WOMAN AND HOAIE.

GIRLS IN BUSINESS MUST, UNDERSTAND WHAT IS REQUIRED.

The Truest Hospitality—Six Reasons Why Women Work—Exercise For Women. Bottle Fed Babies—Why Some Women

Grow Old—Slang In Dress.

Bat, girls, if yon don't mean to make a thorough business of the occupation you have chosen, never, never, never begin to »i be occupied at all. Half finished work will & do for amateurs. It will never answer for professionals. The bracket you are sawing f|i *pr aNew Year's present can hang a little f-i crooked on its screws, and you will be forgiven for the love's sake found therein by the dear hearts to which you offer it, but the trinket carved for sale in the Sorrento f' rooms must be cut as true as a rose leal

You can be a little shaky as to your German declensions in the Schiller club, which you join so enthusiastically after leaving school, and no great harm ever come of it but teach Schiller for a living, and for each dative case forgotten you are so much money out of pocket.

People who pay for a thing demand thorough workmanship or none. To offer incomplete work for complete market price & is to be either a cheat or a beggar. The terrible grinding laws of supply and demand, pay and receive, give and get, give 5 no quarter to shllly shally labor. The excellence of your Intentions is nothing to the point. The stress of your poverty has ifnot the slightest connection with the case. & An editor will never pay you for your poem because you wish to help your mother. No customer will buy her best bonnet or her wheat flour of you because you are unable to pay your rent. When you have entered the world of trade you have entered a world where tenderness and charity and personal

Interest are foreign relations. Not "for for friendship's sake," nor "for pit^s sake," nor "for chivalry's sake," runs the great rallying cry of this great world—but only "for value received."

It is with sorrow and shame, but yet with hope and courage, that I write it. There is reason for the extensive complaint made by men that women do not work thoroughly. I am afraid that till timeand trouble shall have taught them better they will not. Is it because they never have been trained? Is it because they expect to be married? That it is not in the least because they cannot, we know, for we know that some of the most magnificently accurate work in the world has been done by women.—Elizabeth Stuart Phelps in St. Nicholas.

The Truest Hospitality.

Hospitality shares what it has. It does not attempt to give what it has not. The finest hospitality, it has been said, is that which welcomes you to the fireside and permits you to look upon the picture of a home life so little disturbed by your coming that you are nt once made to feel yourself ap$rt of the little symphony—the rare bit of color Just needed to complete the harmonic combination. With this flattering fact impressed upon your memory you will hardly be able to recall the material adjuncts of the occasion. It is a sign of a gross nature to measure hospitality by the loaves and fishes, forgetting the miracle that goes

lwith

them. And it is equally a mistake for a host to be afraid to offer humble entertainments when richer offers are beyond his means.

To a refined perception, "the life is more than tho meat," and the personality of the 'host, not the condition of his larder, decides whether or not it is an honor to be his guest. Delightful though it be to be .able to afford one's guest a rare and beautiful entertainment, one must dismiss the Jdea that a graceful and acceptable hospitality depends on material things. SSr

Launfal, sharing his crust with the beggar '.'at tbe gate, was still Sir Launfal. The impoverished hostess may preside at her frugal board with the spirit and the manner of a queen,.whereas the coarse fibered vulgarian vainly heaps his platters with choice est game and rarest fruits, the while he serves the banquet like the churl that he is.—New York Advertiser.

Six Reasons Why Women Work. "Why do women work?" asks Walter •Besant, and then he replies that there are six principal reasons:

Because their intellectual activity will not allow them to rest at home. Such a woman, for instance, was George Eliot. There are intellectual openings for them In pvery direction. A woman of this kind may study medicine, science, history she may teach as well as study she may write she may become a journalist or an editor she may lecture. Any of these lives are better to such a brain thah the old fashioned social round and domestic duties, the embroidery, the piano playing and the small arts. These are the happy workers butthese are not the average.

Because they must earn money somehow. Amone these are the unhappy workers, the unwilling workers, who, so long as they have to work for a living, miss the life they would prefer.

