ent features Of a girl students life IN
Paris. To begin with, she regards a resi-
dence in Paris as Of incalculable value to
pupil not because of a dearth Of COM
petent instructors in America, but for
reason of advantages unequaled in this
country, for artistic association and op-
pOrtunities of hearing and seeing repeated
ly representations of operas with which
she is endeavoring to familarize herself.
Then, too, being thrown upon ones own
resources enables a girl to acquire con-
fidence. independence and individuality. a
hampered by traitorous doubts of possible
failure that ones relatives are not always
the last to suggest.
The selection Of an instructor should be
more carefully considered. There are as
many charlatans in the musical profession
as in any other, and teachers of world
wide reputation in some instances derive
their celebrity from their business sagacity
more than their ability to impart instruc-
ton. In one notable instance a woman
teacher of Paris is credited with spending
ten thousand year for advertising pur-
poses.
Our fair little compatriot thinks Ameri-
cans should at once rid themselves Of the
idea that student life IN Paris is fraucht
with any more personal or moral danger
than a residence in this city. She thinks
her American sisters are especially able to
carry themselves safely and correctly
through any vicvisSitudes likely 10 occur,
and while a Frenchman regards every pet
ticoated creature as a target for his gall
lantries the tendency arises mainly from
his excessively ardent and chivalric dispo-
couragingly received, he abandons the at
task with spirit undampened and di-
reefs his attention toward other attractive
objects with amusing vivacity and untir-
ing activity.
In Miss Reds opinion the American girl
going to Paris for musical study should be
in possession of an income Of at least 81 800
a year. She computes the cost Of living at
about 200 francs a month, SO or S12 a
week, and regards the balance as a moder-
ate allowance for lessons that ii is i'm
portant to supplement with frequent at
tendance at the opera and other musical
entertainments and incidental expenses
For some other branches of study perhaps
II would be possible to live upon a smaller
amount. but for a singer IL is OF para
mount Importance that she should maintain
a good physical condition and a tranquil
state of mind, unburdened by anxiety or
the consideration of domestic detail. To
avoid the latter a residence in good pen
sion is advocated as superior to home
keeping in an apartment. In the latter the
burden of domestic responsibility will gen.
orally be borne by the student, even II ac-
companied by her mother, whose willing
ness to assume the management is gener-
ally hampered by her ignorance Of the Lam
guage. This guidance necessitates referring
all the affairs of the household to the stu
dent, who speaks more f1uently and is
more generally conversant with the pre-
vailing customs of daily life

For Young Mothers.

A lady recently returned from a long
residence in England brings with her a
nursery card" which might well be in
troduced into this country. 1t is about
three feet long by two wide, printed like
a wall map and is intended to hang in
the nursery. At the top of the card is
a blank space in which is written the
name and address of the nearest doctor
or the one you would wish to have called
in case Of an accident Then follows
list OF accidents most common with
children and the remedies to be applied
bites. broken limbs, bruises and sprains,
burns. commissions, Group, cuts, drown
ing, fainting, falls, fits, nose bleeding,
pOisons, scalds, stings. substances in the
eyes, ears, nose, swallowing coins, but
tons, ETC. wounds. Accompanying this
card. which is headed what to do and
how to do it, is a small box containing
the remedies. some court plaster, alb
sorbent cotton and lint.
The idea is admirable. for when the
mother is at home she is frequently so
frightened by an accident that her wits
desert her. and she is as helpless as the
most ignorant of servants. Il have kept
this nursery card hanging on my nursery
door for four years. said the owner,
and i am beginning to believe 1t Is
preventive of accidents. One thing L nave
been careful to observe, and that is not
to allow the arnica or the camphor TO be
taken out Of the box except for an acct
dent"

NEBUCHADNEzzAR's IMITATOR.
A California wild Boy Who Eats
Grass and Lives Like an Animal.

