AocoroMng to Jud2e Lambert Tree, of
Chicago, the ''new woman" Is exclu
sively an American product. If I un
derstand the subject arlsht," he- tells
Walter Wellman, who In turn ells the
public, "there Is not and never has
been suci a thine In Europe. I have
pent, years at a time In the different
countries of the old orld. I am Just
now on my return from e summer
tour of the continent, tout so far as I
have observed there to no such thins
on the other lde of the water as what
Is known In a newspaper and popular
senso as the 'new woman,' exoeiit, per
haps, In a very limited and much more
serious sens la England and in an
offensive tense in France. As far as
business ' goes, women In Europe all
have ibeen of more Importance than
woman in America. Amons the lower
classes, a we all know, the heaviest
share of the work fails on them. I
have seen them working In the fields
hitched to iplows wUh oxen, hitched
to carts with horse drawing burdens
through the streets. I have often seen
a woman at the 'top of a ladder laying
brick, while other women mixed the
mortar and carried It to her in hods.
But they were -not posing. No notice
was taken of them, no comments made,
no newspaper paragraphs written. It
Tas a simple matter of necessity Then,
hi France, lor instance, M Paris is
tYance, and London is England, wo
men have for yeara been not only
clerks In many business houses, but
manager Tilve large hotel is often
managed by a woman. That means
more than It does in this country;
for in Europe one head in a hotel di
rects everything every question as to
asslgrwirant of rooms.' paying of bills,

"It la true," adds the Judge, "that to
day In France there is a movement
toward something whtoh has a slight
rraambtence to the 'now woman.' But
there Is no possibility of her becoming
there what, according to a neyspaper
icoDunt, there is a possibility of her
being here an incongruous anomaly,
a Flout, elderly femaite, with bloomers
tiJii pink parasol, who demands her
rl'glits to itttie latchkey and ballots. The

Bhe calls forth the rapier thrusts of
Fronoh newspaper wit, compared to
which our newsnaDer humor on the
came topta might be classed as the
meat-ax variety. In comparison witn
women, new or old, of other countries,
however, the women of America have
a most favorable showing. They ore
the quickest in any social predicament,
the most self-confident, if I may coin
a word, the most 'self-protecUonlst.'
They always know what to do. The
American woman 4a like a cat She al
ways lands on her feet. While in dilplo
matlo service I have seen American
women to trying plaoee ait courts, In
the presence of royalty. 1 knew every
thing was new and strange to them,
but I have never seen one of them
make a false step. I have often rea
soned on this peculiarity of American
women, and have arrived at this
theory; It Is due to the fact that Amer
ican women are not coddled when they
are children. They are early thrown
Into the world to think and decide for
themselves. Their parents have no time
to devote to them. They early learn
that money and xank do not mean
everything, and that the child of the
floor man can measure swords of wit,
keenness and (beauty with the child of
the rich man. They learn that It is
to themselves above all others that
they owe the. duty of self-protection.
With-American girls It as a race, and
the fittest survive. Many, of course,
re ruined by the test, but those who
do survive are the cleverest, brightest,
most eelf-polsed, self-competent wo
men in . the world."
TO A CliEVEn GIRL;
She paints a little glorious things.
Which nature ne'er produces;
Che's also musical and sings . .
When asked, nor makes excuses.
A'nd yet hot pictured canvas shows
The coloring delicious,
IWhich 'rreath her skill so practiced grows
Upon the dinner dlahes. .
No melody is half so sweet
As that whose notes come streaming
Out of the kettle, small and neat
Where cheery coals are gleaming.
Upon your charming, gifted youth
The world with Joy is looking;
But of your dainty arts. In sooth, .
The daintiest Is cooking.
Exchange. .
"Amber," that gifted contributor to
the Chicago Times-Herald, Is Inclined
to believe that woman, as she existed
up to fifty years ago is a lost type. "A
new race," she says, "is entered on the
scale of development, and as surely as
the demands of today cannot limit
themselves to the requirements of yes
terday; so surely the new type cannot
be happy under the restrictions and
laws fitted to the old. Like the old wo
man of nursery rhyme who failed to
And happiness even In unlimited ra
tions of victuals and drink, the woman
of today scorns the measure that suf
ficed to ' make the happiness of her
grandmother. Where Eve needed only
Adam arid a fig leaf, the woman of to
day finds Adamafter a year's trial, an
unmitigated ' source Of annoyance and
cheerily turns him down and demands
a new deal. The simple tastes that
wore amply satisfied with a fig leaf now
aemand a wardrobe, a classical educa
tion and a career. The Question is.
which type comes nearer the gaining
or me nentage or peace Heaven in
tended for all and whether a faithful
A Sam and a fresh fig leaf did not typify
the true requirements of a sensible Eve
better than many Adams and an elab
oration of lis; leaves.1 The closer we
seep to nature tne freer we are of both
.auacfcM and heartaches."

