WOMAN and
SOCIETY.

Sweet world, where the light falls in
showers.
When for me comes the shadows of
Night,
Forget not: in desolate hours
sang of Your Light.
When for me LIES last music is
dying.
And the dreams of eternity throng.
Forget not; saw in the signing
The soul of song.
Forget not, that day when Gods
will is
To silence the singing that mars,
The litanies sweet of your lilies
| read 70 your stars.
When that dim day men dread round
me closes,
Forget not how Love was my art.
And, giving to Grief all the roses.
Hid the thorns in his heart.
How meath heaven, unveiled in the
far light,
heard. as knelt on your sod.
With the daisy that dreamed in the
starlight
The footsteps of God
How read, on the plains of En-
deavor,
That Love still of Life is'the Lord;
That he is not Rewarder forever
But Himself Reward
VII.
O beg atiful world! Read my story
When Lifes wavering curtain shall
fall.
Not on the great heights of glory,
But I'm Love-that crowns all!

A HOUSEWIVES
COMMANDMENTS

To manage her household so that the
comfort, health and well-being of every
member shall be insured is a difficult
task for woman, and requires much
tact as well as domestic ability.
To accomplish this, she must make
it her aim:
To spend wisely as well as to save.
To choose and buy food which those
who eat will enjoy and which will be
suited to their needs.
To have this food cooked in such a
way that it will be agreeable, whole
some and digestible, and to have the
meals served punctually and in order.
To see that every part Of the home
is kept clean, always, because dirt is
degrading and brutalizing and leads to
disease and crime.
To see that all those for whom she
is responsible are suitably and com
fortably clad, and to study beauty and
becomingness in her own dress as well
as mere comfort.
To respect the rights Of others and
train her children and servants to do
the same.
TO do everything by example, by in
fiuence, by encouragement and by sym
pathy to make those who dwell under
The roof good and virtuous.
I To try to make all who come within
her reach happy.
70 permit no injustice, wrong or un.
kindness to be done even to the mean.
est.
To constitute herself the protector of
all who come under her roof, even the
dumb animals.
To seek to extend her influence be.
yond the four walls of her home; to
benefit those outside, because the best
use a woman can make Of her home
is to share its comforts with those who
have none.

A ROSE TRoUSSEAU
Pretty Fancy June Bride Has Carried
Out.

An original girl, who has recently
married, used the rose as motif Tor
her trousseau. The charming idea sug-
gested itself to her the day her engage
ment was announced. Her grandmother
presented her with a lace veil, rose
point. an heirloom in the family fog
many generations; an engagement pres
ent from an artistic friend was a set
Of china, hand painted, in pink roses;
the lover sent an armful or American
Beauties.
UWhy,'' said the girl. "they. are all
roses!" and, pink being her favorlte
color, she decided to carry out the rose
design In her trousseau.
The embroideries and laces for lin
gerie were not hard to find in rose pat
terms, and, being clever with her needle,
she embroidered many dainty garments
with buds and leaves. All the ribbons
were Of course pink. At the linen
stores dainty handkerchiefs were found
in the chosen design. The negligee
gowns were particularly pretty. One
was a pink silk kimona, the other, for
summer wear, lowered null, white
ground with pink roses and green leaves,
made fluffy with quantities of white
lace.
The table linen and towels were
chosen all in rose design. The table
cloths were unusually beautiful, plain
centers, with great sprays of blossoms
scattered over the cloth. The bride IS
girl friends gave her a linen shower,
and, knowing her preference, presented
her with mary exquisite pieces Of
needlework ir embroidered roses.

their work SO well that now the location
of the original vaults can only be
guessed at. In rebuilding the chaneel
many years ago the late rector, DR..

clares that Pocahontas was an Indian

then started in search Of the treasure.
She found point off Point Burwen
that she chose as center and mapped
out a square several miles long On each
side.
eff we drag that square just as a
farmer would plow his field we will find
the copper ship" she said.
And they did find it and Miss Baker
was the first one to go down and inspect
the wreck. For ten days the wreckers
were busy hosting the treasure, and
when the copper was sold Miss Baker
received $4,000 as her share.
More than once the girl diver has
been in danger Of death from some &C
cident to the air supply, but no peril
has been too great to diminish her infat-
uation for her profession. She OWLS a
handsome brick mansion, on one of the
fashionable streets in Detroit, but she
slips away from it every few weeks and
sails on her wrecking boat to add to her
rapidly growing fortune. The story of
her adventures is graphically told in the

The owner has been offered fabulous
sums for it's possession, but as he has
more money than even popular bach

