THE democracy has occasion to be

The Way to Work.

"The forewoman in our sewing

neckwear recently. lis likely to be at
the head of an esta ablishment of her own
some day. She came to us as an ap-
prentice, and is an excellent illustra-
ton of what a woman, or man, either,
may accomplish who gives her mind en-
tirelv to her work. She did not even
sew very well at first, but improved
from the first day. She advanced rap
idly in the sewing room, doing the finest
work. Then she began to have ideas
about scarfs and ties which we were
only too glad to develop. She is fore
woman now; but we often send her out
to select stuffs, and her choice is always
artistic and original. When | compli-
mented her the other day on specially
important suggestion, said to her:
"'How do You think of all these
things%
"'Why,' she replied, eat, drink and
sleep neckties. They are never out OF

WOMEN AS DOCTORS.
Received Into the Medical Profession Now
adays With Increasing Freedom.

Received Into the Medical Profession Now
adays with Increasing Freedom.
Until generation ago woman doc
tor was hardly known within the circle
of the regular medical profession, and
they were looked upon in every com
munity as charlatans or cranks. The
prejudice against them entering tho
medical profession was almost univer-
sal, and the prejudice of women against
their own sex in profession for which
they should be specially fitted and in
which, according to the Philadelphia
Times. they are specially needed. was
even more profound than the same
prejudice among the sterner sex. But
steadily although slowly, public senti-
ment has advanced to accord to women
che obviously just right of entering ans
of the professions, and women now
practice both law and medicine Ia ,very
section of the country.
The progress of the age In advancing
women to their just rights in the battle
of life was impressively illustrated in
the academy of music recently, when
forty-two young women appeared upon
the stage as graduates of the women's
medical college, of this city, with their
fairly won titles of doctors Of medicine.
1t is gratifying to know that this col
lege has been in existence for forty
years but it is only within the last
score of years that it has been able to
present anything approaching grad'l-
ating class respectable in number. Now
women practitioners are not only
known but respected in almost every
community, and the success they have
attained in the profession more than
justifes the great battle that was
fought to win for them open doors to
distinction in the profession.
1t will seem strange to the readers OF
history half a century hence to learn
that women were excluded from the
professions of the country until even
after the noontide of the nineteenth
century. for there is little reason to
doubt that in much less than half
century women physicians will fairly
divide the medical practice with their
professional brethren, and men physi-
clans, in the many cases in which every
consideration of delicacy should prefer
a woman physician, will be quite as un-
common as women were year ago.
The world moves.

A NEWSPAPER WOMAN.
Mrs. Ida A. Harper and Her Work on
the indianapolis Dailies.

Mrs. Ida A. Harper and Her Work on
the indianapolis Dailies.
The career of Mrs. Ida A. Harper, who
was the guest of the press league at the
Auditorium hotel, in Chicago, recently,
and is the leading editorial and
editorial paragraph writer Of the
Indianapolis News, has been in several
respects unusual The common incen-
tive to laborious endeavors is for the
most part at least in the beginning,
necessity, although sometimes long con-
tinued habit makes effort easier than
idleness. 1t was fondness for writing
and no other reason which induced
Mrs. Harper first to devote herself
ing which induced her to take up regu-
lar newspaper work. For eleven years
Mrs. Harper conducted department
called "A Woman's Opinions" in the
Terre Haute Mail. At this time the
Mail was the most prominent Saturday
evening paper in Indiana, and these ar
ticles were widely copied. Mrs. Harper
is capable of doing an immense amount
of regular work. At one time she
of correspondence for eleven differ
ent papers, sending to each letter
expressly prepared and quite unlike
either of the others. For nine years she
has conducted the women's department
in the Locomotive Firemen's Magazine,
which is one of the most widely circu-
lated of any of the labor publications.
In speaking of it she says that she con-
siders this her most important work, on
account of the class of women she is
able to reach through its columns. A
few years ago Mrs. Harper was offered
the associate editorship of the Terre
Haute Daily News She accepted the
position and in few months she was
made managing editor, which, by the
way, is a most unusual position for a
woman to occupy on political daily.
During the time that she occupied this
position there occurred one of the most
exciting municipal campaigns in the
history of the city. Taking the best
men from the two tickets she made up
an independent ticket, and every man
she thus nominated was elected She
continued in this position until she &C.
cepted the one she now occupies of asso-
ciate editor of the Indianapolis News.
Mrs. Harper is a thoroughly feminine
woman, and is not Indifferent to any
thing which interests her sex, and, In
deed, is keenly interested in all tina,
concerns humanity. She is an advocate
of the higher education for women, and
is preparing her only daughter for a
university course. She is the represent.
ative of the Press League for Indiana.
and is actively engaged in organizing

Miss NANCY CORNELIUS, who has just

A CORNELL girl is said to be studying
veterinary surgery. Other girl stu
dents at that college are taking the
course in agriculture. This course in
cludes modern languages and science,
and with the desire to make it popular
no tuition is demanded.
A BILL has been introduced in the
British parliament to extend to the
women of Ireland the right of munich
