WOMAN AND HOME

THE HARD WORK THAT FALLS TO THE FRENCH WOMAN'S LOT.

"Worth 171x110—Improving Oar Talent*. Woman's Place In the Family—Well Known Women Swimmer*—When the

Baby Is Teething—It Happened. A multitude of observers have noticed a Tast difference in character between the Trench man and the French woman. So little does this difference appear to be related to the common distinctions of sex that it has often been said that in France the woman is the man and the man the 'Woman. Making allowance for absurd exaggeration, there-is something to support the paradox. It is the disposition of the average French woman to take life much more serious! than the average Frenchman to realize and accept the obligations and duties in a nobler spirit of self sacrifice and courageous endeavor.

Women ot perverse nature, and whomsotiety lias spoiled, still represent buuu small minority of their sex in France. The majority,of whom the world knows very little, «od cares to know little, because they belong to the humdrum level of humanity, are endowed with admirable qualities for fighting the battle of life. Aa married -women they fight this battle

In num bedew* instances their clearsightedness, economy and energy liave saved their families from ruin. Their capacity for business and every kind of industry suited to their physical strength has without doubt caused a great deal to be expected of them which they might have escaped had they boon otherwise constituted.

Thus the wives of suvdl tradesmen very frequently do all the bookkeeping in addition to their household duties the wives of peasauts work in the fields from sunrise to night/all, and the wife of a mechanic or town laborer is expected to bring nearly as much money as himself to the house by dressmaking, artificial flower making, charing or some other occupation. But this is not all. It is upon his wife that the town workman relies when ho is out of employment. With all women solicitude for their cliUdron is tho great incentive to exertion. Tho Parisian workman often profits by this law of nature, and he would probably IKS worse of? if ho had no family. Itls no rare thing for a French beggar to urgo us a reason for helping liim that ho has no wife to rely upon when ho is out of employment.— Ioisure Hour.

Worth While.

A famous woman was ono day talking over old and new times with a friend of her childhood and youth. ''You must bo a proud and happy woman," said her old friend. "Your name is well known all over tho country. Your words are read and pondered in hundreds of homes." "That is pleasant, of course," was tho answer, "but I shall soou be forgotten. Let, mo toll you tho ono great satisfaction of my life, tho only deed 1 have ever done which can bo remembered with a perfect joy. "Wheu 1 was making my first hard Strug glo in my profession here in tho city my mother was living in adull country village, trying to endure tho timo until I could afford to havo her with me. One day when 1 was going down see her I bought some crocus bulbs in what seemed a lit at wild extravagant, and took them with me. "1 planted them carefully and refused to tell her what they were, exacting a promise that she would leave tho ground untouched. At first she troated tho mystery as a joke then she forgot all about it. Next spring, when tho little village was all mud and desolation, my mother chanced to look out one day, and sawa yellow (lower in the yard. "She could not believe her eyes she rubbed her spectacles and looked ugaiu. Without doubt it was a yellow flower, and she put asluiwl over her head and ran out to examine it. Next day the little bed was alive with purple, white and yellow, and the neighbors camo flocking in to see the flQwers which hrwl blossomed almost in "snow. "Such a ht was nover soon in tho village Iwforo, and my mother was tho heroine irff tho hour. Through tho excitement of that blossoming time she actually forgot to write mo. 1 Iwllovo It did her as much good as a trip to F.u rope. "She is riot hero now, but I would rather have given her that great pleasure tlum to lx famous from ono polo to tho other."—

Woman's Place In the Family. Woman was not created to be an ornament to man, nor to bo his slave for a wouum to toil out her strength and life is as foolish as it is to idle them away. In the first place, if a man loves his wife tenderly aud truly, ho will take cjire of her so, when slio finds that ho is putting the love of gain, the greed of wealth, tho hoarding up of tho almighty dollar above her care and comfort, sho may feel assuted that he will not bo sorely grieved when the grass grows green above her. To bo a wife and a housekeeper Is enough for any woman —entirely too much if she bo also a mother, because in this ease every moment of her time will be occupied with worry and work.

As soon as business man Amis himself busy from morning liU night ho cries out for a dark. "By jove, now, I must have a clerk!" Then, presently, ho must havo a bookkeeper then a stenographer, and soon. While, frequently, if you go to his house and [MtU aside tho curtains you will find a pale, faded, patient wife, cooking, sweeping. washing, ironing, scrubbing, cleaning wood work and caring for two or three children. These are the women who do "not know where to draw tho line between duty and hrut«tity~»for it is brutal for a man to expect his wife to work Iwyond her strength,—iiia lli^lnsoa in West Shore,

Something Happened.

