Patient Walters.

The Italian singers, Sofia and Giulia
Ravogli, who became quite suddenly the
delight of London musical circles, are
very modest and patient women. They
can bear to defer enjoyment even of
the praise which is theirs by right.
Mile. Giulia was one day talking
with friend, who happened to make
some remark about the enthusiastic no.
tices the two singers had received from
all the London papers.
Eyes, every one tell me so," replied
she in her pretty, broken English, "and
we get such a lot of funny little rolls of
de brown paper sent to us many time in
de day, and we puts dem all in dis big
drawer, to save up when we go home"
Here she pulled out the drawer and
displayed quantity of newspapers, not
one of which had been opened.
''But don't you look at them?" asked
the visitor.
"Oh, no, not yet we look; but see
here! dis is a book which shall contain
dem some day"
Thereupon she displayed with great
pride perfectly new and empty scrap
book, which she confessed had at
tracted her by it's red and blue index
letters. In that "some day" would see
her fame enrolled, but she was content
to wait for leisure to accomplish the
pleasing task.-Youth's Companion.

Woman in Politics.

Unquestionably woman is in politics,
and in it to stay. That her influence
will be wholesome is indisputable
Woman is instinctively honest. If not
so well versed as man in the details of
practical politics, she has the gift Of
grasping intuitively the real merits of a
question, and coupled Herewith a quail
ity of enthusiasm which goes far to
make up for her lack of the ballot. The
women of this country have already
given one signal illustration of their
prowess. They will be apt to give still
more impressive lesson in November
next.-Philadelph Record.

"Co-eds" Favor Reform Dresses.

The closing sensation of the univer-
sity year was sprung when it was an
nounced that the "Co-eds" had almost
unanimously agreed to adopt for next
years wear the "rainy day Dress, y
which Mrs. Jenness Miller advocated
during her recent visit here. A docu-
ment has been circulated among the fe-
male students for the past week, and
has already secured sufficient signatures
to assure the success of the scheme.
The dress which Mrs. Miller advocated
reaches only to the knees, and is mar
vel of sweet simplicity, comfort and
common sense. The first rainy day next
year will be great day in Ann Arbor
if the "Co-eds" stick to their pledges

WOMAN'S WORLD.
HOME AND HOME FOLKS AFTER
THE SUMNER VACATION.

Patient waiters-Mother's vacation-A
woman's Project-Advice for Hot
weather--Beware of Summer Colds.
Notes for Mothers and Housekeepers.
Though it is perhaps a little soon to
think of returning from ones summer
outing when there are so many who
have not yet gone away, and as also the
weather wooes us from rather than to-
ward the city, yet one cannot control
the current of the mind to such degree
that there will not loiter somewhere in
the corners the anticipation of what will
be done when we once again reach
home.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder,
especially of the inanimate objects left
behind. 1t is perfect delight to note
the chairs just where they used to stand;
the little knickknacks in our own room
telling their tale of gifts with pleasant
associations, and becoming acquainted
all over again with the workings OF the
home. In all the days that have gone so
swiftly by have we ever met any among
the many new acquaintance that could
compare with the home folks? Were there
ever such dear, gracioHs, lovable people
in the world as father and mother? No
girl was SO pretty or boy so clever as the
sister and brother who are most hearty
in their welcome, their kisses and loving
little pats of affection keeping up even
when hat and wrap have been laid aside.
Even though we may not be physically
benefited one iota by our summer out
ing, yet to every one trip of a few days
is beneficial in one way, at least-it
brings out the home folks and home sur
roundings in an entirely different light
when compared with the glamour and
insincerity of the outside world, and un-
less the mind is shallow and the inclina-
tions most frivolous, there will be no
yearnings for the pomps and vanities,
but thankful heart and rare apprecia-
ton of the genuineness of the dear ones
who love us for ourselves.-Philadel-
phia Times.

An Aid in Canning Time.

