Mrs. Edward Hines of Chicago, a ‘woman of:repute for good dais- turbed the court by the a a family.” The opposing lawyer did not like the definition and attempted to make her confess that she had erred, without avail. Mrs, Hines insisted that her life- work consisted in making home pleas- ant for her husband, in bringing up her children in the way that they should go, in superintending the domestic ar- rangements and being constantly “on the job.” Her recreation was philan- thropy, but the scene of her really se- rious labors was the home. This is certainly an employment which requires as much work and tact and genius as any vocation under the sun, and she honored womanhood and | motherhood by her dignified averment that this was her vocation, while phil- anthropy was just a diversion. With many of her own sex. Mrs. Hines will not stand well because of this declaration, for those who look back with disdain upon grandmothers who baked and brewed and spun, or swept and laundried and gardened, could never appreciate a woman who looks upon the home duties as ‘the first and most important duties of life; but there are a few. thousands of old-fashioned people remaining who regard her as a model woman, whether she measures up to the 20th century idea of things or mot. All honor to Mrs. Hines as a home- builder who knows her duty and strives to honorably perform it. GREEN'S FIRST HALF-MIL- LION. Mrs. Hetty Green, who has long been reputed to be the richest woman in America, and, if anything, the closest in the management of money matters, has given her first half-milifon for the public good, and it discloses a taste MRS. DISCIPLINE, Rear Admiral Nazro of the Ameri- cah navy has been retired two years wefore his time becauss he declined 0 do & stunt of 50 miles in three days on foot or bieycle just to demonstrate his physieal endurance, and some rid- icule is being made of the rule which requires such a performance of duty as it is rezarded as being as foreign 1o the subject as requiring a police- an to tell how high the Groton mon- sent is as an evidence of his fitness to patrel a beat. 1In defence of Rear Admiral Nazro, it is said that he is below the medtum height and his legs are notably short. 17 the preseription, fifty miles in three days, 18 regarded as a suitable test for a2 man of average stature and length of leg—to say. nothing of the six- footérs—the test ought to have been modified in order to give Admiral Nazro a falr show. To cover fifty miles vould require of him, say, twice as many steps as would serve for a taller officer to make the distance; hence it is alleged that the test is not just to him. Obedience is the prime quality for a subordinate anywhere, whether in the military or commercial world; and dis- phedience is always the source of con- Yusion if not of disaster. When a rear admiral refuses to obey orders he L setting a bad exampls to everybody In the service. It is not for him to on the sense or value of an or- ler, it is only his office to do and to fare. The test may be as much for jhe temper of those affected as for cal endurance. It proved its worth his case, A QUESTION OF TRAPS, The protection of private residences from sewer gas is a live issue and one hich should interest the people ev- rywhere. In Baltimora the old bat- e is on of whether or not drain traps een the house and sewer shall be and the cities in which the been settled are coming o Baltimore’s aid. The Providence urnal, taking up the question, says: “WWhen the question was agitated in dence, the inspector of plumbing ocated the retention of the main n trap in the interest of public h. Without the trap it was shown at in houses closed for the summer e evaporation of water In the fixture Japs would bring about dfrect con- ection with the sewer and would be ent to carrying an open pipe m the sewer into living rooms. It Y £ r not the h plumbing is ‘Another argument i= that as the owner pays for the trap on s own premises the city has no right to deprive him of protection against sewer gas, and that if sewer engineers provide the ventilation needed duals should not be called upon ect mistakes in design or con- struetion. Obviously if sewers are in- Mclently ventilated the men respon- e for the trouble should be ordered do their work over or engineers of experience and ability should be en- zaged. If Baltimore property owners are alive to their own interests the theorists who for some unaccountable and an aim which is rather surprising to her critics. She desires to found a free university of art—she wants a permanent income of $20,000 & year devoted to developing the finer tastes of the people, to awakening in them not only the power to appreciate the beautiful but also to create objects of beauty and worth, That she has a fancy for art is shown by the fact that she {s the owner of quite a coMection of paintings about which nothing has been said. Mrs. Green has been per- sistently presented to the people through the press as a money grubber, but the world may have to revise its opinion of her by and by as it has had to its opinion of the late Russell Sage.
