WOMAN AND HOME.

A DRESS REFORMER ON CORSETS AND PHYSICAL CULTURE.

Jfotnou* Women Walters—Fixing Up the Boy** [loom Symptom* of Crooked SpLnc— Beats tie* Jf a Contented Mind.

Good Thins* for Wives and Mother*.

Instantly one suggests that the corset is an unnatural and unhealthful article of clothing the alarmed woman of fashion exclaims that she must have the support that spread out waists and hanging bosoms, like those of the hard working peasant woman, are ungraceful and disgusting. She l» bath right and wrong if our reader can understand the paradox. Bui there is no more reason why the woman •who has time for the development of elegant proportions should bare the spread out appearance and clumpy waist and bust proportions of the peasant woman than why her slender, tapering hands should grow into a resemblance to those of the peasant.

Certain conditions of life favor certain conditions of physical evolution, and what we claim and can prove by actual demonstration is that Arm, well shaped busts and tapering and symmetrical waists are matters of physical development, and the cultivation of correct physical relations is necessary to insure the success of healthful modes of dress.

With the corset our principal point of attack is the steel which presses upon the stomach, the abdomen and diaphragm, giving a tendency toward a round shouldered or bent position of the body, which is ungraceful and awkward, beside doing physiological harm. Wo have never made any serious attack upon the whaleboned waists for those who wish them, and it may be well to say at this writing that there is point to which the waist will certainly spread if the corsets are left off and ihynica! development neglected that will neither graceful, beautiful nor necessarily healthful.— Jenness-Miller Magazine.

Women Writers.

The Irresponsible feminine free lance, with her gay dash at ail subjects, and her alliterative pen name dancing in every melee like a brilliant pennon, has gone over into the more appropriate field of journalism. The calmly adequate literary matron of all work is an admirable type of the past, no longer developed by the new conditions.

The article of the late Lucy M. Mitchell on sculpture, and of Mrs. Schuyler van Rensselaer on art and architecture the historical work of Martha J. Lamb and of *the lamented Mary L. I}ooth, the latter also an

indefatigable

translator, the stud

les of Helen Campbell in social science the translations of Harriet Waters Preston these few examples are typical of the determ nation and concentration of woman's work at the present day.

We notice In each new issue of a mngasine the well kyowu specialists. Miss Thomas has given herself to the Interpretation of nature, In prose as in verse "Olive Tliorne'" Miller to the loving study of bird life. Mrs. Jacksou. the most versatile of later writers, possessed the rare combination of versatility and thoroughness in finch measure that we might almost copy Hartley Coleridge's saying of Harriet Martineau and call her a specialist about everything but her natno will bo associ atod with the earnest presentation of the wrongs of the Indian, as that of Emma La&trus with xhe impassioned defense of the rights of the Jews.—Helen Gray Cone in Century. "The ISoy'M Room." 1 "fixed up" my boy's room out of as .unpromising a lot of material as usually falls to the lot of mothers to work with—an odd lotof furniture, no two pieces nlike, cxcept a set of bottomless chairs. A commode and fancy back to an old bureau wo built (my boy and I) out of dry goods boxes. The chairs we bought perforated bottoms for, atid fastened them in with brass headod tacks, theu stained them all with black walnut stain previous to varnishing, I decorated the bedstead, bureau and commotio with a fruit picture which the merchant kindly saved for me from his pieces of cotton cloth. I had twelve pictures, with which I made a handsomo decorated set of furniture,

I papered the walls with paper, cream colored ground, covered with a running vine with crimson buds peeping out, giving a rich warm tone to the room. I had an old ingrain carpet, drab ground with a pnttcrn of different shades of wood color in running vine. This I ripped ajftirt, washed each breadth and colored a port ion of It crimsou with dye. The dye colored the drab ground beautifully, whllo it only made the wood colors a little darker so hero was my carpet to match the rest of the room.

The draperies of turkey red, with lambrequin of cream color made of perforated shelf paper, harmonised with the other furnishings and made a cozy room for my boy, and it all cost less than ftvo dollars. The girls say their brother's room is prettier than theirs, and I am repaid for my labor in witnessing his enjoyment.—Cor. Springfield Homestead.

