GRANDEUR OF THE PLACE WOMEN HOLD IN CIVILIZATION.

To Ha*ten the Coming of the Golden Afc. A Wlfe'i Difficult Position How to Treat the Baby—Information for the

Benefit of the Housekeeper.

Our reformers liavo been pointing oat for years that all the perpetual effort to debar women from fair employment, liberal education, and just recognition bos really had nothing but contempt at the foundation. The place assigned to that sex' by one enthusiastic orator, "a little higher than tho angels, but less than man," was plainly untenable If woman really exists but as a child bearing animal, Jet us say so frankly, and not cover it up tinder fine names. But the fine names seemed so mnch prettier, it was so charming to paint madonnas, to draw an aureole round the head that watched the cradle, or to moke, as in Wertlier, even the cutting of bread and butter for children a ceremony for seraphs, that the general tendency has been all that way. An immense deal of real injustice to women, a great deal of repression to the intellect, of spoliation to property, tins been carried on under cover of these lofty sentiments.

There was something for better, because franker, in the simple old Russian marriage formula, "Here, wolf, take thy lamb," or, in tho modern theory of Mr. Allen, "that women, on tho whole, are mostly told off to be wives and mothers, or, in other words, to perform mero reproductive functions. All tho vast gains of oar race in the progress toward civilization have been gains made for the most part by men alone. The functions that especially fall upon woman are those which woman, as female, shares equally with all other females of tho mammalian type.. Any other belief soems to mo pre-Darwinion and anti-biological. "—Forum, May, 1889.

To those who remember the late Mr. Darwin in his home, and the simple and equal dignity of position that belonged to himself and his high minded wife—the common pride thev took in the training and usefulness of thou- flno sons—thero is an outrago In the very introduction of the name of that great man into so cheap a bit of pseudo mediooval philosophy as this. When wo remember that Darwin himsolf, though be thought men tho superiors of women in respect to long susmental work, yet fell back upoq the slmplo formula, "Woman seems differ from man in mental disposition chiefly in her greater tenderness and less selfishness" {Descent of Man, Am. Ed., II, 311) and when we consider that he himself was glad to use the intelleotual aid of tho other sex, so far as to submit all tho manuscript of his greatest book to a woman for literary rovisjon (LiCo, I, fill), it might bo as well to leave out the uamo of Darwin from the discussion. To say that "all that is distinctively human is man—tho fiold, tho ship, the mine, the workshop"—is to omit that which is more distinctively human and more essential than all these put together—tho home.

To say that "all that is truly woman is morely reproductive" is to imply that any savage, auy criminal, any idiotio or insano woman, so long as she can bear and iw young, is doing a woman's work as fully as Queen Victoria or as Lucretia Mott. When Mr. Allen enumerates "the homo, the nursery, tho school room," as included in the truly womanly, ho concedes everything for it* l|i«a represent not merely the cradlo of the f. and

mau' Qnt*

ot civilization itself.

N a a a is a to

what Fran00 most needed he did not say morely "mothers," but "good mothers." The addition of the adjective constituted the difference between his theory and that of Mr. "Allen,

Civilisation, progress, even decency, imply the homo, and homo implies not morely the preeenoe of woman, but of educated and refined woman. The early California emigrants who oheerod the first arrival of wives and daughters, "Three cheers for the ladies -who have come to mako us bottcrl" knew the meaning of the word civilisation better than •tfr, AUou. Tho merely physical function of child bearing cw** Whilo wnan is otherwise In tho pHrno of life, but her Importance jff a factor lu civilisation is then just begun. That man is to be pitied who has not had tho experience of owing a large port of what is civilised and enlightened in himself to tho direct influence of woman.

It Is a compensation, in many cans, for the early loss of a father, to be thus drawn to do justice to what ono owes to tlio sex to long subjected to tho cruel whim* of narrow theologians on tho one side, of crudo scientists on tho other. There are multitudes of men who can say, after such an experience, that there never was a moment when the intellectual stimulus and guidance of their mothers were not worth more to them than any other influence whatever. The nursery and school room not merely train character, which lies behind all intellect, but tbey begin tho training of intellect itself, and they practically never ksvo off while an enlightened mother lives.—T. W. II. in Harper* Basar.

