WOMAN AND HOME.

CLEARING THE DECKS FOR ACTION ON WOMAN'S WIDENING SEA.,^!

Men and Women—Hocuehold Bint*.

The rapid changes in social habitat indicate that women are destined to share more and more the work of men. It is now common to meet women io places where formerly they were never seen—in postoffioes, libraries, laboratories, observatories, counting rooms, editorial rooms, lawyers' offices, and so on indefinitely. In great buildings created expressly for men's work, which formerly were never trodden by the foot of any woman bat an occasional scrubber of floors, the opening of any door may now reveal a modest clerk or typewriter, and nobody stops to criticise the invasion. A change of habits so great necessarily involves otiier unconscious changes. The employer of women in all these cases is apt to become a little more decorous and orderly, to exercise more control of temper, more propriety of speech, than where he had men alone as companions or observers.

On the day when women were first to vote for school officers in Massachusetts I hap pened to meet one of the leading political managers in my own ward, who had never favored their voting. I expected to find him shaking his head over the innovation but he was, on the contrary, wholly absorbed in making the ward officers clean up tho voting place and put out a sign, "No smoking allowed here." Ho said, "The ladies are coming wo must make it decent for them." And soon after tho state passed a law forbidding smoking at the polls, to the great relief of the ward officers. Men cleared their decks, in a manner, before admitting women to share tholr undertakings, just as the order is given on naval vessels to clear the decks before going into action.

But it is not men alone who need to do this. Women have aright to demand that all should be done which is fitting in the woy of moral proprioty and reasonable courtesy when they eater the counting room or the workshop. On tho other hand, it is for them to remember that business is business, competition very great, and the demands of employers nro necessarily exacting. Men do not commonly employ a woman rather than a man for any particular work, because of chivalry or a sense of justice, though that may occasionally happen. They employ her a» being moro convenient, more economical, or in some way more useful. Having thus to competo as a woman, she must try as a woman to make herself as useful or available as possible, and to reduce to a minimum all inconveniences that stand in tho way. There is tho matter of dross, for instance.

Many men really like to have women about them as employes, were it only becauso they usually look neater and tidier than young men in tho same station. So for their mode of dress is an advantage. But when, on the other hand, the employer desires to post a letter at tho street corner, and knows that a male clerk would simply throw his baton and go there and back whilo tho young lady was adjusting her bonnet, bo is stricken with doubts as to the advantage of employing women. A young lady studying in a college town complained to me that sue bad to give more of hor daily timu to tho buttons on her gloves, in ordor to go to and from her recitations properly, than her brothef in colkgo gave to his whole wardrobe.

Far bo it from mo to recommend any daring cliauges in female costume, but the first study of any young woman who has her own living to make should at least be to dress in suuh away as to reduce all these discomforts to a minimum, that she may be, wherever it is possible, as alert, as free, as ready for action os if she wcro a man.

Anil iu tho same way a young woman who bos her own living to make need* t$ disemb&rrfUB Jwrsolf of all false pride, keeping alwfiys cloaeJy, oI course, to true self respect I remember an old fashioned employer who used to say that he would never employ A young woman until sho was as willing as a young man would bo to go through thostrects with a bundlo. Most women, no thought, would only do this at Christmas time, this being, in respoct to bundles, a sort of carnival season when all rules seem to be suspended.— Harper's Bazar.

Paper bogs, in which many articles are sent from the grocers, should bo saved for use when blacking a stove. You can slip the hand into one of these, and handle the brush just as well, and tho hands will not be soiled, and whon through with them they can be dropped into tho stove.

A very convenient way to poison rats and tnico is to mix arsenic with melted tallow and oooi it iuto a cake. Havo the tallow merely incited, not hot, when the arsenic is put in.

According to Miss Farloa, soda should always be dissolved in a cold liquid, preferably water, because dissolving it In hot water causes an effervescence, and the immediate liberation of the carbolic acid gas. Dissolving in cold water preserve* all of its "lightening" power.

