Frances Willard says of her mother: She never talked abont woman's rights In the early years of her children, but we somehow felt and knew that she was a free spirit. As St. Paul says, she was "freeborn." She went' about her work with a certain dignity that could not be mistaken. A sense of nelf respect, but not of self assertion, must have impressed all who knew her. She accepted the circumscribed lot of women, but was perfectly aware that she had in herself the ability to have filled a larger place in the world. Yet, as she went about her household cares it seemed as if she understood what good George Herbert meant in those oft quoted lines:

A room well swept, as by God's laws. Makes that and the action fine. Only one occasion do I recall when the subject of woman's rights was mentioned between my father and my mother. About the year 1851 my father came home from the adjacent town which he visited almost daily and to which the rest of the family went but a few times a year. He was in remarkable spirits, and as he paced up and down the sitting room, according to his wont, while mother busied her swift fingers with the family mending, he said, "We heard today in the city that Neal Dow has carried out his idea beyond what anybody supposed would ever be, and the law has been adopted."

My father was in political life and was one of the 13 Free Soil members in the legislature of Wisconsin who in 1840 voted for a similar law. Pausing in his swift career up and down the room, he said to mother, standing before her with his arms folded, "When do yon suppose that our poor rurr cursed Wisconsin will ever have a law like that?" Whereupon mother, dropping her needle and looking up into his face with sudden glow of enthusiasm, replied, "I think, Josiah, there will be a law just like that all over the nation some day when women vote."

My father was a great conservatives© far as the woman question was concorueu, though progressive on most other subjects. He seemed much shocked, and putting on his look of irony which we understood so well and dreaded not a little, ho said, "Perhaps you will be good enough to tell me how it is to be brought about that women shall vote?" Mother's enthusiasm was dampened. She looked no longer into hi3 face, but into the glowing winter fire, and said: "I shall have to answer that question in Scripturo language, even as Paul did when he said to liis jailer: 'You have put us into prison, we being Romans. You will just have to como and take us out.'" They spoke no more upon the subject but, sitting by, a little pitcher with large cars, 1 drank in and l«ave never forgotten the suffrage speech made by my mother-the first and well nigh the last that I ever heard until 1 began to make such speeches on my own account

20

years later.

When my mother was 80 and sat for her picture, Anna Gordon, wishing to induce that lighting up of the countenance which the operator so much insists, stood wiiere mother could see her, and, pointing with her playful finger, "laid off" to mother her full belief that, old as she was, she would live long enough to vote. Several pictures or ataken on.. that? occasion, but the ono iu vvhieh l^na played this, part has a smilo most characteristic, oflft tKafc shows how thoroughly that stirtny nature loved the beams of light that frtictify the mind and make up what we call progress.

The last time mother ever left the house except to take a morning ride was on a cheerless day cf April before her death ir. August, when she, who hud already taken the trouble to register her name, although the ballot was only permitted to women for school officers, went with other progressive .women of Evauston, climbed the stairs to the public room where the ballot box was located and

cast

in her first aud last vote.

Sho wrote to me about it quite in detail aud with great interest. That was the last letter of the hundreds I had received ant. cherished from her kind and faithful hand.

The Women of Canada.

Much comment has been made of late about the freshness aud brightness of Canadian matrons. The climate, their rather regular, simple habits and various otho. reasons have been given for this, but ore of tho best explanations was recently voiced by a woman, an able physicluu, who has had an extended practice among tho better class of women in Canada.

Sho says that these people eat enough pickles, preserves, sweets and rich food to entirely destroy the digestion of the averago American. Their habits are simple in a way. Their diet Is in many respects atrocious, gauged by hygienic rules. Tho secret of their health and strength, especially among tho matrons and younger elderly women, according to this statement, is that when Canadian girls marry they accept the responsibilities that come with their new condition not only without protest but with certain degree of willingness* They rarely war against nature, but tnke excellent care of themselves, and as a consequence have better health and better times than many of their American sisters. Being qucs tionod as to the truth of this, a Canadian woman somewhat noted for her freshness and youthful appearance, although the mother of a large family of rollicking youngsters, said: "When Canadian girls marry, they take it for granted that if they are to have families the wisest tiling for them to do is to xnako tho best of it, tAke good care of themselves and try to make their children and their homes happy. When the children are grown or partly so, the mother has an idea that she has e-ameti a little recreation and pleasure. The older ones are taught to care tor the younger, and in all welt regulated Canadian households things would go ©a almost the same if the mother were away for a third of tho yi?ar. The older girls and boys are taught to take responsibilities, look after the younger one®, attend to household affairs and know what is needed and where and how best to supply the lact "Instead of postponing the raising of their children or avoiding it by all sorts of injurious methods* these sensible, dear headed women fed & pride in having brought u» aa interesting family, then taking the leisure and time that in their pjjrly married life circumstances deprived them of.

