WOMAN AND HOME.

SOME OF THE THINGS WHICH GOTO MAKE THE IDEAL HOME.

Women a* Physicians The Sleeping Boom—Brooklyn Women—Economy in the Family—Treatment for Sprain*.

How Her I-ove for Reading Wan Started.

If one's home Is fair and line, with soft carpets, rugs, pictures, marbles, china, with gentle service, luxurious living, loving children, gracious wife, should all the blessings that these things give, even if one is the apparent source of them himself, has gathered and secured them by close effort and self denial, be kept to one's self alone, like the bone the dog gnaws and buries till he can come back to it? It is not privacy and seclusion that give a home its •acred ness. Far from it. It is Its happiztesH, its healthiness, its helpfulness, its capacity to do good, to impart that happiness and healthiness, its power of lifting all the rest of the world into its own atmosphere.

Those homes that are open to the homeless are the sacred ones the homes where there is always a pillow for the weary, always a spare place at the table for the wanderer the homes whose beauty is shed abroad like the gracious dew from heaven that Portia talked about. There may be many mansions in heaven, but he who thinks they are mansions from which every other heavenly habitant is excluded has made a mistake in the place it would irot bo heaven then.

However we may dispute and declare that a man has a right to be undisturbed in his own house, yet we know in our inner consciousness that we all regard the man who brings another homo to dinner sure of a cordial greeting for him there who will not let the stranger find his welcome in an inn on a holiday when homes are dearest who throws open his house to the parish, whose lights are always shining and inviting as you go by his windows, a/jrosa whose doorstep guefts are often coming and going who loves his home so much and finds it so complete that he must have other people to love it, too, and if they have nothing half so choice, then share some brief portion of it with them— that man wo all know to be a good citizen. a husband honoring his wife, a Christian in deed whatever he may bo in faith, and withal a gentleman.—Harper's Bazar.

Women as Physicians.

I do not hesitate to say, with due deference to the judgment of others, that in my opinionj|it is important to the well being of society that the study of medicine by Christian women should be continued and extended. The prejudice that allows women to enter the profession of nursing and excludes them from the profession of medicine cannot be too strongly censured, and its existence can bo explained only by the force of habit.

It has been urged that women do not as a rule possess the intellectual powers of men, but their ability to pursue the usu.tl medical studies has been sufficiently demonstrated, and it is admitted, even by those who coneodo to men a higher order of intellect and greater powers of rat iocinat ion, that what women may lack in that direction seems to be supplied by that logical instinct with which they have been endowed by God. It is evident also that if female nurses nmj with propriety attend men as well as women, that privilege eaunot reasonably be withheld from the female physician, Iudeed the positiou of the "nurse might.

IKS

regarded as open to much

graver objections, inasmuch as tho physidnn makes but a transient visit to the patient, while tho nurse occupies the sick room day and night.

The attendance of female physicians upon women is often of incalculable benefit. Much serious and continued suffering is undergone by women, and many beginnings of gravo illness are neglected because of tho senso of dolicacy which prevents them from submitting to the professional services of men. There is also an infinite number of cases, known to all who have been concerned in charitable or reformatory work, in which no influence or assistance can 1)0 so effectual as that of ft physician who is also a woman and a Christian.

Tho alleviation of suffering for women of all classes which would result from the presence among us of an adequate number of well trained female physicians cannot but bo evident to all but I wish to emphasize as strongly as possiblo the moral influence of such a body, than which there could be no more potent factor in the moral regeneration of society. Cardinal Gibbons in Century.

The Sleeping Uooiu.

Whatever your room is, and however it is furnished, be sure of one thing—that it is clean when you come to go to bed in it. Don't have dirty water standing in the wash basin or slop bowl. Don't leave dirty clothes in tho room, unless it is unavoidable, and then put them in the closet Of a bureau drawer. Always, even in the coldest weather, open tho window a crack. If you are liable to colds you can fence off a draught by hanging a shawl or extra blanket over a chair in front of the window. This is totter than a folding screen, because it is not so large or high, and the air has freer itigrrets. These remarks may M«m unnecessary, but I have known some very nice people—like Heechcr's Airs. Prim —who were the reverse of nice in their own chambers.

Some folks sleep in dens—literally unaired dens—where the windows are never opened and where the sun never comes. Ypp, and about that same sun. Shall its light be allowed to waken the morning sleeper or shall the blinds be fast closed? This, as a rale, would depend on what hoar you rise. If you get up at 5, it will be well taough to leave the windows unshaded, for the sun is a splendid alarm clock, only failing on rainy days. The majority of people, however, would do better to clone the blinds on retiring.—Edith Mi niter in Horoemaker.

Brooklyn Women.

