WOMAN AND HOME.

SOMETHING ABOUT THE TALKED OF HYGIENIC UNDERGARMENTS, a.

The Education of Girli-CLeeping Clean. The Model For Good Women—Development of Women's Clabe—Society Women S and Their Children.

Mrs. Lacy E. Switzer of Cbeny, Wash., 'Writes: I do not think the pleas made through the press for hygienic undergarments will convert the masses of women to their use. The objections, I think, will be these: Too expensive and not warm enough, tor a majority, fbr all seasons of the year. A wool or camel's hair, silk or ootton union suit, with a silk divided skirt and a dress worn over them docs not make up an apparel warm enough in winter. Then how many can afford to wear (in proportion to the whole population) silk divided skirts? To the chemilette there are objections—difficulty of making them to fit nicely, the rapidity with which they wear out and the fact that the body about the waist and the shoulders will be too warm dressed in a union suit, chemilette, comfort corset, or under waist, and the dress waist.

In summer the union garment, the divided skirt and the dress will clothe the person warmly enough, and the material for each can be selected to suit the climate, habits and health of the woman. In winter a pair of knit wool drawers, a pair of cotton drawers or Icglets knitted at home of germ an wool or yarn, finished with a yoke ttt the top, can be worn over the union garment and under the divided skirt.

When I began wearing the divided skirt, 1 had some made ftf cotton material from a pattern procured from Dr. Orpha Baldwin, who lectured in our state some years ago. This cotton material can be bleached (white) sheeting, butcher's linen or any colored cotton stuff. For the colder seasons I have added cotton flannel (red), outing flannel and heavy wool flannel.

The farmers' wives, the housekeepers, the helpers in the kitchen, the Working women of all classcs need to have the advantage of these comfortable undergarments. Many of them do not probably read very much or think very much on this one line, and a programme of this under apparel should be presented to them that will commend itself for comfort as to warmth and that will not go beyond their capacity in expense or beyond the expense of their present way of dressing.

The divided skirts as I wear them are fin ished at the top with a wide sort of bins band, and this bond is buttoned on to along underwaist longer than a basque. These underwaists may be made of white cotton goods, colored sllesia or of butcher's linen, or cotton flannel if desired.

Now as to the union suit. After several years' experience and experimenting, I have evolved one that 1 like very much. After having made and worn 10 suits of cotton, silk, wool and camel's hair, I now do not cut ofT the back of tho vest at the bottom as before, but I sew tho top of tho drawers to it and on the inside of the vest. Thus the vest will fall out the outside of the drawers when worn, which almost entirely removes tho objection to the union suit made in this way. Indeed is warmer than tho regulation union garment.

Before I began to wear the divided pkirt I wore tho long underwaists and attached my skirts to t. If white or any cotton goodr ,, :i for skirts, the waist and skirt

sewa 'together us ono garment,

And If the skirt were moreen or any other stiff goods, un washable, tho skirt and waist were fastened together by buttons. The divided skirts I liko much. May the day speed!" arrive when wo can adopt the hygienic iW also.

The Education of Girls.

There is no subject that so deeply inter•eats tho thinking peoplo of our country as that of rational education for our girls, and there Is none that is productive of so little real advantage to the girls from the many discussions that tho subject, occasions. Plans are considered and laid aside, and theories rise only to fall again, and meanwhilo tho girl speeds on toward womanhood, misdirecting her energies ami wasting valuable time through lack of well defined plans for her best advantage on the port of her guardians and educators.

Wo cannot overdo the matter of discreetly rearing our girls. They are to be the wives and mothers of our next generation, and on them rests tho prosperity of the nation. Tho world is to bo largely influenced by their abilities and strength, and it rests with tho educators of today to prepare them for the great work that 1M fore them. The keynote of harmony in mental and physical education has not yet been touchod and will not until their physical well being is made supreme and the mental is based on this power. The time has never been in our country when this has been practically considered. Regard less of physical resources mental expansion has ever been and still is the aim and has grown to such craue in America that brain power is often forced to tho exhaustion of all other capabilities.

When our girls thus forced graduate, they are, even if they escape invalidism, utterly without stamina and are rrly prepared for entering cheerfully upon the duousdntir* that await them in everyday lite and «lw are unfortified for rising above the disappointments and tixieties that enter ti a greater or less Into every home.

