Among the new clubs of Boston is the
Unity, club composed of men and
women whose object is the further
ance of art and the promotion of social
interests Its members include large
proportion of the artists of the city, and
it inaugurated its second season by a
Water color exhibition.
There are no lack of mems clubs and
of women's clubs in Boston, as in other
cities; but the club where men aud
women meet Is as rare as are most ideal
things i'll this world. The regulation
women's club is a rather dreary affair,
as it is now conducted Instead of hav-
ing parlors, reading room and dining
room always open as is the case with
mems clubs, where members may drop
in at any time and meet each other, and
invite friends and enjoy informal socia-
bility, the women's club unlocks the
doors of its portals for some one after
noon week when its members and
guests assemble, and after routine bust
ness. carried On in strict parliamentary
order, paper is read and discussed as
formally as at any public meeting, and
then the club adjourns till another week,
to go through the same routine again.
This may be all very well in some ways,
but it is not the social pleasure that club
life should render possible.
The Unity club here starts out on
other lines. 1t is, first of all, club for
men and women together. 1t has Sc
cured ideally beautiful rooms on Ar
lington street, overlooking the public
gardens. 1t has a fine gallery for pic
ture hanging, and it is based on an idea
that should develop, as the club grows
stronger. into ID very attractive and

Women and Theology.

"Women in the Pulpit" was the sub
ject of discussion at "morning lecture"
in Boston recently. The drift of opin-
ion among the speakers seemed to be
that women should be allowed to preach.
The Rev. Lorenzo Haynes, of Walthan,
said: ut is generally conceded that
women are more religious than men
certainly they form by far the larger
proportion of church members. In every
church today they do large part of the
work. Take out that work and not a
church could stand. AS three-fourths
of the church members are women, l
know of no reason why the same pro-
portion of ministers should not be wom-
en-" Mrs. Jane l.. Patterson, of Rox-
bury, spoke of what is being accom-
plished for the development of women
since Tufts college opened all its de-
partments to them. "There is no cir
cumscribing annex" she said, "no speci-
fications to hinder their progress. A
woman may enter as man does. If
she wishes to study electrical engineer
ing, she can have thorough instruction;
if she desires course in the divinity
school, the chance is given her."
The Rev. Mary T. Whitney, of Cam
bridge, could not give the same account
of Harvard. She had applied for ad-
mission to the divinity school and re-
ceived from President Eliot letter of
regret that her application could not be
favorably considered, precedent being
against it. A Miss Spofford, of Sioux

Soon the days will be crisp and snappy
and when you awake in the morning
and thrust one bare foot out from under
the cover you will give little smothered
"ouch" and cuddle down under the
blankets again. Every one knows the
kind of morning we mean, when the
window panes are covered with delicate
traceries left by the artist Jack Frost,
and when compromise is effected by
putting ON ones stockings and shoes in
bed.
Now it is just this kind of weather
that makes us neglect our toilet. We
hurry through our additions, giving a
little dab at our face-an apology for a
good wash-and get down stairs as
quickly as we can. When we go out
doors we are shivery and creepy; we
don't feel more than half awake, and
we are very uncomfortable altogether.
OF course it is ever SO much nicer to
battle in warm room in tepid waite:

Another Woman Arctic Explorer.

Travel in the far north has hitherto
been attempted only by men, but the
year 1892 has witnessed the breaking up
of this monopoly. Mrs. Peary accom-
panied her husband to point farther
north than any white woman has ever
before penetrated, and early last sum-
mer Miss Elizabeth Taylor started from
Winnipeg for the Mckenzie river delta.
and from this expedition she has just
returned. Miss Taylor is by nature a
traveller and by education an artist, and
is greatly interested in natural history.
She started on her trip alone and made
it alone successful to the end.
She is the first woman explorer that
has ever ventured into the polar regions
On her own account, and with an

would have done credit to a strong man

YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSO-
CATION OF BROOKLYN.

