Woxmem Iron Worker Let In the Sun. If short dresses are worn there mtut be a reform in tho interests of womanli ness and grace. If long gowns obtain, a reform must be instituted in favor of health and cleanliness. When skirts ex pand, statesmen shout for a reform that will secure sufficient standing room for the nation. When they cling, the cry is still reform for the sake of modesty. By no ingenuity can fashion contrive a platform that reform is not anxious to knock from beneath her. A year or two ago popular reform took the shape of a "businesswoman's dress," although why business women should bo any readier than anybody else to ticket fat celebrated my silver onal literature, but the t otherwise, and I mutt say niaffemente hare ohaand he Evening Telegrapk a as IS years, during which time a week la sending ay Itt- waya vision of mine to return flay to my own deaf old city, Philadelphia, old friends aad eld places; tat, like many ether aspirations ta this world, that one waa aestined to be unfulfilled.

IIoopkh, Mrs. Hooper died on Aug. 81, only two days after the date of the above letter Philadelphia Telegraph. A Notable Sasslan Woman. The Russian lady who owns the well known initials "O. K.," in other words, Olga de Kireff , or still in other words, Mme. de Novikoff, is about to leave Lon don and take np her residence in Ameri ca. She has been something more than a Russian political enthusiast. She has had a political mission, and has exercised in political circles in London a wide po litical influence. It has not exactly been an influence felt or seen, as it were, above ground. It has worked silently, widely and in a subterranean way, more even than by public agitation or directly through the press. Often when the doings of Russia were being minimized to the British public, it was Mme. de Novikoff who was behind some members of the English press, in spiring them with information, coloring .the aggression and pulling the wires. Air. Gladstone himself belonged to the circle of her select friends. Russia must have some deep design in hand in send ing such an emissary to the other side of the Atlantic, which will not be explained by the fact that a Russian squadron is to have its headquarters at New York. Society will miss her in London, but the initials of "O. K."will not perhaps quite disappear from the columns of the Eng lish press. London Correspondent. Which Would Yon Bather Ber Recently the writer of this interviewed four literarv women, none of thorn dis- themselves by wearing a special style ia languished for her good looks, on a sub- not apparent. If a woman has herself and others to Bupport, she has quite limi tations enough created by her circum stances not to submit to an artificial re striction in so personal a matter as that of her wardrobe. The women most publicly in favor of a reformed attire for working women were ladies who them selves had little to do except theorize in their drawing rooms. It did not seem to occur to them that their sisters less for tunately situated might object to adojafcXieet." jectof vital importance. ' Each woman in her own peculiar lino has a national reputation and could af ford to answer truly the question put to her. The question was this: "Which would you rather bo, smart or beautiful?" Said No. 1: "Beautiful because by the mere lifting of the eyes a beautiful woman can order all the world to her safaYsiaw t 1 tiou ing a class uniform which would accent the difference between them and the lilies of the field. One of the oddest among, the late freaks of reform is the trousers conven tion at Chicago.as if the gathering togeth er of a few coquettish experimenters in costume could have any appreciable in fluence over women at large in making them sacrifice their own fancies and. re quirements in the way of dress. Trou sers are convenient, but at their best they give a woman the look, ox a boom brette; at their worst that is, when she' is middle aged and stout they rob her of her mature dignity and render her a laughing stock. The grace and stateli ness bestowed by flowing garments is universally recognized witness the robes of office and church vestures worn by men. Although the latter adopt trousers as their ordinary dress, they can the better bear the severity of the attire that strength rather than beauty is th natural adornment. The skirt lends a disnjMRo --omi shorter staturexiti softer outlines thai she can. ill afford to lose, and she will probably continue to wear it, despite the J reiormers, as long as sue retains tne aesthetic instincts and reserve which are characteristic of tho majority of her sex. The advocates of still another scheme of reform earnestly recommended the costume of their invention on the ground that it "completely concealed the form" without seeming to realize that their movement was retrograde instead oi progressive. Why not at once declare in favor of the dress of the women of the harem, who never