woMANs PRACTICAL TURN.


The latest way which women have
found of making themselves useful to
their own sex and ait the same time
earning a living takes a severely prac-
tical turn. says the New York sun.
Such methods as singing negro songs,
lecturing on architecture, or even
American history, dressing dinner ta-
bles and teaching whist, are eclipsed
as regards utility by the newest idea. IL
is teaching bookkeeping and superyis-
ing the wOmen's bank accounts. One
young woman, looking about for some
thing to do, happened to have taken a
course in bookkeeping at a business
college. and that was followed by a
brief business experience. She thought
OF imparting her knowledge to her own
sex. Women who kept bank accounts
and liked to have them in better order
than they were personally equal to
were delighted to pay the modest price
asked for her services. incidentally
they were able to learn just what they
should do, and the young woman has
succeeded in gaining a clientele that
makes her business highly profitable.
In addition to that branch OF her work
she teaches bookkeeping to several
classes whose members have taken to
the new accomplishment ais eagerly as
if it were diversion. The tendency OF
the newer emplOyments that women
are seeking is to rid their sisters who
have means of nearly all responsibility
To have the trouble of choosing theiI
own dresses has recently been lifted
from their shoulders, and now they are
able TO get somebody to look at theil
bank books and tell them just how
much money they have. The next in
vader OF the field Of relieving women Of
means from all responsibility will have
to undertake the final task Of spending
their money for them.

USES OF THE VIOLET.

The violet is, perhaps, the favorAe
flower of more than One-half the people
of this great universe, and, in view, Of
this, it is interesting to know to what
use the beautiful blossoms may be put.
According to an old belief, violets
soaked in rain water make an excel
lent wash for the skin. What says the
Gaelic? "Anoint thy face with goats
milk. in which violets have been soak
ed, and there is not a young prince on
earth who would not be charmed with
thy beauty" AS a simple the violet
comfOrteth the heart, the leaves reduce
Inflammation; violet tea relieves fever;
syrup of violets is good for infiamma-
tion OF the lungs and breast, pleurisy,
coughs and ague in children For the
latter disease, eight or nine drops of
vitriol are put in an ounce of syrup Of
vio.ets; a teaspOonful is the dose; the
child gets well or dies.

PECULIAR SUSPENSION.

The MiddletOwn Transcript has pc
culiar method Of suspending judgment
1t suspends it by inuendo and sugges-
ton Of guilt, ais the following will
show
b. T. Cooper, Thomas S. Clark,
Charles II. Butler and Amos Cole, who
are accused with aiding w. N. Boggs
in looting the Dover Bank, waived a
hearing last Saturday and win appear
for trial April IL. Judgment in their
case should be suspended only guilt
less men are usually anxious for speedy
trial rather than for postponement.
The Transcript does not appear to
understand the situation. 1t was not
a trial which was waived, but merely a
preliminary hearing before the United
States commissioner. With charges OF
such grave character 1t was conceded
by everyone that Commissioner Smith
would not assume the responsibility of
dismissing the cases, no matter what
showing the defence might make. 1t
would be tco much to expect Of him.
This being true, it would have been but
waste of time and a showing Of hands
to have gone into a full hearing Of the
case nearly two months before court
met
The waving OF the preliminary hear
ing was in no manner an implied con-
fession OF guilt. It was rather an evil
dence of good sense on the part OF the
lawyers retained by the accused men
who prefer to receive their vindication
from the court. An innocent man
who rushes into legal hearing with
out being fully prepared to meet his
accusers at every point is assuming a
foolish risk
If the Transcript intends to suspend
judgment 1t should do it without reser.
vation, implication or imputation con.
corning the guilt OF the men accused.
