WOMAN AND HOME.

IS TIME TO STOP THE TALK OF THE SUPERIOR SEX.

When Yonr Boy Comes Home from School. A BunlneH for Women—Ta«t« in Chooslaff Caltcoe»—The Smart Voang Wom&n.

Abolish the Sewing Fetich.

Wearying of the continual assertions which certain of the other sex have maintained, like the whistling of a boy in a cloudy night, perhaps to keep his courage tip, the new generation of women hare refused to waste time in bandying words, but hare gone to work to disprove the assertions. And now it seems evident that with a few generations of this intellectual effort and determination, and an education hitherto granted only to men made the general property of women, these girl graduates— the Fawcetts, the Ramsays, the Reeds—will no longer be exceptional, nor will there be any question of superior brain or superior •ex but a glad and free equality will put soch vexing matters aside, will acknowledge that brain has nothing to do with sex, and will allow men and women to go forward together to whatever glorious end is theirs.

The woman whose intellect has been trained will not be necessarily a pedantic bore or an overpowering force in the family the better her training the better her balance the better her understanding of her household needs and her ability to meet them, the better will she know how to retain and increase the affection once secured, and to make her home all that the ideal home should be. Beauty will still be beauty, charm will still be charm and academicul honors cannot strip women, of either and the love that is attracted by them when accompanied by thorough intellectual development is a love which will outlast that captured by the tricks and arts which kindle but a temporary flame, for the development of the mind develops and enlarges all the rest of the being, other things being equal. It is well known that there are no better mothers, nor more faithful wives, nor more accomplished housekeepers, nor more delightful guests than can be found among our present cultured, learned and literary women.

All tho education in the world will not eradicate from the feminine nature the household instincts or the love of home and children. Nowhere is real intellectual training found to weaken the feminine type but, on the contrary, homes are finer, richer, more exulted and happier under its power. It brings about a perception of mutual rights that does not come to the ignorant it prevents encroachment it renders due honor, ind it knows how to produce comfort and joy, and puts the knowledge to use. When at last any wide number of women thus trained for generations have married—for if marriage is not to be tho aim of these women, it is at any rate tho destined end of theso as of all others— and have married men who did not suffer themselves to bo outstripped, it can only he a mighty raco of men and women which will bo born and reared, compared with whoso achievement all that wo have at present will seem rudimentary.—Harper's Bazar.

When Your Hoy Comes from School. Whufc an appetito ho hasl How hungry ho is always I Iiow the cookies vanish and tho gingerbread disappears before his determined onslaught! Ho is all noise and rtipu lse, and warts and freckles! II is hands are dirty liia finger nails rimmed with black ho has stuck a "cud of gum" to the «liolf in tho pantry to clear the way for tho edibles, and his trousers are torn at tho knees ntnl he smells of ilsh bait and peppermint candy, but ho is your boy, and you love him.

The house is turned upside down immediately. Ho wants a string for his kite. Ho wants some lead. He wants a bigger flah hook. Ho wants his ball mended. Ho wants money for Jim to pay him the boot on the jnckknifo ho has swapped. He wants to go fishing with Tom and Jack.

He crams his mouth full of bread and butter, and with tho jelly running out of tho corners ho makes his wants known. "Ma, can't I havo bicycle? I want one. Where's pa? Who's been hero with a carriage? Where's my box of worms? I wish 1 hod a pistol or a shotgun. Jim's got one. Soy, ma, teacher says I've been late twice, and it's only just once. Jim's been late a dozen times, and never got morked. I did ten examples today. I wish I had a new slate. Oh, mn, the circus is coming next month I Can't I go every day? I wish I was a circus or a monageriel Wouldn't 1 havo jolly old times! Going to school is awful slow! "Tom's dog bit Mike Lane. They think he's got tho hydrophobia.

And with a whoop.and a hurrah he dashes out of tho house, and leave# a track of mud behind him and a generally disordered room for you to clear up.—Now York Weekly. __

A lUwlne** for Women.

