Mrs. Russell Sage's Life
She Is a Domestic Woman

NM RS. Russell Sage is not only a
M domestic woman Of the most
IHE pronounced type but she is
Al1 philanthropist who manages her
charities, attending to all the
correspondence connected with them
herself. She tries to investigate as
many Of the cases personally as she can,
especially those who seem to be in the
direst need.
She is a prim, little, old lady, dressed
entirely in black, save for a small knot
of white ribbon at her throat. Her
hair is deliciately silvered by time and
she does it in rather prim little curls
over her forhead. She has firm chin,
high forehead, and rather alert eyes. She
has been Mr.. Sage's wife so long that
it is not generally remembered that he
has been married before. His former
wife, who was Miss Maria Whine, died
in 1867, after Mr.. Sage had moved to
New York, and two years later he mar
ried Miss Olivia Slocum, Of Syracuse,
who had been a friend and schoolmate
Of his first wife at Miss Emma Willard s
seminary at Troy. This seminary has al
ways been Mrs. Sage Is pet institution
and one to which her husband has made

The Termination Of Schools

opportunities for the higher education
Of women have increased rapidly Of
recent years, and in Great Britain and
the United States are or have been
greater than in other countries. With
reference to the difference between, Can.
ada and the United States, it should
be noticed that Canada has a smaller
proportion Of urban population than the
United States, and that the proportion
of male teachers, at least in the United
States, is greater in the rural districts
than it is in cities.
Other reasons for the preponderance
Of women in the teaching profession
readily suggest themselves Woman is
better fitted, by natural gifts, to do the
work Of the teacher than that Of the
lawyer, the physician, or the preacher.
Then, too, the standard Of admission is
not 50 high in this profession as in the
other learned professions, so-called. An

In 1870 two-thirds Of the teachers Of

countries also the female teachers OUT

recent years. In Great Britain the per-

fessior is practically the same as in the
United States; the exact percentages
are 1872 and 1874, respectively. In
France three-ffths Of tho. teachers are
female; in Italy and Cana9a about two
thirds. In Germany the MALE teachers
are in the majority, with 6S per cent,
but their proportion is declining. A

Plant Bulbs This Month

October is the time to plant every

make formal flower beds; to make new

It is not likely Mrs. Sage ever will
let it be known just how much she has
helped in the building of the New York
Women s hospital, now almost ready for
use. Mrs. Sage has been one of the
most generous contributors, but it is her
wish that she shall not be placed on a
higher plane than any other Of the pub
lic.spirited women who have aided in
the construction. The institution is to
be the most perfect of its character in
the United States and far ahead of any
old-world hospitals for women. Some
Of the amounts contributed have been
made pubHc-for instance, $4,000 from
Mrs. Andrew Carnegie and $4,000 apiece
from Mrs Malcolm Graham, Mrs. d. o.
Mills and Mrs. A. d. Juilliard. Miss
Helen Gould has not told how much she
gave, but it is probable her contribu-
ton equaled the largest of these
amounts. She is just as reticent as Mrs.
Sage about the exact figure of her bene-
faction. The wife of the veteran fnan-
-cier never has been restricted in the.
slightest degree by her husband, and

way of a donation, has been his.

She must not be a coward, either.
Not long ago school play was to be
presented. The rehearsals were over,
the evening had arrived, and the spec
tators were there. But one girl who
had an important part in the first act,
at the last moment refused to go on
the stage because her gloves were too
short. She sulked and pouted. Her
gloves did not reach the elbow. An
other girl, infected by her behavior,
discovered that her shoes had not the
right buckles. There was dismay be-
hind the scenes. Katharine and Elinor

The president of the class generally

Dear girl, it is impossible to define
charm in set terms. It is the perfume
of flower, it is the sweetness Of the
violet, it is the soft Simmer Of the
moon, it is the sigh of the surf when

who has charm steals into ones heart.

measurements, and, with cunning fin
gers, she makes a corset inside the
gown. There are many bones and in
front there is wide steel. The sides
are boned to perfection and the corset
laces down the back where the opening
is. When the lacings are completed the
gown is hooked by means of a flap;
This makes the figure very slender and
causes the gown to fit as though one
were melted into it. 1t is along these
lines that the new wedding gowns are
made.
A fashionable woman Of this city,
preparing to attend an elegant wedding,
ordered very fine gown for the event.
It's color was a silver gray and it's trim
mi min s.iO were peach, blow and white lace,
with rows Of dyed lace and rows Of
white lace overlapping. The gown,
which was princess, was very tight
fitting and was heavily boned. The
