The next step is the nearest duty,
whatever it may be and wherever it
may appear to take us. Of course 1 re-
gard the possession of the ballot as most
obviously our nearest duty, and until
we can secure it we must turn all atten-
tion to preparing for it. Perhaps, then,
the closest thing at hand, [ might say,
is the preparation for the ballot. Every
woman should undergo a course of treat
ment, so to speak. 1t won't unfit her
for other things Preparation for the
ballot means simply broader, deeper
and higher view Of life in all directions,
and should like to know what woman,
be she mother, teacher, writer. minister,
doctor, lawyer or journalist, wouldn t
be the better for that.-Phebe Hama

AS TO WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
Are Not It's opponents Seriously Mistake
In So.ne of Their Claims?


In Sostae of Their ClaimsS
Prominent woman suffragists in the
east give out that they propose to con-
tinue to strive for the enfranchisement
of their sex until their efforts are crown
ed with success in every state in the
Union. These women are to be COM.
mended for their untiring zeal, which
is no doubt actuated by a lofty and sim
cere desire to see what they conceive to
be the right prevail, but to some extent
at least they are idealists who see in the
success of their efforts an entirely new
condition upon a very much loftier plane
of existence for woman than is now Sc
cured to her by the lawmaking power
of governments, but the question is,
How is the mere acknowledgment Of
woman going to fit her for the duties
and requirements of political equality?
The mistake that suffragists make,
it is safe to say, is in advancing the
theory that all women are as we'll fitted
by nature to deal with economic and
political problems as the average man,
and that opportunity is all that is need
ed to demonstrate that fact. It will not
be denied that some women are natural
~ better equipped in every way to deal
with political questions than some men,
but is it not the exception rather than
the rule? And does not the exception
obtain because natural law demands it
SO to be? If SO, it is difficult to see just
how the Acknowledgement merely is GO
ing to change the natural order of
things 1t is argued, and the PROPOSE
ton may have merit, that political
equality might in time be the means of
educating and advancing woman in the
school of experience up to where she
would have a comprehensive under
standing of what is needed from time
to time to advance the material and So
cial welfare of humanity, but it would
be an experience concerning which his
tory gives no intimation of the probable
outcome.
The ultra antisuffragists insist that
woman has but one natural sphere, and
that is domestic and social life, but
that is as far from being true as the
claim that the acknowledgment will
remedy all the evils of our political
life. There are plenty of women who
are as unfit for domestic life as many
men are for military duty. We do not
mean mentally or physically untitled in
either case, but they were just ''born
wrong" and nothing less than recrea-
tion would fit either one for what their
sex would indicate were the natural
avenues Of existence and employment
for them. Omaha World-Herald.

CURING CROSS EYES.
This Is Now Readily Performed by the
Early Use of Glasses.

Stra bismus, or 'fcrOss eyes" are now
safely and almost painlessly cor
rected. The desired result may be
obtained by the wearing of proper
spectacles in early youth; but if the
evil is not then corrected. an opera
ton, later on, will be necessary.
The removal of a cataract from
the eye is one. of the most delicate
operations performed by the oculist.
A cateract is formed by the lens of the
eye becoming Opaque, so as to appear
grayish or otherwise, when it shuts
out the light from the optic nerve.
The oculist of to-day cuts into the
ball of the eye and removes the dark
ened lens, and the optician supplies
the defect by artificial lenses that
make good the sight.
The demand for glass eyes is in
creasing as the character and quality
of the eyes improve. Unsightly eye
balls are now removed in part, leav-
ing enough of the muscles to rotate
the glass shell that is placed over
them. Where the work is properly
done the possessor of the glass eye
can move it about with all the natur-
alness of a real optic, and in many
cases it is very difficult to tell the
manufactured article from the genu-
inc.
All the wild stories about su bstitut-
ing rabbits eyes for human eyes, or
the statements to the effect that
oculists can take eyes from their
sockets, wipe them on a coarse towel
and restore them unimpaired to the
happy patient, are all moonshine. and
any one who is called upon to listen
to any such tales is perfectly justified
if, under such circumstances, he
should wink the other eye.

old 's4 Was Good to Woman.

