Tho large province of Ontario touches the whole northern bounds of New York and Michigan, part of those of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin and Minnesota and reaches to Hudson's bay. This great region, throughout which women vote (unless married) on like terms with their brothers for ail elective officers save two, has a hundred and two thousand square miles. It is more than twice the size of New York it nearly equals New York and Michigan together it equals Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey and Maryland.

In Wyoming women vote for every office for which their brothers do and on the same terms. This great territory has 98,000 square miles. It is half as large again as all New England, nearly as large as New England and New York, about equals New York, New Jersey and Virginia, is more than twice tho size of Pennsylvania and Delaware, larger than North and South Carolina, than South Carolina and Florida.

Kansas, the state where municipal woman suffrage exists, contains 82,000 squaro niilea It is greater than the joint extent of New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Con necticut, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia and Rhode Island—of nine states of the (Jnion combined—and greater than either of the original thirteen, than majority of the thirteen together, and than either of thirty-two of the today thirty eight

But there is a greater region where women exercise suffrage, though not at polls. Many will l»e surprised to learn that this is—Texas! In that state the school officers are chosen by petitions to the county judge for their appointment, and he, of course, appoints those whoso petitions are most largely signed. These petitions women, on the same terras with their brothers, can sign, and thus practically vote without leaving home. Texas has 2(55,000 square miles, and is larger than California and Oregon nearly equal to all the Atlantic states but three to all the other states on the Gulf.

In England, Scotland and Wales woman (unlets married) vote for all elective officera save one (member of parliament), on like terms with their brothers. In Ireland women •ote everywhere for poor law guardians In Dundalk and other seaports for harbor boards, and in Belfast for all municipal officers. In Sweden their suffrage is about the same as in Britain, and they vote, too, indi rectly for members of tho houso of lords. In Russia women, heads of households, vote for all doctive officers and on all local questions. In Austria-Hungary they vote (by proxy) at all elections, including members of provincial and imperial parliaments. In Italy widows •ote for members of parliament In Finland women vote for elective officers. In British Burmah women taxpayers vote in tho rural tracts. In Madras Presidency (Hindostan) they can vote in all municipalities. In Bombay Presidency they likewise can. In all coun tries of Russian Ada they can do so wherever

Russian colony settles. The Russians are colonising the whole of their vast Asian possessions, and they carry with them everywhere the "mir," or self governing village, wherein women, heads of households, vote. Municipal suffrago now exists in New Zealand, and the legislature lias resolved that women shall voto for members of parliament It also exists in Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia. Tho latter^ parliament has declared for wotnon's voting at parliamentary elections, too.—New York Graphic.

Wuto in tbo Kitchen.

Tho table is tho place where mo6t waste oaii occur, so guard it well and pay strict attention to tho second serving of food. The

rtheir

plo who prefer an economical table, which own mind moans broiled steak and roast beef, are tho most difficult to cater for.

Study to moke the warmed over dishes decidedly moro than ordinary hashca. Employ judicious combinations and pleasant seasonings for instanco, uso sage with warmed over pork, parsley with poultry, sprig of mint with your mutton or lamb and a little onion to stimulate the boef.

Cucuuibor catsup, inexpensive if you make it yourself, hoightens the flavor of llsh. An acid jolly with tamo duck, and tomato sauce with wanned over veal.

For warming over dark moats use brown sauccs mado from browned butter and flour for whito meats cream sauces, which, of course, can be mado from milk. One or two potatoes, left from dinner, will make a comlortablo dish of Lyonnaise potatoes for breakfast

Tho two tablespoonfuls of green peas left may bo turned into an omelot for another meaL Boiled rice may be made into croquettes. Fish into scallops, cutlets or cream fish. Ham into croquettes. Beef into hash, meat bolls, ragouts, rissoles or warmed up in its own gravy.

Soup meat may be pressed or potted. Qamo aud duck, made over into Chicken and turkey, into salads, croquettes, rissoles, boudins and timbale. Pieces of bread, left at the table, may be used for toast, croutons, bread puddings or crumbs for breadiug. Veal, re warmed, makes delicious blanquetto or cromesqui

Many vegetables suffer but little from a warming, and even if only in small quantity, may be served as a garnish for a little meat dish, thereby rendering it palatable and sightly.—Table Talk.