Symptoms of Crooked Splu«,

Crooked spine occurs for the most part in strumous children. When the curvature is so marked as to attract the attention of the parental, wheu it is really visible to the sense of sight, there Is no mistaking the disease for anything else, and the belief is generally expressed that the little one has hat! a Ml or mischance of some kind and has injured the spine. This may or may not have been, for although injury might encourage the deposition of tubercle in any particular pari, it is readily enough deposited in certain situations without anything accidental having occurred.

But before the actual deformity is visible to the non-medioal eye other symptoms will be noted the child will be pale and soft and sickly, and subject to pains about the chest and stomach. Sometimes a boy or girl in the earlier stage* of this complaint will h.-uo an old or old fashioned look, and the mind is often highly tksvulal the expense of the body. This is of course not invariably the rase. The child, however. srly cvino a weakness in rising up from a chair or lifting itself up in feed.

me to tell you that you would not be happy aihid wealth would be for you to disbelieve raa I hall not say so, but let me tell yoa what I once heard the Lata William H. Vanderbflt say over a table laden with the luxuries of the land, "Since the death of my father I can rememberonly three nights when I have been able to dismiss, matters from my mind and Snd sleep." To associate happiness with riches is one of the greatest fallacils of the timet.

Money is a comfortable thing to have, 1 grant you, but much of it is just as much of a burden as too little of it is a deprivation. To be discontented because yoa have not the means of some other woman of your acquaintance is to act the part of a foolish woman. All the wishing in the world won't bring another cent to your purse. Let circumstances take their course. Our conditions in life are always changing, and where there is lacking today there will be plenty to-morrow. Try the experiment of a contented mind, and see what happiness it will bring you.—Ladies' Home JournaL

Preserve the Hip Lines.

One of the greatest mistakes that women make in dressing is the common one of destroying the hip curves. The symmetrical lines of the hips should be brought out as carefully as in the waist line, yet nine women out of ten will load bands andgathers over the hips until every outline is lost. Be the woman slender or fleshy, she should insist upon having the seams of her dresses extend two or three inches below the waist line, with as much attention given to detail of fit as there is above the waist.

If you notice attentively you will discover that every woman who has a reputation for a beautiful figure invariably wears this style of dress. In fact, the reputation for grace and beauty of figure depends almost entirely upon the hip lines not being lost in drapery. Whatever the style of dress or drapery, this idea should be the fundamental principle, and modifications for changing fashions worked from it. It is becoming alike to both slender and fleshy people.—Chicago Herald.

You HE Mothers Should Be Careful.

After the birth of the baby the mother should be kept perfectly quiet for the first twenty-four hours, and not'allowed to talk or see any one except her nearest relations, however well she may seem. She should not get out of bed for ten days or two weeks, nor sit up in bed for nine days. The more care taken of her at this time the more rapid will be her recovery when she does get about.

She should go up and down stairs slowly, carefully and as seldom as possible for six weeks. She should not stand more than is unavoidable during that time, but sit with her feet up and He down when she has time to rest. She should not work a sewing machine with a treadle for at least six weeks, and avoid any unusual strain or overexertion. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," and carefulness will bo well repaid by a perfect restoration to health.—Mrs. Elizabeth It. Scovil.

Feed the nnhy Regularly.

Crying spells are not. without cause. In the majority of crises indigestion makes the trouble. Iu colic, that most painful form of indigestion, the infant kicks and screams at short intervals, the abdomen becomes bard and tense, and 'at the slightest pressure the little one's outcries becomo more distressing. Warm applica tions of flannel or flaxseed plaster generally bring relief. Tho child's meal times should be announced by the clock, irregu larity in this matter having much to do with the so called stomach troubles. A teaspoonful of lime water with every meal will act as a regulator for the bowels, refresh the stomach and aid in tho formation of bone and teeth. It is necessary that the child IMJ kept in an oven temperature as near 70 dogs. as possible, tho whole body being protected by light flannel underwear, high in tho neck and long sleeved.— Exchange. ..