and Partly Gay.
"There Is," says "Amber" In another
connection.-"nobody in the world who
has greater reverence for a big, sweet
woman than I have, nor greater con
tempt for a bad man. Be sure a man
Is bad, however, before you condemn
him. Because he happens now and
then to find pleasure in talking to a
woman who is not his wife, or because
he takes supper with somebody to
whom he Is not bound by adamantine
fetters, I should not set him down as
derelict to honor. Cannot you see the
difference between a suspicious, nag
ging woman, who scents evil in every
glance and word, and a large, free na
ture that thinks no evil and Is slow to
impute the wrong motive to any deed
of friend, lover or husland? If you are
always looking into the heaven to find
hawks, you'll find hawks, but if your
mind is fixed on star gaxlng you will
overlook the hawks and find the stars.
Suspicion is the promoter of more
trouble than one likes to believe. Jeal
iOUS, unfounded, perverse and nagging
suspicion is the destroyer of more mar
tial peace than actual unfaithfulness."
ABOUT DUE NOW:
Of all the Jokes the dearest
That bans on memory's wall
The old, old Joke of the summer Sin
It scemeth best of all.
The ships have passed In the night time;
lllg sleeves are getting fuissc;
Trilby has gone to the bow-wows
And bloomers have had their day.
We look with longing fondness
At what we spurned last fall.
And the old, old Jake of the summer girl
6eracth the best of all. ,
New York Press.
This Is how Binhop Seymour, of Mln
nesota, regards the bloomered new wo
man; "God created male and female
in the Image of God. The image of God
unites them, and the hand of God dif
ferentiates them in making two halves
of a whole. Each has Its place, the bet
ter place, as she is tho 'better half.'
Having said this, I wish to add that
God, In making woman, implied her
place in her physical constitution, or
ganic functions, and practical duties.
These lines are drawn by the Divine
hand. Human hands may seek to ob
literate these lines and Bucceed In ob
scuring them, but they cannot destroy
them. Man may apparently suspend
for a time the luws of God by his pre
sumption and folly, but he cannot re
peal them, and human genius and abil
ity cannot create a new man, much less
a new woman. They may seem to do so
in a wretched counterfeit distortion,
which may seem for a time to be a suc
cess, and gratify and perchance amuse
those who covet novelties, but In the
end it will be, and must be, a failure.
As a son, as a brother, as a husband, I
bless God for the place which He gave
woman In creation, and to which He re
stored her in the person of Jesus Christ
In the' blessed Gospel. As a woman
as God made her and as Christ dignified
her, she is all glorious within, and pro
tected by the reverence and affection of
the civilized world: As the new wo
man, she will be divorced from the
home, from her children, from her
brothers, from her husband, from her
former self, and become a creature inde
scribable." GOOD FOR THEIR HUSBANDS:
The dawning era of woman Is a very
fortunate thing for some men, for heaven
knows what would become of them If tho
wives did not earn the living. Cass Coun
ty Tribune.
SELECTED RECIPES:
Sweet Cream Pie. For an old-fashioned
sweet, cream ula Is commendable. It is a
savory bit either for the home or tho com
pany luncheon. Make a sponge cake us
