more controlling share in a woman's lifs than in a man's because she is anchored by her children is a man is not Yet when we lock around us acd see the enormous number of cases where a woman either is never married, or is childless, or is left widowed, it is quite evident that there are for her in life other opportunities and duties, and therefore "chances," beside tto'e determined by marriage alone. And as to the ctarce involved in marriege. the more we reduce it to a minimum by care and judgment and good seise, the better. There is rn sun r preparation for misery, one would 'hink, than to accustom ay oung girl to'think of every offer of marriage as a "c'jaics." to be e-pcerly seized as a fish i swallows the bilL itbont knowing who or what is at the end of the fishing line.

Society and Beforme I Lilian Whiting In Inter-Oceaa.l The truth is indeed, that the purely fashionable circles of society are becoming so intelligent, and the intelligent circles are becoming so fashionable, that it is no longer possible to dia x n exact line bstweenthem, cr to feel thattnere is any impossible golf fixed tetween fashion and reform. Reforms
their selves are becoming fashionable, and society re enforces itself from the people who have ideas, it is they who contribute value. vitality, and who eDrich life with new thought and nobler ideas. It is the s:gn of a benighted and igcorant, rather than an advanced and intelligent social state, t3 consider fashion and reform as antagonistic terms, or to believe that the woman who champions a cause or a principle is lees womanly than she who limits her horizon to ter personal detsires. II society does not welcome those who bring to it nobler views and universal thought, so much the wone for society. The reforn cr, in the true significance of the term, is the pctt and the prophet of humanity. He is the diviner of possibilities, the seer ot liner social states. That every genuine reform attracts ita cheap following is true; but eyery real coin has it3 counterfeit. Law has its charlatans and medicine its quacks, but net the le a becaar-e of this is medicine for the hfa'irg cf the rations, and law "hatb her teat in the besom of Got. The attidude of tte social world toward the leaders of thought and the diviners of truth reveals Its own quality; whether it be that which ein appreciate all noblenc39, or whether it is Ilmüei to material thiogs and incapable ot apprehending the spiritual side of life, the atmcsphere in which they, oar poets and our prophets, dwell, "who give us nob.er loves andncbler cares." Kot Permitted to Practice Law. IKew Nortawett. J The Supreme Court of Oregon has brought discredit upon itself by construing oar laws as to disbar women from practicing the legal profession in this btate. The decs:on was rendered last week on the application of Mrs. Mary A. Leonard, of Seattle, who presented a certificate of admission to the bar of Washington Territory and asked a like recognition here. The refusal of the Judges is baud on the fact that in the statutes which permit "persons" to prctice law the picnouns "he" and "him" are med. In other words, women are not "persons." The statutes in reference to varioas other matters also con tain the masculine pronouns; yet the Supreme Court does not hold that women are exempt from laws to impose taxes, to punish crime, and so forth. In the construction of statutes there is a mighty difference as far as women are concerned whether burdens are to be imposed or rights protected. The illiberal decision Is not only personally darna?ir g to the applicant, but it is a blow at every woman's r ght to earn her livin? in a way that she elects. Mrs. Leonard has male en application to pract'oa in the United States Courts, and we believe Judgs Deady will grant her petition. Sbe will also en deavor to have a rehearing before the State Supreme Court, when we hops the Juftss will look into the justice of the casa and allow women a chance to demonstrate their capacity to "master the law." Some will succeed, some will fail; all they ask is a fair held and no favor. FASHION AS IT FLICS. Sprint Silks New Items of Dressmaking-. Short Mantles. The changeable surahs combined with ve' re t figured surah are the fashionable silks for spring and summer. The basque and lower skirt are figured, t n 1 the draperies are of the changeable surah without figures. There are alio many of the taffeta silks that are changeable, and icstead of velvet figures tbess have Hay specks or larger dots bro caded all over them. A 31?, there are narrow stripes or bars 0! velvet in Romon colors on gros grains of light quality that are to bs nsed as lower skirts made quite plain withcut pleats. 