Woman In the Ascenaanf.

It would be harder to say what women
are not doing these days than what they
are doing, for their ambition has become
as boundless as work itself, and there Is
hardly an industry, or profession, OF
an Office of any kind where their persever-
ing presence cannot be found. Woman
has by her own deserving efforts become
mans competitor, even to the very thresh-
old of equal rights, and has enthroned her
self within the very sanctuaries that were
once sacred to man alone.
But it must not be thought in conse-
quence of their wider field that woman's g
hand has lost it's cunning for womanly
employment and womanly arts, and that
her interest flags in the ever particular
sphere Of domesticity, for such is not the
case. Never befo:e in the history of wom-
ankind has her own exclusive work re-
ceived so much attention or reached such
state of perfection.
A visit to the women's exchanges and
decorative art rooms furnishes revela-
tion. The tawny machine work, which is
80 entioingly displayed in our Large empo-
RUINS, would pale with disgust at the com
parison of dainty needfework, laces, EN-
broideries and linen drawn work of every
conceivable design and description here

PATROL WAGON AS A CARRIAGE.

How q Funny Police Captain Rode Home
From a SoCiable.
Quite good story was found drifting
about the other day on the surface of life.
1t concerns Lieutenant Hayes of the police
force, who was once captain and located
at the Desplaines street station. The cap
tain was considered an excellent brother
in-law Of the church, and one night he
laid down the cares of office long enough to
accompany his family and some friends to
a church sociable. The night was not a
pleasant one, and when the hour came for
dispensing there was good reason for not
wishing to walk through the streets. A
rain was falling, and the wind was blow
ing. Carriages were most decidedly in Or
der.
All through the festivities of the even
ing the captain had borne master hand
at entertainment. He had made jokes, and
the jokes had been laughed at till the gen.
eral impression Of him was that Captain
Hayes was monstrously funny fellow.
OF course police captain on the West Side
wields good deal of power of one kind
and another, and he doesn't have to exert
himself as common man would to achieve.
applause. Some philosopher once remark
ed, observing that all good Frenchmen
were laughing at the bonmots of Napo-
leon, that ian emperor can be funny with
very little wit" In modified way this
was true of the captain. True, his jests
had been merry, in manner, but none of
them possessed the humorous merit Of his
leave taking.
Just as the rest of the guests were grum-
bling about the door and dreading the
plunge into darkness and rain Captain
Hayes disappeared from the scene for
moment, ran down to the corner and tar
ried moment at the patrol box.
Then he came back and gathered his
flock about him. BY the time all their
wraps were adjusted there was a clatter of
hoofs on the pavement, the startling peal
Of gong, and there at the curb stood
patrol wagon.
Captain Hayes hustled his family and
friends inside, climbed up behind them in
regulation copper style, gave word to
the driver and vanished into the darkness.
"Taking them home from church 30
ciable in patrol wagonl" exclaimed one
matron, speechless thereafter at the cap
tain's humor.
"Yes," said her husband, dutifully
laughing at the captain last joke. "That's
the funniest thing he has done all the
evening"
The captain still possesses very fne
sense OF umor.--Chicago Herald.

Christmas In Cslcutta.

The sun shines gloriousIy overhead,
the sky is pale, cloudless blue, and the
foliage around us shows every shade and
tint from brown to scarlet, from the
palest to the deepest green. We saun-
ter along the grass under the trees be-
side the avenue and find a quiet spot,
with pool Of clear water haunted by
swans, before us. The ground Is car
peted with soft grass and shaded with
trees. On one side, 800 yards away, is
a bank of shrubs with the most gor geous
variety Of coloring from mauvs and Ii
lac to crimson red; on the other three,
cool, restful green leaves. On such a
Christmas morning 1t is good to be alive.
Let as think of it as we shiver over
our fires in England. We spread our
rugs and coats on the ground and lie
down and smoke lazily. Presently the
Khidmutgars arrive with hampers. We
do not move, for in India we have not
that irrational and idiotic notion that a
picnic is no picnic unless you wait upon
yourselves, lay your own lunch and burn
your own fingers over your kettle. The
lunch is admirable, from the solids to

Nothing has been forgotten, for once a
Khidmutgar has been taught thing
be may be relied upon to do 1t again
with absolute exactitude on a similar
occasion till the crack of doom unless
he is idiotic.
A picnic is complete rest, with
nothing to do save to lie still and enjoy.
No one even talks unless the spirit
moves him. For the most part we sit
quiet, drinking in the beauty of the
scene. The servants pass silently to and
fro, handing dishes, which are accepted
or rejected as silently. 1t is waste of
energy to speak. The cool breeze fans
us gently. There are no mosquitoes. All
is peace. Last of all come the coffee
and the cigars. Review.
