AMERICAN WOMEN BREAK DOWN.

Too Much Striving After an Object That In Itoatly Not Worth the Effort. It has been frequently asserted that although our American women are fair in their youth, they do not wear well, that their beauty departs early and at an age when the English and Frenchwoman is in Jher prime the American woman is faded. Her complexion has lost the scft flush of youth and has acquired neither a deeper and more perfect bloom nor that equally beautiful statuesque pallor that comes with matured years. She is wrinkled and looks careworn at an age when her European sister is at tlie height of her womanly loveliness, and often, before she is fifty, she Is a broken down old woman full of reminiscences of the past. This is especially true if the woman of small income. Among farmers it is estimated that on the average one husband outlives three wives.

It is impossible to estimate how much of the nervous, restless energy exhibited by such women, which surely and inevitably saps their vitality, may arise from a tireless ambition to achieve a certain social distinction for themselves or their children —a wish for something better than they have known, not a purer heart or a more cultured mind, but a more "stunning" dress and a lurger display of plush in the parlor. How many women yearly give up their lives for such shallow ends as these!

The European woman as a rule makes no attempt to rival neighbors with four times her income. The Frenchwoman by her superior economy and tact makes a more elegant appearance and sets a more refined table than an American woman would on double the sum. The very prodigality of nature in this broad land seems to render the people prodigal of their means. Economy that works spasmodically, that "saves at the spigot and lets out at the bunghole," is certainly most miserable folly. The women who practice, as too mauy of them do, petty economies, whicti break down the health, and who spend their strength with lavish hand, Deed the warning of the rough old proverb.

It is a woman's duty above all things, if Bhe is a worker, to save her strength. She must systematize her work. Haphazard work is the hardest work. The stopping and starting up again expends the greatest energy of the machines. To make a success of any work in life, even of the simple work of the housewife, one must not allow the reins to drop. Rest must be taken, but It must be systematic rest. What tires the heart is the continuous and erratic drudging frqm one thing to another.

A recent paragraph calls attention to the case of a woman well known in the Working world who was barely saved from brain fever by the most strenuous efforts of her physicians. Yet not long before this sho had said to her physician: "I worked fourteen hours a day and yet rose In the morning refreshed after sleep. It is only recently that I have not slept." The physician replied: "The very fact that von felt, no weariness from such protracted ^and continuous work showed the amount of vital force that you were daily expending. Seven hours of steady mental labor are all that any one has aright to expect." —•New York Tribune.

How Girls Look at Domestic Sorvlce. While waiting for change in one, of our stores I heard two young girls discussing their view of the servant girl question. "I never roll my sleeves up no matter what I am doing. It looks so much like a servant." "Neither do 1, and my mother don't. She flon't want to have us look like servants." Poor girls! They would prefer to have the trials—the danger—incident to such a life, with thq small weokly pittance, possibly Bpending all their scanty earnings to make themselves look as attractive as possible, with the thoughts in their hearts—which they are trained to secretly cherish—that they might have homes of their own, and the majority of thoso girls are moro sincere than their tempters are willing to let their consciences persuade them, but the idea of being a servant is so repugnant that the* mother and the daughter in their owu homes are deterred from habits of cleanliness by tho dread of looking "like a servant."

Here, it seems to me, lies the keynote of tho evil. Domestic service is counted low —degraded—not worthy of the best thought of the greatest minds. There is science of the stars, science of music, science of plants, science of shells—science reaching to the invisible animalcul® in tho deep Boa, but the principles pertaining to skillful and economic preparation of food, systematic purchase of supplies and accounts, cleanliness and arrangement of the house, Intelligent care of children, simplo remedies and laws of health—these common things, affecting so nearly the life and happiness of every man, woman and child are deemed too insignificant to be made the subject of cspeciar study and careful preparation.

