The Dining Room.

The dining room should always be re-
garded as place of pleasure, where fam
lilies gather, not merely for the purpose of
satiating their appet.tes, but to indulge in
free and pleasant discourse on the socia-
bic topics of the day. All business cares
should be discarded when entering this
apartment, and feeling of blissfuI sereni-
ty should promptly take possession of our
busy minds. 1t is this control that allows
us to feel the cravings of hunger that as
sists the process of digestion, and that aids
immensely in correcting the evils which
ultimately lead to chronic state of dys-
pepsia- Bright pictures very often have a
charming influence in this respect-Dr.

WOMAN'S ADVANCE.
Some of the Almost Insurmountable OBJ

Some of the Almost Insurmountable OBJ
stacles She Has Overcome.
Without much blowing of trumpets or
unseemly boasting women have overcome
almost insuperable obstacles, have brought
business abilities to the management of
affairs, and have achieved phenomenal sue
cess. Their capacity for public affairs re-
celves large recogniti.h at the present
time They are elected or appointed to such
offices as those of county clerk, register of
deeds, pension agent, prison commissioner,
state librarian, overseer of the poor, school
superintendent and school supervisor They
serve as executors and administrators of es-
tates. trustees and guardians of property,
trests, and children, engrossng clerks of
state legislatures, wardens of women's
state prisons, college presidents and pro-
fessors, members of boards of state char
tiles, lunaey and correction, police matrons
and postmiStresses.
They are accountants, pharmacists. CASH
iers, telegraphers, stenographers, typewrit-
ers, dentists, bookkeepers, authors, Jour
nallsis, lecturers, painters, architects and
sculptors. In many of these positions wom-
en- serve with men, who graciously ac-
know ledge the practical wisdom and virtue
that they bring to their duties. Hon. Car
of the statistics of labor, has announced
the number of remunerative professions
and occupations in which women are work
ing a. 3i2. MANY women have been APP
pointed TO positions in departments of gov
eminent, and to important employments
and trusts, said Senator Blair, of New
Hampshire, from his seat in congress, but
as far as your committee are aware no
charge of incompetence or malfeasance in
office has ever been sustained against a
woman"
All this is predatory and prophetic of the
larger opportunity and the nobler develop
ment which the future will accord to
woman. The twentieth century will be
hers, IS the nineteenth has been that of
man, in an especial sense. Woman has
wrought more of good than of evil in the
world during her ages Of ignorance. bond

not be expected from her in righteousness

4 Cure for Toothache.

1t is not at all uncommon to have tooth
ache with perfectly sound teeth. or in
teeth that have been recently filed. With
out explaining the cause for this would
simply recommend a very convenient little
application, which you can readily prepare
yourself and keep on hand. Take piece
of chamois skin, or of fine closely woven
flannel, and soak it thoroughly in a gooG
extract of Jamaica ginger, or what is bet
ter still, in tincture of capsicum, which
You can obtain from any druggist.
Let this dry, and put it away until the
time of need. To use it in the case of the
toothache have mentioned, with a pair OF
scissors cut a small piece off, and place it
between the gum and the lip, dire tly over
the root of the offending tooth. This will
act as a counter-irritan', and its effect is
really marvellous. - Laury McIIenry in
New York World.
