FASHIONABLE WOMEN..

Fashion kills more women than toll and
sorrow. Obedience to fashion is a greater
transgression Of the laws of woman's nature
a greater injury to her physical and mental
constitution, than poverty and neglect. The
slave-woman at her tasks will live and grow
old, and see two or three generations Of her
mistresses fade and pass away. The wash
er-woman, with scarce q ray Of hope to cheer
her in her tolls, will live to see her fashion,
able sisters die all around her. The kitch-
en-1naid is hearty and strong, when her la
dy has to be nursed like a sick baby. 1t is
a sad truth that faslion-pampered women
are almost worthless for all the ends of hui
mar life. They have but little force of char
acter; they have still less power OF moral
will, and quite as little physical energy.
They live for no great purpose in life they
accomplish no worthy ends. They are
only doll forms in the hands of milliners
and servants, to be dressed ndfed to order.
They dress nobody, and savenobody. They
write no books they set no rich examples
of virtue and womanly life. If they rear
children, servants and nurses do all, save to
conceive and give them birth-and when
reared, what are they? What do they ever
amount to but weak scions of the old stock?
Who ever heard of a fashionable Woman's
child exhibiting any virtue Or power of mind
for which it became eminent? Read the
biographie s of our great and good men and
women. Not one of them had a fashionable
mother. They nearly all sprang from
strong-minded women, who had aboutas lit
tie to do with fashion as with the changing
clouds.

the very poetry of the picture. The practi-
cal spirit, who is against my elbow, whis-
pers; "Ah! this may look all very well on
canvass, but what about the washing of the
'peenies?" and chuckles as he thinks he
has once more squashed the poetry. Ask
the mother who washes them, and who sits
up at night when all the curly-heads are
quiet at last, to patch the holes, if she doesn't
find poetry in seeing them lying rosy and
healthy, and she will tell you, as she kisses
them, that she would a thousand times rath-
er have the work and the care; for a time
may come when, in Gods providence, the
little ones may be laid on beds of sickness,
and when she is overwhelmed with the
dread that they may be taken from her, and
she looks back upon any little worries they
may have caused. how paltry they seem,
and oh! how earnestly she desires to have
it all back again, instead Of looking at the
pale face of the little sufferer, and when He
sees it wise and well to take them to Himself.
and nothing is left but a memory, what a
halo of poetry is attached to even a torn pin
afore! a little half-worn shoe! or a bro
ken toy! e4 4~. Af t~N i.
Home seems to me the very foundation of
all poetry; it is a haven from all the wor-
ries of daily life, where we can "laugh when
we're merry or sigh when we're sad; - and
if that home possesses the one whose "price
is above rubies who openeth her mouth with
wisdom, and in whose tongue is the law OF
kindness" then, indeed, it will be a home
for the poetry of life. ~

TROUBLESOME A U

Ladies are willing to bear any of the dis
comforts connected with rare beauty, for
the sake of the distinction it brings and the
power it confers. But Il few cases are on
record where beauty was really troublesome
to its possessor. Horace Walpole speaks OF
a London family of girls, named Cunning,
who found it difficult to walk the streets, be-
cause great crowds gathered tolook anthem
wherever they passed.
The fame of a young lady is still fresh in
Edinburgh, a Miss McLane, a Scotch beauty
of 1919, whose charms excited the wonder
of all beholders. She could not go into
the streets without attracting a mob,, and
was obliged several times to take refa'se m
a shop from the violent admiration OF the
crowd. Twice in a theater the people in
the pit, carried away with her beauty, rose

FEMALE MANAGEMENT.

Many families W their prosperity fully
as much to the fact of female management,
as to the knowledge and activity Of the faith
or. The managing woman is a pearl among
women; she is one Of the prizes in the great
lottery of life, and the man who draws her
may rejoice fer the rest OF his days. Better
than riches, she is a fortune in herself-a
gold mine, never failing in it's yield. THE
woman who is able to sympathize and car
ry on smoothly the work of an ordinary
family, illustrates higher sagacity than is
called for by seyen-tenths of the tasks done
by men. /.
Men take one trade and work at it; a
mothers and housekeeper's work requires a
touch from all trades. A man has his work
hours and his definite tasks a woman has
work at all hours and an incessant confu-
sion of tasks; his work brings the money,
but does not so tax the head. heart and
hands, as Woman's work does. Every wife
should know her husbands income. That
knowledge should be the guide of her con-
duct. A clear understanding respecting do
nestle expenses is necessary to the peace OF

plain fair where love is, than an overloaded
stomach, and hatred Herewith. If itbe am
pie, let it be enjoyed with all thankfulness.
When the wife, seeing her duty, has made
up her mind to this, she will brighten her
home with smiles, which makes t a region of
perpetual sunshine. A saving woma at
the head of a family is the very best savings
bank yet established, IL that receives de-
posts daily and hourly, with no costly ma
chinery to manage it in. The idea of saw
ing is a pleasant one, and if the women
would imbibe it at once and adhere to it, be-
fore they are aware of it, they Wouldlay the
foundation for a competent security tor a
stormy time and rainy day, but it is an ex-
cess in saving when we deny ourselves OF
everything that will make lis comfortable,
our surroundings convenient and pleasant.

