Revolution in Italy.

The recent bread riots in Italy
are believed to simply mutterings
before the storm. A great part of
their earnings is taken by the gov
erment. AS times 90 by the crisis
approaches, and the end is likely to
be the same as in the American rev.
omtion. Many men and women try
to do too much. They overtaX their
system as governments overtaX their
subjects. Then comes a breakdown.
The stomach, kidneys, liver and
nerves are affected, What is re-
quired is a medicine like Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters to restore tie
strength, and build up new and
healthy tissues, Any druggist will
supply it, and the sufferer will be
astonished after taking it to see
how quickly it acts.

.fi.s Ieiter,. Paper Grown.

That is very interesting story which
relates how Mrs. Curzon, when little
Miss Letter, was seen strutting up and
down a room wearing paper crown
while she remarked, II will be a queen
some day" The lady who tells the
story, says the Chicago Post, adds sig
Bificantly that ''niany truth is spoken
in jest" All of wsiich is undeniably
true but st the same time we have no
special reason TO believe that the pre-
dietion has been verified or is likely to
be verified CT that little Miss Mary
prophetically gave utterance TO spar
king truth. We suppose there has new
er been little girl in this delightful
city Of Chicago who has not al one time
or another adorned herself with paper
crown and announced that she was GO
ing to be a queen. Little girls have a
weakness for this sort Of thing, and yet
we have no recollection that any young
woman of cur town has ever ascended a
throne save for temporary and unim
portant purposes Somebody has said
that all American women are queens.
OF course not even the women them
selves believe such wild hyporb0le but
il is gallant remark, AID if it makes
them feel good for the tine being there
is 10 objection to TIE phrase. Let tie
little girls play with their pa per crowns
and utter their mock solemn predic-
tions, fer we are making history now
adays. and Cuba CT Hawaii or the Phil
ippines may yet ask for queen.

know what becomes of all the imported

can afford to buy them, and thoss peo-
PIE are the ones who can afford the
most expensive things uf all kinds, and
they import their own gowns or have
them made here by the best modistes,

gowns that every one has had chance
to see in a shop.
1.-The only thing 1 can think Of is
that these are actresses gowns, and
they possibly do not mind the public
having view OF them"
"You are not so very far wrong in
your general ideas, - said the man, with
a laugh, "but you are not quite right.
The gowns you see are imported, but
they are not actresses gowns. The firms
here import them and have the priv
ilege of keeping them for month or
Elk weeks. II they sell them. so much
the better, but if not, they return them
and get a new stock, and it is great

on, "and that is that all the swell

svraease,. CookInr school.

In the matter Of cooking schools Syra-
cuse puts forth a claim to distinction.
Ii is the only city in the country so far
as known where a cooking school has
been established and successfully con-
dne:ed which has for its basis the
equality Of mistress and maid. Both
classes are received as pupils, but the
school is no respeeter of persons, and
the mistress Of a mansion with a retiuue
of servants finds herself touching elbows
at the cooking school with Bridget from
her own kitchen and borrowing or lend
ing ga pinch Of salt or "a piece Of
butter the size of an egg" or otherwise
exchanging cooking school civilities
with great equanimity.
Schools Of this sort have been founded
in many cities, but all Of them have
been short lived. The inevitable stun
bling block has been apparently the
want of tact in management. The mixed
classes have been a failure in most cases
from the start.
The Domestic Science school Of Syra-
cuse was opened two years ago by ths
Household Economic club Glasses in
cooking were formed, and the society
women Joined them and got their cooks
and housemaids 10 Join with them.
They all donned aprons and caps, suTned
back their sleeves and went at Il togeth-
er. AT the end of a years faithful wmk
each received q diploma setting forth
ber qualifications as professional cook.
The second year opened with a rush
of pupils, including both domestic EN-
ployers and employees. and when the
diplomas were given out at the close Of
the years work enthusiasm bad not
abated. The school has been self sup
porting and has even earned small in

Child. odd Playmate.

Colonel Ellethrope, the we'll known
Illinois scientist, has summer cottage
about two miles from Dunuin. One Of
his yearly summer visitors Is his little
granddaughter Bessie. In the household
Of a scientific grandfather it would be
strange if the child waited for pets with
which to amuse herself. Nor does she,
for birds and animals of every descrip-
tion surround her. There are dogs and
cats, parrots and mocking birds, pigeons
and doves, but the one the child likes
she best is common forest toad.
Ii appears each spring and watches
eagerly for the arrival OF nttle Bessie.
The child IS equally anxious TO Iind her
pet, and as soon as she arrives at Gale
wood she goes out into the yard calling
'sTom, Tom" Presently something is
seen moving through the grass from the
vicinity Of the old well. and before long
she toad comes into view.
Il hops eagerly into the child's lap
and remains there contentedly while
she speaks 10 it and feeds it crumbs.
Not day passes but Tom makes his
regular appearance. He follows Bessie
around everywhere until the time comes
for him to go back TO his winter sleep

