HE subject of ful daughters old as the hills, bat there are a good many old snbjects which need repeatthe ing for
gTOwiug generations—just as the old, old story of spring is repeated by the sun to the earth, century after century, and just as the waves are forever repeating the story of ebb and flow to the shore.
Charming as the American girl is acknowledged to be the widt world over, she is not infrequently a most undutiful daughter. I doubt if under any other flag which floats to the breeze can such examples of rudeness to parents be found as under the starred and striped emblem of American independence.
An only daughter of wealthy parents was indisposed and remained on her couch until midafternoon, receiving one or two friends meanwhile, ^he wore a charming silk negligee and presented a pleasing appearance of youth and sweetness as she sat propped up by white pillows, about which a devoted mother fluttered. But her charms diminished, indeed qui to vanished to my eyes, Wht^i sho called out suddenly and sharply: "Mamma, I asked you half an hour ago to bring me my slippers. I wish you wouldn't keep me waiting so." And the devoted mother apologized humbly for her negligence and seemed anxious to be forgiven.
If tho slippers had been brought and applied in the good, old fashioned manner, it would have been better for the daughter than the apology. 1 am happy to say that I know of one man who was wise enough to abruptly discontinue his attentions to a young lady—a most beautiful creature, too— whom he heard speak sharply and disrespectfully to her mother on several occasions.
The man was rich, attractive and handsome. The girl was poor and anxious to marry well. She was young and beautiful, and relatives bestowed an education and opportunities of travel upon her. The man was fascinated by her grace and charms, but he was sensible enough to realize that a girl who was an irritable and rude daughter would be an irritable and rude wife. So the courts are saved one divorce case and the lawyers are cheated of their fees by this man's timely good sense.
Of course the fact that a woman is a mother does not necessarily render her lovable, and we cannot bo blamed for not loviug the unlovable. Duty has nothing to do with one's affections, though the affect ions have a great deal to do with duty. Love cannot be coerced. It is governed by spiritual, mental and physical laws, but not by blood tieB.
Not infrequently we seo mothers
if
who
mentally and physically antagonize their daughters, but there is a spiritual law, as well as the law of good taste, Which should compel a daughter
to
be
respectful and polite to h«r mother, even
she cannot give her love or ad-
miration. I wish fond mammas would try to prevent instead of so frequently aiding the present tendency of young boys to dependence and effeminacy.
There is nothing in the social atmosphere just now to stimulate young men to much manliness of character. Women are aggressively independent and are •every day pushing themselves into places ami professions heretofore occupied by num. There is little call for the chivalric man of old, the provider and the protector.
It is not surprising that a race of inert and unambitious youths should spring up who look to a wealthy marriage as a means of support.
But at least mothers need not aid and abet this tendency to be weak and dependent by early training or lack of training.
However beautiful may be a little boy's curls, they ought to go when the first trousers come. Let the little man realixe that femiuiue locks belonged with skirt»s and in masculine garments he must be manly iu every respect. He must carry the purse and pay car fare when he goes out with niautma, and he must ask the conductor lo stop the car, or give such orders to the coachman as can be iutrusted to lii,« young lips, all with the idea of iniprtssnig upon his mind as early as possible th:tt he is a man, and therefore to N dtp* uded upou, and that he must lead, ami urt be ied, take the care, not be taken care of. Demand creates supply, and a little boy leaned upon in this way from childhood would, I believe, in most caws take pride in becoming a bulwark of strength for those dear to him as he grew older.
Que ear)not help the feeling that American motherhoHi i.« a gtx)d deal of a farce wheu such conditions exist as revealed by the death of Aimee Smith at the Hotel Victor without a sus
picion in the mind of the mother. What can mothers le thinking about, I wonder, who live under the same roof with their daughters year in and year out and yet know less of their hearts than they know of tne mental rcoods of Hagar in the wilderness or Rachael mourning for her children because they were not!
