Social Settlement Work.

All philanthropic people the world
ever, who are studying problems for
the prevention of poverty as we'll as
its relief, will be interested in the
leading article in Demorest's Magazine
for August, which takes as its theme
"Hull House," the center of that
beautiful social settlement work in
augurated in Chicago by Miss Jane
Adams. The article is very fully
illustrated and gives valuable informa-
ton concerning the class and club
work, with their endless qualifications
and beneficent influence, which have
extended far beyond the most san
guine hopes of the founders.
"The fury of the Winds is another
article filled with graphic illustrations
of recent storms which have devastat-
ed the West; timely article, interest
ing to all Americans, whether they are
partisans or not, is ga Study of Major
Mckinley" fully illustrated, which
gives face-to-face view of the pres
idential candidate in his pleasant
home; other entertaining topics are
"Notable Women of Atlanta, Geor-
gia, "-illustrated with photographs of
beautiful women,-and ike Marvel
at Home, which almost against that
genial writer's wishes, gives a glimpse
of Donald G.. Mitchell in his daily
life. Woman's influence upon pa
triotism is discussed by several we'll
known New York women; and "a
Glimpse of Wellesley" shows us one
of the centres where the women who
will mould opinion in the future are
being trained to exercise it wisely.
The several departments are full of
good things, and "Sanitarian" discuss
es "Summer Care of Babies, giving
helpful hints to young mothers, as
| well as to older ones with bad habits.
The Fashion Review and illustrations
| of midsummer modes are unusually
attractive and suggestive, and every
one who has ever used the patterns
given with this magazine knows their
intrinsic value and how practical they
are. Every number of Demorest's
contains o Pattern Order which entities
| the holder to reliable and modish pat
terms at merely nominal COST The
patterns that can be obtained during n
year on the Orders given would, if
purchased in the regular way, cost at
least from $50 to $50.
Everyone who will take the trouble
to cut out this notice and forward it,

will receive sample copy of Demo-
rests Magazine, containing a Pattern
Order which entities the holder to any