4 The Night Lamp. Such a practice is severely condemned by many who believe a night lamp aot only corrupts the atmosphere of a sleeping room and weakens the littfc folks' eyes and poisons their ftings, as well aa their own, and who also affirm the habit is most pernicious in that the children becomo strongly attached to a night light, and so dependent on it that they cannot secure sound, refreshing sleep without it, waking with a start or scream if they are left in darkness, and demanding a lighted bedroom till even past childhood years.

Mothers of very young children cro apt and need to skep with one eye open, but little good will wakeful eyes do if they cannot see tho little fr-^1 near tK—n. "What hapj

Oh, so many distressing accidents might happen. Once, on wot-uT the

mean

badsat, kftving our chi cri:..-kas a catacomb, I hesitated to feel for the little face that I believed was oo tbo "ow bes"' knowing troll that even t_. n*ostc~_u.us, gentle reaching out over tho head of thefts sensitive U^ht sleepers *i0 frighten and rora drsaof&sn with a sharp scream bat fail in- k«r the little flutteri&g breath in tho Laky tLarknces, with cautious fumbling I hunted for the fa «-rrontfcs-cH baby and found it—not -n but :«r It, a happening which I should have instantly discovered on waking had a night lamp been

burning, and which, undisoovered, seemingly would have resulted in suffocation. Babies very frequently roll or get turned upon their faces when asleep, and if weak or very young they have not strength to lift their heavy, helpless little heads from out the sinking, suffocating bolster, and the preyfrtyi ufe may go out if there is no watchful eye to the mischief but even a mother's wakeful eye must fail to eae her baby's peril if her room is in Egjyptian darkness.—Good Housekeeping. ***,.Af

'^"fcesh Air the Best Disinfectant. If people only knew the value of fresn air as a disinfectant they would not be so anxious to close it out of their dwellings. I dont know whether you know it or not, but the very best disinfectant in the world is good fresh, pure, common atmosphere. The oxy gen that is in it will destroy any disease genua it can gist at, and, take my word for it, if our houses were well filled with good, pure atmosphere there would be much less diphtheria and other diseases that we have been having lately. The habit that people generally have fallen into, as soon as they think winter is approaching, of filling up every seam and crevice about the doors and windows, and making their houses practically air tight, and keeping them that way until the following spring, is a very baneful one, particularly so in reforence to tho basements, where sewer gas is most likely to accumulate, and from there make its way up through every room in the house.

Of course it is desirable that our homes should be kept moderately warm and free from cold draughts, but this is quite compatible with on abundant supply of fresh air. Air, to bo fresh and pure, need not necessarily be oold, but provision should be mode, in the construction of our houses, for thorough ventilation in such a way as to avoid draughts. In houses already built, however, where such provision has not been made, a little cold air now and again would be much less detrimental than the vitiated stuff which the majority of people breathofor six months in the year.—Physician in Chicago Journal.

Marriage in the Future.

Good Minister (a married man)—Do you wish to marry this woman? Man—1 da

Minister—Do you wish to marry this Woman—I do. Minister—Do you like the city as a place of residence!

Man—No I prefer tho suburbs. Minister—Do you like the suburbs! \f Woman—No, indeed, I prefer the city. Minister—Aro you a vegetarian in dietf Man—No I hate vegetables. I live on beef.

Woman—I can't bear meat I am a vegetarian. Minister—Do you like a sleeping room well ventilated!

Man—Yes I want the window way down summer and winter. Minister—Do you like so much fresh air!

Woman—No it would kill me. I want all windows closed. Minister—Do you like a light in the room!

Man—No can't sleep with a light want the room dark. Minister—Aro you afraid in tho dark!

Woman—Indeed I am I have always had a bright light in my room. Minister—Do you like many bedclothes!

Man—All I can pile oo. Minister—Do you! Woman—No they suffocate me. Minister—I hereby pronounce you man and wife, and may the Lord have mercy on your souls.—New York Weekly.

Popularity of the Dance.

