Why Coin of polite Camp her Protty and property. Formerly a married woman was in a condition of civil Vassalage. Marriage merger her existence in that of her bus band vested him with her personal prop erty allowed him her earnings gave him her Lucid Rente and disabled her from making any thu log contract. Sho could enter no suit Dov make a will and Gener ally she was subject to the control of her husband who could enforce his order Wilh the Birch. Such for centuries was her condition in the Menthor country ant blocks Coue Eom placet itly concluded his chapter on the subject of congratulating the female Sua on being Groat a favorite with the Laws of in Pennsylvania too her status for too years was the same. It was not until the year of Grace 1848 that her property was relieved from the control of her bus band or liability to his creditors. In by he i1 husband joining she was Given Power to recover her property by suit. La 1851 she was allowed to loan Money to her husband. In 1b55 she could make a will. La the same year on Deser Tion by the husband she could sell her property if authorized by court. In l856 she was empowered to receipt for a legacy under the will of her in l8cs she got privilege to mortgage her Laud if the husband concerned. In 1871 Power was granted her to sell her Railroad Stock i in 1872 acquired privilege to buy a sew ing machine on april 3, 1872, she was Al Lowed her earnings provided Sho spread Ripon the records of court her petitions to that effect. In 1878 Sho. Was empowered to sell her land if she proved her husband a Lunatic and in 16s7 some other privileges were granted As to which lawyers differ. That these rights were so Long withheld is amazing and that an act of Assembly was Ever necessary for a woman to receipt for a legacy under the will of her father a enough to astound every god on mount Olympus. The whole policy was wrong in that Dis ability was the Rule instead of the except a notes. Why women marry. You see the Day has gone by when a Man would do anything for a woman countries need to be either very Young or very old when this sort of thing happens but after nil i can t help but remember that question what do women marry some women marry by a Xiuhe they want a Home of their own and these Are my con delusions Somo women Murry because they Haven t the moral courage to remain single. Some women Mairy because they want a Little More their purses and a Little larger credit at the shops. Some women marry because they want Ito put on their visiting cards. Some women marry because their Mother wants them to. Some women marry because a Man asked them to and they Don t like to Bay no. Some women marry for and nothing else. These women get the Money and with it great responsibilities they never dreamed of. Some women marry because they love the Man because they want to be his Vsoke Bis Friend and his helpmate because they want to make him feel that there is one in the world whom he can love and cherish and from whom he will receive love and consideration in return. Because they want him to feel that if sorrow comes he has a sympathizing Loving Friend close beside him and that in the Day of Joy there is one who can give him smile for smile. These Are the women Worth marrying. The others Are of Little Worth and never would be missed if they suddenly dropped out of the matrimonial new York letter. The Coin of polite society. Whenever a kindly or considerate act is shown you my dear be always careful to aay that magic Index to Good thank certainly you say it to the Man who has Given you an evening of amusement at the theatre or the concert or who has taken you to fetches you from a Friend s Home. To whom else should you say it to the maidservant who hands you your letters who makes a special Point of keep ing your room in Good order and who remembering that you liked certain things placed in a certain Way was careful always to do it. To the stranger who holds open a door for you to the elevator Man who saves you climbing to Many stairs to the Man who gives you a seat in a car or omnibus and to anybody in any station of life who Showa you a Courtesy of any kind. We Are Apt to be very stingy with our thanks to accept things entirely too much for granted and to believe in having courtesies shown is that they Are Only what we deserve. Now this is the wrong Way of looking at it and some Day it will serve that girl girl who believes that the Good things of life in the Way of politeness Are hers lawfully and that with out any Effort on per part they can be retained discover her mistake. You Gnu never be too generous with thank yous they Are the current Coin of Job the society the circulation of which tends to make everybody More eager to do unto others be they would be done by. No girl makes a mistake who has a thank you always ready. 11 a the Index to a Good character and a Loving heart. Politeness is Golden and tajik Yon is the Coin which passes everywhere and is recognized by All. Ashmore in ladies Home journal. Saving her Hoys. I think when a boy has become an habit Ual Loafer he a then ready for something worse and i was greatly worried to find my boys come slipping in very quietly about the time the stores closed for the night so i just resolved to try and make a pleasanter place to spend the evenings than the aforesaid stores. Our Best room had hitherto been kept sacred to the of visitors and for Sab Bath but after thinking the matter Over very seriously i started the fire arranged everything As nicely As though i were look ing for company and then just let the boys have it. So far plan has been a great Success for although i never said a word to them about it they took right up with it and now spend their evenings at Home Reading playing for they Are All thrive my and besides being better for the boys it