Scarcity of Women Architects.
Mrs. Nichols of Brooklyn, the pion
eer amoDS American women archi
tects, ascribes the limited number of
her sex who enter the profession of
architecture to the dearth of schools
which admit women to the architec
tural courses.
She says: "In no other profession
are women so handicapped. Yet I be
lieve that architecture provides a fair
field for women—especially in the
work of building homes. I think, too,
u that all women should study architec-
I ture, as they do music or any other
art. Such knowledge has a practical
bearing on household economy, which
a majority of women are called upon
to administer, and as a social force
will aid greatly to make of American
towns the City Beautiful of our
dreams.*'—Harper's Bazar.

The Japanese maiden of however
high rank is early taught to sew, cook
and be a model homemaker. The rich

The family dinner table is unknown.
In its place individual tables about a
foot square and eight inches high are
employed. A lacquer tray holding
four or five little dishes is placed on
each table. For the arrangement of
the dishes there is a definite and in
flexible rule, the soup bowl always
occupying the centre and the rice bowl
standing on the left. Exquisite designs

Scene Which Was Not on Program.
One incident I must dwell upon,
writes Mme. Melba, because it was
the most beautiful that has happened
in my career. I was singing one
snowy evening at the academy of mu
sic in Philadelphia. When I started
to cross the pavement to my carriage
after the performance, my arms were
full or roses that had been sent to
me during the opera. A white-haired
woman stepped forward and said:
"God bless your beautiful heart. I
have been waiting in the snow for you
to come out. Your voice is the most
beautiful in the world. Will you give
me a rose to keep in memory of it?"
There she stood, white-haired, in the
driving snow, poorly clad in black
and with lines of grief and age seamed
on her face, waiting to tell me that I
had made her happy. I gave her
every flower I had. I kissed her on
both cheeks and we cried there to
gether.—Philadelphia Saturday Even
ing Post.
Daughters of Pioneer*.
The National Society of the Daugh
ters of American Pioneers has decided
to have an exhibit of relics and heir
looms of the noted pioneers in the
colonies and states. The society was
formed something more than a year
ago, with purposes similar to those
of the other patriotic societies. Any
woman is eligible for membership who
Is descended from an early settler, if
acceptable to two-thirds of the local
chapter to which she seeks admission.

Barr Warfleld Gibbons, is one of the
Warflelds of Maryland and Kentucky,
and holds membership in the Daugh

Violet* Gon Out of Fimlilon,
For the first time in many years the
violet has lost its place as a fashion
able flower In woman's spring head
gear. The rose has crowded the mod
est purple flower out.
The milliners say that it is due to a
whim of the young queen of Holland.
The rose is Queen Wilhelmina's fav
orite flower. She wears roses, pink,
and white and red, whenever she can,
and when her wedding trousseau
was made in Pariß. the makers had to
put lots of roses In her finery.
That set the fashion in Paris, where
. there are not beautiful royal brides
every year, and all the Parisian mil
liners took the rose into high favor.
Paris sets the pace for the fashions
here, so New York women are wear
ing roses too and violets only hold
their own at the florist's.
Next year, perhaps, when probably
there won't be so interesting a young
tjueen to have a wedding the little
bunches of purple may reappear in
the hats. But it is an interesting
fact that the fancy of the young queen
of an unimportant European country
Is setting the fashion in a great re
public many thousand miles away.—

