ES The Grand Ma.

Es- The Grand Master Workman
of New York, referring to the sub
iect of classified assessments in his
report to the Grand lodge, says:
1.-The plan has fulfilled every promise
made tor it by it's early supporters.
Wherever work has been done good
results have followed. Our records
show that the average age of the
new members taken in during the
year past is less than thirty-two (32l
years. This has been made possible
by the classified assessment system.
The plan * all right; work only is
needed and continued success is
certain. 1t rests with the brothers.
l believe they are awake to the
necessity of the hour, and the great
Empire State will in the near future,
under the operations of this plan,
stand at the head of all the jurisdic-
tions in our grand old Order"

~ The Grand Lodge of Michigan
at its session held at Grand Rapids
on the 18th of March this year adopt
ed the classified plan. The Brothers
in Michigan did not know a good
thing when they saw it, therefore at
the Grand Lodge session last year a
committee was appointed TO investi-
gate the plan and report this year.
The committee did investigate and a
ajority reported in favor of the
change. The report was debated for
two days and the majority report
was finally adopted 49, I5o lodges
voting in favor of and 23 lodges
against the change. The new plan
goes into effect April Ist this year.
Funds were raised to carry on an
energetic recruiting for the Order
and Michigan, which has lost heavily
during the last year, will be found
in the gaining column this year, no
doubt.

1t is one of the weaknesses Of many
nice girls that they do not feel sure
enough of themselves in taking up en-
ployment outside their homes, but they
must needs offer some excuse Or reiterate
the fact that they are accustomed to
something better. 1t is a weakness
which brings them little credit from
their confidants A girl entering q
school for typewriting and steuography
was asked by the other students why
she had come to the school. Are you

Glass Hats and Bonnets.

In contrast to the effects secured by
the use of turs, and as more in keeping
with freaks Of the mercury at their ad-
vent, were the glass hats and bonnets
which were brought out last month.
These absolutely transparent headdress-
cs are among the most decided novelties
which have ever appeared in our mil
linery market, and while glass was the
substantial material, MS in the case Of
the cloth woven in Venice Of spun glass,
may seem doubtful, the effect is as Of

cavil at the term applied or to question

crown medium tall and slightly taper
ing, has tho brim formed Of leaflike
pieces Of the glass, terminating in o

close tucked ruching Of chiffon i'm deli
cate rose pink, the ruchinp edging the
brim and the crown, galloon of pail
lettes in tones of rose color encircling
the crown and double Amazon ostrich
plume i'll pink sweeping from each side

A glass bonnet is made Of three
pieces, which joined form diamond,
the greater width passing across the
head from side to side, and each point
curled back, the effect of the shape be-
ing after that of the Dutch bonnets.
The pieces are Joined under narrow pas

woman's Right to He Ugly.

Beauty and the Beast; or, A Wom
ans Right to Bo Ugly, was the title Of
a paper read by Mrs. Celia B. White
head before the Rainy Day club of New
York recently.
81 heard man say the other day
that woman's dress is as inartistic as il
is undesirable, the speaker began,
"and it is an indisputable fact that wo-
men are dissatisfied with the clothing
imposed by fashion in civilized coun-
tries The vast majority of women who
are doing somc useful work in the world
are crying out more and more against
it.
"Ncw willis there is little dissent
from the statement that beauty is de.
sirable quality in women's clothing, it
is true that if we have usefulness in
dress it will llOssom into beauty.
1.-THE beast would never have been
beautiful If he had not first been accept
ed for his goodness, so it il my belief
that woman's dress will never be beau.

"Shall not we, my dear Rainy Day.
sizes. learn lesson from the fable? Let
us find dress adapted to our wants and
let the question of beauty remain un-
answered until the more important and
fundamental points have been attended
to.
"But has won an right to be ugly;
Is beauty her transcendent duty, and is
beauty matter of dress?'' Then with
scorn: what an ignoble scramble J. G..
Holland has set women by saying, No
wife should allow any woman to appear
better dressed in her husbands eyes
than herself He didn't state by what
means wife should prevent the other
woman. Think Of the awful strain!
"There is Judge Tourgee, too, who
thinks about the same. He talked to the
girls of Mount Holyoke ON the immense
influence personal adornment had to.
ward the charm Of woman's manner.
Both men emphasize that it is the duty
of woman to be beautiful or beautifully
dressed, but firmly believe in woman's
right to he ugly at certain times and
places and under certain circumstances.
~ can't prove it, nor can l prove
that woman has soul, but / believe
both. ="
Her final advice was
'Let woman devise dress that will
not hinder her from becoming strong
wise, grand and good. Let it be ever so
much of beast ut first, beauty will
finally marry it. and they'll live happy
ever after.

