WOMAN'S WORLD.
MISS WILLARD WRITES TO THE
METHODIST CONFERENCE.

Putting Away Heavy Clothing-women
at Yale-The Astor VILLA Little Sailor
Boy-Interesting Items About Women
in Public Life and at the Fireside.
Frances L. Willard, the president of
the Woman's Christian Temperance
union, was excluded from the Methodist
fgenoral conference in 1888, with four
other women delegates, because of her
sex. A letter from Miss Willard to the
Omaha World-Herald created a good
deal of discussion at the recent session
of the Methodists. She said in sub
stance:
II Ibid not believe that the co-working
of men and women as the laity of the
Methodist church woul&ske to the great
advantage of the church as whole, l
should never have declared for that side
in the great controversy. This goes
without saying, think, on the part of
all the good Methodist people who have
devoted thought and effort to the move
ment in the last years.
have always believed that the word
"laity" meant the men and women who
4 were in the church and were not minis
ters, and that an explicit and clear ex-
PLANTATION of this definition was made in
the Discipline. No augmentation has
moved my mind in the slightest degree
concerning this view, and l am conf
dent that it will be held by historians
when the smoke and din of the battle
shall have cleared away. The common
ethics of the outside world would be
sufficient to teach that it is not just for
one-third of church to exclude from
laws by which they are controlled the
other two-thirds.
l have never doubted the outcome in
church SO large, open hearted and
clear headed as the one founded by
Susanna Wesley's son. 1t is only II
question of time, and / do not think that
the time is going to be long; tokens are
on every hand to prove this, and the
. Omaha conference has given not few
already. 1t is my earnest hope that the
conference will vote that the word
"laity" means, in respect to delegates,
just what it has always meant in the
common acceptation Of the term. name
ly, those members of the church who are
not ministers. This is the very simple,
reasonable and just way out of the
present controversy, which to my mind
was wholly unnecessary, and is to be
greatly regretted, except that it has
caused great amount of reflection, and
has procured "an arrest of thought"
among hundreds of thousands of well
intentioned minds. Yours, for the
Methodist of the future, etc.

A Woman Kills a Panther.

One day last week Mrs. D. NJ. Will
kinson, who lives on a ranch near the
Hemet dam, heard long continued
squealing among her drove of pigs and,
suspecting some depredator, hurried out
with shotgun. She was just i'll time
to detain huge panther with prompt
salute of her shotgun rs he was in the
act of making off with pig. Mrs. Will
kinson, being thoroughly Injured to the
ways of mountain life, is "a good shot,
and she srV eded in dispatching the
ferocious creature without delay. 1t is
evident by this prompt action that the
lady is possessed of more than ordinary
nerve in not becoming frightened at so
savage an animal.-San Jacinto (Cal.)

Putting Away Heavy Clothing.

The moth is the bane of the house
keeper, but after all it is not difficult
to escape its inroads. The mother moth
flies about in search of suitable place
to deposit her eggs, and she selects wool
en- fabrics or fur and likes it all the bet
ter if it is soiled. The grub once out of
the egg feeds on what is nearest it, and
so we find an assortment of holes where
we left solid cloth. Now, if garments
are put away clean and absolutely free
from moths eggs and are protected from
the flying moths, they are safe without
camphor or any of the disagreeable
odors that are resorted to. A number
of stout calico bags sewed up with dou-
BILE seams and tied tightly at the top
with tapes are most useful.
Let all be distinctly labeled, and not
be so large but that each one can be de.
voted to one class of garments. For in
stance, imagine the convenience of a
row of bags hung up in your storeroom,
one labeled children's woolen stockings,
another woolen hoods, tippets and nit
tens, and SO on. How easy to get them
the moment they are wanted, without
diving to the bottom of a miscellaneous
ly filed trunk. Coats, dresses, ETC.,
that must not be tumbled, may be nicely
folded, wrapped in newspaper and laid
In large paper boxes, labeled and put on
the closet shelf.
Long bags, the full length of dress or
cloak, with hanging loops at top, save
from creasing as well as from dust and
moths. Blankets should be washed in
the spring rather than the fall, and nut
away In bags, always leaving out enough
for the cold nights that occur even in
summer. They can be kept safe and
neat in pillow cases, always within
reach when needed.
The windows of storeroom or closet
should be protected against moths and
flies by fine netting. A good way to
discover the presence of moths, and also
to destroy them, is to place lighted
candle in basin of water. The moths
will be attracted by the flame and will
drop into the water. The burning of
camphor gum or sulphur will destroy
insects. The basin of water Is always
necessary as safeguard against fire. In
that place your little iron pot, half filled
with ashes, and the camphor or sulphur.
Saturate this with alcohol and set it
afire. Have the room closed tightly
while the smoking is going on, and be
sure no one inhales the fumes. Next in
effacy to this is the Persian insect
powder. But after all these precautions,
one moth may find its way into u closet
or chest, and the close bag or wrapper is
the only safeguard.-New York Ex.

A Boston Girls High Notes.

Miss Evangeline Florence halls from
Boston, and her chief title to notice is
that she possesses probably the highest
voice Of any singer now before the pub
lie. If we allow for the enhancement
of pitch which has taken place since the
year ITO, the feats of Agujari have
been fully equaled by Miss Florence.
She touched the high B natural in altis-
simo in the presence of small audience
few days before the concert, and at
the concert itself, in "Russian Night
ingale" song by Alabieff, sang the high
g and A flat in the concluding cadenza
without any undue effort. Quite as re-
markable rs the extraordinary range of
Miss Florence's voice was her disin.
clination to make any special parade Of
1t. Although she sang half dozen
times, it was only in the one song we
have mei - ned that she gave practical
proof of the possession of this Eiffel
register. And although the audience,
which was packed with singers and
singing masters, would gladly have
beard her again, she declined an encore
