When 14 years old, she bad mastered tho branches taught at that time and leaving the common schools turned her attention to teaching. Her first work was in an academy established near her birthplace, and while teaching she marked out

a course of study for herself, which in time sho completed. In 1880 she accepted a position in a newly established school at Honesdalo (at tho hoad of tho Delaware and Hudson oanal) and continued with tho institution until 1844, latter^ ns superintendent of tho female department, when sho was married to Horaeo Traoy. Shortly after tho death of her husbaud, four years later, Mrs. Tracy again began teaching in Honesdalo, and only resigned ^Jier position there to removo to Neenuh,

Wis., at tho urgent request of threo families who desired their children to continue under her instruction. From Neenah Mrs. Traoy wont to Uipon to take a position In Urockway (now Hlpon) college, where sho has remained 80 years.

Mrs. Tracy's work in this Institution has made her noted. Sho lifts been a power in Its educational work and has acted as superintendent of the domestic department, principal of tho women's department and teacher In mathematics and botany, w^illo continuously serving in other branches. Sho still teaches botany while assisting in other branches. She is an interested and helpful church and missionary worker and Is prominent in all tho phllanthroplcal and reformatory organizations of tho day. Hers has been a noble life her work will endure and her memory ever bo bright to those who have been honored with her friendship.—Chicago Times-Herald.

To Stnrt the Child Properly. That physical oxcrelso Is necessary for tho development and well being of tho body Is recognised by most persons of intelligence, but that it is also necessary for the proper development of the brain will be news to many. l)r. Luther Ouliok, an eminent scientist nnd close observer, makes tho latter point In an article entitled "Psychical Aspects of Muscular Rxurclso," In Tho Popular Science Monthly.

Ho further says that, In order that a man's brain may bo fully developed by exorcise, his Instinct to play as a child must bo Indulged without restraint. To deprive a boy of liberty or opportunity to play is to deprive him of a chanco to heroine a Bane or Intelligent man.

Dr. Gulick analyse* tho play instinct of man from Infancy to oarly manhood. Ho finds that during this period roan lives over tho life history of tho race. Up to he merely plays games that involve muscular activity, but no skill or competition. This represents the life of tho most primitive man From 7 to 12 our boys play games Involving competition, but not much skill. This brings them to abont the period of the stone age in human history. Prom 13 to 1? they indulge In highly organ!ml sports, such as baseball and football From 1? to SS they are devoted to the same sport*, but with a passionate earnestness, devotion and skill which they rarely surpass in the serious business of after life. In this stage they represent the highest type of savage, such AS the American Indian or the south sea islander. who live* only for fighting, hunting, fishing and other sports.

In order that a child may start on the business of civilised life properly equipped his brain and body most have been built up in this way. If we fail to provide •cbool children with proper playgrounds, we shall wreck the race.—Pittsburg Die patch.

mother and hostess, she is yet rarely successful, for a fussy woman is seldom an observant one, being always too busy to notice whether those around her are pleased or annoyed until they speak out plainly and express their feelings in words. "The truth is that she cannot understand the charm and peace most people find in being occasionally left alone, allowed to go their own way, to follow their own inclinations, without remark and remonstrance. To the casual visitor and mere acquaintance the fussy man or woman is a bore perhaps, bnt of whom they are to learn because of their good nature, their obvious friendliness and desire to be hospitable. It is only the family and intimate friends who feel the real

by the*r

excess of zeal and continued

in­

terference in every little matter that concerns the daily life and doings of those around them."

Hints For the Xur«fry.

"Keep children's feet dry and warm," said an old nurse, "and you need not be afraid of their taking cold." When a child's feet are cold at night, plunge them

milo, much of the way through deep jnto tepid water, then rub them briskly wwdH.to tho^hoGl^ with a coarse towel and put him to bed immediately. Nervousness often makes

feet chilly, and the child whose eyes are unnaturally bright and cheeks flushed is apt to be in a cold perspiration as to his extremities, says the Philadelphia Inquirer. Frequent changes of stockings and thick soled shoes are desirable. Rubbers are to be avoided, except in absolute-, ly stormy weather, for the child who wears them is tempted to seek out puddles to walk in, and often gets over his shoe tops in the spirit of confidence in bis protectors.