Remarks About Usta.

A grotl hu :-t ke*pcr should always mailt her linen as ssc-ti as she buys It. for housebold articles -«"«ch as sheet*, pillowcases,

towels and the like, which are not usually embroidered, the best way is to mark them with the initials, the number of that particular set and the year, thus "A. B., 12, 1808." This will show you that you have 12 towels, or whatever they are. of that kind bought in 1693. The object of doing this is to enable you to see at a glance how many articles of the same pattern you possess or ought to possess, and when you bonght them. In very large houses the housekeeper keeps a separate set of bed linen and towels for each room, in which case the number of the room should also be marked on the linen.

To have anything like an adequate supply of house linen there should be three pillowcases to each pillow, three pairs of sheets to each bed and 14 towels to each person, not including bath towels, besides a few dozen extra fine ones for special occasions. Where fresh napkins are given at each meal there should be 43 napkins to each member of the family, not including guests, who have not been included in this enumeration. *r

The kitchen linen should be of a coarser quality and kept quite apart, but every lady should encourage self respect in her servants sufficiently to give them an adequate supply of table linen as well as what is necessary for their rooms. Most cooks will gladly wash out their tablecloths for the sake of a clean, neat, attractive looking table.—New York Tribune.

The Burning of Waste Food. Burn your waste particles of food—odds and ends that are left on the table, useless pieoes cut off in the kitchen in fact, anything and everything that would otherwise go into the dumpbox. It is a much healthier method of getting rid of waste than the usual way of keeping the same for a number of days, perhaps until you are favored by a weekly call from the garbage gatherer.

Bones, vegetable scrapings and peelings, yes, even mush, will eventually be consumed and can be accomplished without interfering with the ordinary cooking or slackening the fire any perceptible degree by placing the same in the farthest corner of the grate and allowing it to dry while the ordinary fire is being burned. It will not be long before the blaze will catch on to the mass, and it will vanish.

Then, again, it is economical, for it fur nishes a kind of fuel which costs nothing, which one is glad to be rid of and the burning of which is a sanitary measure, of itself the most important feature and recommendation. An objection may be raised on account of the odor arising when the stove lids arc lifted, but by a judicious use of the damper and by being careful not to place such material in the stove excepting during a moderately brisk Gre, having it all burn down before another is built, no disagreeable odor will be noticed.

Tho points in favor of burning waste and reducing it to ashes are many compared to tho slight objections which may be urged. The disease breeding mass in the back yard is done

away

with, and in consequence

mice that find in the garbage box an attraction for their unwelcome visits are an unknown quantity.—Good Housekeeping.

Work That Wealthy Women Do. A woman who makes fancy articles for one of the exchanges was complaining recently that thoso who do this work for a living are frequently undersold by women who do not have to earn their bread, but who want to add to their pin money. She said: "These women surely ought not to exhibit their work for sale at emporiums which were primarily established to help wage earners. Do they not defeat the very purpose of the exchange by so doing? They have more leisure than we do. They can affyrd to tako up the finest kinds of fancv work, and as they do not depend for the necessities of life upon what they earn, they are often willing to sell for less than we can afford to, aud the worst of it is they often have wealthy friends who desire to purchase their articles."

There is just one point in all this, and that is that these women should seek to sell at stores managed upon a purely business basis rather than at these salesrooms which were organized to help needy women earn a living. But some few" unsuccessful workers would go further than this and say that well to do women should not attempt to earn money at all if they sb desire. One might as well say that women in comfortable circumstances should not write books, paint pictures or think out inventions for fear of competing with those less favorably placed. Acting upon such principles one of the best serial stories now naming would never have been written. Mediocrity would be the result. To forbid all women the industrial field who are not absolutely driven to work would be a step backward rather than forward in the progress of womankind.—Brooklyn Eagle.

Women Dress Now For Women. It used to be said that women dressed to please men. If so, those days are past. Now they dress to outvie one another. At least one cannot but think so, for as a role men notice only the ensemble the details are absolutely thrown away on them, and if the only object of women were to attract men, a much smaller outlay would suffice. It is not only the outward garment that is splendid and varied, another modern expense in the dress of women is the magnificence of their under linen.

Every article of a smartly dressed woman's linen is a work of art. The finest linen and the costliest laces are de rigueur. The countless petticoats and the perpetual change of chaussure (every gown having its shoes and stockings to match) constitute another item in the list of necessary articles, and when one comes to reckon on the endless toilers erf a year, with their indispensable accessories, one sees easily how impossible it is for any woman smartly dressed to be so economically.

