n IDEAL WOMAN.
Opinions of Young Men as to What
She Should Be.

Opiuions of Young Men as to What
III Should Be.
The majority of young people, In
speaking of the ideal woman, refer to
the woman of poetry and romance, and
as Mary Wilkins says, "a pedestal is
altogether too shaky a place to place
any human being"
So we use the term in its practical
and more definite sense, making the
subject more real and giving the ordi-
nary girl q hope of emulating her.
Not long ago a certain clergyman
sent out questions to young men all
over the country, and to a few young
wemen, asking them for their concep-
ton of the ideal young m The
answers were from men in all walks
of life-professional and commercial
amid the din of city life and from
ouiet country homes. From these an
swers we are glad to note that the
young men generally do the subject
Justice and speak in a kind and broth
erly manner
The one clear-cut wish of the young
man is that his life companion must
no q housewife, with all that the term
implies, while not denying the i'm
nortance of education, this must not
he merely ornamental, but of the kind
to fit her as q home provider and en-
able her to take her place as an every
day worker in this very busy world.
The young men do not object to her
knowledge of Gibbons Decline and
Fail of the Roman Empire, but they re-
uuire her to know of the decline and
fall of the people by whom she is sur
rounded.
Mere dolls have no place in woman's
work and women's hands are more
beautiful after they have been soiled
by useful employment.
AS to the subject of morals, the
Young men say, that to have one stand
ard for men and another for women Is
a relic of barbarism, and a doctrine
that has no place in modern times.
The rigid rule that keeps a girl at home
evenings should also restrain a boy
from wandering around the streets or
country at unseernly hours; the evil
effects of this conduct tells on the one
as much as the other.
All the answers require a girl to be
a Christian; and many of them speak
Of special objections, such as card
playing, wine drinking, dancing, but

these open up too wide a field of dis

In every country of the civilized world
Sisters of Charity are known. Not only
do they minister to the spiritual and in
tellectual needs of the charges committed
to their care, but they also minister to
their bodily needs. -
With so many children to take care of
and to protect from climate and disease
these wise and prudent Sisters have found
Peruna a never failing safeguard.
DR.. Hartman receives many letters from
Catholic Sisters from all over the United
States. A recommend recently received
from a Catholic institution in Detroit,
Mich, read as follows:
DR.. S. Il. Hartman, Columbus. Ohio /:
Dear Sir:-f'1be YOUNG girl achO
used the Peruna ,Oa suffering from
LGryngttis. and loss Of UOice. The
result of the treatment eoGs most
satisfactory. SkefOmHd great relief.
and after further use OF the medt
cine zoe hope to be able to sGv she is
entirely cured. ''-Sfsters OF Charity.
The young girl was under the care of the
Sisters of Charity and used Peruna for ca
tarrh of the throat, with good results, as
the above letter testifies.

Scales.

The grand balance or scale used in
the Bank of England is probably the
most wonderful piece of mechanism to
be seen anywhere. 1t stands about
seven feet high and weighs probably
two tons. This scale is so perfectly ad-
justed that 1t can weigh a grain of
dust or 400 pounds of gold. A postage
stamp placed on one of the two weigh
ing portions will the index six
inches. If the weight placed upon the
scale is beyond its capacity an electric
bell is set ringing, the machine declin-
ing to execute a task of which it is
incapable.

DOES THIS CLIMATE CHANGE?

During the several very hot sum-
mers recently past there was a theory
not infrequently ventilated that the
climate In American cities had radio
ally changed, and that hereafter very
hot would follow each other
without break. There was ne escape.
The general use of electricity was do
ing the business, says a writer in Bran
dur Magazine. How electricity was do
ing it or why | do not recall hearing,
but that was the all-sufficient explana-
ton. | venture the opinion that not
one in ten of the men and women who
talked this nonsense had more than the
faintest idea of what electricity is. But
they were cocksure of the soundness OF
the theory. The summer of 8 0 has
knocked all semblance of integrity out
of these unbaked theories and left us
wondering whether there ever was such
weather before. Probably there has
been, and possibly not. | do not pre-
tend to know, and l am not old enough
to remember the rigors of that famous
1916 when there vas frost in every
month in the year. But | should not be
~astbnished to live long enough to eXpe-
rierlce such a summer and to hear my
good %neighbors attribute it to every
thing from a changed climate to the re-
venge of an angry Deity. AS a mat
ter of fact | suspect that the climate
has not changed, but is always chang
ingl swinging like a pendulum back
and forth; not, however, with the same
simple regularity, but in some eccen-
trio fashion which as yet We do not
understand. These remarks do not
mehn that the climate and the weather
are beyond the comprehension of men.
Not at all. | believe that after these
things have been under trained obser-
walton a sufficiently long time the pres
emit mysteries will be cleared away, and
that we will understand much better
| than now many of the things that battle
u.s.. l believe it quite possible that we
maly not only be able to tell what the
morrow will bring, but that, to some
| degree at least, we may be able to on
troll 1t. At present, however, the old
wife in the country, the wiseacre in
town, and the government observer are
pretty nearly on a par.

nre controlled largely by the particu-
lar society in which they nave been
brought up or the Locality where they
reside-what might be right in one
section would not be tolerated in an
other, unless it be wine drinking, about
which there cannot be two opposite
opinions among right thinking people.
In olden times parents stood out
against the education of girls, but now
adays the danger is of running to the
opposite extreme-the education
mere adornmenr. 10 many OF the girls
the business of their husbands or
brothers. the way they vote and their
cares and worries have scarcely any
interest for them, so long as they can
dress well.
We have not given the ideal woman
from the young girls point of view;
but one sensible girl expresses it in a
few words. She asks to be judged by
the same standard by which she judges
young men, land, allowing for sex, let
her have all the liberties which a
young nan ought to have"
So then we can certainly say that
the essential idea in young mems minds
of true womanhood is her ability to
make a home-in a palace or a cottage
in afiuence or in poverty-she is the

Identification of something like $780,
100000 for the landlords. During the
home rule agitation, when Gladstone's
bill was before Parliament, he was an
ardent anti-home ruler, and threw his
influence in the landlord party. Since
then he has changed his face, and,
while still opposed to home rule, he is
the vowed enemy of the landlord class,
