The brides bouquet should always be
made of white flowers. In England, eucha-
lis gardenia, orange blossoms and stephan
otis are frequently used; with us very
seldom. The most fashionable bouquet in
America consists of white orchids, lily of
the valley or Of white roses, following in
the order named. Lily Of the valley is fire.
pucntly mixed with either orchids or roses,
but orchids and roses are seldom used in
the same bouquet They are rival queens
That are happicst apart.
\ pretty idea TO arrange the brides bou-
luet is to have il composed of several sec
lions, that after the bride leaves the house
the maid Of honor may distribute to those
friends whom the bride may wish to honor.
The ribbon can remain on the section in
tended for the brides mother ttimes the
bride has a favorite flower or there is a bit
Df romance or sentiment attached to some
polorod flower, such as a violet or JAG
quem!nOt rose, and she wishes this included
in her bouquet. When they are used let it
be a small bunch partly concealed. After
the reception it may be taken from the
bouquet and worn Gu the travelling dress.
The ribbon for the bouquet should
be either three yards of 3-inch ribbon to
match the gown in tone and texture, or
twenty or thirty yards Of very narrow rib
bon, with long bows, the ends extending
down at different lengths, with delicate
flowers attached TO a number Of these ends.
Sometimes a large bow Of ribbon is tied
and arranged as though it Were coming
from the center of the bouquet. The rib
bon thus used has no meaning, and is very
apt to become soiled by the moisture on
the flowers. As the brides bouquet is al
ways white, those carried by the brides
maids Should, as a contrast, have some
rolor. il the bride in choosing her attend
pnts has been fortunate in securing de-
rdcd blends and brunettes, strong and
beautiful color contrasts can be obtained
In both gowns and flowers. The fiat clus-
ter, or rustic bunch" is often used. In
arranging such cluster it is wise to have
1t arranged carelcssly, or rather not to
interfere too much with nature.-II. II.

Should Married Women Teach?

The question comes to us from over the
ocean, should married women teach ="
Well, should married womenl preach2
Should they work, sew, laugh, walk or do
anything anybody else does2 1t takes a
long time to get the idea out of the minds
Of the people that IA married woman has no
right 10 step outside the threshold of her
own home. Let the question be settled at
home. If woman can teach, and both
husband and wife are agreed that she may
teach, why shouldn't she teach?
IN snny respects married woman is
better fitted to teach than an unmarried
woman. The general law made by some
cities that no married woman can be en-
ployed in school is unjust There are
many such married persons, whom to re
move from the schools would be misfor
tune.-Teachers' Institute.

The state is an aggregation Of families
and it is appropriate that woman's place
in the law, as we'll as under the law should
be clearly defined, and that the disabilities
which have been put upon her as citizen
should be removed. Women have done
much for the advancement of women, but
men have done far more, and it is to men
that we must look for the cnfranchiscmcnt
of the sex, not through favor, but through
sense of justice; not by antagonism. but by
harmony. As man advances along the road
of progress he will scorn to put upon the
sex physically weaker any further limita-
tion than is theirs by nature.-Chicago

1t is estimated that ninc-tcnths of the
women of the globe spend their time in
making ornaments and fancy dress fabrics
for the remaining tenth to wear. There
are thousands Of women lHcomakcrs
wcavers and necdewomen who never wear
a particle of the work upon which they
spend their lives. All the delicate gar
mcnts which they make are destined to be
worn by others more fortunate i'll the dis
tribution of riches. 1t is regarded as Il
proof of woman's great vanity-this fact
that so large population of the globe is
kept busy making clothes for the few
fortunate ones to wcar.-NeW York Com

The Family Hammer.

There is one thing no family pretends
to do without-that is a hammer. And
yet there is nothing that goes to make
up the equipment Of domestic estab-
lishment that causes Onc-halt as much
agony and profanity as hammer. 1t is
always an old hammer, with a handle
that Is inclined to silver and always
bound to slip The face is as round as a
full moon and as smooth as glass. When
it strikes a nail full and square, which it
has been known to do, the act will be
found to result from combination Of
pure accidents, The family hammer is
one of those rare articles we never profit
by. When it glides off nail head and
mashes down couple Of fingers we un-
hesitatingly deposit it in the yard and
observe that we will never use it again.
But the blood has hardly dried on the
rag before We are outdoors in search of
that hammer and ready to make another
trial. The result rarely varies, but we
never profit by it. Tie awful weapon
goes on knocking off our nails and mash
ing whole joints and slipping off the
handle to the confusion Of mautel orna-
ments and breaking the commandments
and cutting up an assortment OF as
founding and unfortunate antics with
out let or hindrance. And yet we put
up with it, and put the handle on again,
and lay it away where it won't get lost,
and do up orr mutilated and smarting
fingers; aud yet, if the outrageous thing
should happen to disappear we kick up
a regular hullabaloo until it is found
again. Talk about the tyrsnnigipg inhu-
eace ofa bad habit 1t is not to be com
pared to the family hammer.
