THE woMANLY WOMAN.
GentIeness and Refinement Are the Chief Elements in Her
 Education.

The big American banquet hall of the Manhattan hotel was crowded with members of the Emma Willard association and their friends on the occasion of the thirteenth annual ban quet of the organization. Among the speakers were Chancellor MacCracken, Bishop Scarborough, of New Jersey, and Miss Spence, reports the New York Tribune, of recent date. Hun dreds of young men and women,' said Miss Spence, ''who have received their college degrees are not really edu- cated. They are thoroughly instruct ed, and perhaps amply equipped from a technical standpoint. But education means so much more than this. It means individual development, cul- ture. character. Tn every walk in llfe, to accomplish our purpose, we must know clearly at the start what we mean to do If colleges and schools would really succeed in turning out educated men and women in the high est sense of the word, they must hrst define that term. Is 1t to stand for nothing more than instruction in facts or other peoples ideas? Or Is 1t to include soul culture, life broadening and true development and efficiency! To ny Lind mothers are largely re- spoa~:ble for a ctild's Especially a daughters) aimless life. The sole de- sire of, alas! so many, is that their children shall have a good time while they're young. And this is right enough, but they should remember that the good time of the butterfly IS not necessarily the good time of the girl, and that the true good time and growth of character are not incompat- ible.
 "True womanliness should be one of the chief elements of a young wom- ans education. The unpardonable sins of womanhood are hardness and coarseness, dearth of gentleness and any guise of selfishness. A virtue that should be earnestly cultivated by the woman of to-day is a greater sheer ity in the manners and customs of society This is the contribution all true women should make to the so- ciety of their time. Society needs gen. tie women in the true sense of that word. Only that education is worth while which stands for service to the world--in some form, material or im- material and the latter is often the more real of the two. In fact, the ideal, whatever it be, is the real an oft said saying, but one as often forgotten in the details of daily life.
 "It is the privilege and no less the duty of every one who aspires to be called an educator to ever hold up this vision of the ideal, ever follow the gleam'-live the great revelation in the details of daily life."

AN UNLUcKY DEAL.
Illustrating the Mistake of Man Who Tries to Help Around
 the House,

When a married man gets out of his carpet, so to speak, the consequences are always more or less disastrous to him, says the Detroit Free Press.
 We've just moved" said an unhap- py-looking man in little neighbor- hood crowd of men who were buying their evening cigars at a corner to- bacco shop "Or, rather, we are half moved. Half our household truck has gone over to the new place, and half is still with us. Then I sold a lot, too. and got myself in awful hot water. You know how 1t is when man starts out in his own house to do things without asking his wife"
 "Oh, yes; we know" echoed all the others.
 'In our stable attic," the man con- tinued. I've had a lot of old stuff stored. I've heard my wife say dozen times that we must look 1t over and sell good deal of 1t the next time we moved. To-day she was over to the other house, and as was kind of stand ing round, not knowing where to take hold next, along came a junk man through the alley. I hailed him and took him up in the stable attic; there sold him an old table, an old high chair, a battered old crib and a car- pet. He gave me six dollars for the lot found box of old battered brass trays, plaques and picture frames after he was gone, and peddled those off at a nickel apiece to some neighborhood children who were tagging me around all day.
 'Of course, a man never really knows what he has sold until his wife tells him; and tomorrow I'm to chase all day after that junk man. I've sold our best parlor carpet, taken up when sum- mer came in, my wife's own highly treasured infants high chair and a crib which was also her mother's, and a real mahogany table she had stored away to have done over. She herself had paid nine dollars for the old table. and was glad to get it at that Old ta- bles are getting scarce, she says"
 "How about the brass objects?" some one asked.
 "Oh, I've got to go around and buy those back, too," the man replied, sad ly. They were high-art beaten brass nondescripts which my wife made her. self at the age of 13, and she says her mother wouldn't part with them for anything"