always refused to rent it, until the king

\ IIss FRANCES BAKER of Detroit,

MISS FRANCES BAKER of Detroit.
IHl Mich, is the only woman SO far
known who is professional
diver, and in the three years she has
been at work, she has made almost
$4,000. Miss Baker is known all along
the Great Lakes as the Girl Diver and
her feat Of discovering and raising the
$4,000 worth of copper from the treas
ure ship w. H. Stevens, which sank
several years ago in eighty feet of water
in Lake Erie, has made her famous.
Miss Baker inherited her ability as
a diver, for her father is the greatest
captain of divers, that ever worked on
listened to her fathers tales of his ex-
periences under water and she hated to
think that she could never have equal
hairbreadth escapes Just because she
was a girl But as she grew older she
decided that her sex was no, obstacle
and there was no reason why there
shouldn't be a girl diver as well as
woman LAWYERS and architects and min
listers. She made trips with her father
to acquire experience and soon was able
to command a wrecking boat as well as
any man.
One day she was on the wrecking boat
that went to raise a. barge that had gone
down in fifty feet of water IN Lake
Huron. The owner was talking to her
and remarked incidentally that he had
left a diamond ring in his cabin that
he priced very highly.
"I'll get it for you exclaimed Miss
Baker And get it she did and the own
er of the ring was so impressed with her
fearlessness that he gave her the ring.
After this incident Miss Baker be-
gan regular to work as a diver. Divers
in the Great Lakes get from $50 to 5000
day, for ninety nine out of 100 divers
cannot stand work in the inland seas.
Miss Baker not only was able to live I'M
der the terrific pressure of the fresh
water sea, but she began to make plans
for raising sunken ships and cargoes in
way that showed remarkable ability.
It was thru her suggestions that the
W. H. Stevens was found after wreck
ing companies, sea captains and sailors
from every port on the lakes, had
hunted for it. The owners offered half
Of the valuable cargo to anyone who
would solve the mystery of its resting
place, but the boat had disappeared as
completely as tho the bottom Of the
lake had opened to receive her.
Miss Baker studied the story Of the
wreck carefully, made investigations in
regard to burning ships, calculated on
the gale the night Of the wreck, and

bought in this country, since it is
known that we are becoming the col
lectors of the world, it is with homelier
and less ornate articles Of this class
that our interest chiefly centers. When
the. Pilgrim fathers and mothers packed
their scanty belongings and slowed them
away in the hold Of the Mayfower,
their goods were mostly contained in
chests, stout ones, no doubt, and, I think
we can say, entirely guiltless Of carving.
These chests for use in travelling were
called ship chests or standards, and
were simple, box-like affairs, with locks
and no legs, and often with handles: !"
The first step in the evolution Of the
chest occurred when drawer was add
ed, and from this point Mrs. Moore
traces very interestingly and with the
aid Of many illustrations the successive
stages in the development of the chest,
by the addition of drawer upon drawer
and Of logs, to its highest expression in
the chest chest Of the eighteenth cen
fury, after which it merged into the
bureau.

of room to romp.
While Mr.. Dilley was alive he took
the cats to Atlantic /. City with him
every summer. For years he bought
shrimps by the case and chestnuts BY
the barrel for them, SO that they might
be sure Of having the dainties they
liked.
In addition to her salary, Miss Ruch
has the use Of two floors in the house
and heat, light and medical attendance
are provided. In case she dies before
the cats, the executors are to find a
reliable person who will devote her
life and strength to the care Of Blackie
and Pinkie.
So great was his love for Blackie and
Pinkie that Mr.. Dilley left 5000 to a
man who once wrote several verses
about them. At the death Of the cats
and their faithful nurse, the fortune
that was left them is to be expended
in a drinking fountain for the use
of human beings, animals and birds.

STORY OF THE CHEST

Writing on "The Evolution Of the
Chest, in the July Delineator, N. Hud-
son Moore gives mass Of information
in regard to this useful article Of fur
niture, which is interesting to others
than collectors. Beginning in Italy,
she says, where elegance and beauty
fourished long before they reached the
ruder peoples Of northern Europe, we
find the. chest was a necessity in every
household. The earliest bank Of deposit
instituted for the accommoda Of
private merchants was at Barcelona in
1401; SO it can be readily seen what
an important article a chest was, Like
almost everything else Of Italian origin,
these carved chests were extremely
beautiful, whether Of the Gothic period
or Of the more sumptuous Renaissance
and later. But while these chests are
interesting in every way, and to be

FIRST VACATION SCHOOL
Mrs, Livermore s Childish Experience
Has Been an Example.

the e late Mrs. Mary A. Livermore, who
passed away recently at the age OF "a
in Boston, was the originator Of the va
cation school idea. Inventive and Ter
tile in resource, even as girl, she was
largely endowed with initiative and
strong sense Of responsibility. The
help, not hindrance, to her parents
(who, tho not poor, were not largely
blessed with means), appears to nave
been inherent and almost irrepresslble.
Moreover, Mrs. Livermore displayed IN
girlhood very considerable degree OF
executive ability.
Her independent, forceful spirit led
her when she was only Ii years OF age
into an educational enterprise in the
planning and establishing of a vacation
school, into which she gathered some
121S cents week for care and instruc-
ton.
The interesting part of this expert,
ment was that it was entirely. foated
and set afoot without consultation with
her parents, the active young girl ex-
pecting to be able quietly to conduct
her establishment and surprise her home
people with the financial results.
A schoolmate who had been taken
into partnership taught the little flock,
boys included, to sing, sew, knit and
work samplers accomplishment in
which the head of the school was la
mentally deficient. She reserved for
herself the mental training Of the little
ones. And it was when busily engaged
in teaching the alphabet to a class of
4-year-olds that her mother, whose ma.
ternal insight led her to suspect that
something unusual was going on, walked
into the little schoolhouse unannbunced
removed her bonnet and prepared to
spend the morning.
| Much to the delight of the youthful,
sci school teacher, the parental approve
was highly pleased with her child Is
practical energy and warmly praised the