A Famous Training Nurse,

Miss Linda Richards, who recently
resigned frorI the superintendency of
the training school Of Hartford hospital,
has just gone to Philadelphia to take
charge of the University of Pennsylva-
mia Medical College Hospital Training
school.
Miss Richards has probably had the
broadcast experience of any woman III
the United States in establishing train
ing Schools both i'll this and other
lands. She was graduated from the
New England Hospital Training School
For Nurses in 1878, with the first class
for nurses organized in this country
Immediately after her graduation she
was called upon to take charge of the
training school Of the Massachusetts
General hospital in Boston, where she
remained four years. At the end of that
time she resigned for the purpose of
making general foreign tour and
studying foreign hospital and training
school methods.
During this "trip she became acquaint.
ed with Florence Nightingale, the ia
nous founder of training schools for
nurses, and was greatly aided by her in
her Investigations, thus obtaining ad-
mission to many otherwise closed doors.
Upon her return to America she assist
ed in organizing the Boston City Hos
pital Training school, where she re.
nained in charge until 1884. The
American board of commissioners for
foreign missions (the Congregational
board) then secured her services and
she was sent to kioto, where she organ
lied the first training school for nurses
established in Japan. Her work there
was eminently successful, and as re-
suit there are now several excellent
training schools in that country.
Her health did not permit her to re-
main in Japan, and she returned to this
country, since which time she has been
connected with the Pennsylvania Hospi-
tai For the Insane, the Methodist Epis-
copal hospital of Philadelphia, the Vis-
iting Nurse society. the New England
hospital at Boston. the Homeopathic
hospital Of Boston and the Hartford
hospital. During the latter term she or

1t was in the fascinating study Of
family genenlogy, seeing that her family
tree grew straight and true, that Miss
Koues became spccially interested in
American history and well posted in it.
She became one of the competitors when
ship to it's members. The examination
was conducted by Professor Herbert l..
Osgood of Columbia university, who
last June mailed list of books, which
would be the basis of the examination,
to each member of the chapter. Nine
questions were asked at the examination,
and the answers, which were made in
writing, were handed in at the end Of
three hours. The questions were search
ing, extending far back into the history
of England. Professor Osgood has charge
of tho course of study, which is for two
years, and the student will receive q
certificate at the close il the examina-
tions are successfully passed. The course
is equivalent to the Junior and senior
years in the samo study ut Columbia.
The scholarship was named for Mrs.
Donald Mclean, regent of the New
York city chapter of the Daughters Of
the Amcri' ~ i,cvolution, as it was
founded ut her IL rIation. Her idea is
that tho schclnrr' is not only valuable

Girl Students at Home.

In a tiny new house in the northeast.
ern section Of the city charming set of
college girls have taken up their abode
for the winter They are all Johns Hop
kins medical students, two having en-
tered this year, the others having spent
their first winter in Baltimore last year.
Not caring for the homeless life of q
boarding house, they decided to try the
experiment of keeping house for them
selves and SO far the experiment has
been most pleasing success.
The leading spirit of this little CO.
terie is Miss Margaret Long, the eldest
daughter Of the secretary of the navy.
Her chum at Smith college, Miss Reed,
IL with her, and the other members Of
the quartet are Miss Simis of the class
Of '07 Of Cornell and Miss Austin, Il
member Of the class Of "a Of the Uni
vorsity Of Minnesota. The girls are for
tunate in having for their ohaperon
Mrs. Reed from Leyden, N. y, and
Miss Hawley, who relieve the students
from planning how the house shall be
carried ON.
Each Of the girls has her own room
furnished in her own pet fashion. The
most Of the furniture i'll the house has
some pleasant association connected
with it through its having been part of
QUE or another Of the girls rooms while
ct college. The Smith college flag has

Reed have contributed most of the CHI

Longs home at bingham, Mass, is
closed for the winter, and so is Miss
Reeds in the Adirondacks at eyden,
N. Y. The home china closets have
been robbed of some of their choicest
contents to adorn the table of this de-
liphttul little home The dainty china
tnd the homo cooking are two features
which contribute very largely to the
happiness of the girls.
The prevailing tones of the parlor
drapeTies and furnishings are olive and