Window Cleaning.

The cleaning of windows seams to bo a very easy matter, yet many housewives would prefer to do any other port of tho houso cleaning than this. Never begin this work until all the paint is cleaned, bat, more eepoclallj", that part about tho windows. If tho window gloss is done first, it Is almost impossible to wash tho paint round it without smearing the glass.

Never wash windows on a damp day, although a cloudy 0110 is not objectionable for the work. A bright, clear, sunny day is the best, choosing that part of it when the windows are in tho shade. Windows washed while the sun is on them ar» sure to be streaky, no matter haw well they may be done, for the son driM them quicker than they can be wiped, and, consequently, the water dries just as it is put on by the wash cloth.

Always that the windows thoroughly, bo*h inside and outside, before beginning to wash them. Use smalL dry paint brushes to fa* into crevtoes and corners when dusting. Wash the Insido of the window first, and it will be much easier to detect any defect when doing the outside. Take a* much clear watar as desired, bat have it sa warm at it cm be conveniently t»od, without parboiling the hands, and add to it enough hot household ammonia to soften it. Wi a soft doth that j» free from lint wash pane of glass thorot%fhly, using a small pointed stick with a doth on it to go into tb«c\*re»aE* I'seold «*TTr*t to wipe with, and dryeach pane bnew

Cleaning windows with a «fcxfe

wet in kerosene is recommended by some for the same purpose. In the general boose cleaning it is a good pi«»« to the outside shutters ere beginning the windows. Have a small, dry paint brush, and with it brash the blinds thoroughly fa«iH« nrf out then take another brush of the same sise, and, dipping it into clear water, go over the blinds with it, rinsing it frequently. When done change tbe water «M rinse the blinds well with tbe clear water. Although tids will occasion a little extra work, the appearance of the blinds will well repay any labor spent on them.—New York Mail and Expresa

In Woman's Defense.

Tbe replies in The North American Review to the query, "Is woman tbe more to blame for unhappiness in marriage?" are inadequate. When a man and woman are equally mated as regards intelligence, why is it that tho woman is compelled to wj? tact, diplomacy, in order to manage the man? Why should not tbe man make some effort to render their life harmonious? A woman's position in the marital state is a far more difficult one than the man's. From the time they are 1? years old tbe majority of men begin their experience in money matters on the other hand, young girls who have indulgent parents learn nothing in regard to finance, and have almost as vague an idea of dollars and cents as though they grew on trees. Then a man of 25, after eight years' experience in business, takes a girl of 21 who is utterly ignorant of it, and presto! she is supposed to bloom into an expert manager. It is never pleasant to ask a man for money, and when it is given reluctantly it becomes inexpressibly galling to a girl of spirit. When be wants anything he simply buys it, and, of course, there is no one to say a word.

A girl's position is no sinecure. If she is intelligent, it seems almost beneath her to descend to managing a man, and yet the authorities agree that this is the only way in which her pathway in life can be made smooth. That idea in itself is sufficient, as ono con plainly see, to fill a woman's breast with tho most profound awe and admiration for these lords of creation.

The husband tires of carcases and his wife's expressed devotion. A man is always happier in the pursuit of an object than when in full possession consequently, to make marriage ..a .success, tho wife, should be sufficiently indifferent, in order to give the busband the incentive of still having something to gain. Marriage will also be a Success when the wife has no opinion but her husband's, is submissive, meek, humble in short, a noneritity.—A Subscriber in Chicago Tribune.

Hints to Housekeepers.

Dip fish into boiling water and the scales will come off easier. To prevent the smell of paint put a handful of bay in a bucket of water, and let it stand in the room over night.

Study to mako the warmed over dishes decidedly more than ordinary hashes. Clothespins boiled a few minutes and quickly dried, onco or twice a month, become more durable.

A little saltpeter or carbonate of soda mixed with water in which flowers are placed will keep them fresh for two weeks.