Many women in these days declare that they want to work, and that they are willing to work If they only Knew what to do. Hatty of these—most of them, indeed—are borne wqtuett* whose bread winners have been taken away, leaving them with meager resources and no qualifications for earning a living- I have noticed that if you go to a small town—by this I mean a town of from 2,000 to 10,(W) inhabitants— and inquire where you may obtain good ice cream, or good coffee and cake, or good bread and butter, you will be directed to •omo cheap and probably vile coffee house or restaurant in which unpleasant odors invariably prepare you for what is coming to your table.

Now, I believe that two bright and refined women could go to any flourishing town and make money pleasantly and without loss of self respect by renting a •mall room, making it cheerful and at

Taste in Choosing Calicoes. A rich and beautiful dress loses all its beauty in a kitchen. I was one day looking at cheap calicoes. Standing beside me were two ladies very richly dressed, heard one lady say to the other: "Why, take anything what do you care? It is only a cheap calico."

It was only a cheap calico, I know but why not buy a pretty, becoming calico instead of a hideous, unbecoming one? A lady, a really true lady, that lives near me takes as much pride in choosing her calicoes as she does her cashmeres, for, as she said: "I spend more than half my time in calicoes, and if I don't look fresh and pretty then my husband and children will not try to look so, too."

I asked her one day to show me her calicoes and she seemed quite as much pleased in showing those calicoes to me as some society belle would in displaying before the admiring eyes of her dearest friend an expensive dress which had just come in from some swell modiste.

Now I will tell you what they were. One was a very pretty dark grten, with a tiny, narrow white stripe, that she wore in the morning. It was a loose wrapper, tied in front with a big sash of the same, and cost $1.50.

There was a very pretty pink one with small white dots. That was for afternoon. It was made in the form of a wrapper, the sleeves being very full and shirred into the wrist.

The sack was of the same. There were dark purples and light blues, and when she threw them over her arm to take them away I felt like embracing that woman and her cklicoes, too.

She is a brunette, with a good deal of color, and can wear all those pretty shades. —Boston Globe.

The Smart Young Woman.

She is more than certain as to dates, she can tell you exactly what you ought to do, and she fails herself to see that she is a living example of how disagreeable one person can be. Young men dread her, old ones have the utmost contempt for her. She tosses her head says she doesn't care for the opinion of men. Well, she is losing her womanliness when she feels that way. Every girl ought to care for the opinion of men. She has her father to look up to, her brothers to be an inspiration to, and some day, please God, she ought to marry one and make him happy for life. Tho girl who knows everything is seldom cultivated either in mind or manner. She throws out her bit of information as a naughty boy would throw bricks, and the one fired is always the one just gotten.

My dear, don't get into the habit of concluding that the world at large is ignorant. Instead, make up your mind that it can teach you much intelligence is never lost. Even if absolute information is not given by the intelligent woman, the look of cultivation shows in her eyes. Contradiction and ignorance are the combination that forms tho knowing girl, and as you love everything good and good mannered beware of drifting into being this type of girl.—-Ladies' Home Journal.

\v Abolish the Sewing JTotlclur A flue state of affairs it would be if every man when, ho wanted a mutton chop went out and killed and dressed his own sheep, and every man when ho wanted a pair of boots made them) The world is too busy nowadays for the individual to stand by himself and supply his own needs. For tho housewife to spare her husband's income by patient stitcliery is sweet labor we shall be loug in abolishing, but for the army of women who work at bread winning occupations all day to sit up half the night to mako their clothes is ruinous economy.

Tho man who earns $5 a week has more common sense. He doesn't put his evenings into the sewing of pantaloon seams. Thfe woman's business is to sleep and get strength to make tho especial work she has chosen more valuable. It will cost her more than money to burn the candle at both ends. We need to get rid of the sewing fetich, tho idea that there is an inherent, peculiov virtue in a woman's setting stitches.

In point of fact it's all a matter of convenience, and civilisation will not have done the fair thing by one whole sex until it is as easy for a woman to walk into a dry goods store and buy at a reasonable price a tasteful dress aa it is now for a man to supply himself with a good business suit ready made.—New York Commercial Advertiser.

Tho Work of a Nurse.