follows: Beat separately the whites of
three eggs, to tne yoiKs auu one tca
SDoonful of susar. one teaouoonful of
flour sifted with one tea&poonful of baking
powder. Add lastly tho beaten wmtes.
Stir lightly and bake In Jelly tins. When
cool, spilt with a sharp knife and between
the layers spread thickly the following
filling: Boil one pint of milk and pour
slowly on two well-beaten eggs, stirring
constantly. Return to the lire, and thick
en with cornstarch till the mixture is of
the consistency of soft custard. Flavor
with extract of vanilla and spread be
tween the layers of sponge cake. Over the
top sprinkle powdered sugar and serve
vory coiu.
The Flageolet Bean. Sometimes at the
grocery store one sees a mass of dried
beans. They are considerably longer than
the common white bean, and are a pale
bluish green in color, so that they look
almost like a product of the mineral
rather than of the vegetable world. They
are shining and hard, and are Just the
color or our lasnioname gem, tne enryso
prase. Not one person in a hundred can
tell what these vegetables are, yet there
is always a demand for "flageolet" beans
In the shops. These beans make a good
puree, or may be served as a vegetable.
They are a French bean, very seldom If
ever raised in our country, but imported
In a dry state from Franco. When used as
a vegetable they may be senked In cold
water ovor night, and bollod slowly for
about one hour In water enough to cover
them. At the end of this time a little
pepper, a teaspoonful of salt and a large
tablespoonful of butter should be added
to a pint of the beans, and they should be
cooked two hours longer or until they are
perfectly soft and tender. The equally
picturesque red beans which also come
from France, are cooked In exactly the
same way, except that a glass of claret
should bo added when they are half done.
Scalloped Eggs. Have some ham or
tongue chopped very fine ;add to It a few
bread crumbs,' .pepper, chopped parsley
and some melted butter. Moisten with
tongue chopped very fine; add to It a few
some patty pans or scallop shells with the
mixture. Break an egg carefully on each,
and put a pinch of salt on them and
sprinkle cracker dust over this. Place the
shells In a pan and put in a moderate oven
and bake until tne white is set.
Vanilla Jumbles. Half pound of butter.
half pound of powdered sugar; one tea
spoonful of vanilla, two tablespoonfuts of
sncrry, in roe eggs anunine ounces or nour.
Beat butter and sugar to a cream until
very light; beat the eggs without separat
ing and add to cutter ana sugar. Add tne
sherry, vanilla and finally the sifted flour.
Beat well and hard and drop In small
spoonfuls on a lightly greased paper. Bake
until a delicate brown in a moderate oven.
Veal Cutlets. Cutlets for breading
should be cut thin, and then cut in pieces
the Drooer size for serving. Cover them
with boiling water, and allow them to
stand Tor nve minutes, Drain ana ary.
Din them into beaten ears and bread
crumbs. Beat the eggs only enough to
blend the yolk and white and add one
tablespoonful of water to each egg. Saute
In dripping, using not enough fat to cover,
but fry first on one side and then on the
other. When tho cutlets are dipped so
that the egg covers them fully, as well as
the bread crumbs. If the grease is hot
enough the covering win adhere,