Women of the highest rank in England used to consider £300 or £400 a year ample for pin money and out of that helped others less rich than themselves. But that is ridiculously out ot proportion to the sums spent by any woman who wishes to be well dressed. If married women can afford to spend double or treble what their mothers spent, and their husbands are able and willing to let them do so, it is injurious only ifidircetly perhaps, but it is directly very hard on girls, who as a rule have not large allowances and must under modern conditions of fashion emulate as much as possible the example of the young married woman.—National Review.

Point* For the Stoat.

The stout woman has it in her power to rnakfr a handsome appearance and to be reasonably hnppy. Her success, however, must be won :tlong the lines of modesty, simplicity a»«5 temperance. A woman who weighs 150 pounds or more should Jet novel tics in the dress alone and avoid extremes as she v-*"ld plague.

Tjght sieevesand' gloves give the arms the outlines oi £ham and the hands the appearance of abbreviated head cheeses.

A High Stool'For the Kitchen/^*"* Every well appointed kitchen should contain at least one office stool, such as are used by clerks who write at high (Jesks. It allows mistvess or maid to work as readily sitting as standing at various employments, without that wearisome gesture of stretching up the arms to a level with a table or ironing board. Another important advantage is that the feet rest upon its rounds, and thus removo the weight of the body from them. This in itself is more comfortable and refreshing than women are accustomed to consider.—Exchange.

Encon Nearly as Good as Butter. Next to sweet, fresh butter, as a digestible fat, comes bacon, which, when delicately broiled, is as delicious as it is nutritious. It is said to be the process of curing that changes pork which in its fresh state is so hard for a delicate stomach to assimilate. The fiber i3 so close that the digestive fluids do not readily act upon it. Mrs. Abel, who is an authority ou the chemistry of foods, says, "Bacon has come to rival cod liver oil as a cure for consumption."

A Well Known Woman Writer. Mrs. Eva Wilder McGlasson is orie of the most remarkable women of the age. Not only is she remarkable for her brilliancy, but on account of her extreme youth and the ease with which she has attained the pinnacle of fame. Mrs. McGlasson is still less than 34, and yet she has written and published two successful books. She is petite and pretty and exhibits the fresh, ingenuous charm of an extremely bright schoolgirl.—Exchange.

How to Clean Oil Paintings.

If oil paintings have been soiled or fly specked, they may be cleaned by wiping them off with a cloth dampened with warm water. Do not use soap and do not rub hard, but a careful washing will brighten the colora without harming the paint in the least. \l'

Babies in long dresses are not often taken from home, but when they are, the dress made for home "state occasions" is worn. These dresses are very simple and made of mull, French, Indian or linen lawns, with straight, full skirts, from a yard and a half to two yards wide.

Change of Air Is Often Better Than Physic. Too often parents and guardians are at a loss to know what to do for their "delicate" children. One sees that a child is not strong. She looks pale, seems tb be weak and so quickly exhausted upon every slight exertion. Possibly the appetite is miserable, and either inability to sleep or too £h?at an inclination to sleep are prominent^nd distressing symptoms. Oftentimes the^Jfsymptoms are forerunners of a fever ^some other grave disease, but more fr^iently they indicate the need of a change #m indoor life to that of living in the opfen air. The best mode of living out of dogtfs is to find some work to do there, although idle sauntering is better than keeping*yithin doors. Medicines do little good whOT nothing but frailty is to be treated.—Excnange.

Never Punish When Angry.

Punishment should never be the expression of the parent's irritation, and slapping children, which is too.often tho mode of its expression, should always be avoided. A sharp, stinging blow .only arouses rebellion, although prudence may prevent its expression, and the obedience is dearlyJtoug&t that awakens the worst feelings of the little heart. A mother should always control herself before she attempts to control her little child, and if chastisement must be inflicted it should be after her own excitement has cooled down and she can look at the fault impartially.—Motherhood^

The Model Hostess.

A woman may possess wealth untold, she may have the kindest of hearts and the brightest of minds, but unless she has absolute control of her feelings there will be some time in her career as hostess that she will display annoyance or flurry, and the contagion spreading to her guests will cause an otherwise successful entertainment to die out in undisguised -failure. .'

A mod# hostess must to all appearances be made of stone, so far as disagreeable happenings are concerned. Even though a guest or careless waiter inadvertently breaks a bit of china which can never be replaced, she must smile on as though the loss of the entire set would but emphasize the pleasure of the evening. Her well bred r-^lm inspires her guests with a feeling of confidence, and though in her heart she may be very dubious about certain important details of her dinner or dance, if she does not show her anxiety, everything will pass off to a happy conclusion.