3CEW ITEMS OF PRESSMAKIS'5. Pointed waists both in front and back rival regular basques on imported dresses, es pecially thore of silk, läse or Sicillenne. The pcint of the back is sharper than that in front, but not so long, and sometimes the short sides and back arc Cniihed by a knifepleated frill of silk which is about four inches deep in the middle of the bick. but slopes away to only half aa inch under the arms. Sometimes this frill 19 caught up in a shell-like jabot in the middle ot the back to give it a more tonffsnt effect. The folded surplice waitts are also seen on lace, surah, aad wool dreises alike. The e usually have three or four pleats in the shoulder seams, and cross in various ways in front, sometimes extend ing to a point at the waist line, in others be low this, and still others reach only to the chest; a plastron of plain velvet or of lace fills in the pointed space below the throat The stiff high military collar is of almost all the dreses, and is usually of velvet, no matter whether the dreea itself be os cotton.silk, or wool. This collar is stiffly lined with buckram, has Equare or sloped corners instead of cnrres.and may be edged witk braid set in aa piping, or it may be covered entirely wit braid In rows or with lace. Tae The double-breasted fronts and 'various kinds of vests have been described in former papers; to these may be added the gennine Breton vest with clusters of buttons aet in groups of five or six each side of the top and bottom of the vest. coat sixzxz, Ccat sleeves still prevail, and are cut to conform more clcsely to the arm at the top than they were last isason; indeed, there is i carcely any fullness where they are sewed in the armhole. If the high effect Is desired, instead of giving it by Inside padding, it is hot? xnfide bj a cap outside ths sleeve consisting of three or four bias folds ot the ma tcrlal purred under ths arm and lapping in a curve ca top. Ths cuffs tn exceedingly
simple, and nethrg detracts more frnm style than a bunchy trimming about the wrJetr. Some of tte pret: est cuff are made by cutting the aieere an icch and a halt too lorg, then lipping ihe icside seam, turning' tte extra length backward, acd facing it with velvet; this gives a pretty revers, which can be made very dressy by gathering lace Icside. The new way ot putting lace in sleeves is to have two frills, each containing seven eighths of a yard of lace not quite three inches deep; theie are gathered to lap, the upper frill nearly covering the lower, and most of the fullness being mused at the outside seam of the sleeve, A small tightly strapped bow of ribbon is set on the inside seam at tte wrist of some sleeves: turned-back cuffs are preferred, but there are also simple bands of bias velvet three inches wide set inside the sleeves at the wrist, and coming out like .. under-sleevei; these are to match military collars. When lace frills are not med, folds of silk muslin in three layers, cr of canvss in one or two layers, quite plain or wrought with gilt, are put in the sleeves and the colitis of dresses. BOCXD SKir.TS. There Is a decided tendency toward plain, round skirts, seen in all costumes from Paris, Lcndon, Berlin, cr from our own leaairg houses. The only foot trimming allowed is a tiny edge of fine pleating seen occasionally. Skirts are drawn imoothly but not tightly arcuud the figure to the back breadths, which are very full. The back of the 6kirt Is more bouffant ttan ever. Kilt-plaited or boxplaited skirts are often seen, especially in wco'en fabrics. Skirt draperies do not generally extend below the knee when arranged en tablier. Full hip draperies, paniers, and very töngand full back draperies are arrarged in any style suited to individual taste. Occasionally the front breadth or panels at the side are arranged differently frcm the styles mentioned. Waists are long and may be either pointed or round. When a plain and figured material are us?d together the front breadths cf the skirt and barque are of the figured goods, while the plain is need for skirt draperiea and ves which Is seen on the majority of the waists. Sleeves still fit the arms "scnglr, aad shoulder teams are short, the top of the sleeve being fitted over the shoulder and sewed in with a alight fullners at the top. The throat is fitted with a band as wide as can comforts-
Diy ce worn. "PBMr-SAION" MANTLE. .1 - - - , n A "dem'-safson ' mantle of some sort i always needful, for though it is unwise to don them too early in the see son, there are often occasional days of bright sunshine and' soft air hovering which recder the beavy winter e'eak greatly oppressive. Most of the dressy spring wraps are made quite ehort at the back, fitting the form snugly The sleeves, to called, in a piece with the garment thcee rervirg to protect the forearm without altogether taking the place proper. The fronts to many of these mantles are loese end limp like those of the old-fashioned pelerine. Many ladiea who have a hearty dislike to any thing tuggettive of the name or shape cf "dolman"' are pleased to find amcrg the season's models a design in regular roat shape, with close fitting sleeve and Fretch tack ecdicg in two fall