WOMAN'S WORLD. ' A YOUNG WOMAN WHO GOES TO KOREA AS A MISSIONARY. An "Antltrallini;" Movement—Great est Woman of Hawaii—Cultivate Connive —Twentieth Century Girl. Chinese Girls hy Auction. Miss Sadie Harbaugh goes to Korea ] and is the tenth missionary to enter that country under the auspices of the woman's board of missions of the M. E. Church South. She was graduated from the Searritt school last June for mission work and was recently elected to the Korean field by the board. Since graduating she has spent three months lit the mission at Guadalajara. Mexico, from which place she returned In No- j veraber to prepare for Korea. Miss Harbaugh's home Is in Wash ington. Five years ago she became a Christian, and four years ago, when the woman's board held its annual confer ence in Washington, she became con- Miss SADIE IIARIIAUOn. vinced that the missionary field was her life work. Iler earnestness and zeal Interested the board in her behalf, and Miss Harbaugh was given the op portunity to work her way through school. Miss Harbaugh goes to her new work without fear of hostility from the na tives and a confidence that recent hor rors in China will never be duplicated In Korea and with the intention of re maining seven years. The first year she will-be engaged at the Methodist mission at Seoul and then take up work In the interior. An "AntitrnlliuK" Movement. Emphatic disapproval of the trailing skirt has been heard iu recent years from various quarters, but only within the past few months has any organized and definite action been taken to dis courage or suppress this uuliealthful and offensive fashion. An antitrailiug league has been l'onued iu Loudou, numbering among its members several highborn dames and leaders of fash ion in the English metropolis. One of ihese, the Princess Iteuss, writes to the Loudon newspapers to say that she will do all she can toward forming such a league lu Germany, her native country, and will be only too pleased to lend her support to one started in Eng land. She writes, "I think it the most absurd and disgusting proceeding to perform the duties of a crossing sweep er minus salary." The Rational Dress league of London is devoting its ener gies to the furtherance of this particu lar reform. At one of its recent meet ings Lady Harberton delivered an ad dress on the sinfulness of wearing the "filthy, trailing skirt." Most of the audience were quite of Lady Harber tou's opinion about the skirt. The lec turer's own garments were not vo luminous, but her lecture covered a wide range of subjects, beginning with trailing skirts and going on to the vio lation of tlie laws of temperance. Lady Harberton proved conclusively that the act of wearing a trailing skirt amount ed to Intemperance because it interfer ed with the natural bodily functions. One had no mole right, she said, to ask a woman to wear a skirt than to ex pect a man to walk about in his dress ing gown. In our own country the protest against the long skirt has assumed a form even more practical and effective than in England. The Connecticut state board of health has placed the seal of its offi cial disapproval upon the practice of wearing loug skirts on the streets and has at the same time expressly com mended the use of short skirts. Dr. Lindslcy of the state board, in discuss ing the matter, recently said that it was "really disgusting to see how care less women are in gathering up the filth from the sidewalks upon their gowns." Miles of filthy sidewalks and pavements are swept in this manner, said Dr. Llndsley, and afterward this collection of filth is brushed off or left to dry in closets or rooms at home or In the schoolroom.—Leslie's Weekly. GrrntrNt Woman of llnwall. When Abraham Lincoln, the emanci pator, was assassinated, an old colored washerwoman of Washington, who had formerly been a slave, declared that she would at once start a subscription among the ex-slaves for the building of a monument to lAncoln's memory. The declaration of this poor woman attract ed universal attention, and soon con tributions of n few pennies at a time and now and then as much as a dollar began to pour lu for the monument fund. It was nearly 20 years before a sulllcient sum was subscribed to erect such a monument as this former slave declared should he erected iu honor of "Massa" Lincoln. Visit Lincoln park, in Washington, today—the park that lies directly east of the eapitol—and yoti will see a handsome bronze statue of Lincoln with a negro woman kneel ing at his feet from whom Lincoln, the emancipator, has just stricken the shackles of slavery. Of all the monu ments In the United States erected to the honor of the martyr president this one Is said to be the most perfect like ness of him. ! Here in Hawaii the natives of the Is lands owe almost as great a debt of I gratitude to one of their race as the ! negroes of America owed to Abraham ■ Lincoln. That one long since passed to the great beyond, but her work lives after her. Iler many beneficences for | her people prove the great interest she ! had in their welfare. It is hardly nec- I essary to say that we refer to Princess j Faualil Bishop. That grand and noble | woman left bequests for her people I that will stand as a monument to her ; memory as long as the Uawuiian peo ple shall exist. But how fitting that the people for whom she did so much should erect a monument of marble or bronze that shall stand as a lasting tribute to her memory and as an ornament to the city she loved so much. What Ha -1 wallan man or woman will start a sub scription without further delay for 1 lie erection of a monument in Hono lulu to the memory of Pauahi Bishop? Let the contributions, like those of the negroes for the Lincoln monument, come from the ranks of the people. Let them be in small sums, as indica tive of the love of the whole Hawaiian ; people for the woman who did so much to better their position in the world. In honoring Pauahi Bishop the 11a walians would be honoring the grand est woman of their race.