WOMAN AND Hum

A MAN'S IDEAS OF WHAT CONSTI

TUTES A PERFECT WOMAN.

DrtM of Tnrtlsk Women—-Decoration of Home*—Som.'tl Adrice for Women—The Women of the Himalayas Manual

Training for Women.

Hero i« a man's idea of whnt the perfect woman should be for some sweet girl to cat

oat and paste in her scrap book: First of all, because be is a man, he insist* that the perfect woman shall always he well dressed,* in as mncb taste as the irilly fashion of the day will allow, and in such away as "to set off her beauty when nhe is younj?, to make her seem still beautiful when ribc is past her youth, and to hide the ravages of time when she is old

Next she mast know something about art of all kinds—art in painting, sculpture, poetry, literature, music, and must have trained her eye bo that she knows good work and is not carried away with shams and humbugs.

Above all, she must be sympathetic, and not talk so as to show how clever she is, but to bring out the best point* of the man she is talking to.

She must be intelligent and gracious, as well as sympathetic, and always a woman's woman, of whom other women think and apeak well.

She must love everything that is beautiful and good, and hate everything that is coarse and ugly.

And the man who has set forth this comprehensive little gospel of womanhood, which every girl would do well to read, mark and inwardly digest, is none other than Walter Besant

Ru.nkin gives dressing, also, as one of the three cardinal virtues which every womanly wrfman must possess, and says that women should always "dress beautifully, not finely, unless on occasion, and then very finely and beautifully, too. It would appear that, in consideration of refined men, true women are queens of the realm by right divine, and lose something of their high prerogative when their robes of state are shabby and crumpled.—New York Sun.

Ir«n» of Turkish Women.

The clothing of the iieasant women is warm and comfortablo for winter wear, but would be intolerably hot and heavy in summer. Only the sturdy frame of a Bulgarian could easily support the weight of her full gala costume, with nil the ponderous silver ornaments worn on head, neck, waist arid wrists. This costume consists of a gown of unbleached linen or cotton reaching from the neck to the ankles, and decorated round the borders, and especially on the wide sleeves, with elaborate embroidery fiiul drawn work in fine colored wools.

Overt his is worn another gown similarly decorated, but without sleeves and open at the sides, and over all a sleeveless coat of white felt, finely braided in artistic patterns and colors. A snsh several yards long and about, two inches in width is twisted round the waist, and the costume is completed by an apron which is sometimes covered with elaborate needlework. On the head is worn a tiny cap covered with gold and silk braid, from which hangs over fcho shoulders and below tho waist an ample fringe of braided scarlet wool or gold and black silk, and over the rest of the head dress is thrown a square of white cotton, embroidered round the borders with silk, and fastened to the cap with Innumerable silver ornaments and strings of coin.

The working dress is of the same pattern, but of plainer make and more sober color, and two or three such costumes last a Bulgarian woman from her wedding day to the day of her death. We may add that she usually goes barefoot when about her dally avocations, and puts on her shoes and embroidered socks only on gj"eat occasions. -New York Ledger.

Decoration of ltwtnen.

My advice to folk in doubt about the decoration of their homes would Ins to sit down quietly and think what their method of life Is going to be, but as I am told that "everyone does that," this process apparently precedes so many lamentable failures that evidently the first thing to IKS done is to help people to think by bringing to their uoticecertain important points for their consideration. In the first place, try and grasp the character of your rooms emphasise their beauties, and remember a great deal can be doue even with an eyenon if skilfully dealt with. Get your walls, ceilings and floors right to begin with.

S« many people buy some unimportant bit of furniture before any plan is fixed upon, and this wretched possession becomes ft» formidable as the spoiled child of a family .everything has to give way before It, its outlines direct those Itelonging to far more valuable furniture, the walls are brought into harmony with its color, and the room which becomes subservient to a freak of this sort is seldom a lasting pleasure to its occupant. IK not either give way to the modern craws for a "terra eotta," rt "mi" or a "blue room."

I utterly fail to tvcogitixe any art is! Ic taste iu the woman who runs about with a pattern of color, never ceasing in her endeavors until mufie stool, chairs, lounges, walls, curtains. lr:»jeries, nav, even picture frames, are one wearying repetition of the same shade.

well as you can, but sensibly, and always remember that after all a woman is judged more by her own worth than by the clothes she wears.—Edward W. Bok in Ladies' Home Journal.

Women of the Himalayas.

There is no seclusion of women In India, and great strapping girls dressed in the gaudiest of colors go about wi'£i flat plates of gold hanging to their ears, each of which is as big as a trade dollar. They have gold on their ankles and bracelets of silver running all the way from their wrists to their elbows. Their complexions, originally as yellow as those of the Chinamen, are bronzed by the crisp mountain air nntil they have now the rich copper color of the American Indian.