Because they want to make a little more money for dress or for spending. A very considerable class.

Because they have taken up a oause and feel called upon to speak, act, write and work for it.

Because they have become "advanced" women, and they want, above all things, to show that they are as good as the men.

Because their home lives are so deadly dull and .unsocial and lonely and vacuous that they want a ohange.

Exercise For Women.

A celebrated physician, on being asked "What is the exercise most conducive to fhyatcal be*t$y in women?" replied very decidedly, "Walking."

Tvnals he declared to be too violent, and too much of it is likely to lengthen the and make the height of the shoulders

ding renders women awkward in their They gradually come to move with plunging kind of motion the reverse of graceful, and frequently cultivate weakness back which makes them hold themselves tedl*

Rising is one sided, and women who have habitually .hip higher than the other tin htg~-

Croquet really does not give fexerdse, and after a survey of all tbe ways he knew in which women toke physical exercise he ^considered none so conducive to health and beauty of form as walking.

It ought to he peowvend in and done in all but the worst weather and particularly 'Tin winter. f* It is the cheapest and safest toa A wom%'toa may be hart with a hall at tennis, in jurrd by horse or bicycle or receive a Wow on tho head from a club at golf, which Is now being indulgedfcn by women. jJ S Bottle Fed BsUWi

The coea patton ot tba wet nam h*s been very much interfered with latterly br DM Introduction of thenumsrooa bsJjy feeds

and the different treatments of cow's milk to suit it tb the delicate- digestion of the infant deprived of its natural sustenance. Mother's milk has been analyzed and its elements reproduced in a compound that has proved very satisfactory and that is sold under various names, with slight variations of combination. Sterilized condensed, peptonized and the latest sortmodified milk, which is an eliminationor modification of milk elements to suit individual babies—all these further combine to make the wet nurse leas and less in demand, and physicians depend upon her in very much fewer instances than formerly.

Another change in the treatment of bottle or hand fed babies is the method frequently recommended nowadays by physicians of alternating sever*foods. Formerly to change in the smallest particular the preparation of the accepted food for any baby was looked upon as most unwise, and if the little one was fed upoo cow's milk the greatest pains were taken to secure the supply always from the same animal. Experience has proved, however, that a delicate infant will thrive, and sometimes only thrive, with a varied diet, needing occasionally a range of four or five foods, on each of which it maybe fed for 24 or 48hours before changing to another.—New Ydft: Times.

Why Some Women Grow Old.

One reason why the average Woman wears out, grows old and plain before her husband is that through a mistaken idea of duty she lays out for herself at the beginning of her married life a scheme or plan of duty and employment for her time, every hour filled, with rare and short periods for relaxation.

This she follows religiously for years, feeling that she has done her duty, because every household event occurs regularly and on time, while she soon becomes merely a machine, a thing without life of itself or volition. She settles into her rut and goes round and round on the same track everlastingly.

Can any woman keep brightness, originality of thought and speech, or even mere prettiness, with such a life, and without those things how can she keep her husband and growing children full of the loving admiration, which is the strongest chain by which she can bind them to her? How bright and jolly the neighbor's wife seems when she calls! In nine cases out of ten it is because the surround lugs and talk of your home are variety to her and rouse her to originality and brightness of speech. In her own rut she may be as dull 4s ditch water.—Donahoe's Magazine. ,,

Slang In Dress..

A puzzled girl says, "How can I be slangy In my dress?" I'll tell you, and then you can see whether you are or not. The girl who, because lace frills are fashionable, has her frills wider than anybody else, who accentuates the wldtn of her skirts, the brim of her hat, who, because pink roses are fashionable, has the greatest number of pink roses and the deepest in tone, this girl is slangy in dress. She is the girl whose dress tires you to look at. She is the giri who, the very minute she enters a room, makes you conscious of her presence by the noise of her skirts, and who gives you an overpowering sense of her having too much to wear. That is one type.

