Uulqae' Idea.
The Coming Woman—XJghta Mid Complexions—Sw«jt Bn»th—J nil* Marlowe on Beauty. Mrs. Eulol^a A. Wilson, appointed by Oovernor Build a member of the board of trustees of the State Normal school, lives at 534 Eighteenth street, Oakland. Mrs. Wilson is principal of the Tomesoal district school, which position she has held for ten years, and she is prominent In educational circles in Alameda county.
Mrs. Wilson was, beforo her marriage, Miss Eulalia A. Terry of Stockton, and she and Jim Qadd were playmates in childhood. Mrs. Wilson says that the picture of the governor that appeals to hep the most is the one which reprints him as the curly haired lad.
It was Enlalia Terry's ambition to go to the university, but few girls went to oollege in those days, and she has had to take her compensation in inspiring other girls to go to college. On graduation from the Stockton high school she went to the normal school, where she took the full course and was graduated. As a graduate of the Institution she is particularly fitted to act as a member of the board. Mrs. Wil-

MRS. EULALIA A. WILSON.
son taught ten years in San Franoisco, part of tho time aB assistant to ex-State Superintendent Anderson, and has always been known as a remarkably good teacher. In Temesoal she has nine teachers under hor and has built up a school from most unpromising material. She has hold her position for ton years, through successive changes of trustees, some of whom wore professedly hostile to a woman principal upon their election.
Mrs. Wilson was secretary of the committee that prepared the California educational exhibit at Chicago, and tho work of her pupils at the Midwinter fair attracted muoh attention. It was therefore for other reasons as well as for personal friendship that Mrs. Wilson was appointed.
After his election Mrs. Wilson wrote to her old friend, and the answer to that letter was received in tho same envelope with hor official appointment. The position is not a salariod one, and Mrs. WilBon will retain her old position as well. Of course her appointment will bring prestige to her school and make her more of a power in the Alameda oounty schools than over. An odd coincidence is that Mr. Randall, who was principal of the Stockton high school when Mrs. Wilson was a student thero, is now a teaohor in tho normal school where his former pupil will go as a trustee.
Mrs. Wilson was first notified of the appointment by a friend, who read it in the papor, and soon after the letter arrived. She says that the first thought which ooourred to hor when reading it was not the honor of the appointment to herself nor tho gracious act that the governor had dono to all tho women in the state, but a rementbranco of Stockton playdays. Her eyes filled with tears because her small boy friend had not forgotten her In these busy 20 years.
In appearance Mrs. Wilson is very attractive. Sho has gray eyes and light hair, dimples and fine teeth and a radiant smile. Sho looks very young and has not tho stereotyped faoe of the schoolteacher. She Is of medium height, plump and of exceedingly good figure. Sho does not disdain tho art of dressing well. In mannor she is exceedingly vivacious and magnetic.
Such a woman has naturally a marked influence over tho teachers and pupils in her school. She believes in woman suffrage, and bo!tig pretty and very much of a woman has won many people to her way of thinking.
Sho is a woman of artistio taste, tact, quick and correct judgmont and possesses rare executive ability. She seems a very representative woman to receive tho first distinguished consideration that any California woman has over been given at the hands of tho governor of tho state.—San Francisco Chronicle.
Ajwoeiated Designer*.
A woman's olub that does much goc3 in this city without making any noiso is tho Society of Associated Designers, whose main office is in the Bible house. Prior to its foundation in 1890 there was no organisation among tho numerous artists of this class and no place which they could regard as headquarters. To change this condition of affairs was the work of a group of public spirited and broad minded woxnon, among whom wore the present officers, Cornelia A. Hopkins, president, and Adele Honrdoquln, secretary. The olub has throe kinds of members—graduate members, who have been graduated from come competent school of design associate members, who have not been graduated from any such school, bnt whoso work entities them to recognition as artists, and "Junior members," who are beginners desirous of taking advantage of tho facilities offered by the society.
The olub rcoeivos the work of its members and sells it on a small commission. It gives advice and instruction In practical and technical work. Its membership Is several hundred stro- and Includes artist artisans in ouuiK^as industries. Hero area few of tho Umg list of designs tb«y have on exhibition: ics fur silk goods, ootton and other textile* la ©arpot*, rut***, druggets, hangings, curtains, l:i.orust.i, Unoteum, oilcloth, wall paper, par...atari", tiles, tiling, enameled brick, utitsalc-. stained and decorated gifts*, china, pore lain, Jewelry, gold, silver and pia ware, book covers, c—rs, menu cards, repousse and -tic
Many of the members confine their efforts to a single fjwcialt.v others' try several, while a few of great versatility Mem to excel in every field. No matter bow
fashions change, thero laalwayaft good demand for these nrtiatio kinds of work. They fetch excellent prices and enable the designer to live Ih every comfort, if not in affiuonoe. A few of tho designers, who diaplAy particular aptitude in some large industry, mako a very handsome living. Tho growing taste for the fine arts ln3reuses the demand for both work and workers, so that the society looks forward with pleasure and satisfaction.-— Margherita Arlina Hanun in Now York Mai) and Express.