Egg shells crushed into small bits, and shaken well in decanters three parts filled with cold water, will not only clean them thoroughly, but will make tho glass look like new.

In severe paroxysms in coughing, either in coughs, colds or consumption, one or two tablespoonfuls of pure glycerine in pure whisky or hot, rich cream will afford almost Immediate relief.

Raw potatoes which ore to be fried should be thinly sliced and soaked in cold water. Any method which will keep the air from the inside of the shell will preserve eggs for a certain length of time.

If fruit stains are washed in tepid water they will generally come out. It's the putting them In suds that sets the color.

One can save all the bread scraps by drying them in the stove, then with the rolling pin they can bo crashed for puddings, tomatoes and soups.

To take out spots from wash goods, rub them with yolk of egg before washing. To drive away ants, scrub the shelves of drawers that they frequent with strong carbolic soap, then sprinkle with red pepper in every crevice.

The

Rationale

Bread Making.

Tho action of tbe heat in baking causes certain changes to take placo in the starch, by which it is rendered soluble, and to somo extent converted into another substanco resembling gum, and known as dextrine. The outside of tho loaf is altered to a greater extent, forming the crust These changes havo tho effect of rendering the bread nutritious and palatable but to prevent its becoming a heavy, solid mass of dried dough it mutf be "raised," or inflated with gas, so as to convert it into light, spongy substance which can be easily masticated and digested. The gas used for this purpose is always carbonic dlpytria, and the best method to develop it In the of dough is to set up a vinous or alcohol fermentation by the addition of yeast. This substanco is a most remarkable living organism, which, when introduced into the doagh, begins to feed upon tho starch, whisJi l( changes into alcohol and carbonic acid gas.

Owing to the tenacious natoreof the dough, the gas cannot escape, baft as it expands, renders it spongy and light. The beat of the baking oven still further expands the gas, and completes the process, at the same time trilling the yeast, and preventing further fermentation. If the fermentation continues too long, it passes over into the acetic variety, the alcohol is changed to vinegar, and the bread "sours." Tbe atoohol produced in the prooess is nearly all dissipated in the baking but it is an appreciable quantity, and some years ago a company was fanned in toglanrl to introduce appliances for condensing and saving It. The method was found impracticably but it created considerable excitement, and ono baker advertised to sell his bread "with all the gin In it."—American Miller.

Have you ever taken particular notice of tbe tact that a nicely dressed lady, especially aa to headgear and neckwear, always seeks a seat In a street car up in

oorasrst Well, tho almost invariably does. Maybe you will wonder why, and it Is only right and proper that you should be informed on the subject. It is a self evident truth that a lady loves to look at herself la a mirror, especially if she is well dressed. It Is aa even chance that the front platform of a mt car Is occupied by two or more bumiti, who always lean back against the front windows. This obstructs a view of the street, bat the dark background of the smokortcoat render* tbe w*~iow mirror like, so that a person in cm seat can see his or ber reflection in tbe glass.

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MATT*

large afc*"* A very handsome set of salad bowl and plates was of a delicate rose color, with the dull mat finish whioh imparts to tills color a peculiarly melting effect, and decorated with a spray of wild roses in gold which were dropped gracefully upon the beautiful surface. Of almost equal beauty were the similar sets in English red and faint eea green.

A novelty adopted from an English custom is tbe bread art, which consists of two medium sized square plates and twelve individual plates, which are just large enough to receive a small slice of bread. These are placed fen- each person and are designed to protect the costly silk, plush and embroidered table covers which are now so generally used for handsome dinners. The set is very H«Jnty, and useful as well, for who has not felt the need of some resting place for the commonplaoe slice of bread which is crowded off from the general plate and has an untidy appearance on tbe fresh linen, or, it may be, a more elegant cloth!—Good Housekeeping. "A 1

Tbe Golden Age...