Their career closes at their graduation instead of being at its dawn, said many a bright intellect that gave promise of strength everywhere burns but dimly In an obscure circle from being caged In an enfeebled and exhausted body.—Marguerite Lindly in GodcyX

Keeping- Clean.

She was a very trim young woman with that clean, smart appearance which we call well groomed for want of a better term. Her hair was parted in the middle to a plain severity, her linen collar and caffs were spotless, and the hem of her dress skirt as tire* from dust aa that of an evening gown.

To be sure, I've "had to cut down en soda water and candy, because my laundry hills are so large, and the new mannish shoes and gloves are awfully expensive, but that's the only way to get the effect, so I have to stand it. "—Chicago News-Rec-ord.

The Model For Good Women. What an obstinate, curious set we women are, to be sore! We do not like to be called strong minded because the frivolous ones among us regard that state of mental being as incompatible with style, and yet we would resent very vigorously the assertion made by any one that we were weakminded. Of course we wonld, yet what do we want? Is there any half way term suggestive of just that correct balance that we are anxious to acquire?

Perhaps no word aptly fills the bill, but the state can be acquired, and it will repay us for any little sacrifices we may be compelled to make or real work that must be undergone to reach it. No man admires a woman whose intellectuality makes her forget all about the most becoming arangement of her hair, nor does he fancy the extremist who regards books as of secondary importance to personal beauty, and whose every remark is punctuated by the commas, semicolons and periods of self praise, fashion comment and inane small talk.

There is a happy medium that combines wit and wisdom with womanly grace that does not air its superiority and tluii is not above a desire to please by both mental and personal attractiveness. That is the type to copy. Become less of extremists, ye great world of women, and your lives will be longer, your homes happier and your souls more tranquil in the serenity of a combination of strengBh and weakness, self reliance and dependence, that makes you far more winning than if you are given over entirely to one side or the other.—Philadelphia Times.

Development of Women's Clubs. "The woman's club in its full development is something more than a study class," says Florence Howe Hall. "What we learn from papers and essays is only apart of what we learn from club life. The friction with other minds, so stimulating and invigorating, the spirit of club life, which springs from sharing together the mental and moral feast that exhilarates ys all, and from the good will and mutual good fellowship engendered by working and thinking and sometimes playing together, all these form a large part of tho intangible but precious essence of club life hence club growth should be toward that free and open discussion in which all may share at one time or another, and where each woman who has a message to give may give it briefly and forcibly, but not harshly. "For club growth, if healthy, is surely in tho direction of harmony. Harmony i3 not unison, however, and the modern masters of musical composition have shown us what a wonderful number of different tones may be joined in one harmonious chord. And at our women's chibs we are just learning the same lesson—from a hundred different opinions we make a grand chorus, the effect of which is far more rich and beautiful than if all the voices utter the same word or note. If club growth should be in the direction of discussion free to all, it follows as a natural corollary that there will bo an increasing freedom as to the topics chosen for discussion as well as in the treatment of those topics."

Society Women and Their Children. Do society women neglect their children? How can they help it? If giving them plenty to eat and to wear, if sending them to expensive schools and spending large sums for their accomplishments were all that was required to bring up children, then the answer would be in the negative. But if parents are in duty bound to give more care and supervision than this—to have charge of their moral and intellectual growth—then there are instances upon instances where not only the much abused society woman, but that other large class, not always found in swelldom, but who allow innumerable outside responsibilities to take precedence of home life, do neglect the little ones.

A woman of many engagements boasts that she spends one hour every day with her children, and that this is all she can possibly find time for. What is one hour out of a whole day? There are many fami lies all through the city where children rise in the morning, eat their breakfasts and go off to school without one word from the mother, who is sleeping in a well guarded attempt to make up for the late hours of the night before. There are servants to see that the children are well fed and warmly attired, but such children can never have tho sweet memories of home that those have who departed for school with a goodby kiss and a word of interest in the day's lessons. —Brooklyn Eagle.

Helping on Wash Days.

Women are naturally inclined to be helps and not hindrances in the daily routine of homo life, but sometimes a very good woman can be very selfish in her choice of duties without meaning it ©specially. Take, for instance, the Monday's work, when the girl does the washing and the mistress is supposed to do the housework. How much of it does she really accomplish?

