THE EDUCATION OF WOMEN.

There is one aspect of the movement for
the development OF the new woman which
commands universal approval, and that is
the highest education. A quarter of GEN.
fury ago a college trained young woman
was rare individual, but now they are az
plenty as college bred men were at that
time and the advantage is noticeable in every
phase of life. The children are brought nm
in better atmosphere because of the hiober
education of the mothers, and there is a
marked improvement in social life and
domestic environments.
The influence OF an educated mother
upon the minds of children is beyond de-
scription or estimate. However learned
| the father may be, or attentive to his obi.
cations as parent the guiding of the child
is the function of the mother. The effect
OF heredity may be disclosed in the SIM
ilarity of disposition between father and
child, but SO far as the matter of training
the mind goes it is the mothers work, and
in the proportion that the atmosphere of
the nursery is refined the minds of the
children will be broad and healthful.
There are differences Of opinion upon the
question of investing the women with the
right of suffrage and disagreements in
regard to the expediency of admitting
women into participation with men in the
struggle for ascendency in business and
professional life, But there are no two
opinions on the desirability of the highest
education for women, for however illiterats
a man may be if his heart and mind are
right he takes delight in the accomplish,
ments of his wife and daughters. This
proposition is so evident as to need no
proof. Kansas City Times.

A GIRLS STRATAGEM.

May Carroll had just passed her eigh-
teenth year. She was sitting in the win
dow gazing out abstractedly.
Only DEAR said Mrs. Carroll, Il think
you ought to feel very highly honored. If
man like Squire Fleetwood had proposed
for my hand at eighteen should have felt
proud"
'But Squire Fleetwood is old enough to
be my father pleaded May.
GAS if few years, one way or the other
made any difference.
"And he has had two wives already"
Everybody will tell you, child, that he

cts altogether too much,' shuddered
May. There no telling how soon may be
called upon to make way for the fourth
Mrs. Peckwood?'
''Is that all you have to bring against
Squire peckwood?"
''No mother, it is not. He is avaricious
fault-fnding, whimsical, hypochondriac-'
"Mayw
"You asked me mother"
'But you know very well your fathers
heart is set on this marriage Why pre-
judice yourself against it, when the matter
is as good as settled?"
May Carroll knew very well that the
heart of obstinate Deacon Carroll was set
IA IL L., -
Squire Obed Fleetwood, and that was what
made her spirit grow faint within her. For
there was still another reason against this
i'll suited match-a reason which MAY had
not ventured to speak of to either father OF
mother-and it was this: May had already
given her little heart away to David

office, whose brains were his only capital

tain spice of maidenly dignity, which he
was bound to respect. GAS your bargain

matrimonial bargain-was made with my
parents, it must be unsealed in their pres
ence. | shall be very happy to accompany
you home, but until we reach there | will
hear no further word on the subject ~
And she branched off into a pleasant
little chatter on Indifferent subjects, while
the squire, disenchanted and disappointed,
stalked sullenly along by her side.
Half mile from the Carroll farm house
they met the deacon, gravely inspecting
the progress OF a line of stonewall
"Faher, said May, walking demurely
up to him, Squire Fleetwood has some
thing to say to you"
The deacon turned expectantly to the
squire. That individual Redeemed and
turned pale, stammered and suffered, but
finally contrived to signify the fact that

And the next May knew she was safe in
her own little room, laughing quietly to
herself at the success of her scheme.

good use did he make of the margin
given him, that he was married to Deacon
Caroll's pretty daughter while Squire
Fleetwood was yet Cooking about him.

