Feminine Occupations in the Orient.

There are many openings in the
Orient for n ventursome woman who is
not afraid to enter upon untrodden
paths in search of new occupation.
In Turkey, Cyprus, Syria and Crimea
all sorts of knick-knacks, such as peck
ct knives, scissors, housewives. toys
and hundreds of small household arti-
cles, have been introduced as the re-
suit of European influence, and the de-
mand for these trifies is so greatly in
excess of the supply that fine field
awaits the woman who takes up the
work of going to the houses OF native
women with such wares. The women
of the Orient do not like to attempt
shopping in the stores, hence the neces-
sity for a visiting trader.

Moman,s PInco in Golf.

When women in America first began
to play golf they were allowed at many
of the big clubs to use the links only
mt certain hours on certain days when
1T was thought that their presence
would not incommode the Lords of
Creation.
The first courses laid out in America
Were very short, and consequently
easy. That of the Morris County Club.
one of the finest in the country then.
as now, had in those days but seven
holes, and not one of them was over a
drive and iron shot in length. The
women were therefore able to reach
them with drive and brassey, and so
Were as well off as the men. and their
scores soon began to compare very fa-
vOrably with those of their masculine
competitors. This was also true of
other courses and clubs. and the WON
en- naturally asked for the privilege OF
playing at any and all hours. urging
as an excuse their ability to make low
scores.
After much hesitation and head shak-
ing on the part of those men who.
never having had sisters. had no idea
OF the physical capabilities of girl,
permission was granted.
The women took their hardly won
permission with joy, and proceeded
to demonstrate that they could play
good golf by taking on their detractors
for a round and soundly beating them.
From that day women have had an IN
disputed place on the links. and for the
past three or four years it has been es.
teemed an honor for even the amateur
champion TO be asked to play in a
mixed foursome by any one of dozen
of our leading women players.-Golf.

we do, how little the excess of their
fortunes really does for them. In the
retrospect it seems 10 me as if the
ship that carries our fortunes had once
been half disabled by storms, but had
outridden them. and were well on its
way TO port. More wealth strength
and virtue are yet to be attained, and
in the struggle against evils we shall
gain moral stamina. There are con
tests enough still in progress to give

that the area of greatest danger has