Boston's Mixed Ciub-The Daily Morning

ling UndersIxirt-ChiIdren's Ailments--A
Woman Arctic Explorer.
Brooklyn is celebrating the completion
of the building of the Young Women's
Christian association, an institution
which promises to do an important work
for Brooklyn, where so many working
women reside. The building, which is
erected on site partly purchased and
partly given by the late Congressman s.
B. Chittenden, is the munifcent gift of
Cornelius B. Wood, and is erected as
memorial of his wife, who was sister
of Robert g. Ogden, of the firm of John
Wanamaker. Mrs. Wood was woman
of an exalted type, and her life was nota-
BILE for its spirituality and charity. Mr..
Wood is a retired banker of wealth. In
December, 1890, Mr. Wood offered to
give 1926, 900 to erect building for the
association, provided 100000 additional
was raised as a permanent endowment.
"This gift" said Mr.. Wood in his letter,
lis made TO honor life of charity and
love by husband and children in men,
oriam of one who was friend of work
ing girls, who rejoiced when the associa-
ton was organized, who labored for it
and had faith in the grand work it would
accomplish.
Mr. Wood not only gave 1925, 900, but
increased this to $142, 000 The endow-
ment fund now amounts to $122, sol, and
the association is aiming to increase
this to $l50,000. The building is CEN
trally located, and intellectually is an
ornament to the city. The vestibule
contains big open fireplace. Opposite
to this is the secretary's room. On this
floor are also the cloakroom and the en-
frances to the elevators, and through
great well in the center one can look up
through the six stories to the roof In
the basement are a medical department
and fully equipped pharmacy, gym
nasium and the intelligence office. The
library, already filled, is on the second
floor. 1t is light and airy room and is
furnished with a gallery and storage
apartments. A room for typewriters is
off the library, and from this floor access
is had to the gallery of the memorial
hail.
Over the hall on the third floor is
large lecture room with seating capac-
ity of 400, and there is well furnished
parlor connected with the lecture room.
The fourth and fifth stories are devoted
to eighteen classrooms. where millinery
dressmaking, sewing, embroidery, cook
ing, language, history, bookkeeping,
arithmetic and penmanship are taught
by eighty-seven instructors. The memo
rial hall which has been alluded to is a
beautiful room containing seats for $50
and has been furnished by the Alumne
association of the Brooklyn Heights SEMI
mary. This hall has been named in
honor of Mary A. Brigham, who was ;.
famous teacher of her time.-Cor. Phil

"ohuu III vermont.
The great event of the day in politics
for women is the passage of the munich
pal suffrage bill in the Vermont house
of representatives by the large majority
of 149 to SO. Laura Moore, secretary of
the w. s. A., writes that the Vermont
men are as kind and generous as are the
men of Wyoming or Kansas, and when
ever we can get enough of the right sort
into a legislature Vermont women will
receive justice at their hands.
Close upon this success, however,
comes news of defeat in New Zealand,
where the long agitated bill to give full
suffrage to women has failed again to
pass. One of the main points in the dis
pute was the unnecessary proviso il
serted by the upper house allowing
women to use voting papers instead of
going in person to the booths; for when
ever women are allowed to vote they are
ready to follow the rules.

French women, it appears, have been
drinking orchid tea for fifty years, and
the consumption of this expensive deli
cacy has much increased of late. The
orchid from which the tea is made is a
member of one of the handsomest and
most expensive families which grows in
the forests Of Bourbon and Mauritius.
The decoction is easy. You just lay the
leaves and stalks in cold water, about
one gram to a teacup-more or less,
according to taste-close the vessel tight
and boil for ten minutes. The tea may
be sweetened.-London Society.

What Suffrage Is,

We are often asked what suffrage is,
and what it will do for us. 1t is the
standard that leads the way, and the
want of it is the bar that stands in the
way of everything else. 1t is the demand
for suffrage that has helped to bring all
the gains we have already won, and
these in their turn will help to bring
suffrage.-Mrs. Ednah D. Cheney.