It is little wonder that many country people are greatly impressed with the dangers of city travel. There seems no good reason why estimable people from the country, who certainly have more regard for the truck drivers and other autocrats who practically control the city streets than do their city cousins, should be singled out to be knocked down, trampled on and flattened out by wheels. An old lady from the country was crossing the bridge a few days ago. She had dodged the numerous dangers that menaced her along Park row, had found put that the bridge car was sure to stop at Brooklyn, and in comparative relief from her torturing fears, had settled into a seat.

evidently feeling pretty safe as

she started down the stairs on the Brooklyn side. She was just ten steps fnom the bottom when a young man carrying a large valise reached the top. He stepped on a piece of orange peel out went his feet, up went his hands and down the stairs bounded the big bag. It struck the good old country lady, threw her off her feet before she knew wliat had struck her, aud carried her like a roller under a log to the bottom. There she lay with the bag resting under her head like a pillow. "There," gasped the good soul when she recovered her breath, "I am glad it is over. I knew when I started out this morning that something was bound to happen to me. I'm glad it didn't kill me, anyway." And sho went her way, lame but thankful.— New York Times.

Value of Massage.

Massago is worth every dollar that it costs for the nervous relief it gives. Many women never know for years what it is to feel rested and soothed till they come under tho hands of a masseur. Every motion is aforethought and of purpose, and the quiet, practiced touch tells on the fretted nerves like tho brush of an angel's wing feather.

Tho massage alone is enough to take twenty years off a woman's age, but when the wrinkles are deep, after the penetrating ungent lias had time to nourish the skin a little, cupping is employed. Tho apparatus is a glass cup, with rubber bulb attached, which when %ressed creates a vacuum under it, ,thc skin is drawn into the cup and tho suction takes the creases out. Th® wrinkle treatment is harmless enough if ono wants to bother with it. Taken in time, with enough exercise given the parts of the face, wrinkles will become only a 'word in the dictionary, or there will be shops which supply them for lady physicians and politicians, as they supply gray hair switches for those who want them.

Those dreadful lines in tho throat which betray ago or wear need only the massage and steaming to destroy them. Tho hands, too, havo their treatment, which teaches tho arteries to do their work and relieve the veins which furrow tho skiu.—Shirley Dare in Now York Herald.

tin proving Our Talents.

I heard a lady of wealth say iu refevence to her daughter's education that she proposed to havo her well educated, and then soo if sift hjul any especial talent and have that cultivated sho also intended to havo her taught some useful art that would servo her in case she should ever have to make her own living.

I thought it was a very sensible w.oman who could feel and reason In this way. If our girls and boys were educated with an eye to their future success in life, how much more successful the lives of many of them would be. The same lady (who by tho way was taking her daughter to New York to school that she might havo every advantage) said: "One thing I am determined on, that is to have my daughter go to a eooklugschool and bo taught all about housekeeping." With nil a woman's accomplishments, if sho is not a good housekeeper and cannot mako her home neat and kcop her table well appointed she has failed in half her life's work.—Atlanta Constitution.

To Purify the Sick Itoom.

The utmost cleanliness is essential in a sick room. Water should always be at hand, and the sponge freely and frequently used. Everything offensive should be instantly removed. A little aromatic vinegar, or lavendar water, or other perfume, may Ik? employed, according as they are grateful to the sick person, but these should never be employed to disguise odors that would otherwise be offensive. To neutralise all unpleasant odors the following wash should be employed in every department of the sick room: Take an ouuee of chlorate of Htae and dissolve it in a gallon of water, or about one dram to a pint, and keep it closely corked. The floor, wood work and all parts of the sick room may be sponged with this, with the exception of metals and colored cottons or cotton clothes. Although the smell of this solution may at first be offensive, it will soon pass off. and leave the air of the apartment perfectly sweet and purified, it taiiv at tho same time perfectly harmless to tho invalid.—New York Ledger.

They play at tea parties before they can talk, A boy runs away and goes in. swimming, dries hte hair in the sun and comes home again as good as new. A girl surreptitiously helps herself to jam and cookies and steals away somewhere for a picnic, and wheu her mother doses her for colic at night and wonders what makes her so delicate she wants to be real naughty. A little girl's pocket is a kind of lardfer full of sweets and goodies. A boy carries marbles and strings, or may be worms for bait and snails. At school or college, when a girl would be wildly dissipated, she gathers in her chums, corks up the crack of the door and makes Welsh rarebits and taffy over a lamp chimney.

