The Woman Problem In England.

A superior and well educated class Of
young women in England, daughters of
officers and clergymen, of professional
men as well, are seeking employment in
the London shops, where hours are
shorter and wages are better than in the
more genteel occupations of nursery
governess and schoolteacher. One of
these Independent young women says
she infinitely prefers the business work
to the hopeless monotony of the village
home life and the painfully patronizing
attention of the sqhires. And indeed if
titled ladies open tearooms and mil
linery establishments in town, why is the
shop life dishonorable for those of lower
rank?
The problem of what to do with the
daughters of Great Britain is hopelessly
involved by the great excess Of women
over men in the population, by the ten
dency of the English bachelor to wed
with American beauty and gold and the
petty conventionality which proscribes
certain phases of work as unbecoming
the dignity and rank of the daughters of
impoverished country squires or clergy
men in poor ivings, professional men of
small means and large families.-New
York Sun.

able mammas, whose private engage
ments leave no time for the irksome dis
charge of such parental duties. The
question naturally arises, Is such an ar
rangement necessary in these days of
woman's progression? Ought it not
rather be relegated to the dark ages
along with many other old fashioned
prejudices long since buried beneath the
remains of less advanced civilization?
Americas proud boast is of the self
respecting independence of her daugh-
ters in contrast to the comparative slav-
cry Of her less fortunate sisters across
the water, and the greater liberty ac-
corded to our women has but added to
that self reliant, self respecting quality
innate in every female, while at the same
time it has in no respect lessened that
naturakfefnement that one looks for in
the "homemakers."
The proper chaperon for young girl
is her mother, and should circumstances
forbid her assuming the charge, why,
phow your confidence in your child by
wisely trusting to her self respect to
carry her through the ordinary routine
of social life. OF course late dances and
operas are different matter, as the pro-
prieties demand the presence of older
heads upon such occasions.-W Washing

Miss Emily Faithful, writing in Eng
land Of coeducation in America, says:
Even in 1879 Professor Colt Tyler, in
taking me through the University of
Michigan, observed that while the ques-
ton of coeducation was being discussed
in the eastern states it had practically
been settled in the west, and shall long
remember the splendid address given
there by the president of Cornell on "The
Battlefields Of Science" and his sturdy
maintenance during discussion at Pres
ident Sugee's respecting the effects of
work on women, that it twas far less
disastrous to them than frivolous, aim
less lives" and it was asserted by the
president of the University of Michigan
that "any woman who could endure the
strain of modern dress and modern So
ciety could endure any college course of
instruction ="

In Chicago, where she had successfully
served in the Office of pastor for 10
years, for period of study and travel
in the Holy Land. II is within her
province as pastor to help ordain and ex-
anime candidates for the ministry, to
dedicate churches, to perform the rites
of baptism, burial, communion and
marriage, and in the latter ceremony, be
it said to her credit, the debatable word
is ignored entirely. Only once during
her 13 years pastorate in Chicago was
she absent from her pulpit and then ON
account of illness. On her return Miss
Kollock takes charge of large church

CROWN AND SCEPTER.

Nero, the Roman emperor, kicked his
wife Poppe to death.
1t is now generally understood, says Lon
don Truth, that the much disputed mar
riage Of Princess May of Teck to Prince
George of Wales has been definitely decided
upon.
The king of Sweden paid an unexpected
visit to the Sailors home at Stockholm re-
| Gently, arriving at dinner time He ate
some soup with the inmates and liked it so
well that he took the cook into his own
service.
The pope does not like to read the specu-
lations as to his death at no very distant
date and what will then happen. He took
special care to inform a literary visitor the
other day that he has every prospect of liv.
ing to be 100.
Queen Victoria once had poetic aspira-
tions, and carried them so far as to write

The marriage of the elder brother of the
empress of Austria, Duke Ludwig of Ba-
varia, to the ballet dancer, Antonio Barth,
who has since received the name of Frau
Won Bartolff from the prince regent of
Bavaria, has caused great annoyance to his

that period.

Another Victory For Woman.

Another outpost has been won in the
permission now finally conceded to wom-
en- to practice law in the province of On
tario. Miss Clara Brett Martin is the
first woman in Ontario to enter the sa-
cred inclosure. To Sir Oliver Mowat
much of the credit is due, for had he not
thrown the full weight of his position as
premier and as attorney general head of
the legal profession into the balance, the
right now granted might have been long
withheld.
This victory for that which is equal
and just must hasten the time-not far
distant, we believe, in this province
when the women of Ontario, equally
with men, will cast their votes in every
description of election, as some of their
number now do in municipal elections.

Queen Elizabeth of Roumania.

The condition of Queen Elizabeth of
Roumania, according to European pa
pers, is still so serious that her return to
Bucharest has been postponed indefi-
nitely. She prefers to remain in one of
the castles of her family in Germany
and devote herself to writing poetry. 1t
is said that she declined positively to re-
turn to the Roumanian capital to attend
the ceremonies following the wedding of
the crown prince and the Princess Marie
of Edinburgh. Her majesty is still true
to Mile. Vacaresco, who won the heart
of the young prince two years ago.

Reform In Housekeeping.

