Woman and Her sphere.

Woman has now more fields of labor open
to her than ever before. But woman's ser
vices and woman's welfare may now be reck-
oned too much on the commercial basis of
utility For woman is not as capable of hard
continuous labor as is man. The woman is a
more delicate being. her average of health
and strength more fuctusting, her system
moro sensitive to surroundings and condi-
tons. When, as with barbarous nations and
some not reckoned barbarous, she is put to
hard, underwriting labor, if she does not
break down she becomes coarse and deformed
physically and mentally If woman, to earn
her living, must work with man hour for
hour, it Is possible that man may still be the
sufferer indirectly. Woman is of use to man
for other qualities than the labor of hand or
brain. Her sympathy and her association are

HECKER'S
PERFECT BAKING POWDER.
A FAIR TEST.

TO the Editor OF the journal g. Courier:
Sir:-The contract for supplying
the United States government with
seventy-fve thousand (75, 900 lbs.
of Baking Powder during the en-
suing year has been awarded to
Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder,
it having been tested by DR.. Ed
ward G. Love, analytical chemist
for the government, and recon-
mended by him for it's excellence
and because it contained higher
percentage of gas (Which means it
will make lighter bread and bis
cuit than either the "ROyaP' or
the other cream tartar baking
powders which he examined. The
samples analysed by DR.. Love were
furnished by the government COM
missioners, and were without the
manufacturers label or name,
and designated with a number
known only to the commissioners.
1t will thus be seen that when
Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder
submitted to an impartial test
it's superiority is acknowledged,
and the popular verdict so emphat-
ically expressed in it's favor is fully
sustained,

At the last meeting of the French Academy

occurred in the French climate during the
last few years formed one of the chief topics

Breton population $4,000. 900 of francs per
annum, has now become thing Of the past,
the sardine having completely disappeared
from the coasts. One member attributed the

of spring to the altered direction of the gulf
stream. Before adjourning a committee was

as preventive. OF 112 cases for the period
named reported as smallpox % only proved
to be such, but cases of chickenpox proved
to be smallpox. This made an even hundred.
Fifty three of the hundred had never been
vaccinated and 81 died. This is 90 per cent.
OF Al who had been successfully vaccinatsd
only 6, or ~ per cent, had died. Twenty
four of these, adults, had not been vaocinat-

Surgeon Joseph R. Smith, of the United
States Army, has prepared an interesting pa
per concerning the Retired List of the
Army" He shows that the retired list origi-
mated in 1861, and under the laws then and
subsequently passed it now consists of five
different classes of oficers-namely, % those
retired on their own application after forty
years of service, % those retired on the
report of Board as being incapacitated
for active service, 60 those retired in
the discretion of the President after forty
five years of service, having attained
the age of sixty-two years, a. those re-
tired on their own application, in the discre-
ton of the President. after thirty years of
service, and 90 those restored to the SER
vice and placed on the retireds list by act of
Congress. The whole number at present is
limited to 400, and three-fourths of them are
number retired in twenty years has been $50.
The mortality in the first and third classes
Chose retired for age) has been about 6 per
cent. per annum, while in the second class
(retired for wounds) it has been less than 4
per cent. The mortality among officers on
the active list in the last twenty years has
been 1.9G per cent, excluding losses in
battle, and 1.94 per cent, including such
losses. The great number of officers, of the
same average age, placed in the army upon
the reorganization at the close of the war, has
now brought about such stagnation in pro-
motion as very seriously to affect its morale.
Officers are attaining their fftieth year while
still captains and their sixtieth year as
majors more than one-third of the first lieu
tenants of infantry are over forty years of
age, and large proportion of officers have
been serving from fifteen to twenty years in
one grade. The result is that officers pass
the prime of their life in subordinate posi-
tions without responsibility, and only attain
the more important positions at such an
advanced age and so little accustomed to re-
sponsibility that their. usefulness is greatly
diminished. In order to remove this stagna-
ton, at least in part; it is now proposed to
remove the restriction as to the numbers on
the retired list, and to apply to the army the
same law that has been found to work very
well in the navy for the past twenty years
viz, that every officer shall be placed on the
retired list on attaining the age of sixty-tTo.