Kule* for Vassar (Slrl* In 18G5.
When Vassar college was opened on
September 20, 1865, the course of study
which had been arranged for the 353
girl students, and which had cost its
founders many disputes as to what
studies were be3t included, was as
follows:
"Mental and moral philosophy, an
clent and modern languages, math®,
matlcs, natural philosophy and chem
istry, natural history (including geol
ogy), botany, zoology and physical
geography, physiology and hygiene,
rhetoric and the English language, lit
erature, vocal and instrumental music,
drawing and painting.
"What the life of the student was
in those days can best be seen from
the time table that wag followed,
which ran like this:
"Rising, 6 a. m.; morning prayers,
6.45 a. m.; breakfast. 7 a. m.; arrange
ment of rooms (silent time). 7.40 a.
m.; morning study hours, 9 a. m. to
12.40 p. m.; dinner. 1 p. m.; recrea
tion, 2 to 2.40 p. m.; afternoon study
hours, 2.45 to 5.45 p. m.; tea. 6 p. m.;
evening prayers, followed by silent
time, 6.30 p. m.; evening study hours,
7 to 9 p. m.; retiring. 9.40 to 10 p. m."
When one adds that no girl was al
lowed to go anywhere off the grounds
without a chaperon, that she had to
consult the lady principal about every
move she wished to make and every
cent she wished to spend, one wonders
where the amazing amount of emanci
pation and liberty came in which so
startled our grandmothers and grand
fathers. —The World's Work.
The Breathing of Women.
As a matter of fact, not one woman
in a 100 breaths normally. The res
piration of the average woman varies
with every change of mental state or
physical condition; grief, depression,
fatigue, all have their influence in
lowering the amount of oxygen that
goes into the system, and it is a rare
thing for woman to use her lungs un
less she has had the special and defi
nite instruction incident to the vocal
training of singer or elocutionist.
A little knowledge of physiology and
a few hints on the subject, however,
will enable any woman to comprehend
the precise art of filling and emptying
the lungs on scientific principles. The
main thing is to be sure that the lower
lobe 3 of the lungs are well filled with
air, and that one breathes from the
abdomen. After one has acquired
this habit the chief thing is to breathe
in as much sunshine as possible and
to believe in the efficacy of oxygen as
a remedy for nearly all the ills that
flesh is heir to.
The following are some excellent
rules for improving the respiration
and bringing it up to a normal condi
tion; Stand at an open window or re
cline on a couch with the waist and
chest unconfined; hold the chest walls
high and inhale in slow, long breaths;
exhale as slowly, three times only at
first. Gradually the number of times
may be increased and the time length
ened for the breathing exercises.
Fifteen minutes, twice a day at least,
should be devoted to this exercise to
accomplish the desired results.
To inhale long, deep breaths while
slowly raising the arms above the
head, and to exhale as slowly while
lowering them, is one of the best
breathing exercises ever invented.
The practice of breathing very deep
ly while walking in the open air is
recommended not only for the general
health, but is one of the best cures for
obesity, as the increased amount of
oxygen greatly augments the con
sumption of waste material.—Home
Advocate.
In many instances flower hats have
foliage crowns.
Ready-made underwear has come to
be almost entirely run with pink or
blue ribbons, because these are the
most generally demanded.
A Frenchy scheme for the girl In
half mourning is to have narrow black
hems hemstitched onto the ruffles of
her dainty white petticoats.
In the new belt buckles a hook and
eye forms a rather pretty clasp. The
hook and eye are each an Inch long
and are set solidly with brilliants.
It is a mistake to head a petticoat
ruffle with a ruche, because no matter
how lovely it may be of itself, it
makes a clumsy line on the dress
skirt.
The flare in some of the tailor skirts
is produced by opening the seams on
either side of the front and at the
sides and inserting a plaiting of the
material. In dressy thin gowns this
fulness is sometimes of lace.
A French fancy that comes as a
startling innovation is the use of de
signs of cretonne on cloth. Paquin is
responsible for the idea. Garlands of
flowers cut out of the cretonne are
applied to the cloth, which is perforat
ed to show the incrustations.
Single-faced velvet ribbon is prom
ised as one of the trimmings for fou
lard gowns and it is to be stitched on
at the upper edge. Graduated bands
of piece velvet were stitched onto the
skirts of the winter models, so it is
only the same idea differently ex
pressed.
The new crepe de chine sashes are I
lovely in coloring, texture and gloss. |
Some of thme have an embroidered
design in white around the edge and I
all of them have silk fringe on the I
ends. They are pretty to drape around I
the shoulders, with a knot and ends i
at one side.
A very pretty gown has Insertions
of Renaissance lace with a falling ruf
fle around the edge of the yoke edged
with Cluny. This ruffle is carried
down on either side of the opening
at the front, which is closed with little
ribbon bows. There are insertions of
the lace set in a graceful design at
tho tops of the sl'-eves of this gown.