appear in public un less they are completely veiled from head to foot? In a land where women are admitted to have not only soul, but intellect, and are therefore respected, there can be no possible reason for muffling the figure out of all semblance to womanhood, and reformers who are guilty by implica tion of such disrespect will never have a. large following. Garments are worn for warmth and covering, and what beauty they possess is mainly borrowed from the body which they cover nnd which is the reason of their being. Conceal by draper) all indication of its Bhape and movement, and there remains merely a clumsy mass of cloth, devoid of mean ing or individuality. The absurdities and distortions of dress are greatly to be condemned as sins' against the principles of hygiene, there fore against those of beauty, but it is not necessary' to wear startling or hideous garments in order to be clothed health fully. A woman of sense and artistic perception can dress conveniently and becomingly without departing so far from the reigning mode as to make her self conspicuous, and women will no doubt keep on exercising their own taste in the matter despite all the conventions that can be called by young and pretty enthusiasts. Isabella Proctor in New York Advertiser. Pennsylvania and Women. The new married woman's law of Penn sylvania was passed to meet decisions of the courts, which, pursuing their usual custom of very strict constructions on that subject, had largely neutralized the apparent intent of previous legisla tion, as well as to meet the demand for larger freedom over their estates by married women. The act provides that married women may have the same right jir.d power as an unmarried per son to acquire, use, lease and dispose of property, but she may not mortgage or convey her real estate unless her husband joins. She may also make anyf contract in writing or otherwise which is neces sarily appropriate, convenient or advan tageous to the exercise or enjoyment of her rights of property, but she may not become accommodation indorser, maker, guarantor or surety for another. She may sue and bo sued civilly, but she may not bug her husband except for divorce or to protect or recover her sep arate property when deserted or refused support, and he may sue her for divorce or to protect or recover his property when deserted by her, but she shall not be arrested for her torts. In suits be tween husband and wife both shall be competent witnesses, but cannot testify to the confidential communications un less by agreement. She may dispose by will of all her property, but the hus band's right as tenant by courtesy shall not be affected. Lucy Hooper's Last Letter.

The importance, which several art classes gave last winter to the designing and serious study of ornamental iron work shows that another new field has opened for the woman worker, and that ire are few occupations left in which has not a fingar in the pie. .iring tho XHaan exhibition in Lon- a number of very charming things in nammered ironwork "were snown, finch as vases, lanterns, hinges, locks, etc., and their simple construction fired the ambition of a few artistic women to make an attempt to reproduce some of the examples shown. Their attempts met with so much suc cess that a perfect craze for the work be gan. Most of the fashionable amateurs nat urally took up only the lighter form, the "bent ironwork." This requires but a few simple tools and no forge, with con sequently an absence of grime. "Bent ironwork" became immensely popular in England in a little while, and as the simplest articles made from it are desirable, that which originated as a fad of the moment has developed into a means of making money.

In tho middle of the da), during the heated term and the fly season, there is some excuse for a dark ened room, but there is none for the per ennial mustiness and gloom which per vade the best room of many homes. It is more unhealthf ul and unclean than all the microbes and dust that could come in "through your opened windows. Draw back the draperies, and throw wide tho windows in the early morning, and let heaven's air sweep through your houses and heaven's sun sweeten them; then close them, but only partially, through the hottest part of the day. Think of the moral effect of the dungeon gloom of these hermetically sealed rooms upon the disposition of your family. Once the summer is over, catch all the sun you can. Never mind if the carpets do fade, you and the children will be so much the brighter. The sanitary proper ties of sunlight are not sufficiently appre ciated. New York Recorder.

Her letters to the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, signed "Ruhamah," were for years a leading feature of the paper. Afterward she visited Alaska and wrote descriptive letters and a book about that then slightly known country. She visited Japan and Cores, and her book, "Jinrikisha Days," obtained a wide popularity.

