WOMAN AND HOME.

A RADICAL AND CURIOUS DIFFERENCE IETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN.

Dtfgnor Max in Detroit Freo Press.] -I have many time* observed tha superior tact with which woman adapt* herself to ci runs tanca*. Indeed, ber impulse In that dirt»ction is instinctive. Ha mint be a wise man who shall teach u* wby that is sot We know the migratory habit of bird*. The assumption is that the Creator endowed tbem with a knowledge when to 07 southward and of the time to fly northward. I assume, also, that the creation theory is applicable to women, as explanatoi of her natural desire to fly from base surroundings. It is not worth while to argue that there are many debased women. We all know it but the reason for if to fpupd in artificial circumstances.

J"j

Debasement is unnatural to woman. Even in that condition, however, she illustrates a kind of superiority that seems to me inherent The outcast is, perhaps reckless of ber good fame lost but it is only in the last stage of ber descent into the social sheol that she becomes Indifferent to those refinements which make her attractive. Thus (to deal merely with the small facts of the case) she fond of appearing in pretty clothes she affects the amenities which pure woman practice cleanliness is the governing article of her creed and she has the insatiable stomach for conquest that the world knew all about long before Delilah's time.

The debased man holds all refinemsnti in contempt He makes no sustained effort to escape from his wallow. He is vicious in the degree that he is debased. He takes as kindly to rags as to royal raiment. His speech, bis thoughts, bis acts are always coarse, often brutish. Dirt, literal and other, suits him best A bath gives him moral hydrophobia. He does not care to hide his sores under a garment of assumed politeness. In short, he is the embodiment of "reason ted to brutish beasts."

Here, then, are two propositions that seem to establish a radical and curious difference in the natures of men and women. That difference, as we And it iUustrated in the varying phases of every-day life, must always be a fascinating study to those who seek for the philosophy of things.

Take the woman who marries above her station. At first thought many would be inclined to say that she is fatally misplaced and that she mutt be a cause of endless humiliations to her hiuband. But no man who has learned the alphabet of the woman nature oould be misled by such superficial thought as that Here Is a significant situation in which the womanly adaptiveness is most strikingly demonstrated. True, she oomes from a comparatively low station, but instead of being a clog to her husband's aspirations, and a daily witness to his supposed folly in contracting a misalliance, sho steps into her new offlue conscious of its demands and e$rly compels both respect and admiration..

Do you begin to see that she thus presents against her former low astate and all its unre linemen ts a combination of foroes that is invincible! Of course she wins the victory I Genius for that kind of generalship is her birthright I think I ought to add here that she does not use very noisy powder or fight her battles of this sort tp the sound of gongs.

Let a man marry a woman who is in station and accomplishments his superior, and then make your computation of the time and pains that must be devoted to him before he gives the least sign of progress. You will exhaust the resouroes of arithmetic without arriving at a satisfactory result I have never known a man who was lifted out of a groveling condition by marriage with woman whom he knew and the world knew was his superior. Almost invariably it is the darker side of the picture that is presented. By this I mean that while on the one hand the woman of low surroundings whom marriages removes to a higher and clearer atmosphere readily accommodates herself to the ohanged order, another woman, of better rearing, who marries below her order is quite prone to descend to her husband's plane.

There are several things that I want toremind you of to make the disagreeable part of our work easier. If you must (as sometimes happens) take up a oarpet without car* ryiug out your stove, do not get down on your knees and lift tilt you "*ee stars" and every bone in your body creak*. Do not try to lift the stove with one band and pull the carpet out with the other but get a big •tick of wood and use it as a lever. You will scarcely feel the weight at all that way, and a little child can draw the carpet out for you, 11 you tell him just how. After your carpet is out sprinkle the floor plentifully with wet sawdust, or damp earth. This will clean the dirt up so well (when you sweep it all out together) that you need not eorubthe floor till your wood-work fe all cleaned .J/

Put a little aqua ammonia in the water when you clean your paint Boraxlne in the scrubbing-wator will save you time, soap, and "elbow^gressa.* 1

times. Is a Imost ns injurious. Heated discussions and quarrel*, fretfnlness and sullen taciturnity whiieeating, areas unwholesome as they are unchristian. Oblige both boy* and girl* to observe these principles. This i~ especially advisable with ber whose 'Vorystitational" is now by a walk, instead of a run. and who passfes less than one-third of the time in tbe open air that her brothers da

That a school or college boy "hollow down to tba heels," is a proverb# the truth of which no mother will gainsay. Nor could she alter the fact thus expressed, had sho the power to do it. Even the Billickins of a college town is disquieted, if her lodger has what she would call a "pecking appetite." She may have no other human interest in hi* welfare than the natural desire that be may so far prosper in worldly affairs as to be able to pay ber weekly bill, but loss of relish for food portends illness, and she has no time to waste in nursing sick boys. The kindest matron who presides over tbe table of the young ladies* institute is neither surp^ed nor uneasy when the boarders play with or reject their food. Nor has the the presumptive right to insist that the scanty modicum of provisions they do accept and condescend to swallow shall not be raisins, pies and pickles.

