Plump Girl students.

In couple of months from now" said
woman who was matron at a women's
college for several years, there will be a
flood of letters from girl freshmen to their
mothers, all containing one complaint I'm
growing so fat that my clothes won't 1T
me- And the mothers will worry and fret
and wardrobes will be sent home to be let
out.
Freshmen at a women's college always
grow very plump. and they astonish their
friends and relatives when they 20 home
on their first vacation by the amount Of
flesh they have put on. And it is all due
l believe. to the healthy, normal life that
a girl leads at college.
THE food is always palatable, nourishing
and of the best, and even the most finicky
maiden learns to eat everything. I have
seen girls who entered college with the idea
that they could eat nothing but the white
meat OF chicken and lemon ice contentedly
eating fried veal and onions a few weeks
later.
And these meals are always served at
a regular time and with plenty OF lively
conversation to make them digest easily
Let me say right here. too. that the popu-
lar notion that college girls have midnight
spreads of indigestibles is a wrong one.
Such things belong to a boarding school,
but not to a women's college.

Purifying Public Life.

Many of the women of Philadelphia have
organized for the purpose OF assisting in the
political reform that Is now in order in
that city. The name of the organization is
the woman's Committee for the City Party.
The meetings will be held for the most part
in the parlors OF the members, the first
meetings having been held in the college
club rooms. Miss NJ A. Burnham is the
president and among other prominent men,
bers of the committee are Mrs. owen Wis
ter and Mrs Louis Baily. In the meetings
held in the parlors in different parts Of the
city, the issues now before the people will
be discussed and all women interested in
civic reform will be asked to join, there
being nothing partisan about the meetings
The women attending the meetings will talk
to the women of their neighborhoods and
urge them to use their persuasive powers
upon their husbands and brothers and upon
all other voters with whom they may have
any business or social relations. The women
have decided that they will have no stump
speaking nor any house-to-house canvass,
and their meetings will be only for the
members OF their own sex. There will be
weekly meetings Of the central body and
the executive committee viii meet evry
day Tn wards will be organized as far as
possible and the women will use only the
weapons OF persuasion in their campaign.
Naturally the women have made consider

He is Jonas Herring, and he lives at 1902

II his hopes are realized he will have sew

Herring has six daughters and one son,
and he holds to the opinion that every mar

children into the world.
To further HIS ambition he has con-
structed an apartment house adjoining his
home where his daughters and his son may
live to exemplify the beauties Of his doc
trines.
The cost OF the building was $4,000. Il
has ten apartments, with room for two
families on each floor. Mr.. Hering's two
married daughters will occupy the second
floor. The next to embrace matrimony will
take the third floor, and so on up.
The married daughters are Mrs. Christian
Besaner, q years OF age. with four chill

Greek Costumes.

Two London maidens have taken Dame
Fashion at her word as few ladies Of either
high or low degree on either side of the
water would quito dare. Hearing that the
worlds arbiter of dress had said il should
be a go-as-you-please season they believed
she meant 1t and passing by all the periods
named for either Louis or any empire they
ordered gowns made in the way that Greek
maidens wore them centuries ago. When
the gowns came home they put them on
and wore them to the opera. II they ex-
pected to create a sensation they were not
disappointed. One wore leaves of the vine
about her head and the other confined
her locks with a golden hllet. About them
their draperies fell in sinuous folds. On
their feet were sandals, and they wore
stockings. also. So there was no shock
for those who wanted to be shocked at their
appearance. But the general result which
fell upon the women who looked on was
a desire to go and do likewise.

The heart OF the American woman al

upon" declared Miss Mather, amid a storm
OF handclapping. There is q tendency
throughout the United States for families
to get away from homes and home duties
and to live in hotels" she went on. There
is a tendency to live beyond the income
You clubwomen must be the ones TO stem
this tendency.

The completely Of modern life has re-
duced the Joy OF living To a minimum. There
would be fewer entertainments and defalca-
tons IL the housewife understood the value
OF a dollar. Few women know how much
their husbands can afford to have them
spend and most women on the topmost rung
Of the social ladder are living beyond their
income.
Not long ago a girl would have felt she
was doing well financially IL she married
man with an income of $500 TO 5000 year
Nowadays girls expect their husbands to
begin at the place their parents left off. I
have heard men with large incomes say
they had not the nerve to ask a girl to
marry them until they could give them as
much as their parents hao given them.
They forget that possibly II took the girls

Miss Mather urged that every wife son
and daughter be given an allowance. no
matter how small, TO teach them the prin-
ciples Of economy and the value Of money
She said that out of hundreds Of families
with whom she had come in contact she
had failed to find a single one in which the
daughters and sons were given allowances
and only one in which the wife had an in

LAS many women do not know what their

Miss Mather urged that children be given
work in the home and be paid for it in
order to give them an appreciation Of the
dificulty of making money. Let your
children earn something by working for It
and they soon will learn the value Of
money" she said. Then they will not
grow up to be spendthrifts."

women with Federal job.

It is more than forty years since Gem
eral Spinner, who has been called the
father of the employment of women in
the federal SERVICE" found plnces for q
few women in the Treasury department at
Washington. He was then treasurer Of the
United States, and there was a great dearth
of eligible employees in consequence OF the
drafts made upon the young men of the
country by the civil war. General Spinner
proposed the employment of women in
place Of men, and the idea which he started
has gone on almost uninterruptedly since.
but not to the extent that is popularity
supposed.
BY the last government report It appears
that there are $4,000 men in the federal
service Of the government as clerks, bureau
chiefs and messengers, of whom not one
half receive $3.50 a year or less.
There are 1880 women and girls in the
federal departments, of whom $3.50, some-
what more than half, receive less than S72C
a year. OF this number 1000 are in the
postoffice service, 1850 in the Treasury de-
partment, 1900 in the bureau Of engrav-
ing and printing, 1000 in the Indian serv-
ice, $50 in the government printing office,
209 in the War department, $50 in the PEN
sion ONCE. eighty-six in the Navy depart
ment, 797 In the Department of Agricul-
ture and nineteen in the Department Of
State.
Less than 10 per cent Of the federal en-
ployes are women, and a great majority of
them hold minor positions at small pay.
An cutlery was made after the close Of the
civil war by those who feared that by the
employment of women and girls men were
deprived of fair chance Of livelihood in
Washington. but the fact is that the num-
Der of men has increased very much more
largely than the number Of women in fed
eral departments during the last twenty
five years

tributes to the plumpness Of the girls.
college girls stay indoors only when
they have to. and plenty Of fresh air makes
them strong and muscular. The gym

man is examined that she may get the

Under all these conditions the fresh
men rapidly grow plump and rosy, and
this plumpness they rarely lose during their