A Tribute to a Noble Woman. There is no surer sign of a mors liberal civilization and a wiser world than the perception that the bounds of legitimate womanly interest and activity are not to be set by men as heretofore to mark their own convenience and pleasure. The tradition of the lovely incapacity of woman reflects either the sensitive apprehension or the ignoble abasement of man. I have heard Margaret Fuller keep a company of young persons on journey constantly enthralled by her racy wit and humorous intelligence. A scholar, a critic, a thinker, a teacher, a queen of conversation, above all a person of a delicate insight and sympathy, the wisest of friends, of the utmost feminine refinement of feeling and of dauntless spiritual courage, she seems to mo still the figure of woman in the Nineteenth century, which was the title of her best known paper.— George William Curtis.

Slaking a Keg Into a Seat. A plush sofa cushion placed on the top of a keg turned it into a very comfortable seat. The keg Is covered with blue denim, or Kentucky jeans, laid on in box plaits and tacked at the top and bottom. A double plaiting at the bottom hides where the first is fastened down, and the top is finished with a fringe made of rope. Handles of rope are fastened on at either suie. The top is also furnished with a rope handle, so that it may easily be removed, for tho inside of the keg is nicely painted, to be used as a receptacle for sewing materials. The ctfshion is made of blue denim, bordered with dark blue plush, and is finished with a rope cord and tassels. A very pretty seat of this kind can be made by simply covering the keg with figure cretonne, using it'for the cushion as well, and dispensing with the fringe.—New York Journal.

Mme. Moiljeoka's Temper.

Mme. Helene Modjeska never allows her temper tq get the better of her. "I cannot afford to get angry," alio says. "A woman at my time of life must economise her emotions and her nerves if she wants to hold the remnants of her yodth and beauty. Any one can impose on tho-gentle woman. Laundresses forget to bring back her lingerie and ljveo edged handkerchiefs, light fingered chambermaids steal her shell hairpins, bell boys impose on her llnd modistes chargc her for enough to costume a giantess."—New York World.

In the carefully constructed nurseries of New York not a corner is tolerated or an angle permitted to go unturned against which baby can do himself bodily injury, Tho room itself is rounded into an oval or octagon, the window ledges slope, the door knobs are beyond reach and close with a spring, and the furniture is bent birch, bird's eye maple or some light finished wood, with every post, side and rung rounded like a spindle.

Mrs. Martha Gray, of Virginia, has been found by tho census man. Mrs. Gray is, now living with her third husband, and her record at rearing children is thus scheduled: Six triplets, eighteen six twins, twelve soven singles, seven total, thirtyseven children. When tho census enumerator facetiously remarked, "Tally one for Mrs. Gray," that good lady exclaimed: "You tally thirty-seven, and don't you forget itl''

Here is a novel way to scent a toilet. Fill a tiny pill bottle with ottar of rose or triple extract of jasmine and let it evaporate uncorked. If in the crush of the promenade or the flourish of the dance the vial capsizes, the delicious essence will percolate through tlia toilet and perfume it everlastingly. With ottar of almond and rose, orange and lily, retailing at ten cents a drop, this is by no moons an inexpensive fancy.

"The proper way to brush the hair," says a well known hair dresser, "is hot to brush it lengthwise, but to hold the ends of the hair, if it is long enough, and simply scrub the scalp ,.with the brush. This process promotes the circulation of the blood and excites the ail glands to action. After the hair lias boon thoroughly brushed in this way it should be then finished with a few vigorous strokes lengthwise of the hair

A MAID WHO BEGAN LIFE IN THE OIL REGIONS AND IS RICH.

She Tells the Story of Hor Strange and Exciting Career—She Started with Sl,OOO—She Sow Docs AH Her Busiuesi

Through the Xew York Stock Exchange.

There appears to be considerable interest in the story of Marie Pitou, the French maid, who came to the oil country in 1875. I have put together such facts as I know personally concerning her strange career. I saw Colonel and Madame Blank, formerly Marie Pitou, at the colonel's office on Broad street. They had already related the story to me, but I did not at the time have their consent to use it. The substance of the story is. as follows, a% related by Mme. Blank:

My maiden name was Marie Pitou. I came to America in 1875 with William and Robert Greaves and their wives. I was engaged as maid to Mrs. Robert Greaves. These gentlemen were wealthy landowners, and also had large interests in Glasgow, Scotland. My mistress was% an invalid, and the trip was made partly* on her account.