Another universal question for our tortured minds is, "Will the educated woman marry Doubtless the educated woman will marry if she is asked, and if her education is of the right kind she will make an estimable wife, mother and housekeeper. The educated woman will make ber own social position, so that she will not feel it necessary to marry in order to secure* such recognition. She will Ulao, undoubtedly, make an income, so that she will not be forced to marry for a support ami possibly she will acquire fame, so that die will not have the desire to change an insignificant for a famous one. And when women no longer feel it necessary to marry for social position, nor for money, nor for fame, for what will they marry? For the sake of escaping an old maid's fate? Well, no the educated woman should be above that. She mil marry for the one thing worth marrying for, and that is love. It will be a golden age. Who, then, will have any cause to ask, "Is marriage a failure f' But when will that day come? Let us hasten to educate the young girls, and so hasten the coming of the day thai-, ahail bring light out of darkness, love out of hate and joy out of unhappiness. —Miss Palfrey in New York Star.

Bonnets and Fins.

The coming bonnet is a subject of feminine interest, but the staying one appeals much more to mankind. If there is any thing under heaven a loathes worse than getting up early in the morning, or going to bed early at night, it is to be walking with a woman who is never quite certain as to whether her bonnet intends to remain on her head or to talffl wings unto itsalf and settle in an ash barreLThe chances are she objects to pins in the first place, and tbe other chances are that if she approves pf bonnet pins she doesn't know how to place them. You cannot wear your hair low and pin your bonnet to it without that bonnet rising in rocking horse fashion «ii[] giving you a distracted appearance, and you need not rely on strings to keep your bonnet on your head. If you wear your hair low you have got to have a small pad of false hair, whicc you lay right on top of your head, fasten down securely, hnd whon your bonnet is put on, stick your pins through it then, and tiien only, arc you safe, and then and then only is the man of your heart certain that your bonnet is tho prettiest he has ever seen, because, as he emphatically puts it, "it stays on."—Philadelphia Times. 4

How to Treat Babies.

Do not try to make the baby "notice." Do not try to make him "forward." Do not try to push him ahead of your neighbor's baby. "But," you ask, "shall we let tho baby grow up dull and stupid?" By no means simply let him grow up naturally. "Blessed is the mother," said a lady thoroughly experienced in domestic affaire— "bleated is the mother whoee baby is a 'lunkhead.' Stupid babies make wise men and women. A baby is little more than a plant Let him vegetate in his infancy, and be content to wait for his intellect's development until a later date.

Give babies a chance to rest while they are They will probably never get a chance afterward.

Baby, sleep a little longer,

Till the little limbs are stronger, If she sleeps a little longer, Baby, too, shaQ fly awav. —New England Farmer.

i-i Women In Colleges.

Many of us can remember when women had not a college of their own, and only Oberlin opened her doors to equal and coeducation. And that opening raised a temjestuoua opposition and war of indignation. Sow, says Kate Stevens, women have more than two hundred colleges where they can matriculate and carry off honors an4 there are' four thousand women in attendance. Among these institutions are several stato universities besides Cornell and Howard and Columbia and a half dozen owned and occupied by tho women alono. Meanwhile, women as teacberf are receiving, In place of a mire pittance, a sum almost equivalent to that paid to men.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Ways to Cora a Cold.

1. Bathe tbe feet in hot water and drink a pint of hot lemonade. Then sponge with salt water and remain in a warm room. 8. Bathe tibefbo* in very hot water every five minutes for an hour. 8. Snuff up tbe nostril hot salt water every three boors. 4. Inhale

5. Take four hours' active exercise In the open air.—Medical News.

According to a New York writer it is the proper thtng for young ladles giving fashionable luncheons to serve egg nog or some similar beverage in tbe skin ot an orange. Tbe palp and juice are scooped oat through an opening made in the top of the fruit, the wrftil drink Is poored inland the opening dosed by the replacing of the piece at ikin cot out Thsn it Is tied with a ribbon. Tbe beverage Is drunk by means of two straws, which, tied together with a bit of ribbon, go with each orange.

House Waiste of Silk and Wool to Wear with Various Skirts A Dressy Apron of Silk and Laee Describe* and Illustrated.

