Housekeeping of tho Future.

In cities and villages the kitchen and cook
ing stove and hired girl are all to be banished
from the home. Clothes making, soap max
ing, starch making, laundry work, coffee
browning, yeast making, butter making-au
are gone. Send after them-or rather say
that organized industry is already taking
along with these-the remaining work of
cooking and cleaning This state of things
is coming as sure as fate; and when it comes
the deliverance will be SO great that genera
tions yet unborn shall rise up to bless the
workings Of this beneiicent law.
The city Of the future will not build houses
in squares, giving to every house an individ-
ual kitchen and prison like back yard. 1t
will rather build them all around an open
square, and the part now disfgured with the
kitchen will be given over for household
sitting room or nursery, opening into great,
green space, where children shall play in safe
ty, and through which the free air of heaven
shall blow into the houses surrounding it.
la every square will be found a scientifically
constructed building containing laundry
and great kitchen, supplied with every mod
ern appliance for skilled and scientific cook
cry, and also for sending into every dining
room any desired quantity or variety of food.
The individuality of the home and the home
table will be preserved, and the kitchen
smells and waste and hired girl" will be
banished.-Mrs. Helen E. Starrett in Forum.

Pressing Flowers.

a botanical press is the first thing neces-
sary, which may be made by almost any one.
Procure two boards one inch thick, each
9 by Is inches; fasten piece one inch thick
anil an inch and half wide across the end of
each to prevent them from splitting or warp
ing. Bore hole through the slat, board and
all, SO that it viii come ID the middle of the
slat, first laying the smooth faces together so
that the holes viii meet. Procure two bolts
which will work easily in the holes, and the
press is complete. If you can get black
smith TO make some with handles on freely
running burrs they will be the best. Blotting
paper is best to absorb moisture, but if it be
NOT convenient newspaper will do. Place
four thicknesses of newspaper next the under
board, then place your specimen between two
thlckneSseS. Place it on the four sheets, then
another four, and SO on. as many as you like
Change the absorbing papers as often as once
in forty-eight hours Do not remove the
specimen from between the two sheets until
it viii cleave off of itself. Better to let it re-
main until you are ready to mount it. Speci-
mems should be kept under light pressure
after they are dry. About 175 pounds is
necessary to press. House plants and flow
ers will retain their natural color much bet
ter than others. If the plant is wilted when
put in to press it will invariably turn black

Literary Women and Dress.

The old theory that literary women must
be long haired, unkempt in appearance and
eccentric in dress, is rapidly dying out. The
modern authoress has greater social obliga-
tons than her sister who preceded her, and
she must dress accordingly. Eccentricities
in dress even with the most talented, are not
so generally overlooked as in the past. And
q glance at the costumes at a literary recep-
ton of coterie OF literary women shows the
present tendency. The short skirt that for
merly characterized the literary woman has
given way to the more dignitied train.
Grace has succeeded awkwardness in toilets
and manners. Julia Ward Howe, Mary
Mapes Dodge, Marion Harland, Jenny June,
Harriet Prescott Spofford, Margaret Sang
ster, Mrs. Lew Wallace, Anna Katherine
Green-these and many more of our literary
women are both modern and aristocratic in
their dress. Elaborate toilets are not a ne
cessty with the modern authoress, but she
cannot, on the other hand, with any success
to herself, affect the eccentric or curious
Our younger women writers are naturally
more dressy Maude Howe. AInelie Rives
Margaret Deland, Sarah Orne Jewett and
other members of the younger school are
aesthetic in their dress, and frequently the
prettiest and most stylish gowns at gather
ing are worn bv them 1t is, on the whole,
q pleasing indication Of the progress of our
time that because woman is a writer is no
longer a guarantee of peculiar manners

Co.Educ8tiOn.

At banquet of the University Of Texas,
which is co-educational in all its departments,
S. B. Maxey, ex-United States senator, said:
To the female students l beg to say that CO.
education of the sexes is no longer an expert
ment. 1t is proved success. The just rela-
tons between the sexes are better understood
than ever before in the worlds history
Woman, without loosening her hold on that
knightly respect and courtesy with which she
las always been treated in our favored land,
has proven herself intellectually formidable
competitor of that sex which in the very
olden, distant time proclaimed man to be the
lord of humankind. Here, as elsewhere, she
has proven her right and ability to compete
for honors The moral influence of co-educa-
ton is greet and beneficial TO both sexes.
The attention paid to female education dur
ing the present century, and especially in the
last half of it, is a high evidence of advancing
civilization. glory in the civilization which
educates the girl equally with the boy and
gives employment TO the woman equally with
the man in all stations for which by nature
and education she is fitted.-Cnicago Inter

until the whole company is in motion, VIII en-
the messenger leaves the room, re-enterl Y. :,
with fresh injunctions. While the messen-
ger is IN the room he must see his masters

movement without suffering a forfeit. The
messenger should be some one ingenious in
making the antics ludicrous and yet keep
within moderate bounds, and the game VIII
not fail to produce shouts Of laughter.
Another game, of much the same char
acoer, is known by the title, Thus says the
grand seignor" The chief difference is that
the first player is stationed in the center Of
the room and prefaces his movements, which
the others must all follow, by the above
words. II he varies his command by franz

ty must remain still and decline to follow his

he commences with Thus" has to pay for

Some Other Game.

A man with his left arm in sling was
telling passenger on Fort street car what
allied him and how it happened. Said he:
My boy Henry likes to go hunting. und so
last Soonday takes my gun und goes oudt
by der Norris road NIT him to kill some squir-
rels. Poorly soon we vhas separated, und l
goes along by thicket und Henry shoots
me mid his shotgun"