There is a great deal of argument in regard to the morality of dancing, but if any one has an idea that tho rotatory exerciso is growing unpopular iu New York ho should contemplate the patronage of the leading rinrtfing teacher of the towu, who ha* his big square house on Fifth avenue thronged with pupils from morning till nijht, and then up to 19 o'clock. At 5 o'clock on every after noon, when the young people's classes are breaking up, tho avenuo in the locality is thronged with a larger array of carriages than tho greatest social event in New York oould call forth, and tho hurrying, skurryias children, with their maids and their mother*, fono one of the most bewildering sights of the metropolis

A cfaver thing oo the part of the swell ftttrxMng master is his manner of retaining people for his pupils season after season He does this'by inventing a new dance each winter, and altering the waits to such an extent as to mako it necessary to go to him for the latest movement In this way ho keep* ladles on his floor who ware considered the poetry of motion more than ten years aga Considering the immense crowds of patrons that ythis man receives, Us income during the winter must be quite cotoaod. Now that the minuet is to be made fashionable again, he will doubtless have to hire some moro mansions to accommodate his overflow of customers. —New York Sun.

alt, she replied that she ate as much or more at every and had done so ever since she could remember also, that she believed a larger consumption than hers was not uncommon. Salt in moderation is absolutely necessary to health, indeed to prolonged iife. Its chief component, hydrochloric acid, is part of gastric juice, and needful in small quantities. But when these are increased free acid appears on the scene, and, acting as a powerful irritant, develops acid or nervous dyspepsia to an uncomfortable degree. Continued, stomach membranes lose secreting power, become thickened and insensitive. nnH a long train of symptoms like those of organic heart disease begin to appear, and prove exceedingly obstinate to cure. A half teaspoonful of salt daily, exclusive of what is used in food, is all that should be eaten by anv adult

A Woman's Medical College*The Philadelphia Woman's Medical college is now in its thirty-ninth year, and is the largest and oldest college in the world devoted to the preparation of women for medical careers. This past year it matriculated 160 women, among whom were women from Japan, China and Australia, and from every state in the Union. Its course consists of three years, with an additional year's study, a sort of post-graduate course, which is not Obligatory, but which is strongly recommended by the faculty, and as a rule added by thostu dents to their course. It has received several handsome endowments and legacies from women, and just now there is talk of establishing a chair of "preventive medicine," the object of which is to encourage scientific investigation of the conditions under which diseases originate and thrive, and the demonstration and practical application of the principles of hygiene, the influence of physical culture on development, and the correction of conditions prejudicial to health. In connection with this new chair is to be a laboratory and gymnasium.—Boston Tran-

"Winifred Johnson" asks: "Is it proper to marry within the year of mourning! If so, what does the bride wear! Should she give a reception! If so, do the guests come in black! Does her mother wear black!"

It is the custom to wait a year, but if there are reasons why a wedding should take place before, tho bride wears a white dress to be married in, and can resume her mourning after. At the wedding receptions in England the bride's mother would wear red and resume her mourning the next day. No one should, however, go to a wedding in a heavy crepe veil the thing is incongruous. Mourning can he laid aside for tho day and a reception lie given if the bride choose, but a wedding given by a family whose loss is recent does not generally include a reception.—Mrs. Sherwood in St Louis Republic.

Sugge*tiv« Intnruiliwioii.

From recent observations it would appear that the ladies have struck a new "fad." They have discarded the white linen collar. The effect of this cannot bo said to be beautiful. It looks as though an impatient escort and a. persistent clock had hurried a young lady away to the theatre before she had time to complete her toilet It does not look natural for a fair and well rounded neck to start up abruptly from a black dress without first going in the regulation why through a spotless white collar. As George Woods, the comedian, says when ho describes the bare legs of kilted Highlanders, "There seems to bean intermission that calls for an overture." —Chicago ilerald. t.

Announcing an Engagement. The fashion has been set of having one's left hand photographed when it acquires the decoration of a betrothal ring. Odd little pictures showing pretty hands resting on velvet cushions or waving somewhat aimlessly in air are the newest form of announcing an engagement, and are mailed, with that end in view, to friends. The member is pictured of nearly life size to bring out the jewelry to advantage. This eccentric fancy is followed more modestly by some girls who have but a single copy printed, which is framed in ivory and silver and presented to the betrothed by way or deed testifying to his ownership of the original.—Buffalo News.

Winks—Bless his little heart So the Indies come and sit and admire and talk about the little cherub, do they! Of course, they do they can't hdp loving

Mrs. Winks—Gracious mel It wasn't my baby she talked about, it was her own.— Philadelohia Record.

Quite a Change.