Brooklyn is, iu a quiet way, the center of a pretty strong movement looking to the •emancipat ion of women ftotn various so dal conventions, yet hardly leading up to the ambitions of the so called strong minded women. The Sekll society, whose immediate object is the intelligent study and (Hojorment of music, is extremely strong In Brooklyn, and oae of its incidental outgrowths is a marked sentiment against the convention that forbids ytmag wamen to attend public entertainments at night without mak escorts.

sufth matters are impetuous young women, who are short haired neither in fact nor in deportment, but simply every day girls, to whom the wish and the opportunity have come of doing some other things than the narrowly social duties that fill up the lives of most women.—New York Star. pr

A Pretty Girl's Kindly AefcF^

It was a crowded Detroit street cat. At the corner of Duane street an infirm old lady signaled the driver to stop. Reluctantly he put on the break and would have passed by had he half an excuse for so doing. The conductor rather roughly and hurriedly helped the octogenarian into the car. When the knight of the punch called for her fare she felt in the corner of her mitten for a nickeL By the expression on her face everybody in the car knew the money was gone. Men immediately became intensely interested in newspapers and women were looking every way but at the embarrassed old lady, whose kind and good face evinced pain.

The conductor was about to speak when a bright schoolgirl, probably 14 years old, walked from the end of the car and laying a five cent piece in the conductor's dirty band, said, "If my mother should ever be placed in the same position as this old lady I hope some one will be just enough to do what I am doing." The remark was a womanly one, and a Joan of Arc couldn't have said braver words. The blush of shame mantled the cheeks of every male in the car, and the most of them lived, or bad occasion to get off, at the next crossing. The old lady did not thank the little woman verbally for her kindness, as her heart and eyes were too full to speak. She simply pressed the girl's hand and gave her a look of gratitude that spoke more forcibly than words ever could.— Cleveland Star.

Economy in a Family.

There is nothing which goes so far toward placing young people beyond the reach of poverty as economy in the management of their domestic affairs. It matters not whether a man furnish little or much for his family if there is a oontinual leakage in the kitchen or in the parlor. It is the husband's duty to bring into the house, and it is the duty of the wife to see that nothing goes wrongfully out of it—not the least article, however unimportant in itself, for it establishes a precedent—nor under any pretense, for it opens the door for ruin to stalk in, and he seldom leaves an opportunity unimproved. The husband's interest should be the wife's care, and her greatest ambition should carry her no farther than his welfare or happiness, together with that of her children.

This should be her sole aim and the theatre of her exploits in the bosom of her family, where she may do as much toward making a fortune as he can in the counting room or in the workshop. It is not the money earned that makes a man wealthy —it is what he saves from his earnings. A good and prudent husband makes a deposit of tho fruits of his labor with his best friend, and if that friend be not true to him what has he to hope? If he dare not place confidence in the companion of his bosom where is he to place it?—New York Ledger.

Mrs. Jerome's Sideboard. S

Jerome's wife has wanted a sideboard for some time, and keeping in mind the encouraging motto of "all things come to him that waits," she has waited and waited, and us her faith in this good old saying has been much weakened by this waiting she finally decided to accept & substitute, and went to a furniture factory and bought the lower part of a soft wood bureau in the white. It had three drawers. The top one she had divided a la the regulation sideboards and lined with canton flannel. Six antique brass draw pulls were purchased, and a can of prepared stain, which transformed the plebeian soft wood bureau into an antique oak sideboard.

Over this she put one of the hanging bookshelves which can be bought anywhere for from fifty to seventy-five cents. It fastened with hooks to the wall, so was perfectly secure. This was finished with the same stain. Shall brass hooks were put in front of otie shelf to hang her pretty after dinner coffee cups on, and filled the shelves with odd and pretty things in china. One of her drawn work linen covers was laid on the top of the bureau, and when her wedding gifts of silver and glass were arranged on this you would never stop to think that this was a common bureau masquerading as a Lonis

A Regular Allowance.

One method would be the granting to the wife of a stated weekly or monthly allowance, for the household and other uses, in proportion to the income of the husband. To the man who says, "But I cannot pay my wife like aservant," the answer must be, "Certainly not." She is a partner, and as such is entitled to a share in the dividends. To the end that she may make the best use of such moneys she should know what she is to expect each week. Undoubtedly the ideal remedy is perfect trust, confidence and a higher moral development for both men and women, but while mankind is moving steadily on to this the weaker must not be always going to the wall for the lack of a protecting hand.

No woman ought to marry without having some understanding with her future husband on this point. She need not take pencil and paper and make him set down the exact figures of her weekly allowance, but should let him thoroughly understand that she expects one. Any young girl should beware of the man who considers women irresponsible creatures for, no matter how tender and considerate the master may be, no enlightened human being Is happy as a slave,—Alice E. Ives in Forum.