Both men and women look not unlike our Indians. They have the same high cheek bones, the same semi-fiat noses, and long, straight black hair. If you take the prettiest squaw you have ever seen yon may have a fair type of the average belle of the mountains. She wears two pounds of jewelry to the ounce of the squaw, however, and her eyes are brighter and she is far more intelligent.

She works just as hard, and the woman ol the Himalayas does much of the work at the mountains. I see women digging in the fields, working on the roads and carrying immense baskets, each of which holds from two to three bushels, full of dirt and produce on their backs.—Frank G. Carpenter's Letter.

Manual Training for Women. One of the most significant signs of the times is the progress being made in the manual training of women. The public School of Art for women at Bloomsbury, England, holds a high rank in its instruction in art and mathematics, and is en tirely in tbe bands of women professors. In South Kensington more pupils in proportion to their number carry off prizes in the yearly national competitions than in any other institution. In Belgium there is an Ecole Professional, numbering 770 pupils, and its object is to give women a thorough professional manual education simultaneously with theoretical teaching.

In Holland similar schools exist, which admit to their classes young girls of every rank in society, and not only teach every sort of handicraft suited to professional work, but also furnish excellent opportunities for liberal culture to those who do not need to make of art a means of support. In Denmark the professionally artistic education of vfomen is of a yet more advanced character, and the government school of decorativo art is attended by 130 women pupils, who are admirably trained to take up art in its various branches professionally.—New York Commercial Advertiser.

I'oiiUs About Stockings.

It is, in fact, a maxim among shoe dealers that a woman wearing a white stocking will want a cheap shoe, while black stockings and the best grade of shoes are naturally associated. Black is indeed tho fashionable color at this time to an unusual degree, but it is regarded with distrust by some purchasers on account of tho liability, real orsupposed, of fading. It is claimed by those who should know that the original washing may le so done as to prevent much of tho fadiu ^.

The formula is thus given: "Both cotton and woolen should always be washed before they are worn. Lay them all night to soak in cold water. Wash them next day by themselves in two waters, warm but not hot, the soap being previously rubbed Into the water so as to form a lather before the stockings are put in, and mixing with the first water a tablespoonful of gall. Then rinse them, first in lukewarm water, until tho dye ceases to como out and the bust water is colorless. Stretch them, and hang them out immediately in the air to dry as fast as possible."—Good Tlousekeeping, _______

Swimming Bath* for Children. It is now generally agreed that young children should not be taught to swim, as they are so susceptible to fatigue and cold and so generally impressionable. Up to two or three years, prolonged immersion in cold or even warm water is not safe. Much, however, depends on the temperament of the child in question if plucid, fearless and healthy he might occasionally be given a swimming lesson, but he should not remain in tho water at first more than six or eight minutes, nor should be be given a lesson ofteuer than once a week, or at most twice.

Should he show dread of the water and cry or struggle much, he should not, lie taken to it. a second time till the summer of the next year the most serious results might otherwise be the consequence. Should ho Ih cold after immersion, restless, or lose his appetite, that, too, would be an indication to l»e careful. A wise and thoughtful parent will lean/ as quickly as any doctor what the little fellow can or cannot safely bear.—ball's Journal of Health.

socio tiuie trouble in making bath ends meet. Expenses were high, and for a tune it looked as though he wou!d have to abandon thb enterprise to some one with more capital.

He held on, however, and after the tide tnrned made money rapidly. Then the poor man died, but his handsome widow carries on business at tbe same old stand, and is yearly laying away a snug sum, estimated all the way from twenty to thirty thousand dollars. She could marry any day,, but like most women with money fears to wed a fortune seeker.—Cor. Chicago Herald.

Hints for Domestic Use.

Do not put soap in the water with which ydu clean a mirror, it is almost impossible to polish tbe glass if soap is used.

Add two tablespoon!uls of kerosene to the pail of water with which you wash grained or other varnished furniture.

Hands may be kept smooth in cold weather by avoiding the use of warm water. Wash them with cold water and soap.

Tar can easily be removed from clothing by immediately rubbing it well with clean lard and then washing out with warm water and soap.—New York Telegram.

A Cheap Substitute for Silk. Most women will be gratified to learn that the ingenious Mr. Nayemura Saknsaboro, a Japanese druggist, has succeeded, a(ter many years of experiment, in converting wild hemp into a fabric indistinguishable from silk. It id said that a trial of the hempen thread has been made at Beveral silk weaving establishments in Kioto and elsewhere with excellent results, the web having the luster, beauty, softness and more than the durability of silk, while, as the plant grows .wild, its tissue will be much cheaper than the slow and costly product of the silk worm.—Harper's Bazar.

Paste Thin In the Pantry.

Salt eaten with nuts aids digestion. Milk which stands too long makes bitter butter.

