New York Tost. REVIEW OF WOMAN SUFFRAGE. Alice Stono Blackwcll gives the fol lowing brief review of tbo woninn suf frago movement: "Sixty years ago'wo men could not vote anywhere. In 1845 Kentucky gave school suffrage to widows. In IS'31 Kansas gave it to all women. In 1SG9 England gavo munic ipal suffrago to single women and widows, and Wyoming garo full suf frage to all women. School suffrage was grantod in 1S75 by Michigan and Minnesota, in 1S7J by Colorado, in 1878 by New Hampshire and Oregon, in 187!) by Massachusetts, in 1880 by New York and Vermont. In 1881 mu nicipal suffrage was extended to the sin gle women and widows of Scotland. Nebraska gavo won: on school suffrago iu loos, ana Wisconsin in 1SS0. Iu 188G school suffrago was granted in Washington, and muuicipal suffrago to singlo women and widows in On tario nnd New Brunswick. In 1887 municipal suffrago was extended in Kansas to all women aud school suff rage in North and South Dakota, Mon tana, Arizona aud New Jersey. In tho same year Montana gavo tax paying women tho right to vote apou all quostious submitted to tho taxpayers. In 1801 school suffrage was granted in Illinois. In 1802 muuicipal suffrage was extended to single women nnd widows in tho province of Quebec. Iu 1893 school suffrage was granted in Connecticut, aud full suffrago in Col orado and New Zealand. Iu 1891 school suffrago was granted in Ohio, a limited municipal suffrago ia Iowa, and parish and district suffrage in England to women, both married nud single. In 18:10 suflrage has been ex tended to the womou of Utah." A widow's weddiso. Etiquette governing tho wodding of a widow has been recently reorganized, and, temporarily at least, is finding high vogue among certain great ladies who ore making second matrimonal vontnres. Tho widow's engagement ring is now a peridot, which in reality is an Indian chrysolite and a deep leaf-green in color. The peridot ring is set about with diamonds; and when it arrives tho lady gives her first en gagement ring to her eldest daughter and her wedding ring to her eldest son. Ono week before the wedding i stately luncheon is given to the near est and dearest of tho old friends of the bride-to-be. After tho engage taunt's announcement she appears at no publio functions. At the altar her dress may bo of any subdued shade of satin. To make up for the absence of veil and orange blossoms, profusions of white Uco trim the skirt and waist of the bridal gown en seeoudes noces. Even the bonnet is of whito lace, and the bouquet is preferably of white orchids; and up the aisle tho lady goes, hand in band with bcr youngest child, no matter whether it is a boy or a girl. Tho little ono wears au elaborate whito costume, holdji the bride s bouquet and precedes tho new ly married pair to the church door, Where there is a large family of chil dren, and a desire ou the widow's part lor a trilie more display than is usu ully accorded on sueh occasions, all of her daughters, iu white gowns and beariDg big bouquets, support their mother at tuo altar. Au informal little breakfast now follows the ceremony. Such a break fast is teurecely "aiore than a huht. simple luucheou, served from tho butlet, wound up by wedding cake and a toasting posset ; but the bride of a second marriage does not distribute cake nor her bouquet among her f i lends. Her carriage horses do not wear favors, either, though shoes and rieo can be freely scattered in her wake ; and, to thj comfort und econ omy of her friends, she does not ex pect anything elaborate in tho way of wedding guts.

Miss Alice Luce, a craduate of Wel- lesley, has just received the degree of rh. D. from tho University of Qottin gen, "multa cnmLaude." She is tho fourth woman who has received a do grce from the university. Tho uunnal report of tho Countess of Duffcrin's Indian fund shows that 1,000,000 women have been treated in tho hospitals, and that tho value of the buildings administered by tho fund is over twenty lakhs of rupees. Mrs. Alice E. Cram, a Boston con tractor, has secured the contract for supplying 40,000 tons of stone to bo used in elevating tho tracks of tbo New York, New Haven and Hartford llailroad in Boston.