The girl who openly enjoy* bread afid butter, milk, beefsteak and potatoes, and thrives thereby, is the object of many a covert sneer, or covert jest, eveq in these sensible days among sensible people. Bhe who brings up the tone of ber nerves by a cup of coffee and sustains tbe organ of which she is ashamed by a morsel of toast, lifted to listless lip, by a dainty thumb and forefinger, and barely nibbles a strip of boiled bam who carries a bon bon box in her pocket into the school-room, and has a private bottle of olives in her desk to relieve faintnees, is "interesting" in the eyes of ber little court—a soulful creature who looks as if she fed on air. Whatever her elders may think the popular sentiment of ber congeners encourage* her in the cultipation of the fragility which is our material curse and should be ber own and her parents' sorrow. ,*£ "Fresh Air" PhHmnthrophy. -1 (Boston Cor. Albany Journal]

Only the other day, a benevolent lady here went with an assistant into the very lowest quarter of the city and Invited six poor, dilapidated, half starved children under 10 years of age to spend the day at her seaside home. She said it was heart-break-ing to see the wistful faces of the other children in the neighborhood, who watched the departure of their wretched little playmates. Every summer this lady gathers up these stray waifs ana gives them a day's pleasure, independent of charitable associations or "fresh air" funds.

There is a large, airy room in the stable on her estate which she has fitted up for these little transient guests, and there they have a hearty breakfast before being taken down to the shore, where they are given a sea bath and afterward allowed to play in the sand or on the grass under the trees. There is a swing for them, and toys, shovels and pails and dolls for tbe little girls, and a dinner, with plenty of good beef and vegetables and a pudding after, that one tot, whose eyes were bigger than her capacity, cried because she couldn't eat any more of. This is indeed a noble charity, for the kind and generous heart that provides for these children makes no fuss about it, and would be much surprised to hear it spoken of as an unusual act of kindness.

Another lady who formerly lived in Boston, now of New York, does even more for tbe poor children in this vicinity. She has a charming summer place at Brain tree, Mass., and every summer she has twelve or fifteen sickly youngsters taken from the poorest families and brought down to a little cottage near her own bouse, whore they are given a week of sea air and country food, with all the happiness that can be crowded into seven days, under her personal supervision. The benefit that some of these little children derive from this outing in the country can not be calculated, but the one shadow on the picture is the despair they show when obliged to go back to their homes in the city. That Is saddening some are indifferent to tho change, or they do not appreciate what a good time they've had till it is gone. & How Society Customs Dlffter.

INew York Times.]

The ideu and customs of society people in the different cities of the Union are widely different There is an affinity between the young ladies and gentlemen of Baltimore that does not exist so extensively among the best people of tbe other cities of the east A Baltimore girl will go to a ball alone with a. man with every sense of propriety and without shocking anybody's sensibilities, while girl of the same social position in New York would not

ANew York girl will only go to a ball when she is properly chaperoned. I know of a young lady in this city who was even timid of the comments of thoee around her when she went to the theatre with her brother. She said to him: "Some people may know yon are my brother, but a great many will think you are not therefore I do not oare to go to the theatre with you unless there is another lady in tho party."

The difference between a Baltimore and a Philadelphia society girl js (-light Where the former will go to an entertainment alone with a young man the latter will only accompany blm when there are more than one of her own sex with her. As to Boston young ladle*, they have about the same ideas as those of New York in going to or from a dance alone with a young man. In Philadelphia you are asked who yoar grandfather was but in Baltimore they inquire only concerning your qualifications for dancing.

The Sexes Drifting Apart. \i (Boston Letter.)

It ia a strange fact that with the progress of civilisation there come always two different and distinct results. First the intercourse between men and women becomes easier and pleaaanter second, then is a tendency on the part of both men and women to separate their interest* anl even their pleasure*. A certain portion of the day and of the evening is given op to common pleasures, bat there is a large part of each day whan both men and women prefer to be apart I think myself it is a good thing, and so long as what separate* the saxes is their distinctive dutfej it is wall enough.

But among the growing leisure class in the east who have no duties these hoars of separation ara devoted to amassment Yoa woalJ be astonished to know how many society women in Hew Yors aad Boston both smoke aad drink, lb have nothing to d« ts a corse to seen, bat it is deadly poUm to women. They are not, as a ruK so capable of self amassment as ara men aad thay are prone, asia the matter of smoking aad drinking to tamper wife the coarser passe tempe of tike asa Oat of this grows a tnliliw a neisUsain— aboot the nJaordet* ioaciss of social Ufa, which is aotiooabta the mount oae tooofcee the borders of society la Boston, Bow York or Washington.

