WOMAN BEFORE THE CAMERA Distinguished Photographer Uses Rare Words in Describing the Gentler fex. YHE HOGARTHIAN CURVE IN ITS POSE A Sensible Protest Agminst the Evil of Overstudy Among € Clipping Bureau Women to Consider. Sarony has boen writing about the famous women who have posed before his camora, says the New York Sun, and during the last forty years he has photo- graphed almost all the famous women who have been in this country. o In the first place he says that it isn't poul-stirring to photograph women in their ordinary attire, but that a genuine artist can revel in making negatives of motresses “in character.” Mod jeska, nc- cording to Sarony, has all the fire which oharacterizes the Pole. Once, when asked 1o recite at a society, function, she held her hearers spellbound while she repeated what was supposed to be the fncarnation of tragedy. She confessed that sho had recited only the alphabet in her native tongue, but it showed her power. As Rosalind Modjeska makes, a8 Sarony says, an “idyllic” picture. The photographer is, in fact, rather inclined to draw pretty largely on the resources of the English language when Tie is on the subject of his famous sitters. Speaking of Bernhardt, for instance, he Bays: 3 “Her figure is not the apotheosis of perfection, but, as an artist, 1 was charmed with her pulchritudinous per- sonality.” As if this were not startling enough, he further remarks that there is ‘‘a ginuous grace in her movements, a Hogarthean curve in her poses.” 1t seems that Sarah always addressed her American photographer as *‘mon petit Sarony.” The gentleman himself says that she alled him ‘“mon petite Barony,” but it doesn’'t seem possible that she would so unkindly mix the genders of her speech. Wishing to photograph Bernhardt as Leah, Sarony requested her to expose her bare feet. “She had on stockings with fingers for the toes,” ho says, *‘but I would not have them. He evidently took advantage of the opportunity to study the contour of the nctress feet, for he says that they were beautiful, even classic: that between the great too and the one next to it there was a space such as the women of Greece had inthe days when eaadals were worn. Of Christine Nilsson he says that she was cold. ‘‘She could not understand my impulsive, artistic nature, und the result was I could not work with feel- ing.” That was really too bad of Nile son, But it was different with Risto *'She fired me with her tragic anima- tion, and my artistic nature immediately felt the effect.” Apparently Ristori’s artistic nature was also fired, for Sarony suys: . "“Why, I actually saw Marie Antoin- .ette before me and not her mimic. The .veins in her classic forhead swelled, and I have a negative to prove my asser- _ tion,” Of Clara Morris he says that he had been carried away by hér work on the stage. She shed real tears, and that peemed to go a long ways with Sarouy. But she didn't manage to produce tears before the camera; hence, to.her pho- tographer, she was disappointing. She (simply, according to him, had the ap- pearance, not of an actress, but of a woman who has heart secrets and has puffered. And as he did not find it pos- sible to ‘‘photograph the soul of a woman,” he considered her unsatisfac- tory. Of Lotta he says: ‘‘A little actress who has the sacred fire, 1s Lotta. She {8 inimitable, although she has more imitators than any one else. Before the camera she inspives one and gives an impression of great sincsrity. Lillian Russell is still beautiful and popular. Ada Rehan is impulsive and naive. Her manners, though,” are plain and un- affected, and 1 have no trouble in posing her. Julia Marlowe is beautiful and has the artistic temperament. Mme. “Janauschek, in somo of her character: reminded me of a living statue. She is grand. “I had thought that Mary Anderson, before the camera, would have the superb bearing of a tragic queen, but .she was most natural and pleasant, Mrs, Ballington Booth has a beantiful face. If any one can wear an old poke bonnet and the Salvation army dress aud look beautiful, nature is simply delying cos tume. But in twenty years her photo- graphs taken now will Tepresent her as more lovely than the beautics who are photographed in the vresent fashion, 1 do not admire the styles now in vogue, but I suppose the eye gets used to it. Charlotte Cushman often came to m; zalle She had nothing finical about er. She wasn't squeamish before the camera, but was calm, dignified, the in- carnation of the woman who understood herself. Benosath thut calm face of hers 1 felt that there existed g will which challenged fate to do its worst, I could not sepurate the two, the tragic queen and the woman in her private lifo. * e If the voive of & laywoman could pre- vail where that of the physician appav- ently cannot, I would beg all mothers on my ‘“bounden tnees,” as a cortai small malaprop has it, to make a valiant stand against that crying evil of the day, overstudy. Our children are kill- ing themselyes, writes Lou wards in the Philadelphia Press, and we and their teachers ave letting them do it, with more lessous than they can possibly learn, Medals and honor's are poor compensations for shuttered bodies and weakened brains, and the average 8chool report bristles with more studies than the ehildren ave likely o need in the kivgdom of heaven, whither an un- due proportion of our ambitious little upils are graduated. This has all een sald before, and better said, and must seemingly be suid botte ill be- foro crumming is pluced in the list of absolute barbarities, One word, however, to these whose children are so unfortunate as to be entangled in our vast graduate-making machive, her farcical public school sys- tem. Do not blame the teacher for the cramming. It is not her fault that an fron-clad system which requives that she shall choke 8o much meutal food down s0 many throats in a given time, and be sharp about it, too, puts her in the position of the Red Queen, whom the illustraticn in *Threugh the Looking Glass” shows dragging & breathless lit- tle Alico through square after squave of the field marked out for ber, crying SPaster! faster!” although neither really touches her feet to the ground. / This is & world where we learn worid- liness very young, and the youthful Ward McAliisters and their sisters who dominate the sceial system of the sehool almost always grade the candidates on a clothes basis, At a cortain school a pretty, modest, good-natured girl lived practically in Coventry becuuse & mother apparently born without judg- ent aressed her in silks, satins, scar- Jets and laces more appropriate both in msterial and cut for tight rope dancing THE OMAHA DAIYL BEE: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1893-SIXTEEN PAGE! than for storming learning's heights.