woodn'
As these thoughts passed through her
mind Mrs Carroll voice interrupted their
current.
MAY child, what are you dreaming
about? Twice I've asked you a question,
and YOU have stared at me as if | were
empty space.
Il beg your pardon, mother; what did
you ask
Whether you knew that he was going
to take YOU over to the Fleetwood farm
this afternoon, to see the house of which
you are so soon to be the mistress?"
81 knew it MOTHER
"rhen why aren't you dressing your
self"
81 am dressed, mother"
"Indeed! Go upstairs and put on your
silk dress Immediately, and wear the garnet
set your father gave you your last birth
day"
May obeyed uuwllingly enough; but
when she came down stairs there was a
new brightness in her eye, an unwonted
color in her cheek. Squire Fleetwood, who
was waiting her appearance in the big easy
chair, with purple faced contentment,
chuckled to himself at her fresh young
beauty; and Mrs. Carroll mentally came to
the conclusion that May had resolved to
sbehave like sensible girl.
She was more mistaken, however, than
she had any idea Of Cupid, the mischiev-
GUS little imp of true love, had been in
visibly counseling Mademoiselle May in
the quiet and seclusion of her own apart
ment upstairs, and May had profited by
his hints.
''Tm sure we girls would have little
enough chance in this world" pouted May,
'If we didn't have recourse to our wits
once in while
She was all smiles and dimples and
winning words, as Squire Fleetwood trund
led heavily along by her side, and that
portly gallant racked his brains for some
appropriate conversation to amuse the
third Mrs. Fleetwood that was to be.
The Squire wiped his beet red brow and
secretly wished he had read Moore and
Byron in his younger days, so as to be able
to converse agreeably with pretty girl of
eighteen.
'That's the house," he said at last,
pointing to the gable end of the Fleetwood
mansion, peeping through mass of elm
boughs AZ Miss Carroll had been familiar
with the neighborhood for eighteen years,
she replied with some acerbity'

'How will you like it for a future
home?' he asked with clumsy effort at
badinage
Il don't know. | may like it well
enough, " answered May indifferentiy
but it has got to be altered very much. "
Squire Peckwood's jubilant countenance
fell. To him the family home of the Peck
woods was a modern mecca, sacred spot,
faultless in its perfection, and susceptible
of no possible improvement.
'Altered ~ he echoed 'lIow?"
"That horrid old elm-tree must be cut
down first, said May with a disparaging
motion of her parasol toward it. 1T

SThat elm-tree, ma'am," said Squire
Fleetwood huskily, was planted by Moses

1t was the first time she had ever called
him by his christian name, yet it did not
sound sweet in Squire Peckwood's ears.
GLOW narrow this hall is ~ said May
pettishly, as the Squire threw open the
front door and silently motioned for her to
enter. Can it be widened? And only
one snuffy little parlor -
at was good enough for Susan Emery,

irately; ''nor did Jane my second wife,
ever venture to object to it ~
They must have been milk and water

Dear me, Obed, l never can live hele.
The two rooms must be thrown into one,
with an arch across the center -
You can't do it, the chimney stack is

else -
That would be equivalent to building

ktlbmAFCk saw Won 11oltke'6 sentiment and
Went Him One Better.
A young German LADY Of rank, los-
sessed of great personal charms and sim
gularly winning manners, the daughter
Of a prominent politician, herself now a
happy wife and mother, once beguiled
MQltke, who was paying brief visit to
her fathers country home in Silesia,
into writing something in her autograph
album. This was the entry:
LUCE vergeht
Wahrheit besteht.
v MoLTKE, Feldmarscnall.
Which in English would be:
A lie must fail:
Truth viii prevail.
The willy damsel now determined to
bide her time until she should be able
to match Moltke's dictum. When her
family had again settled down in their
Berlin quarters for the winter season,
Prince Bismarck called one afternoon,
and she showed him her book, calling
his attention to what the great strate-
gist had written, adding artlessly: "Do
you think the same, dear prince? Per-
haps you would like TO add your COM
ment? And ON the same page? oh,
thank you SO very much And may ]
send the volume to the Wilhelmstrasse?"
The chancellor next day returned the
book, now a greatly treasured family
possession, and this is what he had writ
ten beneath the contribution of his col
league:
Wohl weiss ich, dass in jener Welt
Die Wahrheit stets den Sieg behalf.
Doch gegen LUCE dieses Lebens
Kampft selbst elm Feldmarschall vergebens.
V. BISMARCK. Reichskanzlcr.
Very roughly Englished, the chancel-
lor's lines might run something like
this:
In future worlds, beyond the pale,
Tho truth Is strong and shall prevail.
But 'gainst our mundane lies, tits plain,
Field marshals even fight in vain.
