AN AMERICAN PRODUCT.

George w. Bungay, in an article
written just before our hundredth an
niversary as nation, said: "Imag-
inc a rumseller making speech in
this style to recommend his work of
degradation and death This
thing you see here, ladies and gentle
men, is the product of American
skill and industry. He was once a
mani may say gentleman. He
stood erect, moved with jubilant
feet, had a countenance beaming
with intelligence, mind OF vast
power and character without re-
proach. He was a loving child, a
loval husband, a splendid citizen,
before he came into my laboratory
| have worked him over. | have
touched his clear eye with crimson
and made his nose red and irregular
as a lump of coral. | embroidered
his cheeks with rum buds and brandy
blossoms. | cracked his voice and
crooked his form. | stained his
character and shattered his mind
Look, ladies and gentlemen, at this
miracle of. mechanism A fit DINA
mia a potu is coming on. His form
seems like the embodiment of gull
ty conscience every vein is viper
every artery an adder; each hair is a
scorpion; his blood is liquid fire. No
matter what a mans religious belief
is. he believes in hell when he has the
delirium tremens. He sees the dew
lis. Don't 60 too near him, dear
good friends. A lighted cigar IN
Contact with his breath might re-
suit in spontaneous combustion
You ask me why | do this kind o.
work? Because it pays. l do ii
according to law. Men go to the
legislature to protect me in my IL
censed trade. 1t does not require
much brains nor much money to &c
this work.
"'Why, ladies and gentlemen, yot
can see plenty of the specimens OF m!
work and the work OF men OF m.
calling in the poor-houses and PR
sons and mad-houses all over tn
land

N PAPER-MAKING WASPS.

With only the tools given them by
nature the inhabitants of the insect
world mould and manufacture
homes for themselves and families
and safe storehouses for their food.
often their workmanship is wonder
July beautiful and exact. Accord
ing to naturalists, there are about
700 species of wasps, each species IN
ITS form, habits and architecture fol-

4 NECESSITY TO COMPLETENESS

The women of this country who
have had in their households as
servants girls educated in the schools
OF Norway, Sweden, or Germany,
have, if they take any interest in
their servants, been impressed with
the much wider knowledge of those
girls as compared with servants Of
other nationalities. They use the
needle in an almost expert manner.
Every kind of sewing is familiar to
them; they knit, embroider, and
crochet in their leisure time, and, as
rule, are much heater in apparel
and surroundings than other nation
alities in similar employment.
The secret is that sewing is taught
in every grade of the schools of these
countries. The educational exhibits
from these countries at the Worlds
Fair are impressive because of the
beautiful needlework exhibited. The
articles shown from grades where
the average age was six years
compare favorably with those from
our own schools exhibited as the
work OF girls of ten, twelve, and
even fourteen.
The freedom given to women in
the classes below those of absolute
wealth by a knowledge Of the use of
needle, scissors, and patterns, only
those who have been opposed by the
awful waste because Of ignorance
can appreciate.
More can be done while girl is
under fourteen to make her an expert
with the needle unless she is taught
under consecutive system-a
method which passes naturally from
one step to the next. The old sys-
tenn of beginning on d garment is not
scientific or a progressive method,
and is being dropped by all sewing,
schools that are up to the times
The stitches must be learned on
small pieces of cloth, and the gar
ment when made be the work Of the
pupil from its first taking shape
that is, the pupils must learn how tc
cut the garment, how to use g
pattern, how to use material eco
nomically. This is the system thai
makes intelligent needlewomen.
Every intelligent woman knows
the advantage it gives her to have
practical knowledge of every depart
ment of labor connected with he
home and family it makes her NOR
patient with failures; it enables he
to understand the cause of failures
II the woman who can pay for ser
vice finds practical knowledge al
advantage, how much more tn
woman who will have to suppl,
skill as we'll as money in the prope
execution of her household labor
Women in this country should de
mand the introduction of manua
training in our public schools. NJ
girl is equipped for her position as
woman unless she possesses NOR
than a theoretical knowledge as t.
the execution of all work connected
with her household. With the poor
ignorance opens the door to suffer
lng, discomfort, and degradation
With the rich, ignorance opens tn
door to cheating, to deceit, t