Crawfish axe regularly brought to our markets from as far west as Milwaukee, and from brooks in northern New York. American housekeepers, as a rale, however, do not like to use them, because, they are rather unpleasantly suggestive when seen in a wriggling mass. If this prejudice is once overcome, remembering that they are nothing more than fresh water lobsters, yon will learn to become fond of them in the soup.—Boston Globe.

Treatment for Sprains.

Sprains are among the most severe accidents to which we are liable. When a joint is sprained swelling comes on gradually. In dislocation the swelling and loss of motion of the joint happen immediately after the accident. A sprained limb should be kept perfectly quiet. Says a trained nurse: "To prevent inflammation use poultices of wormwood, hops or tansy. Every effort on the part of the patient to repeat in detail the cause of the accident, the sensations, experiences, etc., should be discouraged. Cheerful conversation upon other subjects and perfect rest will bring about spe&dy recovery and strengthen all concerned In the belief that it is not alwayB necessary to send .for the doctor."—Herald of Health.

How Her Love for Reading Was Started.

Mrs. Sarah Cowell Le Moyne, the successful Browning reader, led a romping outdoor life as a child, and it was not until she broke her arm in a hoidenish escapade, when she was about twelve years old, that she developed any facility in acquiring book knowledge. The perusal of a chapter in the Bible daily was imposed upon her as a penalty for her tomboy tendencies by her mother, and from this the girl gained the taste for reading and love for literature which culminated in her choice of a profession. Her fondness for

A Postage Stamp Basket.

Then crochet the sides shell stitch. Make it gently flaring, like a peach basket, and of a height to correspond with the bottom.,

With gold or silver paint go over the whole carefully, taking special pains td preserve the open work effect.

Patting on Gloves.

To be wall gloved is a Frenchwoman's pride, and well dressed Americans will not deny the importance of this finishing touch to the toilette but one point they often forget—that much of the fit of a glove depends upon the way it is put on.

The wrist portion should be turned over below the open before being drawn on the hand, the fingers put on straight, and then patiently and carefully each one pressed down to the extreme points. Twisted fingers ruin the appearance of any gloves. —Dry Goods Economist.

The sarcastic woman soon degenerates into an habitual detractor. Mention whom you may, she immediately bristles into aotion and oovers your words of merited praise with something derogatory. Detraction is the twin of sarcasm when the

latter

power is abused. Far better to remain forever silent than to withhold from any human being the meed of praise so hardly earned in our busy world.

The best dressed woman in the world is said t^be Queen Margherita of Italy. Her wardrobe includes a countless variety of elegant costumes, and she seldom wears a dress more than once. Like the thrifty woman that she'is, she sells her scarcely worn costumes, and the buyers are very glad to get them, even at the high prices which are charged for them.

Boast or boiled potatoes should never be served in a covered dish. The steam which escapes from the potato, having no way of evaporation, becomes moisture and soaks back into the potato, making it wet and sodden. While waiting to serve the potatoes oover tho-dish with a napkin.

The late Emma Abbott carried her most valuable jewels constantly with her, secured in a petticoat pocket. A great many wealthy women out of the profession do the same thing. The chamois pocket is the underskirt is a favorite jewel bag, and Is often made use of in traveling.

Mrs. Mary C. Shaw, of Pittsburg, Pa., left her fortune to promote the study of American archaeology and ethnology. The will provides that the income of the property, about $1,500 a year, shall go to Miss Alice C. Fletcher as long as she lives to assist her in her researches among the Indians.

Hie success of a hostess is mainly dependant upon her tact, for with a deft wind or tmsbecan turn the current of conversation into *i™«t««i« where ail dangerous duals can be avoided. She can put a tiznid guest at his ease, draw people out and make them feel at home.

LITTLK GIRLS COSTUMES.

Children's evening and party dresses are very dainty, and there is a picturesque simplicity expressed even in the more cost iy

costumes. The dresses here sketched are for evening wear. One is a pretty frock made of alight woolen fabric for a girl ten or twelve. The bouice has a smocked silk vest and is trimmed with a little hand embroidery.

A convenient novelty just introduced, which appeals to both sexes, is a silver case for elevated railroad, bridge, ferry and car tickets. This case is of such shape and aiy.a that it can be slipped into the vest pocket or may be worn from the watch chain. It is instantaneously operated by a thumb slide, which throws the ticket into the hand. The beauty of this arrangement is that it can be worked without removing the glove or even taking the case from the pocket.

