The Ability of Marion Harlsnd and Hei
Talented Children.
Mrs. Christine Terhune Herrick, the
talented daughter of Marion Harland,
is wonderfully like her gifted mother
In appearance there is marked re-
semblance, and the photographs which
are taken of Mrs. Herrick might easily
be mistaken for those of her mother.
Marion Harland is remarkably young
woman for one who has grandchildren,
and Mrs Herrick has n manner which
makes her seem more mature than her
years. Although for several years a
wife ard mother she is still very
young woman, and during her brief
literary career has made fine reputa-
ton for herself, Mrs. Herrick's style
is entirely different from her mothers,
but it is just as catchy and just as read
able and popular. To an interviewer
Marion Harland once said that the joy
which she experienced when first see.
ing her daughters writing and her own
in the same publication far surpassed
the pleasure which she felt upon see
ing her own work in print when she
began writing many years ago. To
this pleasure Marion Harland can also
add the pride of having son who
writes well, son-in-law who has n
recognized place in newspaper work,
another daughter who is gifted in ex-
preston and husband whose ability
as a preacher and writer is too well
known for comment. Chicago Post

Women Prize Winners.

The place attained by women at the
examinations Of the University of Lon
don is regarded with particular pride
by those interested in womans educa-
tional advancement, for not only are
the tests more severe than those of any
other English examining body, but the
men and women students meet on an
equal footing, and prizes are offered
for their competition without favor on
either side At the summer examina.
tions the women students fairly held
their own, although the distinctions be-
tween the subjects of study affected by
men and women are strongly marked.
In Latin but one woman's name ap-
pears and that in the second class,
while in English three out of four stu
dents who take honors are women. In
mathematics, too, one woman figures
alone, Gerton student, who has OBJ
tanned first class honors, Altogether
the Homeric list is creditable record

interest, and in investing them with po'
tent philosophical significance she be-
comes as truly an interpreter as any
poet
A slender, dark-eyed, dark-haired
woman with n genial smile, Miss Welch
possesses in marked degree a pleasing
and winning presence. Being lineal
descendant of John Alden and Priscilla
as there is much in the run OF tho
blood-it is quite natural that she
should have devoted her leisure to in
vestigating the history with which her
distinguished ancestors were so inti-
mately connected.
Miss Welch was connected with the
editorial staff of the Buffalo Courier for
ten years, and it was during that time
that, as matter Of inclination, she de-
voted her leisure to the study of Ameri-
can history. The Jealous interest which
was developed by her study led her to
discuss the subject with her friends,
who soon began to share her enthusiasm
and to urge her to give regular infor-
NAL talks in her mothers parlor. Soon
the fame of these talks reached Chau-
tauqua, and Miss Welch was invited to
speak there. She was received with
enthusiasm, and now has charge of the
department of American history in the
Chautauqua extension course.
Miss Welch holds that women will be
especially benefited by the study OF
American history, and quoting James
Bryce as saying that no country owes
so much to its women as does America,
or owes them so much in the beliefs
that govern conduct, she adds that
America will owe great deal more TO
its women when they have mastered
American history. Chicago Post

The ordinary sprain as rule receives
but little attention, and the indifference
with which it is regarded often leads to
serious after effects. If the stream of
running water which most people know
enough to have recourse to in case of
sprain be supplemented by the applica-
ton Of plaster composed of one part
OF carbonate Of lead and two parts of
olive oil in ordinary cases very little
subsequent trouble is likely to arise. So
effective is this plaster that DIR. Du-
hamel, who has been trying its effects
in Paris on number of hospital pa
tients, most of whom were suffering
from sprains Of the ankle, states that
his patients were able to walk as soon
as the plaster and retaining dressings
had been applied. Chicago News.

SWiNDLING is UNIVERSAL.
But 1t Generally Gets It's Compensation
I'm Its Own Coin.

