Indian exposition. which will be held
at Charleston, :. c., from Dec. 1 to
June l, 1902. In referring to the pres
ent day interest taken by women in
great expositions Mrs. Weatherred
says:
'Woman's work in connection with
an exposition is becoming more and
more important. While the women Of
today are not losing their feminine
characteristics. they are becoming
broader in their aims and in helping to
solve the great problems of the hour.
The historical features emphasized by
n woman's board are highly signifi-
cant. Take. for instance, the Charles
ton exposition. The woman's building
is a plantation home nearly 200 years
old. where valuable relics will interest
thousands of visitors. y woman's
board also looks after all conventions
of women held during the, season. In
the general work of an exposition ii is
naturally n woman's part as a citizen
TO do all that is in her power TO fur
Their the interests of her state or coun-
try"

Women Commencement.

A London confectioner's establish
ment which is run entirely by women
has become so great success that its
kitchen has of necessity been partial
ly converted into a school where wo-
men anxious to learn are taught the
confectioner's art. At the neat marble
slabs women OF apparently good edu-
cation are busy with dainty concoc-
tons. Some of these pupils are ambi-
tious TO become managers of similar
establishments of their own, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer. The concern in
question is carried on in connection
with n restauraPt and tearoom, and
since tearooms aae often managed by
women pupils from such establish
ments are coming in increasing num-
bers to this confectionery school, One
course. in which only two pupils can
be taken at time, includes the max
ing of cakes. sweets, ices, bookkeep-
ing and shop management. All the
latest inventions of the confectioner's
art are mastered by these women as
readily as they appear, for they find it
necessary in this as in every field of
work to keep abreast of the times.

Girls with a Twang Are Barred.

When girls are chosen for the gov
eminent service in London, the educa-
tional examination sinks into insignifi-
canoe before the physiological test. No
girl will be employed If she be below
feet inches high in her stocking soles.
She must possess good hearing, have
no defect of speech and must be tested
by viva voce examination, in which
particular attention is Ito be paid to
articulation, pitch OF voice and general
self possession. Any candidate show
ing any indication of nervousness, hys-
terra, want of self possession or Il
strongly marked twang shall be re-
Jected. The majority will probably
pass in self possession, but dialect is

AS a result of gymnastics and out

have just been pronounced physically
perfect. They are TO become public
school teachers. and the three women
doctors who made the examination OF
these young Junos say:
I'VE have never before found SO
many women physically perfect. We
believe that this is due to the gymna-

the appetite for athletics which has

These young women are singularly free

the second prize. show long she has
been married and after she has replied

claim: Mon Dieu. You must have
been n mere child at that time. How
old were you then, at any rateT" From
her two answers the lady's age can be
ascer.3ined without arousing any sus-
picion on her part.
ASK the lady" says the winner Of
the third prize. "how many years
younger she is than her husband This
is an everyday question, and the chan
ces are thousand to one that she will
answer it promptly and correctly.
Then find out the husbands age, which
can very easily be done, and by work
ing out little sum in arithmetic you
can easily solve the problem"
