GA minister" she says, sometimes mar
ries before he fixes on his profession and
usually marries to suit himself rather than
his congregation. If his wife makes him
happy in his home and leaves him as free as
possible to pursue his work untrammeled,
she aids him most effectually. What ever
she can do outside of this in helpful work it
is her duty and privilege to do as it is that
of any other Christian woman.
''When some of his parishioners asked

New YORK. March 6. 1s91,-TSpecial cor
respondeuce of THE HERALD. THE Rev.
DR.. Talmage sat in his study the other even

boy of Egyptian aspect who stood patiently
in the doorway carrying candles.
ST used to read" he said, "a good deal of
literature on the subject of ministers

quire as many new frills and furbelows as
our purses will afford-the same having
been put on exhibition earlier than ever
before. First came the crisp ginghams,
lawns, etc, for by some unwritten law,
these are always first in the field. Then
the lovely flower decked challies and China
silks revealed themselves in all their deli
cate beauty, and among them came the suit
ings and the high novelties in wool mater
ials. And as fast as the new goods appear
ed the artists put forth new designs SO that
even at this early date we have models OF
all the garments which we shall require
between now and next September. Among
these is the spring wrap, the dainty and
dressy article which is worn in April and
May. In such wraps the Redfern designs,
as usual, head the list.

my Children she says, felt themselves
defrauded or my husband wished it other
wise, even if my judgment did not agree
with theirs, could not go outside.''
In the early days of their married life
Mr.. Abbott was a lawyer and Mrs. Abbott
studied his cases with him, copied legal
papers and absorbed herself in his labors.
When he felt himself drawn to the minis
try still her thought was to forward his
| undertakings. So it has been during the
years given to the pulpit and to editorial
duties.
81 know of no demands" she says, 'made
on minister's wife, but | see privileges.
A pastor must be in some sense leader,
and his wife, too, can do much in the SER
vice of humanity.
'sTheres good deal of talk against the
churches, but much of that comes from peo-
pie who don't know what the churches are
doing. l would like to see church so
organized that every woman on becoming
member should be asked at once on what
committee she could give much or a little
| time. Then once year there might be a
grand rallying day with accounts OF things

Plymouth church has it's mission
churches, the Mayf1ower and the Bethel
and it is constant pleasure to watch the
transformation of women who come in
with shawls over their heads, poor, dis

sThen there are the two working girls
clubs with their educating influences. The
little girls of the 'junier club'' sew and
cook, and one day not long ago when they
sent me box with beautiful biscuit and
a piece of pie and some cake and a great
variety of things, all daintily made in the
cramped quarters of their own homes.
''Then there is the Young Woman's
League. They have made towels for the
gymnasium, bringing the young men of the
church into sympathetic relations with its
cultivated young women. Last summer
they sent trunkful of linen to the Holiday
house of the working girls. We read to-
gether Whitcomb RiIey's little poem of
of The honest stitcher on the under side
for l wanted the things made fine and neat
for girls whose low wages often press them
to think more of dress than of underwear.
"Then there are the boys and girls
classes. The boys are making picture
screens for the hospitals and the girls make
covers for the bare bureau tops in the
rooms of the colored girls and the Indians
at Hampton institute. They are helping to
educate an Indian boy and an orphan in
India.
"There is the Sunday school teaching.

81 made it my first effort to spare Mr..
Beechers time by attending to his CORES
pondence and to financial matters. Our
desks stood in adjoining windows, and it
was only with the most important letters
that troubled him. Some of these he an
swered, on others he would write four or
five words as guide to me. The checks
for his salary were made payable to me,
and if he wanted money he came to me for
it, except that he retained the proceeds of
his lectures, making himself fund of
spending money
81 saw all callers who came to the house,
so many of them only curiosity seekers.
When he was in the house 1 never left it,
and so his energies were not drawn on ex
cept in cases of Importance and urgency.
81 was not able to do in addition great
amount of parish visiting, though l did
what was possible. In my early married
life was to lead the female prayer meet
ing, but it was very hard for me and l did
not continue.
ut was in the war days that we were
lifted out of ourselves completely. 1 re-
member the dispatch that came to US one
at Peekskill, where Mr.. Beecher was recu-
perating from hay fever, saying that his
boys-the Brooklyn phalanx- and the other
regiments at Fort Schuyler were without
| food and without clothes.
81 came down to the city Immediately and
crossed to Fort Schuyler to see the condi-
| ton of things. / wouldn't think of being
pulled across the narrows in row boat
now, but then one hadn't time to think of
being afraid. Then 1 went about to the
bakers for their stale loaves, and with an
express wagon to the shops for mattresses
and blankets and-but can't talk about
minister's wives. If l had thought the
"reminiscences l have been writing would
have taken me back through so many years
of my life 1 could not have begun them,'
and Mrs. Beecher's face beneath her white
hair became thoughtful.
The wife of the Rev.. DIR. Theodore L.
Cuyler, whose influence through his books
has been worldwide, believes that the
work of the minister's wife can be done
most gently and efficiently in her OWE
| home.

So strangely near does woman like Mrs.
Abbottstand to the trials, the joys and the
sorrows that make up the daily lives of
other people. OF the Ladies' Society of
plymouth church Mrs. Henry Ward
Beecher is president, and on rainy after
moons the members spare her the labor of
going out by gathering in the parlors of her
home in Orange street, flower decked and
vocal with bird songs
"The work of PASTORS wife, said Mrs.
Beecher, Unjust differ widely in different
cases. Some ministers believe their wives
can aid them most efficiently by giving
them quiet and restful homes. others like
to see their wives active also in parish
duties.

In the other model Redfern shows his
versatility by giving US very odd cape Of
leaf green silk which is so transparent as to
show the lining of soft rose color. The cape
is slashed over the arms and laced with pink
and silver cords. In this design Redfern's
artist has embodied the very spirit Of
