and a masklike face. which is so con-
spicuous among women Of to-day. This
imbecile looking toy, he goes on to say,
is looked upon by the small girl as
vision of beauty and Joy. What more
natural, then, than a desire on the part
OF the child TO simulate its unnatural
charms as she grows up and Is able 10
play tricks with her own person.
The fact that wsmen who a few years
ago would not have dared TO appear
with face made up now paint bra
zenly Is due TO the value that women
set on beauty. There is no doubt that
the end OF the century woman IS a good
deal cleverer than her mother was %
years ago. She has learned. whether
she be the humble typewriter girl or
the society leader, that beauty Is power,
and no matter how we'll she may be

and fortune where a more brilliant but
less lovely sister would have failed II
Is phase OF the desperate ambition OF
a reckless age. and no wonder any
means are grasped at IN trying to at
tain it. The society woman covertly
admires the beautiful. daring beauties
of the stage. She asks them to her
house, fetes them and studies them in
order to weigh those charms that have
so often ensnared the men Of her circle.
She initiates the opera singer or tho
vaudeville queens airs and graces. but
she makes the mistake OF forgetting
that when the singer or dancer shuts
the door OF her greenroom behind her

nowadays driving down Fifth avenue
are painted and powdered and enamel

are too young to need the aid Of art to

Breakfast-Stewed figs, poached eggs

Not only does the comfort and sat
itfaction Of good dinner depend great
ly upon the skill of the carver, but al
so the plentiness of the next days

well and good, but if man who I'M
derstands nothing about carving, at
tempts to mutilate and hack a joint
to pieces, it can neither be enjoyed at
the time nor be served at any other
time, therefore, through the ignorance
of the master of the house enough
meat is wasted, which, if skillfully
managed, could have been used nicely
for the following day. In many cases
the mistress does the carving and if she
knows how at all, she does it so dex-
trously that it often lasts several days
instead of one. Meat should invaria-
bly, be cut right through the bone, so
that the juices which always lie near
the bone may be fully enjoyed. A leg
OF mutton should be sliced rather
upon the knife as the juices run out
very quickly; cut it first in the mid
ole and then in even slices towards
tbs knuckle ends.
Wash the leg of mutton well and dry
with a clean cloth; lay in your pan and
put in a little water to haste it with.

think, compare fayorably with some
of the so-caIled respectable women OK
the present era. 1t is bad for any wo-
man to lead life of shame, but it is
even worse for a woman who calls
herself respectable to ape the follies
and foibles of the fallen sisterhood.
Now, what is my idea of the New Wo-
man? My idea of the New Woman is
one that rises, phoenix-like, strength
ened, purified and ennobled from the
ashes of the follies Of her sister wo-
men. A woman whose life is pure,
whose thoughts are chaste, whose
speech is pure; woman who believes
in charity-not only the charity OF
deeds, but the charity that thinketh
and speaketh no wrong; woman
whose every deed is prompted by that
innate, noble womanliness of her char
acter, whose heart, always tender and
true, is filed with sweet kindness
and sympathy for her fellow creatures;
a woman who considers that her home
is her kingdom, her husband her king,
her children the brightest diamonds
that can be placed in the crown Of
womanhood; the woman whose ear is
open to listen to tales of sorrow, whose
hands are open to relieve the sufferer;
whose endeavors to conduct herself
SO that she is a helpmeet in the truest
and most beautiful sense of the word
to her husband; who respects herself,
so that she is no toy and no idler in
the community, but who rules man
kind, and who is quite happy in her
innate virtue and spotless innocence.
A woman who would never hurl down
AN ERRING SISTER,
but who would help to raise her; a
woman who practices the blessed kind
ness of Jesus with Mary Magdalen; a
woman who does not pull her petit
coats away from any one degraded for
fear of contamination, but who strives
with all her might to raise the fallen.
The woman without extravaganza and
ostentation-a woman who never
thinks or speaks evil; a woman who
is not afraid of saying that she loves
and worships her God, that she honors
and respects her husband, that she
adores her children and who, morn
ing and night, sinks down on her knees
in prayer and thanks the Giver of all
that is good for his goodness to her.
A woman who loves and respects her
parents; who, in her own modest,
sweet way, tries to do her duty; who
instinctively shrinks from evil, who
will not allow loose talk to be uttered
IN her presence; who admires every
thing that is manly, abhores every
thing that is fast; who sees no reason
why a man should not wear the white
lily of a spotless life as well as a wo-
man is obliged to; who. by her own
beautiful life and example, by her in
dustry and unassuming charity and
virtue, shows what happy place this
world of ours can be when the real
type and only type of the New Woman
fourishes in our midst.

