PUBLISHED WEEKLY

Much of woman's service is severely
practical, dealing as it does with the
constantly recurring necessities of the
hour. The ordering of dinners and sup
pers, the cleaning of silver and the dust
ing OF furniture, the making and patch
ing ofgarments, seem to fill up the roper
tore OF many woman's days, bCt she
who by her wider outreach and her
higher mental training is able to make
OF her home seed bed of aspiration
rather than a mere haven for rest and
granary for food is working toward the
truest development of family life. Not
toward the destruction of the home but
toward the development of such homes
as this, is the higher education of wom-
an tending; homes where the food will
not be less savOry, or the beds less COM
Portable, or the floors less highly polish
ed because the woman who prcsides over
its material interests brings into their
arrangement a mind trained by habits
of study and thought, to use and value
time, who so prizes culture that she
cheerfully foregOes some superfuous
founces and embroidery upon her chill
dren's garments for the sake of gaining
coveted leisure for reading, yet who
does not grulge time to the minutest de-
tails of the domestic economy because
she realizes with her larger mental
vision, their outcome in health and
character, and recognizes that in the
humber links of the chain of daily
service lie Heavens eyangeI to the
race, as truly as in such ministry as that
of the Elizabeth Frys, the Florence
Nightingales, and the Sister Doras.-

THERE are now l20 women in the Bor-
lin telephone exchanges. 1t has been
decided to use only women in future, as
it has been found that their voices are
much more audible than mems, owing to
the higher pitch, The men previously
engaged have not been DISCHARGED. but
have been gradually drafted off to diff

Chase Bank, one of the founders of the
National banking system, was an Office

Decadence of the Walking Cane.

The day of the walking cane seems to
be passing away. There was time
when men of almost all conditions, save
hod-carriers at their work. carried
canes; and even the hod-carrier sported
his on Sundays and holidays. But the
day has passed, and its decline is sig.
nalized by the recent failure in New
York City of walking-cane manu-
facturer. There is an abundant fellow
ship in a walking cane when ono is
strolling along country road. 1t is so
convenient an instrument with which
to whip off the heads of MULLEN stalks
and thistles by the roadside, and to awe
tramps, both human and canine. But
in the city streets cane appears to be
almost useless, for there are no mullen
stalks to be whipped off, and the police
take care Of the tramps. Whether it
be by reason of the absence Of the null
lein stalks and tramps, Or from some
other cause, the walking stick as an ad-
iunct to the masculine toilet is assured
ly going, If it has not already gone out.
