You have to take Il seriously. because
It stands, really, for good sense and
comfort and is smart just by chance.
And so il is worth living up, or rather,

few very simple things than any girl
can do every day of her life. without
instruction. that will count lot in inn

She can learn to stand and walk and
sit correctly. and these things will from
the first day prove beneficial. And
they are all so easy and normal.
She should stand with her spine
straight, her hips back, abdomen
drawn TO line with waist. chest high.

This pose should never be lost in
walking or sitting. Don't telescope
when you sit down. It's neither rest

let your shoulders. not the hollow OF

though you had springs in your hips,

down.
Having the right pClse Of the body,
hold it when you walk. Step lightly
on the balls of the feet. and take an
easy. fairly long, swinging step.

are other expressions of lofty feminine
ideals equally convincing TO admiring

ethical standards will be unshaken.
And learn to breathe right.
The New York girl gets her splendid
lung capacity from her outdoor life
She breathes right, because in the main
she lives right. but there is no reason
why every girl should not know to use
her lungs and improve her health and

If your chest is held high, as is nee
essary for correct standing. then you
have the proper position for good
breathing. At the start regularly prac

A Short Cut TO Marmnladc.

To slice oranges and lemons in the
process Of making marmalade, there
Is nothing better than an ordinary car
penter's plane, an instrument which Is
found in almost all households in the
larger or smaller form. The older
wooden planes are preferable, as they
do not discolor the fruit as the more
modren all iron plane would do. To
use, invert the plane over the pan in
which the marmalade is to be made.
Take the whole fruit and move 1t back
and forth over the knife, removing the
seeds as they appear. This will give
slices equal to those made with the
very expensive marmalade machine,
though with slightly more trouble, but
much more quickly and easily than
with an ordinary knife. The plane
blade should be sharp and properly
adjusted before commencing the slic-
ing. An individual once trying this
short cut will never use the ordinary
kitchen knife again, for the ease and
rapidity with which the fruit is sliced
Is marvelous.-Boston Cooking School.

Women ns Artists.

One OF those connected with the art
department of the st. Louis Exposition
Is quoted as saying:
"Woman will stand on an equality
with man at the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition. No special classification in
exhibits is made for woman's work,
and no building as at Chicago. but in
all the manifold rami6cations of ex-
position work woman participates.
Woman will hold place in the juries
of award. Woman sculptors and
painters have done some of the finest
work on the Exposition buildings.
Women have had places on Govern
ment, State and other boards in the
collection of exhibits and in the ex-
ploltation of the Exposition. There
are even women concessionaires. and a
woman contractor competed with men
in the actual physical construction of
the Exposition"

Whit Girls Cnn DO.

"I am only a girl What can I do?"
is the exclamation one frequently hears
when some fair young creature is
urged to bestir herself and accomplish
some good for those about her. 1t is
such girls as these who fail to realize
that it is the girl who does things in
this world who is attractive, both to
men and to her own sex, which last
counts little, too, in the long run.
You may not be able to do great things,
to paint great things or to sing in grand
opera, but you can learn to make bright
little things for yourself and your
friends, and perhaps to play the light,
''catchy" airs of the day so that your
friends will enjoy them. and If you
can't do anything else cultivate the art
of talking brightly and of being SYM
pathetic.
Every girl can do one thing we'll If
she will only take the trouble to find
out what that thing is. The difficulty
is that she often looks in the opposite
direction; she wants to do something
great and snowy or nothing at ALL But
there are other talents within reach II
she will only look, and these talents
may be such comfort to her in her
dark hours that they will make life
better and happier both for her and
those about her.

TELLS ABOUT THE 1894
CHICAGO STRIKE
HE BECAME ELOQUENT
And Also Roasted Gov.
ernor AItgeId.

Princeton, NJ j., May 2.-Before an
enthusiastic audience Of university
students, faculty members and many
visitors from near by cities, former
president Grover Cleveland delivered
tonight in Alexander hall, lecture on
"The Government in the Chicago
Strike OF 1894"
The former president was in unusu-
ally fine voice, and not a word of his
discourse was missed. Often while
speaking in justification of himself
and his advisers Mr.. Cleveland exhibit
ed forcefulness unsurpassed by Tie
many brilliant orators who have spob-
en- from the same platform.
"In the last days of June, 1894, a
very determined and ugly labor dis
turbance broke out in the city of Chi
cago. Almost in night it grew to full
proportions of malevolence and dam
ger. Rioting and violence were Its
early accompaniments, and it spread
so swiftly that within few days 1t
had reached nearly the entire western
and southwestern sections of the coun-
trv
THE carriage of the United States
mail was interrupted, interstate COM
merce was obstructed and railroad
property was riotously destroyed.
"The key to dispatches to the fed
eral officers at Chicago from the attor
ney general may be found in the self
defensive authority of our nation to
directly overcome resistance to the
exercise of its legitimate and legisla-
tional function as related to the trans
portation of mails, the operation of
inter state commerce and the preser-
vation Of the property of the Unite,
States, and in certain legislational and
statutory provisions. 1t was the in
tention of the attorney general to
suggest In these dispatches
that immediate and authori-
tative information be given
to the Washington authorities IL
time should arrive when, under tn =
sanction of general executive author
ity or the legislational provisions, I
military force would be necessary at
the scene of the disturbance"
Speaking Of Governor Altgeld, in the
contingency which then arose, Mr..
Cleveland said:
This official not only refuesd to re-
gard the riotous disturbances within
borders of his sIate as a sufficient
cause for AM application to the fer
eral government for its protecti.h
| against domestic violence under
the mandate of the legislation but pro.
tected against the presence of federal
troops sent into the state upon the
general governments initiative and
for the purpose Of defending itself in
the clearly defined exercise of its le-
| gitimate functions"