box-pleats below lhe belt line. Tte front is cut with two daits. and is jost easy-lilting, neither locse cor tight The richest of these are made of beavy corded silk or rad.imir, and tbe entire front and sidss cf tb.9 confection are literally covered with lace, mingled with tet pendents, embroidery in silk and chenille, or a dense network cf dowers and leaves in jet, and aplique. Beaded brandebemgs to rxa'ch are placed down the trontacd special desigts in jet, adorn the deep turnback cuff?, acd also the upper fold of the box p'eatiegs In tha back. Still more expeusive wraps, direct from Taris. ard m&de cf supurb India f ibric3, broches heiv ily woven with threads of real gold, and satin grounds with colored flowers In raised velvet. A heavy frlr ge of knotted chenille miDg'ed with gold dro8 adorns the ontlines of each wrap. THE lIOtSK FAMII0K ABLE, IN'. Y. Mall.l No house is now complete without a Louis Seize room. Kareiy It is a bedroom or boa doir; most frequently it is the drawingroom, lhe customary receipt lor a Louis Se?ze room is an inlaid floor of light wood. The woodwork is painted a warm ivory or cream tint and the detail picked oat in gold. The walls are appropriately hung with pale blue satin or Watteau des:gns in pale gray brocatelle. Tte frieze has light garlands in relief and small medallions "or ribbons in gold on ivory ground. This, in the days of pspler mache acd other compositions, is easily enecteu. Add a few spiudle-legzed pieces of f nrniture in gold covered with paletinted satins or light garlanded stuffs, and Eorr.e Dresden china brie a brae. High ceilings are not desirable. A lower effect to a room is given by throwing the windows into the frieze. This is done by putting a icreen cf stained glass, line spin dles or perforated wood across, making a ccntinncus line with the top ot ths door frames end placing the curtain pole beneath. This gives the senee of an unbroken frieze, which is much more desirable. Another de fect in the ordinary city house is the length of the drawing-room and its packing-box shape, which defies all attempts at elegance. This is obviated by cutting oS thesuperlluity with screens of perforated wood carving. This by day receives light and displays its intricate ornament through the rear win dows, liy night the gas rets Dehind are lighted, 8cd, by fcrtied teats and cushions, this makes a delightful nook for quiet reading or thcee other delightful pastimes in which ycurger people are wont to indulge. The hall is often equally badly proportioned and rendered more ugly by the iong.unbroken tlight of steps. A good plan is to eat off the three lower stets and rraie a small landirrg bonnded by a ra;L Add the steps on the other side. E ren if there be but little room. this gives a tense of spaciousness to the hall, and makes a pretty architecture feature. here tbe hall is long enough a second ve3 tibul is taken off, where one finds the bat rack and umbrella stands. This is panneled in wcod. There are no doors here, but an creniDg arid a rail which defines the dis tinction between unwrapticg place and main ha'l. One discovers metallic tints in every place, but they are no more appropri ate ttan in the vestibule, lined with com po sition which, when soft, the thumb has indented all over, When this is treated in warm rretallic tints, it reeemb'ei hammered metal, and stands like an adequate defence szaimt the outer world. The buffet and sideboard are nowhere beside the dresrer in tbe dining-room. In new bouses this is made part of the construction, ccverisg almost ore side of the room and its orcarxental forms working into the ceiling. The diesier is of coun e arranged for the dis play of separata pieces of fine china, and its details are generally arranged with reference to its owner a pcseeEsIons. Somewhere generauy cabine's are introdscea. ihese are never so pretty when made of white glass, the de&igns being brought out by means of plain and ribbed glase. Levelled glass is al ways brilliant acd dazzlingly effective. While stained gla?s needs no elcqsence, there are circumstances in which wnlte glass is in bet ter taste. White g'ass, oy no means plain transparent glass. Nothing more cos ate and artistic can be round than plain glass, in which tbe design appears in the leading enclosing an overlay of milky white glass. This nee of glass is found In many of the churches of the Cistercian monks in Pay ce Domes, France, at a time when religion forbade idolatrous color and living forms. This asceticism resulted In great exquisitenets m conventional forma, aad its revival to-day shows a certain reaction worthy of encouragement, A pretty fantasy is a equare window ci stained glass set in the wall ana filing the place of a picture. Here is one designed for the low, level rays ot the even ing sun. A sheet of deep amber gl&sa. on the upper part part a vine wita deep purple Dtcesoma. ana oeiow a luff, snlkr row of purple and yellow flags.
