have beer deposited by a pro1ectile.
Fhe last effort of this scientific hreoug

and this is what she said:-"Letters
come to me from all sections OF the
county. written by women, inquiring
what kind Of work there is for women
to do. and what kind Of positions L
can secure for .them. My invariable
reply is that while years ago
only seven industrial occupations
were open for women statistics show
that there are now nearly 400 open TO
them. In my own special field oil
labor, opportunities are opening every
dav for women to find employment as
teachers Of household science, as ma
irons and managers, as caterers n
cooks, but ONT are unwilling TO
qualify themselves for these post
tions.
Cooks are wanted every where.
There is scarcely a village in the land
where a competent wonan could not
earn big wages in giving cooking les
sons. Half a dozen churches in Kan

fowns'and villages. What this coun-

This was one of the biggest lies that

Grace and Exercise.

A young lady who is to appear in
society feels, as a young man does,
the embarrassing mt of not knowing
what to do with the arms. She there
fore assumes the position copyrighted
by the gentle sex and folds her hands
in front of her, while her forearms
rest on her hips. This is just as sure
an indication that she has not perfect
control OF her arms as it is for a young
man to thrust his hands in his
pockets. Women almost invari-
ably fold their hands in front
of them, while men clasp theirs
back of them. In either case it may
be a sign of embarrassment. Any one
who has pride longs to be graceful in
her movements. There is possibly no
better way to acquire the NECESSARY
ease of motion than by gymnastic
drill, whether with light bells, clubs,
wands or by free movements. A sim
pie gesture is a gylnnastic movement.
The consciousness that this gesture
can be made well gives confidence,
and confidence gives the necessary
self control, Accurate movement of
the body can be acquired only by ex-
ercises .-OutinQ.

John Shea. OF No. % Golden street, was
a~rraigned before Police Justice O'Donnell
this morning for atrociously assaulting
his wife Annie. The woman called to
Patrolman Coyne shortly after noon yes
terday and said she wanted her husband
arrested. Coyne told her she must get q
warrant. About five O'Clock Ia the after
noon a car conductor told Coyne that a
man was numbering his wife at No. %
Golden street. Coyne fastened to the
scene. He found a woman leaning out OF a
second story window screaming for help.
Her husband had been beating her with a
coal shovel. Several hundred people had
collected in the neighborhood. Coyne
arrested Shea.
When Mrs. Shea appeared in Court this
morning one side OF her face was one
solid, swollen blue black bruise. She said
her husband had knocked her down sew
erai times and hen kicked her in the
face. She still showed a disposition not
to press the charge. She said the matter
had been settled. 1t appeared that 1t
had been settled In the mind of Justice
OiDonnelL Shea asked permission to
make a statement, but was refused. He
was promptly committed for trial.

The Umbrella Habit.

The umbrella first came into gener-
al us at the close of the last century.
The umbrella habit is there fore only
about a century old. Lecky in his
History OF England in the Eigh-
teenth Century has this about the
article:-''In Queen Anne's time the
umbrella is mentioned both by Swift
and Gay as employed by women, but
up to the middle OF the eighteenth
century it appe airs never to have been
used in England by men, though
Wolfe, the future conquerer of Que
bee, wrote from Paris in 1852, describ-
ing it as in general use in hat city,
and wondering that so convenient a
practice had not yet penetrated
TO England. Hanway, the fa-
nous traveller and philanthro-
plst, who returned to England
in 1850, is said to have. been the first
Englishman to carry an umbrella, and
a Scotch footmaD, named John Nc
Donald, who had travelled with his
master in France and Spain, mentions
in his curious autobiography that he
brought one to London in 1778, and
persisted in carrying it in wet
weather, though a jeering crowd fol-
lowed him, crying "Frenchman, why
don't you get a coach n In about
three months, he says, the annoyance
almost ceased, and gradually a few
foreigners, and then some English
men, followed his example. Defoe
had described an umbrella as one of
the c~ontrivances of Robinson Crusoe,
and umbrellas were in consequences
at one time called "Robinsons."
They were for a long time looked
on as a sign of extreme effeminacy,
and they multiplied, very slowly.

been the first person who used one

From The True american Of this Aoraiag.
1t is a cold fact of history that the visit
of Governor Hill Of New York to the
State camp, eve under the suspicious
patronage. under which it was made, did
not elicit that enthusiasm which was ex-
pected and looked for. He was treated
with that respect which would be paid to
any guest of the New Jersey Governor,
but despite the most assiduous coaching
the attendant masses failed to connect
the camp with the White House or Hill
with the Presidency.
