A Journalistic school for young women
has been started In Fleet street. London.
It alms to give a practical education In i pnMTFNF
newspaper work In all hranches, and It Is j uli LOO
conducted In connection with an actual
publishing establishment from which three
magazines are Issued.
A number of literary women who have
gained distinction In tiondon by their work
are patronesses of the Journalistic school,
among them "John Strange Winter." Mrs.
Henry Reeves and Mrs. T. P. O'Connor.
The late Mrs. Cralgle was also Interested
In It.
Miss Cartwrlght, the principal, Is herself
an editor and a practical Journalist, the
daughter of a publisher. One of her maga
zines Is edited on the premises, and In this
way she Is able to take her pupils through
the entire field, from the selection of sub
jects of articles to the editing of copy and
tho setting up of the matter In type.
There are classes In story writing, Inter
viewing, fashion drawing and story Illus
tration, art, dramatic and musical criticism,
book reviewing, sub-editing, proof correct
ing and society reporting. There are
classes also in typewriting, shorthand, ad
vertising writing and In French.
Girls are trained in the duties of private
secretary. A paper is issued from the
school. Just as the dramatic companies
apply to theater schools for pupils so do
papers and magazines, of lAndnn apply to
Miss Cartwrlght when they want Intelligent
young women. The new magazine, tho
Jabberwock, has bepn recruited from the
graduates of the school.
The great advantage of the London school
la Its location In the same building with, an
actual publication office. Here the editor
and the principal discuss timely subjects
and Instruct the pupils In the task of pre
pr.rlng articles and stories which must be
good for publication possibly a year later
than the time they are written.
The mysteries of makeup are explained
and the student familiarizes herself with
the various processes which Irnnsform tho
mnnuscrlpt Into the printed page.
The faults of the manuscripts are cor
ictpd In open class and weakness of con
duction and lack of continuity In the
ireeentation of facts come In for criticism
nd suggestion.
Special talents for any particular line of
cik are developed and ability in any art
Is utilized in the pupil's work. It Is stated
that the best proof of the success of the
school Is that the girls are ulready selling
their work and placing urtlclt-s with the
London papers and magazines.
Thirty guineas pays for th entire course,
from ten to twenty for a Journalistic course
alone, and 10 guineas for instruction In
secietarial duties. The classes in adver
tisement writing and In shorthand and
French are extras. There is a corre
spondence class through which manuscripts
are criticised by mall and suggestions ma.ie
as to their Improvement for market pur
poses. There Is a supplementary course In
ktudles in style and a girls' salon, the cur
riculum including culture classes, thought
training, art In conversation, literary de.
bates and discussions, elocution and French
conversation.

IN CHILDREN
They Give Rack What ' They Are
Accustomed To from Their
Parents.
Politeness, being only the outward expres
sion of a regard for the convenience and
comfort of others, must of necessity be
from the heart. Yet, fortunately for the
world at large, It Is demanded of every
body coming In contact with fellow
creatures that a reasonable amount of con
sideration be shown nt all times and places.
The mother who Is not polite to her little
ones need not expect courtesy from them
to herself or others; yet she is many times
mortified by the lack of it In her children
and fallo to accept the true reason.
And this attribute must be cultivated and
fostered, even If it be Innate; not a lapse
should be passed by without a reproof; not
a single breach of etiquette permitted at I
the home table or fireside if tho children I
of that home are to be well-bred men and I
women of the future. Children forget. Not
seeing the Importance, they are very apt
to be rude, and unless they are curbed
from the very first and made to do and say
the proper thing it Is Just that much
harder when they are grown.

CONCERNING THE. LARGE HAT
Quern Alexandra's Approval Promises
to Insure Its Acceptance
Another Season.
Even though the huge hats under which
fashionable women In IOiulon have ex
tinguished themselves this season are said
to cause wrinkles, double chins and bent
necks, there's no chance of them going
out of fashion now. Beauty doctors may
scold, but word comes that Queen Alex
andra has worn one of tho hats, and It
would be high treason to decry the fashion
now. A portrait in red chalk of the queen,
made by a clever woman artist, shows the
sitter's face framed In a huge bat laden
with trailing plumes. The hat prpved so
becoming that Alexandra since has been
seen In a Gainsborough. That was a tri
umph for the big hat, for Alexandra doesn't
go In for change. Her dressmakers con
struct nearly the same style of dress for
her year In and year out, and It was not
until recently that she abandoned the
toque.
Paper Clamps for Seivlnir.
Nothing affords more help tn those who

offices to hold papers together. Two, placed
along a seam, moving the one in front of

Dear Sirs;
We are convinced that the Building Page of the Omaha
Sunday Bee is a good thing for the city of Omaha and for
everyone connected with the building trades. The results from !
cur advertising in these columns have been very satisfactory.
The fact that our blocks are somewhat different from the
concrete block both in color and the care we give in
curing. each block has also contributed largely to our
We early recognized the importance . of plenty of water
in the curing of concrete blocks and our sprinkling system was tha
result. Then we have great faith in the colored blocks which give
life to the building and admit of greater artistic effects.
The advertisements relative to colored blocks and our
sprinkling aystem have attracted the most attention. We have
received comments on these ads from contractors and builders
all over the city.
Yours very truly,