To Make Lace Ixjok Ancient.

By a littlo clever manipulation even an ordinary quality of machine made lace can bo toned up to bear a close resemblance to the genuine article. If the pattern is good and thread not too coarse let the wearer go forth rejoicing. She may use her doctored trimming with impunity, and oven permit scrutiny stcure in the success of her imposture. Here is the recipe by which hundreds of yards are satisfactorily treated every year: Make a strong decoction of Oolong tea, strain, and when cold use to rinse tho lace. Do not crush in wringing, but press with the hands until partially dry. Now spread on a clean ironing board, and bo careful to separate tho- delicate points so that the pattern may be pre-, served. When dry a fine tea tint will be remarked, lending the raw material a valuable tinge of yellowed antiquity.—Exchange. _____

Canadian Tobogganing Dress. Iu Harper's Magazine Julian Ralph tells how tho Canadian women manage to keep warm. He went out to a toboggan slide and neafly chattered his teeth out, he was so cold. He asked a Canadian lady how it was that the girls could stand .such weather, nnd she answered naming a list of principal garments those girls were wearing. They bad two pairs of stockings under their shoes and a pair of stockings over their shoes, with moccasins over them. They had so many woolen skirts that an American girl would not believe one who gave the number. They wore heavy dresses and buckskin jackets and blanket suits over all this. They had mittens over their gloves, and fur caps over their knitted hoods. And these bouncing, buxom, pretty Canadian girls Are as healthy a lot of women as can be found on this earth.

Why Men Obtain Bigger Salaries.

There aro in New York probably eight man milliners who command s&laries of from 16,000 to 18,000 a year. When not making sample or order hats they go into the salesroom and tempt customers Into buying. The man milliner will pick up a broad brimmed hat, pucker It into a pretty shape, and while he holds it in this position with one hand he throws a wreath of berries, flowers or feathers around it, and nine times out Of tea the customer orders a down or two of hats, feathers and flower*.

The woman salesman tells the buyer what pretty head pieces can be made out of this or that 'Vhipe" trimmed with this or that article of trimming. She doesn't illustrate her idea she doesn't think St necessary. *&d consequently she doesn't make the sales and cannot demand the salary a man obtains^-"—Exchange.

ini3rfere with the affairs of a school in matters of which they have no knowledge or skill, would be amusing were it not so pitiful. While they talk Of anxiety and interest for the education of their children it is this meretricious end alone which many parents are seeking. The teacher receives their children with the knowledge her best work will never be appreciated.—Mrs. Sylvanus Reed in Scribner's.

A Wealthy Woman Physician.

Dr. Mary Putnam Jacobi is said to have the largest income of any woman in America who follows a profession. She earns $60,000 a year from her practice and her writings, and yet she lives as simply as if she earned a mere pittance. She is a wiry, nervy, alert little woman. She has little sympathy for women who fancy themselves ill, while for a woman who really suffers her sympathy is boundless.

Women have gone into medicine against the most violent protests. They have been called "hen physics" and various other names, which did not in the least appeal to their vanity, but with th& perversity of our first mother strong within them they have gone on just the same, and today the male doctors must look to their laurels.—New York Press. _______

Duties of Parents to Children*

One of the most important'duties of a parent in bringing up a child is to prevent the child from doing itself harm. The child does not know, for instance, that unlimited sweets and sours injure the digestion and impair the teeth the mother does know it, and it is her duty to have the child's supply of sweets and sours limited. The child does not know that the opportunity of getting knowledge at school, if neglected, is not likely to return, nor that its future happiness and success depend very much upon its improving the opportunities which its school now affords. The parents do know these things, and it is their duty to persuade, urge and, if necessary, to compel the child to study.—New York Ledger.

Make Your Own Chocolates.

Here is aNew England lady's recipe for cream chocolates: One quart of fine white sugar, half a pint of boiling water, half a pound of chocolate. Pour the water on the sugar, mix well and leave it to boil ten minutes without stirring. Place tho saucepan in cold water and stir briskly until it becomes stiff enough to handle. Mold it in little balls and put aside to cool. Break the chocolate in small pieces and put it in a bowl in the top of the boiling tea kettle. When melted remove the bovn and drop in tho balls one at a time. Take them out with a fork and place on buttered paper. When the chocolate is quite cold eat it with your friends.—New York Tribune.

