One reason why SO many young mothers
do not look so tidy and attractive as it is the
bounden duty Of all women to look, is that
they do not accept the inevitable with the
proper spirit, and then adapt themselves to
1t; for instance, it is impossible to care for a
baby as it should be cared for, and yet TO
wear as good dress as you would If you
were sitting down to do fancy work. The
usual dress whom engaged in this occupation
should be OF some material that will bear
sponging then a sponge and a bottle of diluted
ammonia should be kept near at hand. or
aprons, there should be an unfailing supply. of
different sizes and degrees. Do not fail to
have at least two of the same length as your
dress. and OF two full breadths. A white one
of this style, trimmed all around with scarlet
machine embroidery. is actually becoming
TO most women, and will save the cost many
times over by preserving the dress beneath.
Clotbs yourself suitably, and then enjoy
rocking your baby. All other pleasures you
may hope to have repeated. but the joy OF
being the mother of a baby is one which may
be yours but once, and that for SO short "a
time that it will seem almost dream-like in a
VERY few years

The beginning of the spring season, It Is
thought, will be accentuated by the use of
feathers as a conspicuous millinery trim
ming-ostrich feathers supplanting fancy
foathers-but that the season as it advances
will be mainly distinguished by the use Of
artificial flowers. The ribbons used will be
wider than those which have had the run for
the last two seasons, and plain gros grain
and satin will supply the fancy textures In
which the ribbons OF several years have APP
peared. Velvet promises to have a con
tinued run in Paris, and il much used in
Paris we may expect its use with us; though

This requires a broom handle painted a
bright red or yellow. Saw out a head, let 1t
be of a Pinch block Of wood; take a coarse
file, take of the edges and make it smooth,
bore a hole in the neck, insert the handle.
The end should have a large brass thimble tn
prevent wearing the carpet. Paint the head
black or brown; the ears are put on before
painting; they are of leather. Bore a hole in
the mouth to draw a piece Of dress braid
through for the reins. II you can make
shallow holes in the places for the eyes and
set glass buttons in, it will look better, but
painting looks well. The horse may have "a
collar and trappings as gay as possible, with
a little bell attached; the collar and bride
may be feathers stitched with old gold silk.

By the by, 1t is rumored that bangs are
surely going out OF fashion this spring, and
that the hair will be worn brushed plainly
back from the forehead. While bangs are
not necessary for women who possess low,
pretty foreheads, they are an absolute nsces-

heads. There can be no denying the fact that

when the rain commenced to pour down he

PROHIBITION IN MAINE.

The law known as the Maine prohib-
itory liquor law was enacted thirty
three years ago. 1t has been referred
to many thousands of times in discus
sions on the subject of temperance.
The friends of temperance have for
years c0ntended that the Maine law
does prohibit, which is unquestionably
the fact, with some exceptions. That
the law has had a powerful influence
in restraining the use Of intoxicating
liquors in that state, except in few
of the large cities, is conceded by the
best informed persons. Many people
have the impression that the Maine law
is what is termed constitutional pro-
hibition. Such is not the fact; it is
only legislative prohibition; precisely
|such as Wisconsin may have without
going through the tedious form of pro-
curing a constitutional amendment.
If the friends of temperance in this.
state, who desire the suppression of
the traffic in alcoholic liquors, have
not the political power to elect legis-
lature in favor of prohibition, then it
is hardly supposable they can carry a
measure in favor of constitutional
prohibition, if submitted to the people
Judging from the results of the recent
spring elections in Wisconsin, there
needs to be a vast deal of educating
before vote for constitutional prohib-
ition can be secured. The largest
cities in the state have declared only
low licenses; but one city. and that a
small one, voted prohibition - no
license. The best the friends of tenn
perance can do is to strive for the en-
forcement of the present laws, and not
attempt impossibilities.
Although Maine has. been thirty
three years without a clause in its con-
stitution making prohibition positive,
the legislature of the state has just
passed law submitting to the people
prohibitory amendment to the con-
stitution. A judge of the Supreme
Court of the state, thirty years on the
bench, and friend of prohibitory
legislation, has written a letter deciar-
ing such a constitutional amendment
wholly unnecessary, and that the legis-
lature has now all the needful power
that a constitutional amendment can
give it.

INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION.

The sphere of woman III all indus
trial occupations has been constantly
Increasing the past few years. Trades
and employments that had been re-
garded out of her proper domain, she
IS now pursuing with profit and pleas
ure, and wonders why she did not dis
cover these new avenues to usefulness
before. The industrial education of
woman IS everywhere receiving more
attention than formerly; the systematic
efforts to better her condition, by rem
dering her situation Of less dependt ncy.
Is one OF the encouraging signs Of the
times. Women are much more depen-
dent than men, and large proportion
of them are helpless when thrown on
their own resources to provide for
themselves a living. Therefore the
wonder is that the proper training Of
young girls has not before this become
a branch of popular education. Wo-
men have fewer opportunities to sup
port themselves than men have; this
is because of the restrictions placed
upon them by the customs of society.
and partly because of the disinclina.
ton to apply themselves to practical
business. A large class of young wo-
men consider manual labor Of almost
any kind degrading, although wholly
dependent on fathers and mothers for
the food they eat and the clothes they

wear. Another class of young women
would willingly accept some light and
genteel employment as temporary ex-
pedient, until their ideal Of matrimony
is reached; after which nice home
surrounded with comforts is in ex-
pectancy. But thousands every year

anticipated home of comfort and ease
often in these times becomes one

A splendid opportunity is soon to be
offered to young men and women by
the opening of an industrial school in
Chicago. A number of philanthropit
individuals have subscribed 100000
for the erection of buildings suitable
for school, combining instruction il
industrial employments and book edu
