Women and Clubs.

The president of Bowdoin College "a minister-told the graduating class of Bryn Mawr college on Sunday that when they go into the world they should net rush into clubs, but rather take up the "homely duties" that lie at their doors.
 There are clubs and clubs, but the women's clubs. throughout the country are doing much to make women more confident, more capable of self-support. and more appreciative of the neces- sity of helping others. A woman can be a club member and at the same time give all attention to her "homely duties" What the women need is some diversion from these "homely du- ties" They need to get away a bit from the humdrum routine and the wearing monotony of mere household affairs. They need to get an under standing of other things, so as to be able to cope with new conditions as they develop-to keep informed as to what the world is doing.
 Womens clubs have in view the widening of the intellectual faculties. and thus they serve a most excell ent purpose Education is the basis of most women's clubs, and they tEus stimulate the mind while furnishing recreation for the body. To place the ban upon women's clubs with one sweeping remark is to confess ar ig- norance of the good work-along tre lines of civic reforms and educational methods, accomplished by these CIuts. Many cities have felt the good effects of womens clubs, and woman has work to do outside of the facilitating humdrum of mere housekeeping.
 One of the most active and energetic women of recent years-AIrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton-was considered |, tyPi- cal club woman, yet she was one of the most lovable of women and Ter AHme life was one to which her children can always look back with ,nalloyed pleasure. Club work and universal suffrage did not make Mrs. Stanton any less a loving and thoughtful mother. She found time to look after the "homely duties" and to stretch out a helping hand to other women who needed encouragement to make their burdens lighter.

GOO a day of the St. Petersburg esti- mate. Given 15O.COO men on the ground on Feb, s. and a daily re-enforcement of 500 men. it was clear that by the middle ct May the numbers in the far east wouIG reach the total of about 29O.OOO; and if to these we add some 14.OO0 reserves, locally incorporated, we are sufficiently close to the figures previously arrived at by a study of the war strengths of units known to be on the spot.
 A Russian army corps of the western pattern numbers all told 41,000 men with 124 guns, inclusive of it's cavalry division, and has with it 3.717 carria ges and 1000 horses.
 The above number of men, horses. carriages and guns require for their transport to the east PIG trains. and would occupy the entire military traffic leaving the east bank of Lako Baikal for thirty-seven days. If the first train left Moscow on June 1, if would reach Mukden about June 6, and ;he corps would be completely concentrated on Aug. 13, thus monopo- lizing the entire traffic for two months and a half.
 Even if the corps were made less mobile, and the cavalry division eX- cluded, the concentration would not be effected before the end of July. It is further evident that no such monopoly of traffic is possible, the circumstances of the army being. what they are; and thus the intervention of even a single complete and fully mobilized army corps from the west presents difficulties next to insurmountable.
 When disease shall have taken a firm hold on the troops at. the front, it Is not unreasonable to estimate that 500 men daily will be required to re- place the invalids, the wounded and the dead; so that if Russia succeeds in increasing her army beyond strength of half a million men she will accomplish a miracle in the eyes ot those most familiar with the limi;a tions of the Trans-Siberian road.
 It becomes more and more evident that Russia must re-establish herself on the sea if she is to gain a decided victory over Japan.

Public and Private Morals.

It is rather the usual thing to find old men complaining that the world is growing worse instead of better. Very rarely will any of them admit that men and morals are improving. It is en- courasing, accordingly, when a man so we'll informed and so far advanced in years as Senator Hoar frankly admits that the world is growing better Not even MT. Cleveland or MT. Roosevelt has deplored more frequently than MT. Hoar the evil tendencies of the present day, but the venerable senator from Massachusetts believes that these ten dencies are confined to certain classes to society" and to the suddenly rich and that our citizenship in the mass is of a higher standard than ever be- fore.
 In an article in Golfers Weekly for June 4, Senator Hoar discusses Pub lie and Private Morals" and points out that the reader is to understand by morals the rules of conduct which govern men in the ordinary social rela- tions, which do not, in general depend for their sanction on religion on the one hand or the law of the state on the other. They must be general rules. depending for their sanction on the sense Of duty, overcoming the desire of the moment if they are in conflict with it. The standard of private morals must be measured by the ponion of
