WOMEN IS-THE STUDIO.

Specimen Scene*. "They're nil cranks, men and women, wh« they .come in here," remarked a State street photographer, who seemed to be in a pessimistic mood. "Don't you find ladies more troublesome to pose than men inquired his visitor, to give ,him a lead. "No, they're all alike about posing the man who has a flue profile and a hideous mug -and insist# on being taken full face or perish is much oc* a line with the 240 pound woman who believe# she shouM bo posed in the attitude of prayer with her eyes cast up to heaven." "I always thought that ladies gave more trouble than men in a general way." "So they do," replied Mr. Stevens rath«r Inconsequentially, *'and society ladies are the /worst of all. I would rather take ten shop girls than one lady of the average lind who

Come in Iktc. «ni m?y than either. Not but. what men era aggravating enough when 'hey nriimt tlu: higii horn*." "In wli/it ivspcct do society ladies give more iroubl.- than shop girlsf "Why, the fir*t thing we cxiect when a well dre»ed lady enters is that we are going to have trouble nlout the pay. With rings ind jewelry upon her worth fortune, she /'will object to pay for her photographs in advance, and nine times out of ten will try to compromise on ?1 down and the rest on delivery. Now, our rule is the price of the picture* in advance, or no sitting otherwise,

If she docs not like the proofs, she won't take the photographs, and we aro out our time and trouble, which the dollar does not begin to pay for. Now, a servant girl or clerk invariably hasher money ready ami exacts to pay it down usually prefers to, in fact, so wo have no trouble from that source. As rogards other matters thera is no comparison. A jwor girl seldom nsl for more than one sitting, is pleased with her picture every time —usually had no idea that she was half so handsome—and it is a pretty sight to see the young servant girls or clerks como in with their beaux, and after smirking at tho picture a little hand it to their company also to hear the dainty flattery poured into thoir ears while we are wrapping up." "I suppose you don't fbid society women so pleasant to doal with*" "No. Of course there are exceptions, hundreds of them. We hove ladies as sweet and gentle and courteous in here as you will find in Chicago. But thora are so many who want the earth, sot with diamonds, buttered on both sides and turned over. 'It's tho expression,' thoy say, 'you've got such an ugly expression on me.' As if we could make expressions to ordor. Fivo times out of six it's not the expression at all but pin them down to it and you And it is tho sot of their collar or dress that displeases them. Now, hero's a lady—selecting from a bundle of proofs—a South Side woman who owns property on tho boulovards and lives on one of them. She pauie in with them today and complained that sho didn't like them a bit. Sho has gono homo now to change her dress for another sitting (if a-woman sits all day she'll change her dress between each time) but when she first came in hore is the conversation we had: 'What is it you don't like, madarnF 'Oh, it's just horrid! I don't like it at all. husbapd won't have it he thinka4t ishorrlmo.' 'Well, what is it that is "horrible" about It! I should have called it an excellent likeness.' "4 Why, the expression—everything.' "'Wo are not accountable for tho expression it was the one you had on at tho titno.' 'Not at all, I nover had such an expression, and thnt horrid white tie, too. Why, it looks all necktie.' 'I beliove you arranged tho tie yourself, madam.' •"Well, it is horrid, auyway. Can't I sit again "Certainly. We allow one more sitting free.' "So she has gone home. Probably sho won't like tho next proof any better. Now hero is a letter wo got this morning from tho principal of a high school. Read it yourself. I assure you it is nothing uncommon in our biiKlness." "Gentlemen The inckwed proofs are quite satisfactory. I prefer tho one I have marked. Please send me two dozen copies of tho same at your earliest convenience. I should like a dozen as per proof, but in the other dozen please leavo the cloak unbuttoned so as to show my dress. "Respectfully, Mhs. Jkankttk "On the whole, theu, you think women are worse cranks than meat" "Well, men are pretty tough, too—all cranks, every one of them. But preserve mo from women—in a photograph gallery at all events. Men are tolerably hard customers (sometimes, lut a woman can get uglier in five minute* and say meaner things than the worst mau that ever breathed." *"The most charming people to take are public characters," said a photographer who makes a specialty of feminine portraits. "Yes, I like professionals," he continued, motioning a lady, a pug dog' and two children to the desk, who wore wandering around in vague and uncertain orbits, of which he was evidently the focus. "They aro unquestionably- the best people to make good pictures on account of the freedom of their manner and geueral pleasantness of their demeanor. There is no restraint about them, and you have a better chance to secure the natural expression of their features. I have ©specially found this to be the case with the celebrated llistori, who is most gracious and affable, and who even takes the trouble to send a letter of thanks when her pictures please her. A1 torn is a very charming lady, so far as I have seen her in ray studio. PerImps nobody 4s mom natural and modest or shows less affectation in posing than this gifted singer. Among musicians the pleas* an test I know Is Mme. Teresa Carreno, wife of the baritone Tngliapietra. This lady is a wonderful linguist. She speaks English like a native Spanish, of course, being a Venezuelan. while Italians and Frenchmen take her for one of their own countrywomen. Yet I can get a first class negative of her, pose, expression and all. correct in tea minutes, while an unknown lady from the boulevards is explaining to my assistant that she will not be taken in profile," "1 suppose you do not find nil professiou&l ladies so pleasant to get along with," "No. iudeed I Many of thw» are cranks from the ground up.