An unjust teacher (such exist, in spite of what I have said on the other side), a bullying playmate, a dif cult lesson, a failire to pass an examina- tion, wring little hearts with the same anguish as do the sorrows over which we make moan, and call the heavens to witness and sympathize, and taking life “for by und | ' are of equal moment. For a number of his most impressible years, school and school surroundings make up “the round world and all that dwell therein,” and if the overruling providence of his mother's love and care do not follow him there, he is left desolate indeed. e On the top floor of the Judge build- ing, in I'ifth avenue, there are two girls who are more thoroughly “up to date” than even ‘1492 They sit at a long table under the skylight and paste newspaper olippings on to slips of paper. In an ac table, more girls and a number of men sit and read newspapers all day long. +t through 800 papers a day, and, pt on Saturdays, vhen they draw ir salaries, they curse the day that printing was invented.

Of this number quite one-half are women. They are mostly writers, or authoresses as the litorary “girl in_the front room calls them. That girl is a marvel of in- formation. You can go through the whole 3,000 names and chtechise her on them all and she won't miss a question. She is aid to be an oracle in her family and among her friends. Her particular work is sifting out the notices of liter- ary people, and she hasn’t much of an opinion of the craft. She dcesn’t aspire to write abook. She thinks it's too common, Butanthoressesare not the only women who want to know what the world says about them. Society queens are quite as curious as to the expression in the eye of the public as it looks at them. And there ave actresses on the list, and artis a few of them only, because they are generally too impecunious—and wives of prominent men, and, in fact, all sorts and conditions of womenm. Mrs. Potter Palmer has been the most popular woman, journalistically speak- ing, in this country during the past ar. [n May alone Mrs. Palmer re- cd 1,311 notices of herself through the bureau. This was a comparatively small proportion of those that were priuted, for she excluded all Chicago papers, which, of course, teemed with references to her, and received only im- portant ones from other papers. 5 R Sometimes when a woman Is in search of board it seems rather hard that tie landladies of the various establishments where she applies should give her so plainly to understand that they would be prefer by all odds to have their houses filled with men, writes a lady in the col- umns of the Philadelphia Times. 1t scems as though in this as in overy- thing else men have the best of life, and. yet when you take into consideration the ways of many women boarders it {:s no wonder that men are the preferred eings, "o begin with, a man goes away in the morning and does not return until din- ner time at night. As a rule the man who boards disappears after dinnor as well, in order to make a call upon some favored lady, or to take in the theaters or concerts, but with most women it is very ditferent. Unless they are em- vloyed during the day they manage to make more fuss in their rooms in one hour than a man would in a month. They wash out their handkerchiefs and stick them on the glass to dry; they cook up little messes over tho gas and, as a rule, they keep eatables that attract mice to their apartments, and if they were called upon to do so could get a respect- able meal with the number of kitchen utensils that they have packed around in out of the way corners. ‘When dressmaking time comes around they haunt the kitchen in questof irons, causing the cook to lose her temper, and 50 disarrange the modus operandi of that ccatral point in the house—the range—that it is a wonder that meals are served on time or cooked half way decently. A woman never yet hired o room without demanding some change in its furniture. She either hasa rooted objection to & folding bed and mist have an upeight one, or, on the contrary, she is anxious to make her room into a little parlor, and therefore must have her sleeping place vesemble a bookease or a piano, If she is musical there is no telling what instrument may be tortured dur- ing the waking and farinto the sleeping hours, She is seldom a professional and her efforts are pleasing only to he: If there are other women bearde the house she beeomes at first frantic intimate with them, and later on after a quarrel gossip and scandal runs rvife, to the ¢ smay of the landlady, who has to listen to both sides of the story and manage with all the tact possible to pre- vent a rupture when they come in con- tact at the table, They are far more fussy about their food then men, and though of course thoy have many rights that should be observed when the case is summed up, it is no wonder that a woman who