THE OREGON DAILY ' JOURNAL. PORTLAND. SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL' 13. IS07. T7" Tl .' mm LOMJJMMJ -ft Famous Women of the World To Discharge the Cook 9M, ' . s' l?r ' tTkWf. Olr ManV Mitchell T HIH famous end . well-beloved American woman .was born In the- little Island of Nantucket, .whore among 'other Quakers her mother and father had taken refuge after the Puritan expulsion of those of the Quaker faith. She was a Khy child.' but greatly devoted to her father, who was of a gentle and affeo t lunate dlsi position. There were several children In the family, and they learned all the household arts, as well as re ceiving thorough Instruction In the .. Usuul branches ofJlearnlng. Mr. Mitchell 'was a very devduTTnan ml an ardent student of astronomy, and from the time Maria waa a little girl she learned at bis side of -constellations and nebulae and computed with hlrn or bits and the relations of heavenly bod ies. In fact, astronomy was as much a ' part of the dally life of the home as the ordinary household tasks, and If any of the Mitchell children had been asked who was the greatest man In the woauy "HenschelL" f -x ' , One evening In the fall of the year the Mitchell bom was entertaining In vited guests, but Maria ran eut and climbed to the housetop, as was her cus tom; to take am observation, Soon she called her father and .told him that she thought that ahe saw comet. 8 he tried to keep him from communicating the news of the discovery to others until they had had an opportunity to study It further, but he was quite sure of the observation and sent the news to Pro fessor Bond of Cambridge. The tnaila did not leave the Island for two days, so the letter was lata In reaching him. - A medal of the value of SO ducats had been offered by Frederick VI, king of Denmark, to the first discoverer of a tetescoplo comet. Professor Bond sent the news of this discovery to Edward Everett, and by him It was communicat ed to the proper ' authorities. By this ' time the comet had been seen by other observers, but her precedence was proved and in due time Marie received her gold medal. This was the first of seven com ets detected by her. , In 1841 Miss Mitchell was elected to Fashion Paragraphs . From NEW YORK. April 11. Mauve, gray, plstach green and every differ ent shade of blue are prominent spring colors, ail being equally . popular, and In the spring the brilliant tones and -light tints are al ways welcome after the long winter month with furs and somber velvet and cloths. Some dark gray are to be worn, but these have been used to some 'extent during the winter, so that the Hunt shades will be a change. Mixture of two or more tones of the on color will b fasbionabla, as well as stripes, plaids and checks. Panama cloth ' is a good weight for spring and Is to be had In any tone desired.- It Is seen In plain walking suits, as well as in rather ela . borate coat . and skirt costumes' for afternoon.

Attempting to wash the hairs with alcohol and a soft camelnhalr brush, she dislodged them. After another hour's labor ahe had them again In place, when a sudden movement unsettled them again. Again she re paired the work and left It untrl the next day. when on testing It. she found that the hairs were entirely too coarse and that they were uneven. .She next set. aoout to procure spider lines, and re membered that In the corner of the Athenaeum library she had seen two co coons. These she attempted te unravel, and with the" fine hairs from a baby's head she set herself again to repair the transit.

On one occasion she deelded to go to see the great act ress Rachel, and she wonders whether, in her experience, she will be able to tell , good acting from bad.

The striped black and whit silk are many of them extremely attractive this season and are excellent for simple walking dresses, a well as for more elaborate" frock. The stripe may be all of even width - or else graduated from wid to narrow. - Then, of course, th blsck may be more prominent than the white, and vie versa.

The cuffs may also be made so as to be always worn with whit embroidered cuffs, and Just this, little touch , of white on a simple garment la most attractive. The belt may be a wide girdle or a narrow stitched kind, and it may be fastened by a buckle, or hooked over, which ever fashion is more ' becoming. - A handsome black and white, costume for afternoon 1 of great service al ways, and there are many black and whit robe In lac., silk and chiffon that are ao smart as to make every woman anxloua to possess at once Just such a gown. The black and whit lac trimmed i with Jet and satin or velvet ribbon ha been worn to no little extent during the past winter. : - But so hav th striped chiffon dresses, and they hav become no less popular for that reason, and are seen among the newest model for this spring. i . Lovely sheer voiles, both wool and silk, are shown with self-colored pin atiipes. or, indeed, stripes in a host of attractive forma.