House waists to wear with various skirts of lifferent material give variety to a lady's toilet, and may be worn at any hour of the day. Sometimes these bodices are of silk or wool sometimes they are made in figured oiks, quaint, small patterned brocades, or alse in India silks. Pongee silks are useful for belted waists for the house or for traveling, with the tucks of the yoke and sleeves feather stitched in colors. White veiling and the silk striped flannels are prettily made up with blouse fronts and fitted tucked back, worn with a ribbon belt knotted in front over fche nil blouse^

',• A UNIQUE BODICJB.Pf In the annexed cut is shown an apple green Amazon cloth bodice, quaintly adorned with aisingle diagonal revers, which is tamboured with silver thread and finished off with a deep tapering fringe in steel and opalescent beads. The left side is iD lace or embroidered muslin, gathered up round the throat to form a high ruffle, and a frilling along tbe left ihgylder: short semi-sleeves to match. J^The changeable silks and surahs make pretty belted waists with full sleeves, shirred or tucked fronts and backs, and sometimes with a plain yoke to which the fullness of the bodice attached with a narrow upright ruffle and slight shirring.

Novelties in Hosiery.

In old days a blue stocking was held in such detestation that those who were supposed to wear one gave the name to a coterie of women with minds stronger than the rest. Now blue stockings—indeed, hose of every hue— threaten to be very much the fashion, and hlftfJr1 which people have been content to wear with almost every drees, are to be set aside. Some exceedingly pretty kinds are being introduced. One of tho newest has stripes from toe to top, both ribbed and open. Another novelty is the introduction of open work at the side only, and some with a set pattern, which covers the front of the foot and tapers towards a point, are marvels of fine embroidery and fine weaving, for the two go together. Thread stockings have been brought to such perfection that they can hardly be told from silk, and have the advantage of wearing better. Some are both printed and open worked, the combination having a most excellent effect.

Materials Used in Millinery.

The materials used in millinery show much beautiful silk colored embroidery on lisse, a great deal of gauze of many kinds, and some in quite new designs of creping an inexpensive cotton

is new and makes a great

show. Gauze ribbons arid insertions are much employed, and a gold stockingnet, which is used veiled with lace. Crepe de Chine is sold in all colors, and anew make of silk, of curious weaving, called grain de poudre, quite different to armure royale, has been introduced. ftM

The leading colors in all these are green, especially reseda and vieux rose. Lace is used in great

Quantities,

especially when in-

terthreaded with narrow ribbons and wire, and then

la often Introduced beneath the

brims of hate.

Bow to Display Choice Owns

Elsie Bee telle, In Jewelers' Circular, that a fashion lately introduced for the better dieplay of very choice gems, and thought by many to be "something new under the sun," is, in point of fact, a modification of an old style indulged in by English dames many, many years ago. The fashion is for an owner of fine gems to match her own fair or dark tresses, as the case chances to be, with bands of hair, to which single stonss, set In gold or silver, are securely attached. These gem laden bands are threaded in with the coiffure and produce a decidedly novel effect. The old fashion alluded to was that of fine hair nets studded with gems and put on over the natural coiffure.

ALL AROUND THE HOUSE.

8ome Dainty and Choice Things in Table Ware Provided for This Season.

Delicate china and fine glassware possess a perennial charm for the housewife, and they are now so inexpensively made that even quite modest tables may afford their pretty show to set forth tbe plainest fare in tempting fashion.

Tbe old style of complete dinner or tea sets of many pieces exactly alike in decoration having given place to course sets entirely dissimilar in design and ornamentation, there results a pleasing succession of beautiful pieces of china during the progress of a meal. There is such great variety in the assortments of dealers that every taste may please itself, and anything that has the intrinsic merit of beauty may be considered in fashion. Some distinctive features, however, are noticeable in this season's goods, among which Good Housekeeping mentions the following:

The newest colors, as seen in samples of pieces for exhibition at tho Paris exposition, are shaded rose, English red, a rather warm tone, blue and green, each varying in tint in a single piece, from the lightest hue to the deepest, richest shades a cool, lobster green, the exact shade of the'uncooked lobster 0 deep, rich royal blue, called bleu de fpur, or "furnace blue," very expensive and therefore very much sought and lastly, tho delicate sream, rose and light greens, with unglazcd mat finish, of rare beauty, and most likely to be chosen by art lovers. V8

The decorations of nearly all, except tho mat finish colors, aro in metal, and tho designs very generally unconventional.