Ail lines of man's work are equipped for training in skill and proficiency, and those who wish attainments bringing honor and profit »»uet seek them through those avenues. The result is that what is most appropriately man's work and what is purely mechanical In woman's work are overcrowded, while the homes suffer and the happiness of families is destroyed for lack of intelligent, trained workers.—Chicago Tribune,

Take Plenty of Best.

'•Rest a plenty, dear," is the southern woman's advice in cases of trouble or Illness, and there Is more reason and sense in the prescription than in the united wisdom of all the doctors in America. Half the ills of feminine flesh and spirit may be laid at the door of strain and over fatigue, and an afternoon of perfect repose will often ward off a week's illness. By repose I don't mean sitting in an easy chair with a book or some work, to be interrupted and made to jump up half a down times, with hands and brain jtsst as active as if yon were about your business. No lie ptone -oo a comfortable sofa or bed, with corset and boots removed and a light wrap thromi over you: have the room a bit darkened, and think aboot tbcpleasantest things yon can conjure up. Follow the eaaunple of the lower animals. They realize that rest and warmth are the very best medicines.

If a dog is ailing he rolls himself up in a 'hall in some warm corner and stays there till he feels better. The biped teaes the instinct of the lower animal, fames, Cret*, take* stimulants and medicaments and does not give tha recuperative forces of uton a chapoa. Rest w«y now and Hhw, even If there Is nothing abnintaly iprrong with yon. It will main yon tottty,

and to a real womanly woman beauty, or at least attractiveness, is as well worth working for as anything on earth, and she can't help being attractive if she is healthy, not even if her hair is red, her nose a pug and her face covered with freckles. Her eyes will be bright, her hair glossy, L-«3r skin expressive with the quick flow and flush of generous blood. She will be amiable, quick and spontaneous with her laugh, always ready to take a hand in any work or play that is on, and slow, yes, very slow, to take offense.—New TarkPn-.gf: &

Colored Women In Journalism. Very surprising is the fact that a number of colored women are employed in journalism. Those who ought to knowtell me that they make very good reporters and correspondents. Professor Mary V. Cook, A. B., whose pen name is Grace Ermine, is a well known newspaper writer She has done good work for The American Baptist, the South Carolina Tribune and Our Women and Children. Mrs. W. E. Mathews (Victoria Earle) has written for nearly every New York daily and many of the leading weeklies.

Mrs. Lucy Wilmot Stoith is also a well known writer. So is Miss Lillian A. Lewis, who at one time edited the Boston Advocate. Mrs. Lucretia N. Colemap is another colored woman who has found pleasant and profitable work in journalism. So is Miss Georgia Mabel de Baptiste, and Miss Kate D. Chapman writes verses that have attracted the attention of some of our forentost critics.

There is a large list of others: Mrs. Josephine T. Washington, Mrs. C. C. Stumm,. Miss A. L. Telgman, who is the publisher of The Musical Messenger Mrs. N. Mossell, Mrs. Ida B. Wells, Miss lone E. Woods, Miss Livina B. Sneed, Miss Mary E. Brellon, Miss Meta E. Pelham, Mrs. Francis E. W. Harper and Mrs. A. E. Johnson and others. That they should have found profit and at least local fame in this most exacting profession, is a tribute to the worth of the race in general and in particular to the women who have dared and triumphed at work that is most difficult even to strong men who are mentally well endowed.—Foster Coates in New York Mail and Express.

Weak Babies.

Feeble infants part with animal heat verv readily, hence special care must be taken not to chill the skin. Mothers or nurses do not always exercise proper care in this respect. A baby will be. kept uncovered until its lips and finger tips are blue, and thus lose a certain amount of vitality. Delicate babies should not be bathed daily in winter, and great pare should always bo taken to avoid chilling. Add a tablespoonful of salt and a tablespoonful of alcohol to a basin of tepid water, which is deftly applied to body and limbs without uncovering the child. Next rub the whole body with the warm hand until aglow is produced. This may be followed by inunctions of oil—soft, white vaseline makes a good application—after which the clothing is put on.

