DON'T Dnlinh Your NailA.

If you want to be quite up to date
don't polish your finger nails any more
1t isn't considered good style to have
them shine as though they had just beel
Tipped in the butter. And leave it to
nature to tint them, which she will do
quite sufficiently if you have any good,
healthy blood in your veins. The pink
salves and powder and the polishing are
meretricious and in bad taste, and were
invented by the manicurcs to make pco-
pie believe they were getting something
for their money when they sat for an
hour letting u young woman fuss over
their hands and do what they could just

WOMAN'S WORLD.
LUCY STONES NAME ON THE LIST or
INDUSTRIOUS AMERICANS.

Fields In which Women Are Rapidly
Pushing rorw understandable sugges-
sions For Observation-Disclosures Per
sonsis About Women.
This distinguished woman died at Bos-
ton on Wednesday Mt the ago Of IS years.
As n pioneer in the movement for the
legal and political elevation Of women
she had lived through ridicule, obloquy
and even persecution, until at last she
was honored and reverenced as the hero
inc Of a great, benefcent and actually &C.
complished revolution.
The young people Of this generation
cannot properly appreciate the persis-
tent courage displayed by Lucy Stone
and her sister women's rights agitators
when they started out in that movement
40 years ago. All the prejudices OF 30
ciety were against them. They were
looked upon IA monsters, as women who
had unsexcd themselves and Ms enemies
Of every conservative social institution.
They were jecred, hooted, mobbcd and
insulted. Lucy Stone was n name OF de-
rision. She was despised and objurgated.
The sight Of q woman as a speaker on o
public platform or as an officer Of a pub
lie meeting provoked establishment and
contempt. At this time, when every
right advocated by Lucy Stone is granted
to women and is exercised by them as o
matter Of course. such unreasonable and
tuinultuous opposition ut u period so re-
cent seems inconceivable.
Complete woman suffrage exists in only
the two states Of Kansas and Wyoming,
but In % states Of the Union some de-
gree Of woman suffrage is allowed, and
in all Of them women can have every po-
litical privilege on an entire equality
with men whenever they ask for it, and
they will in no wise suffer either in mas
culine reverence and admiration or in
public estimation because they make the
demand. Every legal right sought by
Lucy Stone has been granted to women.
They are even treated with partiality by
the laws, as compared with men. Their
individuality is respected. 1t is not lost
in marriage.
Every avenue Of activity is open 10
them, and they a pursue it without re-
proach or cri,icism-without even at
tracing attention because Of their limo
walton. They are as free as men to carr
their living in any lawful way they
please. They are not declared by any
social prejudice simply because they are
women from following any honorable
career, public or private, which they
may desire. They are debarred only by
the natural physical limitations which
shut them out from ~employments re-
quiring great strength and endurance.

IMPROVING SPARE MOMENTS.
nov the Chnutauqua Literary and soisn-
tihc Circle Encourages
Good Reading.

As the season of long winter even
ings approaches it is natural to think
how they are to be spent pleasantly
and proftably. The Chautauaua Lit
erary and Scientific Circle is an organ
ization of people who have united in
systematic way to read good books.
ihe plan as now evolved includes a
iour.years course of home reading.
The histories of Greece, Rome, England
and America are the basis, together
with which various scientific and other
studies are taken up. At present the
books are specially prepared so as to
be acceptable TO people Of all ages, oc-
eupations and positions in life. They
are all interesting as well as instruct
i've. Persons of the same locality who
read the course usually organize a
local circle, so-ealled, and in the
meetings that are held discuss the mat
ter that is being read and introduce a
varied programme which adds materi-
ally to the attractiyeness of the course.
The readings for the coming season
(which opens October lst) are es-
peeially fascinating, including as they
do the history and literature of that
marvellous people, the ancient Romans.
Among the other interesting themes
are medieval art and literature and po-
litical economy, the latter being taken
from very entertaining book by the
well.known writer, Richard t. Ely.
Our readers will do well to seriously
consider the advisability of improving
their spare time this fall and winter
by reading this course No one need
hesitate because Of lack of education,
as it is especially advantageous for
people who have had few opportuni-
ties for book learning. By using forty
five minutes a day in this way one
may in the course of four years acquire
fair education.
Those reading the course in Colo
RADIO have organized a state association,
from any of whose officers information
may be obtained, although the secre-
tary, Mr.. f. NJ. Priestley of University
Park, is specially charged with the
duties of correspondence. The presi-
dent is Rev. b. T. Vincent of Denver,
and the following are the vice presi-