I should think it would be a mother's first pleasure and interest in life to get on intimate terms with her daughter, to obtain her confidence, to lead her to talk of herself and to lay bare her heart to one whose natural duty it should be to show sympathy and to give counsel. Where these close relations exist with mothers and daughters I do not believe it is possible for a girl to become entangled in an unfortunate love affair without the mother's knowledge. Love may go where it is sent, and the best mothered girl in the world might conceive an unwise passion, but the maternal instincts if properly alert would be aware of it, and the maternal sympathy and solicitude would avert its culminating in a tragedy.
I confess that a good, strong sentiment of disgust mingles with my pity when I read of some distressed mother of an erring daughter who declares tint she was not aware that her daughter even had an admirer.
Why do parents so quickly forget their own youth? It is incredible that the sweetest and most romantic part of life should fade from memory so wholly
benefit of as it seems to do with the majority of married people. It is because the passion of youth is a sort of intoxication, which, like the drunkenness of wine, blurs the memory.
I have observed that it is not infrequent for men who have sowed a full crop of wild oats to show both amazement and indignation when a daughter even indicates a%)ropen8ity to admire the opposite sex. Yet the laws of nature are constantly proving that daughters more frequently than sons resemble their fathers. One would think that a man who had passed through the whirlwinds of passionate youth might consider it a sacred duty to carefully guide and tenderly protect his children through a similar period, not by keeping them under lock and key, but by giving them well chosen associates and talking with them freely and wisely regarding these associations.
Beally the American fathers and mothers are droll beings. One would find them very amusing were it not that the farce they play so often ends in a tragedy.
I meta beautiful and highly cultured young woman not many years ago who impressed me as a girl with a secret or a history. She lived alone with her mother, who confessed to me that "Marie had always been a strange girl who was hard to understand. She fancied she had passed through some love affair while at school which had prematurely saddened her, though she had never mentioned it."
One day I invited the young lady to dine with me. I was quite alone when she came. Before she had been 15 minutes iu my warm rooms I discovered that she was too intoxicated to sit up. Several hours passed ere she recovered her senses sufficiently to tell me her history. A kind hearted but unwise old lady where she boarded while at school taught her to take a hot whisky "toddy" when very tired with her studies. She had acquired the taste for intoxicants, and the habit had become a fixed one. 'I think mamma suspects that I take stimulants at times," she said, "but she hus never spoken of it to me, and I have never had the courage to tell her about it or to ask her to help me to overcome the habit."
The girl made me promise solemnly not to tell her mother of the oocurrence in my rooms, as it would unnecessarily mortify her. I gave the promise only after the girl gave me her oath not to touch stimulants again. I lost sight of her for nearly a year. Then she drifted across my path again, a ruined, desperate creature, crushed with the most awful tragedy that can come into a young woman's life—a tragedy directly due to her habit of using stimulants. Of course I was sorry for the mother. And yet is pity due a mother who could live under the same roof for two or three years with a daughter who was a victim of drink without suspecting it, or, if she suspected, who felt the matter was too delicate a one to mention?
Another young girl whom I knew fell ill of a terrible complication of liver maladies. "How could yon let your daughter get into such a state?" asked the physician of the mother. "Really, doctor," the mother replied with great dignity, "I brought up my daughter to be too modest to talk to any one—even to me—of stomachs, livers and digestive organs."
So the daughter died, but the modesty of the family was sustained. ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

MAST RABIJA
AN ARTISTIC SUCCESS
Mrs. Kate Collins Has Biased the Way
a New Employment For Women.
Mrs. Kate Collins, well known as the manufacturer of drawing room novelties, dinner souvenirs, collation favors and the like, has perhaps the most artistic shop in New York. It extends over some two floors, where a number of employees are at work in the painting of china, the designing of embroideries and the gathering together of certain articles for the ornamentation of woods and decorations of toilet accessories, which are picked up in the buying season.
