women are often rich, well educated
and of marked beauty. Even in other
sections where females do not possess
equal advantages beauty is not so rare
among them as TO be q subject of COM
ment Compared with the men the SUI
periority of the women Of the Philip-
pine islands is noteworthy. They show
1t III their faces and manners, and the
difference is still more marked in their
speech. They are as a rule modest, in
dustrious, eager TO acquire knowledge
and make excellent wives and house
servants. They are almost invariably
expert with the needle, display fine ar.
ustlo taste and learn music with re-
markable facility.
Some years ago sewing machines
were introduced into the islands, and in
short time the native women learned
to run them as we'll as their white sis.

from a. IN. to about p. m Large
numbers of the native women work al
so in the tobacco factories and other
manufacturing establishments. while
many occupy themselves at home by
making toys fancy articles and en-
broidery for the shops.
Some Of those articles give evidence
of wonderful delicacy Of touch, as also
of artistic taste, which place. them on

Even the best educated and wealtbiest

| distinctions
The Women's National Relief asso-
citation, organized since the war began,
is already one of the strongest OF the
various societies originated for the bene
fit of the United States soldiers. The
recent election Of Mrs. Ellen Hardin
Walworth as director general of the or
ganization called Mrs. Daniel Butter
field TO the position of chairman, and
Mrs Charles H. Raymond became treas
urer. The latter was the first president
of the Red Cross hospital. The member
ship includes the names of many ladies
we'll known throughout the country, one
of the latest additions being Miss Helen
Gould, whose gift of 500, 900 to the
president for war purposes is still fresh
in the minds of the people.
The Little Men and Women of '76,
an organization of children founded
last October, has become an auxiliary
of the Women & National Relief associa-
ton, and other societies composed of
both adults and boys and girls have
thrown in their influence with the or
ganization.
Miss Mary Low Dickinson has been
intrusted with the work of enlisting the
sympathies of the National Society of
Kings Daughters i'll the good work of
the above organization, and Mrs. George
Bartholomew will agitate the matter i'll
the public schools.
The organization referred to at great
er length and those others incidentally
noticed are, however, but fraction of
the numbers all over the country insti-
tuted by patriotic women to meet the
needs of the emergent and serious cir
now prevailing. In fact, SO
far as patriotic fervor is concerned, it
is quite possible that the women of the
are more thoroughly imbued
and animated with it than the male /,
portion of the population. Precluded,
however, as they are from active serv-
Ice in the army and navy, they are do
ing all they possibly can to rob war of
some of its worst horrors to those who

one of them as the train left the Fiftieth

OF his companions and the astonishmcnt