I» was not the intention to go iato the oil country, but reading in a Pittsburg paper while in that city of the "Boss" well it was decided tg visit it. I was 18 years old at that time. I had been taking care of myself since I was 14, and had become pretty independent. The quarrel I had witii Mrs. William Greavee at East Brady was a ulight affair, apd I suppose I took it ail a pretext to leave the? party, as I had fully mcde up my mind after seeing some of the oil wells around Petrolia to stay in the oil country. It sdemed so full of life and activity that I 'was really fascinated with the strange little world of oiL I could not be turned from this purpose."

I had 8400 which had been paid to mo as my share of the remnant of my father's estate the week before I left, and this money I had given in charge of Mrs. Greaves. This I obtained from her, and to the amount Robert Greaves added my. wages, amounting then to about $100, and $300 extra. William Gfteaves added 8200, so I came back to tho oil country with $1,000 in round numbers. ", ,'

HER FIRST INVESTMENT.

I did not have a very definite idea as to what I could do with this money, but I was fully determJhod to invest at least part of it iu the oil business. I had no idea what oil was worth or how much I might have to pay for laud. I remained at the Central-hotel in Petrolda for a week. I could speak only a little English, and could notjget along very fast. I got acquainted with a lady who drove me out to the Isaac Steele farm, but I could not make any investment there.

I heard of Butler and went over there. I gave a livery man 810 to drive me over in a buggy, and from this man I learned of a little tract of land which I visited the next day. I thought all laud was good for oil purposes and so made haste to buy it. I hired a lawyer, and he looked up the titles and negotiated for the purchase of it. Some days after I had made the purchase I heard that there was not much likelihood of oil being found there. I felt very blue and went to Pittsburg, thinking that if it proved valueless I might have to go into service again, and I would look around for a position.

The hotel keeper in Butler had my address, and one day I received a call from a man who wanted to buy my lease. I didn't sell it to him and others came to see me. 1 went up to Butler, and learned that wells on the Gillespie farm were creating some excitement. The farm was a considerable distance from my property, but I concluded to hold on for further developments. The excitement grew in that locality and there was great demand for my property. I was advised to put down a well, and would have done so had not such tempting offors been made to me to sell. I finally accepted an offer of nearly $4,000.

SHE LOCATES IN NEW YORK. Mme. Blank then related how she was scared out of tho oil country by the fear of nitro-glycerine, and came to New York. She remained here only a short time, and then went to Baltimore, where she made some money in real estate speculation. In Baltimore she became acquainted with the wife of a stock broker, and got some knowledge of the stock business. The broker had a connection with a New York firm, and finally bought into it as a partner and came to New York to enter tho oflicc. Marie Pitou camo with them, and through this firm made her first investment in Wall street. She was successful in increasing her bank account to 810,000, when she closed out all her deals and went to Paris to visit her sister.

When she got ready to return to New York her sister wanted to accompany her, and rather against her judgment she consented for her to do so. The sister was a delicate girl, and on the first day of the voyage she died suddenly of some heart trouble and was buried at soa. Mario was herself taken ill after this, and after landing in New York was taken to St. Luke's hospital, where she was obliged to remain for* three months.

Mme. Blank is a believer in dreams. Her husband related one that was fulfilled in a remarkable manner. She dreamed on two different occasions that there would bo a big break in the stock market witliitf a certain time, brought on by some exceptional financial disturbance. She was sufficiently impressed by it to clow out all her holdings of stocks, and at that time she had considerable, and g-j short of the market. This was the first time she had touched the oil market, and also gave her broker an order to sell a considerable amount of oil. On the second d.-:y after making these transactions came the Marine Ismk failure, and the stock market rattled down, oil following it in sympathy. In this decline and the subsequent recovery Mme. Blank made a small fortune.—New York Cor. Oil City Derrick. »v

A Hew Method of Treating Disease.

HOSPITAL REMEDIES.

What 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. The treatmentof other physicians celebrated for curing cntanh was procured, and so ou till these incomparable cures now include disease of the lungs, kidneys, female weakness, rheumatism, and nervous debility.

This new method of "one remedey forgone disease" must appeal to the common sense of all suflterers, many of whom have experienced the ili eEffects, and thoroughly realize the absurdity of the claims of patent medicines which are guaranteed to cure every ill 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.

You should heed the warning, you xre taking the first Hep into Nervous Prostration. You need a Nerve Tonic and in Electric Bitters you will fiud the exact remedy for restoring your nervous system to its normal, healthy conditiou.
