Mime. Bogelot eturne from the United
States delighted with all she saw and
astOnished at the way in which Ameri-
can women manage their Owl affairs,
conduct meetings and perform so many
other duties supposed here in France to
be the exclusive privilege of men. Many
OF the admirable features of last sum-
mer's congress were suggested by what
Mime. Bogelot saw at Washington, and
she never wearies in singing the praises
of American women to her French sis
ters&
Among the many peace reformers
should be mentioned Nine. Griess-Traut,
an Alsatian by birth, who has known
personally many Of the radical English
women and who reads English with per
feet ease and can speak 1t with consider
able facility. She is a subscriber to sew
eral of the English and American
women's Journals and keeps her French
co-workers informed of what steps of
progress are being made in the Anglo
Saxon world. Mime. Griess-Traut is a
delightful old lady who keeps actively to
the fore in all that concerns her sex. Her
husband, who died q few years ago,
seconded all his wife's efforts and worked
hand in hand with herin all their reform
labors. His death was a grievous loss to
her, but has not lessened her ardor in
the various movements in which they
were both 30 deeply interested.
Another interchangeable reformer is
Nine. Louise Hoppe, editor of a little
monthly called La Femme ct FEnfant.
Her chief efforts are directed towards ex-
tending the rights of married women and
protecting children from cruel parents,
and in improving the laws concerning
boys and girls in the mines and factories
and in guarding girls from the pitfalls
which surround them.
Mime. Pauline Kergomard has done
much good work in this department of
philanthropy. She is the founder, and
was for a long time the soul Of an ad-
mirable society for the protection of
children. Nine. Kergomard is related
to the famous Reclus family, and has
much influence in official circles, from
the a C that she Is a m~ember-the only
woman, in fact-of the Superior Council
of Public Instruction, n body much re-
sembling the New York State Board of
Regents. Her election to this council
was a great victory for the advocates of
woman's progress, and Mime. Kergomard
has shown herself an able and useful
member of this important educational
body, which count among its members
some of the most celebrated savants of
France.

PARIS, April 26.-In this letter l pro-
pose giving your readers some little ac-
count of a few of the chief women
refOrmers and philanthropists of France,
a numerous and noble body who will
bear comparison with the radical and
charitable women of even the United
States, where these two classes abound.
Perhaps the most interesting, and GER
tainly n Of the ablest, of the French
female reformers Is Maria Deraismes.
She is an excellent and witty speaker
and endowed with much ~oratorical
power. Tall, with a large, commanding
figure, a fine expressive ace and n strong
voice, Maria Deraismes thinks on her
feet" in a manner surpassed by few men.
| have heard her at banquet tables, in
public halls, on the lecture platform and
in drawing rooms, and on every occasion
she has proved herself TO be n ready, elo-
quent and charming speaker.
But Maria Deraismes is not simply an
orator. She is n clever writer, an ener-
getic journalist, an enthusiastic Mason
and n painter. The walls of her hand
some apartments, where she lives with
a widow sister who adores her, Mime.
Feresse-D eraismes, are adorned with por-
traits and landscapes in oil, painted in
her early womanhood and youth. More
thar one newspaper contains trenchant
articles from her pen, and she has pre-
sided over an excellent journal as editor
in-chief. She is perhaps the only female
Mason in France, being a member of the
, 1890-05-11

lodge Of lie Pecq, the little town neal
Paris where the latest Rembrandt was
recently found.
The next ablest female orator, if not
the equal of Maria Deraismes, is Mime.
Emile de Morsier, Swiss by birth, who
speaks English with great ease and who
is in correspondence with many leading
female reformers both in the United
States and England. One of her best
friends is NJ. Yves Guyot, minister of
public works, n man of broad views on
all subjects, who, since he has been in
Office, has aided Mime. de Morsier in
many ways in her efforts to advance her
various reform enterprises.
Last summer there were two interna-
tional women's congresses held in this
city, one with Mime. Maria Deraismes as
the prime mover, and the other with
Nine. de Morsier ut the head. Through
the good offices of NJ. Yves Guyot, Nine.
de Morsier's congress was taken under
government patronage, and, for the first
time probably in the history of the world,
agreat government gave an official stamp
to n congress devoted exclusively to the
interests of Mime. de Morsier
WAS very proud of this result, and with
good reason, for it made an impression
here and has already lone much good.
After Nine. de Morsier, the most ac-
tive member of this congress was Nine.

