HER EMANCIPATION.

Woman's

radical change in

EDU-

CATION NECESSARY.

fag?K

•he Should Be a Worker and Should Be Permitted From Childhood to Develop Her Individuality and'.Acquire Knowledge as a Boy Does.

Some one quoted Dr. Stanton Coit the other day as saying that New York girls are butterflies, possessing about as much Itability as that giddy insect and as changeable as the colors of the chameleon.

These terrible sentiments Dr. Coit quite disavowed in an interview, but he did express some views in which all women and all men except bachelors will be profoundly interested. Perhaps one need not make an exception even of the bachelors, for Dr. Coit himself belongs to the great unmarried, and he at least is decidedly interested In the subject. "In the first place," said Dr. Coit, "the subject of the emancipation of women has not really been seriously taken up sinre John Stuart Mill's book on "The Subjection of Women'appeared. It has been agitated by groups of people who were interested in some Hpecial feature of the question and who uiiubt bu called faddist*. But the whole Hubject has not been taken hold of with serious effort. The great trouble is in the training of women. Their defects are those of education and environment, not of nature. Tolstoi writes of the manner in which a girl is brought up with the sole idea that she is to please her master—man. She is taught to be alluring, in one way or another, by her beauty, or her music, or her wit. And the aim of it all is to catch some man. "Now, really, the same thing is even more true of the American girl, because on the continent it is the parents who arrange the marriages. The girl is scarcely considered in the arrangements. In this country, however, she must win the man herself without much assistance. As a consequence our American girls are the most alluring, the most fascinating, brilliant, alert and full of esprit of any in the world. But, for all that, they are not more e/Iicient. Take an English woman. An American woman does not perform the high civic functions which her English sister does neither are our American women successful housekeepers. They are proverbially inefficient in that direction. They have failed in all these years to solve the servant question, and they are growing to see less and less of their children and to delegate their care and training to nurses and governesses. "It is the education which is at fault. Suppose a boy was brought up with the sole purpose of making him attractive to some woman. But, no. He is permitted to develop his own individuality. He is allowed to do things and say things 'because he is a boy,' while the girl is always hushed up. It is terrible how.women are kept in long clothes long past the time for walking, to use one of Mrs, Browning's expressions. "It may tie asked what her object in life might be if it were not matrimony. Is she tne equal of man and able to have a career outside of the home? To this it might be answered that the most stupid men have careers, and therefore even if women were no cleverer than the most stupid men they, too, could have careers. They could be scrubwomen, if they could be nothing better, and by settling upon their work they could'go on and fill their lives with the interests with which a man Alls his. It isn't strange that at present ft woman's sole object in life is matrimony. How else is she to make a living? I think that women should become workers. Say that a woman marries at 25 (she ought not to marry earlier). There are 10 years, from 15 to 25, during which she is capable of earning her own living. Take out the next 15 years fcr chihl rearing. The woman is then 40, her children are in .school, and she is free during the day. She is riper in mind and experience and is more fitted than ever before to perform valuable service in in dustrhil and civil nITairs. From that tinu until she is TO she should be a worker, it is better fur Iter and for society. Taking out the 1") years for the rearinu of children, there are 4f years when she may be a member of the industrial world. "When a woman marries, she should have some means of earning her living. It may be said that she belongs to the industrial part of society, because she keeps her husband's Iioiim and takes eare of the children. But she does not in reality, been use she does not work for him as tdie would for an employer, lie is not free to di,*.charge her if she does not do her work well, and she cannotwork for some one else if he does not pay her. Thereshould be some arrangement by which a certain portion of the man's wages should le set aside for herand left at his employer's for her to draw. I have seen so many, many cases where a husband spends his money in drink, or in gambling, or in so'mething else, while the poor wife is powerless to prevent it. "1 am not at all sure that the problem should not be solved in another way. When a woman is rearing children, what is she doinuf She is performing a civic function, just as much as the schoolteacher or the instructor who trains the soldiers and sailors of the country. If that is the case, why Rhonld she not be paid for her services and care be taken to see that they are properly done? It would result in the rearing of better men and women, as well as the payment of that unpaid class, the mothers. "People will ask if all this liberty for women will not result in a general laxity of customs and morals, but there I fall back on my lelief in woman's nature. 1 believe she is liner, purer, more delicate than man, and I believe that, by this increased liberty to women men will be put where they will be judged by the same standard. If itis wrong for a man to smoke, it. is wrong for a woman to smoke, and if there is no harm in a man's smoking then there is wo harm in a woman's smoking. The only way in which to have absolute freedom is to establish one standard by which the morals of men and women shall be judged. Kvory restraint, put upon man's laxity mean* added liberty for woman."— New York Sun.

