New Occupation For Women. 11l an English magazine appears the following: "Sonte weeks ago a con tributor to the kennel department of the paper mentioned the post of lten nehvomen as offering nuother field of employment for women. One woman awning a large kennel Is about to act Dn certain suggestions made in the paragraph referred to, and writes to say that she would like to take a pupil i and teach lier thoroughly the duties of | a kennelwoman. The woman in ques tion lias been a successful breeder and rearer of dogs, and is her own vet. Grace McKinley, Schoolma'nm. It is seldom that a young girl who may have wealth and the highest so cial position chooses the drudgery and Irksome duties of a school teacher. Such a unique specimen of fair Amer ican maidenhood is found in the or phan niece of President McKinley, Miss Grace McKinley. A year ago last June the President and Mrs. Mc- Kinley, with a party of friends—Cab inet officers and other prominent offi cials—went to that staid and distin guished scat of learning, Mount Holy uke College, South Hadley, Mass., to see Miss Grace take her degree of B. A. Miss Grace stood at the head of her class, while her record during the entire course had been one of praise worthy endeavor. The President, to show his appreciation of her success, bestowed on his niece n beautiful din mond pin. The graduation dress, a dainty creation of white chiffon and lace, was Mrs. MeKlnley's gift. It was after this great event that Ihe President offered to ndopt Miss Grace, formally, and thus make her the reigning belle of the nation—the social leader of the capital—the only young girl In the great Presidential mansion at Washington. This was surely a tempting offer, but it did not swerve tills beautiful and brilliant girl from a long cher ished aspiration. She wished to use her gifts in a fitting way—ln one to which she had endeavored to train herself during her long and severe pro bation at Mount Holyoke. She chose the arduous profession of a school teacher, and this fall, on her own ap plication, sustained by her record at college, she secured a positiou 111 the High School of Mlddletown.Conn. She began her duties in September.—Sue- cessu Four Famous Sisters. Four sisters of American birth have made reputations in France through varied but very positive accomplish ments. Anna XvluLupke had made a reputation as an artist before Rosa Bonheur bequeathed so large a legucy to her that she surrendered part of it rather than be involved in a struggle with Rosa Bonheur's family. She lives in Rosa Boulieur's former lioine at Fontaiuebleau and is continuing to advance in the field she selected for herself. Since she received the legacy from the famous animal painter her struggles to win a high place in her profession are said by those who know her intimately to be more eager than ever. The family comes from California, but the daughters have lived for some years in Paris. One of the other sis ) tors studied medicine at the College of France, and was rewarded with a degree entitling her t) practice in the hospitals. This honor had never be fore been bestowed on any woman. For several years she devoted herself to practice in Paris, and was then married to Dr. Djerine, of I.a Salpe triere. He is well known as a special ist in nervous diseases. Before her marriage Mme. Djerine's writings on the same subject had attracted con siderable attention. Since their mar riage husband and wife have collabor ated on several important works on the same subject. Seven years ago Dorothea IClumpke won a degree of doctor of sciences at the Sorbonne. She had studied astron omy long before it became her inten tion to devote herself seriously to the science. Her thesis was a study of the rings of Saturn, and it has come to be nn authority on that subject. She be came an assistant astronomer at the Observatory of Paris soon after leav- Jng the Sorborne. She passed her ver bal examination successfully, and was the first woman to obtain the degree of doctor of science and mathematics. All the members of the faculty voted In her favor. Julia Klumpks, the fourth sister, has Just begun to attract further at tention to the name. She has chosen musio as her field of endeavor, and has shown the possession of the family talent within certain limits. She has played the violin with success in Paris, and there are already prophecies that the name of the family will soon be illustrious in another field. Miss Klumpke has not readied as yet the importance obtained by some other women abroad in her profession. But she Is the youngest of the sisters, and persons with faith in the family talent believe that she will yet become as well known in her field as the other Klumpkes are in their fields.

Miss Eugenia Washington, great graudnlece of George Washington, one of the founders of the Society of Daughters of the American Revolu tion, and President of the Society of Founders and Patriots, died in Wash ington recently. Dr. Rebecca Johnston, of New' York City, is a woman physician who gives certain hours of her time to working for philanthropy. Three days of every week she conducts a free clinic during the morning hours in the basement of her home. In a Faris paper the assertion is made that one of the cherished cus toms of France—an institution not de spised in other countries, the custom of giving a dot to marriageable girls is rapidly dying out, and will soon take its place with the great auk and other extinct species.