THE OPEN DOOR.

Beating bis breast on the cold window pane. Poor little bird. Striving tho free, blessed air to regain,

Yet ever deterred

Something invisible, pitiless, bright, Walling him in, Beyond it lies liberty, sunshine, light*.

This In between.

Tiny, passionate, terrified thing, Struggling in vain, Pulsating heart and quivering wing,

Throbbing with pain

Star too bewildered to notice the door Spread open wide, Only to turn. and gain freedom once roore,^

Naught to divide.

So we beat ever 'gainst destiny's pane, Fear stricken bird. Yearning for happiness, striving in vaia.

Hope e'er deferred.

Doorways to peacefulness, liberty, life, Woo our advance. When in the midst of our toiling and strife,

God has a chance.

HOW GIRLS LUNCH.

wimt it Coat Three Young Ladies oa Shopping Expedition. Recently there were three ladies, evidently sisters or closely related, and all stylishly dressed, who took their seats at r. little table and proceeded to order lunch. They had chosen oue of the most popular ladies' lunch rooms in the city, where prices are moderate an«l every article well cooked and liberally served. Their lovely silks settled down with a swish, and their numerous parcels were disposed on a chair. Their long, soft gloves were laid aside, and their diamonds twinkled over the bill of fare. "Wbat'll you take,

3L.il?"

looking

asked the queenly

elder girL

The superb creature wrinkled her nose, pulled at a wisp of her auburn bang and said "I don't know what are you going to have?" "I don't know. Le'mo see. Why not have chicken pie? It's lovely here." "But, my 1 it is twenty cents,''whispered the little dumpling in a red togue, "and with coffee and rolls. No why not take beef stew? That is only five, or fish balls at five." "Ughl Fish balls are horrible," said the third young lady with her finger on "strawberries and cream for twenty cents." "Well, then, here's soup at ten cents."

Nobody liked soup it was so thin that one "needed rolls anil coffee too." This sort of debate went on for fully ten Minutes, while tho patient waiter stood ready for the order.

Suddenly a bright thought seemed to animate the Juno like "Lil,"and sho said: "Why not everybody order as thoy like, and then we can divide."

Inspired by this unique mode of release, each wrote her ordor triumphantly, and in a few minutes it was filled and the ladies wore doubly discussing it. "This is tho nicest lunch room in Washington," said one. "Yes, it is so neat, and everything is beautifully cooked." "Aren't these oysters delicious?" "Why on earth, Sallio, did you order coffee? This chocolate bents even mamma's." "Chocolato don't agreo with me, but ginger bread does," and tho fuir Sallio of tho red piece of togue took just such a piece out of that spongy brown broad as a school boy doosoutor an apple that is Ioaued him to take a bite. "Havo a "taste of my salad,v said a dyspeptic looking girl who wore a rich heliotrope suit that was not as becoming as it was expensive.

