THE WRITING WOMAN.

A Delightful Comparative Study with
the Writing Man.
When Il man writes he wants pomp
and circumstance and eternal space
from which to draw. If he writes at
home he needs Il study or Il library,
and he wants the key lost and the key
hole pasted over so that nobody can
disturb him, His finished products
are of much Importance TO him, and.
for time, he wonders why the planets
have not changed their orbits or the
sunshine acquired n new brilliancy be-
cause he has written something by q
cast-iron method.
A woman picks up some scraps Of a
copy book or the back Of pattern,
sharpens her pencil with the scissors
or gnaws the end sharper, She takes
an old geography, tucks her foot under
her sucks her pencil periodically, and
produces literature.
She can write with Genevieve pound
ing out her exercises on the piano, with
Mary buzzing over her history lesson
for tomorrow, Tommy teasing the
baby, and the baby pulling the cats
tail. The domestic comes and goes for
directions and supplies, but the course
Of true love runs on, the lovers WOO and
win, and the villains kill and die, among
the most commonplace surroundings.
A mans best efforts, falling short of
genius, are apt to be stilted but the
woman who writes will often, with the
stump Of pencil and amid the distrac-
tons above mentioned, produce a ten
der bit Of poem, Il dramatic situation,
or Il page Of description that, though
critics rave, lives ON, travels through
the exchanges and finds place in the
scrapbo0ks of the men and women vino
know II good thing when they see it,
whether there is II well-known name
signed TO it or not. Boston Advertiser.

CRADLE OF THE RACE.
ARMENIA THE OLDEST LAND IN
THE WORLD.
a Country of Great Natural Re-
sources, but Devastated by the
Worthless Turk-May Yet BE Deliv-
cred from the Sultnn's Rule.
Native Home of Man.

The bloody massacres perpetrated by
the Turks and Kurds in the heart of
Armenia served to call public atten-
tion to one of the oldest and most re-
markable countries on the globe, a
country once rich and pOpulous and
powerful, but like every other land
that has suffered the curse Of Turkish
rule, now desonte. There was u time
when the Armenians numbered ut
least 25,000,000 population, but now
1t is estimated that not more than
100000 remain in their native and
well-beloved land, while 100000 or
4000,000 more are wanderers to and
fro over the earth, sober, Industrious
economical citizens Of many lands and
Well-t0-d0 in every country but their
own, They would do well there also
We're II not for the Turks. The Otto
man Empire has proved itself in mod
crn times, as the Persian in ancient, n
national curse, Il sore, IN ulcer among
nations; it has been said of the Persian
State that of all the nations over which
it gained control not one ever raised
its head again, and the statement Is al
most literally true Far more fortunate
have been the States that have suffer
ed the blight Of Turkish rule. One by
Z we they have risen in rebellion and
AVE shaken off the Ottoman yoke.

ages of no mean order. The tablelands
are not of uniform height, and on their
various terraces the products of any
country on the globe may be raised,
from the dates Of Arabia to the oats

otherwise wealthy besides, for there
are mines Of gold, silver and several
other metals, while coal is abundant

hope of the inhabitants.

certain that after the, products of his

ing if they do not also take his life. In.
stances have been known of farmers
who raised Il hundred bushels Of grain
and saw eighty-hve bushels carried off
under the name of taxes, to feed Il
rapaciOus soldiery. Under such cir
cumstances, the people have no incen-
tive to industry, and so Armenia. like
every other Turkish province, is gradu-
ally wasting away; the industrious and
economical portion of the population
are leaving as fast rs they can, and this
remarkable region will soon be desc
late.
The inhabitants are not all Armeni-
ans; in fact, the Armenians now form
only a small fraction of the population
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1895-01-10

TO do them justice, however, the
Christians, so called, of Armenia, are
not much better than their Turkish
and Kurdish neighbors. They have
been hardened and brutalized by ages
Of oppression and suffering; they re-
gard the Turks as their natural enc
mics, and are just as ready to fight the
Ottomnns as the latter are to fight
them. Unfortunately for the Chris
tians, however, they are hopelessly in
the minority, and so from time to time
the world is shocked with these nara
tives of Turkish atrocity. In cold fact,
there is very little choice between
Christian and Moslem in that part of
the world, and the swarms of wander
ing bandits sometimes consist of both
Christians and MOslems, who rob both
parties with strictest impartiality.
The cities of Armenia are not very
numerous nor very populous, neither
are they very prosperous. The best
among them are Kars, that has stood
more than one historic siege from both
Russians and Turks; Erivan, q for
tress from Roman days, and the capt
tai Of one province; Erzeroum, which
once boosted population of 100000,
but now has hardly more than 10000,
if so many, the reason Of the decline
being the same as that for the depres-
sion in every other part of the COun-
try, Erzeroum, the seat Of the Turk
ish Pasha who miSgOverns the country,
is well fortified after an Oriental fash
ion, having great massive walls that
have been neglected until they are
ready to fall down of their own ac-
cord, big wooden gates covered with
plates Of iron, closed every night at an
hour after shutdown, when belated
travellers are supposed to be com
PEELED TO remain outside, which, in fact,
however, they rarely do, but simply
walk along the wall until they find u
place where it has fallen down enough
to enable them to climb over and then
enter and go about their business. Err
zeroum was once II city of grand pro-
portions and great commercial con
sequence, but its glory has departed
Situated as it is on the high road be-
tween Teheran and Mecca, the annual
caravans of pilgrims from Persia
Afghanistan and India all pass through
it, but in greatly diminished numbers
from those Of former years. The In
dim pilgrims now go by steamer
through the Red Sea, so do not Il few
from Beluchistan and Persia, and only
Il few from the interior now pass

Music and Science.