The unequal and excessive heat of our houses is responsible for many childish illnesses. The nursery temperature should never fall below 72 degrees during the daytime and a little lower at night. Dress the little ones warmly and then aocustom them to the fresh air. No other nerve tonio is so good, and the child who is used to pure air and sunshine is generally cheerful and contented.

The custom of clothing your children in flannel undergarments is an admirable one, but almost exclusively American. A physician of large experience told me recently that ho thought children were less apt to take cold if they always slept a little cool than if they always beoame overheated, then chilled. At night flannel gowns with feet are indispensable, for some children abhor covering and kick through every contrivance to keep them warm.

A Birthday Breakfast.

In these days of rush and hurry, this dreadful hurry which even oontrols reading and thinking, we become oblivious, or it would soern so, of the personnel of our homes. Husbands, wives and children become secondary considerations. To counteract this tendency let us remember the birthdays of the members of our households. Givo to them personally at least one day in 865. Common holidays, as Christmas and Now Year's, with their gifts, have strongly the favor of fashion. A birthday remembrance is a personal one, which brings much of that delightful "just for me" satisfaction.

Birthday breakfasts In our home have been happy affairs. Pleasant surprises always givo plensnro, and

vraany

times has

tho one for which such breakfast was prepared been apprised of the fact that another milestone in life's journey \yas reached which would have been unheeded but for this lovingly prepared reminder. Meals planned for later in tho day savor more of "just for anybody," perhaps for company. The meal need nolr be an expensive one or consist of many courses, but let it be as tasty and dainty as is possible.

Tho ba«t dishes, of course, and the choicest table linen are to be used. Lot thoughtfulnoss and love be everywhere evident. These are tho fairies that make the coarsest food and tho plainest tableware surpass t.ho most delicate viands and the oxquisite china, If the evidences of their presence Is wanting. Try a birthday breakfast and the presenting of the gifts at this hour, whether they are large or small. Bo sure to havo tho "just for you," with much of love, very evident.—Josephine Mitchell Chubbuok in Housekeeper.

A Bnay L.ife.

The name Mrs. E. D. E. N. Sout.hworth is familiar to almost every story reader on our cotftinent, and no doubt there are many who have often wondered what the long array of Initials stood for. Here is the name in full: Mrs. Kmma Dorothy Eliza Nevitte Southworth. The last name was added in 1840, when sho married Frederick H. Southworth. She was born in Washington in 1819 and has spent the greater part of her life there. Hor home, A small, unpretentious oottage, is In Georgetown, or West Washington, as it is now called. It occupies a commanding view on Potomac heights, and from the veranda, which extends around three sides, a good part of tho city may be seen. Four years after her marriage Mrs. Southworth found It necessary to help support the family, and for five years she taaght in the public schools of Washington, but the salary she received was not equal to her needs, and so sho tried story writing as a means of supplementing it. Her first nove^ "Retribution," was published in 1849, and its success was so great that she was enabled to give up schoolteaching and devote herself to her literary labor. Most of her stories are highly sensational and lurid, but they are very dramatic, and tho descriptive quality is good. For many years she was enabled to publish three volumes a year, and her books, taken all together, count one for every year of the allotted span of human life. Mrs. Southworth has always been an invalid, with no love for society, and she has few acquaintances in the city where ah* baa so long made her home. She is now living with a nephew, Dr. Southworth, who for her most tenderly.

Rod Hair la ttlatory.

The eutct tint of the Scottish queen's hair has been always a vexed subject of discussion. Some give it an unmitigated red—Michelet, for Instance, who so far forget* himwJf and history as to call the poor lady a real red camel. Others, siding with chivalrous Sir Walter, boldly endow I their martyred quceh and mtxmss with rich dark brown uwat. It should not I be forgotten, however, that red hair, even modest auburn, suffered a severe eclipse during the early years of our centuiy, whereas under the Valols no one with any pretensions to elegance could be seen wearing it blank. In this particular at kast Mary Stuart must have bad the advantage of Queen Margot, who inherited her father's dark coloring and was reduced to dkeetxbto nature's shortcoming* by the perru^utar'tt art. of three gigantic blond in hear eervfee and brought to the shears as regularly as sheep.

her natural black hair twisted and plaited a l'Espagnol, as she sometimes wore it, in Imitation of her sister, the queen of Spain." But no such need of insistence one feels when he comes to praise the surled golden tresses ofthe Scottish queen. 'Alas," he cries, "what profanation was that a€ the dreadful moment of her death when the barbarous executioner snatched her bonnet and there lay revealed those same fair locks, now whitened, thin and wintry, and which ber friends of France bad so often seen but to admire, curled and adorned as befitted their beauty and the queen they graced."—St. Louis Repulbic. •Srjf •••.. aajjb-i .-..