Tho girls chattered their praises of the food, the lunch disappeared, and then they proceeded to figure up tho cost. "Good gracious, ninety-five cental" "You don't mean it? why, isn't that expensive for such a little lunch?" "Well, it was nice, but one can't como here every day if it costs liko this." "Well," said the ono who happened to be banker, the statuesque beauty, "I suppose it must be poid," and she opened purse fat with bills, while ono of the others gathered the parcels and a third consulted a diamond studded watch. The bill was paid, and those elegantly dressed ladies hurried out to their shopping. Tho Critic reporter, familiar with this lunch room, took occasion to filch the check from the cashier's desk, and the extravagantly praised lunch for threo which these evidently wealthy young women declared too expensive is appended for the benefit of the public: One potato salad 10c Two cups of chocolate 80c Rolls for three One-half dozen fried oysters.... 80c Two ginger bread 10c One pumpkin pie 3c One coffee 6c

Which total of ninety-five cents led the critical philosopher to affirm Nothing emphasizes tho inherent differences of men and women more than their respective orders at a restaurant.

A man likes to eat. He considers food more essential than clothing. He orders liberally and pays cheerf ully.

Women care loss for food, and consider money wasted that is spent at luuch counters and restaurants

Women who live alone never set as good a table as when there aro men in tho family. The average woman will pay $10 or $20 for a bonnet and demur at a lunch costing thirtyone and three-fifth cents.

Mrs, Gammage was right. "Women are queer critters."—Washington Critic.

A Woman Did It.

In a lecture on "Genius in Women," delivered at Mouteagle, Tenn., Mr. Maurice Thompson said: "There is not an intelligent soul in the south who does not feel the singular power of womanly sentiment and imagination in 'Uncle Tom's Cabin,' no matter what may be the prejudice against the book. I say to you that no man could have written that romance. It was the appeal of womap to man, and what an appeal The book was not true to southern life it was a romance out of the whole cloth. It showed that Mrs. Stowe did not know southern society, black or white, but it embodied a woman's articulate cry for the freedom of a race, and it statkd tho world with its accent, its volume and its distinct womanly quality."—America.

A BiUlard Gown.

The most picturesque gown I have seen is worn by a beautiful brown haired woman. The skirt is & foil one of old rose serge, the straight lines unbroken, and yet the fullness does not seem to hide the rounded curve® of her figure as she learn far over the table and calculates just how far a certain shot will •end a certain ball The jacket is of the serge, fitting In closely at the back and having loose fronts that flare away and show a waistcoat of plaited heliotrope. The sleeves are puffs of the serge and only reach to the »lbow, the bare arms showing from there. STo jewelry Is worn except a brooch, and to W in harmony the hair is always arranged with grmt simplicity.—Philadelphia Times.

And Sire CwwllT ttaa To. Old Mr. Grump—How do yan propose to support, a family, when yon can hardly on yoor salary as it isf

Algr—Ob, I suppose my wife will have to ttteod to that.—Texas Sittings.

It is reported that over 1,500 letters were mailed from Vassar college in one day. At her marriage in Paris the daughter of it Eiffel received from her father as a dowry $100,000 in cash and an equal sum in the stock of the Eiffel Tower company.

TWigg Clara McKnight has been admitted to practice law at the bar of Ire®ton, O. She is only 18 years old, and is a petite brunette, with wavy, hair and a pair of sparkling eyes.

An after dinner coffee set for a wealthy gentleman in Charleston had little square cups and saucers with margins in yellow and gold berries scattered over the white grounds.

The Women's Typewriters' unioh, lately formed in London, has but one essential rule —not to accept a less rate of payment than that of the already existing typewriters' society of men. This is only a penny and a half (three cents) per hundred words.

One of the indispensables when traveling is the sponge bag, as a wet sponge is an inconvenient thing to pack without one. A pretty bag is made of butcher's linen embroidered in raw silk or linen floss, gathered cn draw strings of white braid and lined with rubber sheeting or oiled silk.