The coachmen are tricked out more gorge* ously than even those of London ami Paris, and they drive, or sit, with tbe ends of their long whips on their knees with a grotesque dignity, for even they and their horses must contribute something to the general impression of pomp and high breeding which the masters and mistresses must maintain.

Tbesa ladies are accompanied by fewer dogs and more babies than the fashionables of Paris. Those who have babies with tbem hare nurses to attend to them, and these nurses are arrayed wonderfully in the ancient, picturesque costumes of the common people, with gorgeous head-dresses of yellow, blue, or crimson ribbons fluttering abroad with petticoats of bright colors, often trimmed with gold bands or gold fringesThus tbe-e fair and imperious donnas trick out their servants, and thus they drive lazily about and loll and chatter in the lazy air of an Italian evening.

The Latest Fancy.

IQodey's Magazine.]

Parisiennes have taken an extravagant affection for birds, which about equals the pug-dog mania now on the wane. The mania for birds is as strong as it was in the days of tbe Empress Josephine. In evbry fashionable boudoir you will find on a plushcovered table, amid books, reviews, bonbonnira and feminine trifles of all kinds, a lovely cage of carved ivory, tortoise shell, mother-of-pearl or chased silver, which imprisons two or more rare exotic birds, or a pair of green love birds. The seeds which they eat are held in a silver cup they drink from little bowls of Bohemian glasa The bottom of tbe cage is sprinkled every morning with the saw-dust of a scented wood in place of sand.

Lastly, the rarest and most beautiful hothouse flowers are attached between tbe bars of the cage for the birds to smell and pluck to pieces with their bills. To what extravagance will fashion next lead her votaries! The cost of keeping a whole family moderately is trifling in comparison with what is now wasted on pets.

Mark Twain's has written a letter in which he asserts that bis children are wellbehaved, well governed, and occasionally charming, and he refers to Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, Charles Dudley Warner, and his other Hartford neighbors as wit* nessea He attribute) this goodness to his wife's training. He emphasizes the point in her discipline that no promise is broken to the youngsters, whether it involves a whipping or a picnic. In administering corporal punishment she invariably lets a few hours elapse between the sentence and the execution, so that uo anger on her part shall enter into the matter and he affirms that the "child never goes away from the scene of torture until it has been loved back into happy-heartedness and a joyful spirit"

Cholera Infantum.

[Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.] Cholera infantum is quite as much a flith disease as Asiatic cholera unwholesome or improper diet being the immediate cause and foul air and generally unsanitary sur* roundings the predisposing and aggravating condition. A good deal of real missionary work might be done among the poor in showing mothers how to save the lives of their infant children. Experienced physicians will tell them that care of the diet is everything, but nine mothers in ten need more explicit directions. Over-feeding, the almost universal mistake of American mother*, is one prime cause of digestive troubles, and doubtless many a fated baby might be saved by Mmply giving its overtaxed stomach long intervals of rest,

After you come to know people very intimately, you do not know whether they are pretty or not Their ways make an impression (n you, but not their noses and ears, their eyes and mouths. In time tbe soul expresses itself to you. and it is that which you see. A man who has been married twenty years scarcely knows what his wife looks like. He may declare that he does, and tell you that she is a bewitching little blonde, with soft blue eyes, long after she is fat and red and 40 because the image of his early love is in his heart, and he doesn't see ber as she is to-day, but as she was when he courted her.

Or, being an indifferent husband he may not know she is the fine woman that other people think her. You have known men who have married the plainest women and think the in beauties and you know beauties who are quite thrown away on men who value a wife for her success as a cook.

Training for Her Station. [Chicago Herald.]

Five years ago a remarkably bright and pretty girl of 17 worked in a San Francisco laundry. The son of wealthy parent) fell In love with her. She returned his passion, but said she would not marry him, as he wished, because she was uneducated and coarse. Then he offered to send her away to schooL She accepted this offer. During the ensuing four years she was ia a Montreal convent, very apt and studious. The training wrought all the chauge that was desirable, and the wedding took place, with along tour in Europe afterward. The couple returned to San Francisco lately. To show that she had neither forgotten nor was ashamed of her former employment, the bride gave a gran 1 supDer to those of ber old companions who could be brought together. l'\ Mark Twain's Children.

Pelted Persistently with Shells by font JiiB Yankee Men-of-War, with Flfteen Hundred Barrels of Powder In the Hold.