The surest way to have clear jelly is to let the juice drain through a flannel bag, without squeezing it.

If you wish your silk pocket handkerchiefs to remain all the year around as good as new wash them in salt and water before using them.

Keep a little beeswax tied up in a cloth to rub your flatirons with, and you will find that even a white shirt to be done up will soon become a pleasant work.—Exchange. _______

Worth the Stndy.

A little careful study will enable any woman to tell tbe really good from the inferior china. The bargain counter in the china departments of the dry goods stores offer very little that would not be dear at any price. Yet to the uninitiated the plates for nineteen cents compare very favorably with those that cost $1 or 13 each. One can never know too much, and knowledge of this kind is worth acquiring. Every housekeeper takes great pride in having her china closet well filled, and with careful expenditure 4100 or $200 will give her a good stock.—New Yojrk Telegram. ______

References Required. ik

And now a servant girl society hatf^ieh organized in Gotham for the protection of mistress and maid. The society demands that each servant on leaving her mistress shall leave behind her a "reference" of "character." The reference shall state whether the mistress has been mild tempered or severe, liberal or "prudent," subject to "company" or not, etc. The mistress also gives a reference. In this way both parties are suited, neither is imposed upon, and the world wags harmoniously on.—New York World.

A Female Athlete..v.

Mrs. H. E. Burmeyer, of New York, is an unusually accomplished athlete. She walks thirty miles at an outing, at a pace of three miles and a half an hour makes a day's journey on a bicycle on rough roads without resting, climbs mountain peaks with neatness and dispatch, is a long distance skater, au excellent swimmer, a dexterous aad powerful canoeist, a sculler and rower who might compete with a college crew, and a gymnast who lifts 525 pounds of iron when out of practice and 626 when at her best. Withal she has abounding health.—Harper's Bazar.

.Some Uses for Mo rax.

Sprinkle places infested by ants with borax and you will soon be rid of them. Blankets and furs put away well sprinkled with borax and done up air tight will never be troubled with moths.

A little borax put in the water before washing red or red bordered tablecloths or napkins will prevent their fading.

Ringworms will yfisld to borax treatment. Apply a strong solution three times a day also dust on the fine dry powder very often.—Exchange.

Woman'* Worst Enemy.

The worst physical enemy woman has ever had he been the narrowness of life which gave her so little to think of that she bad endless time for worry. She gains in physical force with every step she takes toward intellectuality and spirituality. Nor docs she harden her heart towanl humanity and despise the home. Tbe whole question of the home, instead of being ignored, is being treated with scientific care and unsparing devotion.—The Cbaittauqunn. ______

WOMAN'S HOME DUTIES.

THE TRUE SPHERE OF THE WIFE IS IN THE FAMILY CIRCLE. iSP'f'-ir* .... iJi

The Stndy of Becoming Good Wife and Mother Is Paramount to All Other Considerations—The Opinion of a Chicago Woman on the Subject.

Concerning the true sphere of woman there will probably never be anything like perfect agreement. Even if its demarkations should ever be settled to the satisfaction of everybody the achievement would be short lived, Jjecause the women would not remain in the sphege thus mapped out. They would be out or trying to get out before twenty-four hours had passed, and the question would be reopened but although this is true it does not follow that attempts to ascertain the true place and duties of woman in social, industrial and political life should be abandoned, or that the many men and women who have interested themselves in this subject and are striving to reach results beneficial to humanity shonld be discouraged. As well might it be claimed that a person should stop'studying because it is impossible for him to become omniscient, or cease paying heed to sanitary laws because he never can enjoy perfect health.

Woman's duties and privileges in the family, in the community, in the state what should be her relations to her husband and children, to the woman next door what partshe should take in making and administering laws and in the earning of bread—all these are questions which will be discussed as long as mankind exists. And the discussion must prove fruitful of good results, for without it the development of woman's sphere cannot keep pace with that of man, and cannot harmonize with a progressive civilization. In the agitation of what is loosely termed the woman question the women themselves have taken the lead. Many of them have given far greater thought to the subject than have men, and in consequence their views are entitled to especial consideration.

WHAT A WOMAN THINKS.

To some phases of tho woman question Mrs. S. M. Nickerson, of this city, has given considerable thought, and upon them she holds ideas which her friends think are pretty sound. "There are so many subjects," she said, "that are of special interest to women, young and old, rich and poor, which are almost neglected by the press that I am often amazed. How a woman can make her social and family duties harmonize, how manage so that they will not clash, is a perplexing question, and one the failure to understand which causes a vast amount of trouble and unhappiness in the world. It is a question upon which tho press might enlighten the*people, and thus do much good. My idea is that harmonizing social and family duties rests very largely on the exercise of tact. "I'll illustrate: Let us suppose the lady in question has a family of three children growing up, and of course a husband. Again let me suppose she is as fond of her family as she ought to be, so that she is unwilling to intrust the task of catering to the maintenance of the health, comfort and education of her children entirely to strangers. No more docs she wish to have her husband's taste*, likes and dislikes trodden upon by unreliable servants. "She, therefore, controls the household and its various needs by constant and care ful personal supervision, and this of necessity takes up much of her time and thought. She must, however, obtain reliable and intelligent help—a woman, perhaps best a widow, on whose discretion and zeal she may rely during her short but frequent absences from homo. For all this she must retain active control of her own house. Her judgment must be appealed to on all matters of any importance, and nothing must be do^e about the house without her consen t.

