ANTI-woMAN CARTOONS.

The recent increase of interest in
woman suffrage has led to an out
break of anti-woman cartoons-for
these would-be comic pictures are not
only anti-suffrage but distinctly anti
woman. Colonel T. w. Higginson says
that when men discuss the question
among themselves almost the only
argument he ever hears them use is
that women do not know enough to
vote. The whole effort OF the car
toonist is to make much OF the silM-
ness. the vanity. the spitefulness. the

TESTING SILK FABRICS.

OF the goods sold as "aaI WOOL
there Is not one-tenth that is genu-
inc. Generally the main component
is cotton.
The test for this is simple All
that is necessary is to pull out a
few threads and apply lighted
match. Cotton will go off in blaze;
wool will shrivel up.
To distinguish pure linen from
counterfeit is even easier. The M
tended buyer need only wet her finger
and apply it to the goods. If they are
pure linen the moisture will pass
straight through; the spot touched
will be soaked at once and almost
Immediately one side will be as wet
as the other.
Frauds are more numerous in silk
than in any other fabric, but here
also the material OF adulteration is
cotton. Its presence can readily be
discovered. Draw few threads out.
The pieces OF cotton will snap on
short when pulled, while the silk will
stretch and permit considerable
pull before breaking.
The boosted silk of our grandmoth-
ers that "stood by ITSELF is not
necessarily the best. Modern ingenu-
ity has devised means of giving the
poorest article the body requisite for
this purpose.
Shellac and other sticky substances
mixed through the fabric will pro-
dace as stiff silk as ever graced the
wardrobe of our ancestors. Such stun
is quite worthless. however, as It
quickly rots.-Buffalo Courier

A LOG BARRIER.
The Wall Which Gave Wall Street
Its Name.

The Wall Which Gave Wall Street
Its Name.
On the morning OF March 81, 1914,
a man of clerky appearance might
have been seen standing at the en-
trance to the dilapidated fortress OF
New Amsterdam with sheaf OF Of
fetal papers in his hand. 1t was
not an inviting prospect which con-
fronted the observer that raw spring
morning for the roughly-built, wood
en- houses scattered about the fort
looked sadly weatherbeaten, and the
struggling, ill-made roads and paths
which served as streets were Uttered
with refuse and rubbish of every
sort and ankle deep in mud.
The man at the fort did not, how
ever, waste much time in gazing at
these discouraging surroundings. They
were familiar to him in every dreary
detail, for Cornelis Van Tienhoven had
been secretary of the Council at New
Amsterdam for many years, and If he
had ever been disturbed by the pre-
vailing wretchedness of the town it
had long since ceased to afford him
the slightest concern. Slowly turning
his back to the view, he tackled one
of his Official documents to the, wall
of the fort, and then; swinging about
and picking his way across the miry
ground to a convenient tree, affixed
another paper.
Van Tienhoven's handwriting was
easily read. Indeed, good penmanship
was the only qualification he had ever
displayed for his once, and that vir-
tue had wholly failed to endear him
to the populace, who hated the very
sight OF his clerical fist The par
ticular notice he had transcribed that
morning, however, was singularly free
of offence. 1t merely recited a reso-
luton of the director and council OF
New Netherland that a barrier be
erected at the north of the, settle
nyent, sufficiently strong to prevent
the straying of cattle and to protect
them from the Indians, and warned"
all interested persons to appear on
next Monday. the 4th of April, at
7 o'clock for the prosecution Of this
work.
It was not long, therefore, before
the colonists were hard at work at
the projected cattle guard, and with.
in a few days it stood completed.
There is on authoritative information
as to how it was constructed, but
there Is evidence that it consisted
mainly of untrimmed trees felled at
the edge of the adjoining forest and
piled together to form sort of bar
ricade, and that it's northern line, run
ming certainly from the present Will
liam street, New York city, to what
is now Broadway. and possibly from
shore to shore. marked the farthest
limits of New Amsterdam, as it then
existed, and practically determined
the location of Wall street.

DUCHESS A DOCTORS BRIDE.

