"Half these things the girls wear htive

"The world today needs more women of

Is no't the destroyer of woman. Woman
has been the destroyer of man. She was
made to help man."
lehonl Children's Aid.
Blxteen years ago Mrs. Murray P. Tuley
of Chicago organised a society for the
purpose of enabling destitute children to
attend tho public schools. It was abso
lutely necessary that something of the
kind should te done or the law compelling
school attendance would In many cases
prove a farce.
Mrs. Tuley saw the situation and with
a band of helpers decided to meet It In
tho best possible way. Thene ladles did
not believe In cold charity und they did
' not want city aid. They had too much
sympathy for the children to have them
marked as paupers or have their parents'
name perpetuated as Inefficient or unwill
ing. They went to work In a quiet way, ask
ing contributions from women's clubs and
from prlrato Individuals who were Inter
ested In. the cause. They secured from the
Board of Kducatlon permission to tuke up
a, collection In the schools once each year,
to be known as the thanksgiving collec
tion. It emphasized tho spirit of the giver
rather than tho destitution of the receiver.
There aro no paid officers connected with
the Children's Aid and there Is compara
tively little red tape. Tho supply wagons
of tho Hoard of Kducatlon deliver the pack
ages collected to the various schools, ac
cording to the requisitions mado by the
principals, and the needed articles are given
to the children privately. The givers huve
no Idea who tho receivers are and the lat
ter are In no wise humiliated by the gift.
Old Men and ounn Women.
Old men are proverbially more susceptible
to femlnlno charms than yountr ones, and it
Is from their ranks that tho annual crop of
easy marks Ih largely recruited, reports
Nlxola Greeley-Smlth 111 tho New York
World. One has orly to recall the most
sensational Incidents of the year's news to
realise that the heroes of the most sensa
tional romances and scandal are culled
from among the bald or snow white pates
of aged men.
. It has been said that a fool Is born every
minute, and It la certain that one In burn
all over again nearly every timo a solid,
sober, respectable cltlsen crosses the thin
line Into the 60s.
The men who have been most susceptible
to feminine influence In the world's history
have'not been among- Its youths. Antony
and Caesar wero both well past their prime
when they succumbed to the subtle lure ot
the Borpent of old Nile. Getting down to
modern times, there have been In the polit
ical history of nations Innumerable In
stances of gray-bearded statesmen lured
from tho paths their lagging feet had trod
from their political Infancy Into new and
Itrange policies by the mere nod of a pretty
woman.
There might be some wisdom In the ef
forts of a man criminal to secure Jurymen
who would not entirely have snrvlved tho
thoughts and Impulses which might lead
them to sympathy with him. But a woman
n trial for uny erlmo ought to realise that
(he older the Juryman the easier he will be
to please and the greater her chance there
fore of winning his favor. To please a
man unde.' 25 or over fiO Is the easiest thing
In the world. For they are too anxious to
be pleased to be really discriminating. A
cowlick, a eockeje. a hare lip even, might
submit Its cause to a Jury of graybeards
and not suffer from the physical defect
half so much as before a body of younger,
and therefore more discriminating, men.
It requires a larger modicum of good
looks to be a young man's slave, as we are
told we must be, thnn to fill the easier role
of an old man's darling. When an admirer
of the weaker sex has once passed the 60
mark, almost anything goes with him.
And a woman has to be Indeed ugly not to
command some measure of his too facile
admiration.
There are actually some young men who
can resist the final feminine argument of
tears. But If any pretty young woman on
triul for her life wer able to select her
Jury entirely from men of fiO and upward,
and could shed a few slow tears of anguish,
she need have no fear of the result.
Hustling; for a Hotel.
Many unlquo occupations for women are
heard of nowadays, but probably Baldwin,

