The Toothbrush.

The care of the toothbrush is an impor-
tant subject, of which, as rule, but little
is known. Tap the brush before using it
to seeif you can jerk out any loose bristles.
Tap the brush after using it to shake out
the water and put it away fairly dry. Do
not keep it closely shut up in brush tray
or dressing case bottle. Loose bristles may
be found in new brush in consequence
OF the wire having cut the bristles in half
while drawing them into the hole, the
knot being too full. Bristles may project
beyond the level of brush, ths knot being
too slack. Clip them off. Do not with
draw them, and thereby make the knot
still looser Bristles will perish if brushes
are put away thoroughly wet and left for
days to get quite dry. After time even
with the greatest care this will happen.
Brushes will smell extensively if closely
shut up when wet. They will also become

L.,ay Randolph Churchill.

Some Interesting "reminiscences of the
early days of Lady Randolph Churchill
come from Rochester, whore she was born.
In her girlhood, saysa writer, she often
met Thurlow Weed and other leading
lights OF the American movement, and
from them she inlE.Sed a spirit of the
most intense and patriotic Americanism,
which has never left her, despite the fact
that since her marriage she has been far
and away the most enthusiastic Tory of
all the colony of American girls who are
wives of Englishmen. 1t is remembered
of Lady Churchill in the city on the Gen
esee that at a social entertainment given
short time before her marriage she was
the one person present who showed much
knowledge of the Declaration of Independ-
ence She was able to recite that fine old
document of defiance to King George YER
batim, and she did it SO we'll and with
such degree of rhetorical finish and so
evident an appreciation oS>its significance
that she was enthusiastically applauded
when she was done and was obliged to re-
peat it before her audience was satisfied.

A Busy Woman Physioian.

DR. Louise Fiske Bryson, who has long
been before the public as an exponent of all
that is most progressive in medical science,
is one of the most painstaking of women
physicians. Her timely articles, which fire.
ouently appear in The Medical Record, the
New York Medical journal and The Jour
nal of Mental and Nervous Diseases, of
which sheis one of the collaborators, are
eagerly read by the laity and the medical
fraternity alike. To her was given the not
inconsiderable honor Of reading the first
paper on grip before the New York Acad-
envy of Medicine in 1890. Besides being visit
ing physician to the Workingman's school,
where the most enlightened theories con-
corning physical care and development pre-
vail, DR.. Bryson is instructor at the New
York Postgraduate Medical School and
Hospital. She has an inherited right to her
talents, for her family was noted for its
erudition in the reigns of the early Tudors,
and she comes from a long line of savants
and teachers on both sides. Dr. Bryson is
brilliant conversational and well known
in society. In person she is petite and
sprightly, gracious in manner and faultless
though quiet in dress. She is member of
the Barnard club and of numerous scien-
tiic associations.-New York Letter

Tact With Children.

Begin early, say the trainers of animals
and of plants. Likewise with children be-
gin early-that is, before they can perceive
that anything is begun. 1t is the uncon
scious influence that tells. Not even grown
people like to know that somebody is try
ing to do them good. just here child
incident related by mother is apropos:
Her daughter of or 5 years told a false
hood. She said to the child, What a
pity, for this makes dark spot on your
self" Hearing this, the girl began to cry.
But, my desr," said the mother, If
from this moment you speak the exact
truth, the dark spot will go away This
comforted the child and gave her inspira-
ton. How much better some Sigh method
as this than the customary onem saying:
sob, what naughty girl! Now God
won't love you," or "God will punish
you,'' or ''If you do SO, you will not go to
heaven when you die. Abby Dias in
Metaphysical Magazine.

A Dainty American Duchesse.

The Duchesse de la Rochefoucauld, who
was once upon time-and only a few
years ago-lovely Matte Mitchell of Ore7
gon and New York, is said to be one of
the most charming hostesses and one Of
the most brilliantly clever women in sun
ny France. OF the truth of this assertion
people who have the average opinion
of the clever Frenchwomen may have
doubts, but of the duchesse's beauty there
is only one opinion. She is remembe
in New York as a lovely girl with per-
feet figure, superb snowy shoulders, which
she. always draped with chiffons, gauzes
and tulles in off shoulder fashion, which
showed to the best advantage the very
classical contour of the lovely shoulders
Miss Mitchell also had regular features,
bronze gold hair, a complexion of dazzling
pink and white and lovely eyes like aqua
marine jewels of a haunting shade of blue
gray. No wonder that Paris imagines
Senator Mitchell's daughter as clever in
every way as she is pretty.

whv some women Do Not Marry.

One such woman was used to attack a
new science or language every year, and,
failing, from her lack of teacher or COM
panion, would pile the textbooks in heaps
until walls of dusty volumes shut in every
room of the house. She fell at last into a
state of semi-idiocy, and wandered like
ghost around the village, gathering scraps
of foreign tongues which she did not I'M
derstand.
1t is hereditary habit in certain families
for the women to have a grief to shut them
selves into single room and remain there
Gor 10, 20, 30 years. Nor are the morbid
fancies of these women always gloomy and
sad. They live sometimes in an enchanted
land of their own.
One of whom I know, a woman of sym
pathetic temperament and motherly in
stincts, refused to marry a man whom she
loved because he had gone to live in another
town, and she would be forced to leave the
old house and half acre which were the cen
ter of the world to her The courtship wen5
on for 40 years, but she was true to the
house!
Another drove her lover away on the day
of the wedding because she could not bring
herself to change the name of Wonson for
any other. He was rich, and she was poor
He remained faithful and ready as long as
she lived. She died at 40, a maiden Won

Energetic and Pushing Women.