Sir Charles Lyell, that devOut man of
science, used to say that he liked music,
for IT allowed him to so on thinking his
own thoughts. SO it evidently did for
Frances Power Cobbe writes of him
that, at a great musical party, he sat
beside her and COnversed thus in every
interval in the music of MendelssOhn
and Handel:
"Agassiz has made discovery. l
cant sleep for thinking of 1t. He finds
traces of the glaciers in tropical Amer
lea"
Here interviewed sacred song, but ut
the moment it was ended he began, as
if he had not once taken his mind from
the class of subjects he loved most:
"Well, as | was saying, you know
1000 years ago the eccentricity of the
earth's orbit was at one Of it's maxi
mum periods and we were 100000
miles farther from the sun in winter,
and the cold of those winters must
have been intense, because heat varies,
not according to direct ratio but the
squares Of the distances"
We'll" said Miss Cobbc, then the
summers were as much hOtter?
Here came sacred song, and with
its last note Sir Charles began again:
mo, the summers weren't. They
couldn't have conquered the cold"
"Then you think the astronomical
100000 years correspondent with the
glacial period? Is that time enough for
all the strata SinceY
(AnOther selection from IIandelI
Il don't know. Perhaps we must 80
back still farther"
And so the strange medley of astron-
omy and music continued. II was easy
to see which was Sir Charles darling!

and everywhere savage dogs so to and

for the offal that Is east out Of the doors

But there is hope for Armenia. A
brave people like the natives Of this his
toric land can not always be kept in
subsection TO Il degenerate race Of
thieves and murderers like the Turks.
The incompetence Of the latter to gov
ern anything has been so plainly shown
for II century and half that the world
has ceased to expect anything from the
Ottoman power. But for the half
crazy fear that the English display
whenever anybody raises the cry Of
Russian wolf, Armenia would long ago
have been delivered from the rule OF
the Turk. Twice in the present cen
fury has Russia been ready to occupy
the whole province, and twice has the
deliverance Of Armenia been postponed
by the trlckery Of British politics and
diplomacy. 1t Is true that in being
placed in Russian territory the Ar
menians would merely exchange one
master for another, but experience has
shown that while the Gar Is Il hard
master, he is more tolerant than the
Sultan.

Shoes and How to Keep Them.
If you would have your shoes retain
their pristine freshness longer than
week do not treat them with pollshes
and dressings, each one Of which
claims to be the best and least lnjurI-
Gus As soon as you come In from IL
walk dust them carefully with soft
flannel kept for that purpose, Let
them mir, as you do your underclothes,
and when they are dry stuff them with
soft tissue paper; button or lace them
over this In this way they will keep
their shape for II long time, When they
are so worn that they must be bright
ened rub them with Il flannel cloth and
Il little vasclinc, Apply the grease
carefully, not merely smearing It over
the surface of the leather, but rubbing
it in, When It Is completely absorbed
rub briskly with fresh flannel, Do not
wear your walking shoes in the house,
and do not walk in your slippers. Keep
a pair of shoes suitable for each occa-
sion. In this way, though you may
seem to have an eXtravagant supply,
you will be really displaying an econ
omlcal spirit. Shoes worn indoors and
out not only soon lose their brightness
and neatncss, but last only about one

day took up this self-same topic for dis

this policy might do for some men, but
that there We're certain masculine in

keep In ignorance than to give to them

transpired during the day. Now, this
conclusion did not in any way indicate
that the actions mentioned were such
that the women would be ashamed to
confess, but what might be passed over

with Il fr0wn and rebuke at another.

perhaps, in no very long time, the Ar
meninns will be as free as the Greeks
or Bulgarians are to-day.
1t is a singular land, that in which
the fight for liberty is now being
waged under such fearful odds. 1t is
Il land so old in history that the earliest
legenGs of the human race point to
it us the first home of mankind, and
so far do the sober facts Of history
confirm the wild fancies Of legend
that historian, scientist and myth
gathcrer all unite in the belief that
somewhere in the region now general
ly designated as Armenia, the human
race first began that process of migra-
ton and development that has led to
the peOpling of every corner of the
earth. The Garden of Paradise was
in Armenia Adam was an Armenian
so was Noah, for his ark rested on
Ararat, where, according Unpopular ira
dition, it remains to this day, having
been seen, or at least reported to be
seen, by two or three different travel
ers. From Armenia began the disper-
sion of the nations, and all the legends
OF the early days point the finger back
toward that singular land at the head
waters of the Euphrates and Tigris as
the home Of every nation that preserv-
ell a memcry of it's own origin.
The limits of Armenia proper are by
no means accurately determined, for at
different times the country has been
under many different governments, and
even at present, it is divided between
Turkey, Russia and Persia, and the
boundary lines form never-ceasing
source of dispute between these three
powers. The truth is that Armenia
really has no boundaries worth the

TO Reduce Flesh.

An authority on foods prescrlbes for
those women who take little exercise
and accumulate flesh rapidly green
vegetables growing above the ground,
like peas, spinach, and asparagus, and
plain green salads, unmixed with pOul-
try, meat, or fish, such as lettuce, celery
and crosses, with a French dressing.
Very little starchy food and white
meats should be eaten, as chicken
lamb, or mutton, but there should be
consumed a great deal of fruit, toast
and whole wheat bread Avoid sweets,
it is further advised, and use few
stimulants, the best being Sauternc
and Rhine wine In moderation. For
brain workers the same authority ad-
vised red meats, particularly beef, with
starchy foods taken in the form of rice
and whole wheat bread, all green veg
etables that grow above the ground,
green salads every day, with French