To begin with, the girl cooks the break test and lays the table. She performs these duties In the Interludes of washing. While the family eat breakfast the girl washes and the mistress thereafter assists her by clearing up the breakfast dishes. Pots and pans are crowded away in the sink fbr Mary to wash when the clothes are out. Then the mistress gets a wretched apology for lunch or dinner and leaves the dishes for Mary, who is nearly through with the washing.

Some time in the afternoon the girl finds time to wash her dishes and prepare the third meal of the day. She has actually performed the duties of two women, but her mistress, lying down with a headache, will declare that she got it doing May's work for her. Mary, on her part, if she tells the truth, will say that it tired her more cleaning up after the mistress than her washing did. Every unwashed and misplaccd dtsh was a hind ranee.—Detroit Free Press.

much more quickly than is necessary. There is a good theory in this, and the additional time is worth while, unlessstrength and help are of more importance than towels. 1* pillowcases should be turned wrong side out and pinned to the line by the closed end. Exception to this rule may be made on dull or damp days, when the clothes dry slowly—then they should be pinned to the line at one side of the open end, but it is worth while for convenience in ironing

change them and let them finish drying pinned by the closed end.—New York Ledger

Suggestions About Closets.

The average height of woman is 5 feet 9 fontipa, but rarely does one find a house in a city or country in which any attention has been paid to this fact in arranging the closets. The hooks are usually placed about six feet from the floor and above tbfem is placed a shelf which is almost useless, una woman mounts on a chair every time she wishes her bonnet or shawl. In the ideal closet the hooks are only 4% feet from the floor and the shelf two or three inches above them. The closet should be supplied with yokes, as clothing of all kinds keeps in much better shape when hung on yokes. The floors of closets should be smooth, and all cracks should be filled up that dust may not collect therein.

Putty, plaster of paris or even finely shredded newspaper may be used to fill up the cracks. Make a paste with the paper by adding hot water and a little glue. Plaster of paris is simplest and most satisfactory for this purpose. Mix the powder with enough cold water to make the paste of the right consistency to spread and then fill In the cracks. Afoer the plaster is hard give the floor two coatings of paint to make it look smooth and neat.—Exchange.

Simple Amusement For Youngsters. Where children are accustomed to playing out of doors it is more of a problem to amuse them than those who ara continually shut indoors. A rainy day where there is an attic to go to, is sometimes quite a delight to tho children, when mother will let. them have a rummage among old boots, dresses and hats. I have seen a small boy contented for hours with an old pair of boots, a high hat and an old coat, assuming different characters or playing drive coach on top of an old chest. And little girls like nothing better than an old silk gown, bonnet and a pair of long kid gloves and any old finery of laco or flowers added, to turn themselves into littlfe quaint dames for several hours.—Cor. New York Recorder.

Buy Bacon In Quantity if Possible. Breakfast bacon is one of the most serviceable relishes within the reach of the housekeeper. It may be used by itself or combined with many other things to give them the needed savoriness. It may be purchased in any quantity in the markets, the provision man shaving it off for you if you wish, but if one has a cool place to keep it in it is a good plan to buy a whole piece of the boneless breakfast bacon, which comes in wrappings that can be kept on it until the last of the meat is used. It is not only a great convenience to have tho bacon in the house, but it is also more economical to buy a whole picce than to get it in small quantities.—Good Housekeeping.

A Noat Way to Clean Gloves. If only slightly soiled, a small piece of oiled silk wound round the finger, and rubbed vigorously over any sort of kid or chamois gloves will remove all traces of the spot, provided it is not a stain. A woman who teats this easy mode of cleaning kid gloves will be sure to keep thereajLcer a length of oiled silk in her dresr.iug case. Three-eights of a yard -is enough to purchase at one time, or even one-eighth, as in the fancy dry goods stores where it is sold it is kept moist in a largo roll and is thus very pliabla It is well, however, to moisten the silk slightly when using it, just a.v one doKi a postage stamp.—Exchange.

New Way to Iron Shirt Bosoms. After the usual plan of smoothing over the dry starched surface with a wetted cloth, next rub apiece of white castlle soap, tho same that is used for smoothing sewing machine seams, evenly and lightly all over the shirt bosom, which is then ironed with a very clean iron of those especially made for the purpose. It is the handling of the iron and the strength of pressing it firmly upon the shirt that mak68 oil the difference between good and bad ironing. Either mutton suet, white wax borax, or gum arable in the hot starch will improve that and make the ironer's work tell better. —Exchange.

