The Face on the Dollar.
Anna Wllleaa Wllllatua, the original of
the faco of the goddess on our nil vor dollar,
waa born In Philadelphia during the civil
war. Her mother wna of southern birth,
the daughter of Dr. Arthur II. Wllleaa, a
wealthy slaveowner of Maryland, who,
while hla daughter was still unmarried,
uffcred financial reverse. When nineteen
he married Henry Williams, of Philadel
phia, and removed with him to hla native
city. Mr. William noon became affluent,
but through some mismanagement he lost
II hla property, nnd his daughter Anna, (
the youngest of nine children, was born"
under most adverse circumstances. While
he was still but it child her father die'.,
leaving his widow, although In dclicat"
bealth, with the strongest determination
to care for nnd educate her children, ami It
was entirely through the endeavors of her
aother that Miss Wllllnmn received bet
education.
Early in 1870 the treasury department
secured the services of Mr. George Mor
gan, au expert designer nnd engraver, who
bad previously ln-fii connected with the
royal mint of Knglaud. He wna assigned
to duty at the Philadelphia mint upon the
design for the new allver dollar which whi1.
oontobe Issued. He gave his attention';,
Brat to the reveriae side, for which a design
of the American eagle was nflerwnnl se
lected, hoping that a aitttnble Idea would
occur to him for the head of thuGoddcHH
of Liberty, which It aeemed proper should
be used aa the principal figure on the coin,
After considerable delay and frequcu.
change of plan It was decided that If pn
jlble the head should be a representation
of tome living American girl. In the pur
rait of hla duties Mr. Morgan had W-vn
thrown luto the 'xoclcty of Mr. Thotua
Eakiua, an artist of considerable reputa
tlon, and tho similarity of their luterei.t
became the foundation of a warm friend
hip betwfeu them. It was thraugh Mr -Kaklns"
luUuence that. MisstWllliams. u

Til Laca SrttooW of Venice.
The lace of Venice, like her glass and
mosaics, is a traditional monument to hei
ancient liuluktrlal greatness. Venice U
the earliest home of lace, and from her
hands It was Introduced Into other coun
tries. The first lace was made by nuu
within the walls of convents for cccletiu
tlcal garments. With he fall of th
Venetian republic the convents ww
closed and this graceful Induttry was o.
for an entire century.

WOMEN JOURNALISTS.
DO
THEY TEND TO
DIGNITY OF ,THE
LOWER THE
CALLING!
A Pertinent Question Are Women Writ
era to lllnnir. fur All the Nitty Stuff
That Appears In N.i dilleil Society
Papers? A Omul Wnnl fur Them,
Those who look upon the present condi
tion of the press with linalhlved natlsfae.
tluu, nml whocoiislnteutly maintain In tho
face of anything In thu way of proof or evl-
cluiracterlxea the best masculine pens; who
uepioru tlm personalities, gossip and fem
inine tonu which llud no prominent it plac )
In many of thu papers; who vnluu style
and scholarship and humor, nil of which
stand it chance of being neglected, If not
lost, will nee reason for regret thnt no
much of-thu litvraturu of thu day la writ
ten by women. Nowhere, In the opinion
of tho present writer, can thla deterlorat
lug and demoralizing iiillueticu bu neeu to
better advantage than In thu society p.i
pern, which, however, It Is only Just to say,
nru us much read by men as by women.
Theru are it largu number of so called
high class society perlisllcala, tho greatei
part of which consists of thu vulgarest
gossip and personalities about the conver
sation, minlu of life nnd movement of per
sona who nru in no nensu of tho wonl "pub
lic;" who huvu distinguished themselves
In no legitimate way, and often in no way
at all outahlu existing, and whosu "smart
nesa" or fastness or money alone makes
them the object of this rubbishing tilth
tattle. While, however, it good portion of
thin literature Is its harmless as It Until
pid, thu name cannot bu said of thu very
latest development of fenilnlnu enterprise
In the press which neeins likely to haven
nourishing existence before It.