i-e In Paria the Women Go. What may seem to be a peculiar fad In America is the fashion in Paris, and especially with the American residents of the gay capital. Whenever there is a riot, a change of administration which brings out the blue bloused mob, or "a manifestation." all Paris society flocks to the spectacle. White police tickets—the passe partout within the lines—are distributed most generously, says a correspondent of the New York Times, and the terrace in the Tuileries gardens, which overlook the Place de la Concorde, is reserved for spectators, who have with them these necessary bits of pasteboard. They look on at the conflicts between the military and the mobs as an American audience would at Barn urn's show. One American woman in Paris said recently that since 1848 she had missed only one"manifestation,"and that was because she was ill with the grip on the day on which President Grevy abdicated. She had even braved the vitriol and the bullets of the commune.

v'-T- Real Superiority, It is the first duty of every woman to recognize the mutual bond of universal womanhood. Let her ask herself whether she would like to hear herself or her sister spoken of as a shop girl or a factory girl or a servant girl, if necessity had compelled her for a time to be employe^ in any one of the ways indicated. If she would shrink from it a little, then sho. is a little inhuman when she puts her unknown human sisters who are so occupied into a class by thomselves, feeling herself to be somewhat their superior. She is really the superior person who has accept ed her work and is doing it faithfully, whatever It is. This designating others by their casual employment prevents one from making real distinctions, from knowing persons as persons. A false standard is set up In the minds of those who classify and of those who are classified.—Lucy Larcom.

The Dainty Woman.

She is not born, but made, that most oharming woman who is sweet with neatness plus an indefinable something more. The dainty woman is sweet and charming on the most trying occasions, because on the ordinary occasons she has acquired the habit.

She brushes hy hair religiously every night—not spasmodically for a week or two—and so it acquiror a rare glossiness and smoothness. I-Ier hot bath at night is a regular affair, dating back years to its beginning, and consequently her complexion always preserves its freshness. Her clothes always lie in sweet smelling sachets, so that the faint elusive fragrance which seems part of her personality can no more be missing when she appears in a dressing gown nnd slippers than when she comes out robed for a reception.—Cincinnati Commercial Tribuno.

Pretty Thtnn* For the Keck. The ingenious woman can make herself any number of pretty and becoming things for her neck, and tho uuraber of pretty new things Is increasing. The affinity which fur and lace have for each other this year is manifesting itself in pretty soft scarfs and bows. A charming and becoming bow can be made from a bit of lace, a little chiffon and narrow strips of sable. A little real lace, if one has it, or pretty laco of any kind will do, for a couple of bows or ends and more bows and ends of tho chiffon, the ends ruffled and edgfed with bebo ribbon, and above the ruffle the narrow bands of sable about half an inch wide, or a scarf of some of tho thin, soft traterials can ho tucked and ruffled and bands of the fur run on across

Health Rules For Women. Here are tho laws of health for women laid down In monosyllables:

Don't worry. Don't hurry. Don't overeat. Don't starve. Breathe fresh air everv day anJ night. Sleep and rest a great deal. Spend less nervous energy, every day than you make. Bo cheerful. Work like a Ionian, but don't be worked to death. Avoid passion and excitement. Associate with healthy people. Health Is contagious as well as disease. Don't carry tho whole world on your shoulders, far less tho universe. Never despair Lost hope is a fatal disease.

Rad For the Milliner*.

The influence of equal suffrage has been rather against the milliners and dressmakers. There is not so much time for criticising one's neighbors' hats and bonnets and cloaks. Gossip cannot lie cured In any way eo well as by practice in taking an interest in publio affairs.—Hon. Hugh H. Lusb, cx-member New Zealand Parliament.

The ill smelling garlic possesses some valuable qualities. It is an excellent remedy for worms, nervous and spasmodic coughs and hoarseness. A drop of tho juice into the ear is almost a certain cure for earache, A decoction of garlic is made by boiling In milk and will cure stone in the bladder if taken in doses of four tablespoonfuls three times a day before meals.

