IfHiyH Harper's ' Bazar. In the old-fash-
floned days , sweet in memory as laven-
jdor sprigs In a linen elicit , marriage
nnd motherhood secmod the mo-it dcslr-
| able goals for a woman in the flower of
| youth. The bud of maiden beauty was to
: unfold into the perfect rose of ruittrl-
[ inony and v , ifely dignity.
i Her choice of u down renumorativo
I professions awaits the fair graduate of
[ the end of the century. She may bo
1 nlmost any thing she wills to be , the single
bar to her advancement lying not in any
opposition placed in her pathway by the
other fcex , but In her own possible lack
of pluck , patience , or perhovornnce.
Those admiarblo p's must bo hers
If she would win success as a bread
winner , or wear laurels as among the
world's foremost toilers. Many a girl
lamentably fails because she is lacking
not in cleverness , but in thoroughness ,
nnd class-room ability is not always the
ability which steps to the front In the
Held of life.
Wo are not ashamed to confess that
wo cannot place any profession on bo
high u plane , In our estimation , as that
old one of making a good man's life
hnppy , and bringing up children lov
ingly and well. Wife and mother are
queenly titles. No other profession
ranks with these when love opens the
door for them in a woman's life.
Wo fool , too , a little doubtful whether
it is best for a woman to combine in her
own person the olllces of house-mother
tind bread-winner. The woman who
must earn money and at the tame time
keep hoiibo , nurbe babies , sew up heams ,
manage feorvants and attend to the com
plex alTuirs of an establishment , is to bo
pitied. She has far too much for one
pair of hands to do. But this opens an
other question.
*
She Is known as Kly Hod , but her nnmo
is Cornelia T. Crosby , and she lives on
Hangoly Lake , Mo. She thus describes
horbolf : "I am a plain woman of uncer
tain age , standing six feet in my stock
ings. I have earned my bread for a
good many years as a bank cashier. I
scribble u bit for various sporting jour
nals , and I would rather tlsh any day
than go to heaven. "
Miss Crosby llnds support for this
statement in nor prowess with the rod ,
having made a record of fifty-two trout
in''forty-four minutes with the lly.
When Fly Hod goes Hshing she wears
i etOut boots , reaching nearly to the
I knees , - a navy blue serge suit
i With bloiteU waist , u skirt of
medium length , and a red felt
lhat. On the other side of the skirt
is a series of hooks and eyes , by means
of which she can shorten her dress to
her boot tops while tramping and fish-
ling and restore its length when she
comes again into the region of town or
Benin ] ) . Ply Rod is well known among
the distinguished fishermen who have
Rtjone to Hangoly lake for sport. One
morning , when the Maine Pret-s assoeia-
tion was camping in the Maine woods ,
Miss Crosby went out before breakfast
and caught trout enough for the meal.
I In recognition of this feat a gold watch ,
I on which was engraved a trout taking
1 the lly , was given to hor. Miss Crosby's
rod weighs four and one-half ounces and
her outfit cost $12. ) . She is a great
I walker , and says that the secret of her
twenty-mile tramps without fatigue is in
I stopping every ton minutes for rest.

I Women will take a prominent part In
the general press congress of the
I World's fair , which will begin Mav 22 in
I the auditorium of the now Art building.
I Tills congress is to bo composed of the
I actual newspaper workers , both men and
I women. At first two congresses wore
I designed , ono for men and ono for women ,
I but the executive committee decided
that press women of the country be in-
vitedto take any part in the general
I press congress which they should desire.
it was decided , ulbo , that women of the
press conduct ono evening session of the
I general congress on May 21 , and in ad-
fclitIon to this ono women bo invited to
| address tlio congress at each evening ses-
I sion.
I Four morning sessions will bo eon-
I ducted exclusively by women for the dis-
I ciisslon of papers and topics peculiarly
I pertinent to the practical side of the
i newspaper work of women. Numerous
I papers will be read and discus-ed , the
I { ongest not to exceed twenty minutes ,
I nnd at each congress there will be ad-
I dresses from six or eight of the woman
I present. These papers will be followed
I by brief discussions from the iloor.