Her Unique Idea, isfe
A ciever up to date New Yorfe woman looking about for an oooupation found she sould make a plaoo for herself and money At the same time by undertaking to buy books and find references for men of business. As a result she is today quite the most unique book agent in the United States. Her business has grown, and with It her income, She is a charming, well dressed young person, with ah ever present fund of information. But the story, In her own language, is as follows: "I have opened my office in the very heart of tho busy district of town. I have personally solicited the patronage of businessmen, making lawyers a specialty, fori find my bost revenue cornea from that quarter. Books on dentistry, medioine, politics, naval and army proceedings, congressional reports, files of old newspapers, French, German and English soientifio works are all in my lina Volumes it would take a busy man weeks to look up I know where to get and place in his office inside of a hour. "Suppose he doesn't care to buy the book. Then I purchase It and charge so much for the reading. Probably a dozen men would have recourse to its pages in two weeks, and I would be the finanolal gainer. True, they could go to a library, but these institutions are miles up town, and my office is within touoh. ''Another phase of the business oomes in looking up references. A man will send a note over by a messenger explaining the nature of the point to be investigated. 'Will I send him the answer by noon?' I know just where to go and take down full notes on the subject, so I comply and levy a tariff for iny time."
That the business is a paying one is proved by her cozy office rooms in one of the most expensive down town buildings and neat gowns and good spirits. It is no small thing for a woman to create a place for herself, especially in afield toward which so much prejudice exists.—New York Letter in Atlanta Journal.. ,v*
The Coming Woman.
We have buried the new woman, the Chicago Mail insists, after wearing her threadbare, the rents revealing all the pitiful pretenses of her made to order" composition. We know her to be a thing of shreds and patohes. We dread her no longer.
Victories, however, often cost us dear, and from the ashes of the new woman comes forth the twentieth century girl, the "coming woman," equipped as never were her sisters for the frantio struggle of increasing ^competition. Her manifold knowledge, quickened by her woman's instinct, gives her undreamed of perceptions. Her clear sighted vision roads men's souls at a glance. Understanding all, she can forgive all.p2^ffM"
Sho is a wisbVlrgin with lamp In hand making luminous, tho dark abode of despair. She is strong and true as steel, but she can stab, and her vengeance is swift and sure. She is loyal, frank and as unaffected as a man, for she has annexed man's good points without losing a feather of her womanly charm. She is man's best friend and equal in all things. Physically she is often his superior, for if women have thought fit to make capital out of their physical weakness, they never found, aught but men to believe in the fallaoy. No woman believes that a man is capa-, ble of enduring a day's shopping. Could a man stand for hours before a pierglass and undergo the martyrdom of having his olothes pinned in here and let out there while the fitter tries to get rid of his arms by tucking them away into Impossible posltions?
There Is no doubt that women's brains are better balanced'tban men's, for they are not so easily upset by little things. They baby's crying, the stupidity of the servants, the bluntness of a carving knife or the underdone condition of a joint will oause a man's temper'to flara up In a blue flame or smolder in sulks—things that woman has to boar all day, you know.
Yes, the oomlng woman may bo depended upon to be a being of oool brain and warm heart. j_
Eights and Complexions.
•'I think an artistically shaded lamp is the greatest beautifier a woman can select," said an entertaining young hostess, whose rooms, aglow with mellow lamplight, called forth thp remark. "It'san art, I assuro you, to select sostheiically shaded lights, but onco It is acquired, a clever woman can turn it to excellent account for hor own beautification. I don't mean to say that by a certain tint of chiffon or a peculiar drapery effect she can straighten out a stub nose or mold a big month into a Cupid's bow, but she can lo a great deal toward accentuating or toning down nature's own coloring. "For instance, you take a sallow skinned woman and dump hor dowu besido a big blue shaded lamp, and—hideous! Can't you see for yourself how tho yellow deepens and spreads in offect over hor countenanced "Then bring a palo faced girl into the range of* a green globed light, and whatever hint of tho existence of blood beneath hor skin there may have been, it takes flight instantly. Give her, however, the softened glow which filters through a fluff of rosy chiffon and watch ber dull obeeks take life and color. "A florid skin tones dawn in the light of a creamy globed lampvwhero It would deepen to purple If brought near one of blue. A goiden glow settles caressingly upon blond locks, while the metes striking effect I have ever seen was brought about by seating a black haired, pink skinned woman amid, a nest of bronso colored cushions half revealed by the light that sifted through a dull green shade."—Exchange. fM
Sweet Breath.

alia Marlowe on Beauty.
Surely no speoimen of the tyrant man, no matter how abject and worthless a creature be may be, will dispute the assertion that nothing is more beautiful than a beautiful woman, recently said Julia Marlowe. Is it not, then, a laudable ambition for every woman to desire to be beautiful? Admitting thatf, is It not the duty of every woman to try to be beautiful?