The regulation charge of first class professional nurses in Now York is $31 a week, and they are in demand at that price. The engagement of a thoroughly trained nurse is considered by physicians as half the battle against disease won. Tho high wages earned has brought into the profession large numbers of women who have been well bred and delicately reared, but who have been unfortunate in losing their means of support* They are as particular in choosing their places of service as patients are in choosing them. In talking with such a nurse she said to mc: "I always want to know that I am going where I will be well treated—that is, not as a servant, but as the peer of any member of the household. I feel that I occupy a confidential relation to the household, riot second even to that of the family physician, do not consider any labor that I may be called upon in my capacity as nurse to perform as menial. It is the labor of necessity which many perform through love, but which I undertake as a professional duty." —Interview in New York Press.

millionaire, added materially to her fortune in this way beforeshe died, and there ai® a number of other society ladies who speculate in houses and lots. Not a few of the fortunes of Washington are founded on real estate, and a large part of that left by Ctarcoran comes from the rise of Washington property. i.

One of the most aristocratic families in the northwest section dates its origin back to a lot which the grandfather of the hightoned young ladies of today owned. This grandfather was a butcher, and be had a very pretty daughter whom the cook of Sir Charles Vaughn, the British minister to the United States a decade or go ago, saw and fell in love with. When Vaughn went back to England the cook ^remained and married the daughter of the butcher. The butcher died, leaving his lot, which was sold at an enormous figure, and which formed the foundation of the present family's fortune.

Not long ago the butcher's daughter took it upon herself to criticise the admission of the daughters of a poor but blue blooded naval officer into Washington society. In speaking to one of the most refined ladies of Washington about it she said, "What an idea, Mrs. Blank. I don't think we ought to admit these people to our circle. Washington society is growing so common, and we really must draw the line somewhere." "Yes," replied the lady sarcastically, "that may be true, but where shall we draw the line, at the sirloin or the tenderloin?"—Washington Letter.,

Do not leave the bottle uncorked for an instant, except while removing the brush, and apply the cement as rapidly as possible, or it will harden. Where' there is a targe hole a piece of what is known as "rubber dam," which may also be purchased from a dealer in dentists' supplies, may be useful. Cut out a piece of this of suitable size, fasten it over the whole with a few stitches and brush over the rubber with the cement. Care should betaken not to inhale any chloroform nor to leave this cement where children can get to it.— New York Tribune.

Meeting Kate Field*

Miss Kate Field is an amiable spinster of years so mature as to justify suppression of their number. She is both literary and commercial. When we first had the honor of knowing tho lady—wo might say of being first presented, for we do not feel that we quite know her yet—she was at the head of a great business concern in the city of New York. It had a restaurant in it, where we dined on the third floor. The restaurant is not now in operation. When first introduced we politely said we were "proud to know her," and she replied that "she was glad we were proud." It was very funny, and we thought it very funny —we were young then, and it was our first visit to the city cf New York.—San Francisco Argonaut.

Wet Weather Petticoat*.

Wet weather petticoats area sensible innovation. They aze made of ordinary woolen material, lined for the depth of half a yard with a fancy waterproof stuff, so that, however wet and damp a day it may be, the wearer will stand no risk of catching cold by a wet skirt dabbling round her feet in the supremely uncomfortable manner which skirts have on a pouring wet day. These and the gaiters which common sense women have also adopted—usually made to match the color of the dress—go along way toward making a woman as careless of the weather as a man,—Chatter.

It is sometimes very convenient to have a cement for India rubber, by means of which a worn spot in the overshoes or any rubber article .may be repaired without expense or trouble. To make a small quantity of such a cement, sufficient to Keep for emergency, purchase five cents' worth of red rubber from some dealer in dentists' supplies. Cut it into bits, put it into a bottle and cover it with chloroform. In about ten minutes it will be dissolved. It should be applied with a brush like a mucilage brush.

Gallantry and a Hat.

She took the pin from her hat to fasten a bunch of roses on her breast. A gust of wind came along and blew the hat out of the window of the Sixth avenue elevated train in which she was sitting on her way up town.