Ordinary sweet oil or cod liver oil may likewise be employed with good results, The objection to the latter is the disagreeable smell. The application of oil softens the skin, which is apt to be dry in badly nourished infants, and a certain amount is absorbed, producing a tonic effect. Some children are benefited by rubbing with a dry salt towel. This is produced by soaking an ordinary bath towel in a basin of salt and water, after which it is partially rinsed out and hung on a clothesline until all the water, has evaporated. The fine dry salt then penetrates all tho meshes of the towel and acts as a stimulant to the skin. In bad cases the towel may be first warmed before the fire.—Babyhood.

Should Children Be Chastised? The question whether children should be chastised is a subject on which parents greatly disagree. In many families the father shows his belief in the Scriptural injunction, "Spare tho rod and spoil the child," by chastising his children for the slightest fault. On the other hand, the mother often subordinates tho impulse to punish to the impulse of love.

As a mother I consider that children should not be punished except for deliberate misdeeds. Many a child is severely whipped because at tho breakfast table, perhaps, she has upset the milk jug or in tho course of play has unconsciously stepped upon her baby brother's fingers. In such cases it is cruel to punish the child. A child cannot exercise the care that elders do, and even tho elder members of jv family are responsible for mishaps of the same kind,

I am largely in favor of moral suasion. I believe that a mother, by the judicious use of words, can obtain a greater influence over her children than if she whipped them on every possible occasion. A child who is frequently punished grows up nervous and unlovable. Sho has no inclination to obey her parents except from fear of the rod, and I do not think it is a wholesome thing that fa rod should be constantly poised over her head, ready to descend for the slightest fault.—Cor. London Tit-Bits.

How to XJve with Others.

The only way to make the world abetter place to live in is for each individual to make himself abetter person to live with. How to live with others is therefore the great question for the decision of every human being. In its answer is involved the solution of the problems which vex the social philosophers, and to enable men to settle it is the prime object of Cristianity.

If we begin with the application of the rule to the simplest routine of daily existence the extension of it to all the rules of life will become easier. The most trying place in which to start is the home, the family itself, and yet the home is the great school of manners and for the education of the heart. The very certainty of responsive family affection may easily develop disregard for the restraints and requirements of the wholesome rule. It is using a dangerous license to assume that because this affection is natural, and is tolerant, forgiving and charitable, it cannot be abused, and that a carelessness in the treatment of others which would be intolerable and impossible elsewhere is permissible and defensible in the circle of the family.

If in these narrower relations of the family, of marriage and of fraternity, people scrupulously and sensitively regard each other, they will acquire a habit which will enable them to live with all other people, however they may encounter them and wherever. —Chautauquan.

Keep the Girls Tons*.

Mothers should try to prolong their daughters' childhood as much as possible. Life's troubles will* come to them fast enough. And, even from a selfish point of Yiew, a daughter who la childlike in manner and In thought is much more of a comfort to a mother than an immature little woman can be.

It is natural, no doubt, for a tired woman, who has no mother or sister near, to tell her troubles to her little girl to let h«r kawir tha* tha batcher and baker want

4 O

their bills settled and that that speculation of papa's has Relayed the payment to remark On the concjuct of Aunt Elizabeth as "unkiBid to point out the shabbiness Of the parlor furniture to wonder whether the poor house is the future destination of the family, etc. But it is awfully cruel, nevertheless, as many natural things are. Little, pale, grave looking girls, with a premature sense of responsibility, are the outcome of this sort of thing, and the depth of shame and sorrow of which the little heart is capable may be read in the sad eyes.

Perhaps it is even worse than this to dilate to a child on the faults of friends and acquaintances to point out the spite or of people the child is disposed to like to arouse the desire for revenge which awakens in every young soul at the thought of wrong or injustice. Afterward the mother may learn that she was mistaken and forgive and forget the child seldom does.—New York Ledger.

