MIS-. Lucy STONE, perhaps the earli-
est woman in Massachusetts to advocate
woman suffrage, passed her 18th birth
day quietly at her home on Pope's hill,
Dorchester, greeted by numerous
friends by letter and in person Mrs.
Stone is limited in her public speaking
by frequent attacks of rheumatism, but
maintains her post as senior editor of
the Woman's Journal, to which she
contributes weekly editorials. She pre-
serves her serenity and cheerfulness
uninpaired and her face and voice are
as sweet and charming as ever.

proper philosophy of travel in sleeping

they must have lower berth in the
middle of the car in order to insure the
greatest safety. Let them think so and
act on it. I do not. Why? Because,
as others are so anxious to get near the
middle, they fill each section, at least
one berth in each. / take the lower

of, somebody should attack the water
closet feature of railway cars, which
practice would carry the plague all
over the country. Independent of chol-
era, no doubt typhoid fever is thus con-

lagos. The closets can certainly be
improved. The present system is dan