I It strkes me very forcibly that the
American girl of today is tailor , stronger
and bettor looking than her immediate
prcdecvtoor of ton years ago , and con-
sldoring what huvco American beauties
-have dune abroad there is no predicting
the destruction they may bo destined to
I bin-cad in the future , writes Marion
C rawford in the Ladies' Homo Journal.
I 1 say this merely in pacing , binco no
roan who knows the world well would
I think of comparing beauty with
I charm in tl < o armorv of woman's
1 weapons. True- beauty necessarily
belongs to ono of a certain number of
types. The cliarm of charms lies in the
fact that it '
eac'apes definition as completely -
plotoly UB the odor of the wood-vlolot in
the spring , or the sensation produced by
n strain of rare music. Porhana it is
true , after all , that charm is but real
womanliness ; and If this bo admitted it
id no wonder that the American woman
has uioro thau * bo uued to havo. Some-
Jilnrr of the vast ofTerveHconco which
oversowed our mx'loty in the sudden fer
mentation remitting front great political
iiul social changes has begun to sub-tide.
The congenial oicmonU have found each
ether and are uniting in their duo proportion
portion- ; the congenial have been set
tling slowly , surely , to their own places.
The average height of women Is feet
2 Inches , but rarely does ono find n house
in a city or country In which any atten
tion has been paid to this fact In arrang
ing the closets. The hooks are usually
placed about six feet from the U x > r and
above them is placed a shelf which is
almost useless , unless a woman mounts
on a chair every time she wishes her
bonnet or shawl. In the ideal closet the
hooks are only four and one-half feet
from the Iloor and the shelf two or three
inches above it. The closet should bo
supplied with yokes , as clothing of all
kinds keeps in much better shape when
hung 011 yokes. The floors of closets
should bo smooth and all cracks should
bo filled up , that dust may not collect
therein.
Putty , plaster of parls , or oven finely
shredded newspaper may bo used to fill
up the cracks. Make a paste of the
paper by adding hot water and a llttlo
glue. Plaster of paris is simplest and
most satisfactory for the purpose.
Mix the powder with enough cold water
to make the paste of the right eunsist-
tency to spread and then fill In the
cracks. After the plaster is hard give the
floor two coatings of paint , to make it
look smooth and neat. In closets do-
votcd to shelves the helvos should have
spaces between them of not more than
fifteen inches , this space allowing suf
ficient room for most practicable pur
poses. Closet shelves should bo neatly
covered with sheets of white wrapping
paper , and the coverings should bo fre
quently removed and dusted. Great
earo should bo taken to guard against
moths in a closet where woolen clothing
is kept. The walls should bo frequently
washed , and the clothing aired and
brushed.
*
Satin , as a fabric for evening gowns on
maidens , can no longer shimmer with
the proud distinction of being first in the
Held of favor. A humbler rival with
modest colors has entered the contest
and bids fair to win the favor of the
ephemeral summer girl.
The indications may bo summed thus :
Satins are extremely popular but they
have begun to appear in "marked down
sales" and upon bargain counters at
great reductions ; in the place where the
satins used to bo are displayed eropons ,
silk crepons , wool erepons , and mixed
silk and wool cropous. Upon the bar
gain counters there is none , which is the
surest test of the status of a fabric.
Some of the colors are extremely sum-
mer-llko and pretty , especially the moss
grays , wood violets , apple greens , helio
tropes and petunia shades. Of these cool
gray is most sought for , , partly because
It is w > youthful and partly because its
possibilities for combination are un
limited.
Rose and turquoise blue , lavender ,
yellows indeed , all the desultory shadings -
ings of sunset are draped with the softly
falling lengths of eropon to make clTcct-
Ivo nnd girlish gowns , which are worn ,
none the less , by girls who have been
out/many a summer wason.

