WOMAN'S WORLD. PRAISE EARNED AND GIVEN SOME WOMEN OF SYRACUSE. Tl© Author of "We Two"—She Was Not limune A Hook Club in Chicago—For Chapped Hands and Faces—Glossy Hair and Nightcaps—Women as Librarians. It is due to the ladies of Syracuse that their untiring efforts in preparing for and carrying on the New York state con vention should be given public recogni tion. Although impossible to mention by name the many ladies who contrib uted to make the convention the un questioned success that we who attended knew it to be, their services are dis tinctly remembered. For weeks before hand they sold tickets from house to ! house, solicited entertainment for guests j and visited newspaper offices. When the time arrived they prepared the stage, acted as ushers, received and entertained visitors, etc. Leading them all with her fine execu tive mind was Mrs. Mary E. Bagg, the president of the Political Equality club. Mrs. Bagg appointed committees and gave to each lull written instructions; assisted her daughter in the preparation I of press notices, opened her house as headquarters for the committees, and. in fact, lived for the convention. Mr. Bagg, who might have objected to this singleness of purpose in his wife, gave instead the kindest co-operation. The entire responsibility of the finau- ' cial part was carried by Miss Julie Jen- | ney, a bright young lawyer, who man aged so well that after the close of the meetings the club found itself with I money in the bank. A worker to whom special gratitude is duo from the guests of the convention was Mrs. Dr. Pease, chairman of the en tertainment committee. Mrs. Pease'H position was for many reasons peculiarly difficult; but, aided by her committee, she mastered all obstacles, as the courtesy with which guests were received testified. The half has not been told, but so much must in justice bo said.—lsabel Howland in Woman's Journal. The Author of "We Two." Edna Lyall is now pale and worn with an illness that has quite suspended any literary work since the publication of "A Hardy Norseman," writes Frederick Dol man in an interesting sketch of the home life and personality of Ada Ellen Bayley. "The eyes have lost a little of their luster and the cheeks the color they once pos sessed. The slight form is somewhat thinner, and the hand that clasps yours instinctively tells of much suffering. "But a bright smile is coupled with the assurance of convalescence, and the voice, at first weak and low, gathers in tonation and quiet force when the talk is on some stirring topic. Like Char lotte Bronte's heroine, Ada Ellen Bay ley (the pseudonym, you see, is only a transposition of some of the letters in her baptismal name) has no beauty beyond that intellectual beauty to which Shelley wrote his well known hymn. ' 'The face is small and of uneven forma tion, the broad forehead having a sug gestion of the masculine that is scouted by the sweet and sympathetic expression of the eyes. The brown hair would be beautiful were it not cut short and ar ranged with an almost severe simplicity. She usually dresses in a closo fitting gar ment of some plain material. Edna Lyall owes really all her charm to her sympa thetic presence, if I may be pardoned the expression, her spiritual earnestness and tender feeling. Pity is one of her predominant qualities; there always seems to bo an undercurrent of sadness in her character at tho misery and woe in the world around her." She Wan Not lintanc. One cold day last week a small crowd collected along the walk in front of the Coleman House—a neighborhood where a crowd is *ery easily collected—and ap peared to he interested in tho florist's windows. As usual in such cases, every newcomer stopped and stared in turn, although in perfect ignorance as to the cause. I happened to be among these later arrivals. Walking up to the big policeman who ornaments that section I asked what the row was. "They ain't no row as I know of," said he. "It's merely a question of sanity or insanity. Now, there's that freak there looking in the winder—the one with the parasol. I suppose I ought to arrest her for drawing a mob, but I hate to do it. Sho looks as if she ought to know bet ter too." The object of all this was a lady of middle ago or a little past—l give her the benefit of the doubt—who was just then engaged hi tho innocent amuse ment of gazing at the lovely flowers banked up within the window. She car ried one of those small silk sunshades, about eighteen inches in diameter, af fected by certain fashionable women. As tho mercury was down to about 35 degs. this sunsliade struck the crowd as rather humorous and the policeman as an evidence of insanity. As a mutter of fact, the small shade carried in winter is for the protection of weak eyes, and is * considered less objectionable than green or blue goggles.