Mrs. C. P. Huntington, wife caf the many times millionaire and railroad k*ng, is said to constantly wear the yellow "good luck" garter, her's being fastened by means of a beautiful buckle set with a fine topaz encircled* with diamonds.

An inventory of the wardrobe of Queen Elizabeth, made in the year 1600, recently published, shows that the queen then had 99 robes, 126 kirtles, 2#9 gowns, 136 "foreparts," 125 petticoats, 27 fans, 96 cloaks, 83 saveguards, 85 doublets and 18 lap mantles. The gowns appear all to have been of the richest materials.

The Talbots are the richest people in Wales. Miss Talbot, daughter of the late father of the English house of commons, is worth $15,000,000 in railway stocks, beside3 owning large estates. She is a fragile, sweet faced woman, very charitable in her habits.

Iowa is the banner state for women educators. Fourteen of the state superintendents are women and four-^fths of the teachers are women.

Talking at Table.

There is no eiid to the modes of conducting table talk as a means of child education and there is no end to the influence of table talk in this direction, however conducted. Indeed, it may be said with truth that table talk is (juite as likely tc be influential as a means of child training when tho parents have no thought of using it to this end, as when they seek to use it accordiugly. At every family table there is sure to be talking and tho talk that is heard at the family table is sure to havo its part in a child's training, whether the parents wish it to be so or not.

Table talk ought to be such in every family as to make the hour of home meal time one of the most attractive as well as one of ibo most beneficial hours of the day to all the children. But in order to make table talk valuable parents must havo something to talk about at tho table, must be willing to talk about it there and must have the children lovingly in mind as they do their table talking.—Sunday School Times. 7

A Gallant Chinaman.

A secretary of the Chinese embassy in Washington was introduced to a lady, who among other questions asked him: "What virtue do you most highly prize in your women "The virtue of domesticity," was the reply. "Then you do not. like your womeittpjuove lu society muchf" she questioned. "Not at all. Ouf law even recognizes cause for divorce when a woman—pardon rne, madam—is inquisitive and talkative." "Then I would be in danger of being divorced if I lived in China?" smilingly asked tho lady. "Tho very day that my country would have the luck to possess a womanly being like you," replied the gallant son.of the heavenly realm, "every cause for divorce would be removed from the world."—Prom the Gorman.

No Fear of Hoopskirts.

"Never fear," said a bright woman yesterday, "that hoopskirts will come in. They can't. They're nn impossibility under tho present social regime. Hoopskirts go with formalism, conventionality limp skirts are necessary with osstheticism and—occasional chairs. There are three things which act and react on one another—furniture, manners and clothes. Hoopskirts were all very well for a generation that bowed and conrtesied and set its sofas, tables and pianos primly hack against the walls. There was a fine, deal' space in the middle, where social evolutions could bo fitly and with dignity performed. Greek draperies are the only ones really compatible with the present method of arranging drawing rooms. No, hoopskirts in a horse car civilization are impracticable." —New York Mail and Express.

Dangerous Dryneas in Homes. Said a lovely hostess to her guest—laying by her needlework with a sigh: "I wonder why mv eyes smart and feci so rough of late!" When a lack of moisture in tho room was suggested as the cause she complacently pointed to the pretty brass receptacle of water on the stove as being a sufficient refutation of that idea. But no steam was ever visible therefrom, and its presence as a corrective was but a pleasing delusion. The little moisture evaporated was consumed by the arid heat of the baseburner without imparting the least humidity to the air of the room. The children's hands, which wero always carefully washed at the lavatory, and never exposed to the outside cold unmittenod, were always chafed, as were also their Hps, and vasaline was in constant demnd. New York Journal.

ItlinilneM at Birth.

It is distressing to learn that out of the 7,000 persons blind from their birth & this country, who owe their loss of sight to inflammation of the eyes, at least two-thirds might now have been in the enjoyment of their sight but for the ignorance or neglect of their earliest guardians. It seems that the remedies for the infantile inflammation which causes blindness are both many and simple. It cannot be too widely made known that the eyes of the newly born child, if inflamed, should be washed with pure warm water, and that then a single drop of a 2 per cent, sedation of nitrate of silver should lie instilled into each with a drop tube.—London Figaro.