Mrs. Collins made her first venture in a decorated calendar which was presented to a publisher, and so pleased was be with this novelty that he ordered a number, which, when put on the market, scored a success.
About this time the students of Yale gave their yearly dance, and this designer of choice ornamental specialties received the order to make for them a class memento, and from that beginning sprang up a business which admitted her into the fashionable set.
When asocial function is in question, Mrs. Collins is generally sent for. She oilers suggestions, which are carried

out in an artistic way. This clever woman designed the favors for the Bradley Martin ball and was also the maker of the Whitney wedding ctke boxes. In the winter much of her time is spent in Washington designing souvenirs for the great balls of the season.
Mrs. Collins declares that the colors and shadings of brocade and satin are to her like beautiful music, and that the inspiration of ideas is often given by the gathering together of lace, ribbons and delicate materials whose hues are so charming and refreshing to the eye. It is said she is the first person who adopted denim for draperies and covering of furniture.
Mrs. Collins is a tall, well formed and rather distinguished looking woman of a French type, with large, dark eyes and rich complexion. She has an agreeable manner and is very modestly inclined when asked about her work. She and her sister, Mrs. Ederling, have a small but pretty studio in the same building where work is planned and artistic lines are carried out. These women labor early and late, but with all their cares are essentially feminine in their tastes and are artists who believe that simplicity of form is one of the principles of true decoration.
Ornamental Tally For Cards—A Useful Trifle.
Progressive euchre aud whist parties being the fad of the day, ev«tfy hostess endeavors to find some pretty trifle to serve as a tally, while something a little odd or unique is sure to be in demand. The advantage of the one here given lies in the fact that it may serve as a permanent tally or be used as a souvenir of the occasion. The first requisite for making is a piece of heavy sole leather 7 inches by 4 in size, which can be purchased from any shoemaker. On this the design is etched with a hot iron or etching tool, but as the work is extremely simple it can be done by any
amateur, no special tools being absolutely necessary, as is the case with larger pieces of work. An ordinary slate pencil and a spirit lamp are all that is really essential and can be mads to do the work with satisfaction. The point of the pencil, heated hot, will burn the surface of the leather to a Fcfflcient depth for the purpose, whereas wood or any hard substance the platinum point must be employed.
After etching tbe design cut slashes large enough to admit one inch ribbon, as indicated in tbe drawing. Select a golden brown tone in a good quality of satin and cut three strips each 15 inciter in length. Ou two of them paint numerals up to ten on the third the characters representing tbe four suits, hearts, spad:*, clubs and diamonds and finish tbe ends of ?ach ribbon by fringing to the depth of one baif inch. them through tbe slashes cut in tbe

A Tough Verb.
English is said to be one of the hardest languages in the world for a foreigner to learn. The verbs and prepositions are particularly puzzling. An educational journal tells of the troubles of a Frenchman with the verb "to break." "I begin to understand your language better," said my French friend, M. Dubois, to me, "but your verbs trouble me stilL You mix them up so with prepositions. "I saw your friend, Mrs. Murketon, just now," he continued. "She says she intends to break down her school earlier than usual. Am I right there?" "Break up her school, she must have said." "Oh, yes, I remember break tip school." "Why does she do that?" I asked. "Because her health is broken into." "Broken down." "Broken down? Oh, yes! And, indeed, since fever has broken up in town"— "Broken out." "She thinks she will leave it for a few weeks." "Will she leave her house alone?" "No she is afraid it will be broken —broken— How do I say that?" "Broken into." "Certainly it is what I meant to say." "Is her son to be married soon?" "No that engagement is broken— broken''— "Broken off." "Yes broken off." "Ah, I had not heard that!" "She is very sorry about it. Her sou only broke the news down to her lasp week. Am I right? I am anxious to speak English well." "He merely broke the news no preposition this time." "It is hard to understand. That young man, her son, is a fine young fel low—a breaker, I think."