ENTERTAINING AT HOME.

"Having thus arranged matters on the inside this lady must choose a circle of social intimates for herself and family. Tbe smaller the circle the better for her in every way, especially for her comfort. In this matter, too, she must consult the wishes and tastes of her husband, and she must try to include among her intimates some of different qualities, mental and social, so that there will be displayed fine manners and brilliant conversational powers, wit and humor and artistic tastes—all blended together. In this way she will obtain for her own entertainments, and she will enjoy at entertainments given at the houses of her own social intimates, the aggregate of all that makes society worth cultivating. "She will thus be sure to suit not only her own taste but also that of her husband and of every invited guest, for there will be congenial people for every one of them, Then she must restrict her social duties within reasonable bounds, and as,she has been careful to limit the circle of her acquaintances and friends, she is easily able to do that. She will have enough time left every day to devote herself to her maternal and wifely duties without in any way neglecting those Imposed upon'her by the demands of society. Then, as to entertaining. That is an art which needs to be studied a lifetime to be understood, and above all it needs natural qualifications for it. "Generally speaking, though it may be stated- as an axiom that small parties ranging in number between ten and twenty are tbe rr.ost delightful, many epicures in social intercourse even maintain that tbe number of the muses ought never to be exceeded. Add to your entertainment the spice of novelty, securing now and then a valuable attraction such as a distinguished foreigner, a scientific man of note, a great traveler tor nn artist or literary man of celebrity, so that there is something beside the ordinary mental food to whet tbe appetite of your guest."— Chicago Herald.

A Bnslne.ss Woman.

In 1848 Mrs. M. T. Hollander,-of Boston, her wits being sharpened by the necessity of earning a living for herself and hex little ones, conceived the idea of making and selling ready made clothing for children, which before that time could not be bought at all. irurnishing only good material and honeait workmanship, with excellent taste and judgment, she secured an immediate clientage, and gradually built up one of the largest and soundest businesses of its kind (for it was copied at once) in the country, "Hollander's" being the symbol of elegant and exclusive fashions. Beside being an excellent financier, afar seeing- manufacturer and a successful designer, Mrs. Hollander was a philanthropist, giving thought, labor and time to all reforms, but especially to the cause of the advancement and education of women. And when she died, not very long ago, she bequeathed to her children not only a fortune, earned by her unaided capacity, but a reputation for ability, honesty and benevolence such as few women have had the opportunity to win.—Harper's Bazar.

Woman's Rest.

When you aro so tired as to feel "ready to drop" sit down, comb your hair and change your shoes. This will rest the head and feet and give new strength for the work which at house cleaning and moving time refuses to be postponed. That lying down ten minutes will rest one much more than sitting down has to be reiterated often for the benefit of those ambitious women who sometimes scorn to rest in this way during the day time, and others who fear that it will be known to their discredit if they so indulge themselves.

I once heard Mrs. Lincoln talk upon this topic, and I wish every farmer's wife might have heard the woman who had made housekeeping a study tell how to get rest enough to insure health. It was the wisdom, not of the theorist, but of one who had so nearly overworked as to have found it needful to study means of making housekeeping possible without slowly killing'the housewife.—New England Farmer.

New Use for Bnttermllk.

Dr. Stanley M. Ward states that he has found fresh buttermilk very serviceable in relieving vomiting of various forms, even at times the vomiting of pregnancy. The remedy is administered ice cold, in dos& of about half a tcaspoonful, repeated every fifteen or twenty minutes. In tho case of children with cholera infantum he has often succeeded in quieting the stomach by interdicting everything else, and using a few drops of fresh ice cold buttermilk at intervals varying in length according to the severity of the case.—New York Commercial Advertiser.

Insurance an Excellent Field for Women. In this enlightened age, when woman is seeking employment in most of the avenues formerly open only to men, she seems to have overlooked almost entirely the field of life insurance. In science, politics and social reform in all its numerous departments, she is to be found plodding bravely along side by side with the oppo site sex, earning not only her own doily bread, but perchance that of an invalid father and mother as well, while her voice is not as yet heard above a whisper in tho line of work for which she is specially adaoted.—Housewife.