Mrs. Tracy*# Charity.

Tl»e lad death of Mrs. Secretary Tfracy and the unselfishness of her last hour calls to mind an incident which came to my knowledge through a woman whom she aided. The woman to whom I refer was one of Mrs. Tracy1* humblest pensioners, and at thi* time she was greatly in need of careful nursing, for her disease was cancer and of a most painful character. Day after day Mrs. Tracy went on foot to the poor creature's borne, caured for her in enry way, swept and cleaned brar room and saw that sh« was comfortable, returning to her bona with some trifling excuse to atxRint for her absence.—Cor.

Tbe Veil us a Necessity.

A veil is a necessity to the woman who cares for appearance. In the first place, it keeps the dust and wind from the hair. Miss Hallo well, who spends six months of every year collecting art works from American and European studios for the Chicago exposition is never without a veil. "If I didn't wear one," she says, "I should waste all my time washing my face and combing my hair. As my time is very precious, I put my hat and veil on when I get up in the morning and keep them on until night." There are veils and veils, of tulle, crepe, plain and dotted net, gauze, braize, knitted silk, mull, and invisible tissue which oculists contend have been the ruin of American eyes, and are still productive of spectacled children. Be this as it may, the veil is as firmly fixed as the Stars and Stripes, and the consumption among women who go about a great deal averages fifty per year. The Hading veil was short lived, for the reason that phenomenal beauty, or pronounced paint, was necessary to peer through its gloom. The idea, however, suggested the wire veil, the novelty of the stock, which is nothing more than a semicircle of point d'esprit, gathered on a fine wire, by means of which it can be adjusted to any hat crown or bonnet frame. No pins aro iteeded. AJ1 one has to do is to pinch the wire and it stays were it is placed. —New York Star.

A Growing Practice.

It has become the usual thing for ladies who accompany their husbands, brothers or fathers on summer outing to carry their own guns and fishing tackle and join in all the outdoor sports of the party. The dealers in arms and ammunition say that this practice is growing quite rapidly and that as a general thing when a man comes in to buy a hunting outfit for himself he orders a similar one, only smaller and lighter, for his wife. But it is just as complete in all the little tricks and devices and essentials dear to the hunter's heart as his own. And they say that the average man who does this is very proud of the fact that it is for his wife or sister or daughter. Very often she goes with him and helps select tho outfit.

But the pride with which he buys it does not begin to compare with tho pride with which he drops into the store when he returns to the city, reminds them of the lady's outfit they sold him three months before and mentions tho fact that his wife bagged a score of -partridges,

brought down a deer, or

killed a brace of hawks on the wing.—New York Herald.

"Diseases, despbrate grown, by desperate appliances are relieved, or notatall." The point of isdom is to check tbem before they reach so far by buying a bottle of Salvation Oil. Price 25 cents. "Conspiracies no sooner should be formed than executed," and a cold should no sooner be taken than a bottle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup should be bought and used according to the directions.

A New Method of Treatisg Disease.

HOSPITAL REMEDIES.

Wnat are they? There is a new departure in the treatment of disease. It consists in the collection of the specifics used by noted specialists of Europe and America, and bringing them within the reach of all. For instance the treatment pursued by special physicians who treat indigestion, stomach and liver'troubles only, was obtained and prepared. Tbe treatmentof other physicians celebrated for curing catanli was procured, and so on till these incomparable cures now include disease of the lungs, kidneys, female weakness, rheumatism, and nervous debility.

This new method of ''one remedey for one disease" must appeal to the common sense of all sufferers, many of whom have experienced the ill effects, and thoroughly realize the absurdity of the claims of patent medicines which are guaranteed to cure every 111 out of a single bottle, and the use of which, as statistics prove, has ruined more stomachs than alcohol. A circular describing these new remedies is sent free on receipt of stamp to pay postage by Hospital Remedy Company, Toronto, Canada, sole proprietors.