The town Of Livermore has a wild boy
that eats grass and lives on roots ana
herbs and does all sorts of strange Things,
according to an account in the San Fran
cisco Examiner.
For years this wild boy has lived in his
fathers pastures and has been as con-
tented as any ordinary mortal would be IN
a well furnished and comfortable home.
The unfortunate boy has name and home,
but he does not regard either as much as
any rational being would. He prefers 70
frisk around his fathers grain fields and
chase the frightened children down the
country roads.
John Worth is the wild boys name, and
he is about fifteen years old. His father is
Harrison Worth, who lives on small tract
of land few miles out of Livermore The
boy has been a terror to the neighborS for
q long time Ever since his birth he has
been an imbecile, and all attempts to teach
him even the rudiments of understanding
have been but dismal failures.
The wild boy knows absolutely moth
ing, and is as much at home out in the
open fields as he is at his fathers hearth
slice recently ne mas been terrorlzlng the
neighbors of the Worth ranch to such an
extent that he was today arrested on COM
plant of Farmer Clark, who considers him
investigated by the lunacy commission this
afternoon. but the doctors decided that the
green fields and the hills that surround
him than an insane asylum would be, so
he was sent home on the afternoon train
in custody Of his father. who has promised
10 take better care of him in the future.
The boys father had been in the habit
of keeping his son at home by tying him TO
a stake just as the cattle are treated, and
he never makes any attempt to escape. The
rope around his ankle has always been suf-
ficient to keep him within bounds, and
while the wild boy will tug at his rope Just
as any dumb brute would do he has never
had the intelligence to unite the fastening.
When united and turned out in the
pasture with the cattle the boy affects all
of their traits. He jumps about in the
field like friskly lamb, drinks water out
Of the creek, and eats grass. He developed
his liking for grass and roots several years
ago and seems to prefer such food TO a
carefully prepared meal in his father
dining-room.
The boys parents are very poor and We're
unable to do anything to assist the unfor-
tunate lad, so they allowed him to grow
up in the green fields with the live stock.
BY reason or his peculiarlties the boy has
been called the wild boy of LivermOre for
the last ten years, and the little children
have the most abject fear OF him. When
loose he will climb fences and chase them
down the road, but he has never been
known to harm any of them. When he
catches them he looks them over curiousy
and seems to regard them with simple in
terest.

MRS. HELEN NJ. COUGAR.
A Woman of Great Force of Charac-
ter and an Eloquent Speaker.

The principle of the 'home vote"
against the reckless and irresponsible
mob finds a brilliant advocate in Mrs.
Helen NJ. Cougar of Lafayette, Ind,
whose powers of oratory have for some
years been enlisted on the side of wom-
ans suffrage. Mrs. Cougar was born
in Litchfield. Mich, nearly fifty years
ago. Her devotion to the right was in
tense and unf1inching even in her youth
and united with originality, energy, in
tellectual keenness and self-reliance,
graced by ready wit and bouyancy of
spirits, has made her a power in the ros-
trum and in the councils of her party.
A conspicuous trait in her character is
firmness Of principle as against COM
promise for the sake of expediency. Con-
servatism, intrigue and cowardice have
been the especial targets of her inspired
and burning words.
Mrs. Cougars style as a speaker is
dignified, though free and impassioned,
and without oratorical display or affec-
tation. She talks offhand without manu-
script or notes. Her special line is the
legal phases of political reform. She has
a grasp of law and statistics and is the
wife of a lawyer of ability, whose adj

A MUSICAL EDUCATION.
MISS MARGARET REID ON STUDENT
LIFE IN PARIS.

One morning in February, 1892, the young
girl who forms the subject of this sketch
awoke to find herself upon the threshold
of a brilliant musical career. The New
York newspapers chronicled the unequivO-
cal success of Margaret Reid as Ophelia
in Thomas opera OF Hamlet" and a
fashionable audience at the Metropolitan
opera house, disappointed by the illness OF
the prima donna announced for the last
nights performance, had paid enthusiastic
tribute to the fair young debutante, who,
with the courage and confidence born OF
youth and ambition, had undertaken to
fill the missing artists place at twenty
four hours notice. Seidl engaged the little
songstress for series of concerts. but in
the early spring she fitted away from her
native shore among the flock Of foreign
song birds that had made the winter melo-
dious, determined to resume her studies.
In personal appearance Margaret Reid is
a slender girl of rather less than medium
height, well proportioned, and carrying her
self with graceful ease and dignity. She is
of the brunette type, with soft, dark, clus-
tering curls. and large brown eyes light
ing up a rather pale oval face. She con-
veys the idea of gentleness and sentiment,
but there is a certain strength about the
pose and the strength of determination,
which, united TO her melOdiOus voice and
artistic temperament. will help her onward
10 her destined place in the foremost rank
OF American songstresses.
Affairs of a personal nature have re-
called Margaret Reid to this country tenn
porarily, and installed for few weeks in
a tiny suit of apartments on Fifty-seventh
street the little songstress receives a few
of her most intimate friends and chats
Pleasantly and Interestingly upon the sail
