We're the end and aim, the higher the

the wifeand mother. Gonjugal affection,
| maternal instinct, are none the less
powerful when under the control of
enlightened intelligence. Indeed the
highest ideal Of devotion is consistent
with the highest conditions of culture,
and she who knows most of what man
knows is certainly better fitted to he his
companion than is she who meets his
nature only ON the side of his physical
comfort. For woman to know how to
look pretty, to dress tastefully, to pre-
side graciously, to make her house charm
ing, and her home delightful to all who
feel its social atmosphere, for her to be
interested in her church and charities,
to like good books, to appreciate good
music-all this is involved in the high
est, if not in the so-called "higher,n
education. We mean that all this keeps
in exercise and consequent development
the highest part Of her nature. But to
know how to look pretty does not de-
mand that a woman should know moth
ing else, and many woman graduate

that in all things that enter into the

the water she raised her arms and

into the hands Of the bathing attendant.
Then She stood revealed TO the concourse

Turkey red flannel, short tight red
breeches, and red stockings. Her blouse
was opened in front by two great lapels,
between which was a white shirt with
red stripes across it. Behind, il had a
great broad sailor collar, white and
banded with red. The extrayagances
and eccentricities of the costumes on

Men who can write strong plays and
good plays, and who know very little
about the rules Of fashionable society
had better let it alone, for the mistakes
become ludicrous and queer any play.
Then, too, don't you think people ought
to look little like the characters they
represent? In this affair the gentleman
who was supposed 10 have done all the
the mischief, to have wronged u young
woman and basely ilcd, didn't look
capable of doing anything more wicked
than taking an egg phosphate and wip-
ing his fevered brow. The audience
firmly believed that the dead-and gone
young woman has made fool of him
and he hadn't done anything wrong at
all, that he was physically and mentally
incapable of it. Then the heroine had
mouth that reached from Dan to Beer
sheba and nose to correspond, and she

the wronged man was dying, she was

her to stand upon her rights, and to let

@ EDITORIAL ROOMS OF TIE ATLANTIC.
In 4 recent talk with neMr. Alllich said
he received enough manuscript unsolicited to
make The Atlantic all he hopes for, com
ing out every month. 70 make it what
he would like to see it as his ideal mag
azine, he would not be able to produce more
than three numbers year. Yet lie has no
illustrations to provide for and to consider
editorially, aud this is a great saving Of time
for genuine literary care. He receives, Of
course, more manuscript than lie can print;
more good material, some Of it sent to the
wrong medium, through want Of expert
euce on the part Of the author. Some Of this
unavailable matter is too technical for popu-
lar reading, some is Interesting to specialists
only, some is poleruical, and the proper field
for all Of 1t is the special publications. a~.aa
The articles offered nowadays he finds su
perior on the whole to the magazine manu-
scripts of years gone by. There are more
capable writers now than then among occa-
sional contributors Of manuscripts. The
great variety that he has to select in order to
meet the wants of The Atlantic is found
among the articles sent to him at a venture.
This Notwithstanding the high aim of the
magazine. which is to prcselt tho brightest
intellectual papers Of the day. Tho matter
used is not, as rule, the production Of
trained literary scholars rather that Of
writers having n talent for magazine work.

his active personality is felt throughout the
