we must keep our feet on the earth; we know that
goodness is expedient. We know these things. not,
If you will remember. because our fathers and
mothers told US so Though doubt they wasted
their breath in such Instruction.. but because by
hard knocks, by snarting scars by many falls we
learned the truth Of life We remember how hard
II was TO learn lesson, and instinctively we
would save the children from such pain. There are
very few fathers and mothers who, after a warn
ing that fire burns. stand by and see the chill
dren blister their fingers and learn their own les
son Very few fathers and mothers have the nerve
for this Instead they fitch the birthright Of pain
from the children by tirnid tenderness, perhaps
even a selfish tenderness, that will not let them
suffer.
THE limitation Of material experience has often
a spiritual limitation following at its heels told
my boy not TO eat a peach, the mother says, and

gain clear conception OF the relative. merits of
different systems Of punishment and reform.
Mrs. Blackwell made thorough inspection Of
the Sherborne Reformatory, in Massachusetts;
the Mercer, in Toronto, Canada; and the Bedford
in New-YOrk State. The first is the oldest, and
the last probably the youngest of these institu-
tons having been established in May, 1901. The
Mercer Reformatory is modelled upon the Sher-
borne which has the advantage Of the others in
door work. owing TO the extent Of its farm
land; but IS somewhat over rigid in its rules and
regulations. The Bedford Reformatory, Mrs
Blackwell thought a model institution, the super
intendent, Miss Davis, possessing unusual wisdom
and resource, in providing occupation for the in
mates. and maintaining discipline without undue
restriction. The cottage system prevails, and the
women are graded according to behavior the best
among them being promoted to the cottages. Mrs
Josephine Shaw Lowell established fund for
straw weaving. and beautiful baskets and hats
made. There is also weaving Of rugs and carpet

all the refOrmatories- The physical exercises are

more costly than jais. but much money is saved
the State by the incalculable Improvement of
the inmates in character and usefulness.

HOMES WITHOUT SERVANTS.
Debate on Ideal Domestic Conditions at
Political Education League.

Can the ideal home exist without servants?
Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Stetson Gilman and Mrs.
Horace c. Deming debated this interesting question
yesterday forenoon at the League for Political
Education. Mrs. Gilman. in presenting the af-
hrmative side, expressed many views which are
familiar to the readers of her books. Her argu-
ments were based the thought that housekeep-
ing is the last OF the crafts TO be raised to the
dignity and status of a calling. Already most Of
the functions which formerly centred in the
home. such as weaving, dyeing. soap making, the
manufacture OF furniture the professions OF medi-
cine and teaching, bread making. butter making.
preserving. sewing. etc. have been taken out of
the home. she said. and she urged the feasibility
OF removing the kitchen. too. the last of the old
occupations.
She advanced her favorfte theory to the de-

house, and Of having the inevitable labor Of the
house done by specialists who should come in at
so much hour. for specified length Of time
daily. She urged the Of commercially prepared
foods and showed how they were in themselves a

was pleading-an ideal home without servants

REPORT FROM ELM CITY BRANCH

The New-Haven Comm branch. of which Mrs

a most successful railroad whist to which local
paper refers follows:
The Tribune Sunshine Society fund Is bigger
because OF the strenuous effort of these New

In any dictionary they buy borrow. When
they do anything they do it with full strength and
boundless energy. and their achievements invari-
ably exceed anything attempted by anybody else
At the recent regular meeting Of the society just
previous 10 the whist party there were forty-eight
members present. and plans for shedding sunshine
IN many homes at Christmas time were discussed.
Speaking of the work the society is doing in New
Haven, newspaper Of that town says; 1T has
the hearty sanction Of the city missions and the
organized charities, and the officers of the society
can make the proud claim that in the years work
since the organization formed they have only
made one error Of judgment in assisting any un-