Piercing I£ars No Longer Fashionable.

To pierce a child's ears is now regarded as execrably bad form, Of old no sooner was the little one christened and vaccinated than straightway the"careful mother whisked her daughter off to bo punctured at the jeweler's. Fashion has completely reversed these ideas, and today even the school girl, whose pretty pink lobes have been preserved intact, looks with commiseration upon the mutilated ears of her less fortunate companion. Pins and earrings arc now rarely sold in seta for young people, nnd It begins to look as though one relic of barbarism had been definitely laid aside.—Exchange

Bow Armenian Women Look.

Tho Armenian women look not unlike the other Turkish ladies. Womanhood in Turkey, however, is made up of a polyglot of races. The Armenian girls have, as a rule, large eyes with long lashes. They are tall and straight, and they take on fat very soon after marriage. They are very intelligent and very voluptuous. Many of them marry Turks, and now and then one of them takes after her brothers and gets into the mission schools and becomes well educated.—Frank G. Carpenter in National Tribune.

A young mother should wear warm underclothing, thick stockings and a flannel jacket over her night dress, unless she is in-the habit of wearing an under vest. If tho body is not protected by warm clothing there is an undue demand upon the nerv ous energy to keep up the vital heat, and nerve force is wasted by the attempt to compel the system to do what oiight to be done for it by outside meaus.

One of the last places visited by Dinah Mulock Craik before her death was Tewksbury, England, the town she selected as the home of "John Halifax, Gentleman." A memorial has recently been placed iu the Abbey of Tewksbury to her memory. It is in the form of a marble medallion, with this inscription running through the frieae: "A tribute to work of noble aim and 1to a gracious life."

Indigestion among children can be cured by carefully watching them and vigilantly preaching the wholesome doctrine of mastication. Teach the child that every morsel he swallows without chewing it thoroughly is so much poison to his health. They are tenacious of life, and what you say they will believe without questioning.

Arrange in a baking dish & layer of boiled rice, season with salt, pepper and bite of hatter, then a thin layer of^rated cheese, and so on alternately, using cheese for the top. Moisten well with rich milk or, better still, cream, and strew the top with rolled crackers. Bake twenty minutes, or until the top is alight brown.

Fresh Air for Baby*! Health.

I have found that an unfailing remedy for sleeplessness in

3ay

children is fresh air,

either taking thtm to it or introducing an abundant supply into their rooms. Taking them to it is the surest way. My nurse, when baby was two weeks old, was bewildered by so healthy a creature never deeping in the daytime, and used every means in her knowledge to cause sleep, but without success. At last-1 insisted that my recipe should be tried. She should take him into the garden. So she bundled him np, and then went for a handkerchief to cover his face. I objected—that would not do. She would protect his face with a sunshade, but he must have air. So out he went, with his great blue eyes wide open to look at the world.

Hardly had she crossed the threshold when the eyes were closed, and he had the sweetest and most peaceful nap he ever enjoyed in his life. I think one cause of sleeplessness in nursing babies is that their mothers take too little refreshing exercise in the open air. If I failed to be in the fresh air some time each day when I was nursing a baby I could always see the result in the increased fretfulness and nervousness of the child. A pleasant walk, or, if too tiresome, sitting out of doors for even fifteen minutes, always seemed to impart to the milk a quieting, healthful quality.—Babyhood.

Men Arc Fond of Nice Hnir.

If women only knew what ardent admirers men are of shining, well dressed hair they would devote far more consideration than they do at present to caring for and dressing it. After a fresh, red lipped mouth and handsome eyes, masculine attention is most strongly attracted by the sleekness and sheen of a woman's head. Many a strong hearted Galahad who has successfully defied blushes and dimples succumbs without a struggle to the seduction of silky love locks and a wealth of rich braids. Nor is it unnatural that this feature should appeal so directly to their sense of female beauty. Having to go close cropped themselves, with astern repression of curls and crimps as effeminate, men unite in adoring the charmingly combed hair of their women friends. Some few of the fairer sex are clever enough to appreciate this fact, and at the outset adopt and then study the style of coiffure that best suits their looks. —New York Sun.

