UNFIT FOR WIVES.

Young Women Who Are Not willing to
Comni.nce Married Life on an Econom.
ical Basis.
If the woman sets up her ideal that
an establishment is indispensable to
married life, she is not fit for a wife.
If she must step from the elegantly ap-
pointed home of her parents to a sim
liar abode without the experience OF
self-denial and toll that leads to it she
is only dead weight to her husband.
The knowledge of this opinion held by
young ladies has prevented many young
men from entering married life. They
can not crafty this desire, and so they
do not marry. 1t has become fashion
able for many young couples to board
they thus enjoy luxury and leisure
they could not command in a home OF
their own, but it utterly units them for
the duties and divine sanctions of the
family. However elegant the home
and ample the income, the mistress
should know by experience and prac.
tice how to managed it. If she does
not, it results in a wicked waste OF
money, disorderly and imprudent ser.
vice, and she is unable to take that
prominent and commanding position in
benevolent work which her leisure and
life otherwise would allow her. The
American family has not yet begun tc
know the secrets of elegant economy

WOMEN ARTISTS.
The splen lid showing They Made at a
Recent Exhibition.

The distinguishing characteristic OF
the thirteenth annual exhibition in New
York of the society of American artists
was the superior work of the women
exhibitors. OF these there were only
eighteen, unless the use of initials may
have disguised the sex Of some, showing
in all, about twenty-five pictures, only
two of which were flower pieces. 1t
might seem strange that men have in
the past monopolized not only by far
the larger part of the practical spheres
of life, but those on the aesthetic side as
well, had not history taught us that
there must be free use of faculties in
general before there can be strength
and originality in particular.
So until this late day excellence in
ar. has been but rarely achieved by
women. Exhibitions heretofore have
shown them mostly as flower painters
but now having won recognition
in this branch, they are appar-
emily becoming Indifferent to it,
and reaching out on more ambitious
lines. The most notable of these
pictures were portraitures. Those by
Mrs. Rosini Emmett Sherwood and by
Emma Slade were among the most

In WOMAN'S BEHALF.
A PROTECTIVE AGENCY.

Nothing is so defenseless as n poor

thrown around her. TO build this wall
is the work of the protective agency.
The many wrongs the defenseless,
unfortunate woman suffers at the hands
of unprincipled, hard-hcarted wretches,
became known to philanthropic women
in Chicago through their work for
women, and they determined to put
their united strength back OF the weak

A REAL RULER.
Ishmall Pasha, the Former Khedive of
Egypt.

Ishmail Pasha, the Former Khedive OF
Egypt.
The extravaganza Of Ismail Pasha,
the former lIhedive of Egypt provoked
English and French holders of Egyptian
bonds to ask him to abdicate. Their
governments pressed the request, and
the khedive, deposed in 1879 by the sui
tan, left Egypt and now lives in exile.
But although Ismail's faults were very
great, he was real ruler.
While NJ. de Lesseps was building the
Suez canal, the public opinion of Europe
was against the enterprise, and money
was hard to get. The khedive sent for
Mr. Hawkshaw, an eminent English
engineer, and said to him.
Examine the ground, study the plans
and report to me confdentially. If you
report the work to be impracticable,
the works will be brought TO an end"
Mr. Hawkshaw reported not only that
the canal was practicable, but that ii
could be made and maintained at rea,
sonable expense. He was among the
guests invited by the khedive to attend
the opening of the canal. On his land
ing at Port Said, NJ. Lesseps presented
him to the engineers about him, saying:
"This is the gentleman to whom | owe
the canal"
The khedive was anxious that the
Aigle, the steamer on which was the
empress of France, should have a free
course through the canal. But the
Latiff, which he sent to clear the way,
stuck, and blocked the canal. Word
was brought TO the khedive at Port Said
between eleven and twelve o'clock at
night
He got into his own vessel, took
three hundred men with him, and by
six o'clock in the morning had got the
Latiff off, and saw her shunted at one
of the stations, and went on through
the canal in his own yacht, so as tc
have the course clear for theAigle, which
was to start at seven in the morning.
'If," said he, 81 had not got the Latif
off, should have blown her up, so thai

EDUCATED FOR MATRIMoNY.
How One Young Woman Came to Feel

How One Young Woman Came to Feel
the Need of Thorough Education.
Among the graduates of the year one
brave young woman has completed
course frankly taken in preparation
for matrimony. Like many girls who
make society amusements thee
chief existence, this young wom-
an did not realize the def
ciencies in her education until she had
won the friendship and love of one who
was her superior in intellectual acquire
ments, With the realization of her ig-
norance came the determination to study
for self-improvement. Entering as a
pupil at well-known school for girls,
relates the Boston journal, she took
courses in literature, philosophy and
other studies which would enable her to
write and speak with accuracy and
thought. She entered classes of political
economy and studied the newspapers
under competent direction. Urging
her teachers to correct all imperfections
in her speech and manner, she made
constant effort to attain the standard
which might bring her nearer to an
equality with her future husband The
struggle was not easy. There were
trials of pride in studying with girls of
more youthful age; there were many
moments of modification from the ex-
posure of her ignorance. Determination
to succeed won it's usual rewards. The
society girl, whose bright mind had
been eclipsed by the routine of pleas
ures, became removed in the school as
one Of the most earnest and satisfac-
tory pupils. When she graduates this
year into the refined home that has
been in preparation for her she will
meet her husband upon an equality and
entertain his friends with feeling of
cheerful confidence She says that the
whole world seems more stable since
she has been shure that her sentences
are grammatical and her pronunciation
according to the best authorities.
