Tlio wuning of tho ninotocnth century

fully establishing a profession for wom
en which still rotains tho flavor of nov

With truly fominino instinct for dis
cerning tho golden opportunity Miss E.
V. Cornolius has started in to do tho

fashionablo families of tho city. Early

Giving tho order marks tho extent of

docs tho rest
Professional marketing is a now field
in tho rango of occupations for women,
but ono in which a successful harvest
awaits tho right gleaner. Delicatessen
timo familiarized themselves with all
fashionablo quarters of tho city. Every
year mo proiessionai cook in taco trim
med cap and apron makes her bow upon
tho lecturo platform. Sho is always Euro
of a largo audience. Cooking classes aro
multiplying both under private auspices
and in tho publio schools, and tho band
of professional caterers and interior
decorators is steadily increasing. Tho
business of tho littlo market woman is
something of a combination of all of
these, iliss Cornelius has gono into this
new profession for women both as
scienco and an art. Tho requirements
and possibilities of tho work havo been
taken into consideration fionv-tho pur
chase of a juicy tenderloin at tho stall
of tho busy market to tho composition
of a mean for tho day and tho initia
tion of tho household Abigail into ar
tistio and pretty ways of serving" food
and decorating tho table.
There is no poctio sentimentality
about tho littlo market: woman. Her
profession is a matter of bread and
meat, of character aand self respect to
her. Whatovcr success shu has com
manded is another proof of tho fact that
adverse circumstances aro overcome by
perscveranco and persistent work. To
quoto her own words, "Sinco I was 14

lllggest of Women' Colleges.
Thero is an endowment fund in tho
hands of tho trustees in Boston for tho
establishment of nno of tho largest of
freo f cranio colleges. It is tho bequest
of John Simmons, ono of Boston's most
successful merchants, who died in 1S70.
Tho original Simmons bequest con
sisted of this property: To his daughter
Marion ho gavo tho granito front storo
at tho corner of Franklin and Arch
streets, tho granito front storo on Water
and Dovonshiro streets and tho land
upon which it sat, and tho old Simmons
mansion on Trcmont street and tho land
belonging to it At tho deceaso of Mar
ion tho estate, together with tho accu
mulations, was to bo given in trust to
tho Simmons Feinalo college. To his
daughter Alvina was given tho granito
front storo situated at tho corner
Franklin and Hawley streets and tho
land belonging to it, tho wholo to bo
held in trust during tho daughter's life,
and at her death tho estates, cxclusivo
of the accumulations thereon, were to
bo given to tho college. In addition
thcro was left ?30,000 in money for tho
pnrposo of building a block as a nucleus
for tho collego fund, tho incomo . to bo
held in trust.
Tho object of founding tho Simmons
Fcmalo collego was for tho parposo of
teaching medicine, music, drawing, do
signing, telegraphy and other branches
of nrt, scienco and industry.
Tho Simmons collego might today bo
a splendid reality but for tho big firo of
1872. All tho fino business blocks given
by tho Simmons bequest wero left m
ruins. Tho mutual firo companies, far
from being ablo to pay tho insurance on
tho Simmons blocks, assessed tho trus
tees of tho collego fund
Sinco 1S72 tho trustees havo been
using tho incomo from theso buildings to
pay up tho mortgago indebtedness on
them. Tho present trustees H. G.
Nichols andJoscph Sawyer aro paying
off tho mortgages on the various estates
as fast as tho incomo from tho cstatea
will allow.
Tho trustees say that at tho present
rato of incomo tho mortgago indebted
ness will bo Cleared up in a few years.

