Here is a model young woman. Her name
Ia Sarmesa Bilcesco. She was born in Rou-
mania, and has Just been graduated in law
in Paris. She In twenty-three years OF age,
and is described as very good looking. She
was graduated at seventeen In science and
bellea-lett at Bucharest, and also took the
first prize as pianist. She went to Paris in
1884, was admitted as a student at the Sor-
bonne, and. after some demur, at the Fac
nifty Of Law. Her mother always escorted
her. and in six years abe missed only one
lecture. She passed the little goes" with
great credit. and at her graduation the pro-
fessors allowed her to dispense with the
robo and to argue her thesis bareheaded
and in ordinary dres. Her subject was the
status OF mothers in Roman law. She advo-
Gated enlarged rights for the mother az
to her children. but without trenching on
the fathers rights and without claiming the
political franchise. She intends to apply
for admission to tie Bucharest Bar. not in
order TO practice. but to set q precedent in
favor Of women who have to earn q liveli-
hood.

The time OF year has arrived when every
woman who is in the least degree feminine
wants to sit down on the floor and swear at
herself for ever getting any Winter clothes.
No matter how fascinating they may appear
they no longer have q charm for her. and
u
fur-trimmed coat. no matter whether
the cloth frock is becoming to her. or the
silk and velvet tea gown is a dream of bliss,
tho fact that now they represent so many
things to put away 10 q deadly sorrow.
" Putting away things" is the great grief
OF the year, and 1 believe II the average
woman owned q storage house she still
would not have room enough. Year before
last she put them away In camphor. Now.
II there is anything in the table d'hote line
that moths adore IL is camphor. and 30 they
came and fcasted on this dainty dish.
riddled flannel petticoAts, ate out fur in
spots, and altogether had an exceptionally
agreeable Summer. Last year she read An
account of doing MP your things in news
papers and gluing them together. The
newspapers were warranted to keep out any
well-regulated moth, but evidently the
moths IN her neRhborhood we're badly bred
creatures and they ate through glue. had
feast OF reason as far as the newspapers
went, and a flow OF soul on her wardrobe.
This year she deies the moths. She
wraps herself in the folds OF the star-spang-
led-banner, puts an eagle on her head aud
sings ''Sweet land of liberty" But the
liberty means her rights az citizen. not the
moths. The things are done up in powder
that would not only keep moths away, but
before which a mummy. who had endured
everything would shrink. 1t is a combina-
tion OF the stun used in hospitals and of tar.
II suggests nothing but decomposition, and
the family are rapidly leaving the city, be-
cause the smell from the things put away ,
is 80 intense 1t permcates the things not put
away as well AS those that are, and the peo-
ple who meet them inquire. who's sick at
your house7" There is no use attempting
TO say that it's the stun the Winter clothes
are in. for nobody believes il. However.
II they come out next Autumn without
showing signs OF visits from the moths,
blessings will probably be given tn the man
who invented this stun, but, no matter
what happens, it will always lie punishment
| to smell il.