Chubby cheeked Lena Shenstine, 3 years old, whose parents live at 1280 Hope treet, is believed by the neighbors to bear a charmed life, and her mother be lieves that her child's star of destiny is bright and twinkles with good fortune. At any rate little Lena accomplished a feat that ordinarily would be thought to be attended with death. This i3 the story of tho affair: Tuesday noon Lena's mother took the child up to the third story to let her take the usual midday nap. Mrs. Shenstine placed her little one on tho bed and tucked in the covers. She then closed the shutters of ono window that nearest to the bed. The Bhutters of the other window were bowed. But Lena's mother thought that there was no necessity for closing them. The mother went down stairs and into tho yard to continue the washing. About 10 minutes later Mrs. Shenstine heard a little noise on the pavement near her, but was so busy that she did not turn around. A minute later she felt a tug at her skirts. She looked, and there was little Lena with a frightened look. "Mudder, I fell out of the window," was all that the child said. Mrs. Shenstine was bewildered with fright. She could scarcely believe it, but one of the neighbors who happened to be up stairs in her own home and had seen the child fall, called to Mrs. Shenstine, and little Lena's story was verified. The two women examined the child, but found only a bruise on the fleshy part of the body. Mrs. Shenstine sent for Dr. Beatty, as the child began crying. The physician could find no bones broken, but advised tho mother to send Lena to St. Mary's hospital, which was done. At the hospital last night one of the physicians said that Lena would recover, as she was only suffering from the shock. The child was prattling all day yesterday about her mishap. Philadelphia Press. Narrow Escape of the Elephant. There was a fire at Coney Island a lit tle while ago, and the big elephant al most burned up. His legs were scorched, and his trunk had to be covered up with rubber blankets to keep it from being burned. While all this was going on the big elephant stood stock still, and only when the flames were put out did he seem to heave a sigh of relief. Through all tho excitement he remained motion less. Now this may seem very strange to you. But the elephant is made of wood, so you cannot expect him to show a great deal of emotion. Ho is the big fellow who stands upon the bench at Coney Is land, inviting you to walk up insido of his legs and his trunk and take's view of tho inland. xx3 namb is juiuL, uj i; age is just 9 years. Ho has never grown any since ho was built, but he has chang ed his coat every spring, when new paint has been put upon him. People out on tho ocean who had nev er seen tho wooden Jumbo were very much alarmed when the fire swept across Coney Island because they thought the elephant was alive and that he would burn up. But when they heard that he was only made of wood, they enjoyed the sight greatly. New YoVk Ledger. The White House Ilaby. You must all have heard by this time that a new little baby has arrived at tho White House. This little girl hus the honor of being tho first child born to any president in the White House. Grandchildren and nieces and nephews to different presidents have arrived there, but no son or daughter. Baby Ruth, as you all call her, must be in a great state of excitement over this new sister. Some day she will begas a great favor tho privilege of sitting on ono of her little rocking chairs and holding tho baby "just for a minute." And I don't bo lievo that tho president will ever have loved a picture so much as when ho sees them there. Now York World. Lapland Children. In the Lapland village at the World's fair are several babies. Mes Daniel Mor tonson is tho youngost. His age is 6 months, and he was born in Lapland, in a curious earth hut like that wherein he now reposes, in almost total darkness for his days as well as nights. His mother, a fair faced woman, makes things as easy for liim as possible by keeping vis itors from intruding on his slumbers, if not on his waking hours. There are three other children in theMortonson family, and in a nearby hut is another baby, a girl this time, the daughter of Margareta Kross. It seems remarkable that children can live and thrive in tho close atmosphere of tho Lapland huts, but so they do, and grow hardy men and women. I send my love a fragile china cup.

