BY FRANCES sHAFFER.

Such strange echoes one gets from the
past sometimes!
In that little sketch OF Lucy Stone,
written by her daughter. Alice Stone
Blackwell. there are some interesting
"reminiscences which bring one in touch
with the spirit of those earlier times.
The faculty of Oberlin College. which
she was attending-the only one broad
enough to let her in at all-would not
permit young women students to take
part in the debates which were part OF
the requirements for young men. So she
and a few other girls defantly went off
by their lone and organized debating
society of their own. 1t must be done
secretly, so they would go to their meet
ing place one or two at a time, In order
to escape attention by their numbers
Sometimes these debating societies were
held in the cottage of an old colored
woman. and sometimes they sought the
seclusion of nearby woods, and there,
unsuspected by the faculty they went
over the very ground taken by their
brothers out in the open. And presumably
they went over some ground never turned
over by their brothers at all.
SPOKE with Others.
During her college course 1t happened
that the coIored people in the vicinity
prepared to celebrate the anniversary of
West India emancipation. and they in
vited Lucy to speak. But they also in
vited the president of the college, as
well as some of the professors.
She spoke with the others-and then
something happened. The next day she
was called before the ladies board" and
asked to explain her unwomanly and I'M
scriptural conduct. The wife of the pres
ident asked her IL she did not feel en-
ha -rassod and out OF pace on the plat
form among all thu men. But the young
speaker saw in them only the president
and professors whom she met IN TIE
class rooms every day, and when she
told them just how at ease she felt. how
natural and unafraid, they warned her
OF the evil of le- ways, and let her GO
And when the ccLrsc was all ovsf, she
was selected to write an essay TO he
read at the commencement. But she was
told that as 1t would be quite improper
for a woman to read her own essay IN
public, one of the professors would be
selected to read it ior her. But thew
reckoned without their woman-host. for
she would have none of that, and de-
clined the honor, preferring not to write
it at all If 1t must pc turned over to
other hands, in the name OF womanlIness
That was in 1Sf7.
After Forty Years.
Forty years went by. and when Ober-
lin was ready to celebrate lis semi-cen-
tennial, Lucy Stone was invited to b.,
one of the speakers. And she delivered
her own message.
When she began lecturing it was a
great novelty to see women on the plat
form. and large audiences were attract
ed. They went with minds all made up
TO see a sour-faced. angular, masculine
woman and to hear a sharp, high-pttched
voice aggressively scolding men and con-
dltiens in general Instead, they found
an unassuming little woman, sweet of
face and winning of manner and they
heard voice so strangely pleasing that

did not prove TO be the case, for she was
ever a devoted wife and mother in
spite Of all her many charitable inter-
ests.
About eleven years after her marriage
the Fry family moved to Plashet, and
Mrs. Fry became much interested in an
aged brother and his sister who lived in
dilapidated house opposite the Fry
estate. These people had once been well
of and were very sensitive, but with
infinite tact and kindness Mrs. Fry
helped them in many ways. She even
persuaded the sister TO allow her to open
school for poor children in one wing
of the old building.
1t is unnecessary in this short sketch
to mention the wonderful work done by
Elizabeth Fry and how new English PEN
itentiaries were built after plans sug-
sested by her. as all who knew the
name are familiar with her great philan-
thropic work.

And dreamed not such Wild woe
Could round me close.

Though hard 1t seems,
For in the drear night late
There comes in dreams,
A baby form and facs
With cunning charms,
And seeks her nesting place
In mothers arms.

Floats way again

NEW
BLOUSES FOR FALL
Striped Chiffon Will Be Very Much
Used.

The busy shopper. out with an eye for
new features stopped and looked at the
new dressy and semi-tailored blouses. and
very attractive in every way she found
them. Chiffon. either plain. accordion
pleated or combined with two or more
colors and an equal variety Of laces,
fashions most of the matinee and after
noon blouses in general, while charmeuse
and crepe de chine form nearly all OF
the semi-dressy waists. There seems a
decided absence in the new imported
bIouses of the Robespierre collar. which
has been so popular all summer. A few
OF the designs show II, OF course. but the
majority OF the models, while still re-
tanning the V shape opening in front and
some kind OF a collar. do not show the
deep double frills which are truly so be-
coming.
One charming waist is fashioned OF
wide blue and white striped chiffon.
which is decidedly new this year, and
this special design Is trimmed with fancy
blue braid down each side of the front.
which was Of white chiffon. The sleeves
OF this waist are long and set into the
arm.
Blouse of Black Chiffon.
Another blouse is Of black chiffon with
a WlOe NelllnS VI ms
covers the entire front and the back. and
the edges are hemmed by hand. The
three-quarter length sleeves are finished
with turned-back cuffs OF white chiffon
to match the yelling on the waist. This
blouse, while very striking. could be
worn by the woman in slight mourning.
as well as by the girl or woman who
is particularly fond of the becoming

sign also comes in several other COM
binations Of colors.
A deep blue chiffon waist shows the
new Van Dyke collar in white chiffon,
with its deep points rolling over from a
little yoke OF. shadow lace.
Navy blue. black. and gray seem to
be the leading colors in the new i'm
ported blouses. a charming waist of
navy blue charmeuse has very deep
pointed opening. which is filled in with
fine tucked net. The pretty and very new
touch given to this design is in the un-
buttoned effect Of the front opening.
Buttons of Amber.
Lovely little amber buttons decorate
1t on the right side and the simulated
buttonholes on the left are of amber
colored messaline.
A tie in this same colored silk comes
around the neck and falls in front of
the tucked net opening.
White chiffon. combined with blue,
forms another dressy little waist: the
upper half is of the white. while the
lower part is fashioned from. the blue
chiffon.
A very good looking semi-tailored waist
is made of blue charmeuse, and opened
in front, without a frill of any kind.

The collar of this design was very high
and plain, with the exception OF little
tabs, which turned back from the neck
| in front. These were faced with amber
cclored charmeuse. All the sleeves are
long. with few exceptions, and yokes are
shown on many new models.

In the rainIess interior of Australia
there is a silence Of the grave. This
deathlike silence has a peculiarly de-
pressing effect. If two men are camp
ed and one of them goes to a distant
township to get provisions while the
other remains behind to look after the
camp, the man who is to remain says
to his mate in forcible gold fields Ian
guage: "Now, Bill, don't you be long
away. You know what kind Of a
place this is to live in by yourself" "
If his mate is away for two Or three
days the silence gets upon the mans
nerves, and in the end he shouts in or
der to make noise, and then he is
afraid Of the sound Of his own voice.
