One of the. prominent patriotic club women of Massachusetts Is Mrs. Lue Stuart Wadsworth of Boston, who is particularly distinguished for her work in the Woman's Relief corps. Mrs. Wadsworth is a member of Dahlgreu corps. No. 20, of South Boston. She was bom in California, but during her childhood her parents, Samuel and Margaret Turner Stuart, came to Boston. She received her education in the public schools. A descendant of seven soldiers of the Revolution, she is Justly proud of her escutcheon. In 1887 she became Intensely interested in patriotic work and Joined the Woman’s Relief corps. Later she married Captain Edward B. Wadsworth, prominently connected with the Massachusetts volunteer militia. Mrs. Wadsworth has been honored three times

MRS. LUE STUART WADSWORTH.

with the presidency of corps 20. For ten years she has been a patriotic Instructor and was the first to obtain permission of the Boston school board to place flags in the' public schools. Through her efforts nearly all the public and parochial schools in South Boston have had placed in their rooms copies of the Declaration of Independence, flags and drawings giving the origin of the stftrs and stripes. Mrs. Wadsworth is historian of John Adams chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution and an associate member of Paul Jones chapter of the same society. She is a chapter member of the George Vashiqgton Memorial rssociation, a life patron of the National Council of Women, a member of the Eastern Star, the Woman's Charity club, the Ladles’ Aid association of the Soldiers' home and Mattapannock club of South Boston.—Boston Traveler.

Always Keep Faith. Many a woman who would not think of lightly breaking a promise made to a grownup person Is utterly careless about keeping her wofd with her children. She promises whatever is convenient at the moment and apparently thinks that the breaking or keeping of those promises Is a matter In which she can please herself and that her children have no right to consider themselves aggrieved if she does not do so. A mother who acts thus does her child grievous harm. She forgets that the sense of Justice Is strong In quite a little child and that It Is natural and reasonable that he should expect his parents to be as good as their word and to fulfill their promises even at the cost of convenience. Promises should not be lightly broken, and the parent who is guilty of this soon loses his children’s confidence, which is one of the sweetest things which our little ones can give us. When boys and girls learn to doubt their parents’ truthfulness, says the Loudon Gentlewoman, they soon look around for some one else whom they can trust, and on that person they shower their affection and bestow their confidence.

Rn*«. In the matter of rugs the Inexperienced young housewife la very apt to err on the grlce. A cheap rug Is an abomination, and bare floors are preferable. Better to have one good rug, representing self denial and strictest economy, than the hideous patterns and colors that are always the hall mark of the cheap article. Such lovely stains, as far as coloring goes, come now for floors—rich dark bluefe, greens and browns—that the absence of a rug is hardly noticed. Some of the prettiest coverings for a floor, artistic and subdued, are the Dhurrl rugs, but It Is almost Impossible to keep them flat. They will roll at the ends. Of course, the real oriental rug Is the very best, where It can be afforded at all, for beauty and durability. It Is, however, rather heavy for the smaller rooms. In these, If the Navajo blanket will not be at open war with the other furnishings, choose that. Only the brilliant dyes In these substantial blankets make them difficult to use, red and white, with plenty of black, usually predominating.
