cradle enlargement of the liver in persons
noted for their very moderate but constant
drinking, who seemed the picture of health
while alive, but whose sudden aud unex-
pected death necessitdted a post mortem
inquiry.
In nursing, stouts and beers are especi-
ally pernicious. Their use has wrought
untold mischief to many mothers, and uu-
dermined the tender constitution OF a vast
multitude OF helpless and innocent infants.
l have said nothing whatever of the
damage resulting from beer-drinking to

tai and normal evil inseparable from the
general social use OF beer My warnings
are on purely scientific and dietlc grounds,
against steady, limited indulgence In such
liquors as are weakening to the system,
and invite gout, rheumatism, dyspepsia and
other unhealthy bodily conditions.
There is no call for us to drink beer, how
ever moderately. We can enjoy better
health without intoxicating drinks than
with them. Our Creator neither planted
longing for them, nor provided a supply
of them for our use. They are not, in the
true sense of the word, food. But
though they can do us little, If any, good,
they may do us much harm. Many are
killed by them, both for time and for
eternity, and even their continued moder-
ate use tends in the direction of loss of
health, lessening of strength and shorten
ing of life.
Let us ALL who desire to avoid gout,
rheumatism and dyspepsia, shun ale, beer,
porter, stout and all other kinds OF fer
mented and distilled liquors.

Our readers must have observed how
continuously in our editorials we have
urged upon temperance workers the i'm
portance OF assailing the fortress OF
moderate drinking and overthrowing that
stronghold as being the key to the situa-
tion. We are glad to see that Miss Willard,
In her address rs President at the National
w. G. 7. U. Convention, at Buffalo, called
attention to this strategic point in the battle
against alcohol. She said:
The supreme duty of the hour is to con-
vince the moderate drinker that he is doing
himself harm. II only this belief was gem
eral, men would soon become law unto
themselves to such degree that statutory
enactments would be but the outward ex-
preston OF an inward grace. Upon the
sullen fortress of moderate drinking the
artillery OF temperance reform must con-
centrate in future years. 1t has been an
incalculable gain to make drunkenness a
disgrace instead of an amable peculiarly,
as it was 100 years ago; or pardonable
peccadillo, as 1t was in the memory Of the
oldest tnhabitant; or a necessary evil as it
was a generation back. The forces that
have worked to this end are precisely the
same that must now be directed against
so-called moderation We must stoutly
maintain the position that there is no
moderation in the use of what is harmful.
Happily, in taking this position we have
great allies OF which the greatest is the
dictum of the modern sciences"

An Economical PrIncess.

Though always elegantly and per-
fectly dressed, the Princess of Wales
by no means errs ON the side of ex-
ravagance. Her Royal Highness has
been known to wear gown three sue
cessive seasons when it suited her,
and remained fresh and handsome.
For instance, at the opening of the
Peoples Palace at Whitechapel, the
Princess wore a striking jacket of
olive-green velvet, brocaded with
small ripe red strawberries.
There could be no mistaking so dis
tinctive a stuff, and it was recognized
by q woman who had seen the Princess
in Ireland two summers before, as one
that had been worn at several func.
tions in that country. The style had
been altered somewhat, but there was
the same splendid fabric doing its
thorough economical duty. Her Royal
Highnesss influence, too, has ever
been against excess in fashion. She
has always refused to patronize very
wide skirts, balloon-like sleeves or
huge overturned headgear.
When ordering new gowns, colored
pictures of them, back and front, as
they should look when finished, with
scraps of the proposed materials and
trimmings attached, are submitted for
the Princesss approval, and it is a
very usual occurrence for the Princess
to take her own brush or pencil and
alter the pictures TO please her excel
lent taste. The gowns are fitted on q
model of her own figure, and the work
women do not see her at all, unless
considerable alterations are necessary,

Turkish girls of the betterzclass in
the cities, after they are too old to at
tend the primary schools, are largely
educated at home by governesses,
many of whom come from England and
France, but. unfortunately, do not al
ways represent the highest culture of
these nations, so that the real love OF
study is not as a rule, developed un-
der their influence. Turkish women
have a great aptitude for foreign Ian
guages, and those met ON the steamers
of the Bosphorus often speak French,
and it is not unusual for them to
speak German and English also.
It is well-known fact that many
Turkish women are engaged in trade,
some even carrying on an extensive
business, involving frequent journeys
to Egypt and other places, which pre-
supposes the ability to read and write,
as well as some knowledge of arithme-
tic. Moreover, conversation with the
Mussulman woman in the capital re-
veals some progress at the present
time in independence of thought, and,
while social conditions have unavoida.
bly, arrested the development of Tur.
kish women as a class, forces are
slowly but surely working among them
that will result in their final emancipa.

II is an acknowledged fact that
great age is attained by women often
er than by men. One of the most
famous female centenarians was the
Countess of Desmond, who lived to be
145 years old, and died in the reign of
James I. from the effects of an acci-
dent, This wonderful woman found
herself, at the age 100, so lively and
strong as to be able to take part in q
dance; and when she was 140 she tray
eled from Bristol TO London-no tri-
fling journey in those days-in order
to attend personally to some business
affairs.
Lady Desmond is, however, quite
thrown in the shade by French wom-
an, Marie Prion, who died in st. Col
ombe, it is said, at the wonderful age
of 150 Toward the end of life she
lived exclusively on goats milk and
cheese. Although her body was so
shrunk that she weighed only forty-six
pounds, she retained all her mental
faculties to the last.
1t is an extraordinary but incontest-
ible fact that some women at the age
when most people die undergo a sort
of natural process of reiuvenation-
hair and teeth grow again, the wrinkles
disappear from the skin, and sight
and hearing reacquire their former
sharpness.
A Marquise de Mirabeau is an ex-
ample of this rare and remarkable
phenomenon. She died at the age OF
eighty-six, but few years before hel
death she became in appearance quite
young again. The same change hap
pened to a nun of the name of Mar
guerite Verdur, who, at the age o.
sixty-two, lost her wrinkles, regained
her sight and grew several new teeth
When she died, ten years later, hel
appearance was almost that of young
/ girl. New York Ledger.

Art Girls in Paris.

A young American, who, heaped
with honors, has just returned from
Paris, told me, greatly to my surprise,
that she thought it an idle and unwise
plan for girls to go abroad to study
art until they had been drilled into
the fundamental work at home.
She gave me ever so many reasons
for this, but that which seemed to her
the strongest, was the fact that Paris
is full of American women who, not
having had their abilities tested at
home, have gone there only to find
that years and years of uphill worl
lie before them, with no prospects at
the end For that which they thought
TO be talent in themselves has proved,
when taken to the other side, to be
but a fimsy affair not worth cultivat-
ing for bread-winning purposes.
With the poverty belonging to most
of these women, suffering is inevitable,
and this suffering, she argues. is best
endured at home, where the young
girl is near her family or her friends,
and where the many forms of compli-
Gated miseries incident to a life alone
in Paris are spared them-miseriei
easy TO endure and accepted without
question if success lie ahead, and one
is assured of possessing real talen
and power, but miseries that cut into
the soul of one and destroy the fine
