Mr.. TAFT on the Education Of Women.

Mr.. TAFT on the Edo cation OF Women.
The President on June 2nd attended
the Commencement exercises at Bryn
Mawr College where bis daughter,
Helen has been attending school.
He spoke tn the grasuating class on
the subject OF higher education for
women and said IN part:
Il dissent from the view that an
academic education unfits-man or VIC
man for business. 1t may he that
the tastes that lead one to an academ-
fc education are not those which in
sure business success: but that the
mental discipline, the power o: reason
ing, the cultivation and comparison Of
ideas. are not of assistance in business
transactions in which the biyilest
qualities of the mind are acutely In
action. can hardly be true But it il
said that women are not all going iGto
the professions. and so that the educs-
ton necessary as basis for a profess
Slonal career is not needed by those
women vino have a competency, or
who look forward to marriage and
motherhood as the chief End of woman
1t Is even suggested that the higher
education OF women rather units them
to discharge the duties of a wife aid
mother. that i'm some way or other IT
rObS them of charm and gives them
an intellectual Independence that is
Inconsistent with their being the best
wives and mothers. L utterly dissent
from this view. The companionship
of married life is the chief charm and
reason for its being, SO far as it relates
to the two persons concerned. The
enjoyment of the home, with children.
and the training Of them are, OF course
among the most important duties and
pleasures of married life: and it GER
tainIy does not detract from the pow
er OF woman to make a good com
paniOn, or to teach and train her
children up to high ideals, that she
should have the advantage of the
higher education. 1t is not essential
that woman who knows much must
conform to the unattractive manner
and ways Of the conventional blue
stocking; tnat she should make the ex-
tent of her knowledge a source Of dis
comfort to those with whom she asso-
ciates, or that she should lose her in
tereSt in the sentiment and emotions
OF life, or fail to have an appreciation
OF beauty and romance"

There is a round table cover big
enough for a table that would seat
four people, this and the six napkins
that go with it showing a charming
border OF bright red hearts connected
at intervals with a garnishing band
that Stimulates blue ribbon. For the
season soon to follow there are other
sets showing borders of crisp jonquIls
yellow tulips and very nice looking
apple bOughs in full bloom. These
naturally appeal to young folks, so
one is not surprised that such dis
tinctive and pretty table capers often
set off very nice boy and girl lunch

almost silky in finish and very prettily
fringed. These are very often used
with linen cloth for Sunday night
teas. and though afternoon tea does
not call for serviette, such kinds are
perfectly in keeping with taste if linen
ones are wanting.>
A pretty way to put the napkins
on the afternoon tea table is to fold

ribbon. The guest helps herself from

2. Clean and polish the stove

The cost of new pipe each school

aggregate means loss to the

3. See that windows are pro-

of expense, but the amount saw

materially toward a school libra

4. Provide a water cooler for

candidate for Corporation Com

MIR. John H. Pearson, born and

this section.
Called by a united Democracy

after our first defeat in 1894, ne

was nominated by the Popullst
party and endorsed by the Re-
publican party, in the campaign
of 1896, at a time when the land
slide from Democracy occurred
in nearly every county in North
Carolina.
Many of the editors Of the
State papers will remember his
welcome to the North Carolina
Press Association when it met in
Morganton some years ago, while
he was mayor of Morganton.
While Mr.. Pearson is no stran-
ger to the people of. the State, it
is we'll to recount some of his ser
vices to his State and party. His
record in the Legislature of 1897,
though among the small minority,

shippers and taxpayers while on
the board of railroad commits
sioners in 1897 and 1893, his ia
miliarity with freight rates and

industries of cur people, entitle
him to the recognition we ask for
him. We do not hesitate to say
e fairer or more impartial man,

ural or artificial, will lot be found
in the State. He will not be
swayed by popular clamor unless
backed by justice, and fair and
equitable treatment of those in