Time that a woman devotes to making herself attraotive is certainly time well' epont. Beauty,
or
whatever share of it
one may possess, has as muoh claim upon our attention and care as physical strength or intellectuality. Woman is largely dependent upon man in all the relations of life, and it is therefore in some degree essential to her welfare that she should render herself attraotive in his sight.
It is to be regretted that the unnatural methods of living and the artificial habits whioh civilization entails upon us should be so largely inimical to beauty.' A woman who danoes in orowded rooms till 3 or 8 o'clock In the morning, tightly laced in a decollete costume, who passes from the heated air of the ballroom through the ohilly night air to her carriage, who overloads her digestive organs with rioh food and who neglects physical and mental exercise cannot long hope to retain real beauty. It is romping over the hills, roving along the beach in soft, puro sea air, retiring early and living "upon a diet of brown bread and wholesome fruits that will paint the lily and the rose in woman's cheeks and make her truly beautiful.
A Bishop's Daughters.
Bishop Potter's daughters were all educated with a view to doing at least one thing well. One girl became an expert pianist, another is an artist,'and a third has trained herself to the duties of secretary. She not only answers her busy father's letters, but receives callers, answers all questions, which pour in by the hundreds upon a man in his position, arranges appointments and fulfills all the duties of an expert office woman, relieving her father from muoh care.—Woman's Journal.
Harriet Beecher Stowe.
Among the eccentricities that Harriet Beecher Stowe is said -to have developed in her old age is a detestation of all reference to her famous book, "Unole Tom's Cabin.'' She can stand no allusion„however veiled, to her noted novel, and her friends and relatives are very dhreful to prevent the mention of the book in h?E presence.
The beauty seeker must avoid growing "settled" in figure as sho would avoid the plague. To this end sho must exercise every day, bonding her body in every coi^ oeivable direction from the waist and performing wpnderful acts in poising and kioking. •••_
A woman who finds it is not "good form" to get Into a rage watches herself bo that she does not at least betray that she is in one. Presently the calm expression in reflex aotlon begets a calm spirit.
Womeb are tho poetry of the world in the same sense as the stars are the ppetry of heaven. Clear, light giving, harmonious, they are the terrestrial planets that rule the destinies of mankind.

THE flUSCULAR SYSTEM of every weary, thin or thin blooded person does its work with constant difficulty and fatigue. They feel "worn," or tired out, "run-down" or nervous.
Feeble people who are dyspeptic, find that exercise after a meal is sure to cause lessened power to digest food—because there is so little blood, and what there is, is carried off from the gastric organs to the muscles.
What Is needed is plenty of blood, and that of the right kind. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery makes pure, rich blood, and to rain in blood is nearly always to gain in wholesome flesh up to the healthy standard.
Every one should have a certain surplus of flesh to meet the emergencies of sickness to resist the attack of consumption, grip, malaria and fevers. Thin blooded are always getting sick, and none of people the org
organs of the body can get along without the food they require tor work, which is, pure Mood. To gain and to keep strength and flesh is the secret of health, usefulness and happiness. With new blood and refreshed nerves a confident feeling of returning health comes also.
Nervuas manifestations, such as sleeplessness, nervous debility and nervous rostratjoa are in nine cases out often "the rv of the starved nerves for food." If you f. i! the nerves on pure rich blood the "«y—-vtotns will cease. It is bad •. the nerves to sleep vrith sot. -y mixtures, coca compounds or ete what is needed is a blood

have
withdrawn from tbe contest over tho estate of Thomas H. Blythe, although 1 atill maintain that I am his widow," gaid Mrs. Alios Edith Diokason-Blythe the other day to a San Franoisoo reporter. "So far as I am oonoerned, I have nothing to do with tbe Blythe estate now. I have signed all the neoessary papers, and I believe it is now settled, so far as I am oonoerned. The papers were signed in the home of Miss Cherry in tbe western addition, and I have not been there sinoe. I do not know the nature,of all the papers, but they were quitolaiiuB and releases and revocations of con tracts. "Eight months ago I was offered a cash settlement of my olaim—that I might have $175 per month for the remainder of my life. My lawyer advised ine not to accept this, as he said we could do better. I was willing to acoept, and I am sorry now that I did not do ao. As I did not reoeive my allowance last Deoember I deoided to aot for myself, and I have done so. "The consideration I have received is very email—practically nothing. It is about $1,000, and I Bhall no longer draw a monthly allowanoe. "I expect to go into the country, and I do not care if I never see San Franoisoo again. It contains tbe ploasantest and most miserable memories of my lifa Before my husband took that trip to Mexico everything was bright and happy, and no young woman's future ever looked brighter, but sinoe his death life has not been worth living. The experiences of the last 12 years have undermined my health, and I just long f£r some of my former strength." The withdrawal of Mrs. Alioe Edith from the contest, however, will render further proceedings unnecessary.