Il Is a curious fact and one not wide
ly known Of John Fiske, the writer,
hat his real name is not John Fiske at
all, but Edmund Fiske Green. He
was born in Hartford, Conn, forty.
eight years ago. the only child of Ed
mund and Mary Fiske Green. While
yet a mere boy his father died, and
three years later Mrs. Green married
the Hon. Edwin W. S~toughton. United
States minister to Russia. Up TO this
time the lad had been known as Ed
mund Fiske Green, but after this, for
some reason Of his own, he dropped his
fathers family name, retaining that of
his mother. Fiske, and adopted in place
Of the baptismal Edmund" the name
Of his maternal great7grandfather,
"John." and thus he became John
Fiske, a name which he has retained
and honored ever since. New York

Love. Fright and Clam shells.

How easy il is for a man to fly to
pieces" In nm emergency
A few days ago | saw an occurrence
on the street of a large town In this
state that WAS as wildly exhilarating to
the ~bystanders as it was to the partici.
pants bitterly humiliating.
A fine appearing young man was ac-
companying an elegantly attired young
woman in a promenade about town.
All at once an enormous dog darted
from the open door of an eating house
and, in full pursuit of a cat. dashed
fairly against the lady mentioned
above.
She fell prone upon the sidewalk in
a f~ainting 6t. Her escort. in a verita-
BILE paroxysm of helpless fright. danced
frantically about. while the proprietor
OF the restaurant ran to the lady and
raised her head
Water. some one!" shouted the sa-
loon man.
Here was where the panicky escort
saw a good opportunity to distinguish
himself.
Like a fash he darted inside the res
taurant and seized upon a bucket
placed near the door. He dashed back
to the street. and with the idiocy that
fear inspires in some threw the heaping
contents Of the bucket over the face
and form Of the handsomely dressed
lady.
That bucket was filed with clam
shells and table refusel
The match has been declared of. but

Prevalence Of Deafness.

DIR. Francis Bowling. in a paper
which be read at a recent meeting OF
the Cincinnati Academy of Medicine,
stated thar between the ages of 10
and 40 at least one person in three Is
subject to partial deafness. The great
majority Of cases of impaired hearing
are hereditary. and are largely owing
TO a too close consanguinity of the pa
rents. Deafness Is more prevalent
among males than among females.
owing 10 the fact that the male is more
exposed to the vicissitudes Of climate.
There is much more deafness In Amer
lea than in Europe. and this is due to
a more general use Of scientific instru.
ments, such as telephones, where n
ear Is used to the exclusion Of the other.

The Chinese have as odd ideas about
the earth and the origin of man as they
have about other things with which
they, AS well us ourselves. are better
acquainted. According to their way Of
reckoning the rocks of the earth are the
bones of the divine body. the soil is the
flesh, the metals the nerves and the
veins. The tide. wind, rain. clouds, rs
well as frost and dew, are caused by
the aspirations. pulsations and exhala-
tions OF this seeming inanimate body.
Originally the mountains rose to the
skies, and the seas covered the mount
aims TO their tops. At that time there
was no life in the divine body except
the divine life. Then the waters sub.
sided; small herbs grew. and. in the
lapse of cycles, developed into shrubs
and trees.

years, breeds verinin. so the mount.

centers Of France Is Concarneau, a
place of G.000 souls, and a favorite re-
sort for American painters who have
very little talent and an enormous
quantity of self conceit. Situated at
the head of the bay of Toret, on IA pict-

fish and food are very cheap. the town is