High Heeled Boots.

It has been stated that a young lady went pn5 day to an oculist with a trouble Id heiTeyes which threatened frightful results. She was already in a state where reading was out of the question, and other entertainment was fast becoming a torment. The oculist looked at her with his professional wisdom, asked her various

questions, and then suddenly amazed her

by asking her to. put out her foot. The

toot, in its kid boot, with a wicked little fcigh heel, was thrust forth. The doctor

that there is the possibility that with that instrument of torture constantly at work in the center of the foot, where so many delicate nerves and tendons lie that are so intimately connected with all the other delicate nerves of the body, there must presently come disarrangements and disease that may work fatal mischief with the health.—New York Recorder.

,1 Mother's Influence. Early influences will leave their mark on later day actions. The training that a mother gives impresses the maturer actions, though sometimes it is hard to find even a trace of the wood in the superabundance of evil that has been acquired in willful strayings from the path marked out by the tender guide.

Of one thing we may be certain. Whatever good there is in us was imbibed from the teachings of childhood whatever bad is a personal acquirement by no "means to be commended. Mothers are always the purest, sweetest and best beings on the face of the earth. No one can ever take their place, and no one could even copy successfully their loving forbearance and gentle guidance. The person who is blessed with a mother away into old age is happy indeed, for that anchor restrains without hampering the fragile vessel anxious to sail forth into the troubled waters.—Philadelphia Times.

The Use or Boiled Water.

"Cook your water as you do your food," is the advice of a well known physician. This is really not difficult to manage if the affair is systematized, and when properly filtered and aerated boiled water is as bright, sparkling and agreeable to the taste as any other. There are filters that come especially for aerating water as well as filtering it, and if servantJtu-e accustomed to fill the filter regularly the daily provision of water in this way becomes as much a part of the household machinery as the cooking, and one has always the satisfaction of knowing that water prepared in this way is perfectly safe. It must be borne in mind, however, that the temperature of water just brought to a boil is not sufficient to destroy bacteria. Thirty minutes steady boiling is the rule.

Mourning Veils.

Theuse of nun's veiling for mourning veils is almost universal. One reason assigned for its wide supplanting of the traditional crape is that it is lighter and therefore less cumbersome. This is a mistake. It is softer and its drapery more manageable, but it has not by any means the buoyancy of crape, and every woman who has ever worn it knows how heavily and persistently it drags from the head.

A remedy for this dragging is to incline the head forward after the long end of the veil is thrown back, and pin it fast to the collar of the dress or coat at the back. Use a small black safety pin. When the shorter end is thrown back, the pin is concealed, and the weight of the veil is taken from the bonnet and head.—New York Correspondent..

The Insurance or Women.

Here is a singular fact that reflects rather badly upon our lords and masters. Among the insurance people there is constant controversy as to the advisability of taking risks on women's lives. Very conservative companies reinse them in toto, while others issue such policies under certain reservations and restrictions. For example, no company will HJistire a wife's life in favor of her husband, while nine-tenths of the policies issued to nun are for the benefit of their wives. When cross questioned on this point, an oi'icer of a great life insurance concern evaded an answer, but finally confessed that they feared man's abusing their opportunities. 1 simply state facts and leave individuals to draw conclusions.— American V.\ otuan.

Woman's Influence.

When women talk of the decay of chivalry in men, they forget that uieu are, to a great extent, what women make them. Men are the exact reflection of their wives and sisters and mothers. Through the history of the character oft he women of that time we have a certain knowledge of the women of the era.

As it. is impossible for the fountain to rise higher titan its source, so it is impossible for men to rise higher than their wives, mother and sweethearts. So when women begin to realize the vast influence they exert they will not complain of tinlack of chivalry in men when they do nothing to call forth that chivalry, devotion and respect.- Ptuladeiphia Press.

SitHttfh It. Anthony.

"American women," says Miss Maude Banks. General X. P. Banks' daughter, "do liot realize what they owe to Miss Susan B. Anthony. When she began to work for their advancement, those were days when the usual newspapers would describe htir addresses and meetings under some such headlines as 'Cackling Hens.' The tears were in her eyes as she talked about it. Now, if it had not been for what she and a few other women did, I couldn't enjoy my particular desire of earning money and having it for my very own under all circumstances."

llow to Touch tTp tlt« White Hair*. Now that every woman must appear to be young, whatever her age, gray hair is more unpopular than ever, and women who haw* passed their first youth use many devices to overcome this first sign of encroaching time. "**'1 .have found out a capital way of touching up white hairs," said a youngish oldish matron quoted by an exchange "Ordinary tincture of iron put on with a camel's hair brush will uot stain the skin and turns these horrid little evidences either brown or black, according to the number applications."