—Honolulu Re publican. Cali-lt* Should Cultivate Courage. In her "Talks With Girls" in Wom an's Home Companion Ada C. Sweet gives the following excellent advice to ; nervous women and to girls who be ! lieve that to pretend to fear is a ferni ! nine virtue: j "Without courage a fine, high charac ter is impossible. Girls need to culti vate this magnificent virtue. To be afraid of nothing Is enviable. It is too much the custom to excuse girls for cowardice, which Is the lowest form of selfish fear. Yet It la not uncommon to hear a girl say, 'I am an abject cow ard.' j "This confession should be rebuked, j but out of deferenee to custom we I only smile when we hear it from girls I or women. A boy or man is ashamed of yielding to fear, lie conceals his weakness if he is afraid, and in con cealing it half cures it, for he is obliged to battle with his abject love of self in order to keep the respect of the people around him. In the end he asserts his own power and ceases to be ruled by fear. "Nervous, Impressionable girls should ceuse to slander themselves by an nouncing that they are cowards. It is j dangerous to play with vital sources of character. The girl who thinks <#• | says, 'Oh, I should be frightened out i of my wits by a fire! I should throw myself out of the first window,' etc., , will, it is more than likely, do some j thing foolish should a fire occur where j she is. The girl who thinks and says that in case of lire she will first of all strive to keep her mind steady and then do all she can practically and ' quickly for others and herself, will probably turn out a genuine heroine when her time of trial comes. "To assume voluntarily the attitude of a helpless weakling is dangerous. Habits of mind, of imagination, be come fixed, as do those of the body, j Anyway, don't boast of any of your weaknesses. Courage con be cultivat ed if oue has a determined will." The Twentieth Century Girl. In an address delivered a few days | ago before the West End Women's I club of Chicago, on "The Outlook for the Twentieth Century Girl," Mrs. I Margaret Sangster said among other I things: j "The woman of the twentieth cen tury Is going to be the most beautiful woman that has ever lived. Great | beauty comes from perfect health, and ! woman is going to be healthy because ! she will eat wholesome food, take 1 plenty of exercise and wear sensible 1 clothes. Tight laeiug will become a I relic of the past, and the comfortable ' golf skirt and loose dress will be in favor. | "There Is a popular sentiment now in favor of women becoming self sup porting, and it is a commendable one. It is a great thing for a woman to be Independent, but It Is only the second j best thing. The best thing is to have a home of one's own to look after, i But I do not believe in early marriages. | I don't think a girl ought to get mar ■ ried before she is 25 years old. After : she has come out of school she should i enjoy a period of intimate home life | with her parents. She should learn all | the details of housekeeping and learn j them well. And let me tell you right now that ft bright girl can really learn almost everything about housekeeping in six weeks. | "Not only is the woman of the twen | tiotli century going to be beautiful lier j self, but she Is going to wear beautiful j clothes. She is going to have the pret- I tlest gowns that have ever been seen, j It need not follow that her drosses will be extravagant and that she Is going to ruin her husband by her extrava gance, for that is far from my mean ing. But her clothes are goiug to be ! dainty and artistic." Cliineiie Girl* l>y And lon. j Five Chinese slave girls were sold by public auction In San Francisco on Jan. 15), as publicly as though they had been . in Canton, where such human slavery ' Is a recognized institution. These girls were the property of Gong Gow, an old Chinese who has kept for years one of the disreputable dens In Chinatown, lie wanted to go back to China, so he advertised the furniture and chattels of his establishment by auction. There was a large crowd. The girls were ex ! hibited, and the auctioneers enumerat ed their good points. They sold at from $1,700 to $2,500 each, and they were at. once removed to the quarters of their i . new owners. The place where they i lived is to be occupied by the Canton Merchants' club as well as by a gam- ! bltng resort with eight tables and very beautiful furniture and artistic decora tions. Have any women "all the rights they want"—at least, has any woman all the rights she ought to want—while her sister women can be publicly sold as slaves for purposes of vice, with no choice of their own In the matter? It is contrary to law, of course, but the city officials wink at It. How long would such officials hold their places If their re-election depended in part on the votes of women? A woman who lias "all the rights she wants" has just been elected chairman of the school board of San Francisco, and in the same city at almost the same time live women at the other end of tile social scale were sold for slaves at public auction. It is a strange con trast.