Motheas of Good Stem.

When Lydia Newman's old Quaker and* saw that she had fastened her pretty little Newport ties with poppy red ribbons he frowned and told her it was not seemly. But Lydia laughed. "I don't care for them myself," she said, "but I want my little boy to remember that his mother wore red bows on ber shoes." Who does not remember the pretty thing* that "mother" wore! Har dainty lacw, the pale lilac dresses, the rose tacked under lace on her breast, seem half divine when they become bat memories to us. "Mother" is "mother," be she gentle or rough, but what a different ideal we have when we recall how proud we were when we brought friends home from school and rather surprised them with ber graceful, pretty ways.

Har hair was so soft, her eyes so tender. An tiiiirarf so well knew how to make a boy feel at homa. It was not necessary to make excuses for her and say she was so busy: The other boys themselves praised her, and we felt sorry for them because we knew they must feel bow much sweeter and prettier she was than their mothers could be. It is wise for a mother to take time to drees and bo fair in her children's eyes to read for their sake to learn to talk well and to live in today. The circle the mother draws around her is more wholesome for the child than the one he has to make for himself, and she is responsible for his social surroundings. It is not easy to be the child's most interesting companion, and to make home his strongest magnet, bat the mothers who have done this have been mothers of good men.—Chicago Herald. ....

Feeding the Babies.

"I believe in letting babies eat a little bit of everything. It hardens their stomachs Knd makes them accustomed to eating," said a young woman who prides herself on her common sense. "I let my baby eat banana and cake, and I havo tried it with my four children," sho continued.

Her children are all living, but the poor, pasty little faces, bowed legs, cross disposition and small size are due to their being allowed to eat a "little bit of everything."

A healthy baby up to a twelvemonth should live entirly on sweetened milk diluted with water. If it is to get any extra nourishment it should be a little bcaf juice mixed with warm water and salted, a little mutton broth with the grease entirely removod and a very liard crust of bread, or around chicken bone from which the meat is taken—the two latter to help harden its gums. If a child is delicate a physician should prescribe a diet.

No fruit, cake, meat, pastry and vegetables, with the exception of potatoes, should over be given a baby under 18 months old. They are poison to it. A single cherry or grape will often cause the death of a baby. A small roasted potato mixed with *a little butter and salt may be eaten once a day or once in two days by a child of 14 months or over—that is, if the child has any teeth.— New York Journal. „*, *, $

Tho Llttlo Myths of Childhood. There is a society somewhere I read about the other day for the suppression of nursery literature. I know several poo pie who think children should not bo taught what they call rubbish. They say it misleads them that they find out soma timo tho absurdity of those stories, and that it weakens their faith in their parents. I don't think that society will ever make any headway. I wonder if there is anybody who is not forever grateful to his mother for having told him those old myths and made him believe for awhile! What would a mother do if die could not take her child on her knee and aliig a nursery rhyme to it and tell a pretty story?

What is there in life, any way, when you take tho fanciful out of it? Eating, drinking, working, sleeping. Tell the child the truth and it will not be disappointed, they say. My friends, the truth is a pretty hard thing to tell to grown up people. The truth about lifo is not pleasant. Wo have to lio to make life bearable. The poetry of life is mainly a lie but it is the enjoyable element after all. Lio to children. Paint tho world as bright and happy as you can. Give them all the pleasant pictures of it you can. They will find its hard and practical character quite soon enough, long before they have been seriously misled by fanciful stories and myths invented by love and affection.—San Francisco Chronicle.

The Emergency Box.

