Gold Chain on Her Ankle.

A young woman living in New York
has astOnished her friends by the new
fashion she has brought home from
abroad Around one Of her ankles is
linked a gold chain bracelet or anklet
of heavy Tuscan gold fastened with a
turquoise amulet clasp.
This is worn outside the stocking
and is plainly in evidence when a golf
skirt is worn.
1t would seem far too striking a fash
ion to find favor with women of good
taste, but it is difficult to tell exactly
what will strike the feminine fancy.
Already a few of her friends have or
dered similar anklets in gun metal and
silver of less elaborate fashion than
that worn by the young woman, who
brought the fad direct from Paris,
where it was introduced by a Russian
woman of title.
One of these anklets being observed
at a Russian bath patronized by wom-
en-, the attendant was asked if the
custom were general.
"a great many women" said the
girl, wear these chain bracelets, some
above the knee and others at the an
kle. | have never known of their be-
ing worn outside the stocking. howev-
er, as | have been usually called to as
list the wearer to adjust the stocking
over the anEle.. sometimes a difficult
task to perform without tearing the
delicate hosiery."-New York Press

When to Cut the Hair,

THE hair should never be cut at all.
1t makes it bleed and Injuries and hard
ems it. 1t should be singed always"
'At every new moon?"
"The moon may control the tide, but
not the hair. No; every three months
is often enough.
THE hair should be light and free on
the head. 1t should have air and not
be plastered down fiat. To shuttle it is
food for it, for the hair can rest that
way. The hair should always be brush
ed a little before it is combed out, for
combing hair breaks and bruises the
roots more than does anything else"
"And at night?"
"Ah, at night" says madam-"at
night the hair should be put in very
loose braids or even allowed to hang
over the pillow. But never should it be
left dressed and I'D coils to the head.
Then it will have no air, no freedom,
and it will he like a plant kept always
in the dark"
Can any woman have lovely hair?''
Yes, any woman can have beautiful
hair. But glorious hair is a gift from
God, just like any other point of mar
velous beauty"

The Young Women's Christian asso-
citation of Boston in its recently pub
lished annual reports gives some in
teresting statistics regarding the work
accomplished by it. Two hundred and
eighty pupils entered the educational
and industrial classes last year and
1,072 persons enjoyed the gymnasium.
The domestic science and Christian
worker schools enrolled 60 pupils, and
in the training school for domestics 90
were instructed. The mercantile
schools, with ia pupils, and the Bible
class, with 225 members, complete the
class department.

MORGA OFF
FOR FRISCO

New York, Sept. 18.-Bound for the
golden gate, J. Pierpont Morgan and
fourteen guests left the Grand Central
station yesterday morning on one the
most palatial trains ever started
across the continent. Mr.. Morgan and
his guests are going to attend the gen
eral convention of the Protestant Epis-
copal church, which begins it's sessions
on October 2, at San Francisco, and to
which Mr. Morgan is accredited as a
lay delegate.
Upon his arrival at San Francisco,
Mr.. Morgan will take up his residence
in the famous mansion of Charles
Croker, on Mob hill There are many
prominent guests to be entertained by
the financier during the convention.
Far more luxuries than the special
train which carried the late President
Mckinley on his recent tour of the
south and west is Mr. Morgan's train
of six special cars. 1t follows the Ell
pire State express to Buffalo as n
second section. Then it will proceed
by the Lake Shore to Chicago, on
across the prairies and through the
cliffs Of the Rockies to the golden
gate
Mr. Morgan's special car is the Co

Women as Confectioners.

4 London confectioner's establish
ment which is run entirely by women
has become so great a success that its
kitchen has Of necessity been partial
iy converted into school where wo-
men anxious to learn are taught the
confectoner'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-
gious to become managers of similar
eSta bliShments of their own, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer. The concern in
question is carried on in connection
with a restaurant and tearoom, and
since tearooms are 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
bt taken at time, includes the max
ing OF cakes. sweets, ices, bookkeep-
ing and snop management. All the
latest inyentit MS of the confectioner's
art are mastered by these women as
Teadily as they appear, for they find ii
necessary in this a in every field or
work to keep abreast of the times.

South Carolina Interstate and West
Indian exposition, which will be held
at Charleston, s. c., from Dec. / to
June !, 1902. In referring to the pres
ent day interest taken by women in
great expositions Mrs. Weatherred
says:
"Womans 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
a woman's board are highly signifi-
cant. Take, for instance. the Charles
ton exposition. The woman's building
is plantation home nearly 200 years
old, where valuable relics will interest
thousands of visitors. A woman's
board also looks after all conventions
of women held during the season. In
the general work of an exposition it is
naturally a woman's part as a citizen
to do all that is in her power to fur
ther the interests of her state or coun-
try"

Women In New South Wales.

"The legislative assembly of New
South Wales. it is announced, has
passed the third reading of the wom-
ems franchise BILL says the London
Daily News. In this matter Australia
follows in the footsteps of New Zea-
land and shows once more the strong
and spirited instinct for progress and
experiment, wise or unWiSe, which re-
sides in our empire when it is saga
ciously let alone. Evidently we do not
believe in equal rights everywhere
except in the country where we make
war for them. SO far as any deduc-
tons can be drawn from the case of
New Zealand, it is chiefly remarkable
for the fact that the reform has enter
ed quietly and harmlessly into the ma
tional life, doing neither the lurid evil
that was prOphesied by its opponents
nor the seraphic good that was proph-
esied by its prophets. The notion
that women. if they had a vote, would
leave behind ruined mansions and
starving babies in order to haunt the
polling stations day and night in the
hope of voting continuously in lieu Of
all other occupations displayed very
little knowledge of the feminine tenn
permanent. 1t is questionable whether
any number of seats in parliament
would soon cure women of their con-
tempt for politics. But, on the other
hand, almost equal harm has been
done to the cause by those idealists of
women's suffrage who have represent
ed that the moment women were
emancipated evil itself would wither
off the earth and laws would be passed
against tobacco and clubhouses."

A WOMAN'S HARD TRIP.
Nine. KeIdseth's Tramp From Chris
tiania to Paris.

tiania to Paris.
A remarkable Journey was accom-
plished not long ago by Norwegian
lady, Nine. Alma keldseth. who tray
eled on foot from Christiania to Paris:
The adventure arose out of a bet.
Nine. Keldseth having undertaken to
make this voyage without taking with
her money or food. She began by
walking twelve hours day, and when
night arrived she offered her services
to some farmer to earn her board and
lodging. After working two days and
earning some money she resumed her
journey. She lived in this way for
some time. At Copenhagen she be-
came a goyerness in family and took
care Of the children. Later on she act
ed as seamstress in another family,
washing and mending the clothes.
1t was in Germany that she encoun-
tered the greatest difficulty. She walk
ed a long while without either food or
shelter, and then a band of gypsies,
whose camp was erected on tn bor-
ders of a forest, received her round a
ire, on which were ONE potatoes.
Never" she said, Ibid eat with such
a good appetite" Sometimes, on pass
ing through the villages, she heard the
peasants eXclaim, Its a sorceress"
She dared not enter the tayerns.
Stones were thrown at her, some of
which she has kept as souvenirs.
These, says the Paris correspondent of
an evening paper, We're her hardest
days. She remained thirty-six hours
without eating and sometimes so ex-
hausted that she fell down in the road
and thought that her last moment had
arrived. The length of her last days
march was forty-five miles. 1t rained
and was cold. With her boots in
pieces, her feet infiamed, her dress all
torn and covered with mud, she at
length reached the end Of her journey.
