Mrs, Phyllis Leveriiee.

Mrs. Phyllis Levcridge, who has been appointed school inspector of school dis trict No. 2 in New York city, is we'll fitted for the position by her knowledge of languages This school district is the most cosmopolitan ill the city, and the foreign element so largely predominates that Mrs. Leveridge's familiarity with German, French and Italian will mate- rially aid in her work with mothers and teachers. So little attention is given to cleanliness among the people of the east side that the first reform measure to be adopted by the new inspector will be to insist upon tidiness among the school children.
 Mrs. Leveridge was Miss Phyllis May CT before her marriage and is of Ger man and French extraction. She is a young woman, and her own children arc an inspiration to her to better the C. il dition of the schools.

A Badly Needed Example.

The ac,;on of the Pennsylvania Col lego For Women ill promptly suspend ing those 1G girls who walked home from church with their fellows" ill defiance of an ironclad rule of the in stitution will be heartily commended by all thoughtful persons, and if it were followed at home by generous applica- tion of punishment of the old fashioned sort it would probably bring these prematurely grown up young misses to clearer notion than they ever had be- fore of their position in relationsto soci- ety in general. One of the things ill this country that strikes a foreigner most extensively is the spectacle of girls of 13 and upward flirting" with boys of the same age, going to the theater with them and accepting all manner of attentions from them. It is bad for the girls and worse for the boys. Inciden tally it adds to the number of old maids. for few girls who grow up ill this man. ner are likely at 20 to prove attractive to men: Those good people who arc alarmed at the increasing number of young men who prefer to lead the selfish life of bachelor had better turn their attention to this evil Press.

Preachers Made Victims.

"1reachers are the prey of all sorts of swindlers," said a prominent Methodist divine the other day to a group of fellow clergymen who were gathered ill the Methodist Book concern ill Fifth av~ enue ''I shall never forget" he con- tinued, "how 1 was once taken ill by what we sometimes call temperance tramp.

The man refer to came one Wednesday evening to see mo while Twas stationed ill q country town up ill New York state. He presented one or two letters of recommendation from ministers whom I knew and said that he desired to lecture for me. We made over for his use bedroom ill the center of the house.

 "At breakfast the next morning after grace had been said was serving the oatmeal when the temperance tramp pointed with his knife at the dish, and looking at my 1eau figure asked disdain- fully, Do you think that stuff will make you fat?'

CLUBS AND eusINess WOMEN.

A Phase of the Subject Which Is Not of.
 ten Considered.
 Mrs. Barbara N. 'Galpin, the assist ant business manager of the Somerville Journal, in a recent paper before the Georgia State Federation of Women's Clubs, presented some sensible views upon the value of woman's club to business woman, a subject that has not been heretofore il1tieh considered Mrs. Galpin assumes that the woman's club should be both educational and social and then asks how it affects the ,bust- hess woman.
 To her benefit generally, she replies; to her detriment sometimes. The old saying that time is money Is pertinent. If she be in business for herself, she will know how much of this coin she cau in- vest in club life. If she is employed by another, she must consider another's in- terests. A business woman connected with club or two will make not only friends, but business patronage The wider circle of friends she has the more successful financially she is likely to be. This mercenary view, however, is not the most beneficial. The greater part of her time is spent ill struggle with bad bills, exacting customers, close bar gains and financial anxiety. She gets in- to a groove of worry out of which she is rarely jostled, and here is where the club proves a blessing. It takes her into different atmosphere. The lighter vein of life is touched, and she is rested, cheered and made stronger.
 An enthusiastic club woman can sell 11a6 off 1I1h citation, but q business woman often finds them. There is an almost irresist- ible fascination about club life, and sometimes she is led to give time to meetings at the expense of her regular duties. The fascination increases, and her best thought goes to her club, and so before she realizes it her business in terests are jeopardized
 Another point of injury is the amount of time and attention a business woman is often called upon to give to her club friends whose own time seems to be comparatively worthless. These friends go into her office or store and talk for an hour or more on any subject under the sun except that connected with her business, never realizing that this, to her, pleasant call means hurried work the rest of the day for the woman al ready short of time know at least one woman who lost her position as assist ant business manager of good concern because club associates made her office a sort of meeting ground and she was too careful of their feelings to tell them that their friendliness was jeopardizing her position.
 The advantages of club life to busi- ness woman are many. A woman with good business ability and a clear head is ! not useless member of club; the benefit is mutual. The business woman | is valuable to the club the club is more so to her, for it gives not only financial benefit, intellectual advancement and social privilege, but the loving compan- ionship and tender sympathy of the real l rulers of the world-true women.

EDITH SESSIONS TUPPER.
Heads That Titles Turn,

In London society float about many fun ny stories of people whose heads are turned by the acquisition of small title bestowed by royalty in the progress of some official function. One told of the wifc of city magnate who bought a country place and was finally knighted. The lady was of very humble origin, and her elevation was too much for her. The clergyman of the village-a scion of noble fanlily-called upon tho new knight to congratulate him and was kept waiting in the drawing room for some 20 minutes Then the door was flung open by powdered hunky, who, ushering in the fat and florid mis- tress of the house, bawled out at the top of his voice, "The Lady Jonesr'

CAYLOR'S BALL GOSSIP

 Q Chance-Uncle Anson as 8 Theatrical
 StaF=Swhy Not Several OthersT
 Not for years has the race for the pen nant in the National league been so close and exciting among so many clubs in mid season. On July II there was less than two games difference between the first and sixth clubs, while the New Works, in ninth position, despite their great handi- cap of injured players, were but 615 games behind the leaders. Only one club of the 12 on that date was above the 600 per cent mark, and seven were in the fivehundreds. It is sIreh race which has brought base ball excitement to it's highest pitch throughout the League circuit. That the excitement of the race is not confined to spectators, but dominates the players also, is shown almost every day by reports of unusual trouble with umpires and by "scrap' now and then between the mem bers of cohtending mines. One of these unfortunate affairs occurred in Chicago during the visit of the New York team. Pitcher Clarke and Uncle Anson had q contention during the second game of the series. The Chicago chief was coaching from the line near first, while Chicago players were on first and second bases. Anson claimed that the ball in use was ripped and asked for an investigation. In stead of throwing the ball to the umpire, Clarke thoughtlessly tossed it toward An son for the purpose of letting the latter sec for himself. Then the astute veteran turned a neat trick. Instead of catching the ball, he pretended to be surprised and dodged. The ball rolled away, and the base runners were permitted by the um- pire to move up. One of them afterward scored the winning run. From that in- eident grew the report that Clarke had thrown the ball at Anson in fit of rage.
 The fit of rage came after the trick, and when the game ended New York's wrothy

Huxley on Woman sufrrare.

The death of Professor Huxley recalls his sensible words on the woman ques- tion:
 Suppose, for the sake of argument, we accept the inequality of the sexes as one of natures immutable laws; call it fact that women are inferior to men in mind, morals and physique. Why should this settle or materially affect the subject of so called woman's rights? Would not this very inferiority be Q reason why every advantage should be given to the weaker sex, not only for its own good, but for the highest develop ment of the race?