In Kansas tho law demands that in a trial for investigation for insanity, tho jury shall consist of six persons, of whom at least ono must be a prac ticing physician. Iu Fostoria, thero being no male physician, Dr. Martha Hall-Smith was called to servo on such a case and was mado foreman of the jury. South Africa has given a name to tho Duke of Abereoru's little grand- laughter, who has beon christened Rhodesia, tho Duko being Chairman of Mr. lihodes's Chnrtered Company.

Finger rings are more elaborato than ever, and are worn ad libitum. Broad forks of antiquo shapo show pierced tines and heavy chased bandies. Openwork silver is a feature of the season, and is to bo seen in many forms. The pelerine sleeves appear ou the empire and other jackets. Yokes and watteau plaits iu front distinguish the full empire stylo. A novelty among connoisseurs, de signed especially for women and mads in sterling bilver, is a combination purse and glove hook. Hand painting on satin is shown on some high priced novelties in dinner gowns, aud tho coloring is beyond comparo gorgeous.

New York Adver tiser. CLEANING COVERS AND CARrETS. To cleanse a rubber piano covorlay the cover on a long, clean table, nnd sponge it all over with clear, warm water containing a littlo powdered borax, just enough borax to soften the wator ; use no soap ; then with a clean cloth rub it dry ; if it looks dull nud doos not givo satisfaction, then lake another soft cloth nnd drop on it not more than two or three drops of sweet oil nnd'rub gently all over tho cover. To cleanse a Brussels carpet : first bavo tho carpet well shaken, then tack it down in a room where it is to re main nnd sweep it as thoroughly as possible. Take a pnil of hot water, put in two tablcspoonfuls of powdered bo rax, wash tho carpet all over the sur face, using a flannel cloth. For grcaso spots or very dirty places, uso a scrub bing brush freely and a very littlo s,onp, taking caro to rinse the soap oil well after scrubbing ; chango tho water quite often ; rub the carpet well after washing with a dry cloth, and open tho doors and windows so as to dry tho carpet as quickly as possible. New York Observer. PAPER CARrET IirNINOJ. A carpet lining mado entirely from wood and paper pulp is one of tho nowest artioles to bo produced from that seomingly unfailing source paper. Carpet linings made from manilla paper, folded in flat rolls, or otherwise constructed, aro com mon enough, but tho new typo of lining is quite out of the ordinary. Anything that is between two layers, as- a carpot lining (which is between the floor nnd the carpet), must bo porous bo ns to allow tbo dirt that works through the toxture of the car pet to sift through to the door. Again, the lining must be flexible and smooth. It must also be moth proof. These ends are obtainod by running the pulp on the floor to an average depth of one-quarter inch, which will furnish a good, smooth, elastic founda tion for the carpet. Tho pulp fills every crack, bad place, depression, and forms a perfectly-level surface. Ex posuro to tho air dries tho composi tion in a day or so. The carpet is laid directly upon this surface, which, boing absolutely smooth and just elastic enough, makes tiro poorer grades of carpets seem like tho softest aud most costly of pile textures.

The following significant paragraph Is taken from the Westiuinsfer (Eugluud) Re view : Thoro Is a common belief that alcohol gives new strength and energy after fatigue sets iu. Tho sensation of fatigue is ouo of tho safety valves of our maoliluo; to stifle tho feeling of fatigue, iu order to do more work, is like closing the safety valve so that tho boiler may be overheated aud explosion result, it Is commonly thought that alco holic drinks aid digestion, but In reality the contrary womu appear to be tho ease, lor it has beou proven that a tienl without nloo hol is moro quickly followed by hunger than a meal with alcohol. In connection with the sanitatiou ot armies thousands of experi ments upon Inrge bodies of mcu have been made, nud bavo led to the result that, Iu peace or war, tnevory climate. iu heat, cold or rain soldiers aro better able to oudiire tho fatigue of tho most exhausting marches when they are not allowed auy alcohol at all. That mental exertions of all kinds aro better undergone without alcohol is gener ally admitted by mo.-t people wlio have made the trial. It appears certain that from sev enty to eighty per cent, of crime, eighty to ninety percent. o nil wverty. and Irom ten to forty per cent, of tho suic.dvs iu most civ ilized countries are to be ascribed to alcohol.
