The Young Women of To-Day.

It is not enough that the young wo- mon of to-day shall be what their mothers are, or were, writes lady. They must be more. The spirit oi the times calls on women for higher order of things, and the requirements of tho women of the future will be great. must not be misconstrued into saying that the future woman will bo one of mind rather than oI heart. Power of mind in itself nc more makes woman than does wealth. beauty of person, or social station. But clear intellect. we'll. trained mind. adorns woman. just as an ivy will adorn a splendid oak; 6 true woman has power. something peculiarly her own. in her moral in. tiuence. which, when duly developed, makes her queen over a wide rNalm ol spirit. But this she can possess only as her powers are cultivated. Guilt. vated women yield the scepter of au- thority over tho world at large. Wherever a cultivated women dwells, be sure there you will find refinement. moral power and life in its highest form. For woman to be cultivated she must begin early; the days oi girlhood arc transitory and fast-heet- ing, and girls are women before we know 1t, in these rapid times. Every girl has certain station to occupy ir this life, some one place to fill, and often she makes her own station by her capacity to create and fill it. The begin ming influences the end.

Women In Russia.

Among the middle or lower orders of Russian society the model wife Is she whose good conduct and slavish obedience to the will or whims of her husband gives him no excuse to lift hand or rod against her, and who never beats her husband when he is drunk. Wives beating their husbands Is, however, a recognized phase Of Russian social life, Among the cheap chromos that adorn the walls of vil- lage tea houses md trakters. one of the most familiar scenes is drunken moujtk on tho ground and his wife beating him in no gingerly manner. The merchants wife and daughters still keep out Of sight in accordance with Oriental custom, when male friends call on the husband, and when they go shopping tho husband and ia ther goes with them. assists them with their bargains and pays tho bills. The merchants wife paints her cheeks and is very fond of bright-colored clothes, You often sec them arrayed from head to foot in garish rcd She spends tho greater part of her time In drinking tea, smoking cigarettes and gossiping with visiting friends. There is saying that ga merchants wife can drink a whole samovar of tea. Her mental abilities arc held in light esteem by her spouse and his friends. who. though keen merchants. are. for the most part men of scant edn- cation. They will toll you that "a woman has long hair. but n short mind.' that she is child of the devil and that, when you fall in love with her you fall in love with the evil one. It is considered bad luck to meet woman when you arc go- ing fishing or shooting. In the churches neither women nor dogs arc allowed to penetrate the inner sanctuary, though men and boys are freely admitted.

A Famine of Hired Girls.

Superintendent Weber of the barge office. New York. received letters from keokuk, la, and Fort Gaines, Neb. saying that there was a famine of do. nestle servants in those towns Cooks were only half crop. chambermaids were n total failure. and there was T deplorable scarcity Of maids-of-all. work. Ladies who belong to the Four Hundred in keokuk were doing their own cooking. In Fort Gaines ladies of the highest society did their own sweeping and dusting. The mayor oi Fort Gaines got up at 1 o'clock in the morning and built tho fire. The may. or's wife arose at 5 and made griddle cakes for breakfast. The mayors daughter waited on the breakfast ta- ble.
 The scarcity Of servants in keoknk has made social entertainments almos, impossible. Only few weeks ago a lady belonging to one of tho oldest families in Iowa, who was giving q fashionable reception, had to ask her in to freeze ice cream. The letter concluded by saying that keokuk wanted 100 domestic servants at once and Fort Gaines wanted fifty more without delay. The most natterine terms were offered to induce emigrauts to come from the barge office to Kco kuk and Fort Gaines

The Queens signature to state documents, said he, ''is still q model of tirmness and legibility. no sign of Her Majesty's advanced age being dis cernible in the boldly written Victoria K. which she attaches to such papers as have 10 bear the royal autograph. The question of the signing of state documents in England by the Sove. reign became one of great importance in the last months of George TVS reign. During this period His Majesty was in such facilitated state that the writing of numerous autographs was ap impossihility. and under these circum. stances short bill was hurrietlly passed through Parliament authorizing the King to aflix fac-simile of his auto graph by means of an linked stamp. IL was also provided that George should. before stamping each docu- ment, give his verbal assent to il in a special form. The Duke of Yelling ton was in office at the time, and 1t was his duty ,o lay certain documents before the King for his approval. One day the Iron Duke, noticing that His Majesty was stamping the papers be- fore him without repeating tho pre- scribed verbal formality, veutured to enter q respectful but firm protest.