Women Stenographers.
Two years ago somo of tho women
stenographers and typewriters of this
city formed an association. Thoy were
13 then. Thoy aro 100 now. They aro
known as tho National Association of
Women Stenographers ana aro incor
porated. Within a few weeks tho ar
rangements and legal forms of a sick
benefit havo been comploted, so that
women who aro alono in tho world may
count in caso of sickness upon three
months' financial support and a woman
ly sympathy extending far beyond that
limitation. Meetings aro held every
thrco months, and addresses havo been
mado by Mrs. Charles Henrotin and
Mrs. Henry Shepard. It is their inten
tion to havo lectures from timo to time
from women who can inspiro them to
broad and noblo work. They havo now
begun somo threescore of them tho
study of parliamentary law at Central
Music hall, an earnest that tho associa
tion is going to transact its business
with vigor and legality.
Miss M. E. Orr, who holds tho gold
medal for tho championship of tho world
for speed in typewriting, is an honorary
member of tho association. Their presi
dent is Miss Nettio McLaughlin, a Chi
cago girl of considerable literary ability
and marked cxecntivo force. She, with
Miss Harriett Shinn, will go as dele
gate to tho national council of women
to bo held in Washington. This is tho
only body of business women in tho
country that belongs to the national
counciL Miss bhinn will read a paper
to open tho discussion on "Woman as a
Factor In tho Modern Business World."
Miss Shinn was tho first president of the
association and has a fino mind and
broad sympathies. Sho is the daughter
of a Methodist minister and is doing a
noble, womanly work outsido tho exac
tions of her profession. Chicago Rec

Woman's Progress In 1894.
In concluding an interesting article
on tho progress of woman in' various
parts of tho world in 1894 Mrs. Warner
Snoad, president of tho International
Woman's union, says:
"Thus it will no seen that progress
has been literally all along tho lino in
different countries and in most diverse
subjects. Success, moreover, has come
in competition, so that no allowance
need bo mado on tho scoro of sex. These
distinctions, gained without favor, place
tho position of woman on an altogether
impregnablo basis. No longer can it be
said that women aro inferior to men in
brain power. Theorists of tho typo of
Dr. Crichton Brown may prove to demon
stration that women aru unfit for severe
mental labor, but they cannot explain
away tho facts which directly contro
vert snch a view. Yet in spito of this
thcro is no social earthquake tho old,
old story is as sweet as ever, homes are
as well cared for, and baby worship has
not ceased. God fcrbid it should be
otherwise! Even the jealously guarded
women of tho east are feeling tho reflex
of western thought Lady doctors are
admitted in Turkey. Miss Yoseph will
soon practico in Persia, Miss Eddy in
Syria and Dr. Mary Sugana in Japan.
In India many native ladies aro study
inc physic, there is a tiny ripple of
progress on tho dead sea of Zenana life,
and tho maharajah of Mysore has for
bidden infant marriages. Everywhere
tho world moves, and while recording
tho triumphs of our own sex wo grate
fully remember tho chivalrous men
who stand by us alike through praise
and blame."
She Was Xot a Club Woman.
Tho attitudo assumed by somo non
club women toward tho woman's club
question, as a whole, is amusingly shown
in a littlo incident related by Helen ii.
Winslow in tho Boston Transcript:
"When tho North Shoro club of Lynn
gavo a reception tho other day, says
she, "thoy sent carriages to meet all
visitors at tho trains. On tho arrival of
tho 3:30 train from Boston tho half
dozen ladies who had been delayed till
then wero met by a cordial littlo woman
with the inquiry, 'Aro you for the
North Shoro club?' and when wo replied
in tho affirmative she asked us to come
with her to tho carriage in waiting.
Naturally we felt that every possible
courtesy was being shown us and were
eminently satisfied with our lot and os
pecially tho cordial littlo lady's part in
it Finally, just as wo wero going off to
our carriages, sho espied another woman
who was evidently waiting for some
thing. She was a well dressed, middle
aged woman and really looked as if she
might bo eligiblo for our party. (I beg
her pardon.) And so our cordial little
hostess stepped up and put to her the
question, Aro yon for tho North Shore
club?' But now tho stranger straightened
herself up, and tho nnutterablo scorn
sho looked! Sho did not deign to answer
by any words, but that look plainly
said, 'I should hopo not!' And she gazed
at us as if wo wero a lot of freaks the
liko of which sho had never come across
before And we? Oh, we fled to our car
riages squelched."