A Question Answered.

Tuesday forenoon a pleasant faced lady and a broad browed, bearded professor were glancing over the numerous volumes arrayed in a Broadway book store. "My answer," sho said, "to the question, 'Have women brains?' is 'Look around.' Why, there must be here at least a hundred books by female authors, and many of them are superior to the books written by men on the same subjects. They are not all novels, either but many of them deal with the highest, deepest aud broadest themes of thought, from astronomy to psychology. It is foolish "in these times to sneer at women's brains, especially when visiting a bookshop." The professor freely Admitted that the remarks of his niece were justified by the display of books bearing women's names on their title pages.— New York Sun.

Save Odd Pieces of Striug.

Only a piece of string! Never mind, save it you may not need it at this moment, but before long you will be glad that tho string was not lost or destroyed, for short pieces of twine are often useful.

Ilang the string on a convenient hook, and do tho same with every piece of cord that comes into the house on parcels from the grocery or dry goods store or elsewhere. Save all kinds of string, and when a large number of pieces has been accumulated sort out the different styles, and at odd moments tie together all similar pieces with firm, neat knots. If tied properly in a square knot tho knot will never slip. Make each different kind of string into a separate ball.-^-Youth's Companion

Miss Cordelia Spraguo a Typewriter.

Among the curious hobbies of women in the social swim, not the least remarkable is that of Miss Cordelia Sprague, daughter of Col. Sprague, secretary of the Union Dime Savings bank. To while away a tedious hour Mi&s Sprague thought she would like to be able to use the typewriting machine that she saw in her father's office.

In an incredibly short space of time she became sufficiently expert to be useful, and now whenever anew form of machine is put on tho market and' sent up to her father for trial he turns it over to her, and he considers her recommendation of sufficient value to place his name underneath it.—New York Journal.

A Hint for a Loving Wife.

The average man wants to cock bis feet up. If you said to the piazza group, "Make yourselves unreservedly comfortable," they'd all tilt their chairs back and hoist their feet to the railing.

My friend next door had the foot hoisting habit so badly that he wore the paper off the wall so his wife thought out a biting, caustic piece of sarcasm, and one morning nailed on the wall right where the telltale marks were a pair of slippers. But he misunderstood the motivecompleteiy, kissed her for her thoughtfulness, and forthwith tilted his chair back and up went his feet to the most comfortable attitude he had struck in.a long time, his heel held in the slippers.—Exchange.

The Coming Woman.

The cooing woman will appreciate the vast difference between modesty and prudery. She will hot allow her daughter to learn lessons which most be of vital importance to her from any but the maternal lips. She will not be deluded by the fallacy that ignorance and innocence are synonymous terms. She will teach her children that there Is evil in the world.and that it is to be shunned and avoided, and that in order to escape the pitfalls set for the unwary they, her children, must know what and where they are.—Exchange.

Baby clothes and children's garments need not be weighty to he warm. Bulkiness is a hindrance to comfort. There is no reason lor using velvet trimmings oo a runabout's dress tncked flannels and clothes are equally objectionable. It Is positively cruel to saw any buttons on the tack of a night gown or school drew.

Some sort of protection should be furnished to shield the child's eyes from the glare of the sun. A veu is not as good as a hat or muslin bonnet with a brim. lafants that are rolled about the street wea^ ing a cap should have a movable parasol or canopy attached to the perambulator.

A New Method of Treating Disease.

HOSPITAL REMEDIES.

What are they? Therein 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 catanh was procured, and so on till these incomparable cures now Include disease of tho lungs, kidneys, female weakness, rheumatism, arid nervous debility.

This new method of "one romedey forgone disease" must appeal to the common sense of all sufferers, many of whom have experienced the ill eflbcts, aud thoroughly realize the absurdity of the claims of patent medicines which aro 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 proprletore.