"This is the most convenient box in the whole house," said a lady as sho took down the article mentioned. It was a small box, but one destined to be useful in many ways. "1 call it my emergency box," she continued, "and tho children are forbidden to touch it, excopt in an emergency.** It contained small rolls of lint, several strips of linen, laid loosely one above another so as to be readily picked up, four n» a all threaded, a small ball of knitting cou_u, some strips of court plaster and salve, for cuts and scratches a small box of soda for burns, and another of salt for mosquito bites a small vial of emetic "in case tho baby should swallow something poison," and another of arnica for bruises. "I always carry this with me when traveling," laid the owner, "and donH think I could get along without it. I find it so conjatT venient that i,ve *w*n tempted to m*ercrowd it by a ng bottom, hav ing, twine, pins, etc., and think strongly of fitting up I' fc .. to the toilet and the n-ii-iiaro iny*-.ux t._ the person.

The Care of Babies.

Carrying a child too much on one arm will make it misshaped. Babies ought to be held with thgr breasts against their mother's and an arm at their back, supporting the back of the bead by a hand carefully as it rests the tboaldar. They should lie on their stomachs a good deal, on a pillow or across the knees, for change of position and the ease given by warmth and pressure of the little abdomen. Babies' limbs are made symmetrical and vigorous by leisurely, tender stroking, and if they will get bow legged by Hanging on thair eager feet too soon, there is no need to torture them with suzgical'appliances steel boots.

The surgery for such cases is daily, hourly stroking the legs with both hands, and gently th«n» into straightneaB. Clever doctors discourage the use or appliances for straightening young children, preferring the gradual traction of the mother's hands, which will be found all efficient. You can do anything with a baby, except keep him still, when awake. And there is one rule which ought to be the Draconian code of nurseries, "Never wake a child for anything less than a fire or an attack."—Shirley Dare.

New York's Beauty Show.

The best place to view a parade of New York's beauty is at the oorner of Broadway and Fourteenth street, and the best time to see it is from 7 to 8 o'clock in the morning. Fifth avenue is cast into the shade by these bright faced, red cheeked, laughing, chattering girls, who make this locality brilliant with their charms every week day of the year. "Who are these beauties? They are salesgirls, sewing girls, dressmakers, milliners, bonnet trimmers and cashiers. The early male pedestrian is not the only appreciative spectator of this enticing parade.

The clerks who open the Broadway stores fill the doorways and windows the head bookkeeper turns as he enters the store and ves an admiring glance at someparticuly attractive damsel early risers at the hotels find in the passing show feasts for their bucolic vision the man who stands at the wine room door in quest of his matutinal cocktail finds time to Stop and admire, and even the haughty hotel clerk deigns to stroll over to the window and bestow a smile or two of lordly approbation upon some merry maiden who meets with his approval.—Now York Sun.

Women Ar® Not Humorists. Women as a rule are not fond of jokes they listen to clever stories with simulated amusement and forget them immediately. The reason for this lies in one of the essentials in the make up of woman—her profound and tender sympathy. Humor deals with the weakness of humanity it exposes foibles and

{aughing

junctures tender skin. Humor sets the world at some blunder of a man. It is woman nature to cover up, excuse and reform. Follies are too serious in her eyes to laugh at. If women were humorists they would not be the most earnest church workers, the most tender of nurses, and the most sentimental and refined portion of husMtaitv.

The same inherent quality which would auyke a truo woman, a real woman, shrink as judgo from pronouncing a death sentence, or as soldier from shooting an enemy through the heart, makes it impossible for her to become a humorist Wit a woman may have, wit she does possess, and is a formidable adversary with her stiletto points of irony and satire. But humorous in the common acceptation of the term, in the careless, rollicking, stinging art of current quips and jegts—fiover.—Washington Post

The Spanish Queen's Wig.

