AN ALARMING SYMPTOM.

"Patients often have such absurd

York Tribune. "Now there's the
subject of hemorrhages. I had pa

SOCIETY wOMEN's BABIES.

A young society woman of Chicago,
who played the part Of nurse girl and
governess in several cities, declares
that American women care no more
about the bringing up of their chill
dren than if they were SO many cat
tle." No superficial study of Amer
ican life by a society woman, or any
one else, can serve as an excuse for
such statement. Society women
are not invariably the most attentive
mothers. Nevertheless, there never
was, probably, a time when society
women gave more attention to their
children than they are giving now.
There never was time when the av-
erage American woman showed more
devotion to her children than she is
showing now.
There never was a time when Amer
ican mothers, rich and poor, studied
the needs of children more carefully
than they do now that children may
be properly fed, sensibly clothed, and
intelligently trained. 1t is notorious
that within the last ten years there
has been a steady improvement in the
standards of fashionable families as
regards child-bearing and child-train-
ing. There is abundant room for
more improvement, of course, but this
does not alter the fact that this much
progress already has been made.
How many young matrons today re-
ioice in their children How many
give up social functions that they may
give personal attention to their
babies
Anybody who cares tolook beyond
his own nose in his own neighborhood
knows how erroneous must be the
statement that American women care
no more about the bringing up of
their children than if they were so
many cattle. .-CAicagO Inter Ocean.

When I put my file back in my

social conditions +; they are like the
wind that 'bloweth whereit listeth, +"

EAGLE MATES BUT ONCE.

The married life of most birds could
be taken for model even by members
of the human family, says the Chica-
90 Tribune. There is, for instance,
the staid, dignified and homely bald
headed eagle-the glorious emblem
of the American Republic. He mates
but once and lives with his one mate
until he or she dies. If left wild
over even young widower-the
bald-headed eagle never mates again.
He remains alone and disconsolate in
the nest on the rocky crag or in the
branches of tail pine that formed
his domicile while his mate was alive.
No other female eagle can tempt him
to forsake his disconsolate life. With
him, once widower, always wild
over.
The golden woodpeckers live in a
happy married state, mating but once.
If the male dies his mates grief is
lasting, and she lives a widowed bird
the rest of her life. So, too, the
male woodpecker never seeks another
mate after the death of his own. He
raps on tree beside their nest dav
and night, trying to recall her then
at length, discouraged and hopeless.

his gayety.

A JOKE ON SOMEBODY.

Calling on maid one evening,
In the season Of good cheer,
William saw green decoration
Hanging on the chandelier.
William was bit near-sighted,
But you couldn't call him slow;
And he thought he knew his business
When he sighted mistletoe.
Then he up and kissed the maiden,
Kissed her for an hour or two,
But she merely smiled demurely
As shy maidens often do.
''Tell me why you smile2'' he asked her,
When they parted in the hall.
Really, can't you guess ?" she giggled-
That's not mistletoe at all ]"

and / know
"There is not a particle of doubt,
however, that women are coming to
the front. In this store they do
everything which has been given them
to do as we'll as man could do it.
The only exception l might make is
in the case of bookkeepers work
which in store of this size taxes a
woman's endurance to the utmost.
We have two lady bookkeepers, and
they find it very hard to stand the
constant strain which is put upon
them.
Whenever it is question of men
tai strength only, there is absolutely
no difference between the working
capacity and often the pay of the
sexes. There are any number of
women buyers who receive So, 900 per
year and over. A high-grade woman
buyer is as good as high-grade man
buyer. In some lines her judgment
is better than a mans.
"Still, 1 do not believe that women
will in the next fifty years hustle man
off the industrial stage entirely, al
though it is undoubtedly fact that
salaries for high grade work by wo-
men are on the increase.
'tIt is true that in certain lower
grades of our work we pay men more
than we pay women for the same
work. This is not only because men
as a rule have families to support,
while the women have only them
selves to look out for, but it is our
object to keep the men and their fam
lilies in the city.
ga man having family will not
leave Boston if he is getting fairly
good wages. 1t means more to him
to pull up stakes. A woman, on the
other hand, can much more easily
throw up a job here for something
only trihe better elsewhere or be-
cause of some social advantage which
she can get in another city, such as
Providence, perhaps, and not here !;
so that even if we paid them as much
as the men we could not depend on
them.
"Then, too, women will get married
and leave. Men get married, too,
but they don't leave. This lack of
permanency is against women.
"In the higher positions, that is,
positions of more than $40 per week,
there is less fear that either men or
women will feel tempted to migrate,
and the salaries for equal work are
equal.
"a So, 900 women is not likely to
marry, either. She is too contented
with her lot as it is.

capacity, keen perception and nice
judgement, and not for heavy physi-
cal strain I see actually no limit to