Mrs. Annie Besant, the somewhat strident and noted confrere of Bradlaugh, is a mem her of the London school board, and goes about to schools lecturing and has a mighty Wgsay at all meetings. This is a little odd when it is remembered that in London a few years since Mrs. Besant was at the time of her service denied the custody and training of her own children because of her pronounced atheistic views. Now she has a say in the training of thousands of London children.—New Orleans Picayune.

sProtwt the Babies.

Babies are muab more sttsceptible to cold than ere adults, yet a mother will go out warmly clad from head to foot, and let her child patter along beside her. with less than half of her protection. Her precaution should be to avoid exposing the babe to draughts of cold air from windows.

Popular CoMfaxee—All About the Catogan Already Adopted Abroad Ond Likely to Find Favor for One Season at Ltaft

Among American Women. "Catogan," a word of mysterious signification, is looming on the fashionable horizon. Strictly speaking the French word "catogan" means a club, and the serious importance of this fact may be estimated when we report the latest intelligence that the hair worn high over the brow in Paris and arranged at the back in a "catogan."

A. FASHIONABLE COIFFURE.

The days of the chignon are over the horse tail is now the privilege only of small girls bangs are left to barmaids and the servants in liberal minded households. Tho coming style is to rake the hair forward to the top of the head. But there, instead of being projected forward, it is caught and massed just in that part of tho central parting where gentlemen generally begin to find their hair growing thin. The raison d'etre of this style of hair dressing is not far to seek. Woman, ambitious woman, is always trying to add a cubit to her stature. She did it once by high heeled boots anon she crowned herself with the prodigious hat and now she is adopting the pde of hair. We foresee but a short life for this new—or, rather, this revived—fashion. It does not suit long fuced people. To add a cubit to one's faco is not so satisfactory as to add the same measure to one's stature. Yet this is what the catogan will effect .Chubby, short ladies may find the new mode effective but the thin ones will vote against it, even at the risk of reducing themselves to their normal fivo feet two.

In the annexed cut is represented a French coiffure that is equally appropriate for a Wedding or a ball. The front hair falls as a crepe fringe over the forehead. In the center may appear either jeweled ornaments or flowers. The back of this coiffure is a loose catogan

Ball Dresses.

Ball gowns at tho present moment are more in demand in fashionable society than any other. Tho Empire short waisted bodices and straight skirts are making their way among women who really dress well, and an admirable example is a gray crepe de Chine, drawn into the figure with a sash of gold and silver embroidery, caught up on the skirt with clasps tho entire drapery falling in ono piece.

A YOUNG LADY'S BALL GOWN. In the cut is shown a uniquo fall gown for a young lady. It is of gray bluo Bengaline, wrought with silver tho low bodice and kilted panel in either crape or net, tho whole elaborately trimmed with turquois blue satin ribbon shot with silver. Bows on the shoulders.

Black continues to be worn for balls. A gown seen recently had a black crepe lisee front, embroidered all over with tiny flowera. Fancy gauxes are much worn over silk gowns.

Anew class of ball gown was dTaped over white Sicilienne, mado with a baby bodice, a sash crossing it from the side and fastening in a careless bow, which had ends reaching to the hem of the skirt Pink to a fashionable shade. A gown in this tone had a rosette ruche round tho hem, over which falls a skirt of mousseline de soie, hemmed and covered all ovec with tufts of moss and gold thread, which resembles at a distance a flight of bees. The skirts in all these cases touch the ground, while dinner dresses are made long. Very beautiful embroidery is introduced

Another r..' .:

on

to the

gowns worn by married women at balls. These aro a marked contrast to the simplicity of those dresses of crepe lisso worn by young girls, with bodices and skirt very flat back guad front, and tied with a wide sash.

Fashions for Men.

Studs are now universally worn with evening dress. Some gentlemen wear two very •man studs, while others wear three. Either number is correct Five pearls of small size and fine of small size divide favor men of middle age, while younger more to small but flawless rubies. Many conservative men continuo to wear the white enamel studs, and others give the preference to small studs of pure gold.

The luxurious habits of men about town are this season illustrated in the new fad for hand painted suspenders with gold or silver buckles. Tbo suspender buckles are made in a variety of patterns, and are purchased, aa a rule, by the young ladies who point or em broider the silt braces with which they aro to bo worn. It need hardly be told that the lady's mouogram occasfannny appears in the intricacies of v. rod design.

