For young Vomen who TraveI.

A little advice to young ladies who may
be obliged to travel alone for the first time
may not come amiss. In buying her ticket
for the trip young lady should also buy
ticket for her sleeper. 1t is most con-
venient to get the berth as near the toilet
room as possible. The railway official will
arrange, if she does not get the entire Sec
ton, that the other berth is occupied by
lady. The porterwill make up her berth
whenever she desires. a lady should al
ways provide loose wrapper of some light,
wooden material to sleep in when travelling
When retiring, remove as much of the
clothing as is necessary for comfort, and
hang it by the berth. 1t is more convenient
and much pleasanter to rise early in the
morning and get to the toilet room before
there is too great demand for it. No lady
will monOpolize the toilet room very long.
When lady reaches strange city, she
should get into the stage that belongs to
the hotel to which she wishes TO go, get out
at the ladies' entrance, go into the recep-
ton room, and ask to see some one from
the Office She should tell the clerk, or
whoever comes, what kind of room she
wishes, ask the price of it, and give him
her name to register. In dress and de-
meanor IN hotels, etc, young lady should
be scrupulously quiet.
A lady should remain in her own room
and not sit alone in public parlors. A lady
should send word to the Office, by the bell
boy, when she wishes to leave the hotel,
and porter will be sent for her baggage,
and she will be appraised when the hotel
coach is at the door. 1t is usual to give a
tip to porter, a bellboy, waiter or
chambermaid in return for any small serv-
ce.-Housekeepers' Weekly.

Who Is My Neighbor?

/ have sometimes wondered, and proba-
bly, every woman has, "Who is my neigh
bor?" When my two little ones were ill
and | should have been in bed myself, !
saw the selfish side of so many of my neigh
bors that began to doubt the presence of
any real neighborly feeling in any of their
stony breasts. Mrs. A, B and c would drop
in periodically, and after waking which
ever little sufferer CHANGED to be asleep,
and interrupting me in my weary efforts to
get something done while they slept, would
glance around, taking in" all the unfin-
ished work and disorder, and forthwith
depart, exclaiming at the door, "Now, do
let me know if there's anything | can do
for YOU" or Il may as well CO. as l can't
do anything for you," when they had never
SO much as limited desire to assist me in
any way. In my anguish of spirit ! was
tempted to exclaim, mo one so blind as
those who won't see"
But one morning | discovered who my
real neighbor was. A sweet maiden lady
living near came in, and after few cheer
full words and a glance about she slipped
away, but soon returned clad in an i'm
mense kitchen apron, and without word
fell to work. Under her magic touch
dishes were washed, floors swept and beds
made, while the weary little mother was
comforted beyond expression. All done
she fitted away again, but many day
since then have 1 blessed her in my heart
for kind words said and kindly actions
done.-M. Sanford in Housewife

Color and Age with Women.

There are few women who know how to
grow old gracefully, who suit their dress
20 their advancing years, and the colors
they wear to the changes in their COM
plexion. There is nothing that fades so
Boon as delicate pink and white skin. A
Akln which Is lovely at twenty may be
ffopeiessly sallow at thirty-fve. The secret
n a well dressed woman lies largely in her
fpromptness to recognize her own physical
|fdefects, and to remedy them by the Judi
cious cut of her gowns or choice of colors.
The gamut OF color becoming to delicate
youthful complexion is generally trying to
mature woman.
A woman may often be far more beauti-
ful IN maturer years if she makes proper
use of the shapes and colors becoming to
her than she was as a bread-and-butter
miss. The delicate, roseate skin NAV have
taken on a maturer color at thirty, or be-
come clear matte" tint, which is fully
as attractive if properly managed, but all
these changes and all changes in the color

Giving Animal Food 70 Infants

There is no greater error in the manage
ment of children than that of giving them
animal diet very early. To feed an infant
with solid animal food before it has teeth
proper for masticating. shows total dis
regard of the plain indications of nature in
Withholding teeth suited to this purpose
until the age at which the system requires
solid food. Before that time, milk, farina-
ceous food and animal broths afford the
KIND OF sustenance which is at once best
suited to the digestive organs and to the
nutrition of the system.
The method of mincing and pounding
meat as a substitute for mastication NAV
do very well for the toothleSs octogenarian
whose stomach has been habitu ated to con
centrated nutriment, but the digestive or
gans of child are not adapted TO the due
preparation Of such food, and will be dis
ordered by it.-Hall's Journal of Health.

NAUTICAL APPRENTICES.
Plenty of Good Material for Seamen, but
System Is Necessary.

!
System Is Necessary.
| although seamen's wages and food
were never better than they are at present,
our youngsters do not take kindly to the
sea, and most of those who do go, after a
voyage or two, leave it in disgust" said
| Captain Duncan MCLEAN. "The restraint
| of discipline is irksome and often offensive.
Young America is too accustomed to hav-
ing his own way ashore to bend to the way
of another ahoat.

matter how kindly it may be admins
tered, the young, who have imbibed the
idea that Jack is as good as his MASTER
do not relish the idea of inferiority. The
work at sea is not hard-not near as hard
as most mechanical labor-and if a sailor
is economical he can save more money thaE
he could as a mechanic.
"a single man in our coasting trade can
save at least $3.50 a year. An able seaman
in the navy can do even better than this,
and have a good time for the work is
not hard, and even if taken sick he does not
lose any pay, but has the best of medical
attendance free.
Most of our deep water business is in
the California and European grain trade.
Our East India and China trade is carried
on by British steamers, manned of course
by British seamen, who must follow the
sea or starve for they have no other occu-
patton. On the other hand, most American
seamen are Jacks of all trades and if one
thing fails, they can turn their hand to
another.
"Our merchant shipOwners, as rule, do
not wish to be bothered with the care of
apprentices, most Of whom, by the time
they have acquired the use of their sea
legs leave the sea.

apprenticeship system, for we cannot rely

our scholarships, and who regard the navy
as their home for life.

are steady and hardy, and most of them
have families, the responsibility of which

A Remarkable Change in Sentiment.

When DR.. jacob, then Mary Putnam,
sailed from New York to prosecute in Paris
the study denied to her in the United
States, she encountered ridicule and oppo-
sition. When DR.. Elizabeth Blackwell,
the first woman to take medical degree,
began practice in New York, she could not
hire house in New York, so great was
the prejudice against women doctors, and
was obliged to buy one before she could
hang out her modest shingle. Now there
are 5000 women ministering to the relief
of the suffering with success.-New York

Lastly--but not least by any means-do
not try to 60 into business unless you are
actually forced to. If there is a man iu
your family do not attempt to help make

One of the First Labor Women"

The Knights of Labor have appointed
two women shirtmakers as local organ
izers. Women organizers in the labor
movement have always been rare. One
who has gained prominence in the United
States is Mrs. Leonora Barry. In the palm
lest days of the order of the knights of
Labor her rich voice was familiar to every
one interested in the l. or movement. She
was employed in carpet mill for years
herself and knew the practical needs of
women who toll. A couple of years ago
she married Henry Lake, printer and dis
trict master workman of the Knights of
Labor of ST. Louis, and has retired from
the rostrum.-New York Letter.

Blonde versus Brunette.

A statistical inquiry undertaken by DR..
Beddoe has brought out the curious fact
that in England brunette has ten chances
of being welded to nine chances if she is a
blonde, and the English women are gradu-
ally losing their fairness of skin and hair
in darker types, simply because men per-
sist in selecting the darker haired women
for wives. The same thing is happening
in Germany, France and Switzerland, and
it would seem that the reign of the fair
haired belle is doomed.