She was about 20, decidedly chic and handsomely dressed. She blushed a little, but few people in the car noticed tho accident. f/1'-'

A young man who sat across the aisle saw what had happened. He hesitated a moment, and then taking his own straw hat, with a striped ribbon around the crown, handed it to her with his card.

She took the hat and card, but before she could thank the giver he had buried himself in liis paper, seemingly oblivious of $11 around.

The young woman threw tho roses out off tho window and pinned the hat firmly on her imperial head.

She left the train at. Eighteenth street.— New York Journal.

Queen Victoria's Old Age.-

Queen Victoria at tho age of 71 is a very plain old lady, and she was by no means good looking some thirty years ago, while she was still in the prime of life. She suffered a great deal from attacks of erysipelas, which reddened and coarsened her skin. She lost her teeth very early in life, owing to the use of a camphorated dentifrice to which she took a great fancy and which proved most pernicious. But from her accession at the age of 18 till she was 25 or 20 the queen was a very pretty young woman, fresh and fair, with soft blue eyes, a small, rosy mouth and the loveliest arms and shoulders imaginable. Her lack of height was always a great drawback, and was the cause of her delighting in giving grand fancy costume balls, at which she was wont to appear in a court toilet of the Eighteenth century, the high heeled shoes which must perforce be worn with such a dress lending a very becoming addition to her stature.— St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

FIRST NAMES OF YOUNG WOMEN.

Some of the Names of Young Teachers Whb HHVO Been Graduated Recently. Fifty-two young women were graduated from the training department of the Normal college and 274 from the college proper. This is the college which specifl cally prepares its students to be teachers, and it is therefore a professional school attended by young women who art^getting ready for the serious work of making their 'living.

But when we read the names of a large part of these graduates we find that they are appellations which suggest rather a gay and giddy view of life and its responsibilities. They are not the names of mature and serious women, but of the pets and playthings of the nursery. We cannot associate with them the dignity and the consequence of teachers occupied with graver matters than dolls and curl papers, and with stern duties rather than with the ease and pleasures of existence. They do not befit young women who are starting out to prepare themselves for an exhausting profession and are no longer rocked in cradles or guarded from the cares and hardships of the world by doting domestic affection.

Twelve of the class of fifty-two in the training department and about fifty of the .274 graduates of the college sign themselves with mere pet names ending in ie, as if they had no other, and from manifest preference for the nursery diminutives. Among these are Bessie, Jennie, Nellie, Carrie, Birdie, Mamie, Addle and Fannie, no real names at all, but only appellations coined by the familiarity and tenderness of privileged relatives and intimates. What Birdie's baptismal name is we cannot guess, but the true names of the others areElizabeth, Jane, Helen, Caroline, Mary, Adeline and Frances, all feminine designations of a distinguished history, noble, dignified and euphonious.

But these girls look upon them as too homely, too old fashioned. They think a name ending in ie is much prettier and more engaging, and so it maybe in jts proper place and as an expression of affection from those who aro entitled by kinship or long and close acquaintance to use it in addressing a young woman. But, all the same, it is a pet name and nothing else. It is no more the real name of a woman than Johnnie or Bob, Sam or Jim are the true names of men.

Yet the girls still insist on using such diminutives as if they were their formal appellations, and sometimes they carry them through life, printing them on their cards and signing them to formal documents, takiug them to the marriage altar and giving them for newspaper publication. They think it nice to do this, and yet in truth it is vulgar, and detracts from the estimation in which women of character, ability and dignity should be held. They invite presumptuous familiarity. They keep their bearers forever in the nursery.

Why, oh, why, will so many lovely, stately, splendid, self respecting girls persist in the petty and incongrous practice? Alas, alas! we have tried in vain to make them do otherwise. They insist on compelling us to publish them as if they were little tots in pinafores.

How fine are theso names of other of the graduates: Ethel, Edith, Florence, Alice, Katharine, Charlotte, Mabel," Harriot, Winifred and Gertrude unci how much better they befit young womanhood than Ettie, Florrie, Edie, Allie, Kittie, Lottie, Hattie, Winnie and Gertie!