—Woman's Journal. Kuffenlc's Ontinfta. The ex-Empress Eugenie, now a tall, pale, old woman, with drawn eyelids and sad mouth, is not an unfamiliar figure in some of the more Important London shops, though as a rule those who stand near her In the Catholic bookstores, where site is often seen, little dream of llor identity. In her sable mourning robe she passes only as a woman ol' personal distinction. Even in I'nris she strolls through the public gardens, once her private pleasure grounds, or rides lu her simple car riage through the Champs Elysees all unnoticed by the crowd. A very few remember the features of the once radi ant empress sufficiently to recognize her now. It is said that during n morning walk through the Tuileries gardens not long ago she stopped and picked a flower, forgetting in her reverie that she was not still the empress, nnd as a result was severely reprimanded by the guard, a reprimand which she took un flinchingly.—Chicago Kecord. She Believe* In Woman Saffratfe, Tlio young empress of Russia Is said 1 to believe in woman suffrage, women's | £lubs, the higher education of woman j and in her right to enter any and all of the professions. She Is an enthusias- i tic advocate of many of the Improve- ! ments started by women for the bene- i tit of society and Is said to have frank- j ly said that if she lived in a land where court regulations were less strict she would be an avowed woman suffra gist. Of all the royal ladies of Europe the czarina stands out most strongly as the champion of her sex. She holds that almost all of the great reforms of the world have been brought about by the women and that they are just be coming conscious of their power and possibilities. Under her imperial pat- ■ ronnge for the education and develop ment of woman clubs are growing nu merous in St. Petersburg and even spreading through the Jealously guard- i ed realm of the czar.—Chicago Times- Herald. a Women In the Profenmlone. According to statistics furnished by the United States government, the pro fessions followed by women have largely increased In the last 30 years. In 1870 there was 1 woman architect; now there are 50. Painters and sculp tors hav£ grown from 412 to 10,000, literary and scientific writers from 109 to 3,101, preachers from 07 to 1,522, dentists from 34 to 417, engineers from 07 to 201, journalists from 35 to 472, lawyers from 5 to 471, musicians from 5,703 to 47,309, doctors from 527 to 0,882, accountants from O to 43,071, copyists and secretaries from 8,010 to 92,824, and stenographers and typists from 7 to 50,033. A. Wouian'K Kioontlve Ability. It Is claimed that the largest banquet on record was that given to the mayors of France in the garden of the Tuile ries during the recent exposition. This banquet was entirely managed by a woman 20 years old, Mile. Potel. The number of guests was 23,400, and the total number of employees was 24,080. Tliis included wagon drivers, detect ives, caretakers of silver, wine men, lee cream men, dish washers, waiters and cooks. On the day of the banquet Mile. Potel was on the ground In a magnificent costume, surrounded by a small army of subordinates and boys on bicycles to carry her orders. Oriental Novelty. An extremely oriental novelty, called a gorgerette, has come to the front in Paris and is made of enameled gold and jewels. It is worn across the decol lete bodice, extends from arm to arm and is deeper In the middle than else where, says tlie Pittsburg Dispatch. In design It strikingly resembles the or nament seen in pictures of Cleopatra and Roman women of her time. The proprietor of the Novoe Vremja, the leading daily of Russia, recently presented his daughter with one of the most curious wedding gifts of which there is any record. It was nothing less than the daily profits for life of one of the advertising pages of the No voe Vremja. As this means the equiv alent of $15,000 a year, it will be seen that the dot is as generous as it is unique. In West Virginia an "oil queen" is fouud.

This is one of the little interchanges that happen among bright men in a ho tel lobby after they have had their din ner and are enjoying their cigars. Some of the wit may have been borrowed, but we only give it as we heard it. "Where do germs come from?" asked the big traveling man who occupied two chairs. t "Germany," chuckled the little fellow who is in the shoe line. "And parasites?" from the big fel low. "Paris," from the cutlery chap. "That's about the easiest." "Microbes," continued the examiner. There was a short period of silence and then the patent medicine man chuckled: "Mikerobes, of course. I have it. Ireland." "Grip?" from the Interlocutor. "Hades," wheezed the rank outsider who had his coat collar turned up and his feet against the register. "Nothing like the old fashioned ague, though," declared the Indiana man who is exploiting a fertilizer from bog deposits. "When Indianapolis was first built they had to put quinine in the mortar to prevent the buildings from shaking down." "Ever live in the Maumee valley?" asked the bald headed representative of the craft. "I can remember when the ague was so bad there that all the girls shook their beaus. That's right. And in the fall of the year when the mist rose from the swamps it used to shake the nuts off the trees."—Detroit Free Press. Future. The soothsayer gazed intently into my palm. "Beware," said she, "of a sawed off party with red hair." "And not of a tall, dark man?" I cried wildly. I shall never forget the terrible look the old crone gave me. "What do you expect for 50 cents?" she hissed. Then her face softened, and she gen tly explained to me that no reputable fortune teller would undertake to ex plore a great future like mine with anything like thoroughness for less than $1. —Detroit Journal. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Wlittt Ailed the Baby. The baby had been yelling all the morning, nnd at last papa had got a doctor to see what was the matter. "Ah, yes," said the doctor learnedly. "This is very serious. An immediate operation is necessary." And that baby would have been a deader in two nnd a half seconds if the mother hadn't discovered in time that a pin was causing the trouble. One Fare to Wellington, D. C.
