Ill tho heart of tho oast sltlo of Now Yotlc city Is a big, plain building, ovei whoso door Is tho sign, "Wilson Indus trial School for Girls." Hero Miss Ktnll) Huntington's fatuous kitchon garden tho system of teaching housework bt means of toys, was first put Into opora tion. Utit In a room up one (light frou whoro theso alluring housework gainei nro played Is nn apartment whoro tin girls meet to Irani to sow. Of courso sowing Is not ns attract I vi as playing with tiny ilishpiuis ntul wash tubs nnd dishes, but hero, as below, tin work is mnilo ns pleasant its possible A class of children from eight to tor years is just entering. Tltoy rapidly seal themselves In low chairs around low broad tables, and monitors bring mil bundles of work. Each butidlo is miirkec with n tiny thiinhlo bng pinned to It, ot which Is the owner's immo. Thimbles needles, thread nnil material nro fur nished, nnd the children pay tho penult) for nny loss of their suwing apparatus How? By murks, to bo suro. It woulc not do to imposo money tines on thest poorly dressed youngsters, whoso braiih nro often tied with rags. But marks nro serious things to thorn, because their credits earn tho clothing thoy sow on, whllo demerits cancel cred its. It takes a good many credits to oart a dress, but it is often done. Next ic prieo Is a queer gicut designed tc utilize tho pntchwoi a calico with whlct overbuilding hns been taught. A lot ol tho blocks aro sowed together to form n double skirt, which Is lined with cotton I wadding, quilted and given astoutwaisl or baud. I hoy aro not pretty, of courso. I but aro very warm. Miss Klrkwood, tho head of tho sow-, Ing classes, hns dovlsed u way to tench Bowing by copy. It is called the school sewing practice cloth, and is intended for this puriKiso as it copybook is intend cd to teach writing. About a yard ol white cotton cloth is stamped with nil the plain stitches, hemming, running, felling, even buttonholo work, and one or two fancy stitches. When n child has, lesson by lesson, sowed over these copy stitches she is allowed to set them without u copy in plain garments. A Bowing primer, which lies on Miss Kirk wood'H tnblo, Iuih lessons In question and answer about their work nnd its mate rials. Occasionally between questions and liiHiH'ction of work tho teacher breaks out Into some song of which tho prime! is full. Instantly all tho childish voices strike in, and how they enjoy it while their fingers fly! One is inclined to bo-1 Hove that there novor would havo been bo many rebellious hours spent in learn ing to sew if tho children of tho past had known such jolly songs as theso or had ' sung those thoy know. Could any one bow slowly while rendering "Stitching a Robo for Baby?" Oh, swift llyliiR needle, stltchlntf to song, Thrnuifh muslin and linen speed you along. Bo much Is to do quick must you be; Work shall be well done by you and me. The prime favorito is ono sung to tin tuno of "Oh, Susannah." always givon with great enthusiasm. Its chorus is: Oh, my sewing--that's the work for inc. I Just cun have the nicest time with sewing on my knee. Annik Isabel Willis. HOW TO GET YOUNG AND STAY SO. A Companion I'leoo to Professor Itlnlkle't "How tu Get Strong." Thero Is only one thing which plensci a woman more than to tell her thnt she does not look as old as sho is, and that is to know thut you aro tolling her the truth. Somo one lately spoko in print of seeing so great a crowd of womon one afternoon pouring out of a public I pected to bo memorable days in tho mat hall that the writer supposed thoro must I tor of total attendance Theso aro tho havo been n matinee in progress. He learned that it was only n lecturo upon the care of tho complexion and tho pre vention of wrinkles. In the consideration of this intorosting question threo different classes of womon have been interviewed. Their repre sentatives uro u society favorito, a grand mother who is seriously thought to look as young ns hor daughters, and a ner vous, overworked literary "hack." First tho society woman, who is a well known leader in motropolitnn clr cles. Although her children nre in their twenties, tho most searching gazo of another woman fails to discover trace of more than thirty years In tho beautiful calm of her taee. Her socrot lies in that word "calm." Sho says that sljo never, penults iierselt to grow oxclteu nor enthusiastic. Sho will not bo exaltod nor depressed whatever happensbe cause she will not. Feeling always leaves its trace, so sho schools herself not to feel. Tho truth of her theory Is manifest whon ono watches tho couiito nances of nino out of ten womon nnd notices into how many expressions thoy chango In as many moments. Each of thoso changes leaves soino autograph be hind. Tho young old lady Insists that hor provontivo for wrinkles is tho simplo rulo never to wash hor faco in cold water. This reminds ono of tho much used bathing of tho temples, sides of tho faco and back of tho neck with hot water after fatigue which has loft those nerves tired too. The woman journalist has hor own mothod, not so much ns a bonutifier at that sho mny compose herself bofoio Booking what would otherwise bo a sloop less pillow. She goes alono into u dark room, seats herself in an easy chair, drops hor hands in her lap, rests her feet upon a stool (this is nn important part, to got nil hor weight from her feet), leans her head back, with closed oyes, and reso lutely makes und keeps her mind a blank for tho spaco of fivo minutes. During this tlmo sho drives away every vestige of thought as completely as though sho wero wlint sho tries to bo for tho nonce completely obliterated. This sho does ovoiy evening of her life. All but the dark room part she attempts as often as bIio can snatch fivo consecutive minutes throughout her busy day three or four times perhaps. The result is shown no less on her temper than oti her forehead. The one is us upmfllcd us tho other. IU'Tll Hall. REUNIONS GALORE. Preparations for Statu Day at the Colom