PROPER SPHERE OF WOMAN.

There has been a great amount OF
talk in respect to the proper sphere OF
woman. and much concern is mani
tested lest she might get out of the
sphere of activities where she right
fully belongs. Despite of all the re-
straints which over.careful people have
attempted to hedge her in, she has
found her way into honorable employ.
ments of almost every nameable kind.
A false delicacy has not kept her from
spheres of action where she can make
herself a benefit to humanity and con-
tribute to the general stock of the
nations industries. While the pulpit
and the press have been trying to de-
termine what field of activity woman
ought to occupy, she has been busy
invading almost every department of
human industry. Further discussion
as to what occupations are most suit
able for woman is unnecessary; her
sense of propriety will determine that
question without dictatiOn from any
quarter. Necessity has compelled a
large proportion of women to earn
their own living by stepping out of
the beaten track of long years gone by.
Having invaded new fields from neces-
sity, she has found the new occupa-
tons to her decided advantage. They
have enlarged her intellectual horizon'
and contributed to her financial indie
pendence, without diminishing her
"home duties" of which so much has
been said. We have seen thus far but
the beginning of the industrial life of
women outside of the home. With
the almost marvellous expansion of
the sphere of woman the past quarter
of a century, it can readily be seen that
if there be rights now withheld from
her, to which she has just claims, her
perseverance will overcome all obsta-
Giles. and they will be accorded to her.

One of the notable events i'm the
Chicago Convention on Tuesday was
the presence of leading suffragist
women in the room of the committee
on resolutions. Miss Susan Il. An
thony and others of like national re-
putation were of the number. These
women maintained that it would add
the earnest advocacy of the foremost
woman lecturers in support of the Re-
publican ticket il plank were put into
the national platform recognizing
their rights. 1t was also argued by
prominent men before the committee
that if an outspoken temperance decla-
ration was added to the resolutions of
the convention it would prevent the
stampede of thousands from the Re-
publican ranks to the Prohibitionist.

REASONS FOR LEARNING A
TRADE.

Mention has been made of the num-
Der of boys seen on the streets who
have no employment, and whose
excuse for being idle is. they have no
work. Far better for them would it
be if they were in school, where their
tuition costs them Lothing, than to
have them grow up to manhood in
illiteracy. But if these boys are disin-
clined to attend school it would be
wise for their parents or guardians to
have them learn trade. Because a
boy does not wish to follow trade, it
is no good reason why he should not
learn one. A man does not 60 to the
expense of insuring his house or his
store because he expects it to be burn.
ed, nor does he take life insurance
when he takes journey on the cars,
expecting he may sustain personal
damage. He insured i'm these cases
because of the liability to unforeseen
accidents. A boy may wisely resolve
to be a farmer. believing that to be
the safest of all occupations, but it has
often happened that farmer has been
disabled from doing manual labor on
the farm, and yet have sufficient physi-
cal strength to follow some one of the
many trades. The time spent in learn
ing trade in his boyhoOd was earning
an investment in stock which some
day may be convenient and available.
Capital in trade is unlike money capt.
tai; the former cannot be lost by specu-
lation or accident; but the latter may
be lost in a brief period Of time. A
man may be rich to-day, but by a
speculative venture be poor tomorrow
The transitions from wealth to poverty
are continually occurring. as may be
seen in the announcements of the city
journals. A good trade to fall back
upon would be welcome relief by
many of the suddenly made poor men.
They have hands, but uneducated to
any remunerative trade. A good trade
is an abiding reserve help when pecu-
mary disaster comes. The sheriff can
not seize upon it, nor the thief steal it.
The remark is often heard, The trades
are already oyerdone; the crowds of
unemployed are evidence OF it," This
instead of showing it true, proves just
the reverse. The unemployed man
having trade and willing to work
stands many times the better chance
to get employment, and at much better
wages, than the man without any trade.

