ex-Spanish island. The society of
American women in London sent as
it's delegate Mrs. Templin Kent. The
most northerly womens club in the
world is the hourishing one at Cape
Nome. Alaska. One of its founders and
chief members is the Alaskan commits
sioner to the worlds fair, Mrs. Mary
Hart. There were also delegates, one
each, from Mexico and Hawaii Thus
it appears that the woman's club idea,
a distinctly American one, has been
tolerably well planted throughout the
world.
Altogether there are s66 clubs in the
general federation. The whole num-
Der of delegates and alternates at the
meeting was 1.243. OF these s97 were
entitled to vote. The largest delega-
ton (ninety) went from Illinois; the
second in size (forty-nine) from Ohio.
Several of the state delegations had
special trains. That from New York
city went cut with fourteen cars at

The delegates were grouped by states,

vention. Each state had its name and

of that convention hall The ushers
who led the delegates to their seats and
kept out these who had no claim to
admission were beautiful, refined young
st. Louis girls dressed in shining white
and this was the woman of it. No,
come to think, that assembling of the
General Federation of Women's Clubs
could not have been mistaken for a
mans political convention.
There are now half a million club
women in America. A comparison of
the proceedings at their earlier fedora
ton meetings with those at the last
one shows that the mental growth of
clubwomen in twelve years has been
equal to their numerical growth. In

CARE WILL KEEP HANDS
SMOOTH AND SLIGHTLY.

THE artistic ideal of a beautiful
hand requires that, besides a
slightly coIoring. it shall give the
impression of strength. skill and grace.
The hand is meant for use. and it can
not be really beautiful unless it con-
veys also a suggestion that it can be
used. The soft, helpless hand of a baby
is not attractive in a grown woman
Plainly, the hand must be used ac-
lively to make it strong and graceful.
At the same time one naturally wants
to keep it from being stained and stiff
ened in the way that is often incidental
to the doing of manual work say, for
instance, homework Undoubtedly
homework is at once the most useful
and healthful of feminine employments.
yet it is hard on the hands if one does
not take care of them.
1t is not impossible to have pretty
hands in connection with performing
manual labor or participating in siren
uous outdoor amusements First Of
all, of course, keep the hands clean as
possible. You cannot, however, be run
ming to wash them every half minute
if, for instance, you are digging in
flower beds Constant washing hurts
the skin of the hands But the use Of a
good, stin scrubbing brush is of great
value for the nails and fingers. "A small
ordinary scrubbing brush can be got
for a few cents, and it does the work
quite as well as a more expensive one
There are now mild securing SOAPS

CYCLING.
New York.

A lady writes: One of the drawbacks
to the back pedaling brakes is that
when of the coaster variety they are
apt to become noisy and act unevenly
if exposed to the action of dampness.
The one on my own hack machine after
being ridden a good deal in rain and
mud acted so powerfully that several
times it was nearly the cause of an ac-
cident. On complaint being made the
advice was given to "oiI the brake the
lubricant being injected into a tiny
hole just under the rear fork of the BIZ
cycle frame. The idea of such treat
ment was rather startling, but as it
proved in practice to be quite safe the
hint may be of service to those treu-
bled with noisy or too powerful brakes
of the same type. Rim brakes can also
be very tiresome after the machine has
been exposed to bad weather. If any
rust shows on the rim and causes the
brake to catch" the best plan is to
dust on a little chalk or else black
lead. which will mend matters. Rim or
band brakes should never be oiled, as
it destroys the friction, and the con-
nections with the hand lever are too
long to exercise a countera citing amount
of force. Rims that are out of truth
are also a fertile source of trouble. At
the beginning of the season it is mon
ey well spent to have any fault in the

DECLINE % MOURNING.

The recent statement that many peo-
pie nowadays have such a dislike Of
mourning that they frequently go
abroad Immediately after a funeral in
order to avoid the necessity for wear
ing it may be true of only a small sec
ton of society, but there is little doubt
that mourning is by no means so gen
orally worn as in days gone by. This.
of course, is only in accord with the
tendency of the age It is good many
years since we got rid Of the long Grape
hatbands which men and even small
boys wore on their heads on the occa-
sions Of funerals, and year by year
since then the trend of things has been
in the direction of less and less display
