That dish towels and common tow

A STRANGE CAREER.

Lady Gertrude Stock, nun, novel;
ist, Marquis daughter and baker 8
wife, has Just closed, in the shelter OF
Il convent, life of strange expert
ments. Had she possessed something
more than the very modest literary
capacity that was in fact hers, and had
her own personality thus been more
salient and interesting, her story
would have been one of the principal
romances of the modern social world.
Lady Gertrude Douglass entered
early upon her cloistral life in u con-
vent of the Good Shepherd. She
spent many years there, not as a nov
ice, but as "professcd" nun, bound by
all the VOWS. From these she was au-
thoritatively and officially released,
hers being one of the very few cases
in which such dispensation is given, or
indeed, desired.
Lady Gertrude wrote two or three
average novels, but few years after
her return to the world she joined her
brother, the Rev Lord Archibald
Douglas, in his work Mt Catholic
orphanage IN the Harrow road. She
did her work there simply and com
plctely, and brother and sister alike
made themselves the servants of the
little waits and strays they sheltered.
To the orphanage was attached 0
bakery for the partial self.support OF
the charity and the technical teach
ing of the boys.
During Lord Archibalds absence il
Canada, whittier he had travelled IL
charge of some of his orphans, hi
sister took step of which he had hat
no warning. With her baker husband
she then set up little shop near Brool
Green-with small success.
Very recently Lady Gertrude Stool
wrote a novel, of which baker wa
the hero. But her husband was away
trying to better his fortunes in Soutl
Africa, when, last week, she died -

AS THEY DO IN RUSSIA.

In matters relating to the welfare of
women, as in most other affairs, Rus
sia seems to consistently progress
backward" From the beginning of
the new year all the women hitherto
employed as clerks and telegraph
operators on the various Russion rail-
WAYS were dismissed and their plnces
are being filed by men. No reason of
any kind was assigned for this harsh
and reactionary step, and it was not
even suggested that these employees
had in any way failed in their duties
or proved unequal to their work.
On the contrary, it is declared by
those who have had opportunities of
Judging, that they have filed their
posts in thoroughly efficient manner.
The edict which rewarded their SER
vice with sentence of summary dis
missal can only be attributed to some
sudden spasm of hostility against the
claim of women to earn their living
by their own exertions. - Chicago