A sad accident occurred at Charley
Gaines last week. Mr.. Gaines was paint
ing on his new house, with two other
parties, when the scafolding fell, letting
them down twelve feet. Mr.. Morehouse,
who was one of the parties, was badly
hurt, breaking a leg and dislocating an
ankle, which it is thought will lay him
up all summer, and it may cripple him
for life; and, what makes it still worse,
Mr.. Morehouse needs all his time and
labor to live. The other parties were
not badly hurt, and keep about their
business.

brow; but the horses, how they sweat

A: M. Wicks was twice disappointed
in one day last week. He is building a
barn 80 by Is, and had arranged to raise
last Wednesday, but shower set in a
little after noon and rained for over two
hours. This spoiled his raising for that
day, as he thought; so to, save time he
took his help and started off to wash his
sheep, expecting to see his neighbors
the next day and raise the afternoon
following. The neighbors soon began to
come in to see if any body had come to
the raising, and by 4 o'clock men enough
had gathered to raise the. building, and
up it went, and when Mr.. Wicks came
home at night he found his barn raised
and his neighbors had all disappeared !.
A man must feel little chagrined not
to be invited to his own raising. Still
his last disappointment was a happy
one.

school, but also the friends Of the
schoo |, to Learn how its spirit Of enter
prise and improvement now compares
with thirty-fiye years ago. A particu-
lar comparison Of the present condition
with tEat of a third Of a century ago
will not be instituted now, but may be
hereafter. The subject is one of too
much Importance to pass without in
4uiry. The hopes of the perpetuity of
our free institutions are based on the
intelligence which is expected will be
diffused through the agency Of the free
schools.
The school in its early history en-
gagged in literary activities worthy Of
all praise. One of these educational
enterprises has perhaps more than
once been noticed in the TELEGRAPH,
but may be mentioned again. In 1853,
thirty-five years ago, publication
called Literary Wreath was issued in
fortnightly numbers. Efforts of a
similar kind were put forth at later
periods by the school. In number of
the Wreath, of date July, 1858, the
names of the contributors are given.
The first two names are j. v. Quarles
and d. J. Hines. Both of these were
in after years elected Mayor of this
city. Among the girl contributors. one
went west" made tree claim on
quarter section. and became the owner
of valuable farm. Another travelled
in Europe, spending considerable time
abroad in perfecting her studies.
Others are deserving favorable mem
ton for their achievements. Many of
the articles in the Wreath would bear
republication for choice language.
But the chief purpose in recalling
these school literary events of the past
is to raise the inquiry, has the stand
ard of education been expanded since
thlrty-ive years ago, or has the interest
tagged and have the schools lost their
incentives to progress and are they los
ing their old-time ambition? It is to be
feared that this latter conclusion is at
least in a measure true. If 50, there
is a grievOus fault somewhere. It has
been noticeable to every observer that
scores of boys for weeks and months
past have been seen OH the streets, idle
without any useful employment. They
are growing up with but limited edu-
cation. not fitting themselves for the
duties of citizenship. so essential in our
form of government. Many of these
boys have their fixed places of meeting
at all hours, but for what purpose is
not said. The law to enforce compul.
sorry education is a wise one, now re-
garded as such by most countries of
Europe. But compulsory education is
a dead letter on the statute book.
Those whose duty it is to enforce it
give it no attention. The means for
the education of these Out-of-schOol
children is provided at large expense,
yet the opportunity for availing of
these provisions is fearfully neglected.

The state school tax apportionment
for the year 1888 is by far the largest
ever distributed in Wisconsin. The
total for the state is $771 ,597. Keno
sha county receives $1,000. With such
a magnificent school fund, Wisconsin
ought to make an educational showing
equal, if not superior, to any state in
the Union. Every town sharing in
the benefits of this fund should exhibit
an educational equivalent. Inasmuch
as education is public property, here
comes in the reason for compulsory
education. If the state pays literally
for a property which it does not realize,
then it is defrauded.