This takes the form of n "lady'a letter,"
and Is written ostensibly by n Indy of fash
Ion whose fastness not only goes to the
verge of dlsre putiihlllty, but nomu way be
yond It. She purports to glvo nn account
of her weeU'n doings, which generally
Include visits to mimic hulls and other
places iiotiisually considered classlcground
for decent women. Somewhere or other
there la one "Charlie" or ".lack" In tow,
nud thlsuceomminlatlug husband Invaria
bly llgures in the description nous to give
thu thing pieniimiibly nn nir of propriety.
Let liny Impartial person peruse nomu of
thla bnre, flippant, worthless atitff now be
coming no general and ask himself whether
It can have anything but n vicious effect
on the brainless young persons (it Is to lie
nupposed they nru young) who read it
every week.
But even if thes society papers aru left
out of account it must bu apparent to any
ouu who haa an Intimate acquaintance
with current newspaper literature that
thu ewlg welbllchu strain Is far too pre
dominant, and that the hysterical and
emasculate attitude, taken up in nomu
quarters on certain social and other ques
tions Is a direct result of this feminine In
fitieuce. Of course it largo amount of re
spectable journalism is done by women,
ami is rend by women, nud the proof of
this Is to be found in thu existence of well
written nnd nbly conducted papers, nud in
tho successful launching of thu new paper
for women, which has papers on purely
literary topics written ln excellent style.
But (with tho exception of a few Indi
vidual women who have innde their liter
ary reputation elsewhere) tjio better sort
of newspaper work, which Includes lender
writiim, reviewing and miscellaneous lit
erary articles. In not in the hands of women
nt all, whose main business Is concerned
with paragraphs and nrtlclea nbout noclul
functions, thu shops, fashions, cookery,
home decoration and. reports of lectures,
meetings, weddings and no forth. To write
successfully upon cookery and art decora
tion requires a certain amount of technical
knowledge, and women who nre well up
In these subjects 11 ml n rendy market and
very good prices for their literary wares.
Carried on legitimately that is to nay,
without puffs nud bribes this seems n very
suitable nnd desirable field for the femi
nine pen. But nud this brings me to the
second pnrt of my inquiry can much be
said in prnlse of thu work of the ordinary
lndy Journnllnt, which involves the con
stnnt wenr nnd tear of reporting, night
work, severe physical strain; which neces
sitates, If she Ik to get on, nn astounding
exhibition of audacity and push, and which
perpetually compels her to plnce her na
tural impulses of reserve and unnggres
slvenesa in the background; which Includes
the Interviewing of persons who nre not
gentlemen nnd the formntlon of promiscu
ous acquaintances, and which, above nil,
forces her to write about worthless triviali
ties which, If she have any better sort of
aspiration or literary taste, she heartily
despises?
An n setoff against these disadvantages
it must be admitted that a woman pos
sessing but average Intelligence nnd quick
ness, even If her education be of the most
limited kind, can make a very fair living
out of this sort of Journalism, while a
woman with moderate ability, with good
education nnd a facile pen nud a quick
eye, cun make double the Income earned
by her scholarly sister, who has graduated
nt Newtihaui and become n high school
teacher which Is only another way of
stating that journalism in the one profes
slon, vocation or trade, or whatever Its
enemies like to call It, in which the work
of men nnd women In paid for at precl-ely
tho name prices.
So fur us I know, the real genuine life i f
the woman journalist ban yet to be writ
ten nnd would ufford Interesting and fresh
ground for rt femnlu Thackeray, if s!.
tver arises. What it pity it Is that some
enterprising press lady does not lierelr
give us her experiences and "betray thu s
crets of thu prison house 1" Wu inluhl
then get it solution ot thu problem that ha
puzzled a gcxnl many of us, as to the ren
son that certain ladles, whose scholarship
Is as little evident as their shyness, are In
the happy position or realizing large In