—New York Herald. A lUok Club in Chlcugo. One of the latest, if not the latunt, women's clubs formed is in Chicago. It is culled the Foreign Book club, and meets fortnightly at members' houses for luncheon and discussion of some fresh foreign publication. In turn the mem bers select the book to be discussed, keep ing its identity from the rest of the club, save the president. This committee of one reads extracts, and the club discusses extempore. This is perhaps the nearest approach to tho "social club" which American women have got. English women smile at and do not qui to understand our fond ness for these clubs of ours, organized for mutual improvement or for the avowed purpose of helping to bear the burdens and lessen the ills of life. At those of the first sort, days of preparation crys tallize into more or. less elaborate trea tines at the appointed time, with notes for argument, debate, and every phase of consideration. At those of the othei sort, the great problem of living is studied with equal exhaustiveness of preparation and effort. A club for pure social enjoy ment, without premeditated effort, with out system, without committees, 'with out routine, without anything but the j companionship of congenial minds—such a one does not much appeal to the Ameri can woman. The Chicago club lunchet and discusses almost without formality and practically without preparation, and may be a pioneer of a more extended movement in the way of such coteries, rather than our classes of sometimes ap palling study and theory.—Her Point of View in New York Times. For Chapped Hands and Facet*. These are the days when chapped hands, rough faces and cracked lips ac tually cry out for treatment such as will protect them from the eagerness of tlit! nipping winds and the blasts of driving sleet and storm which winter is sure tc bring. The basis of "cold cream" is mutton tallow always. You can obtain this at the butcher's, and if you tell him what it is for he will select some very fine white tallow, which will be exactly what you want. Cut the tallow into bits and put it into a saucepan without any water. Set the saucepan in a jar of boiling water and let all remain until the fat i* thoroughly "tried" out of the tallow. Strain through a fine sieve, and while still warm stir in a teaspoonful of the essence of camphor in the proportion of one teaspoonful of camphor to every cup of the tallow. Next a tablespoonful of your favorite perfume, and stir until all is a sweet smelling liquid. Before it has had time to cool pour into a little toilet jar and set upon the ice over night. It will keep indefinitely and will be found one of the best remedies in the world for the skin that gets rough and "winter sore."—New York Telegram. GlosHy Hair and Wg;htcnpH. It is rumored that glossy hair is to be come the fashion, and that the sheeny locks seen upon the heads of our grand mothers are coming in again with the adoption of silk nightcaps. These caps, it is claimed, absorb the perspiration that weakens the roots of the hair, and pro tect the head from drafts and chills that make the hair come out. The cap is, however, by no means the only agent in making the hair soft and shining. Con stant brushing has quite as much to do with it, as well as keeping the scalp clean by an occasional washing with c.- f ile soap and soft water or the white of an egg. One of the best hair tonics is made from rum and quinine. The object of 1 brushing the hair is not only to stimulate j the scalp and keep it free from dandruff, j but to keep it free from every particle of ! dust its entire length. For the latter ! purpose a brush with closely set bristles is necessary.—New York Post. Southern Women lit Libraries A recent letter in the Arkansas Wom an's Chronicle points out that in nearly every southern state a woman is state li brarian. Tlio legislature of Mississippi has elected a woman to that position for the past twenty years. In Kentucky and Tennessee, for almost as many years, women have held the office at handsome salaries. The secretary of state of Ten nessee, in whose office the librarian works, says in a private letter, "Since we have had women in the office they have not only given satisfaction in the work, but have rendered the office where the work is done far more comfortable and atti'active." South Carolina pays its li brarian, a woman, $2,100 a year. West Virginia has a woman as assistant cus todian of all public buildings, property, etc., and in that capacity she has charga of the state library. Dress Reform ami Other Topicn. The national council of women in ses sion in Chicago agitated the accomplish- j ment of three reforms—divorce, equal , wages for men and women doing the j same work and a more sensible street dress for women. The two first men- i tioned reforms, although of greater im- 1 portance than the last, were completely I overshadowed by the animated interest i in the less profound and serious subject. ! The chief feature of the new costume is that its skirt reaches only midway be- ! tween the knee and the top of the shoe. The public will be spared the exhibition i of this advanced garb until the fair j opens. Mrs. Potter Palmer has granted the council space on the ground for the j members to appear in tlio new skirt and : to demonstrate its superiority over the tnore modest dress of conventionality.— j Chicago Letter. A Vexed Question of Calls. The vexed question of the cabinet la- j dies calling upon the senators' wives is j still of interest. For years the matter | was discussed with far more feeling than any outsider would think the subject I merited. At last several years ago a ! settlement was finally reached, the de- , cision being in favor of the senators' wives, upon whom the ladies of the cab- i inet have since made the first calls each winter. The dissatisfaction on this scoro felt by the cabinet ladies has not died out with time. They urge with good reason that as the law of presidential succes sion passed during the last administra tion descends through the cabinet, the senators' wives should recognize this by making the first calls.