Old ninety-four was kind to woman,
and she may well bless his reign. The
new king comes with fair promise and
holds out to her everything she may
grasp. He has bounty to dispense and
favors to bestow. If she cares for suf-
frage, she has but to hold up to the
monarch the example of his predecessors
and say in 1894 we did this or that If
she. wishes the ''new woman estab-
lished for all time, she has but to point
to Sarah Grand and others of her cult.
If she would adopt bloomers and dress
reform, she must name 1894 as the ruler
that encouraged the greatest amount of
agitation. In even her hardest struggle
for rights 1894 has her gratitude,
and no less generous year will be toler-
ated, DR.. Julia Holmes Smith in Chi

Two much talked of women at pres
ent are Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs and her
sister, Miss Fair, the daughters of SEN
ator Fair, whose recent death has left
them even greater heiresses than they
were before. Both of these women are
extremely pretty. Of medium height,
slender and graceful, with singularly
glossy hair and white skins and always
we'll gowned, they would be bellies even
without their large fortunes
They are noted for being most gracious
hostesses, and at the ball they gave last
summer at Newport many pleasant COM
ments were made as to their untiring
efforts to see that their guests enjoyed
the evening They are very charitable,
but with very decided views as to how
their charity should be dispensed.
Miss Birdie Fair is said to have q
more than ordinary talent for business
and to possess her fathers gift of turn
ing everything she touches into gold. tt
is said she has speculated more than
once, and with most satisfactory results
to herself. She make it a point to thor
oughly understand all about her own
property. She is remarkably cultivated
young woman and is very fond of all
sort of sport, plays golf we'll and is con-
sidered one of the best women bicyclists.
She is also a good conversationist and
is fond of going into society. New

Miss Elizabeth A. S. Dawes has gain
ed the degree of D. Lit. at London uni
versity. This degree has never previous
ly been won by woman. Miss Dawes
is daughter of the Rev. J. S. Dawes,
formerly of Surbiton, and granddaugh-
ter of the we'll known Professor Blasius
of the University of Halle. She was edu-
Gated at Girton, where she won high
distinction.
The thesis which has gained for Miss

Pronunciation of the Greek Aspirates. -
She is indeed Greek scholar of high
accomplishments. For year she was
pr ofessor of Greek at one of the most
important educational establishments in
Baltimore, and for the last three years
she has been successfully conducting
classes in her own school at Lindores,

first woman to take the degree of M. A

How To Be Pretty, Though Cold.

Chow to be pretty, though cold'' is a
difficult problem for the unfortunate
woman who cannot afford furs of some
description in this season when fur gar
ments are made SO fascinatingly becom-
ing, with their wide, soft collars and SO
expensive in their exaggerated fullness.
Sealskin is the one fur which is continu-
ally in fashion, and it is so distinctly
becoming to every face and complexion
that it will never lose its popularity. It
is not quite so aristocratic as the gray
haired Russian sable, but that is mat
ter of rarity and price rather than a
question of beauty. Chinchilla is one Of
the season IS favorites, and for the wom-
an with clear pink and white complex
ion there can be nothing prettier.
A beautiful evening cloak is made of
dark green bengaline, with a lining and
full cape Of chinchilla. For those who
cannot afford the larger garments there
are Elton coats of seal and Persian lamb,
with MORE velvet. sleeves. These are
made with wide revers and high collar,
either single or double breasted, and are
very chic little garments for young la
dies especially, and still cheaper are the
collarettes, miniature capes and fur boas,
which were never SO pretty as they arc
now, and they answer every purpose for
becoming effect. -Philadelphia Press.

The Empress OF japan.

The empress of Japan is said to enjoy
the largest washing of any royal or pie
beian parsonage in the round world. She
is very petite and winsome little lady.
It does not take much to cover her, to
be sure, but Japanese queen must
change that covering many, many times
a day, and her raiment must be of deli
cate, cobwebby, lacey silk, satin, Grape
or crepe de chine. Even if she never
wears the same article twice she has it
cleaned, washed, perfumed and either
packed way in her wardrobe, presented
to her ladies in waiting or her beloved
female retainers. At one time during
the last summer season, when her maids
were busy putting away summer robes
and bringing to light autumn ones, she
had over 1900 silk kamonas sent to her
royal laundry and cleansing department
of the imperial household. This, they
say, was very small amount indeed
for the royal washerwomen.
Her funny little stockings, with ar
rangements like gloves fingers for each
toe, numbered many, many thousands
and had to be attended to as carefully
and thoroughly as though she had only
one pair and never knew where the next
one would come from. She dons Euro
pean costume, to be sure, almost all of
the time, and always at state festivals,
and this fad, together with the neces-
sary Japanese custom of donning a robe
for every day in the year, adds to her
weekly laundry list.-Tokyo Letter.

