SUBJECT or the discussion. That did not
take much time, however, and the writer
went on 70 tell of the small BOY who dock

had seen the horses behind which his
mamma drove treated with the same in
dignity, which brought her to the subject
In which she was really interested, and
she became earnest and enthusiastic
Mothers" she said, do you realize
when your sons enter the laboratories of
our medical Institutions what that
means? Do you desire your sons to
come forth with their hands deep dyed
In innocent blood? This crime of vivisec-
ton has gone beyond the belief of human
beings only that over the signatures of
these eXperimenters fun accounts of
sickening deeds are recorded. The horri-
bic brutality of the Spanish bullhghts
pare in comparison with these" Then fol-
lowed a quotation from a prominent anti

we want our sons and daughters to obtain
doubtful knowledge of such a sacrifice?"
Ihat closed the paper on child-life and
philanthropy, but an undistinguished guest
from Chicago still preserved an attitude of
attention as if she expected more.
Excuse me- she said to a neighbor
but did 1 understand that the subject
OF the paper was child life?'" why,
yes said the questioned Sorosian in some

Excuse me-" she said again, a little
tlmidly, do the children take up Vivi-
section in the schools here?" "Why, no,
indeed answered the Sorosian in a tone
of surprised amusement. The Chicago wo-
man waited little longer this time. She
was evidently thinking.
II am sorry to trouble you." she per-
sisted, but did l understand them to say
that philanthropy was the subject for

the Sorosian somewhat curtly, for the next
speaker was reading her paper, and the
Chicago woman subs.ded, but still with a
puzzled expression on her face.
II should hardly think Mrs. Gay would
care to go to such a quiet town as A

1T is the most dead-and-alive sort of a
place-absolutely nothing TO do and nobody
to see. For a woman who lives for society
in the winter, like Clara Gay, it is incom-

New York Tribune. at is her beauty rest
for the winter. She brushes out her crimps
and lets her hair grow. She takes lot Of
exercise to reduce her avoirdupois, and she
leads most regular life for the sake of
her complexion. OF course otherwise she
would not stand it for a week. but her
high sense of duty TO herself sustains her
and result will be highly satisfactory. She
will look ten times better next season than
those who do the season at Newport and
the other watering-places every year, so
it certainly pays her if she is willing to
pay the price. Besides, she keeps up a mild
excitement too, by designing and making
clothes for the winter. She takes a good
dress-maker and plenty of materials to the
country with her, and imports few mod
els as designs for the coming winter, as
well as the latest French fashion books,
the combined result being as you have
seen.
This combination of rest-cure for
mind, body and natures embellishments is
not unusual
Why, what are you doing here?' in
quired one fashionable woman of another,
whom she met at a primitive little seaside
town.
"'Oh, I just come here and wear loose
clothes and be comfortable was the an

question of YOU
"'Oh, I? Well to tell the truth, I will
be equally frank. I suffer very much with
my feet, and l just wanted to go some

On a Tandem
On a sunny day they wheeled away
Away from the noisy street,
And their tandem drove through a quiet
grove,
Where lovers were wont to meet
"Oh. my love-" he said as he turned his
head
To gaze in her dropping eyes,
IF you'n go through life thus as my wife,
1t will be earth's greatest prize"
Il will" she cries, with love-lt eyes,
AS her arms about him steal,
With head low bent, "if you will consent
To let me select the wheel"

DR.. Wendell c. Phillips, says the New
York Times, talked to the members of the
Rainy Day Club on Wednesday, and told
his auditors that there was as much dan
ger in dressing too warmly as In wearing
too thin clothes. He told of a boy with
whom he went to the district school in
youthful days. The bow was one of those
who wore the old-fashIoned comfortable.
He had several yards of it wrapped around
and around his throat, and in spite of it
or because of It, as the doctor said, he
was continually suffering from colds and
catarrh. This is a temperate climate, and
we must dress for it. DR.. Phillips has a
great deal of sympathy for the little chill
dren he sees in the streets in arms and

days suffering from heat and with no
means of helping themselves. Harden the
children" he says, ''even take some little
risk in doing so. Don't keep the children in
because it is cloudy; let them go out be-
tween showers, and they win be all the

But the feet Of both women and children
should be we'll protecte ted; colds are more
often taken from unprotected feet and an

are careless about this. They swathe their
necks and bodies in over-warm garments
and inadequately clothe the feet. They
should wear nearly as heavy boots as the
men. calfskin, and have two pairs, to be
worn on alternate days, and the result
will be a great saving in health and shoe