—Kate Field's Washington. Mm. Stowe'g lllogruphy. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe is reported to be critically ill. Her biography will appear shortly from the pen of a noted writer. It will contain a love letter from the late Professor Stowe to his wife, whom he adored as an angel. Here is a quotation: "There is no woman like you in this wide world. Who else bus so much talent with so little conceit: so much reputation with so little affecta tion ; so much literature with so little nonsense; so much enterprise with so little extravagance; so much tongue with so little scold; so much sweetness with so little softness; so mnch of so many things and BO little of so many tilings?" All husbands who wish to win the ever- I lasting gratitude of their wives should i write such letters they have to write aft er this fashion.—New York Advertiser. Mliflfe linn'- by <iol(l Chains. The latest fancy is the elegant one ot i suspending our muffs about our necks with the long gold chains with which i our grandmothers, and our grandfathers, | too, used to attach their watches. Of ! j course it is only the wise woman who | has treasured up these discarded chains instead of cutting them into short I lengths or exchanging them at the jew l eler's for more modern trinkets. The ! muffs will naturally be large in size to appear old world, too, and the whim has : the merit of utility to recommend it to | favor, for it is a comfortable and con | venient way of wearing the muff, partic ularly to the careless women who are always leaving theirs in shops and thea ters.—New York Letter. Tit© Injustice of Suffrage. During the lecture of Miss Kate Field | in this city one could not help comment ing upon the absurdity of our suffrage when he stopped to think that the Sicil ian bandit, the Russian dym.mitard or the Bohemian beggar could in a few years after getting through the ports obtain privileges and assume rights that are denied to this brilliant woman by reason of her sex. What a monumental exhibition of folly it is to deny to pure, educated, brainy American women, wives, sisters and daughters, the right that we fully extend to the sweepings of European prisons and almshouses. — Lowell (Mass.) Arena. A Queen Who Walk* Much. Even the majesty which doth wait about a queen is powerless to ward off the attacks of the archenemy of wom an's beauty which half of the world of womankind are fasting and praying to be delivered from. The beautiful and beloved queen of Italy has developed a fatal tendency to what, since she is a queen, is delicately pronounced embon point, which can only be kept down by constant exercise. Fortunately she is a vigorous walker and fond of Alpine climbing, which form of diversion she practices daily for weeks at a time in her pretty mountain home at Greßsonay. —New York Sun. The flair and the Costume. Parting tho hair in the middle and waving it back on either side may be be coming to the few, but it Is certainly trying to the majority of faces. The se verely classical style is much too trying to be generally adopted, although thero has been a distinct effort to introduce it of late. "Do you not think Miss S. beautiful?" was asked of a gentleman the other day. "Just the head to stamp on a coin," was tho answer, "but thoso heavy waves of hair rather spoil her for a ball dress made in the fashion. She ought to wear nothing but Greek dra pery."—New York Tribune. JournuliHm and Woman. Miss Lilian Whiting, in answer to the question, "Is journalism a good profes sion for women?" says: "The journalist must bo born as well as the poet, though he bo not so rare. It requires a degree of creative power to be an acceptable press writer. Therefore women who ask only 'Does it pay?' will find many ques tions more immediately important be fore it will pay them. Like all literary work, journalism must to a considerable degree choose her votaries rather than be chosen by them." An Interesting lilt of Carpet. Princess Margaret of Prussia will be married standing on an interesting bit of carpet. It was wrought by her mother, the Empress Frederick, and upon it knelt all the cldldren of tho household when they were confirmed. Tho emperor, his brother, Prince Henry, and tho three older princesses of the fam ily were all married standing upon the now cherished piece of carpet, which served a sadder purpose when tho coffin of the late emperor rested upon it.—Ber lin Letter. Ml.. Foster Urn-orates China. Miss Foster, daughter of the secretary of the treasury, has great ability as a decorator of china, in which branch of art she has attained such proficiency ns to warrant the building of a kiln at her own home in Ohio. Miss Foster is an enthusiast in her work and attends to every detail of firing each piece as it is finished, never seeming to tire of even the most uninteresting or laborious de tails.