The august regent of Spain resorts to the wig maker for the preservation of her locks. She has a head of heir which is fine and silky, but rather thin, and as she feared that hot irons would make it prematurely gray sho inaugurated a practice now very common among continental women. When her maid has accumulated a goodly supply of her mistress* combings sho hands them over to a capillary artist, who has them sorted hair by hair, the roots being always placed together. A.M. Albert, whilom coiffeur to la grand duchess, is famous for this kind of work. He weaves all the hair, into a scalp, and, to give a permanent curly and wavy set, has the hair put in the curling and waving irons and placed for a week in a steam hoated oven. The heat of fire would not do so well and would darken the hue of fair or of gray or red hair. His object is to make the scalp match exactly with the live hair in texture and color. Before the steam oven device was hit upctn most of the hair used for artificial scalps was taken from the heads of infants, because that taken from adult heads would not carl and wave so welL—Chicago News.

WHAT SHALL WE WEAK!

NEW YORK, LONDON ANO PARIS .. FASHIONS IN DRESS.

Ioding KowIUm In thn Summer MtlHn«7—Boooeti and Hate to Salt All Styles of Faces—Blower*. Feathers and

Constitute the Favorite Garnftare*

Much of the new millinery is in exoepliodably good taste, and in the leading shops it is quite possible to find hats and bonnets adapted to individual faces. On many of these bonnetB flowers are apparently tossed carelessly on to the slightest of foundations, which are bent to suit the style of each wear-

A CHARMING TRIO,

sr. An artistically folded mignonette green corded ribbon, supported by a bouillonne kilt of crepe de Chine, forms the foundation of one bonnet, tho crown consisting of pink tinted wistaria, drooping towards the fooo. The whole of another bonnet is what might be described as an idealized box plait of moss green velvet, showing a lining of pale peach moire, spotted with white and edged with gold twisted in and out are garlands of gmnll green rosebuds and leaves, and on one side nestle two tiuy humming birds.

There never was a time when headgear was more spring and summer like than now, bocause hats and bonnets are both a mere resting place for flowers. Sometimes a close set wreath of roses or lilies of the valley rests on a pouf of lace, sometimes cowslips, as though they had just been gathered in the fields, nostle among velvet In our first out are shown three styles: The central figure represents a chip hat of pleasing shape, with trimmings of ribbon and feathers. The second figure is a lace bonnet with velvet bows and ties, and dependent on jet and oeprey for garniture. The remaining figure is a stylish lace hat with trimmings of flowers and ribbons.

In the socond cut is shown au elegant black lace bonnet, surmounted with a pretty cream colored fantasie and &r

t4fi*ette

of the same

shade. The brim is boi Mwd with a bouillonno of green velvet. Tulle bonnets will bo much worn by young girls thisseuson, with and without strings, and with either bows or flowers for trimmings. Now that strings to bonnets are rarely worn by the young, much attention is being given to bows for tho front of the neck. The most attractive are the Incroyablc, made of plaited lace or spotted net Tho plaits aits only pressed, not run, and a large bow is wiaHa of net with no ends, or else ends that come down to the bust Sometimes the same thing is made of soft silk or in really good laoe.

In hats, there are some with prominent brims in front, most skillfully veiled with a piece of lace, resembling an old fashioned fancy bordered veil (and, indeed, these are used for the purpose, if ladies possess and give them), carried to the back, where large bows of ribbon gather up the folds, bold back the brim, and tie a few flowers together. Loops of ribbon are brought out lower down close to the hair, to give the effect, of the ribbon having been passed through the black laxxb bokotbt. brim and then looped. This is noveL This shaped hat is carried out in coarse fancy straw for country wear, and also in tulle for bridesmaids, or young girls, with little sprays of lilac laid ckce together on the brim, and a dainty cluster placed on the Crown.

In cream crepe lisse, with a toft of cream ostrich feather tips instead of flowers, the effect is lovely. In black tulle, veiled with green, and with white and mauve lilac, these hats are most becoming. In artificial flowers, camellias, hitherto but sparingly used in millinery, are ooming into fashion, and are copied wonderfully after nature. Wing* are being also used in profusion.

^Fashion Motes.

Large, soft silk ties, tbe oolor of the gown, are being worn, In marking social events, such as weddings, engagements and birthdays, the "date" jewelry, to popular in medium priced goods abroad, is gaining some favor here.

