There are thousands of self-support-

in the United States. In New York
nlone there are 10000 professional wom-
en-, 100000 working girls and 9,7O0 stu
tents in art schools, conservatories and
colleges. These women, with the eX-
ception of the very few thousands who
live with friends or relatives, find their
only substitute for homes in second
rate boarding-houses. The average
working girl finds the only solution of
the home problem in the hall bedroom.

woman on the city's horizon, Philan-

of New York has been suggested or in

Idea of erecting a series of buildings,
handsome, spacious, comfortable and
practical, adapted to the requirements
of the working women of New York
Designs for the first four of the Sc

Art Students home, the Clubhouse and
the model tenement, are already COM
pleted. 1t is calculated that at least
two, if not the entire series, will be
we'll under way early in the spring.
The architects for this scheme of
women's buildings, which is the most
elaborate in the United States, if not
in the world, are Miss Mary Cannon
and Miss Alice Hands, partners, friends
and former pupils Of the New York
school of applied design. The faith
-fHi work, tireless energy, enthusiasm
and artistic skill which these young
women have brought to bear upon
their work in the past year alone is
something colossal.
The work throughout, in architec-
ural style and artistic interior finish,
is on the largest scale that has ever
been undertaken by women architects
in any country. From its inception

of women-women working for women.

Hopkins said, in speaking of this vast
scheme to a New York Journal reporter,

the hosts of working women that are

''When decided to put into operation

and submitted them to the students at

what / wanted, or what Mrs. Fred Van
derbilt might think sensible, or Mr..
Glider might approve. We might all
make good suggestions, but art stu
dents are to live in the building, and

so far as possible, wishes of the women
who are to occupy it.

Dr.. Clara Bliss Finley, of Washington,
is a daughter of the late DR.. Bliss, one
Of the surgeons in charge of Gen. Gar
fields case. DR.. Finley quoted the fol-
lowing statistics before convention of
insurance underwriters. She says the
claim made by insurance companies
that women between given ages are not
as safe risks as men is at variance with
statistics of the census, hospitals and
infrmaries. More male than female
children are born and more men than
women die between the ages of Is and
As. One physicians so years expert
ence showed a total of 1920 boys and
3,1S6 girls born. In England and Wales
women live about one year longer than
men. In London two or three years are
in the women's favor. In the census of
1870 the percentage of deaths per 1000
was: Male. 1892; female, 20.72. Our
own census in 1870 shows deaths be-
tween the ages of Is and As, men, 49,
SIS; women, 100. Of our immigrants
between these ages, men, 1,210,5S3;
women, 674,160. More men than women
die of nervous diseases. DR.. Finley adj
mits that the books of insurance COM
panies show that more insured women
than men die. She reported interviews
with 10 managers of large insurance
companies who. when asked if they re-
garded women as safe risks as men, re-
piled: "Yes, if women had as rigid
medical examinations" She therefore
contends that women in general are

How to Curl Feathers.

Feathers may easily be curled, if only
little time and care be devoted to
them. A simple process is as follows:
Have large kettle with steam pouring
put of the spout. Hold the feathers
In this steam for few moments, and
then with blunt knife preferably a
hetal paper cutter) curl each separate
plume, and when complete, hold the
leather in front of the fire TO keep the
stiffness in. Professional dressers do
little else, but, of course. they are more
expert than a mere amateur.

The attention OF parents and teachers is call

The provisions of the Act include all schools,

the United States in a far greater number OF

Springfield, Ills, August 6.-At to-
days session Of the State miners con-
vention a resolution to invite Gov.
Tanner to address the convention
brought forth much talk unfavorable
to the Governor. State Secretary
Ryan, of Braidwood, and Vice Presi-
dent B. NJ. Hunter, Of Streator, en-
phatically refused to act on COM
mittee of three to wait on Gov. Tan
ner and invite him to address the
convention. The Governor, however,
was invited and delivered an address.
He said he was in sympathy with the
miners and believed they would win
the strike if they carried it on in a
law-abiding way, as they have been
doing. The Governor put himself on
record as willing to do all in his power
with Senators and citizens to assist
the miners in a satisfactory settle
ment. A resolution was passed that
a body of miners be sent to Decatur,
COffeen, Murphysboro, and four other
small mines and endeavOr TO get the
miners to suspend. Resolutions were
also passed to endeavor to organize
all miners now working and try to
get them out. President Carson re-
ported 1000 men working in the