[Sew Orleans Times-Democrat] "I was returning from Havana on a block-ade-runner bound for Galveston," said Mr. Frank Von Paul to a group of old Confederate soldiers. "The captain's name was Barnr.rd, and he was from Philadelphia. We Lauled out past the Morro castle jnst as day was breaking. Our course was laid so as to strike the beach channel at the end of Galveston island, and after a quick run we found ourselves at its entrance one night about 8 o'clock without a breath of air stiring. It was a dead calm. We knew we were in sight of the blockading flea" outside, and when daylight came they would surely see us. What made the situation all the more exciting was the fact that the little schooner had on board as her cargo 1.500 barrels of powder, and with it 1,500 Enfield rifles. One shell striking us would have ended the trip quite briefly. "Perhaps for those who do not know the old channel down there a brief description of it will make our jeopardy somewhat plainer. Running along the island about a quarter of a mile off shore was what wa) known as the beach channel, and just outside of this ran a sand bar the whole length. This dividing ridge, or bar, precluded any large vessel from running in directly across the bows of a craft in the channel. To overhaul a vessel once in it it would be necessary to run down and enter as she did. A chasing ship could, however, come up abreast outside the bar and bo within easy range of the craft inside. "The captain was very uneasy all night, He said we were gone, for when dayhght broke they would open on us surely. From our position they oould see us plainly from the mast-head. We were about fifteen miles from Galveston at this time.

M£'etween

sprang up. To take advantage of it we set every »tich of canvass ani went boomingly along handsomely. Tbe wind that aided us, however, carried off tbe fog. "Slowly the masts of the blockading fleet began to rise higher on the horlson. We felt that our fate was approaching. It was not long before their hulls could be discerned, four of them, all coming directly for u-i. By this time we had made considerable distance toward Galveston, and were well in the channel The heavy ships could not head us off on account of the bar between us and tbem, so they ran in as close to the bar as possible, and lined up along its outside edge awaiting our passage across the line of their fire. "There had been a heavy blow outside the day before and there wax still a rough sea running, which was greatly in our favor, aa it rendered their aim less accurate. Inside the bar we were in smooth water. This was the critical moment and the captain was on the alert watching every man and every rope. lt' "Wo Wiiat bowling along before the eightknot breeze, approaching tho line abreast the first man-of-war. Each stitch of canvas was drawing and every rope was taut The situation was anything but comfortable. This having over 1,500 barrels of gunpowder was sufficient food for reflection. As soon as we came fairly abreast of the fir-t ship there was a huge cloud of smoke bursting from her side, and even before tbe deep boom of the guns reached us her shot and shell whistled overhead and went plunging into the rolling 'sand dunes on the island. "To make the scene all the more exciting quite a number of horsemen had congregated on the behch, and were yelling and whooping to us to go on, and to 'shake her up.' They were keeping us company along the shore when the first broadside was delivered, and when great volumes of sand were thrown up by the shells the little Texas ponies disappeared behind the hills in a hurry. They reappeared from time to time to encourage us on. "As soon as the first vessel had delivered her initial round she turn9d on her cable and let us have ber other side. This fell short of us Some distance. Then she turned bow on and gave us her bow gun. With this the aim was better, for the shot went through our mainsail. Although it tore groat hole, it did not diminish our speed much. "In a few minutes we were in range of the second ship, an I she gave us a salute also. The heavy .sea out-ide was much in our favor, for they could not get the range well, and either overshot or undershot us all the time. The water around us was churned with shot, and the shriek of shell was not as rtiusical as some things I have heard. We were all thinking of that powder under deck. •, However, there was no manifestation of excitement in any one of the crew. All were as cool as if they had beeii raised on board a man-of-war. "Much quicker than it takes me to tell ii we came within tbe range of the third ship, and she opened. And then the fourth. Then all concentrated their fire on us. The air seemed full of missiles. Acroas the waters came the deep bellow of the guns, almost continuous ia their rolL On shore now and then a horseman would ride out from behind the sand hill) and cheer us on, waving bis hat wildly and making his pony go through his cavorting) and phinginga "Fragments of shell struck us in more than forty places. Luckily for U) they were mostly small bits, and did no particular damage. Tbeir bow gnns always did the beet shooting, and a considerable portion of our rigging was cut op by them. "In a short time tbe flagstaff ci South battery showed ahead, and naturally we were on tbe look-out tear our friends to open on the ships. Yet on we went, nearer and nearer, and not a gnn was fired by the Confederate battery. We could see signal flags waving from toe several stations along the beach as we passed, and als- a signal officer in the battery answering, but still no gun. "As we neared Soatfa battery the city of Galveston came into view. It was a grand sight Tbe heavy fire outside had alarmed everybody, and the people had turned oat on masse, thinking perhaps that tbe longlooked for attack on the city had commenced.