GEMS OF THOUGHT.

Dare to be true. Nothing can need

A friendly eye is slow to see small
faults.
Sum up at night what thou hast done
by day
Saying and doing well should yoke
together.
Scorn no mans love, though of
mean degree.
Let each one obey what is deepest,
highest and purest in him.
Struggle, earnest, deadly struggle, is

We love music for the buried hopes.
the garnered memories, the tender feel
ings it can summon at touch.
1t has been we'll observed that we
should treat fnturity as an aged friend
from whom we expect a rich legacy.
Friendship is the reciprocation of af-
lection, and he who has none to bestow
has no right to expect any in return.
Il is more from carelessness about the
truth than from intentional lying that
there is SO much falsehood in the world.
Pride creeps into the hottest and hum
blest exercises of self discipline. 1t is the
supremest natures only that escape the
faint
Do not dare to live without some clear
intention toward which your living
shall be bent. Mean to be something
with all your might.

Charles Wesley for New Years day. 1t
was first used in 1850.

from a book of short poems by Horny
Francis Lyle, printed in 1888. The mel
ody to which it is sung is from one Of

An Important Decision.

That public school teachers should be
spouseless is one of the edicts of New
Jersey, but it has never come to our
knowledge that married tutors could be
sued for divorce on account of leaving
home temporarily ''to teach the young
idea how to shoot. F." Yet that is the sub
stance of a decision recently given by
Vice Chancellor Pitney in favor of
Sewaren Benedict. The husband sued be-
cause his wife taught private school,
and she answered with one of the strong
est arguments ever brought up in the
court of chancery. Notwithstanding her
able defense, Judgment was given
against her. The vice chancellor held
that since the wife refused to surrender
school for home the Scriptural injunc-
ton held good in common law. s'There
is no middle ground, - the vice chancel-
lor adds. GA wife must live with her
husband or give sufficient reasons for re-
fusing to do so. A husband can use
physical restraint over wife's person
to enforce obedience. Woman S Jour

from an extended trip through Ken

"The south has problem of race, of

races do in the lower scale of civIliza-

today covering the whole social heavens.
There are the whites and the blacks,
with great gulf of prejudice, social
status and bitter memories fixed between
them
"The black man multiplies, swarms,
spreads, and overruns every locality, like
a river in time of freshet. He comes
upon every scene, and is everywhere like

Eight Birds on One Hat.

That Boston is well gone in barba-
rism appears from hat now on exhibit
ton in Temple place which is decorat-
ed, as we are told, by eight humming
birds. If we cannot go further, cannot
we do what it is said they did in Al
truria? The women of Altruria were
rather slow, it is said, in adopting in
advance the fashions of the twentieth
century. It was therefore enacted that
no one should wear a bird in her bon
net who had not herself killed the bird,
skinned it and stuffed it. We have a
good many barbarians in Boston of both
sexes, but there are few young women
who could bring themselves to killing
monwealth.

out Republican Help.
WASHINGTON, Jan 29.-The friends of
the ''new navy" expect to have a hard
fight in the house to secure the passage
of that part of the appropriation bill
providing for three new battleships and
twelve torpedo boats They will have
the weight of Secretary Herbert's re-
commentator behind them, but the de-
pleted condition of the treasury will be
the chief argument used to block the
plan.
Chairman Sayers of the appropriations
committee has announced that he will
fight the attempt to build new ships and
his position upon the bill will insure for
him the cooperation of the ultra econ
omic of both houses The members of
the naval committee find encourage
ment in the statement by Represe NATIVE
Wilson in his recent speech that the rev.
enues will soon reach expenditures and
the hopeful assurances of the presidents

to be feared.
They will use these authoritative state
ments in reply to the opposition and are
moreover relying upon Republican votes
