The Author of I'VE Two"

Edna Lyall is now pale and worn with
an illness that has quite suspended any
literary work since the publication of ga
Hardy Norseman," writes Frederick Dol
man in an interesting sketch of the home
life and personality of Ada Ellen Bayley
1.-THE eyes have lost little of their luster
and the checks the color they once pos
sessed. The slight form is somewhat
thinner, and the hand that clasps yours
instinctiyely tells of much suffering.
But bright smile is coupled with the
assurance of convalescence, and the
voice, at first weak and low, gathers in
is on some stirring topic. Like Char
lotte Bronte's heroine, Ada Ellen Bay
ley the pseudonym, you see, is only a
transposition of some of the letters in her
baptismal name) has no beauty beyond
that intellectual beauty to which Shelley
wrote his well known hymn.
1.-The face is small and of uneven forma-
ton, the broad forehead having sug-
gestion of the masculine that is secuted
by the sweet and sympathetic expression
Of the eyes. The brown hair would be
beautiful were it not cut short and ar
ranged with an almost severe simplicity.
She usually dresses in a close fitting gar
ment of some plain material. Edna Lyall
owes really all her charm to her sympa
thetic presence, if l may be pardoned
the expression, her spiritual earnestness
and tender feeling. Pity is one of her
predominant qualities; there always
seems to be an undercurrent of sadness
in her character at the misery and woe
in the world around her"

A Rock Club in Chicago.

One of the latest, if not the latest,
yvo1nen's clubs formed is in Chicago. 1t
is called the Foreign Book club, and
meets fortnightly at members houses
for luncheon and discussion of some fresh
foreign publication. In turn the mem
bers select the book to be discussed, keep
ING its identity from the rest of the club,
save the president. This committee of
one reads extracts, and the club discusses
extempore.
This is perhaps the nearest approach
IN the sssocial club" which American
women have got. English women smile
at and do not quite understand our fond
ness for these clubs of ours, organized for
mutual improvement or for the avowed
nnrpose of helping to bear the burdens
and lessen the ills Of life. AT those OF
the first sort, days of preparation crys-
tal1ize into more or less elaborate trea-
tises ut the appointed time, with notes
for argument, debate, and every phase
of consideration. At those of the other
sort. the great problem of living is studied
with equal exhaustiveness OF preparation
and effort. A club for pure social enjoy
ment. without premeditated effort, with
ont system, without committees, with
ont routine, without anything but the
companionship of congenial minds-such
a one does not much appeal to the Ameri-
can woman. The Chicago club lunches
and discusses almost without formality
and practically without preparation, and
may be a pioneer OF a more extended
movement in the way of such coteries
rather than our classes of sometimes aD-

Southern Women in Libraries.

A recent letter in the Arkansas Won
ans Chronicle points out that in nearly
every southern state woman is state Ii
brarian. The legislature of Mississippi
has elected woman to that position for
the past twenty years. In Kentucky
and Tennessee, for almost as many years,
women have held the Office at handsome
salaries. The secretary of state of Ten
nessee, in whose Office the librarian
works, says in private letter, ''Since we
have had women in the Office they have
not only given satisfaction in the work,
but have rendered the Office where the
work is done far more comfortable and
attractive" South Carolina pays its Ii
brarian, a woman, So, 100 year. West
Virginia has Il woman as assistant Gus
todian of all public buildings, property,
etc., and in that capacity she has charge
Of the state library.

Mrs. stoves Biography.

Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stoweis reported
to pc critically i'll. Her biography will
appear shortly from the pen Of noted
writer. 1t will contain love letter
from the late Professor Stowe to his wife,
whom he adored as an angel Here is a
quotation: There is no woman like you
in this wide world. Who else has SO
much talent with so little conceit; SO
much reputation with so little affecta
ton; so much literature with SO little
nonsense; so much enterprise with so
little extravaganza; SO much tongue with
so little scold; so much sweetness with
30 little softness; so much Of so many
things and so little of so many things?'
All husbands who wish to win the ever
lasting gratitude Of their wives should
write such letters they have to write aft
er this fashion.-New York Advertiser.

Glossy Hair and Nightcaps.

1t is rumored that glossy hair is to be-
come the fashion, and that the sheeny
locks seen upon the heads of our grand
mothers are coming in again with the
adoption of silk nightcaps. These caps,
it is claimed, absorb the perspiration that
weakens the roots Of the hair, and pro-
tect the head from drafts and chills that
make the hair come out. The cap is,
however, by no means the only agent in
making the hair soft and shining. Con-
slant brushing has quite as much to do
with it. as well as keeping the scalp clean
by an occasional washing with CASTLE
soap and soft water or the white of an
egg.
One of the best hair tonics is made
from rum and quinine. The object of
brushing the hair is not only to stimulate
the scalp and keep it free from dandruff,
but to keep it free from every particle of
dust its entire length. For the latter
purpose brush with closely set bristles
is necessary. York Post.

A vexed Question of Calls.

The vexed question of the cabinet la
dies calling upon the senator's wives is
still of interest. For years the matter
was discussed with far more feeling than
any outsider would think the subject
merited At last several years ago a
settlement was finally reached, the de-
cision being in favor of the senator's
wives, upon whom the ladies of the cab
met have since made the first calls each
winter.
The dissatisfaction on this score felt
by the cabinet ladies has not died out
with time They urge with good reason
that as the law of presidential success
sion passed during the last administra-
ton descends through the cabinet, the
senator's wives should recognize this by
making the first calls.-Kate Fields

Dress Reform and Other Topics.

The national council of women in ses-
sion in Chicago agitated the accomplish
ment of three reforms-divorce, equal
wages for men and women doing the
same work and more sensible street
dress for women. The two first men
toned reforms, although of greater inn
portance than the last, were completely
overshadowed by the animated interest
in the less profound and serious subject.
The chief feature Of the new costume
is that its skirt reaches only midway be-
tween the knee and the top of the shoe.
The public will be spared the exhibition
of this advanced garb until the fair
opens. Mrs. Potter Palmer has granted
the council space on the ground for the
members to appear in the new skirt and
to demonstrate its superiority over the
more modest dress of conventionality.

nIuffs Hung by Gold Chains.

The latest fancy is the elegant one of
suspending our muffs about our necks
with the long gold chains with which
our grandmothers, and our grandfathers,
too, used to attach their watches. Of
course it is only the wise woman who
has treasured up these discarded chains
instead of cutting them into short
lengths or exchanging them at the jew
sler's for more modern trinkets. The
muffs will naturally be large in size to
appear old world, too, and the whim has
the merit of utility to recommend it to
favor, for it is a comfortable and con-
venient way of wearing the muff, partic-
ularly to the careless women who are
always leaving theirs in shops and thea

The Y Ost
WRITING MACHINE.

Years ago, Mrs. Yost built a type
writer, the Remington No. , and
Caligraph which were good enough
then. But the family has increased
by thousands. Other folks have
hltched on extensions to hold 'em.
But it's the same old typewriter,
same ribbon, same scales, same
rickety print. We want something
modern, and we get it in the New
IosT, which Uses superior To the
difficulties of any ribbon machine
The ribbon hlurs print, wears fall
of holes, clogs type, takes power to
pull 1t along, weakens manifolding
and costs IS or $40 a year. Our
ink pad outlasts twenty ribbons.
Can be changed in ten seconds, and
costs less than 81 year. And as
to permanent alignment the YosI
is the only machine which accom-
plishes this much desired feat.