Let no one confuse the energetic woman
with the rushing woman. There is as much
difference between energy and push as
there is between obstinacy and firmness
or between vanity and pride. The world is
full of pushing men and women; people
who go roughshod to their ends, showing
aside or down, anywhere SO they are out Of
the way, any who may interfere with their
progress. 1t does not follow that they are
poor, lowly born or ignorant. They may
have much to satisfy ambition, and it
would seem that they might Herewith be
content, but if it is their natures to push,
push they will. They always have the best
room in boarding house or hotel, the most
comfortable section in the sleeper and the
best seats in any place of public entertain
ment They are not always disagreeable
and are rarely unpopular. Many people
envy them. They know something of hui
man nature-when to bully, when to cajole,
and, best of all, when to stop. They are
bold pushers and willy ones; but, whatever
the individual characteristics, selfishness
must be the leading one, and we gladly
step aside and give the way -after the man
ner of Randolph of Roanoke-to the vast
army Of pushers.-New York Telegram.

Women In Washington.

Washington is paradise former and u
purgatory for young women. IN no city
in America is she SO handicapped by the
numbers of her own set. Elsewhere she is
sought. Here she has to come down off
her pedestal and enter the grand scramble
for attention or go without. This is such
a complete reversal of what she has hither-
to been accustomed to that it shocks and
pains her sense of what is due her. II
there were so men to one woman in socie-
ty, suppose that the one woman could be
as badly spoiled as the one man is now.
The only security for a healthy and natu-
raj social intercourse isthe equalization Of
the number of men and women in society.
It's one sided affair now and is very per-
nioious in it's effect and results in the men
being badly spoiled and the women imbit-
tered or!rendered forward and merciless to
each other w ashington Post H.

Happiness In a Boarding House.

II am of the opinion" said the social
philosopher, trying hard to appear thought
full, THAT at least half the stories about
the horrors and discomforts of boarding
house life are little frazzled at the edges
from old age and frequent use. When cir
cumstances compelled me to bid Ian
gushing farewell to dear little fat and
from the acquaintance of second floor
back boarding house cell, I expected to
wear Grape on my hat and grief in my
heart for at least month. But instead
feel like Haunting peacocks' plumes from
sunrise to sunset. And why? Because
my dears, my battles with ice bills and
gas bills, grocery bills and window clean
ing bills are affairs of the past. Except
for my board bill the only experience with
collectors that havei is on Tuesday night,
when a nice little washerlady in shawl
and hood regularly calls to see about the
money for my laundry work. Happiness,
my dears lives in a boarding housep'-

Every mother should make the infexi-
BILE rule in her household that no risks
may be run with her baby. Experiment
upon yourself if you will, but you have
no right to submit your innocent child to
the danger of experiments. Do not try,
this and that which every neighbo recon-
mends. Have family physician in whom
you have every confidence and follow his
Instructions to the minutest details You
owe this to him and to your child. In the
nineteenth century science has made won
derful advances, and in civilized America
the ''yarb woman" has no place today 1t
may be true that some 'aunty' in your
neighborhood knows moro about babies
than do some physicians, but the moral is
not to listen withs implicit faith to the

understand his profession. Womankind.

Canned Goods.

In regard to canned goods an eminent
physician says: Reject every article that
does not show the line of rosin round the
edge of the solder of the cap, the same as
is seen on the seam on the side of the can.
Reject every can that does not have the
name of the manufacturer or firm upon it
as we'll as the name of the company OF
town whore manufactured. Standards
have all this. When the wholesale dealer
is ashamed to haze his name on the goods
fight shy of him. Press up the bottom Of
the can. II decomposition is beginning,
the tin will rattle the same as the bottom
Of the oiler CT your sewing machine will
do. If tho goods are sound, it will be solid,
and there will be no rattle in the tin. Re-
jeot every tin that shows any sign of rust
around the cap on the inside of the head
of the can. If housekeepers are educated
on these points, then the muriate of zinc
amalgain will become thing of the past. !"

A Simple Night Lamp.

In every home it is sometimes necessary
to have night light, and it becomes indis-
pensable where there are invalids or young
children. A lamp when turned low diff
fuses an unpleasant and unwholesome odor
in room. Gas is also Objectionable.
There are pretty little affairs called fairy
lamps" but many of these do not work
well and are found to offer disagreeable
features. A cheap and simple night lamp.
which can be arranged by one person, is
made by floating a piece of candle on a
small, thin disk of wood or tin in bowl
of water. 1t will last for several hours.
Indeed it can be made to burn slowly by
sprinkling fine salt around the wick, and
will go out when it burns down to the wa
ter, into which it drops and is extinguish-
ed without giving out any noxious smell

One great cause for houses being over
run with water bugs is the utter lack of
washing down plumbing fixtures, both
inside and cut, says New York writer.
Open pipes will obviate all this, but those

The Women of SPAN.

On Mrs. Lang's showing in The HUI
manitarian the life of Spanish woman
must be dull enough. But of course there
is everything in the point of view. The
Spanish woman evidently has neither our
ambition nor our uncomfertably developed
sense of tedium.
She has no aspirations for wider hori-
zon; she has no desire for university
education, or a parliamentary vote, or
profession to render her independent She
is perfectly satisfied with life as it is; she
has no responsibilities, money affairs be-
ing attended to by her male relatives and
housekeeping being looked after by tho
servants; she has plenty of dancing, firta-
ton and intrigue, which is carried to a
science and is her chief amusement in life.
What more can she possibly want? would
be her answer to your query as to whether
her existence realized her ideal of happi-
ness. Elk change