But this is a department of reform upon which we enter with little hope of winning distinction by overcoming feminine opposition and improving the feminine taste. Tho girls think they aro beyond the need of such instruction, and we have not the hardihood to chide them as they deserve. Besides, whatever their names, does not their loveliness remain the same, irresistible and beyond comparison?—New York Sun. ..

A Delightful Society^

Some girls in the city have organized a new and delightful society, known as the Seashell society. It is a very modest club, and meets at the homes of its various members, but the object sought for and, strange to say, accomplished is at once ntertaining and instructive.

The members of the club range from 16 to 20 years of age. Some of them are still in school, but most of them have earned the Tennysonian degree of S. G. G.

Each girl, when she goes away for the summer, is expected to find as many varieties of seashells'as possible, study up on them, and read a descriptive report at the first ffill meeting of the society. The girl who has the best and longest list is presented with a gold vinaigrette, or a silver rose jar or some other pretty yet inexpensive prize. The amount of conch ological knowledge which each girl acquires during the summer months is astonishing, and, so one of them says, gives a girl the most dignified and proper reason in all the world for strolling

Women More Economical Than Men. A Washington street banker says: "My observation brings me to the conclusion that women who are thrown on their own exertions manage better than men, and will save a little out of a small income where a man would give up or commit suicide. A man thinks it beneath his manhood to make less deposit than IS. A poor woman with two or three children to support will wash, iron, cook and nurse, take from ?5i to $10 a week for the same, support her little household, buy her children au occasional toy or a little camly, keep her house looking tidy, herself presentable, pay her rent and make deposit here weekly of from 50 cents up to $1. We have se\*crnl such depositors in this bank. I never see one of those pale faced, tired out looking women at the window that I do not feel like going out and saying something to encourage her. "I don't have much time to read, but I do not believe there are any such stories in print as I could tell, yon, if it were proper to do so. Women stand misfortune better than men. That is ihy observation. I was in one of the savings banks that went under in this city several years ago. Tho poor women who were the losers were the heroines. While some of the lien who lost raved, went mad and some committed suicide, the poor women went on silent and sorrowful, beginning life again penni-less."—-Chicago Tribune.

Kate I-'ichl Mukcx a Correction. At her literary work Miss Field nowadays wears a bright red satin dress reformed after her own ideas, and touched up with frills and shells of soft lace.—Exchange.

I wish the chiel that takes notes would be just a trifle more in love with tho truth. I never had a "bright red satin dress," "reformed" or otherwise.

I don't think a bright red satin dress could be reformed except by annihilation. I utterly loathe bright red satin, and wouldn't wear it under any consideration.

Bright red satin might be possible for Bome women in a ballroom or on the stage, but for a working gown it is tho worst taster conceivable.

In addition, bright red satin is horribly unbecoming to ninety-nine women out of a hundred. I am not the hundredth.

May this well meant but exasperating paragraph, which has pursued me for months and given me several indigestions, now be buried beyond the possibility of resurrection, even on the day of judgment. —Kate Field.

^Mothers and Children.

"The mither's breath is aye sweet," says a Scotch proverb. The same sentiment is less tenderly expressed by a German and a French proverb, "Mother's truth keeps constant youth."

Another Scotch proverb is illustrative of the influence of parental example: "Trot feyther, trot mither, how can foal amble?"

The idea expressed by tho English proverb, ''The crow thinks her own bird the fairest," takes in German tho form of "Every mother's child is handsome," or "No ape but swears he has the finest children."

Every mother knows, though many heed not the fact, that unless she transfers some household duties to tho daughter she encourages her child to grow up in sloth and ignorance. An English proverb thus utters the warning: "A light heeled mother makes a heavy heeled daughter."-^.Youth's Companion.

A New Method of Tre&tiog 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, catarrh was procured, and so on till these Incomparable cures now include disease of the lungs, kidneys, female weakness, i^ieumatlsm, and uervous debility.

This new method of *'one remcdey foj^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 f«ent free on receipt of stamp t*» pay postage by Hospital Remedy Company, Toronto, Canada, sole proprietors.