Property of Indians' Wives. iMrs. Elaine Good ale-Eastman, who has a personal knowledge of Indian life, says that among our American Indians the property rights of wives are fully respected. She says: "I never knew an Indian to sell his wife's ponies or anything belonging to her without her consent. "I have known him to receive from a white man a good offer,which he is anxious to accept. He merely replies, 'The horse lis not mine I must ask my wife.' He goes home and asks her simply if she will sell. If she says'No'he tells the white man, •My wife does not wish to sell,' tod nothing further is said. "More than this, an Indian will very seldom sell a horse or anything valuable of his own or make any important decision without consulting the partner of his joys. It is a very common reply to an offer of any kind, concerning a change of residence, the acceptance of a position or sending the children to school, 'I must first ask my wife.' If an Indian woman makes and sells a pair of moccasins the money is hers and she uses it as she sees fit." In some things the Indians might teach a lesson to the more civilized race.—Women's Journal. f' The Inexpediency of Sleeping: on Linen.

The world, or this part of it at least, is full of housekeepers who think that there is no material for sheets and pillow cases comparable to linen.

They don't always have it, to be sure, because it is expensive, but they always covet it and finger the shining breadths lovingly and wonder if the time will ever come when all these things shall be added unto them.

But tho truth about linen is that it isn't the ideal dressing for beds at all. It is cold and slippery, and insures a sensitive person the dream of sleeping on an iceberg, which does well enough for an occasional experience, like seasickness, but which palls on too frequent repetition.

Besides that, it wrinkles and tumbles in spite of its heavier body, much more than cotton, does, giving abed after one night's use a most slovenly and uninviting appearI ance.

Nobody recommends linen for body wear. Its firm texture and hard surface make it wholly nonahsorbent it allows the body to become chilled by refusing the perspiration, and so has been known to bring on serious illness.—Boston Globe.

Itecipe for Beauty.

A pretty woman must first of all have clearly cut, regular features. She must have full, clear eyes. She must have a skin that is above reproach, untouched by rouge and powder. She must have glossy hair that has never known the touch of bleach or dye. She must have a white, expressive hand, preferably a small one, but not of necessity, if it is well kept and white. She must know how to put on her clothes or she loses half her beauty.

She must fully understand what best suits her in the way of hair dressing and cling close to that. A woman may have all these attractions, and unless her own personality is charming, unless she has tact, it dawns on you after yoti. have seen her once or twice that she is not a pretty woman. The most fascinating women to men usually have less than half these regulation charms.—Boston Gazette.

The Oleander'Is Dangerous. Few people know how poisonous the oleander is. Children have been known to die from sucking its flowers a whole family has been poisoned by using meat skpwprs made of oleander wood an infusion of its leaves is sure death to all forms of insect life and its bark powdered and administered in flour is certainly fatal to rats and mice. In Bermuda, where the oleander grows as a hedge plant, the farmers say that it poisons the grass beneath its foliage and that animals will die from eating herbage growing beneath its branches. While it is possible that this may be a mistake, and that the animals die from eating the oleander leaves which have fallen among the grass, it is certain that the plant itself is so noxious that it ought to be banished from every house.—Interview in St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

To Beautify the Home.

There are many plants suited for house culture, but few houses that are suitable for plant culture. It also depends not a little who the cultivator is. A plant requires attention as much as any member of the family who can't help himself. No plant will flower well in an atmosphere laden with gas, and many plants will not appear at their best if the temperature is allowed to fall below 40 degs. at night. Such plants as palms, callas, rubber plants and many others should not be in a room where the temperature falls below 50 degs.

The ficus (india rubber plant) is a beautiful plant for the house, so are the arecas, latanis and phoenix palms. Cyclamens are beantifnl in foliage and flower,' as are primulas, begonias and geraniums.—New England Homestead.

Women realize more and more the potency of perfume as an element of charm with those of the so called sterner sex, and continually devise new and ingenious methods for surrounding themselves with its fragrance.