A broker, and a fine fellow. Goodday!" So much for the verb "break. —Chicago Record.
Properly Qualified Teachers.
The facts, in my opinion, will admit of only one conclusion—viz, that in teaching the results are not determined by the methods employed, but by the ability of those who use them. In other words, the first place must be given to the personal equation of the teacher, while methods and devices play only a subordinate part. It seems to me, therefore, that the evils now ascribed to uncontrollable circumstances should be attributed in large part to a lack on the part of the teacher of those qualifications which are essential to success. Consequently when reasonable demands are not met within a reasonable time limit we are justified in inferring that the fault lies with the teacher and not with the pupils.
An instructive experience I once encountered will serve to illustrate this point. On leaving a olassroom in which I had heard few recitations I complimented the teacher on th# intelligence of her pupils. She repliea: "You must not give me credit for that. These children are Russians, and one can do anything with Russians." It sg happened that on the next day I visited a classroom in which the children were exceptionally dull. On this occasion the teacher remarked: "You must not blame me for their stupidity. My pupils are Russians, and one cannot do anything with Russians."—Dr. J. M. Rice in Forum.
What He Would Do.
Jinks—The idea of asking me what I'd do if I v.*as rich! The question is simply idiotic.
Filkins—Why so? Jinks—Because any one in his right mind would know that I would dfl nothing.—Brooklyn Life.

The mystery of woman-/j hood is fall of deep unanswerable enigmas. Why should women be compelled to suffer simply oecause they are womet Why is it that the source of their highest joys is at the same time the cause of their greatest wretchedness? The very attributes which make it possible for women to be happy wives and motkers also render them liable to the utmost physical misery and pain.
Tbe sufferings of body and mind caused by stme weakness of the distinctly feminine organs are so almost universal among women that the question might well be asked:
Is this Nature's punishment for the crime of being a woman Hit true answer is No! These sufferings are neither natural nor necessary. Th would not exist if tbe onanism was healthy.

'1 Valuable Adrioe From the Bench.
A country justice had been elected but a few days, when a young lawyer rushed iu and demanded a capias. Now, that justice uid not know a capias from a police cell, but he disliked to admit his ignorance. So he said: "Now, see here, my friend. You are a young lawyer and. I fear, lack experience. I would advise you not to be too hasty. Don't be in a hurry. Wait 24 hours and then, if yon think best, come to me, aud I will give you a capias."
The young lawyer agr pI and went away. The justico spent iue remainder of the day getting acquainted with the writ called capias. When the limb of the law appeared the uext morning, the court felt himself qualified to issue capiases by the bushel.
Before he could speak, the young lawyer said: "Mr. Justice, you were right. I was too hasty, have that matter fixed up all right and do not need a capias. I have come to thank you for the good advice, and also have brought you the 2 fee you would have received for the capias, as I don't want you to lose by your good iked."
He went away believing the justice to be a paragon of good sense and legal lore.—Chieago Timfes-Herald.
Forgiving.
An English religious paper says: "We may recall the anecdote of the highland chieftain who on his deathbed was asked by the minister to forgive an inveterate enemy. 'Vengeance is mine, saith the.Lord,' was the text quoted by the man of peace in support of his argument. 'Yes, to be sure,' said the dying penitent,'it is too sweet a morsel for a mortal. Well,' he added, 'I forgive him. But'—turning to hid son—'de'il take you, Donald, if you forgive him.'

Mrs. Oil City was thinking hard as she trailed her draperies over the dusty floor of the armor gallery at Les Invslides the first day of her Paris sightseeing. "Why, pa!" she said at last as she halted before one of the numberless suits of mail bearing the warning inscription, "Ne Touchez Pas, S. V. P." "What a family of Ne Touchez Pases there must have been! This man, I guess, was one of those scientific fellows. See! He's got a lot of letters after his name."—New York Tribune.