The line of charity in which Mrs.
Cleveland Interests herself Is a pecu
liarly sweet and interesting one. for it
is devoted to brightening the lives of
little children. Before little Ruth came
into her life , says the Now York Sun ,
Mrs. Cleveland was interested in the
scheme of founding free kindergartens
for poor and neglected children , nnd she
is now vice- president of the kindergar
ten society of which Richard Wat
son Gilder is president , and
which lias established nearly a
dozen free baby schools in the
slums of the city. And next to her in
terest in children Mrs. Cleveland's
solicitude for poor mothers manifests
itself. On certain afternoons of the
week those poverty-stricken mothers
gather in little groups in dilTcrent parts
of the city and talk about helpful house
hold topics over a cup of tea. Women
especially trained for the work preside
over these meetings and lead the con
versation in the right channels.
"Teach them how to live , " said Mrs.
Cleveland , while giving directions atone
ono of these "mothers' meetings. "
"Tell them that there Is a right way
and a wrong way of doing things , and
make them realize that the children
whieh are sent thorn straight from the
hand of God must be trained to go back
to Him. "
*
For traveling the bolgo , putty and
biscuit cloths , which do not show dirt ,
are preferred. It seems a mistake to
overload the capo , and for this reason
the capo with collarette made of differ
ent material or handsomely adorned has
a less cumbrous look than triple capes.
The very full capes of black satin
trimmed with numerous folds and bands
and having a shoulder capo are certain
to become popular.
There is an intimation that scarfs are
to bo fashionable. The successful wear
ing of a scarf , as the wearing of a shawl ,
is a triumph of feminine grace. The ad
justable wraps tliut have been worn for
some scores of years and required no
further attention after they were but-
ttned or tied , removed a great responsi
bility from women , which our grand-
niothors frankly assumed and carried
otT. These scarfs , it is said , will bo of
gauze silk or of the material of the
gown , and are to bo worn so as they will
not obscure the drapery and adornment
of the body , on whieh so much attention
is now bestowed.
*
The devotees of Mrs. Kendal , whoso
ostentatious goodness makes the most of
her remarks sound preachy , may like to
know what she says regarding matri
mony : "All my experience in life
teaches mo that two of a trade alwavs
agree in the married state. I would
have a tailor marry a dressmaker , a
painter marry a sculptress , and so on.
People are never so happy as when
talking shop , and I think it is a disastrous
thing when an aetret-s marries a man
who takes no interest in her success , or
when an actor has to go homo to a woman
who prefers not to hear the theater
mentioned. On the whole , the most
united married couples 1 have known
belong to my own profession. I am sure
an actress can bo quite us good a wife
nnd housemother as any other woman ,
rather better , perhaps , than her more
domestic sisters , for she always has to
have her wits about her , and that helps
her in daily life. "
In the Ohio house of representatives
'the ' bill extending school suffrage to the
women was defeated , 48 to 38.
The Minnesota senate has voted 20 to
14 in favor of an amendment extending
full suffrage to women.
In the Michigan house of representa
tives the bill granting municipal suf
frage to women was defeated by ono
voto.
In the Maine house of representatives
the bill granting municipal sullrago to
women was lost by nine votes , the same
majority as in Massachusetts.
The married women's proj > orty rights
bill lias passed both branches of the
Kentucky legislature. Both branches
have voted to give married women con
trol of tholr real estate , and to enable
them to make u will. The house wishes
lao to give thoiu control of their per
sonal property , and to equalize the
share to which husbands and wives
shall bo entitled In the estate of a
deceased partner.
In 1'enimylvanln the hoilno bill render.-
ing women eligible to the olllce of notary
public has been finally pasted.
Mrs. Laura do Force Gordon , a leading
lawyer on the Pacific coast , ha- ? filed
papers , endorsed by prominent men of
her state , for the consulship of Honolulu.
Mrs. Gordon is n prominent advocate of
woman suffrage , and has frequently
taken part In democratic campaigns.
Testimonials from the chairmen of the
democratic committees of JJtah , Wyo
ming and Nebraska certify to her value
in the last campaign , and , on account of
tills , claim that her application should
have careful consideration. As a bride
Mrs. Gordon accompanied her husband
to the front , and as a volunteer nurse
earned ollleial mention in the war
record for bravery and skill. After her
husband's death she engaged in journalIsm -
Ism , which she resigned for the study
and practice of law. She was the second
woman to bo admitted to the supreme
court of the United States , and was in
strumental In changing the law of Cali
fornia to admit women to the bar.