No one ever surrendered more to
marry her choice than did the
Duchess Pauline of Nuremberg for
DR.. Welim, young, struggling physi-
clan. 1t was while she was nursing
her mother, who was seriously ILL.,
that she met this young man. 1t was
love at first sight, at least as far
|, All went. we'll until the duchess re-
covered, when she was wild with
indignation to think that her daugh-
ter could fall in love with poor,
struggling physician. The princess
told her mother she was determined
to marry her choice, and nothing
could change her. Finally when they
saw that this headstrong girl would
not yield. the King of Wurtemberg
gave his consent, providing she would
surrender her title and rank. The
marriage took place in Silesia. She
often tells her friends that she is
not sorry for the bargain she drove
with royal relatives. They have a
happy home, lovely children and one
OF their boys is quite genius. Since
the children are grown Frau Welim
devotes much of her time to charity.
Prince Carl of Baden is often teas
ed because he sacrificed throne for
a lovely wife, but he answers that
he would give up two instead Of one
if he had the chance. When the
prince asked his elder brother for con-
gent he had no trouble in getting it,
provided he would renounce all claim
to the throne. His fiance warned him
to think we'll before he took the i'm
portant step. but he answered that
it was only she that could make him,
change his mind.
Certainly these and many other
royal marriages show that royalty
value love beyond rank.-Richmond

DEAN ARCHER IS ANSWERED.

Girls fiirt?
Perish the thought!
Mrs. Anna G. Fall, counsellor-Et-law,
says it is the old argument used by
men who would bar women from uni
versities.
When Dean Gleason L. Archer, of
the Suffolk Law School, came forth de-
claring that the presence of women
in classes attended by men is not con-
ducive to study, he hardly realized the
storm of adverse criticism that his
remarks would arouse.
II was the only woman in a class
of 40 men, says Mrs. Fall, land no
fiirtationss or any sentimental thoughts
were ever voiced, for the girl who
applies herself to study is real earn
est about it., and 1t is not her fault
that some men will have their minds
distracted by the presence of wo-
men,"
Miss Emma Lattimer Fall is a
daughter of MIS- Fall and is about to
graduate from the Boston University
Law School.
Il expect to be admitted to the
bar and to practise my profession" de-
clares Miss Fall. six other girls are
to graduate with me, and they are
all earnest students who are intent
on acquiring as much knowledge as
they possibly can, and who succeed
ed pretty we'll in provingsthat women
aar, o,>y>Ly ~ e,t,.JVy
withstanding the fact that there are
men students in the same class with
them"
II think Mr.. Archer is placing un-
due stress on that foolish idea that
girls can find no other source of in
terest in man besides sentiment,"
adds Mrs. Fall. "But the true school
sentiment is, and has always been,
good fellowship and friendship"
1t is love for the science of law
that compels girls to seek the law
schools, assert both Mrs. and Miss
Fall, and they resent having the bur-
den of guilt placed upon women's
shoulders simply because, as Dean
Archer says, their presence will dis
4 tract the attention of men.
II always expected that my daugh-
ter would become a lawyer" said Mrs.
Fall. "and I am glad that she has
chosen this profession. She has al
most more love for it than / have,
and the fact that girls succeed in
mastering the subject and in gradual
ing and becoming successful lawyers
proves that flirting is far from their
minds when they concentrate their
thought on study. They are far too
level headed for that.
Neither am l inclined to admit
cnat men are unable to give undivid
ed attention to- the subject at hand
when girls are present in a class
room. All this talk is nothing but
prejudice against the women enter
ing the professional ranks. Boston

EMANCIPATION SHOULD
BE AVOIDED.

The proper use of language should
be taught from quite an early age
If We are to avoid the vulgarisms,
inelegancies, and awkwardness Of
speech.
Exaggerated expressions of emotion
and exclamation are sign OF low
breeding, and expressions such as
"Oh my!" Good gracious mel" "You
don't mean it," 'You don't say sol"
should be prohibited; while the word
"awfuIly' as ordinarily used-"Aw-
fully jolly "Awfully pleased to see
YOU" lawfully sorry could not come
to see you,' being of the nature of an
exaggeration and the misuse of a word
which has a proper application, should
not be allowed.
Slang words of all kinds sound bad
ly from gentle lips, and if their origin
and meaning were reflected upon
sometimes. would I think, be less
used than they are now. There seems.
indeed, in certain circles to be almost
passion for degrading our beautiful
language by the clipping Of syllables,
the introduction of unseemly words
and the omission of good, old fash