A LAPLAND TEACHER.
Wliut tlio Government Is Doing for tlie
Esquimaux in Aluska.
The government experiment of in
troducing reindeer in Alaska has been
a success. One of the main features
in connection with the enterprise was
securing the services of experienced
Lapland herders and their families to
care for the deer, but more especially
to teach the Alaskian Esquimaux the
method of breeding, herding and the
driving of the deer in harness. There
are some 8G Laplanders, men and
women, now engaged in this work
of instructing the natives. They are
distributed at the several government
reindeer stations and arc under a con
tract for three years with the interior
department.
Mrs. Samuel Kemi, wife of the chief
herder, is one of these teachers. She
is very intelligent, and her particular
duty is to teach the Esquimaux wom
en the art of making reindeer clothing,
which is the warmest and best adapted
for Arctic Alaska. She also instructs
them how to prepare the various food
stuffs which the reindeer furnishes,
such as butter, cheese and the cooking
and drying of the meat. For this
work she receives the same pay as the
herders. She travels from station to
station where the Esquimaux women
are assembled from the surrounding
country, from 50 to 100 miles or more.
She then gives daily object lessons
in her domestic work, and gradually
the Esquimaux women are learning
the advanced ways of civilization.
Aside from the point of speedy
transportation in the frozen territory,
: the matter of establishing a perma
nent food supply for the native folk
was the main idea which the govern
ment had in the introduction of the
domesticated reindeer among the Es
quimaux. The race was on the verge
of starvation, as the white man had
invaded their land and killed of all
the whale, walrus, seal, caribou and
other animals which form their sole
source of sustenance. Now. however,
by the use of these fleet footed and
useful little animals, the problem of
travel and existence has been solved
for the Esquimaux, and It is hoped that
the race will be changed from a hunt
ing to a pastoral and civilized people.
The interior department have been
examining Alaska with regard to its
capability of sustaining reindeer, and
find that upon the basis allowed by
the Norwegian government, of so
many deer to the square mile. Alaska
has pasturage sufficient for 9,000,000
head of reindeer.
Wouiitn'ii Love for fteinH.
In all countries and In all ages
women seem to have Inherited a love
for precious stones, and It is small
wonder that these gems are popularly
supposed to exercise some subtle mag
netism that influences their natures.
This inherent fact may account in a
measure for the recent craze for mas
cotic jewels, a survival of medieval
superstition. Upon impressionable
people certain gems appear to wield a
potent influence. Who has not listened
to weird tales of some heirloom talis
man which greatly influenced the fate
of some noble house? Imaginative
people might even believe in the the
ory of the Pythagoreans, who formulat
ed the doctrine that inanimate things
are endowed with souls. Certain evo
lutionists of today trace the origin of
man back to stones, asserting that in
their adamantine bosoms they contain
the all-pervading essence of spirit, and
that the spark emitted from their
hearts is the revelation of the im
prisoned sold within. Prom time im
memorial jewels have served as offer
ings at holy shrines, as tokens of
amity from one crowned head to an
other, as mystic messengers of affec
tion between distant friends, as
pledges of constancy exchanged be
tween plighted lovers. Men have bled
and died, kingdoms have crumbled,
over the disputed possession of some
coveted jewel. Women of all ages
have succumbed to the temptation of
gems.—Chicago Times-Herald.