A flurried hostess and nervous host, whose countenances but ill conceal the worry they feel, can do more toward making the guests uncomfortable than if the soup were served stone cold and the salad dressing were ruined by a too bountiful quantity of vinegar. An imperturbable calm and a ready tact are the two important factors in the making of a model hostess. Secure these by hook or crook, and you need never fepr for the success of any of your entertainments.—Philadelphia Times.

Saved from Insanity. A sample of the good work VlAVI is accomplishing. VIAVI COMPANY

For some years- my daughter suffered with suppressed menstruation and catarrh of the womb, and was treated by the best physicians but kept growing worse all the time until she was a perfect wreck. Her face and lips looked perfectly death-like and she had faintlug spells at any aud all times could sit up but a very little, her pulse being so weak and irregular that I was afraid to have her alone and slept with her all the time. I did not think she would live long, and I believe she would have lasted Out a very short time had it not been for VIAVI.

She began the use of it the first of January and now she Is on her sixth box and she says she thinks she is cured, but she/must use it for a jTear yet for I want her FULLY cured.

Her cheeks are rosy and she goes wherever she wishes—went to Memphis, Tenn., in April, a distance of 650 miles, alone and returned alone, also after her visit.

All of our friends think it perfectly wonderful, and nothing but VIAVI has done it and Mrs. Claflin encouraged and cheered us up at the beginning. For two months she improved slowly. She now menstruates from three to four days

A Young Cook.

There is in Brownsville a little Mexican girl 8 years old who hires out as a cook. Her employer is a man who lives alone, and she prepares all the food he eats. She makes tortillas many times the size of her tiny hands, pounding the corn in a metate and doing the entire work alone. It is well known that the making of tortillas is the work of a woman grown. For her services the tiny cook receives her food and the sum of 4 cents per day.

She is a bright little thing, very pretty and neat, and seems to bear her burden of labor with Q^se. A lady visiting the house one evening lately saw the little ono returning from her work. A younger sister ran gayly to'tneet her, giving her a warm greeting, and the two entered with their arms about each other, the little cook proudly carrying her day's wages, 4 copper cents, tied up in a bit of calico.—Brownsville (Tex.) Herald.'

For the Baby.

In the center of a beautiful crib cover lately made there are wrought in large size the heads of three cherubs and beneath them the words, "Angels guard thy bed." The material used for the, cover is a fine white broadcloth, and the embroidery is done with rope embroidery silk. Brown silk is used for a lining and as a double puff to finish the edge. Cotton and vroolen bedford cords in cream white are much lilted for such covers and for pillows.

Silk Designing For Woman. A silk manufacturer said to me iipt lone ago that there was a great chance for women to earn a very good living at silk designing. Nearly all the patterns used are imported. "Many of the women's ideas are good," said he, "but they are inaccurately carried out. Besides' designs for silk, the students show excellent wcrk in ornamentation for wall paper, carpets, book covers, etd"

The Princess* School Days.

1

The Princess Kaiulani was educated quite democratically in an English boarding school. Hiirrowden Hall was the name of the institution, and Mrs. Sharp was the name of the mistress of the establishment.

Mrs. Sharp permitted the neighboring town of Willingborcugh to see very little of her royal charge. Kaiulani was very little trouble and remarkably like any other schoolgirl. She went through the school curriculum of accomplishments in the ordinary way, showing much aptitude, but no very lively enthusiasm. Full of fun, natural, gracious, affectionate and very much addicted to catching up slang phrases, the princess made herself extremely popular with her schoolmates, who called her Kaiulani with all the numerous endearments beloved of schoolgirlhood.

It has been stated that she is beautiful, and she is certainly very good looking, with a pair of glorious dark eyes, clear olive skin and a great quantity of wavy hair. Her photograph is in the possession of a great many of the Harrowden Hall girls, given by herself, nearly always with affectionate words on the back, together with her signature.—London Queen.

Mrs. Lamb's Faith In American Women* The late Mrs. Martha J. Lamb had the greatest faith in and respect for the work of her American sisters in the fields of literature, art, music, drama, science, education and philanthropy. "I don't see," said she on one occasion to a writer who was getting up something about "Monuments to Famous "Women," "what you want to go out of America for." "You have 'George Eliot'—far less worthy than many others not named—and you have left out your own Emma Willard—one of the foremost educators and women of her time, founder of the Troy seminary for the higher education of women, and of a school in Greece, as well as a prolific author on educational subjects. "If," she continued, "we are to ever have statues of 'famous women' in our public places, let us first exhaust our list of Americans and then cross over the ocean."—Exchange.

I cannot praise your valuablo preparation enough. Frank S. Sell mitt, Seymour, lnd.