standing up on the front piece : their
trimming is luce , and they arc the per
fection of airy summer hoods. Chil
dren's lints have oblong crowns an inch
and a half high , from which flounces of

only tlio support afforded by the body of
the laeo or by invisible wires. Gingham
hats are shirred on cords set in groups ,
and at half-inch intervals. Wide brims
prevail In these hats nnd ruflles of em
broidery on the brim edge. The crowns
are couo-shaped , the beehive or dome ,
the largo Tarn , and a crown high and

A bevy of charming Now York brides
maids last week wore empire costumes
of palest primrose yellow chiffon , over
deep yellow satin , with immense fichu-
like brctolles of green velvet and soft
vesta of prlmroso yellow tulle , crossed
and recrosscd with orancro satin ribbons ,
which fastened ut the loft side with
many standing empire loops with float
ing ends of the f-amo. The undressed
kid gloves , stockings and suede shoes
were of pale yellow , and the largo leghorn -
horn hats were piped with green velvet
and trimmed with standing loops of rich
white lace and yellow jonquils.
Mrs. Potter wanted to bo mayor of
Kansas City , Kan. , and as the women
vote in that town , she thought she had
a walko\or. So on election day she rode
from ono polling place to another behind
a stylish pair. Her husband acted as
coachman and peddled ballots. Hero
was woman's sulTrago incarnated , but
the women knifed Mrs. Potter from
morn till bet of sun and elected a man.
Women who believe that the otllees
should bo filled by representatives of
the gentler sex will take a hint from
Mrs. Potter's experience and oppose female -
male btilTrago.

Two girls who went to Europe by
themselves last year and saw something
of Ireland , of Wales , much of the
beauty of rural England , spent two
weeks in London , three in Paris , went
through to Genoa , did some Alpine
climbing and saw the prettiest Swiss
towns , went to Germany , down the
Rhino , and to Brussels and Amsterdam ,
spent just $350 , including every expense.
Their trip lasted three months.
I'jinliloil Notes.
Neapolitan straw hats will again bo

Some new skirts have a very wide box
plait at the middle of the back.
A man was arrested in New York and
fined $5 for forcibly kissing six girls on

Round French waists showing neither
darts nor side forms , and arranged In
surplice fashion , often both front and
back , will be used on all sorts of summer
fabrics.
The pretty muslins or organdies with
flower designs or stripes or dots are
lavishly trimmed with lace rulllcs ,

the coming summor.
CtilTs worn outside the sleeves are

Broadcloths are particularly striking ,
their fine quality and beautiful color

among the fabrics that will bo used for

this spring.
Diamonds and other gems studded

Wide ribbon strings on bonnets are
once more to the front. They are of
shot and brocaded ribbons and tie be
neath the chin in the old fashion. Now
widows' bonnets have strings of corded
white ribbon , dull in finish and nearly a
finger broad.
Leagues of black laces have already
boon sold for trimming corsages , dress
skirts nnd mantles. They uro used by
the modisto for bretolles , collarettes ,
fichus , slcove-pulTs , juckot fronts , and
neck and belt garnitures. Ecru laces
will soon bo equally in demand.
The Duso turbans are becoming to
faces either round or slender , because ,
as the crown Is low and the brim of only
mouerate depth , the hat can bo left in
its original shape for slender-faced
women , or built up witli towering trim
mings for those with full faces.
No hat seems quite complete without
ut least four colors , , which in subdued
tints of elegant fabrics cleverly blended
graciously harmonize , but in the crude
coloring of cheap materials manipulated
by the tactless lingers of the ordinary
milliner , produce results bad enough
and bad enough to make angels weep.
A lovely pink dance dross Is madot of