Mrs Harries B. Kells of Roswell, n.
NJ, is woman with genius for hard
work and dezire to help "make the
world better" For many years she was
principal OF a young wolnan's college
at Fairmouut, near Nashville. Ii was
high grade institution, where were ed
ucated the presidents Of the boards Of
lady managers Of the recent expositions
at both Atlanta and Ma hyille, Mrs
Emma N. Thompson and Mrs Van Lee1
Kirkman. Her health failing, Mrs.
KelIs went to the gulf coast. There she
founded and organized the school of the
diocese of Mississippi, q high grade
school for young women, of which she
was two years principal. Later she &C
cupied the chair of physiology and
zoology in the Mississippi State Col
lege For Girls. a school numbering 400
students. Becoming tired Of teaching,
Mrs. Kells went into editorial work.
After editing a paper of her own for
three years she was called to Chicago
as oOeditor with Miss Frances Willard
0n The Union Signal, where she re-
mained several years. Her health fail
ing again, she removed, in 1895, 10
New Mexico. She purchased fruit

ranch life until she took charge Of the
public schools Of that city. She found
Cd a wonan's club there, which has

it is man who is responsible for the new
woman. Woman is domestic creature
instinctively. In years gone by she was
content TO stay at home, to cook, to sew,
to mind the house and the children.
But man entered her sphere with his
inventions. and now woman must go
out into the world for new employment.
The woman's hand must have Occupa-
tion unless you can arrest her intellect,
which you can no more do than you can
arrest her tongue. There was never
any question a. to the right or prOpriety
of mans entering woman's sphere, save
cnly that he should submit TO the test
which the law Of capacity administers
in her world as in mans. Must women,
then, be doomed to the life of modern
sphinx: Never. God rules Us with a
driving force which hastens the progress
not only Of man. but of woman, and .
drawing force Of better wages and great
opportunity has been created by that
progress for the woman. And the new
woman is not slow TO take advantage Of
it.
1.-THE woman's influence upon the
world is often as strong and lasting as
the mans. Abraham Lincoln did scarce
more 10 overthrow the institution Of
slavery than did Harriet Beecher Stowe.
If the woman is fitted to look after the
business, say, let her do it, and let the
man stay at home and nurse his nerves.
IL the mans strength lies ia his legs
and the woman's s in her eloquence and
intellect, then let each fll his sphere,

If IL assured were monument enough
and reward enough TO these gentle mar
fyrs.
Miss Willard died unknowing of the
outcome Of her work, waveriDg as it
did between success and disaster. but
she died hoping. Miss Shontz has dwelt
in the dim period Of doleful prophecy,
hat she has strengthened her heart, has
pirded up the courage of her associates,
has poured cut her time, strength,
youth, energy and talent, and is in turn
laid low, but still hopeful, still believ-
ing. OF such faith is that which moves

wavering faith Of some Of the noblest
women God ever made. a monument TO
the glory Of Selfless wonanhoOd and the
beauty of self sacrifice
Eva Shontz, who now lies with pa
tiently folded hands, but busy brain, in
a iarkened room of her father home at
Beverley Hills, has always been a de-
voted temperance advocate and worker.
Her strong temperance principles were
in measure inherited, since both her
mother and her father have been and
are earnest temperance people, and her
steadfastness, intensity and gift for sac
rifce may also have come TO her through
heredity, as she Is descended from
Huguenots who suffered persecution and
prison for their faith, so that she may
almost be said TO have the blood OF saints
aud mal tyrs in her veins. She is "a west
ern gnl, pure and simple being bern, in
Centeryille. Ia, graduated from the
high and other schools there and after
ward took the classical course at Mon
mouth college, Illinois, where she grad
uated with honors in 1884
Her first temperance appeal made in
public was in her college yaledictOry.
That was the beginning. Going from
college, she returned TO her native town
and taught in she high school for a
year. 1t was good, but it was not
enough. At college her oratorical abil-
ity had been recognized. Three times
had she been chosen 20 represent her
literary society, and each time had won
in the contest To go further in the art
OF expression was her hearts desire.
She went to Philadelphia and took the
two years course in the National School
Of Oratory. Teachers and friends proph-
esied that here was a new actress arisen,
but Miss Shontz said her nay. Her
strong religious convictions. her tastes,
desires and habits were all opposed. She
took up teaching instead and became
exponent Of elocutiOn in Westminster
college, Pennsylvania. and Tarkie col
iege, Missouri, each for brief space of
time. and then did what she was obvi-
ously most fitted for-she went on the
llatform as public reader.
All this time she had been an ardent
member of the Y. ". c. 7. L. and the
W. c. 7. U. itself. They spoke Of her
as "our white ribbon artist reader, "

art which she best loves. Not until the