POETRY OF HOME.

Nowhere on earth is the true poetry OF
life to be found so we'll as in the Well-or-
dered home. Some practical mind may pos
sibly ask, what about squalling children,
with torn pinafores and dirty faces, never
out of mischief and dirt? What about the
miraculous consumption of bread and but
ter, ETC.? Well; there doesn't seem to be
much poetry about these things at the first
glance, I admit. But you would be sur
prised at what can be extracted even there.
Who has not, in going along a country road,
aeen a group of healthy, stout-limbed, curly
headed, mud-bespattered and torn-pina-
fored children, tumbling about, Or gather
ing daisies and buttereups by the Wayside,
and filling these same torn s1peenies with
them? How often do we find our greatest
artists (Who are the keenest observers OF the
poetry oflife) painting scenes like this, where
the dirt and the torn $ peenie" with tlledai-
,es peeping through the holes in 1t make

in their seats, took off their hats as a proof
ofsincere respect, and called on her to come
to the front of the box in which she was sit
ting, that they might look at her. An
American crowd would never violate their
own self-respect by making such an inn
pertinent request, but it was a spontaneous
tribute to beauty. A celebrated French
beauty, long the admiration of Paris, said
she first realized that she was growing old
when she found that the boys in the streets
did not turn around to look at her.

Sherman on Crook.

The General of the army, having re-
Gently had his attention called to the
many structures passed upon General
Crooks unsuccessful mode of fighting
the hostile Sioux and his fruitle IS cam
paign, was asked whether he had
changed his exalted opinion of him.
He replied, sob, no. One must be on
the ground to judge correctly of what is
transpiring. They have a better idea in
Europe of the vast extent OF this eoun-
try and the broad expanse of territory
on the plains than our own people. In
dian disturbances occur in Texas and
persons ask what are Crook aud Terry
doing, not thinking for a moment that
they are nearly 5000 miles away, per-
haps at as great a distance as exists be-
tween the two continents"
General Sherman still contends that
General Crook is a splendid officer and
Indian fighter, Notwithstanding the
severe criticisms of the correspondents
and of the Montana press to the con-
trary. General Sherman says that, as
he expected from the start, the Indians
will be heard of now at the agencies;
but many others, experienced in In
dian affairs, do not agree with him.

Sitting Huli:s strateey.

S. Bull does not affect pretensions to
strategic talent andis not the linguist to
be, nor has he ver heard of Napoleon,
but without realizing it himself is pro-
badly the foremost Indian of the Sioux
nation, and undoubtedly excelst in sub
tlety and in Indian diplomacy, for his
preparation for this war approaches very
near the systematic. Last winter he
made a journey to the Rec couAtry and
himself madepeace withthat immemorial
tribe of Enemies, and, leaving a present
ola hundred horses, extorted a promise
from them that they would not join the
troops in the war, and it lisa fair COM
pliment to the importance of the Sioux
chief that the promise has been kept.

Recognition.

That we are not a part of Wyoming
Territory is a deplorable fact. Can a
man who is familiar with the go-ahead-
ativeness of Gov. Thayer presume for a
moment that he would have refused in
as stubborn a manne as j. L. Penning-
ton the assistance we have asked of
him? AL persons know that had the
petition been directed to Thayer as com.
ing from citizens of any part of his Ter.
ritory he would have been the last mar
who would have prejudiced our inter-
ests by delaying one moment; on the
contrary he would no doubt have per-
sonally superintended the manipulation
of affairs until our county was SO far
advanced as to no longer need his aid.
What 1t is that causes Gubernator-
ial Pap to act in the way he does is a
query. Itmay be that he is busily en-
gagged in home matters or in presiden-
tial affairs or it may be that the fall
election in Dakota is occupying his
time. Let that be as it may it is to be
hoped that he will ere the lapse of many
days give to our petitions for a county
organization the attention desired, and
no longer let individual motives preju-
dice the rights of thousands. We do
not mean to censure the Governor for
his acts, yet we hope he win come to
the rescue as o as possible, and ena-
BILE us to get started on the road to fame
and fortune during the present year in
a manner that the present restraints
may be permanently removed. BLACK
