Odd En- plONment for Women.

In the most recent of her lectures, en-
titled New and Odd Employments of
Women" Miss Virginia Penny shows that
there are few fields of labor in which wom-
en- of today have not engaged. and that
their ingenuity in devising new occupa-
tions is not eXcelled by that of man. Per
sons who have observed the progressive
emancipation of woman will find among
the occupations she mentions some that
are unusually interesting and novel. One
woman makes "A business of dressing
wealthy women for parties receptions and
other social affairs. She selects the ma
terals, directs the styles in which the
dresses are to be made and decides upon
the jewels, gloves and other accessories.
She also dresses and trims the hair, and
arranges and loops the dresses. The dis
play of her taste and judgment is well paid
for
A woman in Los Angeles has made
speciality of the art of decorating rooms for
dinner and evening parties. She sends her
card to all newcomers who have homes
and are likely to entertain. She decorates
the rooms with flowers, arranges the ia
bles, festoons the draperies and brings out
the harmony of color with wonderful eff
feet. Another California woman, who fol-
lows a similar occupation, had charge of
wedding. California society still talks of
the wedding of Herman Oelrichs and Their
esa Fair at San Francisco, in May, 1890.

ordered by the girl, and the kind depends
largely on the kind of grocer they patron
ize. Before settling on any brand of salt
it would be wise precaution to test its
purity, which every housekeeper can do to
her own satisfaction by placing small
quantity in a clear glass partially filled
with water. Stir thoroughly and then al
low it to settle, when the impurities will
float above the salt and show which varie-
ty keeps the cleanest and brightest. This
is a simple experiment but only one of
many which the wise housekeeper tries to
test the food productions used in her home.
The majority fail to appreciate the large
sums of money which have been recently
paid to chemists by certain food companies
to bring about results not only palatable,
but of such pure nature that they well
meet the demands of doctors and scientists
Too many people are inclined to look upon
food as the meat and vegetables which best
please their peculiar tastes, without taking
into consideration that food is fuel, and
that to reach the best development of hui
man life they must have the most noursh-
ing food materials prepared by the most
scientific process. brooklyn Eagle.

Things the Queen May Not Do.

Queen Victoria, not being born queen,
probably learned to read just like other
persons. But after she became afflicted
with royalty, she found that a queen is not
allowed to have a great many privileges
that the humblest of her subjects can
boast. For instance, she isn't allowed to
handle newspaper of any kind, nor a
magazine, nor a letter from any person eX
cept from her own family, and no member
of the royal family or household is allowed
to speak to her of any piece of news in any
publication.
All the Information the queen is permit
ted to have must first be strained through
the intellect of "A man whose business it is
to cut out from the papers each day what

TO MY MOTHER.

My mother, the love that is given,
Is the lifebood that flows from my heart.
Far better 1t were to have riven
The soul and the body apart,
Than to leave thus alone in lfe's desert,
In the fierce, binding glare and the heat,
One tired and heartsick and weary,
No guide for the faltering feet.
My mother, the future holds nothing
A dreary road chilled by the blast,
And the phantoms that glide on before me
Are the ghosts of dead hopes of the past.
They point with their cold, icy fingers
At the grave of my heart, and its chill,
and they mock at the voiccless moaning
From memory nothing can still.
Yet your face ever rises before me
see you, so tender, so true,
Till it seems heaven were hell without you,
And hell were heaven with you.
] feel yolr cool hand on my forehead,
gaze nu your eyes tender blue,
And know hold all of earth's riches
And all IF life's joys in you.
All quivering with pain, am knecling,
At thy feet with n chid's pleading love,
While out ON my souls darkness tluttcrs
The wings of thy mercy's white dove.
hear thy low voice in the twilight,
Nlngling in with the mist of the rain,
Till it stills all my heart : throbbing tumult,
And soothes into sweetness the pain.
And know. were my dearest wish granted,
1t would be, with my head on your breast,
And my eyes on your face that love SO,
might close them forever-to rest.
And to knort'N' Efe's sacrifice brought you
Each day an."1 10y to reap,
One last loo, your eyes and I'd lay me

aud inserting it between his two acres of

mans query, he continued: Now that is
lesson to the peOple-an object lesson-to
teach them how elections in the future may
be carried" No response; and while the
small but select crowd in the grocery were
wondering whether his ponderousness had
reference to the colonization scheme, the
direct buying up of al incen6iary but ire
sponsible mob, or some other political
trickery little old man leaned on his