traveling men who make this hustling Ut

German and American Wemen.
When the delegates to the International
Congress of Women returned from Or-
many this summer they reported the
progress of German women, but found
them far behind their American cousins
In point of scholarship and social advance-
menj
Since then Frau Marianne Weber, wife
of Prof. Max Weber of Heidelberg, has
come to America and has chosen to say
a few words In behalf of her countrywo-
men and the progress they are making
In what she calls "tho feminist move
ment." Mrs. Weber does not by any means find
German women so far behind American
women. She says: "I do not consider the
American woman remarkable for her eru
dition or advanced Ideas. There are In
Europe women quite as learned and quite
as progressive as any In America perhaps
more so " Then she adds: But the qual-
uy ot me American woman is inw mt
tlcal, useful way In which she applies her
education and makes It count for progrces
and social betterment. She Is able to do
this because of her fearlessness and ber
confidence In herself and also because of
the American man's confidence In her."
Mrs. Weber has visited some of the lead-
Ing colleges for women In this country,
but she does not wax enthusiastic over
them. She thinks the quality of Instruc
tion given there Is far below that found
in similar Institutions for men. In her
opinion the existence of such colleges Is
a detriment, since they tend to shut, out
women from the more solid Instruction In
the best universities.
. , . ., , . ...
"There Is doubtless far more than a
grain of truth In what Frau Weber says,"
comments t lie Chicago Chronicle, "and yet
It seems better to women In this country
. . i.i i,.. -i.. .!,.. .
to accept half a loaf rather than no loaf
at all. Women In Germany may event-
ually como out aheud In point of Intel-
lectual attainment, but meanwhile Amer-
Iran women, as Is the rutins; thing In a

Frau Weber speak. Is of Itself no s.lght

Art of Flower Pressing;.
r.. .i..,,., . . . ... ,lMJ j.j
Vurlous publications more or iess devoted
to the interests of women frequently con-
tain long articles on some line of work
open to them and the success which has
,..., . .
attended those who have ventured therein,
But among them there Is no mention of
the art of flower pressing, which hus been
. , . . .
so successfully followed by at least women
In the west.
Mrs. A. Q
Conreid is the owner of
flower ranch In Colorado and takes largo
contracts for pressed flowers. Her prlnci-
pal buyers are managers of art stores, who
. . . .
use the flowers in souvenir books und
enrds, dinner cards, etc. Borne of hur con-
tracts call for the work of an entire season,
the season being from early May till late
October. .
Her helpers are semi-invullds and tourists
, , ... j . . .
who for the summer out ot doors and the
congenlal employment ure willing to work
fur their simple living expenses. The
,.
stronger ones are paid $3 a month and all
ure welcome to leurn what they can of
tho business. From one to four helpers Is
the rule.
Tho work begins with the anemones In
early May and la..- until the autumn
leaves are gone In October. Tho seasons
are often varied, for the same kinds of
, , , ..
flowers will come earlier or mature later
In one yeur than another. Great watchful
uesa Is netc-soury and Mrs. Conreld often
tukes long walks to sea how the flowers
are coining on. The greatest care must
bo taken to 'father the flowers at Just the
right time. As boon as the btamuns. petals
, , ,
or pistils begin to turn dark or change
color In any way the blossom is too old fur
presl.ig

In the afternoon the flowers ure put In
press. Three newspapers are folded once,
the top upon the bottom, making about
thirty-six thicknesses, and laid upon tha
tablo. A single sheet of newspaper is laid
,h . . .
upou these, and then upon it are spread
from fifteen to twenty-five blossoms, a
smoothly as possible, so us not to wrinkle
the petals Above these are laid another
single sheet of paper, one sheet of blotting
paper and the three newspupers again.
These layer, are repeated a. lonS as It is
convenient for the worker to reach the top
of the pllo from a sitting position. A pile
from two to three feet high 1. carried to
the press, which is a simple ufTair, much
like thut used by all flower collectors
,r. ,
The top board is first acrewed down
moderately tight, but in a few hours the
pressure Is greatly increased. After twenty-
four hour, the presses are changed, that
