Several of the great educational insti

the first time in their history, classes fol
sewing as one of their chief attractions .
writes Edward w. Box in the Ladies
Home Journal. THE girls of the fash.
ionable world are joining Sewing after.
Moons, as they are called. Common sense
has come to the rescue in pointing out tc
girls that sewing Is an art, and one OF
the finest of accomplishments. In Older
times, the needle was the pride of the
clever maid; none was prouder than she
who, with her own hands, could fashion
her own dainty lingerie. The modern girl
in taking up her sewing, only comes back
to first principles to which she is return
ing, and she will find them So 1t is a
small thing which sometimes causes q
revolution, and the needle, small as IL is
by a general adoption can do much to
elevate American girlhood to a pinnacle
OF usefulness which will win for her ad-
mlration the world over. So essentially
feminine an art should never be allowed
to die out, and when its possibilities. ar
tistic and useful, are better understood
by our girls, their own pride will keep it
in its proper place, among woman's high
est arts and truest accomplishments"
In England 1853 divorces were granted in
the year 1895 on the application of hus-
bands, and only 22O on the application of
wives. An English paper is moved by these
figures to remark: 1T seems as though
woman is at heart rake and as an entity
more immoral than man." In America
says the Boston Woman's Journal where
about two thirds of the divorces
are granted on account of the
unfaithfulness or other misconduct
on the part of husbands. the
anti-woman party complain that womer
are chiefly to blame for 'the divorce evil. -
because more women than men applv for
divorces. In England, where more mer
apply than women, the anti-women party
draw the astonishing inference that wives
are more often unfaithful than husbands
The simple fact is, adds the Journal, thai
under English law unfaithfulness on the
part of the wife entities the husband to a
divorce. but unfaithfulness on the part OF
the husband does not entitle the wife tc
one unless extreme cruelty can be proved
in addition. This inequality in the law Is
quite sufficient of itself to explain the dis.
parity in the number Of divorces granted
to husbands and wives in England
The Autumn's Pathos-
There's pathos in each autumn scene
OF crimson show or yellow sheen.
OF tangled copse of bush and brier
BY sylvan lakes, the naiad's well.
Where swings the goldenrod's pale fire,
Flambeaus that CLEAN the dusky dell
When earth hath lost its green.
Along the fallow fields, dead eyes
OF daisies stare up at the skies;
A tuft of blood-red plumage seems
The ruby-beaded sumachs crest
And gold the bois dare orange CLEANS
Out through the hedge in yellow drest.
When vanquished summer flies.
Of some dark deed of some bold Kate
BY night the green cicadas pirate,
And weirdly shrill the crIckets call
Across the bronzing fields Is heard.
While perohed upon an elm tree tall
Lone pipes melancholy bird
A requiem for its mate.
The frost-king steal the roses blush,
And lends the leaf a livid flush
That trembling to the osler cllngs,
And over hight and over dale,
On silent, soft and airy wings.
The blue haze broods an azure vail.
In melancholy hush.
The frost-smit flowers fade and fall
In silence by the garden wall;
The river chants a solemn rune
A hectic flush is on the vines;
In minor tones, a mournful tune,
The wailing wind sings In the pines,
For death is over all
VIII N. Denton.
A New York mother, who is as devoted
to the nursery as she Is to her club. de-
votes much time to the planning of ar.
tistic nursery repasts, and no social func-
ton over which she presides herself dem
onstrates more clearly the aesthetic taste
of the hostess than do the juvenile lunch
cons and teas, dinners and breakfasts that
are prepared for her children in their own
domain.
Luncheon and dinner begin with boul-
lion, served in dainty cups, with little
sticks of bread tied together with ribbon
and representing a bunch of faggots.
There are desserts made of cornstarch,
blanc mango, formed into tiny chickens
and ducks, or flowers and fruits; some
times strawberry color then again vel
low or green or chocolate color The lit
tie guests never know what is coming,
and the delights and surprises are a tonic
to an appetite. The dishes are all minla-
ture affairs. where II is possible, and ev-

desire to keep in a thrifty condition, in or
der that 1t may adorn the table fifty.
on holidays and birthdays there are ap-
propriate little surprises prepared for
them, and in their dainty repasts a clever
mother finds a field for much originality,
which is amusing and gratifying TO her
and instructive 10 the children.
There is a passage of scripture which
reads THE upright man is stable IN all
his ways" writes Jennie Chandler in the
Diutic and Hygienic Gazette. This no
doubt applies to women as well as to men.
1t may be said that it refers to moral up
rightness, rather than physical but may
just as well apply 10 the latter. There
are many things in tho lives of women
which tend to develop carriage of the
body anything but upright. Girls who