is better for us. Now Sisters just Between ourselves of coarse they la spoil Che carpet and it s a pretty carpet too and i have been to careful of it but 1 mean through god s help to have Iny boys All grow up to be come Good men and if it s going to take a pretty room and pretty carpets to help do it Why i am very glad i have them that s Detroit free press. Liere women get coppers. She was such a pretty girl i hated to give her said the conductor of a fourth Avenue car on a Down trip yester Day but then what am i to i can t lug three or four pounds of Coppei s around in my pockets can i then besides it s the women who give me the coppers and it s Only right that they should take them Back having thus eased his conscience of the sin of giving coppers to the pretty girl the conductor looked at Rne for approval. Where do women get so Many More coppers than i asked the conductor curiously. Well you see it is this he re plied there never was a woman who did t love to go shopping Aud then of course they Are always on the Lookout for bargains and the consequence is where they Trade everything is marked 69 cents 99x cents and so on. It makes the women think they Are saving Money and at the same time it makes us an awful bother for in every Purchase they make they get a lot of coppers which they in unload on us poor conductors. Men Don t give us coppers often solve generally shove ours off on the York the Camp select two gentlemen As captains who in turn Call the names of those they desire to enter their particular Camp. When a division of the company has thus been made the Camps separate each having one room. They then select some word or words de noting a substance or object As for exam ple the loud pedal of the piano in the pro die House in to a White mountains or the dragon flies painted on the ceiling of the Bath room in the House of Pausa in Sara Toga or any other thing seemingly in possible to guest. When both Camps have decided on an object to be guessed the Captain of each de tails a person to be interviewed by the other Camp. This person must correctly answer by yes or no All questions but must not convey any unnecessary information. As soon As the object is guessed the Camp immediately clap so announcing that they Are the victors and the individual who has been questioned becomes a member of the enemy s Camp. The one possessing the most people at the close of an hour is the Winner of the j. Gray in Good housekeeping. Pretty pillows. An effective Pillow for a Couch is made from four of the Small turkish squares or Small japanese squares of embroidery. The squares Are set together with an insertion of Stout White or Ecru lace and coloured ribbons that match the colors of the squares Are run through the insertion. Such a Pillow seen had the embroidered squares in Pink and dark Olive and the insertion run with ribbons of the same colors. The Back of the Pillow was Olive Surah silk and a Cord of the two colors edged the Pillow. A Pillow for an infant s Cradle is Beauty tul made in the same Way. Take four Small and Fine White Linen doilies with a hem stitched Border and fasten them together with an insertion of lace. Back the Pillow with Fine Linen and Edge it with a frill of lace or of Fine Linen with a narrow lace on its Edge. The Pillow itself that a used under the cover should be of the finest White hair in a White Cotton or coarser Linen Case. Feathers and Down Are so heat ing to the head that the hair Pillow is now considered More York Post. Where to put of child s wraps. There is another thing that mothers and nurses often do thoughtlessly and with to end of evil results to the children. This a the habit of dressing them for their out of door drive or walk in the warm Nursery and then letting them stand around for some time while the nurse gets herself ready. For that is the usual practice. The nurse dresses the baby first even to gloves and Tippet and then she begins leisurely an the details of her own toilet. Mean while the Little one Waits about in Che warm room getting warmer and warmer until at when it gets into the outer air it is in a perspiration that will induce a chill at once. A child should not have its wraps put on until the very last moment. And then it should be done not in a warm room but in the Hall from which it should be car ried As soon As the operation is completed. In that Way the change in temperature is modified As much As is possible and the liability to cold is greatly York evening Sun. Marriage and property. From every Point of View i think it is time that we got rid of with All my worldly goods i thee the mar ried women s property has put it out of Date. Under the common Law this declaration of unlimited endowment was proper enough. All the wife s worldly goods passed to the husband. And it was Only fair that she should enjoy theoretic ally reciprocal rights in her husband s substance. But the act has changed All that. Matrimony no longer affects the e lady s rights in her property. Sha need not endow her husband unless she likes Why then should he endow her the Businesslike plan would be for each to state in figures the precise amount of endowment it is a Nobleman endowing his Cook or a Duchess or Baroness endowing some Yonng spark whom Sho has a fancy to make her Hus Lyndon truth. Professor Lowell s sister. It is not generally known that James Russell Lowell has a sister who has gained some literary Fame and whose scholarship and gifts entitle her to wide recognition. Mary Traill Spence Lowell was born in 1810, and is nine Yeara the senior of her distinguished brother. In 1833 she married or. Samuel r. Putnam and since that time her Home has been in Boston where she still lives in her House on Beacon Street. Mrs. Putnam is noted As a linguist and has written some very Able papers on polish and