publicity beating upon them, whose
one aim is to have their names in the
papers; to be abused or praised is a
matter of eqdal indifference to them as
long as they taste the caviare of noto-
riety. The women whose homes, hus-
bands and children, if they have any,
are neglected, whose one aim in life
is platform spouting; who in endeavor-
ing to redress all
THE WRONGS OF THE WORLD
inflict the greatest of all wrongs upon
themselves, by their callousness, their
disregard of domestic obligations, ma
terial duties, wifely cares. am old
fashioned enough to think that wo-
mans place is in her home and that if
she does her duty to her husband and
children she performs the most sacred
obligations of her sex. Is this old
fashioned, however? Another para
graph will prove this, for think myself
that this blatant, mounting, unsexed
Shrieking Sisterhood is by no means
type of the New Woman. This is as
old as Mother Eve! Again, there is
another type. That is the woman who
likes to poke her nose into every moral
cesspool, who only lives on
THE MIASMA OF CONTAMINATED
HUMANITY.
who treads with brazen tread where
angels are afraid to venture, and, mark
you, who does no good, either, by thus
tresspassing into impurity. 1t is the
woman who thinks that every sister
woman is a wanton, and every man q
knave; who sees nothing in life but
foulness and wickedness; who visits
the theatre not for amusement, but to
see what her foul Imagination can de-
tect as being tainted with impurity;
who goes to a place Of amusement not
to hear the music or to watch the ar
tistic blending of colors of the ballet,
but to prowl round and to see what
poor fallen wretches she can find in the
promenade, and who, if she finds it de-
cent and respectable, is not content
with the knowledge Of her eyes and her
senses, but tries to drop on her own
awkward shoulders the mantle of La
Cocotte. Then, when such women are
taken, as they have tried to be, for
members of the fallen sisterhood, they
wax eloquent over depravity, and speak
loudly, and trumpet impudently, the
vices of theatres and places of amuse-
ment. Do not call them New Women.
I hardly like to think that our sex
(writing as a woman) is disgraced by
such unsexed creatures! Ask one of
these women to spend an hour over an
open drain, and sniff up its malodorous
odors, and she would righteously cry
shame on the one who made such a
suggestion, but from prurient curiosity,
from a debauched imagination, she will
make acquaintance, go to places, and
act in a manner that not one good,
true woman would ever DO. But, again,
these are not New Women. i know
it is the fashion to call them so. but
do not believe they are. They are
old women-women Of the time of

to have her own friends, and her in

to dislike children. who never recog-

their blind egotism, their wicked self
ishness, pretend (for in their hearts I
do not believe they mean it, to despise
maternity would think of what they
lose, how much love, how much tender
ness. How their husbands must de-

Then there is the type of New Wo-
man that we are familiar with in the
papers, and which, l think, only exists
in the imagination of writer's and art
ists-the strong minded, up-to-date,
very downright woman, who speaks
openly of things that men generally
whisper about, who dresses unbecom-
ingly, and smokes land uses naughty
words, goes to objectionable places
not because she likes it, but because
she ought not to do it-who does not
believe in anything, either God or man,
and who takes a pleasure in avowing
her blasphemy and infidelity. Such
as these develop into unnatural daugh-
tiers, treacherous sisters, unfaithful
wives, and neglectful mothers. This
type, as l have said before. 1 believe

writer's. do not believe that they are
sketches of living, breathing women:
but yet, even suppose they are, these
are not New Women. They are a type
that has existed hundreds of years.
There are the members of the Shrek
ing Sisterhood to consider. The women
who are always finding out imaginary
grievances and pretending to redress
fictitious wrongs. The women who can
