Leaving a Man In the Lurcl.

1t was on street car. a man with
very hoarse voice. looked across the
aisle at man with a country satchel be
tween his fee! and said:
"Wintry day, isn't it ~
"Hey?" called the other, as he put
his hand to his ear.
Seems like winter. doesn't it?'
shouted the man with the hoarse
voice.
"Hey? hey?' asked the deaf man.
He says began a man who was
standing up, he says it seems like WIN
ter.
At this moment the hoarse voiced
man rose up and slid out OF the car.
As he did so, the deaf man rose up,
laid down two parcels and called out:
Speak louder, I'm deaf
"He ssys it seems like winter! bawl-
ed the man standing up.
"Who says so =?
He turned over to the hoarse VolceC
man but that person had skipped.
"Who said so?7 demanded the deaf
man.
"I-I-why, said so.
"Well, what of it? Haven t ! sense
enough to know that it is winter
weather? Don't try any of your guys
on me, CT I'll knock the top OF your
head off,
Then the deaf man sat down and the
s'middleman" sneaked out and dropped
off the car and said he would spend the
rest of his lite looking Tor the hoarse-
voiced man.

many pretty things to ornament the
home; and my experience is that men
like to see pretty pictures, and the
many conveniences which women
know how to make, at small cost, al
most as well as their wives do. Where
there are children the older ones will
readily learn to do these things and it
serves to keep them out of mischief If
nothing more; and l have noticed that
where the mother was interested in
making home beautiful, and took pans
to interest the children also, that they
were not in suc'l haste to leave it, as
were those children whose home
teaching allowed them TO despise these
dainty and tasteful ornaments which
are useful as we'll as pretty.
1t would be foolish to spend all ones
time in making fancy articles, and 1t
would be equally foolish not to make
any, it would be still more silly to
make things for ornament alone, that
have no earthly use, save as dust
catchers.
But one way to make woman's
work less wearing upon her too sorely
tried nerves, is to have a place for
everything, and then keep things IN
their places. This is where these little
homemade contrivances come into
play. and it takes less time to make
them, than it does to have no particu-
lar place for anything, and then to be
obliged to have a general clearing up
every day.
A woman is none the less the chief
ornament of her home because she
knows how to make scrap-bags. or to
crochet, or is handy with the paste brush
and the hammer; and her cheerful and
pleasant surroundings will help to
make her bright and cheerful, full as
much as would a room with bare walls
and rocking chair without cushion.

WOMEN AND THEIR DUTIES.

Ii Is gratifying sign OF INCREASING
progress that women everywhere are
awakening to new sense of duty and
responsibility, and are ready to act IN
new and responsible ways when
occasion calls for it. The evidences
are not confined to few places, or to
any quarter of the globe; they come
from near and far, and they deal much
more with work, its demands. its
sacrifices. and its reward; in education,
charities. and other fields Of human
activity. than with politics, though ii is
quite natural that in this country,
where politics is so inwoven with the
life of the people, that it should be diff
fcrlt to separate its interests from
others that have a sem-public bear
ing.
Its particularly gratifying to find
that women use their newly found
power to act for themselves in benet-
icent ways, in the working out and
working up Of social and charitable
enterprises. and also in the generous
recognition of exceptional achievement
on the part of other women. The
numerous examples of this friendly
spirit of appreciation, and the growth
and multiplication of societies COM
posed officered, and exclusively car
ried on by women. furnish abundant
evidence of the wicked falsi:y of the
old notion that women could not or
would not work for each other.
1t is something that women begin to
find not only the will but the power to
do these things, and 1t Is due largely
to the extent to which they have be-
come selt-supporting, and also to the
legal protection which the law extends
TO their earnings and the right they
possess in progressive countries to dis
pose Of these without interference
Not that all has been done that
need be done, or that women are not
even yet hampered and controlled in
ways that men are not, according 10
the temper, disposition, habits, and
position of the men with whom they
have to d,al-but this is a necessary
result Of the past which has held them in
bonds, and which requires generations,
not weeks, months or years to obliter-
ate; and it should be understood by
both men and women, that these semi
public duties, these semi-public activi-
ties will increase for women, year by
year, and that they will more assume
the character of Obligations and respon-
slbilities which it Will be weak if not
wicked to evade.
y women who attends to her home
and her children. and to nothing else,
only fills half her place in the world.
Her social influence Is needed beyond
the boundry of her own home the
community at large has the right to
make demands upon her, and the family
itself needs the quickening of the spirit |
the enlargement of the horizon, the
fruitful and formative results of the
new ideas gathered from contact with
other minds.
To render this work, this thought
these ideas effective, there must be ag-
gregation and mihcation through or
ganization. Men act on the principal
that what is not possible for one man
is possible to many men. 1t is Just as
true for women as for men. One wo-
man may not be able toreallze her idea
but if she can get enough women to
act with her it may be realized.-.4wil