ALL AROUND THE HOUSE

Charming New Decorative Objects Produced by Skillful Art Workers. There are some delightful little screens t.hnt are most ornamental. Two fold and four fold they are, and fanciful enough for the most elegantly furnished boudoirs. Some are paneled with brocades of almost indescribable tints, which are still further embellished with embroidery. Tho frames are very light and graceful, with railings at the top and a deeper rail at the bottom.

A quaint screen panel is embroidered with a small pattern worked on it hero and there, suggestive of the Japanese mode.

A good specimen of what can be done by. a clever transferer is a chair covering which is used on a fancy carved chair. The work has been transferred on to white drill, which shows up the beautiful tints of the wool splendidly.

Modern copies of old embroidery are very fashionable, and for occasional chairs white drill seats, worked with bronze, green and brown foliage, thrown up with terra cotta and soft blue flowers, are welcome additions to morning rooms and libraries.

A handsome hall chair is one covered in terra cotta plush, embroidered with paler shades of terra cotta, bordered with fringe to match.

New foot stools aro heart shaped or square, on straight wooden legs. Tho tops are cov ered with embroidered serge, and ribbons are tied into bows about tbo legs. An electric blue serge is worked with soft shades of pink and bluo fiowei's, and pink and electric blue ribbons finish off the dainty little affair.

Many tea cloths are embellished with drawn linen borders. A more fanciful tea cloth is of whito linen with drawn work and corner sprays of chrysanthemums done in terra cotta silk. A white serge table cover is em broidered with a set pattern in various col ors and edged with lace.

Perfumed Bureau Mats.

A fine towel, or even a white paper, is tho usual cover for tho bottom of bureau drawers, but how much daintier is a.set of perfumed mats for that purpose, or at least one mat for the top drawer in, which one's most cherished possessions aro usually kept The prettiest of these, according to The Home Maker, are made of satin lined with muslin, with an interlining of sheet wadding, upon which is sprinkled some violet powder. Outside and lining aro run together and edged with chenille tho color of the satin. Cross stitches in embroidery silk are taken at intervals to tack the mat in squares like a small quilt

For the top of a bureau or dressing table, a charming cover is mode in a similar way of vory rich satin or velvet, edged with a broad ruching of watered ribbon, box plaited in tho center. Tack the mat hi small squares, cov ering each stitch with a pearl bead.

Egg Broth and Egg Tea.

Egg broth and egg tea for invalids: For egg broth boat an egg until it is frothy stir into it a pint of boiling hot meat broth, free from fat, season it with a saltspoonful of salt, and cat it hot, with thin slices of dry toast it may bo given to assist the patient in gaining strength.

For egg tea, beat the yolk of an egg in a cup of tea, and let tho sick person drink it warm the yoke is more readily digested than the white, and has a better flavor and the tea is a powerful respiratory excitant, while it promotes perspiration, and aids the assimi lation of more nourishing foods.

'Tf%Cranberries Kept Fresh. To keep cranberries fresh an experienced housewife says to put them into cold water. No matter if they freeze there is no way that they koop so nico and fresh. Ono needs to bo careful not to break the skins so that the juice will run out but they will bo just as fresh and round in May as in November. There is no other method that keeps them uncooked as nico as this, and cranberries are always better when fresh than when preserved, and take less sugar, too, either for pies or' sauce.

Vanilla Cake.

A tempting French rc# pe is tho following for vanilla cake: Five ounces white almonds are pounded with three eggs, then mixed with fivo ounces sugar, tho yolks of eight eggs and little vanilla, and the wholo stirred to a foam. To this mass is added tho beaten whites of four eggs, two ounces and a half flour and lastly a cup of milk. The mold is lined with puff paste, tho above mass poured into it and baked very slowly.

A Paint for Wire Work,

Boil somo good linseed oil with as much litharge as will make it of the consistency to bo on with the brush, then add lamp black at tho rato of one part for every ten parts by weight of tho litharge. Boll the wholo for three hours over a gontlo fire. Tho first coat should bo thinner than the succeeding ones.

Frei'.i Laid Kggs*

"New laid eggs havo a pearly, semi-trans-parent shell, a little rough to tho touch, and aro heavy in proportion to their size. As they grow stale they decrcaso in weight" Such is the description which Miss Corson gives to assist ono in marketing..
