In the line of trained nursing Il new

A baby's cry should be to the intcli-
gent mother the best index to its physical
condition. The healthy baby cries very
loudly and in a lusty, explosive, angry
manner, and the tears flow freely. The
sick baby, or the one on the verge OF
sickness, cries peeyishly or whines in
low tone.
Watch the manner in which the baby
takes its food. If it is perfectly well it
will attack the bottle greedily and will
express its satisfaction much in the same
manner as any other young sucking ami
mal-that is. by soft and inarticulate
noises or grunts If, on the other hand.
the baby contcmplates its food before
touching it or after tasting turns from it.
be sure there is something wrong.
Watch the baby closely while it sleeps.
If it is in perfect health the skin will be
moist. the lips damp and scarlet, the
palms of the hands and the soles of the
feet pink. The eyeids will be completely
closed and there will be no twitching OF
the muscles about the mouth or nose or
eyes Save for a faint rhythmic sound Of
breathing the healthy baby when asleep
will be as still as a piece Of carved mar
Bile.
If the baby smiles in its sleep, if it
throws out its little hands and feet with
swift, spasmodic motions; if the eyes are
only half closed, the corners of the mouth
drawn down. the breathing irregular or
labored. the face flushed and the head
hot, then lose no time in calling in the
family physician.

Inc nineteenth century opened under
the most favorable auspices for the ad-
vancement OF the cause of liberty and
the bcttcrment of the conditions of the
human family.
Great indeed has been the advance Of
woman in the nineteenth century by com
parison with the past. She has forced
the passage OF laws which give her the
right to exist independent in her property
rights and free to follow pursuits of life
and happiness formerly closed to her
Her force of character and ability have
compelled legislation to allow her to en-
ter into the competition for an honest
livelihood; she was gradually allowed to
practice medicine and cure humanity
from the ills of the flesh.
She has been allowed by law to prac-
tice Jurisprudence; she occupies nearly
1000 pupils; she teaches over 10000
600 children in the public schools of the
country; she is on the staff of every inn
portant Journal. All this she has achiev-
ed in the nineteenth century-hut how
little. after all, when compared with
what still remains to be attained. The
word people" is not yet understood: the
word citizen" is still misquoted.
In the twentieth century the cause of
liberty must and will progress until every
vestige Of injustice to woman shall be
wiped away Then indeed human rights
will mean the rights of man and woman
alike; then difference Of sex will not pre-
vent one-half the people from asserting
their right to participate in every part of
a government which is by the whole peo-
pie for the whole people.-Alice Parker

Higher Education of women

Mrs. Alice Freeman Palmer, ex-presi-
dent OF Wellesley college says that of
the GO colleges and universities of this
country of the highest standing only nine
refuse to women their degrees, Princeton
being the only university in the United
States that refuses to confer honorS on
women. Every college founded since the
war of the rebellion has been founded for
both men and women This naturally af-
fects the condition of life in both the city
and country. Practically all schools be-
low the high school are in the hands of
women, and 50 per cent Of the teachers
in New England high schools are wo-
men. Formerly if Il woman studied the
sciences, philosophy or the classics it
was said she would lose her health, re-
ligion and morals. But time has proved
inst fine contrary"

millennium has arrived there already. so
far at least as women cooks are concern

can command the best wages and choose
their mistresseS at that. Recently the
cook at a Tasmania hotel who was draw

fused Immediately gave notice. At the
end of the week, however, instead of de-
parting with her baggage she merely
moved to one of the best apartments in
the house, and as there was nothing
against her character she could not be
turned out. AT meal times. the Sydney
Bulletin says, she sampled every dish
and audibly criticised the cooking-done
by the unfortunate landady herself. This
went on for week. Then flesh and blood
could stand it no longer, and the cook
moved back to her old room with raise