bian K.iposltlon. tSjH-clnl Cnrrcsixiinlenco. CiucAtio, Jan. 10. Wo nro to hnvo ro unions gnloro during thoprogrtss of tho World's fair reunions of stales, nnd of cities, and of nationalities, nnd of fami lies, and of societies and organizations in fact, reunions of about overylwdy nnd everything that desires torenulto. Some thing of this kind was attempted on n small scale at the Centennial in tho way of state dnyn, nnd the idea proved n success ful one, for tho state reunions brought out some of tho biggest crowds of tho season Pennsylvania's dny, if my mem ory serves mo aright, drawing to Fnlr iiiouut park tho banner throng of tho entire Centennial period. Tho efforts of tho Centennial manngo xnent in this direction, however, wero spasmodic, whllo thoso of tho World's Columbian exposition nro to bo well or ganized, well ciuipic(l and well directed. Some tlino ugo tho national commission ndopted n resolution turning over tho entire matter of stato and society dnyH to tho department nn ceremonies, and of late, ns n natural result, tho duties of Secretary Culp nro about quadrupled. And yet, according to tho secretary, only n beginning hns been mndo. Wero it not for tho fact that so many Btalo executives luivo been going out during tho past few weeks, and ho many now oncscotulugin, it is probable that by this tiino every common wealth would linvo hnd n definito day of its own selec tion entered. Now that tho brand new governors, however, have gotten oft their little inaugural siieeches and in u mens- uro rid themselves of tho hordo of ofllco Beckers It Is expected that thoy will loso no time in designating ndatoupou which Jio peoplo of their region may rally In their tens nnd hundreds of thousands upon tho bunks of Lake Michigan. Many of theso reunions will havo n wider nnd more fnrrenching significance than tho mere coming together of largo numbers of peoplo who nro ono family by reason of geographical lines. North Carolina, for instance, through Governor Holt, nsks thnt tho 18th day of August may bo sot aside as Nortfi Carolina Day becauso it is tho anniversary of tho birth of Virginia Dare, tho first whito child thnt aw tho light in America. Tho Badger Stato nsks for nnd has been granted tho 2Sld of May, upon which day Wisconsin celebrates tho forty-fifth anni versary of her statehood, whilo Nevada Is pnrtial to Oct. ill beeatibo it also re ceived its commission ns n state on that ditto. Utah will celobrnto on July 84, Washington on May 21. Altogether fourteen states havo def initely given their assent to tho Idea of a stato day, in many cases loavlng tho ox- act ditto to tho discretion of tho ccro- monies committee Tho other states, ro- gnrding which definito action has been delayed by tho advent of now executives, include Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri nnd Kansas. All of thorn will bo heard from in duo season. Tho Buckeyes havo gono so far as to fonnulato thoir programme They proposo to bring a half or moro of tho regimonts composing tho stato mili tia, nil their members of congress, tho stnto sonnto and assembly entire, und representative citizens of every ono of its municipalities. A featuro of tlio day will bo tho dedication of a monument to tho men of Ohio whoso names nro en graved on tho war history of tho nation, nnd which, at tho conclusion of tho fair, will bo removed to Columbus nnd re created within tho statehouso grounds. Organizations of various kinds, socrot as well as open, aro also entering into tho idea with vim and enthusiasm. Two events in particular havo already been assigned to definito dates und uro ox- commercial travelers' reunion on July 10 and tho rallying of the Ancient Order of Forosters on tho 12th of tho snmo month. Thoso who aro engineering tho roundup of tho knights of tho grip nro Banguino of being nblo to corrnl nny whero from 100,000 to 150,000 members of tho fraternity, and ns drummers nbovo all peoplo know how to enjoy themselves and to have n rip roaring good titno it will bo worth travoling a long distanco to bo inside of Jackson park on July Id. Somebody has suggested that each drummer should spin a characteristic yarn, or each pair of them swap stories, but if tills progrnmmo wero enrriod out the reunion would havo to adjourn from day to day, and might still bo far from final dissolution when tho gates wero closed nnu tlio mncinnery ceaseti to re volve A single day seems altogether too short for a hundred thousand drum mers to got hi their work, but they will perforce have to bo content to ndnpt themselves to tho old adago nnent a Bhort life (time) and a merry one Tlio Foresters, too, beliovo thoy enn roundup closo to n hundred thousand strong, whllo tho Knights of Pythias, tho Royal league, tho National uuion and other of tho secret beneficial associa tions, whoso ramifications extend pretty well all over tho country, havo each de termined to havo its own day of festivi ty. Thero is talk also of a reunion of old Centennial visitors, and especially of the remnant of that gallnnt band of women und men whoso pens and pencils told tho story of tho first International exhibition of the young republic to the world. Tho grim renper has decimated their ranks, but enough remain to recall the memories and associations and ex periences nnd adventures of soventeon years ago. Last, but not least for is not the homo the very basis of American insti tutions? wo must havo some family re unions. The Johnsons, nnd tho Browns, and tho Joneses, uad tho MeCartys, nnd tho O'Briens, and tho Schneiders, each and all tracing back to ono genealogical root, but with their tens of thousands of branches ramifying tho continent from Cable Point to San Francisco bay, must try to get together for onco in a lifetime. And there will bo reunions of Johnny Bulls and of fat, rotound, jolly sous of tho fatherland, und of tho sons and daughters of Erin's isle, and of the land of Burns, and of tho descendants of Wil liam Tell, and of mirthful natives nf La Belle Fiance.