—Kate Field's Washington. Belgium is agitated over an invasion of political women under tho name of the Belgian League for tho Rights of Women. The Italian minister is a groat champion of women's rights, and is present at the meetings of the society. The condition of the Paris shopgirls is described as one of great hardship. They have to bo in the shop from thirteen to fourteen hours a day, receive very small pay and are expected to dress well. Tho new Russian silver in solid tur quoiso blue enamel is the novelty of the season. It is used chiefly for perfume bottles, boxes and other articles for the toilet table. Mrs. Dougherty, widow of tho late Daniel Dougherty, has leased her Phila delphia residence and with her family will pass the winter in Mexico. A London woman has tried the experi ment of a boy of Bixteen to do her gen eral housework and has found it, briefly at least, satisfying. Glass in oven doors, which enables cooks to watch the food without opening the door, is a late contrivance. Mrs. Sarah Balch Braman, of George town, Mass., Celebrated her 102 d birth day on Dec. 21. The women employees of the Chicago telephone companies are to be attired in black uniforms. They Met at Last. Tho lamp with it'', garniture of pris matic crystal shod a snbtlo and insid ious odor that permeated the entire apartment. Incidentally it shed a dim, mellow light upon the girl who sat on one side of the center table add the fellow who tarried opposite. She appeared to he suffering with an unsatisfied ambition. "You were speaking" His voice was like that of one whose soul is much distraught. ——"of old adages." "Oh, yes, I think" She raised her hand to protect her face from the scathing heat of the coal stove. "many trite sayings are without truth. For instance" She shot a coy glance across the table, —"the one which says distance lends enchantment." When another hour had elapsed the lamp was stfll emitting its perfume, but the center table was no longer between the fellow and the girl.—Detroit Tribune. Hard Pushed. "I wonder if that master of mine thinks I am another Nancy Hanks?"— Jubilee Life. llow He Slept. The hotel clerk was talking to the drummer. "You see n good many funny things in your travels." he said, "and occasion ally I see one or two and stay at home. Day before yesterday we had a country dude stopping with us over night. He had on store clothes and a bine necktie, and what lie didn't know wasn't worth knowing.

He knew a thing or two about the city, he did, even if he did live in the country. So 1 let him go, and next morning lie paid his hill without a word and went away. "About noon I happened to he on that floor, and a chambermaid called me to take a look in his room. And what a sight met my eyes! The bottom drawer of the bureau was pulled out as far as it would come, and in it were all the rugs in the room, with a towel spread over one end for a pillow. Evidently he had tried to sleep there, for pinned up on the glass was a sarcastic little legend reading: " 'Gol dern yore foldin beds! Why don't you make 'em longer and put more kivvers onto um? Slebbe you expect a man to stand up and sleep in your durned old cubberd.'" The drummer laughed. "The 'durned old cubberd,'" resumed the clerk, "was one of our best ward robo folding beds."

An Englishman has invented a new sys tem of electric mains whereby one wire of the present three wire system can be saved. According to tbe price lists of manufac turers of electrical apparatus in England, there are on the market over 235 different sizes and types of direct current dynamos. The united capacity of all the plants now in operation in the world for reflniug cop per by electrolysis amounts to nearly 100 tons of copper deposited per day of twenty four hours. Since the decision of the courts giving one company a monopoly in the manufac ture of the present style of incandescent lamps inventors have been busily at work trying to devise some new form of filament and connections which would come with out the scope of the original Edison patents. Electric light baths are among the latest inventions. The bath is a cabinet which will inclose the entire body except the head, and fifty electric lampsof UOvoltsare arranged about the body in groups. The light is thrown on a section at a time, mak ing the patient frisky and browning the skin like an ocean bath. Who Is to Illume? Shall I raise the broken vessel- Emblem of my light, my love- Now despoiled by man's mad passion Like a soiled and wounded dove'/ Shall I touch the hand polluted By the libertine's foul shame? Shall I hurl my curses on her— Crush her with the guilt and blame? Shall I join the mob's wild fury And her faults the louder swell? Shall I blast the flickering hope Trembling on the verge of hell? Oh, what conflicts rage within me— Fires that tears cannot abate; Wounds that cry revenge, revenge; Wrongs that know no law but hate! Phantoms damned and jealous furies Rack my brain while justice sleeps; Reason now is slave to passion; Manhood groans, and pity weeps. I know not how she was tempted. How she struggled to maintain All her sacred vows and honor From the tempter's gilded stain. I was blind to her entreaties; I was dumb to sighs and tears; I was cold and proud and haughty- Filled her heart with doubts and fears. I can see how sho has hungered For the love of former days. How she tried to draw me to her By a thousand winsome ways. Have I been as kind and gentle As a husband ought to be? Have I been as true and faithful As my wife has been to me? Have I shielded her from danger- Guarded her from honeyed sin? Did I not unbar the gateway Whero the wolf found entrance in? Is my record free from sinning? Is the guilt on her alone? Shall I play the righteous judge And cast forth the killing stone? See hor crouching, kneeling, weeping, From the curse that I should spare! Hear her pleading and beseeching For the love that she should Bhare! Dry thine eyes. The scales have fallen And revealed our sinful life! Pardon grant! The fault was mine! Rise and bo my trusted wife. —J. M. Munyon. w. L. DOUCLAS $3 SHOE CENTLENIEN.