has to tuke hoarders for her living would pre- fer having maseuline to feminine ones, * ¥y Women of the English court in the thirteenth century used ‘“‘skewers” of bone, ivory or boxwocd, instead of the ping, which were not then known, though we are told that a little later 20,000 pyunes were ordered for the Princess Joan,” says the Philadelphia Press. Bat the es 1{' substitutes for the pins of toduy were doubtless of a yory clumsy sort. History repeats itsolf in the tri- fles as in the great affairs of life, and pins have been found in KEgyptisn tombs strongly resembling in gencral style and size those used in England 300 years ago, the Oviental pins being of finer work- manship and more richly wrought. Ancient Mexiean dames used long ta- pering thorns, a very convenient natural pin, a constantly supplied pin cushion being at hand just outside the door. During Henry VIIL's reign the man- ufactire of brass pins became so im- portant un industry as to cause a law to assed ‘“for the true making of pPynues to wit, that no person shall put 10 sale any pynnes bat only such as shall be double” headed and have the heaa soldercd fast to the shank, the pynnes L\A-EI’ smoothed and the shank well sharp- ned. Pin muking inthe United States was begun soon after the war of 1812, when & paper al them sueh as can now be had for 6 cents cost $1. In 1824 the first con- trivance wus patented for making by machivery solid headed pins. Black pins are either common brass pins ja- panned or steel pins tempored to a doop purple, the latter being less brittle and consequently more durable. Immense factories with exceedingly complex ma- chinery are now daily furnishing fabu- lous numbersof these ‘‘small comfortable convenien, Tons of copper are daily fashioned into implements so tiny that the weight of one is imperceptible. Speaking of pins recalls the school s composition upon the subject in which he declared that pins had saved the lives of thousands of people. When ho was asked how, he replied: *“Wh by not swallowing them!” Also curring and forever unanswered drum: ‘‘What becomes of the pins?”’ * ba conun *"e Inexperienced housekeepers should rememoer that perfect cleanliness in every department of the house is essen- tial for the preservation of health, and that personal supervision of each nook and corner is absolutely essential to in- sure this result. Many a careful young mother who guards ber little ones with the most jealous care, and who oversees overy detail connected with their weli- being, says the New Y Tribune, would be greatly svrprised if she were told that if she would give less attention to the nursery and more to the cellar, for instance, her children would have fowor colds and sore throats. How many of our young Murra, Hill dames, we wonder, visit dail all the underground portions of thel houses, the dark closets, the passage- ways, and, aoove all, the cellar? And vet itis just those places that may affect the air of the whole house. The plumbing and drainage of the dwelling in the basement are of the greatest im- portance, and bad air in the cellar may cause unpleasant throat troubles during tho entire winter, It behooves every housekeeper, therefore, to see that this “Domdaniel’ Cavern” 'is kept. with as scrupulous care as the draw- ing room. In the first place, it should be freshly whitewashed every year: lime in itself is a disin- fectant, and it makes it much cleaner and_lighter. Any servant can white- wash with a suitable brush, and the whitewash itself is easily made in the following way: Put two quarts of un- slaked lime in an old tub: pour a tea- kettle full of boiling water on it and clap a cover immediately over the tub. When cold add enough water to make it of the consistency of milk, a_ little blueing and a handful of salt and beat it well. The windows in the cellar should be washed frequently, and on_ every fine sunshiny day let them stand open an hour or so. The floor, too, must be scerubbed two or three times during the winter, and if-the cement is broken it should bo filled in. A well-ventilated, cloan cellar is of the first importance, and yet it is generally the last thing considered. Fashion Notes. Open work stockings again.

In the year 1845, from the neighborhood of Kisa, in the southern part of Sweden number of emigrants lett for the new world. They landed at the seaport of Philadelphia, foliowed the canal until the Ohio river was reached, when they embarked on a steamer down theriver toits confluence with tho Mississippi, and then up the Father of Waters until Keokuk, Ia., was reacned, From this point the pioneers continued their Journey west until they made a settlement along the banks of the Skunk river, in Jef- ferson county, and they christened it “New Sweden.” Several of these early pioncers and their descendants are to be found in Nebraska, principally in and around Stromsburg.
