New Work for rIuslcal Women.

A young girl who is studying with
one of the best-known pianists has hit
upon a plan to perfect herself in meth
DDS of teaching by going from house to
house and supervising the praCticing Of
her teachers younger pupils. She is a
sort of travelling musical gOverness.
This is not only great help to her in
her musical studies, but also great
advantage to the beginners and to their
parents. The great burden of respon-
sibility for musical progress Of their
children rests upon the parents For,
no matter how great the teacher he
cannot enforce practicing when he is
absent.
Many parents do not understand mus
sic, and so do not know whether their
children are practicing the music cor
rectly or not. In the latter case they
are perhaps acquiring habits which will
Tetard their musical progress. And so
the student governess has found a
niche which has been waiting for her
for some time.-New York Sun.

The Rest Habit.

We hear a great deal, now days, about
the new woman, what she has done and
what glorious possibilities are before
her. We wonder if she has learned the
habit of rest, that medicine for mind
as well as body. II women could but
realize what rest means to their happi-
ness as well as their health the worry
habit would be the exception and not
the rule. Just so much as we overcome
this killing habit just SO much more
faith we put in God, and as faith in God
means a richer conception of life is II
not worth striving for? We cannot run
the universe; leave that to God and let
us do we'll the share he has given us
to do. We are living in stirring times,
and while we may not grid on the
sword and go forth to glorious battle
fields, yet we must not forget that
"They also serve who stand and wait"
Let us keep before us the two simple
words, don't worry" and so instill
them into our minds that we can't
worry. We will have learned then the
lesson of patience, Of endurance, Of
contentment and of rest.

A Glimpse at the Omaha Exposition

A Glimpse at the Omaha Exposition.
It may be of interest to the stay-at
home woman to know little of the
work done by women at the Omaha ex-
position. They have no WOman's build
ing, the failure of such an undertaking
at the Worlds Fair has taught the wo-
men of Nebraska that there is better
way.
There executive ability and artistic
taste may be seen in many places, and
they are wise in not limiting themselves
to one building. We find a good de-
scription of some of the places made
attractive by women in Harper's Bazaar,
which says: "The Woman's Club of
this city stands as hostess for the edu
cational and religious congresses which
meet during it's progress. It's members
keep open house at the club house in
the city, where all visiting club women
are most cordially welcomed" Forty
of the women have put their best efforts
forth to make a place for rest and en-
tertainment; to those who visited the
Columbian exposition no explanation
will be needed to recommend this to
them. These forty women have fitted
up in the balcony of the Mines and Min
ing building a drawing room that Is
most spacious and artistic. A visitor
last month was shown the then vacant
gallery on the opposite side Of the build
ing, in its barren and apparently i'm
possible state, before she was taken
across the hall into the fairyland evolved
from similar emptiness by the council
of forty.
I'm this lovely apartment the ladies of
the committee take turns in being at
home. The idea Of hospitality is the
true Biblical one
1t is not merely waiting in their beau
tiful corner to be found out, but of
keeping ladies out through the exposi-
tion spaces, in the lanes and by-ways,
as it were, in quest of women who may
like to loiter over a cup Of tea or lem
onade with them. After wandering
about the grounds in the dazzling sun
light, which seems Omaha's continual
privilege, the relief of this cool, rest
full haven, its luxurious chairs and di-
vans whose cushions invite grateful re-
pose, and the graceful ministfations of
attentive hostesses, may be easily i'm
agined though not fully appreciated
until enjoyed.

The Cosy Corner.

The cosy corner is dear to every wo.
mans heart, and now no home is con-
sidered quite complete unless it has one.
1t requires but little thought and work
to create one Of these charming places;
it is just as possible to have one on the
farm home as the city one; indeed the
farm woman has the advantage all on
her side; she has the space out of doors
for her cosy corner, and if she is near
a stream of water she has all she
could wish for. One can be made with
very little expense, or perhaps with none
at all. One would need few sofa pill
lows, an old couch or hammock, one
or two easy chairs and small table.
Add to this several good books and sure
ly the cosy corner would be a most at
tractive place on a drowsy afternoon.
If the cosy corner is out of doors a
piece of tent canvas can be used to
make the spot very secluded and tea
table is in order at all times and at all
places.

Election of the inner life is on the outer

solemnly believe, to the mass Of those

Mrs. BOttome has not only touched
the keynote of what the Kings Daugh-
ters need, but it is also what we all
need whether professed Christians or
not.
It is the great need of our time, in

other almonds, halved, were set so as to

HELD A PATRIOTIC SERVICE
THIRD REGIMENT OF THE BOYS,
BRIGADE.

Grand Rally at Calvary Baptist Church
Yesterday Afternoons Spirited Adj
dresses by Rev. e. M. Foteat and Rev.
DR.. Gilbert.
The Third Connecticut regiment,
Boys Brigade, turned out 800 strong
to attend the patriotic service held in
their behalf at the Calvary Baptist
church yesterday. The we'll drilled and
uniformed companiesm made a very cred
table appearance. They are under the
command of Lieutenant Colonel H. A..
Beebe. The church was appropriately
decorated with flags. The order of SER
vice was as follows:
Organ prelude-H. d. Hodgson.
Duet-"Star Spangled Banner''-Misses
Grace Walker and Alice Lincoln.
Scripture lesson-Twenty- third psalm.
Prayer-Rev. w. w. McLane.
Singing Hymn" America"
Address-Rev. e. NJ. Poteat.
Singing-Battle Hymn of the Repub-
lie.
Address-Rev. Levi Gilbert
Singing-Hymn = Onward Christian
Soldiers"
Benediction.
The Rev. Mr.. Poteat spoke briefly,
exhorting the boys to avoid all ap-
pearance of evil and to be true to
themselves under all circumstances.
The Rev. DR.. Gilbert of the Trinity
M. E. church made a patriotic address.
which every boy ought to esteem
above all others: Home, country and
church.
You owe allegiance to the Stars and
Stripes, but there is another flag to
which you as truly owe your allie
glance 1t is the banner of our Lord
Jesus Christ. The Emperor Constan-
tine is said to have seen the banner
of the cross in the heavens with the
motto emblazoned upon which in Eng
lish means BY this sign conquer And
under that banner Constantine did
conquer. So may you boys by the sign
of this banner conquer. The first thing
a soldier does is to enlist. So should
you enlist in the service of Christ, not
for months or years, but for the war
as did the last volunteers of the civil
war. The next thing after enlisting
are the marching orders given by
Christ. Go we into all the world and
preach the gospel he said.
"A soldier needs to be armed In
former times he was armed with a
sword. To-day perhaps it would be
with a Maxim or Calling gun. The
Christians weapon is the word of God.
We might call it his Maxim or Calling
gun. Another essential quality of a
soldier Is obedience. You all know
how the Light Brigade, when ordered,
charged the battery at Balaklava, al
thought the order was foolish one
and its executionsresulted in the death
Of nearly all the soldiers in the brigade.
When the Maine was blown UP Cap
tain Sigsbee ordered the sailors to flood
the gun cotton, land they obeyed,
though they never returned Another
requisite is courage. We do not need
to go back far to Flook for an example
of heroism, for we have Dewey"
The speaker also urged the necessity
of vigilance, loyalty and confidence in
spired by a righteous cause.