A funny story Is told of Miss Fortescue in regard to the first time she played Juliet in London. The fair actress possesses beautiful eyes, but Is shortsighted, and she cannot see beyond the second' row of stalls. On this particular night sho got so excited in the poison soece that she actually threw the vial at the head of a well known critic seated in the stalls. 1

feel so bad about it too The tears are running down Sammy's oheeks. Billy is sobbing as though his heart would break, while one glance at Maggie's sorry face is enough to tell how much she feels for their little brother.

How it happened they can't quite tell. They were all having such a good timo watching the piano man and tho popoorn vender and running almost under the horses' feet to snatch an apple which now and then fell from the cart of a dealer.

Then, all at once, Johnnie was gone. He was with them only a moment before they missed him. Now they can't find him anywhere, and they havo been running up one street and down another twitil they cannot run any more. How could they go home and tell that Johnnie was lost? No, they never could do that. Finally one man said ho had seen such a child a dozen blocks away, but "it didn't seem to be lost." As a last resort they wearily trudged to tho place, a half mile distant.

The street was reached at last, and there, seated comfortably on the curb and contentedly munching the very heart of an immense sandwich, was the lost child, all safe and sound. In a second he was pounced upon by the tired but now happy children and hugged and kissed until he protested in no unmistakable terms that "me wants my san'wlc' you let me 'lone.' "Now, how did you get lost, Johnnie?' was asked, to which tho little fellow replied: "Me didn't get lost Me goed to walk." And that was all thatoould be got out of him about it. "But where did you get tho sandwich, little Johnnie?' "Me gotted him, too," was all the answer.— New York Commercial Advertiser.

Hard on the Jodg ef

A good story on Judge Field of Cresoent Hill is told by one of o«r school people Tho judgo feccanio much attaohed to a particularly bright boy under 4 years of age, who was visiting bis grandfather in the neighborhood. The child loved to hear stories, and tho judge loved to tell them, so they had good times together, especially when some unusually precocious question was asked by the little lad. as was frequently tho case.

One windy day the judge came in, and as the boy climbed up on his knee he said "Thomas Daschiel, I read a curious thing in the paper today. I read that a man was walking along the road carrying an open umbrella, when a strong wind came along and, getting under the umbrella, lifted both umbrella and the man up in the air and carried them along like a bird. Wasn't that a curious thing for the wind to do?"

After a moments silent thought the ohild looked up into the judgo's face and said, "Will you let me see that paper?"— Louisville Courier-Journal

"A True Cat Story.

A few weeks ago wo took ifl a little black kitten. It could not climb then, but after repeated attempts, day after day, it at last succeeded in reaching the top of our cherry tree in the yard This was the result:

For fully half an hour we beard some eat crying in tbe yard and not until 1 glanced up on our tree did I see it was Our own little kitten. It bad climbed to tbe top and could not get down againJust then we saw another black cat oome walking along the fence We watched in silence what it would do, and to our surprise It climbed to the very branch where our kitten was sitting and showed it the way down. As it did not succeed, the black cat called a gray one, which went through tbe same performance twice, but as the kitten was young it could not corns down and a neighbor of ours climbed up and got it. I write this story because it was so interesting to see those two grown eats help the young one.—-Leonard Arc* •tain in New York Herald.

A Decorative Hint.

The decorative powers of blue and white ohina are wonderful. Froderick Ley land was tho owner of the famous Whistler peacock dining room, tho story of which is well known. Whistlor, strolling in one day while tho dining room was undergoing repairs, painted a brilliant peacock's feather upon the wall and kept on till the room was a blaze of gorgeousness.

Ley land would allow no other ornament in the room except a cabinet of blue and white china, and, strange to say, the contrast between the sim'plo blue and white and poacock tones was at once pleasing and immensely striking.

Any one who has soen blue and white plates hung against tho wall of a dining room knows how charming is the effect.

Famom Hymn Written In Fifteen Minutes. 'Safe In the Arms of Jesus' is Fanny Crosby's favorite hymn—her favorite out of the more than 3,000 that havo come from the gifted pen of this blind composer," says The Ladies' Home Journal. "It was written in 15 minutes. One day W. H. Doano called upon her, Miss Crosby told me, and said, 'I havo 40 minutes in which to catch my train, and I want to take with nie tho words to this music.' And ho hummed the melody. 'Can you do it?' he asked. Miss Crosby replied, 'All right I will do it.' In a quarter of an hour the hymn 'Safe In the Arms of Jesu3' was completed. It was an inspiration sho explains."