The use of the bridal veil originated in the custom of performing the mtptial ceremony under a square piece of cloth held between the faces of the bride and bridegroom tocoooeal the blushes of the former.

All friction towels should be washed very rapidly, stretched Into shape and iiied as quickly as possible. It is unnecessary to add that they should never be a A IWttM.

DUTIES OF A MOTHER

ESSENTIAL? TRAINING THAT IS TOO OFTEN NEGLECTED. rf

..... Q'

Woman and Social Purity—now a Mother Should Proceed to Protect Her Children at a Time of Life When Injurious Habits May Be Formed.

The mother's first duty is not to feed and clothe the bodies of her children, but to see to it before God that those bodies are kept free from pollution—that the child is passed over into self keeping, after a full maturity of powers, without enfeeblement or false bias and unhealthy desires. The arrangements designed by nature are the best possible—home, mother, father and slow development of the child. What could be better planned? Yet we allow our parental care to be outflanked by all sorts of corrupting influences and home to be invaded, 'if our houses are fortresses against law, they certainly ought to be against lawlessness. It is, I am free to say, utterly inexcusable that our children shall be got at by debasing influences. We can prevent it, and with wills of the right sort we shall prevent it. "What shall we do about it?" you say, "Shall we turn our houses into monasteries and shut our children up in cells?"

Madam, your question is foolish and you I do not even desire to give yourself to true child culture. You are, I suspect, trying to excuse your selfishness by asking nonjBensical questions. I have seen children brought up with tenderest sympathy and fully guarded against corruption and yet you would never have thought of calling those homes prisons, jails, or monasteries or nunneries. The only difference between them' and other homes was that there the first influence and effort was to train and educate and save the children.

It was not the second or third purpose, but the first purpose. To that everything else bent. The result was most lovely and lovable characters and happy homes and satisfied parentage.

INSTRUCTION FROM MOTHER.

I was recently in a house of different sort—a home in which both parents truly longed for noble children but the father cared for business first and children second, and the mother attended to a half dozen hospitals and homes first and children second. The result was two children out of six have come off ilnsoiled, and two are very badly scared, and two are physically enfeebled by premature and false knowl edge picked up loosely. Half of their education was away from parental control. Excellent people every way, except home was not first in mind. "What sort of policecraft do yon suggest?" .None at all for you, my dear woman you have evidently madeup your mind to a whole catalogue of lies, and argument would be lost on you. You would quote to me, "But the child must see tho world, must he not?" And as soon as 1 had answered that there is every reason why he should not see some part of the world, you would begin again with, "Well, every child must sow his wild oats." Then I should say to you that he must also reap what he sows. But you would tell me at once that if I shut up my children they will break away as soon as possible, and go to the bad as soon as possible, and I should answer that I do not intend to act as jailer but as mother, and that the question between us was one of extent of Jove and guardianship, for you also believe In a certain degree and kind of discipline.

Then you would say, "But how shall a clnltf eVer know how to go into society if kept awkwardly shy when young And I would say, "That is nonsense, for no child need be kept shy or made awkward in a fine home, with noble friends and enough to do and think about and as for profes-

bional society, if that is what you mean, God save my boys and girls from ever feeling a tasto for such a sickly lie." Nor would you be satisfied yet, but would say, "But I cannot put up bars between my children and my neighbors." And I would answer, "There is ouly this need of bars, that you have the grit to sacrifice anything to the purity of your children."

WHERE MOTHERS ARE CARELESS.

Then you may very justly say, "But am I to consider my children better than other folks' children, and will they tolerate my conceit?" And I will say "Madam, there is a vast amount of that conceit among parents who let their children run loose and are very free with them. It is this assumption that somehow your children are something wonderful that makes the mischief. If instead you frankly say they are not remarkable—only weak and liable to be spoiled, which you do not intend to permit—then you will see that your neighbors will noc feel so bad about it." But you persist: "They must have society, and it is natural. It would be wrong to seclude them." I reply: "That is so exactly. Now do you see that they do have society, and enough of the very best only that is not natural society which is out of your sight, or is artificial in dress and fashion."

