Lured by the science Of medicine, she

valuable experience.
She afterward began her medical educa-

What Women Are Doing the Industrial and Household Worl

its keynote from the universal chorus in
praise of woman The great trinity that
governs the newspapers is the dollar poll
tics and woman. To the great American
woman" leading articles are constantly de-
voted. She is continually exalted as the
most beautiful, wise and charming woman
in the world. Woe to him who does not add
his voice to this chorus of praise. In
the schools of America, too, woman plays a
part in which she is not seen in Europe
The education OF boys is almost entirely the
work Of women, who train them to the ma
t!0nal respect for women. The position Of
the sex appears still more plainly in the
much-talked-of coeducation. The
result is that the American man is nervous
almost to the point of hysteria, like a
woman, always going to extremes; and his
conduct and his tastes are feminized. He
seldom has the fine. strong masculinity Of
the German man.

every mother must realize that this work

There are three very necessary requisites

Hints on Embroidery.

Embroideries vie with laces in popularity.
Mousseline de sole braids embroidered in
gilt or in rich oriental colors are one of this
years features. Indeed, a touch of color in
troduced into almost any embroidered ar
ticle seldom comes amiss.
The allovers and ''strip-embroidery''
blouses are, on the contrary, made with ell
bow sleeves, and may be trimmed and fin
ished as deliberately as possible. One ex-
quisite blouse in the finest alover embroid-
cry was trimmed with Irish crochet lace.
Turnovers are worn as much as ever.
Guns that turn back are shown In the most
exquisite designs.
Stocks vary little in shape, the tab fronts
being still very much In evidence. There
are new designs in the embroidery how
ever and here, too, the touch of black or
some color is often found.
Plate dollies are great favorites Just now

The vote she received is a testimony in
recognition OF her broad, sincere, active
