She Finished the College Course.

Dr. Susan Edison, who was one of Gar
fields physicians, celebrated her seven
tieth birthday recently. She was grad
uated in 1854 from the Cleveland Home
opathic Medical college. The college,
which would not sell scholarships to
women, was owing something on the
construction of its new building which
it could not pay, and the creditor insist
ed on having a scholarship before he
turned over the keys of the building.
This scholarship he sold to Miss Edison,
who became thereby entitled to enter.
They held faculty meeting over her
and decided that she could not attend
the next year, but she informed them
that she would be there. "Well, it will
not be very pleasant for you," said the
president. THAT is your lookout" said
Miss Edison. "If the men who come
here to study medicine can't treat a
woman decently here, they are not fit to
treat them elsewhere, but if live shall
be here" Miss Edison knew that she
had the law on her side, having the
scholarship. The rumor that she was to
be excluded kept back q number of wom-
en- who were desiring to enter, but when
the authorities found she could not be
scared away they admitted few others
who applied later.-Women'sT Tribune.

To wear skirt that is stiff with crino-

dred styles inmodest, donot adopt them;
but, for goodness sake, if you do adopt
them, do not spoil them. The hip line in

Dressing tho Hair.

Dressing the hair high always makes
woman look older, but lowering it to the
back of the head brings her five to ten
years, according to different authorities,
nearer to girlhood. Dark hair adapts it
self we'll to the turn back style, for it
makes at once framework for the face.
But unless one has very perfect fore
head one looks better in bangs and side
curls If the hair is blond. 1t is an era
for those whose locks are not very abun-
dant, for fashion says that each individ-
ual hair must be curled, no matter how
it is to be worn, so a very little hair can
be made to go a great ways.-Exchange.

Royal Women In Spain.

The beautiful Queen Amelia of Portu-
gal, who has been called to Seville by
the serious illness of her grandmother,
the Duchess Of Montpensier, appears to
have turned the Spaniards' heads When
ever the queen appears in the streets, she
is followed by a big crowd of men who

Twice upon ono day, it is stated, An
aalusian gallants threw their rich cloaks
epon the muddy ground to save the
royal shoes from being soiled, in studied
or unconscious imitation of Sir Walter
Raleigh and Queen Elizabeth. That the
royal beauty thoroughly enjoys her
daily triumph is beyond doubt. She
walks about the streets attended by only
one lady of her suite, which in itself il

quette of Spanish and Portuguese courts,
and she bows and smiles i'll acknowledg-
ment of the most fantastic compliments,
whether uttered by peer or peasant, for
the daily crowds compose men In all
ranks Of life.
II is explained that the homage paid to
Queen Amelia is merely characteristic
of Andalusia and has nothing offensive
about it, The explanation can scarcely
be satisfactory to the Queen Regent

Efrect of the Kansas Elections.

Accounts of the recent municipal cleo
tions throughout Kansas have been fol-
lowed with interest by women from
Maine to Mexico. For the first time in
history women have demonstrated their
wish to exercise freely the highest privi-
lege of citizenship. They visited the
polls in numbers nearly equal to the
men, voted independently and effectively
and clearly established their determine
ton to be recognized as important polit-
ical factors in their several neighbor-
hoods. OF course the conservative south
and east hold somewhat different views
from the more literally advanced west.
The body of women in this part of the
country rather fear and despise radical
movements.
But one thing is certain, deep down in
her heart every daughter Of Eve secret
ly rejoiced over the social results of the
experiment. No matter what her con-
victions might be, it CALLED her pride to
hear men gibe at the hysterical exhibi-
tions of imaginary women at the polls.
Hair pulling, cat scratching voters were
creatures of their fancy. Therefore, if
the quiet, intelligent use Of the feminine
franchise in Kansas has no other effect,
it has been useful in proving the discreet
dignity of the American woman under
any and all ircumstances.-Amer
