A Cool Scene.

Des Moines (Iowa) Leader. An entrancing engraving of a boating party occupies the first page of July Womankind, published in Springfield, Ohio. The pictures Are all of high grade. The paper is devoted to the interests of women and home, and seems to judiciously combine fiction, fashion, art culture, care of household and children, hinps for business women, etc., while also dealing with the upward progress of women, particularly as shown at the World's Fair. The notes from the editor, Elizabeth Cherry Haire, sent from the “White City,” are bright and helpful. The letters from Munich, London, and other foreign cities are charmingly written, and show the progress of woman’s work in foreign lands. Every thing is original and very readable. We were impressed by a letter from Florence Balgarnie, who is associated with Lady Somerset in the conduct of the Woman’s Herald, of London, and who writes of the Woman’s Federation of England, which is a warm ally of the Liberal party, and yet is not a suffrage organization.

It js stated that Womankind does not advocate woman's suffrage, but regards it as a problem worthy of the widest discussion. The paper seems to us non-sectarian and non-partisan, recording news, facts and experiences helpful to all women, and we advise the ladies to send for a free sample copy. The price, 50 cents a year, would not be possible except for its large circulation, the magazine being a consolidation of Woman’s News, Indianapolis; Woman and Home, New York; Woman’s Recorder, .Toledo, 0., and American Home, St. Paul, Minn. This is the paper we offer to oui’ subscribers free if they will pay up their delinquency and one year’s subscription in advance, or to any new’ subscriber who will send us SI.OO. Take advantage of this offer.
