SUNSHINE OF WOMAN'S CHEER How it Gladdens the Heart and Brightens the Home. THE CHRONIC SCOLD AND FAULT FINDER The man—Bernhardt's Latest Monstrosities— —Parting Words of Luey Stone—Faots, ¥ads and Fashions. The happy woman who always looks on the bright side and is cheerful under the most adverse circumstances has been the theme of many a poem and apos- trophe by professionals and amateurs ever since men wrote their thoughts, and, better thau this, she has been the mainstay of her family in times of trouble when all else failed. When pickness and trouble come, as long as the mother has hope the father thinks things will turn out right. but when all hope fails and even the mother is forced to realizo that the sorrow is inevitable, it is then that the other members of the family give way. Even then hor sorrow i8, repress d and she, mever thinking of self, trics to point out some hopo in all the mi . The crown a woman wears in times like these is mbove all exvression of appreciation and though poets may strive todo her justice with all their genius, and great students of human nature like Dickens and Mra. Browning may pay high trib- ute, it is the experienco only which fully demonstrates what a comfort and blessing she is to those with whom she is associated. Thess things are alla matter of habit. If we continually strive to be happy and contented ani will look for the good that is every- thing, we will unconsciously become strong and ready for the emergency when it comes, then one day it will bo said, “Oh, she does vot deserve any credit for being always cheerful and kind, it i nature, I wish it were mine.” Will not lhh'hu reward enough? Py Don't be a scold. Be above it. There e some things that grow on one una- wares and the habit of finding fault is one of these. There is a woman living in the city who has two little sons, about 10 and 12 years of age. She will ask them to do something for her, and they are good little fellows, and go at once, and she will say, “Now if you boys don't hurry faster than you generally do I will ‘come and do it myself; there is no living with you.” The boys then try to hurry and perhaps let_something fall or gpill it and then she will say, *“For good- ness sako, why can't you bo careful and not come so fast, it is not a matter of life and death.” The children will very likely think if thoy do not say, “Mamma is vory hard to please.” No one in the world has such a sense of justice asa child, and the mother will certainly lose hold of one of the strings to the heart of tho boy if she is unjust to him. One of the golden rules of life is to say nothing, if you have nothing pleasant to eay. s T . This will not always work; like all rules, golden and otherwise, it is some- times better kept in the breach than the observan A minister of the gospel once said, & woman, too, “T think ado- ‘mestic cyclone is necessary sometimes. ustFive everything a good turning over and seattering, it does them good. The day has gone by when women’ ave sup- osed to smile no matter what happens. ut like a cyclone in Kansas let it be short and to the point, and then drop the subject. Don't have one all the time.” . That is good advice. If things cannot possibly be borne, and you are sure you have good cause, say what you 'think and feel and _have done. with it. Don't nag. If it is understood thav youonly talk when ' you have something to say, those with Whom you have dealings will soon learn to iisten, as they will discover it is their Joss if they do not. Of course some “women cun live and always be smiling, but they are the exceptional ones. And they are usually the selfish ones of the world who have things their own way lalways asa matter T course. *"% Lat us protest against it! It requires an elevated railway, an intramural or a moving sidewalk to be thus jorked up. slid along, pushed backward and whirled around. What is the meaning of this new manner of meeting one's friends? shrieks the New Orleans Times-Demo- orat. Analyzed, it is not pleasant. There is an olement of patronizing in it; each trios to lift the other up to his height, and then, by stiffening of the elbow, keep him, when 8o honored, at a cortain distance. 3 This may do very well for a new sec- tion, whero such efforts and restrictions are necessary, but here there is no need for such things. They were satis- factorily arvanged generations ago by our ancestors. They gracefully extended their hands, feoling perfect equality, and clasped warmly the hands of a friend, cordially oxtended in return, implying mutual confidence and real friendsnip, and in such asalutation thern was grace and good breeding. 1 confess that this protest comes from a personal experience of uncomfortable nsations after undergoing this new method, and a determination, in conse- quence, to omit handshaking altogether. The English are, I believe, credited with this innovation, but this is doubt- less slander, or perhaps it is due to a orrtain class of English not to be imi- tated in this or other things. Is there not, after all, a certain pro- vincialism in adopting every new man- perism? Should there not be some- thing individual and characteristic in our retaining permanontly the manner desconding to us through a line of gentlefolk? Material things—dress, house and equipage—are under the rule of change, but should manner of thought and method of life, to such an extent, be so controlled? In the name of progress much grace of living is lost in this hurried and breathless age, in this nervous and rest- less conntry, and it scems to me mnch of its dignity is also forfeited, * *"e The number of grossly extravagant women who carry the burden of their debts about London society is enormous. Muny of them are very rich, but that fact does not prevent them from out- running the constable. Wo know in- stances of famous women in the London world at this moment, says Hearth and Home, whose husbands are worth large fortunes, women who have dress- makers' bills they cannot pay, which they simply dare not show to the men whose liberal allowances they have squandered in reckless follies. One beauty told us the other day that she owod her dressmaker £2,500, and that she saw no more prospect of paying her than of paying the national debt. She did not dare to mention the bill to her husband, rich though he was, and so she compromised the matter