clothing should be as warm and light as
possible. Young mothers are very apt
to incase their little ones like mummies,

them so unwieldy that they can hardly
walk, much less romp and play.

Woman Suffrage Abroad.

Millions Of intelligent women in the
United States will be interested in the
woman's suffrage movement that is now
taking place in England and in France.
In London woman's suffrage and wom-
ans work are questions that are being
pushed to the front, and it is reported
that woman's suffrage bill will shortly
be introduced into the house of COM
mons. In fact it is the intention OF Wis
count Wolmer, who is Liberal Union
ist and member for the west division of
Edinburgh, to do so, and it is thought
that tho bill will receive 100 votes from
Conservative and Liberal members.
1t is true that Mr.. James Stuart, who
who is member of parliament and who
presided at the Woman's Suffrage soci-
ETY., which met in London lately, took a
wet blanket view of the prospect and did
not hold forth much hope-of the bill be-
ing passed. He pointed out that since
the exclusion Of the Right Hon. James
Stansfeld from the ministry there was
actually no one in the Liberal govern
ment who could be relied upon to advo-
cate the cause of woman's suffrage as it
ought to be advocated; that there was no
member of the party who could abso-
lutely be depended upon. He might
have added that since the death of John
Stuart Mill no one has arisen in Great
Britain capable of espousing the cause
with such invincible logic and stirring
eloquence as that remarkable thinker.
About the very same time when this
question is being urged in London the
advocates of woman's rights in Paris
have been represented by an association
known as la Solidarite des Femmes."
This association intends to petition the
chamber of deputies to so amend the
bill of arbitration now under discussion
that in the same question relating to
women women shall be the arbitrators.
This is going a great way in the direc-
ton of giving to women those privileges
for which highly intelligent proportion
Of their sex has long been bathing

A woman end Her Money.

Hero is short story from French

won prize Of 100000 francs in connec-
ton with the city Of Paris loan in 1883.
she thought she was the happiest woman
in the world. Subsequent events have
led her to modify this view to some de
gree. To begin with, she had husband
who had deserted her, and who, directly
he heard of the strange turn of fortunes
wheel, tried to avail himself of the de-
Gciencies of French law, which knows
no married women's property act, to OBJ
tain the sum for his own sole and exclu-
Bive benefit. Then another claimant
turned up in the person of former en-
ployer of Nine. Boudin, N. Doggy.
The winning certificate, hesaid, belonged
in reality to him. He had bought one,
ne said, for her, but it was another one,
and his wife had handed her the wrong
document.
The woman's husband having died, his
heirs agreed to accept one-half the prizs.
while NJ. Dogny agreed TO compromise
his claim for 10000 francs. This left
10000 francs for Nine. Boudin, with IN
terest, for the litigation had gone on for
years. Even now, however, the law
courts have not done with the matter,
for M. Dogny has just been arrested on
a charge of making fraudulent claim,
while lawyer named Mougin is being
prosecuted for embezzling $1,000 francs
OF the share belonging to the heirs of
Nine. Boudin's husband.

1t is interesting to note how the jokes

other generation. Years ago John Leech
drew famous picture in Punch repre-
senting matronly feminine Marlbor-

Sure enough she is here. Her name is
Lady Ieene Hastings, and she is mistress
Of the Huntingdon Harriers. Instead of
being the forbidding grim horsewoman
of John Leech's picture, this feminine

Hints About Dress.
The thrilling story of the deadly peril
of the unfortunate German steamship,
the Spree, has been brought here in all
its awful details by the passengers who
arrived on the Etruria within the week.
It will be remembered how, after the
shaft of the great liner broke. and the
stern compartments filed with water,
the ship laid for two days rolling in the
trough of the sea IN momentary danger of
sinking. Even after being taken in tow
by the Huron the danger was by no
means averted. It was the first hours of
awful peril of instant death that most
tried the heroism of the passengers, and
in that terrible period and the suhse-
quent long suspense the women dis
played more fortitude than the men.
This is the unanimous testimony of those
who have arrived safely, as given in the
papers.
One of the statements runs as follows:
"Of the many hundred people on board
expecting the ship to sink every mo-
ment there were only few who lost
their heads or showed cowardice, and OF
these few the majority, shame to say,
were men. These few showed all the
weaknesses Of towards. They wept and
cursed and made rush for life pre-
servers. They held on to those which
they secured and even slept on them"
Rev. Dwight L. Moody says:
'sIt is absolutely true that the women
were cal1ner and Drawer than many of
the male passengers" !"
Mrs. Blanche Moeller corroborates
these statements. She says:
When the lfeboats and RATS were
being made ready the women demon
strated more courage than the men.
Many of the men, as soon as the crash
came, seized the nearest life preserver
and thought only Of their own deliver
ance. They also clung to them during
the entire two days of trial and carried
them wherever they walked. The
women, on the other hand, in many
cases walked calmly around the boat
without a life preserver, and when the
boat began to sink they made it known
that they thought more of the welfare of
others than they did of Themselves

The latest singer enshrined in Paris
favor is Marie Delna, twenty-one years
old. She was engaged to wait on table
in provincial restaurant, and often be-
guiled the tedium Of dishwashing by
singing. One afternoon an impulsive
diner cast aside bis knife and fork, and
rushing into the kitchen embraced the
young woman enthusiastically. The
dishwasher dropped song and plates, and
seizing the strangers beard cuffed him
soundly. His ardor somewhat damp
ened by this reception, the gentleman
explained that there was a fortune in
her voice. Thereupon Marie dried her
hands and signed contract with him.
The enthusiast took her to Paris, placed
her under good training and has recent

Taxation without Representation.

1t will not be forgotten by those who
are trying to change the constitution of
New York by a legislative measure of
justice to women that some idea of the
amount of unrepresented taxation may
be gained from the "List of American
Millionaires," published this year in tho
New York Tribune, and also in PAM
phlet form, carefully corrected.
The number of millionaires in New
York city, whose names are given, is
1,103. OF these 161 are women. This
means much less than $1s1 900 900 of
taxation without representation, for
many of these women are owners Of
many millions. One is mentioned as
having inherited $40,000,000 from her
husband. Mrs. Hetty Green is another,
who inherited millions from her father,
millions from her aunt, and who has in
creased her millions enormously by iu-
dicious investments and by the strictest
economic methods. No one can guess
the number Of her millions. 1t would
be very safe to say that $500, 200, 900 of
properly is owned in New York city by
women, who are taxed for this enormous
sum every year, and who are totally un-
represented among those who have the
spending of these taxes-taxes of which
tho most ignorant foreigner and the most
ignorant native may have the disposal.
This estimate has been very carefully
made and carefully revised and correct
ed for another purpose, but it might
serve as an object lesson for those who
think that because many women have
husbands and fathers and brothers who
look after their interests there is no
need for women iaoshave the ballot-for-
getting that in thisrepublic every citizen
should have equal rights with every
other citizen, ana that no one should be
deprived Of those rights except for in
fancy, idiocy, iHsaEiity, inbecility or
criminal conduct--Sarsh Freeman in
Woinan's journal.