Dainty oyster plates for ladies' luncheon parties are in rose color, with four shells, instead of five. Oyster soup sets, it may be said, in passing, have a small, rather deep saucer shaped plate instead of the broad dish or deep bowl so long in use.

For salads and entrees there are odd, graceful designs' In china of tho finest finish, the wide, straight sides being seen in all the large dishes. A very handsome set of salad bowl and plates was of a delicate rose color, with the dull mat finish which imparts to this color a peculiarly molting effect, and decorated with a spray of wild roses in gold which were dropped gracefully upon tho beautiful surface. Of almost equal beauty were the similar sets in English red and famt sea green.

The newest breakfast coffee cups are ribbed, with straight sides, rather taller than formerly, but on the whole considerably smaller, and have small saucers, to accommodate the numerous other dishes in the matter of space. These same cups are used for tea as well, the low, shallow teacup finding lees favor this season, and the after dinner coffees are similar in all respects, but of more elegant designs and altogether moro fascinating In appearance than ever before. Chocolate pots are both round and squoro and increasing in height. The taller ones are quite Trenchy, and tho Parisienno likes to havo along stick in the center of the pot with which to stir the fragraut beverage.

Duster

Baits.

Bags or boskets for holding a dainty, soft duster are popular where a ladv frequently dusts her own particular bits of china or very delicate knickknacka A greet many arc made with a pretty, fancy silk handkerchief, lined with muslin to stiffen it. Take the handkerchief, with a point downwards, clasp it near tho lower corner and also the upper, allow the upper one to fall over, as a pointed flap, join up the edgeA of tbe handkerchief below it and up the center to form the bag. Tie a bow where the upper and lower corners are grasped, and the whole thing is done. The upper bow has a loop at the back of It to hftttg the bag to the nail in the waQ. Sometimes a wall basket is used, with a square piece of brocado plush or a fancy silk handkerchief arranged over it, as described above. The duster is kept in tho basket, and the flap conceals it.

A Screen for Summer Use.'

The light and airy looking screen shown in the cut is one particularly attractive and serviceable for summer cottage use. Tho frame is of bamboo, but a home made article might be gotten up in much the same Japanese style and made to look well.

SCRBBN IX JAPAincSB 8TYLK. The upper parts of the frame are draped with Japanese silk. The pocket Is a figured silk of the

same

soft textunt and has for a

background deep gold colored velvet. The palm leaf fan ia painted In dead gold and the partially closed fan is painted in Watteau style. Tbe cords that ornament the sides, top and bottom are gold and crimson.

A Delicious Coi! Dewert.

Strawberries, raspberries or blackberries may be used for tbe following tempting dish. Soak half a package of gelatine for two hours in a half cupful of water. Mash a quart of strawberries and add half a cupful of sugar to them. Boll half a cupful of sugar gently with a cupful of water for twenty minutes. Rub the berries through a sieve. Add the gelatine to tbe boiling sirup and take front tbe fire immediately, then add tbe berries. Set the whole in a pan of Ice water and beat five minutes. Add tbe whites of four eggs and beat till tbe mixture begins to thicken. Put into molds and set away to harden. Serve with cream and sugar. r'

"It is a fact that many of the besft.

Ele

roprietary medicides of the day," said late Dr. J. G. Holland in Soribner's Magazine, "are more successful than many physicians, and most of them were first discovered or used in actual medical practice. When, however, any shrewd person, knowing their virtue and foreseeing their popularity, secures and advertises them, in the opinion of the bigoted, all virtue weut out of them." Failure of eyesight, fickle appetite, headache, extreme wakefulness, frequent desire to urinate, especially at nignt, gradual failure of strength and dropsical swelling—these are symptoms of kidney, disease. If you neglect the symptoms' you will eventually have Bright's Disease. The late Dr. Dlo Lewis, over his own signature, said "If I find myself the victim of a serious kidney trouble, I would use Warner's Safe Cure."