by ordering more gowns that she didu't want, and wllow: n&lhu dressmaker to charge any- thing”she liked for thew. And so the saowball of debts rolls merrily on, gathering sizo in its progress. Once a woman has got into debt she sooms to lose her head. The plunger spirit seizes her. Shedoes not care what she does. Her balance is lost. She lets horself be canght like a grain in the whirlwind, and danced over and into any number of pitfalls and abysses. P There are some homes which dis- tinctively impress themselves on the minds of the visitor as being abodes of artistic refinement and comfortable ele- gance. They need not be extravagantly furnished and yet there is something about them that appeals to the nicest sense as soon a8 the front door is opene When callod upon to analyze this pe- culiar beauty it rosolves itself into the conclusion that such a place s sweeter and better than others, because at ever, turn one meets with bits of living green that serve to make it peculiarly at- tractive. Where the staivs turn is set a plump little jar, with a growing palm that spreads out its inviting leaves to the ono who journeys upwards. In the hall neat the settee is a rubber plant, bright and chee ts groenness seeming to smile a woelcome to the visitor, and on the din- ing room table in a ncat little silver cir- cle are a few ferns that breathe the beauty of the summer woods through all the long hours of the winter, Wherever plants are introduced there comes a to est bit of by vac or the most ex- pensive painting never produces, Win- dow boxes filled with the quaint old- timey geranium, and their bright soms give an air of cheery comfort to a room that leaves its impression upon the minds of those within and outside of the apartment. Such bits of adornment are not ex- pensive and requive but little care to keep in vigorous and healthy growth. The attention necessary for them is in itsell bene 1 and should not be given over to the charge of servants. To cut off the dry leaves, to see that suflicient water is given and to protect them from the cold at night should be the duty of the mistress of the house or one of those who have a rightful claim upon the home as their abode. Though rigid economy must needs be practiced the introduction of a single plant will give an air of luxury, and if to this is added a blithe little canary in its cage, there will be that ‘‘homey” feeling that cannot be defined, but makes itself so keenly felt. hlos- P Down in a basement on Bridge street, Brooklyn, says the Noew York Herald, there lives a man whom the Johunies and dudes on the rialto must , for while the unsentimental stage eoper would not under any circum- es permit a single Johnnie or dude behind the enes this fortunate dual, who makes his home in the City of Churches, is allowed to come and go us he pleases. For years it has been his privilege to measure the feet of footlight favorites, such as Lillian Russell, Marie Tempest, Maggie Cline, Mathilde Cottyelly, Mat- tie Vickers, Helene Mora and Mary Howard. William Rolff is the artistic cobbler’s name. Marie Temvest, he told me, has the smallest foot in the profession. ““Why,"” he exclaimed, “it is hardly & number one. I believe she has the finest instep of any woman living. It is perfect. For thirty-five years I have made slippers and shoes for theatrical people, and during that time have fitted over a thousand women, but I never made slippers for any feet so tiny and shapely as Miss Tempest's.” Mr. Rolff says Miss Russell's foot is a pretty foot for a woman of her size. Mr. Rolff fits these artists in their dressing rooms on the stage. % *'s About this time the careful house- keeper bogins to have her blankets washed one by one mn the weekly wash to be ready for the coming winter. She does not wait for cold weather, either, before having sagging sash cor placed with new ones, cracked w panes removed and draughty places at- tended to. It is a great mistake to wait until necessity becomes a spur to the procrastinator. “Take time by the fore- ock,” and as the autumn wanes make due provision for the coming wiater. * T el One of the notable oddities of charac- ter that distingnish Sarah Bernhardt is her love of making vets of all manner of cer beasts and reptiles, such as would e the ordinary woman cold chills. It is an asp or an alligator or a horned toad that she takes to her bosom and lavishes her sweetest caresses upon, and the visitor to her boudoir is almost sure to get a succession of short, sharpshocks from stumbling in dark corners across all sorts of horrid little beasts. Her funcy changes much, and on a foreigi trip she is sure to pick up half a do new atrocities, 8o that her menagerie is looked for on her return with interest second only to that bestowed on her divine self. Her cent tour in South America was expected to be productive of a whole retinue of new horrors, but her fancy took a new turn. She got back to Paris two or threo weeks ago, and her menagerie accompanied her, but it consisted only of three little pumas, ten monkeys of various dogrees of hairy ugliness, and an aviary of 300 or’so ditferent birds. * *"x A story is going the rounds about a little woman who the other night was seated at the theater behind u gorge- ously dressed beauty whose balloon sloeves complotely hid the stage from the victim in the rear. She sat first on one foot and then the other, but all in vain; not a glimpse of the play could she get. After a whispered conversation with her husband came the tragedy. Without a word of warning that wee bit of woman quietly rose, gently but firmly laid her hands upon the winged shoulders of her obtrusive neighbor, and pressed her green and violot rufiles as far down as they would go. Peoplo who saw the operation gasped at the transformation. The victim easily ac- cepted the situation, and remained in subjugation until the end of the play. «"e What shall be done with the photo- graphs which are yearly on the increase? There have been albums and photo- graph frames and bags, both small and great, in which to deposit them, and still they accumulate, A pretty idea for 4 photograph case is to take a piece of cardboard of any size desired, and cover plainly with pink silk, Cover anothor piece, slightly smaller, 85 in drawing, joining this to the first, and still another piece slightly smaller than the second.

