INDECENT women and homeless children

The Woman's Journal has been figur-
ing the thing out and finds that If our
sex had its full share of postmasterships
according to the female population there
would be no less than $4,000 postmis-
tresses. We have not more than one
eighth of our quota, however.
Years ago pious old lady in England
left a sum ef money from whose income
prize of $500 should be awarded every
year to the person that should write the
best treatise illustrative of the wisdom
and beneficence of the Almighty in any
department of science" This year the
prize has been won by Miss Agnes
Clerke, England's most learned woman
astronomer Miss Clerke is a young wo-
man who lives at South Kensington
very quietly and studies the stars. She
had no school training in astronomy,
but studied privately, yet she has writ
ten an able paper on the Chemistry of
the Stars" and has published a book,
popular History of Astronomy In the
Nineteenth Century" that has passed
through three editions. Il have loved
the stars from my earliest years." she
says.
Mrs. Logan says-and womanlike she
prefaces her remarks with Il feel'-'I
feel that the greatest opportunities
women have ever had to advance them
selves OF their interest have been only
half improved because of envy, jealousy
and personal ambition" Yes, but the
same is exactly as true of men. Both
sexes must suffer and fail of their high
est possibilities till the race eradicates
envy, jealousy and bad temper.
What do you think of the following
hint from Nine. Sarah Grand, author
of the famous English novel, THE
Heavenly Twins?" ''lf good women will
combine in demanding good husbands,
a supply will eventually arise to meet

IRIS. A. II. Woodall Of Washington
has invented most useful attachment
to the typewriting machine. 1t is de-
vice which renders it no longer neces-
sary for the typewriting operator to lift
the carriage after a line is finished and
slide it back to the beginning of the next
one. With Mrs. Woodalls attachment
the machine does this for itself auto
matically as soon as the end of a line is
reached. ELIZA ARCHARD CONNER.

The tradition goes that just as Eve was
departing from the garden Of Eden she

fuls of talk, which she distributed among
her daughters, and it has been circulat-

summer I wonder man can ever look
woman in the face again. The United

ever lived that could speak four hours,
then after talking all her audience into a
state of coma leave off and take up the

it frequently, both in law courts and in
legislative assemblies. They have talked
till they have driven off their audi

the United States senate the boast is
openly made with regard to the repeal
bill that its opponents are going to talk
it to death. They have been going on