hungarian literature and in 1861 she published a Book called records of an obscure soon after she published a dramatic poem called the tragedy of errors and tragedy of Suc and on the death of her father the Rev. Or. Charles Lowell mrs. Putnam wrote the memorial of his or leans times Democrat. Women plays clans it is interesting to know that there Are about women a the United states who hold diplomas from medical colleges either or foreign. The first woman doctor is said to be Elizabeth Black Well who graduated in 1348. The first one in Sweden is Karoline Widerstrom who has since been by the Thule life insurance company to examine women who wish to insure their the physician of the Milwaukee Hospital or. Amu Mcl Armull. A Tomou probably has More women doctors in proportion to its population than any other City. In walking through the streets one is struck by the signs which read or. Mary so Aud so or i. Jane in place of the usual or. John Brown 01 or. Henry As the Case might be. York Ledger. Judas coloured i Fiir. 1 believe after All the stigma of Judas coloured notwithstanding that red regular Brick top Desir Able. Being a Man it does t matter much to me what my complexion is but if i were a girl and not already redheaded i would Pray to be transformed into a Golden blonde. In the first Paob a redheaded girl never bans or turns Brown. That comes As 1 have Learned from a physician because she has an excessive amount of Iron in her blood. It is the Iron that gives the tint to the skin As Well As to the hair. If a redheaded girl had less Iron in her blood she would be adorned with a head of either Black Brown or Chestnut coloured hair. One drawback is the Iron comes out in blotches sometimes making what we Call freckles. It is noted As a somewhat singular perhaps the Iron in the blood has some thing to do with mosquitoes never bite red haired Louis Republic. Make the Tea table attractive. No Domestic sight is pleasanter in its Way than a Tea table on a cold Winter night spread with a Bright cloth and set out with Dainty China and shining Silver and with All the cheer inspiring appurtenances of the Tea tray with the plate of hot bread the Savory dish of hot meat and the Little relishes that Tho housekeepers know Well How to Supply. And in summer its counterpart is seen in the table Laid in Tho room brightened by the level Sun s rays where a crap salad piles of White and Brown bread and a plate of Rusk or Tea biscuit pitchers of milk and a dish of berries with Cream galore revive the fainting appetites and spirits of those who have borne the heat and Burden of the Bazar. A hint to lovers in this. One of the hotel Duquesne guests Evi Dently a Railroad Man noticed that the Telegraph operator was at Leisure about o clock and soon began a Telegraph correspondence with him. As a sender he used a Lead Pencil and the showcase. The operator had no difficulty in catching every thing. The gentleman declared that he could do Ucli better on a piano As it upon that he Learned. I have taught my a Raghter telegraphy on the said he and we have great times holding out conversations either end of the instrument we both use the same instrument though which does not often occur with Bona ii club Teleg dispatch. German versus american girls. German girls Are beginning to resent with bitterness of spirit As do their English Sisters the encroachment of Ameri can beauties upon their preserves. These pretty Graceful and Brilliant daughters of Columbia Are sent to Germany to study music painting literature Etc. And while quickly mastering arts subjugate the hearts of the susceptible German officers As Wall. The number of officers with american wives seems to be rapidly on the increase and the faithful German spin sters with their frugal habits and Domestic skill object to the invaders with justifiable letter. The Queen of society. Mrs. Astor possesses dignity of manner tempered with a Sweet and serious Courtesy. She carries herself calmly is self poised and Serene As the evening Star yet without a Trace of coldness. She greets her guests with a quaintly attractive if rather Queen by Little Bend of the head then a Clear direct cordial look of kindly recognition supplemented by a Plain Friendly Ameri can hand shake and the right word to the right person in the right York Home journal. A lady who was sick in bed for Many months evolved the idea of an invalid s Tablecloth. The Napkin which had been used was never Large enough to protect the bedclothes from the tray and dishes so she took a piece of heavy Linen As Long As the bed was wide and Twenty inches in Width. This she he stitched and embroidered in outline and Tho result was something useful and pretty As Well As pretty. I love that unconscious boldness with which the Happy child confronts my own gaze with a look of sympathetic Equality in its eyes the smile that n St floods the eyes and then Broadens the Mouth and dimples the Cheek before it confides to me with a Little Ripple of laughter some great joke or some great secret. Parents miss much who do not treat their children As equals. Patti was Only seven when she first went on the stage to sing. Her initial appearance waa at a concert in Niblo s Garden dec 8, 1851. Her formal debut in opera was made at the Academy of music on the night of nov. When she Sung the title role in Lucia i she was then Only 15 Yeara old. No graduate of Vassar College has Ever been divorced from her husband such is the statement of a Man who married one of them and who declares that the Young ladies who have been educated at the col lege arc the Best Cooks in the world. In Turkey woman is held in the most rigid seclusion she must always appear veiled. With pigs and dogs she is forbidden to enter a mosque and the declares a woman who is unmarried to be in a state of reprobation.