But 1t Generally Gets It's Compensation
In Its own Coin.
Each season has its peculiar swindles
too numerous to mention. In summer
the iceman, who is very far from being
a nice man, reaps mis- little harvest
The iceman's bills, even in July or
August, may be called n cold steal In
winter the plumber challenges our ad-
miration. Strict, honest and square
dealing is not obtained even in the ad-
ministration of justice. A colored gen.
tleman who adhered too closely to a
valuable dog, on which he had not even
a mortgage or builders lien, got two
years at Sing Sing, while the average
Doodle alderman gets anew trial, or an
acouittal. The man who steals dol
lar is called thief, while the man who
fcloniously absorbs million is called a
brilliant financier; and so he is, but he
is simultaneously thief, all the same.
However, there are compensations.
For instance, the alderman who boobies,
in turn is severely bodied by the legal
gentlemen who attended to his (the
boodler's) vindication. The merchant
who fines his clerks, and otherwise
robs them, is victimized by the fashion
able female kleptomaniac, who has
such taking ways. The. American exile
in Canada has to pay quarter for a
drink of whisky. The wealthy coal
dealer or the Wall-street broker mad
vertently visits church fair, and
when he comes out he feels as bad as If
he had been interviewed by the Pull

Extract From Lecture by DIR. j. ii. Kel
logg, of tho Battle Creek sanitarlum.
We sometimes hear about the "mis.
takes Of Noses" but no one has ever
shown that Moses made any mistakes
In his sanitary code, 1t has been ac.
cepted as correct from his time to ours,
and no very important Improvements
have been made on it. 1t is now better
understood than 1t was half n century
ago, even. The wisdom of the princi-
Piles laid down Is simply marvellous; no
law giver ever formulated a code OF
health so far.seeing and so correct 1t
was the first employment of the quar-
antihe. The reason therefor was doubt
less not understood then, nor was it a
hunured years ago, or even twenty
years ago. We now know that leprosy
is germ disease. You will remember
the good Catholic Father Damien, who
labored in a leprous colony on one of
the islands of the Pacific. He took
great pains to protect himself from in
fection, and mingled with tire lepers for
many years without contracting the
disease; but by and by, happening to
have little erosion on BALD spot on
his scalp, a fly which had just visited a
leper perched on this spDt and infected
it with the dread disease. The fly is a
dangerous scavenger. and should be
kept out of our houses.
In the time of Moses, If house was
infected, it was treated in the most
radical manner When an outbreak of
leprosy appeared on the wall, the peo-
pic had to move out the plaster
ing was torn off, the house was
shut up and the rubbish all taken
way. And what was done with the rub
bish? 1t was not put into a neighbors
back yard nor emptied into the street,
nor hauled off and dumped on vacant
lot 1t was taken clear out of the city
so that it would not affect any other
house. They did not whitewash the in
fected spot over and then move back;
nor did they newly paper the walls as
people treat such houses nowadays.
The house was cleansed and shut up,
and, If after week, the leprosy mold
was found breaking out again, showing
evidence that the leprosy was deep in
walls then the whole house was destroy
ed and the bricks were all carried off. By
this means houses were kept free from
mold and germs A house in the con-
dition that germs will readily develop
in 1t is not fit to live in. Moses did not
understand all about the nature of
germs, but he understood cleanliness
and quarantine and these are the best
possible means of disinfection. Re-

A KITCHEN NECESSITY.
The Heating Closet and Its Various

The Heating Closet and Its Various
The heating closet of stove or range
is part OF its furniture which the or
dinary cook often ignores, In nine
kitchens out of ten, one will find it
cluttered up with ashes aud dust or
used as depository for the kindling
wood, if it is used at all In point of
fact, the heating closet of range is
second in Importance only to the oven
in its usefulness to the cook Here is
where hot dishes, compelled to wait a
moment, while a meal is being served,
should be left In extreme cold weather
it is one of the best places to set rolls or
bread to raise in the pans. If the bread
is we'll covered up, it will not become
dry on top kept in this way, and will
rise rapidly and evenly. This is an eX-
cellent place in which to dry
stale bread before rolling it
and sitting it. A quantity of stale
bread broken up and laid on pans for
twenty-four hours in the heating closet
will be dry enough to be crushed easily
to powder by the end Of that time. 1t
is good place in which to dry noodles
if there is not large fire in the stove
and it is not too warm. After the
plates for any meal have been heated,
as they should be by dipping them in
boiling water, they may be wiped and
kept at an equable temperature in the
heating closet without danger of their
becoming superheated and the enamel
becoming cracked. Slices of pumpkin
and fruits of various kinds may be dried
for future use by setting them on plates
! in this closet. The good cook will find
that the use of the heating closet will
save her many steps and much incon-
venence when she once learns its val