Or this corner may be made of white or ecru leather., Faswen the outside edges to- geother, leaving spaces between each card for the photographs and finish the case with a bow of pale green ribbon to mateh the ferns, For amateur _photographecs another -que-Iiun is to make an album of water color paper, in which the unmounted “snap shots” are to bo ted and each photograph outlined with splashes of i;iIL The outside of the album is of heavy pasteboard covered with linen and decorated with lettering suggestive | as hard as you | them away ok of beauty that the costli- | of contents.

Women of this class who save them- selves ave never without fans and para- 5015, These protections are cavriod summer and winter, in and out of doors, raised whenever there isa trying lig to face. Parasolettes are made to orde Those for ovs, art gal- are not much than a tea plate. Carriage para- solettes are about twelve inches in diameter. Then there are hand screens made of bolting cloth, sewing siik, gauze, ete., mounted on ivory wood and kept on library, toilot and center tables to shield the eyes from gas or ficelight. But the stable article is a fan, and women who know its real value, aside from the decorative, eat, sleep, vead and live with it in hand. 1t is this sort of protection for the eyes that rotards sumulation of wringles and pre- s tho sight. The early adoption and coutinuous use of broad-brimmed hats for weak-eyed girls is a timoly pre- ventive of untimely crow’s toes and wrinkles. x *'x The last articulate words that Lucy Stone uttered were whispered in the ear of her daughter. ‘“Make tho world bet- ter.” The woman died as she had lived, brave and fearless and hopeful to the last. *L have not the smallest appre- hension,” she said. ‘I know the eter- nal order, and I believe in it.” To a friend who expressed the wish that she might have lived to soo woman’s sul- frage granted, she said: “Oh, I shall know it. I think I shall know it on the other side. And if I don't,” she added, contentediy, ““the people on this sido will know it.” To some one else, who suggested the possibility of her coming back to communicate with those she had left, she answered: ‘'I expect to be too busy to come back. Porhaps I shall know about the women voting where 1 am, and if not I shall be doing some- thing better. I have not a fear, nor a dread, nor a doubt. I think I have done what I could here. I certainly have tried.