HOUSEHOLD, SUGGESTIONS:
take one teasooonful of ground mustard
and three of flour, with enough water to
make a good stiff paste.' Spread between
two cloths. For an adult, use one part
mustard to two of flour. Mixed with the
white of an egg It will not raise a blister.

wood Into various lengths for you. hav
ing, say, half a dosen pieces two feet

keep the pieces In, and show him how to
build rail fences, block houses and corn
cribs.
Soda Is tke most Important thing In the
whole kitchen. It Just halves your work
only don't let It get Into the laundry; It's
forbidden there. For example, you put a
lump of It In among the dishes when they
are to fee washed after breakfast. You'll
notice, of course, that ws have provided
one of those nice paper dish pans for you
that' way cups keep tneir bandits la
this kitchen, and why a doscn glasses last
more than a week you don't bang thorn
against sine or Iron, With il the dlshos
gathered olf the kitchen table Into this
Hint dlshpan, a lump of soda laid on tup,
and the hot water cock turned on full for
a minute. Just a turn or two of the. mop
makes things clean and ready for the
towel. A lump or even a pinch of It In
each pot cuts the grease, out as If by
magic, ana witn us pot wasning oaa no
terrors. More of it goes Into the water
with which the table is scrubbed, and is
used In the water for mopping the floor,
washing the windows, scalding the re
frigerator, and before you go to bed at
nieht we always look to have you pour a
little hot toda water down tho waste pipe
of the sink, for there grease la apt to clog
and grow rank, and maks disease and bad
smells. Harper's.
Some cooks are making crusty oreaa
In sections of stovepipe These utensils
are cut in the required length at the tin
smith's, and the edges turned ovor so the
hands will not be Injured. The dough,
made Into a loaf somewhat shortnr than
the pipe. Is placed In It. From tills ap
parently crude affair comes crusty bread
of excellent quality, If the cook knows her
business.
THE LATEST RIVALRY:
"I don't care If she did try to cut me,"
said one girl.
"lias she any reason for It?" asked the
other.

NOT THEIR STYLE.
A Negotiation in Which Proxies Wero Not
to Do Thought Of.
From the Chicago Post.
"Did you read about the engagement
of Miss Consuelo Vanderbtlt to tne
Duke of Marlborough?" he asked as he
looked lovingly Into her eyes.
"Yes," she replied softly, feeling that
the momentous occasion was at hand.
"It was all arranged for them by mu
tual friends," he went on.
Wos It?" she asked. .
"Yes," ho answered. "The Duke
didn't make love to her himself at all.'
"Didn't he?"
"No. Ho got some other people to at
tend to the matter for him."
There was a brief Interval of silence,
during which he looked at her and she
looked at the floor. '
"I don't think much of the duke," he
said at last.
"I wouldn't have such a fool man
around," she returned quickly.
A moment later she looked up Into his
eyes, sighed and said; "We don't want
any European Innovations, do we?"
"No," he replied, as he drew hor a lit
tle closer to him, "and I never did taka
much stock In proxies, anyway."
THE COLONEL WAS MEAN.

with Ills Car Tlokots.
From the Chicago Tribune.
Colonel Blank was a big pompous
man, as it behooves one to be who as
plres to a military title without the
drawbacks of a military life, He was
always calling people's attention to his
marked facial resemblance to James O.
Blaine, "the greatest man, sir, this cen
tury and this country have produced."
And people Ill-natured people, that is
thought the Colonel had a vivid im
agination. There was a prodigality
about his physique that one somehow
expected to see repeated in the Colonel's
character. And to hear the Colonel hold
forth from the end of the boarding
house table over which he presided, the
unsophisticated boarder would never
have doubted that such a reasonable

What. then, was this unsophisticated
one's surprise to hear the doughty'
colonel, evidently In a high good humor
with himself; say one day:' - .
"Well, I earned my faro down-town'
today." . -
That the Colonel would ctooti to earn
a nlccl was remarkable; that he should
boast of It was incredible. , -
"You see," proceeded the mail of mil
itary asplratlor.c, "I went down In the
carttte. Getting In at Schiller Street
tne carette was empty and I went way
up to the front and bought six tickets

HERE'S A PECULIAR SECT.
They Affeet Xudltv and Dcsiro to Live
Llko Primeval Man.
Paris, Oct. 19. An illustration of the
degeneration preceding new life may
be found in the antics of a new sect,
which has its headquarters In Mont
martre, In Paris. The members of this
sect see the salvation of mankind In a
return to tho habits of our remote an
cestors who were In the state of na
ture. The sect was founded by a mis
understood nrtlPt, nnmed Oravelle, who
is a great admirer of Rousseau. He has
attracted so many disciples that he
conducts a weekly paper devoted to
expounding his opinions. In which the
naked savage Is contrasted with men
of modern types to the immense disad
