tinguished place in Newman col
lege, Cambridge.
Miss Helen Gladstone is distinctly
what is known as IAN interesting
woman" Those who know this
daughter of the famous statesman,
and who stood little in awe of her
when she was Newnham's vice prin-
cipal, speak now of the gentleness in
her nature which contact with the
needy folk of Nelson square, where
the settlement is located, seems to
have magnifed.
Oddly enough, there is striking
likeness between Miss Gladstone and
another woman whose name is as
ISOLATED with philanthropy in the
East End of London. Two faces
could scarcely have more similarity
than the rugged countenances of
Helen Gladstone and Mrs. Bramwell
Booth, of Salvation Army fame.
Miss Gladstone gave up her position
a. vice principal of Newman, the
woman's college in Cambridge uni
versfty, to spend what proved to be
her fathers last year of life with
him. The gifted woman devoted her
self to her fathers correspondence.
She was, really, his unofficial secre-
tary and scarcely left him for a day.
Throughout her life Miss Gladstone
was the grand old mans companion
on his travels, she was his contidante
and his closest friend. She is said
to have been even more congenial
to him than was his wife, her mother.
Miss Helen Gladstone's career at
Cambridge was notable for good
MANY reasons. 1t was there she was
intimately associated with that bril-
liant sister of Arthur Hugh Clough,
principal at Newman. The two
women did much more than merely
manage Newman college during
those years they worked together.
Miss Gladstone was president of the
Cambridge woman's liberal associa-
ton. and both she and Miss Clougl.
are keenly bent 'on raising the gem
eral standards for the education OF
women in England. They are two
of the people responsible for con-
dition now most flattering to the
women of England. The secondary
education of English girls Chat lead
ing up to college work. is considered
1T the present time superior to the
opportunities given boys.

at several points in excavating
through the stone formation. At one
point few days ago the diamond
drill struck large cavern and
dropped out of sight. 1t was found
necessary to. blast into the cave and
then fill it up with earth and rock
in order to make the grade substan-
tial.
While the cause of right-handedness
is subject of dispute, artists and
others often work with the two
hands alternately, and the idea is
gaining ground that ambidexterity is
an accomplishment that should be
cultivated. Physicians are even con-
tending that it aids the general
health. Children in Japan are early
taught to write and draw with both
hands, and German schools are now
making left-hand work during a part
of the time compulsory. But little
practice is necessary to give the left
hand proficiency in the use of saw.
plane, hammer, ETC., as we'll as in
writing.

HONEY IS WHOLESOME.
Curui.hes Some Elements Of M
triton a. Starch and Sugar and
Imparts Energy.

It is a fact generally known that
starch and sugar must undergo di-
pestive change before they are assim-
ilated. But it is not so generally
known that in honey this change has
been made to considerable extent by
the bees. A writer in Health explains
that honey is easy to assimilate, is con-
centrated, and furnis hes the same ele-
ments of nutrition as starch and su-
gar, imparting warmth and energy.
As a medicine, honey has great
value and many uses. 1t is excellent
in most lung and throat affections, and
is often used with great benefit in
place of cod-liver oil. Occasionally
there is q person with whom it does
not agree, but most people can learn
to use it with beneficial results. Chill
dren who have natural appetites gen.
orally prefer it to butter. Honey is a
laxative and sedative, and in diseases
of the bladder and kidneys is an ex-
cellent remedy.
1t has much the same effect as wine
or stimulants, without their injurious
effects. and is unequaled in mead and
harvest drinks. AS an external appli-
cation it is irritating when clear, but
soothing when diluted. In many places
it is much appreciated as remedy for
Group and colds. In preserving fruit.
the formic acid it contains makes a
better preservative than sugar strip,
and it is also used in cooking and con-
fecti,1s. Honey does not injure the
teeth Is candies do.

MRS. GROVER CLEVELAND.
wife Of Ex-President Will spend
Winter in New York Where She
IL Very Popular.

The announcement is made that
Mrs. Grover Cleveland, having seen
her four babies out of the nursery.
will spend 2 greater part of the win
ter in New York, mingling in it's
life of gayety.
That Mrs. Cleveland will be more
than cordially received is fact that
goes without emphasis, says the Chi
cago Chronicle.
No woman is surrounded in the
public mind with greater degree of
interest and romance than Mrs.
Cleveland.
At the age of 81 she married the
chief executive of the United States.
During the decade that followed
she peopled the white house with
little folks, making the historic walls
ring with their laughter for the very
first time in their history.
Other presidents had children that
were related to them distantly, or
were borrowed children. But in this
case the baby carriages were for the
use of the babies of the president
and his wife and the rattles, the go
carts, the baby jumpers and the small
pets were intended for Baby Ruth.
Baby Marian, Baby Esther and their
small friends.
Mrs. Cleveland during this time
distinguished herself by her hospital
ity and by the elegance of her
gowns. No woman since Queen Eliza
beth dressed with such superb taste.
Her embroideries, her trains, her jew
els and her color schemes were the
work of the best modistes on both
sides of the water.
It is probabl that she did not dress
expensively, but she was college
girl, and college education certain
~ does tell. No Smith woman, de-
voted to art, ever achieved greater
triumphs than were those that fell
at the feet of Mrs. Cleveland the
while she was queening it in the
white house. She was the first lady
of the land, and no less in matters
of dress than in other things.
Aside from her personal taste and
individual elegance. Mrs. Cleveland
had beauty; she was really pretty,
and this helped out the whole.
But at no time in her career could
Mrs. Cleveland, then or now, be said
to be popular. She has great dis
taste for notoriety, and has never.

given to the public her opinions upon
this or that. She refused certain ia
vors to the woman's suffragists; she
would not become a white ribbon
woman; she declined to identify her
self with any form of woman's work,
and so she made many enemies.
To-day Mrs. Cleveland is living a
very elegant life innthe beautiful old
town of Princeton, not far from the
college. Here her husband enjoys the
rural pastimes for which he will be
famous in history, and here Mrs.
Cleveland presides over menage
which is distinguished for its quiet
house, finely situated in the heart
of Princeton, affords the setting for
display of hospitality which is taxed
to it's utmost all the year round.
Mrs. Cleveland has fine turnout,
and in this she takes her family to
drive with the boy Richard now add
ed to the little group. After lunch
con, at which there are always we'll
known guests, Mrs. Cleveland has her
afternoon at home or goes calling,
and later the dinner is served, q
function which in the Cleveland fam
lily is marked with dignity that
amounts almost to splendor.
Mrs. Cleveland preserves her ira
ditions in the matter of dress, and
while she assumes a Dutch simplicity
in attending to the affairs of her
own household, she gowns herself
with fine taste, which is the admira-
ton of all who visit the Cleveland
home.
Mrs. Cleveland is prominent in sew
eral New York charities, her favorite
being kindergarten work on the
East side. While not a slum worker
by any means, she takes a womanlv
interest in matters that pertain to
the education of children and the
placing of education in the reach of
the very poor.
Mrs. Cleveland is now about 80 wears
old. She has gained in weight, and in
stead of being the spindling girl she
was when she went to the white
house, she is woman of fine figure
and broad bearing.
If Mrs. Cleveland carries out her
intention of mingling in the society
life of New York she will leave behind
her at home her husband, for Mr..
Cleveland is not society man. and
dancing function bores him, while
the formal reception is to him a
thing of acute torture.
