Mrs. General Miles.

Mrs. General Miles is the constant
companion Of her soldier husband,
and the two are known in the army as
1.-THE lovers" She was Miss Mary
Sherman, daughter Of Judge Sher-
man, of Cleveland. and niece Of ex.
Secretary Sherman, at whose home
in Washington she first met her
future husband.
Since then she has visited with
him almost every army post in the
country, even those farthest from
civilization. She says: ri could
always find occupation for my mind
and fingers in identifying the inter
ior Of our bare quarters and making
them homelike." She is skilled in
domestic arts.
Mrs. Miles joined her husband dur
ing the campaign in Porto Rico and
accompanies him wherever possible.
During one of his recent tours she
was interviewed as to her opinion on
various topics, including the woman
question. She is reported as saying:
81 am not a bicycle rider, but l see
no reason to disapprove of the wheel.
/ approve of all that tends to make a
woman strong and healthy. As to
the new woman so called if by that
you mean the woman of masculine
ways, can not say l admire her.
But that women should go into busi-
ness is perfectly right, particularly in
the professions of doctor and nurse
Two vocations for which women are
especially fitted. A woman's hap.
piest sphere is in a home of her own,
and that is the sphere to which most
are called. But I admire that
who, beng compelled, bravely battles
and makes success of the fight.
As to woman's capabilities for do
ing work as we'll as men, that will
come from training. AS yet, she has
not had the schooling or experience
which had been for centuries of