The skin of the tomato is very tough
and disagreeable, and its presence in
tomato salad is decided drawback to
that dainty dish. The ordinary process
of peeling is, however, accompanied
with much difficulty, so that it may be
of much interest to our readers to know
better method. 1t is this: Drop the
tomatoes into boiling water, remove
after few seconds immersion and the
skin will come off without any trouble
whatever. The reason of this of course
is that the heat of the water acts on the
skin and causes it to expand before it
has time to affect the fruit itself; hence
the skin becomes detached and can be
peeled off without great difficulty

Avoiding the Taste of Codliver Oil.

A fascinating belle on the heights is
said to have found new use for cod
liver oil. This young woman is charm
ing, but she is too thin to risk another
season of evening gowns until she has
reformed. Her physician imperatively
ordered codliver oil. Now the young
woman hates cod liver oil with fervent
hatred, and after she had taken half a
bottle, in freak of anger she began to
apply the rest externally. Strange to
relate, her skin grew smoother and
fairer. She kept on, and the desired
plumpness began to appear on her
shoulders.
The young woman is on the Massa-
chusetts coast, ostensibly for the sea
bathing, but her druggist has sent her a
case of codliver oil in plain package
by express, and if she comes home with
a complexion of roses and cream he will
not believe it was wholly the effect of
sea bathing Brooklyn Eagle.

A Medical Lady on a Tricycle..

In Birmingham a lady doctor of celeb
rity is in the habit of going on her
round of visits on tricycle.. Her dress
is peculiarly peat and pleasing-a dark,
striped costume of woolen stuff; small
dark hat and fur boa; equally suitable
for sickroom or the saddle. She skins
along through the crowded streets and
the dense traffic, the courage, quickness
and ightness of touch, so useful to a
doctor, showing to great advantage, and
having daily practice ON her steel steed,
as well as at her patients bedsides.
Such practice must give the relief and
exercise necessary to brain overstrained
with work.-London Woman's Herald.

A WOman's Project,

The idea of the "New England kitch-
en-" in Boston originated with Mrs. El-
len FL. Richards, a graduate of Vassar
college, and the only woman instructor
in the great Institute of Technology,
and she was ably assisted in organizing
the work by Mrs. Mary Hinman Abel,
whose essay on sanitary and economic
cooking won the prize offered by tho
American Public Health association.
Financial support was given by Mrs.
Quincy A. Shaw, who thus added one
more to her many practical philanthropic
works.
On Jan. "a, 1890, the kitchen was
opened for the sale of food, a sufficient
time having been previously spent in
collecting facts and making scientific
experiments, to make the public test of
them desirable. The kitchen is now es-
tablished on business basis, and in it's
regular work is self sustaining. The
aim to prove sort of object lesson in
cleanliness has been successful, but has
cost more effort and money than were
estimated at the outset. One of the
chief difficulties has been in securing
trained helpers or even those willing to
learn.-Gertrude Talbot in Onward and

Seed Decorations.

The use of seeds for purposes of SIM
pie ornamentation is'very old, and has
of late been revived with good effect for
embroidering fancy articles. The best
seeds are those of the melon, vegetable
marrow and cucumber, assorted accord
ing to size, shape and color. After the
design has been traced ON the material,
which may be velvet, plush, cloth or
silk, the stalks are put in with gold or
maize colored silk in stem, chain or her.
ringbone stitch, and the leaves outlined
in a similar manner. Then the seeds
are placed in position and fixed by
stitch at either end, care being taken to
make them lie fiat.
Among the flowers which can be imi-
tated in seed work are marguerites,
asters, starwort, jasmine, etc. Ears
of corn OF barley are very effective,
though more difficult to work, owing to
the seeds having to be packed close to-
gether. On a foundation Of maroon
velvet or crimson cloth the seeds stand
out like ivory in bold relief.
The calyx of the buds is done in crewel
work OF silk. This work can be adapted
to fancy articles of various kinds, such
as table borders and centers, banner
screens, tea cozies, etc.-Decorator and