Upon a saucer fashioned l'ke a heart Of palest tint my dainty cup is set. Dear emblem, symbolizing life's better part How can sho look upon it and forget? The charm I drop within the cup is such That every draft a tender thought will bring; The crinkled leaves will brighten at her touch. The flowers will know a mystic blossoming. Poor pictured violets that never grow In ferny nooks nor felt a summer shower! To hearts that hato the false aad love tho true There is a sadness in a painted tlowcr. But go, my gift, and as my lady sips Her creamy cocoa or her fragrant tea Tby happy rim may perchance touch her lips And bring to her a fleeting thought of met House Furnishing Review. J "ST0SE IT'S SATAN. It was only the ground on which the 150 boys of Dr. Kellar's school disported themselves. But besides the boys pres ent there were at least 150 demons and angels of ambition, envy, loyalty, perfi dy and truthfulness. The doctor himself, in a new suit of tweed, seemed to tho boys to bo far more approachablo hero in tho midst of their sports than when in academic cap and gown he cast gloom through their ranks by stalking along with that searching eye of his well turned on the discomfi turo of evildoers. However, even at these grewsomo times, the boys admitted among themselves that Kellar was a gen tleman, and that they'd rather take a hiding from him than punishment drill from a cad any day. For they were proud of Kellar's, loyal to the school, and ready to battlo to tho bitter end against any common foe who dared to asperse it in the slightest de gree. A little lad of 10 had just run light heartedly on tho ground when the afore said searchlight fell on him, and simul taneously tho head master shouted out: "Colvillo two, I thought you had de tention?" Colvillotwo, a redheaded, merry faced boy, smiled cheerfully, ns if detention were a good joko to which he was well accustomed, and replied with pleasant promptness: "So I have, sir." "Then what brings you out herer" "I s'pose it's Satan. He's nlwaya do ing it." "Doing what:" "Making mo naughty," eaid Colvillo two, with pathetically fearless frankness. Then Kellar's little daughter went up and kissed him. Twelve years later the battle of Tamai was being fought, and Colvillo two was in the thick of it. He had been slightly wounded in an attack that had been made upon McNeil's Zareba a few days previously, and his colonel had men tioned him in despatches and recom mended him Btrongly for tho "V. C." for personal gallantry. On the strength of this Lieutenant Colvillo had written to tho girl he was engaged to, who was at Cairo with her mother, telling her that he would not wait to marry her a day after he had got his company. 'Tve always been a lucky fellow, though I've been in no end of scrapes all my life," the boy -rore, 4,anl now tuer crowning luck of all is that I shall win you and tho Victoria cross at tho same time. Heaps of fellows deserve it just as much as I do, only I happened to bo in front, you see, and was lucky enongh to be ablo to make myself a target for the concealed enemy, who had been picking off our men like ninepins. Tho Arabs turned their fira on me, and our fellows wero able to see where the beg gars fired from. I must bear a charmed life, I think, for tho ground was riddled all around me. Bob (Bob was her broth er) and I fought shoulder to shoulder for hours, and we shall again many a day, I hope." The girl who got this letter was worthy of the gallant, light hearted boy who wrote it, and she sent him pages of such loving, proud, encouraging words as only a proud, loving woman can jwrite. "I wish I were your wife that I might go to the front and dress your wounds myself, my own love. Even as it is I am capable of dressing as a boy and go ing to the camp. I quite understand Constance de Beverle3's bowing her pride and riding for three long years in Lord Marmion's train. Only, Jack, there would be no 'bowing of pride' in my case. I should be prouder than ever if I could only do something to show tho whole camp, the whole world, how dear ly I love my boy." Then sho went on to tell how regularly she wroto to his mother, keeping her posted up in all that Jack was doing and suffering and winning. "Sho is my be loved mother, and only she can fully understand how dearly I have loved you ever since that day when I went and kissed you because you said you 's'posed it was Satan made yon naughty.' " Violet Kellar had fought a hard fight before she had gained her father's con sent to become engaged to penniless Jack Colville. Tho girl's brilliantly good looks, attractive manners and general cleverness had brought far more eligible men to her feet. But she had been faithful to her first love through it all. "I hate poverty, but I love Jack," she would say, when her father pointed ont to her how far more sensible it would be of her to marry a man who could give her a good establishment in which he could stay at home in ease with her than to link her lot with that of a mere sub altern in a marching regiment. "Probably after they have settled thiB disturbance in Egypt his regiment will be sent off to India for three or four years, aud as lie can't marry on his