Valuable Instruction In the Art of Cleaning Fine Old Lace. .',,f

Clean very fine lace with benzine.' If old and crazy pin it smooth on a flannel covered board, saturate it with benzine and press it out with a soft napkin. Put make up lace—collars, handkerchiefs, caps and so on—into glass or earthenware, and pour benzine over tfcsm with a liberal hand. Whirl them rapidly about in it, squeeze gently, drop iato a clean vessel and put on fresh fluid. It will remove 3very particle of dirt, without in any way altering the yellow antique hue or shrinking the mesh—as water will do, no matter how carefully applied.

The Decorator and Furnisher, which gives the foregoing directions, explains that point lace is never washed be twist maker and wearer. If it gets soiled in working white lead in powder is put on to whiten it. Gas, sea air, or a dozen other things would make the lead turn dark, or ruin a costly bit of cobweb in which the owner takes delight. Benzine will remove it without harm. After tho lace comes out of it, pin it as smoothly as possible upon a linen covered board, and put it in the sunshine for six hours. If you wish to whiten it let dew fall on it and be dried away by the sun for a week or two.

If pressed for time tho bleaching may bo accomplished in a day by wetting the cloth with weak soapsuds every two hours and pinning the lace over it. If you are careful to draw it tight it will hardly show that it has been dampened. If you are not, the meshes will contract perceptibly. It is something to be handled daintily from first to last. In wearing never pull or drag roughly into place. Sew it only with fine thread and needles. Above all, pin it with small sharp pins, if pin it you must. Crushed flower stalks often leave ugly stains well nigh indelible wherefore, beware how you wear them against your lace.

Two Good Plus.,

Cocoanut Pie—One grated cocoanut, one pound of sugar, half a pound of butter and six eggs. Beat the sugar and butter as for cake, then mix in the eggs and cocoanut. Bake with bottom crust only. This quantity makes three pies.

Lemon Custard Pie—The juice and grated rind of two lemons, half a teacupful of butter, four spoonfuls of cream, six eggs, three cupfuls of sugar and half a pint of milk. Beat the lemons, yelks and butter together, then add the sugar, whites and cream. The quantity makes three pies.

Two Rooms Thrown Into One.

Our sketch represents a very artistio and satisfactory arrangement for throwing two small rooms, connected by fo! ling doors, into one room. The folding doors can be taken entirely away, and replaced with the graceful archway here illustrated. This is in white enameled wood, the upper part being filled in with fretwork, and will be appropriate where the woodwork, furniture, paper and upholstery are in light and cheerful styles.

CONNECTING ARCHWAT.

In one instance where a similar screenlike affair was put in between two rooms, it was in handsome walnut, to correspond with book cases and over mantels in the larger room, and the upper part was filled in with stained glass.

Hints for tliu Comfort of Caned Hlrdi. The feet of caged birds need particular attention, for they are very susceptible to disease and injury. If through neglect they have become incrusted with dirt, hold them in lukewarm water for four or live minutes each day till the dirt .softens and drops off. If they are sore and inflamed, first bathe them as directed and then gently anoint with unsalted butter or sweet cream. The claws of a canary should be clipped occasionally.' By holding them up to the liyht the ends of the blood vessels can be distinguished, and great care should be taken not to trim so closcly as to cut into them.

Roughness of the feathers u:irl gri-at ap petite accompanied with wasting of the flesh is often" tlie result of errors in diet, feeding too much sugar, etc., for which watercress is considered a very good remedy.

As a cure for lice, supply the cage daily with clean, fresh sand mixed with a little crushed aniseseed. At night partly cover the cage with flannel, burn the flannel in the morning, and after a few days the lica will all disappear.

If birds do not bathe of their own aocord sprinkle them each morning wiEh a little water, and after a time they will learn to bathe. ..:

Decorations for a Stylish Wedding

The floral decorations for a recent New York wedding are thus described in The Florist's Exchange: An awning ten feet in length was used in the parlor, under which the couple stood during the marriage ceremony. Smilax, large chrysanthemums, Mermet roses and pink ribbon were used. An old fashioned shed or danopy, as called by some, was hung over the family table. This consisted entirely of smilax and large yellow chrysanthemums. In addition two five foot crescent shaped wreath.*, made of La France roses, and broad sas.i ribbon* corresponding to the colors were used in the back parlor.

In the front parlor was a ouncn oi flowers, five feet in length, of American Beauties, and yellow roses on the mirrors also two frames, six by fire feet, against the wall, made of ivy leaves, Beauty rosea and yellow chrysanthemums. In the hall, against the mirrors, was a three foot wreath entirely of bright red carnations, and a deep ted ribbon at the base. At the foot of the stairs was a newel post or column, from the floor to the ceiling, twelve feet in 5 UW* ww fright Smilax was used to cover the moss, and finished off with American beauty and yellow chrysanthemums. The price paid for these decorations is left to the imagination of thereader.
