TRAINING CHILDREN.
When An the Family Help, Work Is

Easy.
When right-minded parents once see
the benefits their children may derive
from manual training they will GER
tainly plan for them to have 1t, says
Table Talk. One mothers desire to
have her daughter learn housework led
her to dismiss her servants and herself
share the work, that her object might
be accomplished under her own care
full supervision. Nor was this done in
a spirit of martyrdom, but one Of
wholesale joyousness, remembered by
both years after with the greatest
pleasure. One cannot teach the dig
nifty of labor who does not feel it and
it is only to those who look upon it as
degradation that it becomes such.
When in the course of human events
the maids places become vacant, as
is apt to happen in the best regulated
families, the members thereof usually
sit about bemoaning the disJointed
condition of the universe. In one fam
lily I know of, when such occasion
comes, each member takes part; even
the boys attack the ever-to-be-washed
dishes and the paterfamilias does not
lose caste in the community by lend
ing hand when at home in either the
cause Of cleanliness or cooking. He
can sweep and dust a room as deftly
as any maid, cook meal and even
make bread rather better than the
most Of them, all without making a
muss or losing his temper. Temper?
Why, it is at it's sunniest on such oc-
casions-the entire family really rather
enjoy the frolics they make of them.
Their motto seems to be "Helpfulness
versus helplessness."

ARE WOMEN STINGY?

There is fine old masculine preju-
The whole question hangs closely on to
the power of earning money, and the
woman who makes her own life and
her own living, is rarely guilty Of the
vice Of parsimony. The horrors Of
rigid domestic economy are usually
practiced by wives to whom weekly
dole for housekeeping is handed out:
women who, not possessing q penny OF
their own and having no pin money
settled upon them at marriage, are
tempted to pinch and scrape in order
to put something by for themselves.
The woman who earns, on the other
hand, especially one who earns on
large scale, is more often than not
open-handed to fault. The case of
novelist-the late Mrs. Oliphant-is
one in point. This courageous pen
woman lived always on the fat of the
land, travelled en- princesse, sent hei
sons to Eton and to Oxford and prac
ticed all the amenities Of life. Although
good Scotswoman, we are told by
writer in Blackwood that she hated
small economics To travel expensive
was her way She never would trav.
el second-class. She had none of what
she calls the faculty of economics in
her. She stayed at the very best and
most expensive hotels; she dressed in
the richest of silks and satins."
Mrs. Oliphant, in short, though a
trif1e daring in her expenditure, is q
good type of the open handed working
woman. There are at least two IA.
nous English authoresses today who
live-and entirely by their own exer.
tions-like the wives of peers. They
have town and country mansions; they
go to Italy, to Egypt, to Japan, when
the fancy takes them; they drive the
most snowy horses; they entertain like
South African millionaires. To thinh
Of them as mean is to imagine an i'm.
possibility. They earn large sums and
they are at considerable pains to spend
them as quickly and as joyously al
may be.
1t Is the same with actresses and
singers. The princely hospitalities OF
a certain diva are world-famous. Your
popular actress, as rule, would like
to have four hands with which ta
throw her money about, and she does
1t, indeed, to such effect that mon.
ster benefit is usually got up to supply
her with the necessaries of life toward
the close Of her career. It is possible
indeed, that women in this connection
are somewhat akin to gamblers. II
they make money with ease-or, at any
rate, with not too strenuous toil-they
are prone to spend it in the most tol.
erably light-hearted fashion.