LOOKS SAVED HER.

Young Woman With Beautiful Hair Ilutl a Peculiar Way of Stealing.

A young lady employed by a gold and silver smith in New York has only her good looks to thank for the fact that si was allowed to resign without bein prosecuted for theft. She has an extraor-

hair, which she al-

The young lady had kept her hai el re as an he a would frequently pass her fingers throiv it ca8ually,a3 though it were a matter habit. By the process she accumulate a good deal of gold dust in her hair ai. sometimes dropped some diamond as well. Every night she combed ui. her locks with the smallest of too. combs, carefully collected the peculiar., purloined treasure trove and sold it wiu. out any difficulty. She broke down completely when taxed with the offeuai made restitution as far as she was ahl and her tears and promises were so in fuse that she was then allowed to dep in peace, although her employers some what inconsistently took measures prevent' her obtaining further employment in the business in which she was an expert.—New York Cor.

GOLD FIND IN GEORGIA.

Rediscovery or the Mine Worked by Dei Soto and His Followers 300 Years Ago.

Mr. W. C. Padget, a sawmill man operating a mill in the mountains northeast of this place, has discovered some interesting relics in the way of stone mortars and other implements. Mr. Padget secured the services of Professor Clark, an old mining engineer, to pros pect the place. In one of the excavations they discovered the spur of a quartz vein, which they went down for a bit. It proved better than they had fancied They found gold sticking in the quartz in plenty, visible to the naked eye. Professor Clark said: "It is a valuable find, beyond doubt I believe it to be the exact spot where De Soto and his followers located and mined for gold and silver 800 years ago. There is every evidence to prove this. The remains of a large fort, the old excavations, some of which have trees growing in them 200 years old, the cool ing utensils and the other relics hewn from the solid stone. All this proves conclusively the site of an ancient mine. As to the mineral deposit, there are seven well defined veins that are legitimate.in every sense, having a well defined igneus granite foot wall rock and overhanging slate top wall running northeast and southwest, dip east southeast."—Ellijay (Ga.) Dispatch.

"FREELAND PIONEERS.

They Have Gono to Find Their Valley or Eden Iu the African Wilderness.

Dr. Theodor Hertzka's plan to found an ideal commonwealth in east Africa is being carried into effect with great rapidity. :Late in February the English members of the pioneer expedition to Mount Kenia left London for the continent, and a week ago the pioneer corps sailed fQr Mombasa, on the east African coast. Their ultimate object is to organize a colony in which land and capital will be free, and everybody will be well clothed, well fed, well sheltered and well educated. Their immediate object ia to explore the land round tl^ir so called valley of Eden, on Tana ri\*r, and to select and limit exactly the territory which the colony or commonwealth of Freeland is to occupy.

Dr. Hertzka has been exceptionally successful in obtaining powe* "ul patronage for his ventursome enterprise. Not only has the British government granted him land and moral support, but the Austrian authorities have also given th? little band of reformers much encour ment and some money. The Royal Museum of Natural History in Vienna, foi instance, has presented the pioneer expedition with the apparatus and instruments for procuring information and collections of the flora and fauna of the valley of Eden.

The Royal and imperial Military and Geographical institute of Vienna, the South Kensington museum and other societies have also given practical proof of their interest in the explorations. All fresh knowledge will be promptly communicated to the Royal Geographical and other societies. Among other things the Freelanders have set themselves to do is to institute a regular service of small steamboats from the mouth of the river Tana to tlje limit of navigation, about SoO miles, and to carry on experiments in the domestication of the elephant and zebra.

J. G. B. and Royalty.

A gentleman just returned to London from the racing and other festivities at Cannes calls my attention to a social feature of the royal gayeties in the past fortnight which will be of special interest to Americans. One of the first acts of the Prince of Wales on his arrival at the Riviera was to make a personal cal1 upon a private citizeu of the United States. Two days later the prince invited him to lunch, an invitation which the American was unable to accept, because he himself was that day entertaining exEmpress Eugenie. Grand Duke Michel and other royal guests. It is a fact well known in all courts and salons on tli' continent thf.t no untitled individual in all Europe i3 so cordially welcomed in the most exclusive circles of royalty and aristocracy as this man. His name is James Gordon Bennett.—New York Sun's London Letter.*

Hoods Sarsaparilla is absolutely unequalled as a blood purifier and strengthening medicine. It is the ideal spring medicine. Try it.