EauJtroed able absence of anything commonplace h(a thought and expression, She wrote about this time, "If I have worked harder than-1 thought I could bear, how much better that la than not to have as much work as wanted to do. She dressed very simply and spent ss little as possible on herself, which was true also in later years. She took little Journey each year, had little pres ent! rosily for Jier friends btrthda and at Christmas and spent a little for books which ahe could not get at the Athenaeum (ahe was the librarian) and she did all this on a aalary which an ordinary school girl In these days would think " too meagerlosupptytier-'wlth dress alone. She took a Journey abroad where ahe met many people of distinction and where she accomplished Vorae work, for which she had been planning for years. A part fit the time she was traveling In company with Mr. and Mrs. Nathanlul Hawthorne. She writes of Mr. Haw. thorne In her diary, describing bis mod' est and retiring ways. On one occasion she told him of a friend who was very eager to meet Mr, Hawthorne and who admired him very much. - He replied, "Don't let her see me. ( Let her keep hor little light burning. He wee at this time writing - The Marble Faun. She visited Greenwich observatory and keen ly enjoyed Its privileges. On her nt turn she was presented with a fine tel escope by, the women of America as a token of their esteem. Eh was made an- L.L. D, by Hanover In 1153 and by Columbia In 1887; and also made a member of the American Association for the Advance of Science. The position which she held as pro fessor of astronomy at vassar brought her .Into contact with many young wo men who loved- her and whom ah loved. "My girls," ah used . to call them, affectionately. And fh girls would aay. as on wrote to her mother: "If only It were possible to tell you what Professor Mitchell does for , her girls. It means so much to come .into dally contact with such a woman.' This position she held Until a year oeror her death which occurred at Lynn, Massachusetts, In the year 1881, New York which, by th way. are much more used thl year than laat, are rormed simply by th weaving, but more often they are atln finished. On lovely chiffon voU of a oft gray with a pinkish cast has grouped latin stripes of three pin line In a slightly deeper ton of gray. A aoft castor-brown, covered with ..tin pin stripes In self tones, I especially prina;uK. . . . Th spring walking suits for misses' wr are particularly attractive thl year, and th backward season la keep ing a very large stock on view, msklng th choice far from a difficult one. The favored materials , are tweeds, ,shep herdr plaids, serges and vicunas, with Just a sprinkling of broadcloth. Black and white shepherds plaid makes the prettiest of practical Street or -school frock, and needs very little trlmmlnc. The skirt are Invariably plaited, th side or close box plaits belne- worn for a slender girl, her plump sister "choos ing th double box plaits some distance apart, orWth seven-gored with a box plait on each seam. , ' Th pony coat are built on somewhat looser line than those of laat spring, and th newest model only Just cover th waist line. These are finished with a rolling collar In a contrasting color or material, and close double breasted. The sleeves ar fairly full and and at three-quarter length In roll-back cuff. There Is a good deal of style to thl Uttl suit, if worn by th right flgnr. With all these designs there I no ne cessity for wearing a coat that Is unbe coming In order to be in fashion, for ail lengths and all atyles of coats will be worn - this spring. Th Norfolk I a generally becoming wrap, and this, too, I mad looser and. shorter, falling al most straight, giving th effeTt of th belt being . a superfluity. Tweed and corduroy are apprcprlat fabric for the Norfolk suits. Smart suits In reef er and box style ar developed from th cream and navy blue serge, and for wear hav few equal In th family of wooiens. -....1 For Children Dresses. " From Th Cirri. Wash dresses ran be mad early in the season, but care should be taken to allow for th rapid, growth of the child, so thst th drees shell not be too smsll when It Is needed. White dresses, laun dered, are alwaya the moat satisfactory; for, no matter how fust color are, th sun will fade them. , . It is almost Impossible, of course, to keep little children always dressed In while, not only because it increase the week' Washing; but because th child must wear,, part of th time, a dress that wa meant to play and romp -in. and that will not so quickly 'show th dirt. For thl turpoee. there Is nothing prettier than gingham or a seersucker. The Istter. Is especially - useful for a play dress; It comes in. both dark and light shades of blue, gray, and red, and the pretty gray, blues or watermelon pinka are very attractive. ' Any colored cotton goods should be shrunk before cutting Into garments. and th moat satisfactory way to shrink good I to squeese large towel out f clean, cold water, and lay them be tween the folds of th cloth so that all will be moistened. Keep th folds In their yard lengths and lay the goods smoothly on a flat surface to dry over night. In. the morning ' the material wlp - be ready to cut, ' without any wrinkles, and. positively guaranteed not to shrink. ' ; J" In the Kitchen, Potato Stuffing for Geese or Ducks.
