The Garfield ENn,ifu,

Miss Molly is now charming girl
of sixteen, and to her has fallen a
greater share of physical beauty than
to any other member Of the family.
She is pursuing her studies at a pri-
vate school, and has few acquaint-
ances outside of her school associates.
She is a bright scholar, and her mind
is but little given to society matters.
Irwin is like the Rudolphs, his mothers
family. His mind is keen, and he pos
sesses a shrewd mother wit. For a
long time it was thought that the
children were ignorant of the fact that
they were ever the subjects of public
comment, but one day, after Irwin had
been corrected by his mother, he aston
ished her by repeating, word for word,
an extract from an eastern paper in
which he was made to appear as very
model of Juvenile excellence.
Irwin and Abram, the youngest boy,
together, form what might be called a
team. They are regular young ath-
letes, and are the prime movers in the
boyish sports of the neighborhood.
Harry and James are in the transi-
ton state-neither men nor boys.
Harry is somewhat romantic, being
fond of painting, poetry, and vocal and

LIDIEs' DEPARTMENT.

The American Woman of the Future.
The hurrying. nervous, typical A.
merican family, who have never the
means to crafty all desires, and who
are apt to misunderstood even bless
ings which come Unexpectedly, will
yield in time most possibly to cooler,
more quiet. and more self-restrained
type of household. At present, the
life Of the American woman is made
up of emergencies which would sew
orally tax less complex system.
Whether she lives in Chicago, where
the majority Of citizens move fifteen
times in fourteen years, or whether
she resides in Aroostook county, Me-.
where life is more tranquil, she must
encounter the unexpected so often it
is no wonder that her nerves are un-
strung, and existence becomes some
thing to be feared But in the future,
when American life becomes more
stable, and when women will not find
happiness in continued excitement,
the family will be more composed,
more harmonious. Health, which
brings the strong power of overcoming
difficulties, will be more common
possession of our women than now.
Nerves will not mean nervousness
and excitability, and the exasperating
events of life will be met with a calm
ness that will disarm half the cause Of
irritation. The woman of the present
screamed on the Brooklyn bridge; the
woman of the past would have had
Mysteries or tainted. Is not that a
slight improvement? The woman of
the future who is trained by carefully
arranged gymnastics and outdoor ex-
ercise will never scream nor faint. She
and her family will be ready for all
emergencies.-Boston Journal.
