- Rg RS. j. c. CROLY Jennie
W. june was the only Rresl-
~ SS dent the New York Won
ans Press club ever had.
| She herself founded the club about
thirteen years ago. How much she
was loved by it's members may be
Judged from the fact that at every BIZ
ennial election she was returned as It's
head, and the appearance Of any can
didate against her was a mere matter
of form to satisfy the requirements OF
the bylaws of the organization. Al
though Jennie June was past seventy
at the time of her death, no one could
think of her as an old woman. Her
figure was girlish, her hair was still
dark brown, she still took young Wo-
mans interest in the active pursuits
and advancement Of her sex. We must
| always remember these two facts con-
| corning her-she opened the way for
Woman's employment on the daily
| newspapers; she was the mother anu
| founder of women's clubs. Two Amer
/ lean women before her had been known
as contributors to newspapers, out
! they were never regularly members or
the home staff of one. These were
! Margaret Fuller and Mrs. Lippincott
I (Grace Greenwood. Mrs. LippiucOtt
! still lives. She was present at the Oc-
tober meeting of the New York WON"
! ans Press club, and Mrs. CrOly intro
! duced her to the audience in few
| graceful, tender words. In response
! Grace Greenwood, who wrote Euro
pean letters for Horace Greeley, made
( little speech to the club. It was some
thing to remember to see Grace Green
wood introduced to an audience by
Jennie June. And already Jennie June,
the younger Of the two, has gone from
this earth. May she enjoy the rest
she never knew here! .---.-ree1s TT< s,S -:

| Miss Norma Munro, daughter of
/ Norman Munro, the publisher, has con
i, trolled and personally managed all the
business interests of her father since
bis death. Miss Munro IS an accom-
! pf1shed musician, a graduate Of law

! Mrs. Lydia B1ggs 1f New Castle i
one of the best farmers in Delaware.
F.. Her lands, fences and various build
ings are as neat and in as good order
as is we'll kept front yard. Mrs. Biggs
| is dairy farmer keeping thirty COWS
/ and selling their milk. She is entirely
prosperous and is laying up money,
! proving in one case, at least, that a
woman farmer can succeed where a
! man did not do so, for her husband
/ died heavily in debt. Besides having
his obligations to pay, his widow had a
/ family of small children to rear, but
this brave, capable woman was equal
to all the demands on her.

It is strange that more women do not
carry on the business Of farming. A
woman of brains and determination
makes an admirable farmer. 1t is true
she cannot do the hard work a man
can, but the art of amassing money
consists not in hard work, but in utiliz-
! ing the hard work Of other people. This
| is profound truth.

The solar plexus is the largest nerve
center in the body. 1t is situated be-
hind the stomach, just above the waist.
It practically controls a large portion
| of the nervous system. Breathe deeply
and as you do so mentally send sensa-
ton to this solar plexus. This will
wake it up and develop it and increase
your nervous power if you persist.
"Wake up the solar plexus," says Eliz-
| abeth TOWne.
| The committee of revision on the ten
cts Of the Presbyterian faith have been
extremely busy and have recommend
| ed various changes. Gentlemen, while
you are about it wake up your solar
plexus and recommend also that the
word obey be stricken from your mar
rage service. The creed that a woman
must obey a man has long since drop
ped into desuetude among enlightened
people, and it is time to drop it out Of
! the Christian churches

It gives me very great pleasure to
make note of the fact that both house
and senate of the legislature of Wyo-
ming have passed a resolution heartily
| fndorsing woman suffrage and recon-
mending the acknowledgements of wom-
en- in every state and territory of the
Union "as a measure tending to the ad-
vancement of higher and better social
order" What is more, the legislature
requested the governor of Wyoming
to forward a copy Of the resolution to
the legislature of every other state and
territory in the Union, and the press Of
! the limited States was also asked to
