PRAISE FOR "NEW WOMAN"
Has 6roadened Her Sphere, Says
Eastern Maoazjne.

The new woman is simply the one
who by experience. education and
common sense, is qualified to make
the largest and best use of her capa-
bilities. She is more delightfully."- fem
mime than ever-the attractions of her
wonmanhood more charming. But
she is both disciple and apostle of the
gospel of health. She is gradually
breaking down the terrible conven-
tionality that has bound woman to
styles of dress. methods of life and
inane activity of mind and body which
heretofore fettered her fullest devel-
opment. Her marvellous individuality
seeks more freedom of growth and
expression. Nature makes no two in
dividuals alike. either animate or in
animate. and the new woman would
follow this universal law to a reason
able extent rather than submit to re.
preston of her individuality down to
the dead level of uniformity. Yet this
individuality is attained with tact,
a femininity, an intuitive appreciation
of public sentiment, which as as de-
licious as 1t is effective.-Good House.

Unsratefui State of Maine.

James G. Blaine. whose name was
so many years linked with Names
political fortunes, has no monument
erected to his memory in the state.
Shortly after his death there was an
effort made to procure funds for such
purpose, but the difficulty in getting
subscriptions was SO great that the
project was abandoned. The state
has not even claimed the remains Of
her once illustrious son and the body
is buried in Washington. In the ro-
tunda OF the statehouse is the bust of
James G. Blaine. done in pure white
marble. More than the usual interest
has been attached to this work of
art since it was learned that it has
never been paid for. Prof. G. Trenta-
move of Florence, Italy, made the
bust and it was placed in the rotunda
of the capitol in 1899. but up to this
day the sculptor has never received a

Authors Formidable Name.

Maarten Martens is an honorary
member of the Authors club. When
he came up for election it was, of
course, under his own rather formid-
able name-J. NJ. NJ. Van Der Poortch
Schwartz. There were many gasps
of amazement when the name was
read. for only few of the members
knew that this was the distinguished
Dutch novelist's cognomen. The late
Bill" Nye was present at the meet
ing and suggested that the member
ship committee act on the first half
of the name at once. but hold over
the rest until the autumn, when the
weather would be cool.

Pad for Fountain Pen.

A business woman who finds it nec-
essary to carry fountain pen wraps
it in piece of chamois and thereby
saves her handkerchiefs and other
feminine effects from many an ink
stain. However, the chamois soon be-
comes saturated with ink, stiff and un-
pleasant and must be renewed often.
A better case can be made of inch
wide ribbon lined with stockinette
rubber cloth and packed with a bit of
absorbent cotton at the leaky end of
the pen. This will keep the pen al
ways dry to the fingers. as the cot
ton can be changed without trouble
and the case itself need never be
soiled.
If you have a male friend who is ad-
dicted to the fountain pen nabit, you
can endear yourself to him by present
ing him with such case, and thus
saving his short ribs from many an
inlly bath whenever he happens to put
the pen upside down in his waistcoat
pocket.

Chinese screen which was presented
to her by Ii Hung Chang himself cne

artists rave when they were shown
Mrs. Potter's bric-a-brac. and it is
hoped the rare examples OF Japan's
oldest and youngest painters might

THE name originated in New Or

A druggist there whose soda fountain
was an extremely popular resort
found himself one Sunday without
the usual supply of tanks. through
some strike or other trouble, or else
he was unable to obtain ice, l forget
which. At any rate, he wasn't in a

in despair.
AN expert sign maker, he soon
had signs in his windows announcing
that in order to push 1t properly
nothing but the new Sunday drinks
would be served at his place that day.
His patrons were nothing loath to try
the simple combination Of ice cream
and sirups. and others were attracted
through curiosity. The new combina-
tion made hit. Before night it was
buzzed about in hundreds of homes,
and the next day the demand was
lively for that new Sunday drink.
Gradually other soda fountains began
dispensing it, the request for it con-
tinued, couched in the same form,
however, and 1t wasn't long before its
use in advertising caused the substitu