Another is the girl, who, seizing the pretty fashion of cloth skirts, soft blouses and pretty jackets, makes it slangy by having the soft blouse developed into a loud, stiff shirt and the jacket made to look as much like a man's coat as possible. With this she wears a masculine tie, a stiff, plain hat, and unconsciously she assumes the manners of a man. But as she is not a man she does not suoceed in this.—Ladies' Home Journal.

Difficulties of Child Training. A funny commentary on the difficulties of child training was recently noted in the utterances of a small girl, who was spending the afternoon with another small girl, each of the two counting a little over 8 years to her credit in the inarch of life. The young hostess proposed playing with cards as a diversion, but was promptly rebuked by her companion, who said: "We don't play cards at our house, and I am not allowed to anywhere. It might teach my big brother to be a gambler, mamma says."

It was not 10 minutes later, however, that the little guest asked her youthful hostess if she didn't think it was fun to flirt, and on the latter's replying that she didn't know what that meant had theprooexplained to her thus: 'Why, it's getting a nice little boy off in a corner and giving him a kiss."

The astute mother, watching closely for the mote of gambling which might appear in her big son's eye, had evidently quite overlooked the very pronounced beam of coquetry in that of her little daughter.— Her Point of View in New York Times,

An KfTectlve Notebook.

A w6mkn who is noted in a very clever set for her conversational powers was com-

Surst

limented thereon. She said in a sudden of confi&ence: "1 feel almost guilty to take the praise to myself, although 1 know 1 earn it by downright hard work. Where do you suppose all my bright speeches come from? I keep a notebook ready at hand on my chatelaine, and every odd or cunning or amusing thing that I see or hear or read, and which I think I can work up into a telling sentence, phrase, anecdote, pop! it goes into my book. Then I study some telling way that 1 can put them to use. 'Of course much tact is necessary in using this bulk of material. I try to discover whom I am to meet and what their special ted or subjedt of interest may be. Then 1 lead up to appropriate topics, introducing them as adroitly as possible. I don't think," with a wistful look at her listener, "that the machinery ever shows?" 'No, my wonder remains undiminished. The machinery never shows."—Buffalo Ex-

For Bound Shoulders.

A woman physician has recommended the following movements far the cure of all exoept very "severe eases" of round shoulders, When braces are also sometimes a necessity: "1. Raise arms before your shoulder high extend arms sideways throw head back straighten head move arms forward lower arms repeat 10 times. 2. Stand erect raise arms before you rise on tiptoes, then tferpw arms as far backward as possible, idnlt again on heels and drop aran$ to side repeat 10 times. S. Raise arms, with elbow bent shoulder high, twinging palms togethin troot of ffcee then, with elbows still bait, swing both vigorously backward as £ar as possible even with the shoulders, palms turned toward. This should be repeated several times, but as the position Is somewhat fatiguing rest or change of exeraim may be made between the movements." -Boston Herald.

maker. Dressmakers need directing. TEey can't be expected to know a customer's weak or strong points as well as she should know them herself.

A Laxarioiu Lonneft

The best lounge that even the most luxuriously minded woman can have is "a frame supporting a good single width spring bed and a regular hair mattress. For about $2 a cot bed can be converted into a lounge at any carpenter's.

For the cover, various things are possible, but either an inexpensive Bagdad or an expensive Kelim rug will be satisfactory. Bagdads which are really all that can be desired may be bought for $8, while $4 will purchase a very good one. Cushions covered with silks or cretonnes that repeat the colors of the rug will give an air of artistic harmony to the lounge that no amount of money could purchase "ready made" at the furniture dealer's.—Exchange.

A Millionaire, Philanthropist. Mrs. Fred Vanderbilt is one of the most earnest and practical of New York city's philanthropists. As she does not deem it invariably necessary to let her left hand know all that her right hand finds to do, much of her good work goes unchrbnicled. There is a certain hospital in the city, however, whose sufferers could tell, a most moving tale of Mrs. Yanderbilt's kindness toward alleviating their several distresses. The Louise Home, a permanent boarding house for self supporting women, in East Tenth street-, is another of Mrs. Yanderbilt's enterprising charities, as it was established at her special instigation and is almost altogether under her control.—New York Recorder. i'".''