Women in this state have voted at public school meetings for trus- the New York Sun, but the them the opportunity this d in line with the men and chool commissioners. Women ated for this office in y many distric most often by the prohibitionists. InPort Jervis there are women opponents for the honor, both the republicans and prohibitionists 1 i ominated women for the oflice. Voting schools have boen opened by the women in several towns,and they are ve- ceiving lessons on how to do their duty at the polls, The woman prohibition- ist candidate in Peekskill is making a strong fight against a republican man who is unmarried and *'a great favorite with the lad 4 Some idea of woman’s interest in the elections is shown by these figures of the number of women already voegistered in various towns and villages: Port Jervis, 900; Johnstown, 220; Penn Yan, 565; Elba, 2201 Byron, 180, and Savan- nah, 160, * *"x A new feminine Utopia, from which man is excluded, has been established the Cherokee Strip, and it bears the ap- propriate name of the Daisy Community. s enerall ool /in e nowapanete prior to the opening of the Strip that Miss Annette Daisy, a Kentuckian of some celebrity as a boomer in previous land openings, was camped on the line with some forty spinsters and widows, and purposed leading them into the Strip to secure a section or s0 and estab. settlement.

The wife of one of the millionaire manu- facturers of New England, wishing to please her husband not long ago, chose one of his 10 cent calicoes at the mill when on & visit of . inspection, had it made up by her dressmaker, and wore it to his intense gratification—for she never looked prettier or sweeter 1n her life than when gowned in the cheap lit- tle print. But she did not think it worth while to mention to her unsophisticated spouse that the bill for the making, trimmings, ete., amounted to $30. Fashion Notes.

A good feature in felt hats is the fin- ishing of their edges with two or more rows of rolled satin or with silk-covered wire. Regarding hats, flat crowns are seon, both high and low, but dome-shaped crowns, more or less high, appeal to favor.

The new shades in blue are either in silver tints or of a greenish tone like peucock, drake's neck, or the lovely Neavolitan biue found only among the richest fa © Notos. The old silver castor is being revived this season. The latest fad among women is the collection of silver hatpins instead of spoons or forks. Perfeetly round pearls are the most valuable: next come the pear shaped and then the egg shaped. Ornamental toilet necessities are now nickel plated and with handles of chased silver. They stand upon silver rost Pyvenese wave is a rathor primitive sort of pottery with'gaudy floral pat- terns. It is liked for water pitchers and beer jugs. Envelope moisteners aro something new.

Michigan was aavanced to the front line of honor by the woman suffragists last year because of the passage of an act by the legisiature permitting women o vote at municipal elections, and there was much elation in the camp thereat. But the supreme court has just declared the law unconstitutional, handing down a decision at Lansing last week declar- ing 1t utterly void. *Dear Lord,” said an Atchisod man the other morning at grace, ‘'l would ask Thy blessing on this food, butl vealize it is cooked too miservably for Thee to waste Thy valuable time in blessing, so instead I urge it upon Thee that Thou instil into my wife's heart that it is better to cook ‘steak accepta- bly for one man than to raise 810 by working two weeks for a church social.” The indignant woman has gone to her mother's. Mrs. Amelia Waite, president of the Mary Washington Monument t several days inspecting the work of preparation for the erection of the monument, says that all the stone- work of the old monument erected sixty yeavs ago has beon removed and excava- tions carefully made, but no trace of the coffin could be found and it was believed thav the body must have been buried in some other part of the lot.

After having indulged considerably he went to his hone and proceeded to *‘clean out the house.” He beat his wife and threw his several sons out of the house. One of them telephoned for the patrol, but when it reached its destination the tables had been turned.