ALL AROUND THE HOUSE.

8ome Ingentons and Catching Faneiec in V" Hoaa* Pwrnitlnn. A drapery both quaint and artistic, which may be used for doors, or on the upper parts of windows to cover stained glass, or as a lambrequin, is described by Decorator and Furnisher. It is made of seine, a HAing rod used in place of a cornice pole the edges of the seine is finished with a oord of heavy rope tackle and blocks are used for draping, the rope being fastened to a hook in the center of a coil of rope measuring 10 to 15 indies in diameter, which is fastened to the corner of the doorway or window. It should be arranged in folds across the top and then allowed to hang from one side.

The cattail oord is a new idea in applique work, noted by the same journal. It is in imitation of the popular summer shrub, so much in demand for decorations. When this is tacked to a pretty fabric for a background, it is a unique piece of adornment It may be used for mantle falls, lambrequins, cbair valances, etc.

Another novelty is an imitation of wooden fret work, consisting of a regular wooden frame inclosing interlaced silken cords, closely imitating the style and appearance of woodwork. This, while not so expensive as woodwork, is much more attractive and catching, as it admits of a great variety of coloring, and is something which the amateur with no great amount of skill may accomplish.

Reglet sticks, which the winters use to fill up spaces in making up BA' forms, make admirable lattice work.

These strips are smooth, thin strips of cherry and pine of various widths and thickness three feet long. They are pretty used each by itself or alternately, according to the space they fill. A little ingenuity in weaving them back and forth, in squares, diamonds, or a combination of both, a hammer and paper of long finishing nails being all that is needed. Transoms over doors and windows are filled In with lattice, as well as the side lights of a hall door, or the lower panols of a window where it is desired to have the light and yet to be screened from observation. Corner cupboards and doors to old book cases present good opportunities for this work. tv

Cutting: Glass with Scissors. ,, To know how to cut glass with scissors iMy prove convenient at times, and tho following from Pottery Gazette tells- how it may be done: The glass must be kept quite level in the water while the scissors aro applied and, to avoid risk, it is better to porform the cutting by taking off small pieces at the corners and along the edges, and to reduco the shape gradually to that required. The softer glasses cut the best, and tic. scissors need not be very sharp.

A Decorative Hand Screen.

Gild the handle, the oak sprays, etc., of tho palm leaf fan then cut the silk square in half and join it up the middle, so that it forms an oblong strip round off the two top cornors and sow it to the palm leaf, putting the seam to tho middlo of the leaf, and keeping the silk plain all around the edge gather it full at the top of the handle, and arrange the two bottom corners into a pretty knot or bow, from under which start your largest spray of oak leaves, as shown in the cut

Sew those decorations firmly on with gold colored silk, and use gluo only for the points of the leaves. This screen is quickly made, and the cost of materials is but a trifle. It is decorative, aod being light is pleasant to use,

Smelt* Fried In French Style. Smelts are fried in French style as follows: Carefully wipe two pounds of cleaned smelts with a dry cloth dip them in milk, then roll in finely powdered cracker crumbs, next in an egg beaten with a saltspoonful of salt and a quarter of a saltspoonful of pepper, aud then again in cracker crumbs fry them in enough smoking hot fat to cover them, until they are golden brown. Take them from the fat with a skimmer, lay them oh a napkin or a pioco of paper to absorb all fat, and serve them laid in rows with a few quarters of lemon on the side of the dish,

Rhubarb and Ginger Preserve. Rhubarb and ginger preserve may be new to some of the housekeeper*. Here is the recipe: Skin and cut up a sufficient quantity of rhubarb, not too young. Weigh it, and to every pound of rhubarb allow three-quar-ters of a pound of sugar. Put together and let stand over night Next day put it in the preserving kettle, adding some sliced ginger root. Boil one hour. This makes an excellent preserve, the ginger giving just the flavor required to rhubarb, which is apt to be rather insipid alone.
