THE WINTER SEASON.

One who has not seen the lay of the
land might think that an elevated place
having SO delightful a summer climate
would have a v winter. Yet this Is
not true. The winter temperatur Is not
so low as in the lower Ohio valley, and
Is free from moisture, there being less
Of cloudy weather in winter than in
summer. To the north, the great noun
tains Of Colorado receive the greatest
snowfall, and break the force of north
guard to shelter the Santa Fe valley,
which lies at their feet. To the east q

ward also, nature has interposed bar
riers to shield New Mexico from gales,
and when a wind finds its way up the
winding Rio Grande, Santa Fe receives
but the feather edge Of the blow.
NEW MEXICO SANITARIUMS.
Sunny, bright days mark the winter
season, which, until Christmas at least.
is quite as delightful as the glorious
summer, though crisp and cool. Even
the spring months in Santa Fe cannot
be equaled for mildness in any eastern
state. While hundreds of tourists visit
the city in summer and make a more or
less p%rotracted stay, the number who
come to remain permanently for the Gu
rative effect upon t~uberculous diseases
is all the while increasing. The proper
ton of the latter will be undoubtedly
enlarged in consequence OF the indorse-
nent given New Mexico's climate by
the United States marine hospital serv-
ice, which has in 1899 established two
permanent sanitariums in the territory,
and will maintain them as homes for
soldiers and sailors afflicted or threat
ened with tubercular troubles. Many
years of life at New Mexico army posts
and a careful examination by experts
in the interest Of military invalids, and
1t Is also intended to remove to New
Mexico consumptive inmates of soldiers
homes in California and eastern states.
Favorable conditions exist all over
New Mexico for restoration to health or
for improving the condition of such suf-
ferers; a dry, aseptic air, light atmos-
pheric pressure, we'll drained soil, a
minimum of cold and heat, the absence
Of great changes in temperature and a
maximum Of sunshine.
SUNSHINE RECORDS.
AS to the latter point, the latest fig
ures available from the government rec
ords are those Of 1897, the year book Of
1898 having not yet been published. The
summer Of 1897, as 1t happened, was un-
usually cloudy and rainy at Santa Fe,
yet the superiority Of this city In the
matter Of days that were sunny
throughout, can be seen by a few COM
PARSONS with places in various parts of
the country.

MRS. MARTHA F. GROVE,

has given her what she values more--a
place in the literary and educational
world and the admiration and love of Its
cultured people.
Since her college days Mrs. Grove has
been indefatigable in her chosen fields Of
labor, teaching, lecturing and writing al
most constantly. Her career as a teacher
began in the east, first at Waynesburg
college, where she was lady principal,
and afterward at Wellesley. Upon being
married she came west and took up her
work in an Iowa college, where her hus-
band, a distinguished archaeologist,
taught Greek.
This was followed by a period of travel,
during which she made many trips abroad
and at one time spent a year in study at
the British museum and in the Bodleian
library. About this time she was COM
missioned by the board of education at
Washington to make an investigation of
the university education of women in Eu-
ropean countries. She visited England,
Scotland, Germany, Italy and Switzer-
land, meeting the foremost educators and
writers, with many of whom she formed
warm and lasting friendships. Among
these were George Meredith, Theodore
Watts Dunton, Israel Gollance, editor Of
the Temple Shakespeare" and DR.. II. j.
Furnivall, the eminent Shakespearean
scholar.
When the Chicago university was open
ed, Mrs. Groves services were secured
as one of the professors Of English.
Unlike the other women who taught
there at that time, she had no other du-
ties except that Of instruction, and this
was confined chiefly to the Shakespearean
period. This position she held until 1898,
when she resigned to take charge of the
Dearborn seminary, a preparatory school
for girls and affiliated with the univer-
sity. This is the oldest private school in
Chicago and includes among its alumnae,
Of which there are over 400, many of the
representative women who today are
noted for their culture and refinement.
In the old days it stood in the neighbour
hood Of Wabash venue and Washington
street, but the Entertainments of business
life have driven it southwark until it
now has a charming location, overlooking
the lake, on the corner Of Calumet avenu
and Twenty-frst street. Mrs. Groves
idea Of education is an all round develop
ment, and she would make gentlewomen
Of her girls as well as scholars. She her.
self is a living example Of this theory,
and the trustees of the school are fortu-
nate to have secured her services.

Note-The minus sign g used befor'
figures above indicates below zero.

This table shows that in the year 1897
only Ell Paso had more sunshine than
Santa Fe, but that Texas city has much
hotter and almost as great
an extreme Of cold, with an excessive
amount of wind in the winter.
The government records do not show
that any place in the United States x
cells Santa Fe in sunshine, year in and
year out, the average number Of hours
Of sunshine daily in a period Of five
years being sever hours and forty-five
minutes, which Is just about right for
variety, comfort and health.
A favorable point in comparison with
the east Ia that the most sunshine here
is in the fall and winter, November
leading, while in the east the sun Is
more in evidence in the summer months,
when it is sometimes neither wanted
nor needed.

The American flag now floats over II
land of %barbarity. If any one had pro
phesied this four years ago he would
have been laughed to scorn. Yet change
is constantly taking place. Nature is
merciless. So soon as she discovers an
improvement the old, whatever it may
he, is doomed. The TACT that Hostetters
Stomach Bitters, the famous cure for
dysdepsia, has remained unchanged for
half a century, proves its value. Try it
for indigestion, b~iliousness, constipation
or malaria, fever and ague, and be con

The Girl.

Washington Irving, on being asked by
a mother how to educate her daughters,
replied, Madam, teach them to be easily
pleased"
How many young girls seem to believe
ucation Is to enable them to c~riticise their
n%eighbors and find fault with their sur
roundings!
The refined, we'll bred girl is not diff
cult to please, either with people or cir
cumstances. She adjusts herself with
quiet grace to sharp corners and square
corners, as well as to comfortable round
ones, and smooths a rough temper with
just as much ease us she wakens a dull
one into life and good humor. This tact
full girl never goes to work with shovel
and tongs to make her friends believe
they are all wrong, but with a look, a
word or a smile she simply convinces
them she is all right.

Thacher to join our sketch club" said

"You wouldn't believe such a sweet,
pretty looking girl as Myra could be so
disagreeable. Why, she complained of
everything! The roads were too long
and the mountains too high and hard to
climb, and the woods were brushy. The
house We stopped at was uncomfortable,
and the people stupid, and the beds hard.
The windows were so loose in their
frames they ratified and kept her awake
nights, and the wasps disturbed her day
times. She couldn't eat oatmeal without
thick cream and had a headache II she
went without hot cakes and maple strip
for breakfast. I think any one like that
ought to stay at home, don't you?

Kitty had travelled a good deal and ex-

simple things, too, and made every one of

light over a bunch Of wild flowers or the
color Of the sunset.
when the fog shut of every fine view,
she would paint the old clock or the
straight back rocker Of the dear mother.
II a rainy night made it dull, she would
draw us all together around the great