But no need of further discussion. You and I are determined not to agree. You do not mean to adopt safeguards enough to make sure of your children I do. But with some mothers I can agree, and our chief puzzle is first how to go to work to accomplish what we desire. For when we look about the woeful fact stares us in the face that nearly all the children are cor rupted before school life is over. If we want- sweet souls and clean minds how shall we get them?

SOME THINGS TO OBSERVE RIGIDLy.

On no account fail to study your boys and girls and see what one special thing they delight in then let each one, from the first manifestation of a bias, have that to do. If the child is naturally an artist be sure he is furnished with art material and a studio. If he be a mechanic let him have tools and a shop. Don't dare to think yon can afford a sealskin sacque and cannot afford all the tools he can use. If you have a book lover let him follow his bent with only rational restraint.

Be sure on no account to allow your child to sleep with his friends at their homes or to have companions to spend the night with him. Even day association may be almost wholly in or near your presence, if you wilt take the trouble to overlook such companionship generally.

Take special pains to train tho oldest child to companionship and accustom him or her to a watchful co-operation in guarding with you the younger ones. The oldest rf»fM is a wonderful power for good or for evil.

Blessed be the father and the mother that have devoted themselves to their children, and have learned that no higher office exists In the universe.—Mary Bi. Louis Globe-Democrat.

People who use arsenical prepaiations for their complexion, do so at the risk of their lives. Ayer's Sarsaparilla \s guaranteed free from any injurious drug, and 19, therefore, the safest as well as the most powerful blood medicine in tho world. It makes the skin clear.

A Woman of Mohammed's Time. In the fifth century of the Hegira the Sheikha Shuhda, designated Fakhrunnissa ("the glory of women"), lectured publicly at the Musjid-i-Jama of Bagdad to large audiences on literature, rhetoric and poetry. She occupies in the annals of Islam a position of equality with the most distinguished ulemas. What would have befallen this lady had she flourished among the fellow religionists of St.-Cyril can be judged by the fate of Hypatia. Possibly she would not have been torn to pieces, but she would, to a certainty have been burned as a witch. Dzat-ul-Hemma, corrupted into Dzemnia, "the lion heart," the heroine of many battles, fought side by side with the bravest knights.

It is a calumny, therefore, to say that the Islamic system has lowered the status of women. The teacher who, in an age when no country, no system, no community gave any right to woman, maiden or married, mother of wife—who, in a country where the birth of a daughter was considered a calamity, secured to the sex rights which are only unwillingly and under pressure being conceded to them by the civilized nations of the Nineteenth century—deserves the gratitude of humanity.

If Mohammed had done nothing more his claim to be a benefactor of mankind would have been indisputable. Even.under the laws as they stand at present in the pages of the legists, the legal position of Moslem fomales may be said to compare favorably with that of European women.—Ameer Ali in Nineteenth Century.

Did you notice that fine head of hair at church last Sunday? That was Mrs. She never permits herself to be out of Hall's Hair R^newer.

The Trust Committod to Women. It must he conceded that in our time women read books more than men. Men are too absolutely absorbed in business, in invention, in investigation, to read much more than tho newspaper or the book pertaining to their particular profession.

The multiplication of women's clubs is a wonderful incentive to reading, for there must be exhaustive study and thorough research, by some of the members at least, to produce tho truly admirable papers that are often read before us.

Granted, as somo assert, that women lack in inventive faculty, may we not claini that the service wo are rendering is no trifling service? Wo women, and the few men who love these things, are keeping alive in this practical, scientific age the rare books that we cannot afford to lose, and the literary, poetic faculty and insight, without which the world would be blind indeed.

Let it be our care, then, to appreciate this sacred trust, to conserve literature andnever to betray it by galvanizing into life any unworthy thought that were better dead.—Amelia K. Wing in Business Worn' an's Journal.