THE "R. M. S." BOYS.
Interesting Fuets Concerning Some of
Uncle Sum's Employes.
"It is a singular fact in the make-up
of the human mind that a man when
dead counts for so little, while an in
jured man comes high in law suits and
even has a value in government em
ploy." said a bright young member of
one of Unci* Sam's branch armies of
civil employes, known as the railway
mail service force, as he swung out of
his car at one of the railroad stations
this morning.
"If a railway mail service clerk Is
killed in the line of his duty his fam
ily mourn, his friends are sympathetic
and the department regretful for two
reasons, flrst, to lose an experienced
man, for in our business experience
and merit alone count, and second, be
cause it cannot aid the faithful fellow's
family or widow.
"Under the law and the rule of the
department if a railway mail service
B employe is seriously injured, if tha
disability continues even up to a full
year, leave of absence, with pay. Is
r considerately allowed him. If he is
a killed his pay stops from the day of
his death, and the government ean
-1 not make an allowance even for his
t funeral expenses much less aid his
family, who may be in dire distress.
If Congress would authorize it such
an allowance would be possible, but in
the absence of an express law govern
e ing the point there is nothing for the
department to do but to express re
i- gret, though the dead man may have
8 given the best years of his life to the
S service of the government,
s "Shut up day and night in their
1 mail cars, which are often their coffins,
a the general public has little opportun-
V ity of seeing a class of men who are
2 indispensable and of the greatest pub
a lie service. Last year four of our force
a were killed, 51 seriously injured and
1 187 slightly injured in the performance
{ of their duty. In collisions, especially
a head-on collisions, the mail car is gen
t erally wrecked or badly splintered.
Their skill and accuracy in handling
i' and separating mail matter and in
memorizing postofiice names and loea
f tions is marvellous,
a "There are 8794 of these men, and
'■ last year they handled the bewildering
number of 7,363,191,300 letters and 6,-
429,415,800 pieces of other classes of
1 mail madtS', making a total of 13,792,
s 607,160 pieces. This amount in figures
1 makes the public debt look like 30
! . cents. In addition they handled 19,-
5 850,000 other pieces, consisting of reg
-8 istered matter. In spite of the total
- running high Into the billions, there
a were but 1,355,000 errors reported as
i made by the clerks in handling this
i stupendous aggregate, or a ratio of one
• error to 10,175.
8 "All of this is done in rapidly mov
r ing, swaying express trains, going at
• a speed of from 40 to 75 miles an hour,
and all under unfavorable conditions
f as compared with work upon a large
. floor as the Washington city postofflce,
- for instance, and mostly under artffl
t cial light. In fact, no less than 86 per
- cent of all the mail matter originating
8 in the United States is sent direct to
- the railway mail service cars to he
8 handled by these clerks. In addition
1 to all this pieces were
I thrown out because they were ad
' dressed so illegibly that they could not
8 be delivered, though over 8,300,000
> of these pieces were returned to the
1 writers or forwarded to destination on
1 corrected addresses. No less than
1 305,400,000 miles are covered annually
t by these men in crews in 3638 postal
- cars.
"Naturally after reading these as
-1 tonishing facts and figures it is not
' to be wondered at that skill and expe
' rience and not political influence is
' desired by these clerks. The civil ser
' vice rules are strictly enforced in this
1 branch of the service, which largely
' accounts for its splendid record of
efficiency. New and Inexperienced
men are without practical value, and
but for the maintenance of the civil
i service it would go to 'pie' very quick

8 A Strangd llnnninnlnn Custom.
' A strange custom, the blessing of
| the Danube, has prevailed in Rouma
' nia through generations. Formerly at
Chirstmas time a scaffolding was
erected on the frozen river and on
this was a large cross of ice. but ow
! ing to the extraordinary number of
I people who presented themselves the
ice frequently gave way and many
1 were drowned. The ceremony now
' takes place on the bank of the Danube, i
The people in recognition of the oc
casion wear turbans of colored paper
and carry long white wands. These
people, who are dressed to represent
\ Pontius Pilate, Herod and other reli- [
gious characters, go from place to j
place singing hymns. At the appoint-1
ed hour of the ceremony the nobility |
1 arrives in processional order accom-1
paniod by the priests. The services |
last half an hour, at the close of j
; which the ice is broken and a small
wooden cross is thrown into the water.
; Hundreds of people rush in after it,
and the person who is successful in
recovering It is considered very lucky.
Sometimes the struggle to possess this
cross is attended with severe penalties,!
owing to the dispute arising as to its j
ownership. In the scuffles which en-1
sue it is said natives' knives are some
times drawn and used without scruple.

across hack, and in lower part of
abdomen. I was so discouraged. 1
had read of Lydia E. Pinkham's Com
£ound, and concluded to give it a trial,
wrote to Mrs. Pinkham, and received
a very nice letter in return. I began
at once the use of her Vegetable Com
pound and Blood Purifier, and am now
feeling splendid. I have no more pain
at monthly periods, can do my own