pay you will be left behind to meditate on your folly in having engaged yourself." "I shall marry him as soon as this affair is over in Egypt, papa, and if ho can't give me bread and water enongh to support me I'll beg it from somo one who can. I don't want a good estab lishment or a husband who'll stay at I Ilalrdresslng. Hairdressing remains just the same. Many of the prominent, fuzzy bunches are made over a light frame, which is sold for the purpose at the hairdressers. This is provided with hole3, through which tho hair is drawn, and the wearer can arrange the hair on it as fancy or taste dictates. The frames can be had in different sizes, and are most convenient for those who want their hair to have an up to date look A new idea in hair dressing is to wave the hair all over the head, twist a few curls into a knot at the crown and leave the ends of the curls to fly and flutter as they will. Ex change. aziss Ackerman's Feat. Miss Jessie Ackerman, an English mis sionary, was recently the heroine of a novel adventure. While returning from Australia to Singapore the steamer stopped two days among the pearling fleet on the great pearling grounds oC the world, where 1,300 men are working. Here Mis3 Ackerman put on a diving dress and went down 60 feet to the bed of the ocean, where she saw for herself the mode of operations and viewed the wonders of the deep. San Francisco Examiner. home in case. I want Jack, and I mean to have him!" "The boy always got what he wanted, confound him," her father grumbled good temperedly, and when he said tha Violet knew that her caso was won. Her mother, after the manner of mothers, sympathized with the young people's romance and hopefully assured her that Jack would win promotion in some miraculous way without seeing much dangerous service. So when Violet said: "Mother, dear, I don't want a swell wedding. I don't even want a wedding dress Jack likes me in sailor serge better than anything, but I do want to go out and bo as near him as I can. Take mo to Cairo and let the chaplain marry us a3 soon as the fighting is over." Mrs. Kellar agreed to do so, and all their acquaintances declared that the mother was as great a fool as the daughter. Violet's letter was keeping his heart warm this day at Tamai. Ho was feel ing unaccountably happy and light heart ed, as after a sharp tussle with half a dozen Arabs, three of whom he killed with his revolver, ho was allowed breath ing time for a few minutes, during which be cut the word ".SuaJdn' on the little black pipe that 'had been "fus inseparable companion during the wholo of the cam paign. Suddenly just as he had lighted and returned smoking it, ho heard a frantic shout, and glancing up he saw young Kellar dash forward and fire at someone behind him (Jack). Simultaneously ho felt a sharp agonizing pain in his back and knew that ho was struck by a poi soned spear. An Arab, who had been concealed in a bush, had crept out and stabbed him before young Kellar could intervene. He had staggered and then fallen on bis face, and they thought that he was dead for a minute. But when they lifted him and wero carrying him away a faint flicker of the old fun came into his fad ing blue eyes as he said: "I wanted Violet and tho 'V. C. 00 much. S'pose 'twas Satan" Before he could finish the sentence the fading light went out, and tho blue eyes closed forever in this world. Who shall tell her? The wholo regi ment knew the story of Jack's love, and not a man in it but felt heartsoro for tho girl who had loved and been so proud of her young hero. "It will break my heart to go to Vio let with such a tale," her brother moaned. "I'd rather take a revolver and blow my own brains out than have tho task." "Yon shall not havo it," his colonel promised. ' 'I'll go to her myself with as bitter tidings as I've had to convey." Colonel Branksholmc's mouth twitch ed, and his steady, fearless gray eyes filled with tears as ho spoke. But this was more for tho fine young soldierly life which had been cut short in its glory than for the desolate girl who was left to mourn it. However, ho fulfilled hia task so sympathetically that Violet soon found her greatest comfort in talking of her lost lover to his gallant chief. "Time treads on the grave of affec tion!" Kind, merciful Time! Two years after Jackfell at Suakin, Colonel Branks holine, who had been away on leave for a mouth, telegraphed to tho second in command of the regiment, "My wife and I will be back tonight." "We'll givo them a grand reception. Have the band to meet them, take the horses out and drag tho carriage along tho parade," somo of tho more enthu siastic of tho juniors declared. But when young Kellar said: "Better not. Tho brido is my sister," the regiment felt that the less demonstration they made on tho occasion of her joining it the better. Jack's memory was too green with them still for them to givo her any thing but a silent and rather sad wel come. Montreal Star. A Kansas Woman's Scheme. It remained for a Kansas woman to find, a new way to tako quinine clear without leaving a bad tastoin the mouth. She had tho rheumatism in her left leg, and sho tried rubbing it with a mixture of quinino and lard.