Ploture Frames of Ribbon.

Artistic and inexpensive picture frames are made for etchings or water color drawings without glass or molding and with a most pleasing result.

Frame the etchings with three inch mats of white, then tack smoothly against the wall. Outline these mats in some pretty shade of fine ribbon (red is suitable for etchings) leaving a bare space of two or three inches around this on the wall. Now outline this space with a second row of rib bon the same color.

A group of these etchings framed with ribbon is effective and gives a finishing touch to any room. Water colors are'also very dainty when thus treated.—New York Herald. cf

The White Petticoat.

The white petticoat with a frill of lace has been regarded for generations back as the ideal garnrait, but when the lace is bedraggled and wise muslin has been soiled by oontact with dusty floors and muddy streets it loses all its poetry, becomes an eyesore and vulgarizes the entire toilet. Colored skirts have their advantages for street wear, since they do not show soil as readily as white. If the orthodox cambric petticoat is worn, provision should be made for a clean one every day in the week—that is the least number that can be worn with black boots even in dry weather, when there is only dust to soil the edges.—New York World,.

Injudicious Spending.

Many a woman who wastes each season $20 piecemeal on the most ephemeral furbelows and frillings would stand aghast at the suggestion of putting so much money in a length of good lace. Yet she could keep it from year to year, put it to uses innumerable, get out of it a hundredfold the distinction that her ribbons and ruchings afford, to say nothing of the heavenly satisfaction which such possessions bring to the truly feminine soul. Even if sip herself have not a fine feeling for lace, the envy of her fellow women will be a sweet savor unto her spirit.—Harper's Bazar.

Bat Celery Freely.

If celery were eaten freely, sufferers from rheumatism would be comparatively few. It is a mistaken idea that cold and damp produce the disease—they simply develop it. Acid blood is the primary and sustaining cause. If celery is eaten largely, an alkaline blood is the result, and where this exists there can be neither rheumatism nor gout. It should be eaten, cooked.,

!, ^Make Tour Own Style.

Worth the famous Parisian dressmaker, is quoted assaying: "Make your own style. Everything is in fashion to the fashionable woman. One woman should not wear a dress because another woman does. If a Blashed Venetian sleeve goes well with an empire skirt, wear it by all means and call it 'style fin de siecle' if you will. That does not matter if it is becoming."

iKU Buying Shoes. Women should never go in the early morning to get boots and shoes fitted. In the latter part of the day the feet are at their maximum size. Activity and standing tend to enlarge the feet. If women would remember this rule, there would not be so many complaints of shoes when worn being tight which, when fitted, seemed so comfortable,

Home and Children.

An experienced teacher used to say that he could always tell the children who lived unhappily at home. They were much more troublesome at school, and were almost always on the alert for slights and offenses, and far more difficult to control than the children who came from happy and peaceable families. "Some women dress to win envy, jealousy and admiration all at once. A few sensible woman dare to dress for neither man nor women, but for health and comfort, and women acknowledgedly over 60 sometimes dress to suit themselves."

TESTIMONIALS.

I have never seen anything act so promptly as Pheayo-Caflein in siok and nervous Headache. Many cases have been cured and not any failures reported. H. L. Farrer, Belle Yoir, N. C.

For years I have been a terrible sufferer from headache some six months ago my physician prescribed PhenyoCaffein, and since then, by their use, I have not had a severe headache, being able to stop them completely in their incipiency. J. H. Stannard, Concord, N. H.

You hit the nail on the head when you put Phenyo-Caffein on the market. They are the best thing out for headache, E. P. Jones, M. D., Orleans, Mass.

One year ago I was one of the greatest sufferers from sick and .nervous headache I ever knew. .1 no more have trouble with sick headache and seldom have even aslight headache. I attribute the great change to your Phenyo Caffein, a remedy I could not do without if it cost $5 a box. I have tried a dozen or more medicines (warranted to cure) without their even helping me. I can not praise your valuable preparation enough. Frank ,S. Schmitt, Seymour, Indiana.