A woman who is a Worlds fair COM
missioner believes there will be no better
time nor place for the formation of a
grand union of housekeepers than next
summer at Chicago. Then, probably,
women from every part of the globe will
meet in one city, and the situation in
every land can be discussed. By a
scheme now proposed for such union,
every city desiring membership would
be divided into sections, with an Office
and house of instruction in each Sec
ton. These branches would be auxiliary,

What New Haven theaters want is a
hat censor, and he should be armed with
an AK and timers shears. 1t wouldn't
be bad idea to equip him on extraor-
dinary occasions with a machine that
would grind into pulp half dozen of
those big, faring, sight destroying and
purse wrecking products of the millinery
store at one revolution of the machine
He should take his place right alongside
the ticket taker at the theater doors and
watch closely every woman who entered
and notice the size of her hat. At the
same time he should take particular no.
tice of the check for her seat. If the
hat is of that spread eagle class that
blocks the view of at least three persons
right behind where the woman has her
Aseat and produces one of those blue
curls of mental blasphemy the poets
speak of, he should be sure to make q
note of it in his book. The hat censor
should not leave his post until the last
woman takes her seat.
Then the work of annihilation should
start in while the orchestra is playing
the overture. Somewhere in the interior
of the building spear about 80 feet long
should be in repose until the moment
the orchestra was turned on. That spear
might be part of the censor's equip
ment. A crook should be ON the end Of
the spear. The censor should look at
his notebook containing the record of all
the hats condemned at the theater en-
trance and proceed, from some point in
the wings, to spear for the offensive
headgear. Haven Reporter.

A Suggestion For Ambitious Women.

Why don't women invent employ
ments for themselves? The supremely
rich women are ready enough to hire
things done. Any Paris dry goods firm
OF Importance not only will send, but in
sists upon sending, man to pack the
gowns purchased to be taken to Amer
lea. Oh, such packing! Tissue paper in
the sleeves, through all the loops of rib
bon, under the edges of jackets and
vests, and punched within the waist line
to preserve the roundness of the bodice.
Never a fold is made that is not going
to add to the grace of the hang of the
dress when it is taken out and put on.
And, oh, the time they take, but the way
the gowns unpack! They are as fresh as
If from the hands of the makers. Amer
ican stores have not taken up this Gus
tom yet, but why do not women who
want to earn money learn how to pack
and then advertise to pack trousseaus
and wardrobes? People with really
handsome gowns would feel it more than
money in their pockets to have such
gowns packed without injury. There is
another thing. Who that has type
writer would not gladly pay for having
the machine cleaned every week? Yet
no one who wants money has thought of
that.
The same way about cleansing gloves.
Every one knows they can be cleansed
at home, but it is too much trouble, so
they are sent to the cleaners. There is
another chance. Why not combine them
Ill A I 7 IL
without injury, gloves cleansed, type
writers cleaned, flowers and plants wa
tered, clocks wound magazine and book
leaves cut, jewelry cleaned, ETC." The
woman who would do all these things
that no household ever seems to be able
to get done, would make money at it
and not have hard time either.-New

Records of Progress Made by Woman In
Societies and Individually-Interesti
Personal Mention-Dress Reform and So
cial Innovations.
Some interesting statistics were pre-
sented at the recent annual meeting of
the Maine Woman Suffrage association
in the address of its president. Inquiries
were sent to the collector of taxes in
each of the 500 towns in Maine, asking
him how many women in his town were
taxpayers and the amountfor which they
were assessed, and replies have already
been received from nearly one-half,
showing that 1855 women in the towns
reported pay taxes on property valued
at $4,627, ,457. Each collector was also
asked if he knew any reason why these
women should not have the privilege of
voting at municipal elections.
Of the 200 heard from, 14e answered
no, and only II answered yes, while 43
were noncommittal. The president held
that this showed a growth of sentiment
in favor of woman suffrage, and she said
that members of every political party
had told her that "they had ceased to
see any reason why women should not
vote and also hold Office, and that they
believed the time near when these rights
would be acknowledged by the voting
people through their legislatures.
This Maine canvass is certainly en-
couraging to the cause as regards the at
titude of the men. Itwould be interest
ing to have another canvass as to the
feeling of the women themselves. Ex-
perience has shown that Charles Sumner
was right when he declared quarter of
century ago that "woman suffrage was
obviously one of the great questions of
the future and would be eventually de-
cided by the wish of woman herself"
There are very few journals of any
standing in the country which do not
now take the view often expressed in
these columns and well stated in these
remarks by the Burlington (Vt.) Free
Press
"The sensible thing for the promoters
of this cause is to start an educational
campaign among the women themselves.
When majority of the women of this
country are persuaded to actively seek
the right of suffrage, it will not be long
denied them, but until that time comes
woman suffrage will not be a strictly
practical question. New York Post.

A Seasonable Warming.

Do not allow yourself to feel chilly"
1t may indicate circumstance or phys
ical condition, either of which can be
modified by prompt attention. If you are
chilly from draft, move away from it,
stop it off or put on more clothes. If the
coldness arises from physical condi-
ton, you are probably taking cold. Heat
a brick and sit with your feet upon it
until you are heated through. This will
do much to oprevent cold taking hold of
you.-Philadelphia Times.