Woman's Queer Position In France. A curious state of affairs prevails in France in relation to women. A French woman may become a doctor, a lawyer, a member of the board of education and may even be decorated with the cross of the Legion of Honor, but she may not witness a legal document. She occupies an important place in art, business tyd commerce, but she cannot possess her own earnings if she is married, and she can neither, buy nor cell property \fithout her husband's consent.— Chicago Tribune.

Orange Chips.

To make orange chips cut the oranges in quarters and carefully squeeae all juice through a sieve. Soak the peel in water and the next day boil it till tender, drain, slice the peel, put it into the juice, weigh as much sugar and put all together into a broad earthen dish, place over the fire at a moderate distance, often stirring, till the chips oasdy and then set them in a cool room to dry. They will not be dry under three weeks.—Boston Globe.

Mrs. Robert Louis Stevenson is a portly, gray haired woman, who was a grandmother when she became Mr. Stevenson's wife. She is a remarkably clever woman, a talented writer And a chatty and cheery conversationalist.

The French method of administering castor oil to children is to pour it into a pan over a moderate fire, break an egg in it and stir. When cooked, flavor with salt or sugar or currant jelly.

It goes without saying that Mr. Whitney owes much of his success in life to the accomplishments of his late wife. That can be vaid of every successful man who is well mated in this world.

Patent medicines differ—One has reasonableness, another has not. One has reputation—another has not. One has confidence, born of success—another has only" "hopes."

Don't take it for granted that all patent njediclnesare alike. They are not. Let the years of uninterrupted success and tbe tens of thousands of cured and happy men and women, place Dr. Pierre's Golden Medical Discovery and Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription on the side of the comparison to which they belong. And there isn't a state or territory, no— nor hardly a country in the world, whether its people realize it or not, but have men and women in them that're happier because of their discovery and their effects.

Think of this in health. Think of it in siokness. And then think whether you can afford to make the trial if the makers can afford to take the risk to give your money back, an they do, it they do not benefit or cure you.

3Irs. Bayard Taylor.

Mrs. Bayard Taylor, the widow of America's "beloved poet.," lives so quietly here in the land of her adoption that it will be a surprise to many Xc-v Yorkers to learn that her home is. in the heart of their own city, not far from Gramercy park. Here with her only daughter and the latter's husband Mrs. Taylor, following the dictates of a retiring nature, keeps her life close, except to the circle of choice intimates who are admitted to the friendship of this gentle and gifted woman. Mrs. Taylor's tastes must always be literary, being the daughter and wife of a scholar. Her recent little volume, though in reality a practical cookbook, bears the imprint of her culture and

knoAvledge.

"I have addressed myself particularly In this book," says Mrs. Taylor, "to young, intelligent married women of small means, to aid them in the pursuit of inexpensive and at the same time enticing and well aprved meals. I advise them to study what modern science since Liebig has done for cookery, and in the absence of such study I give hints about a rational way of providing for the daily feeding of tbe individual." A feature of the book is the estimate of food values as each food material is mentioned for tho first time—a practical application of a much talked of theory that will be appreciated by every progressive household pro\Hder.—New York Times.

of a damp day or of such- evenings-ns-come even at the summer's height. In addition to this scheme, if you are in: the country, where big brandies of flowering trees or of fine ornamental leaves can easily be found, you cannot do better than stand a large, deep vase upon* the hearth and keep it constantly well filled. If tho branches are ample and you keep the vase filled up with water, they will not require too frequent change. A box fitted to tho hearth to contain ferns and other growing things that love the shade is an excellent scheme. If these are not available, a low folding screen of simple make may be stood upon the hearth, or the Japanese folding fr.u screens are also effective.

Japanese umbrellas, the New York Recorder says, are used by many people, if we may judge by the number, sold, anil make about as good decoration as anything of the sort. Select a combination of colors in harmony with your mantel drapery, cut tho handle off short and then simply arrange it so that the blackened bricks and the unused grate are hidden behind its rich colors and circular shape. Or, better than all and more artistic than anything to be found in the shops, follow in the footsteps of an artist of repute. Elave aboard liko an old time fireboard fitted to the open space. Then etch upon it with a "poker." or more properly a pjTograplier's tool, some effective and appropriate design. Tho rich, warm, brown tints that you will obtain harmonize with every sheen of color, and the solidity of the panel gives a hue that no bizarre arrangement of umbrollas or paper fans can possibly attain.
