WON'T PAY DUTY CALLS.
ftcTolt of KnfcllHli Women la India
AuuliiHt n Form of Social llondnire.
The English women living in India
put a sensible nelienie into execution
recently. They revolted ngainst the
social bondage of "duty culls" and
organized an anti-calling union. Sev
eral hundred women joined and
pledged 'themselves to abide by the
mil's, which are very simple.
Iusteud of paying wills in person
cards are sent and cults ore returned
by post. A personal cull is allowable
only when a special compliment is in
tended. At home days are held by the
members of the union when conven
ient, notices of these being printed in
the papers several days beforehand.
The fact that men are excluded from
tlH'se privileges has caused no end of
nmuHCinent among the women and no
less talk among the lords of creution,
particularly the crusty bachelors of
society, who declare that culling did
keep some women quiet; they go so far
tia to make wagers on whaft mischief
their women friends will be up to now
that there is no necessity for them to
pay duty calls.
There is no union of this kind in this
city, but the women members of the
Barnard club long ago gave up culling
for the mere name of the thing. They
agreed 1hat their club should bei a
kind of a social clearing houne, and the
plan has worked admirably. An in
formal reception Is held in the beautl:
ful club rooms every Saturday after
noon, and a little chat with one's
friends there relieves everybody of all
calling obligations. This even extends
to party culls among most of the mem
bers. One of the most prominent
women in the club says that the plan
not only saves the club members a
great deal of valuable time, which can
be put to more profitable use, but
strengthens the moral character as
well, since nothing weaken itao much
as obligatory duty calling. The mem

' A irootl storv of James G. Blaine is
told by a writer in the St. Louis Globi
Democrat. The incident related was
a magnanimous and clever act of the
Maine statesman, when, as speaker of
the house, he got through a resolution
appropriating $12,000 to the needy wid
owed daughter of llresident Zachary
Taylor. This lady got as far as Wash
ington on her way to Paris to Bee a
sick daughter, and, being destitute of
mouey, appealed to her only friend at
the capital, Oen. Sherman. His purse
wns always open to the distressed, but
be had no funds at all adequate to re
lieve her necessities. In this emer
gency he thought of Blaine.. The man
from Maine entered Into the spirit of
the occasion as soon as he heard Oen.
Sherman's statement, lie called an
other to the chair, made a five-minutes'
speech that fairly electrified the house,
which passed the resolution which
ltlaiue had penned only a moment be
fore. He took the resolution? person
to the senate, where it was alsirnVAnedi
ately passed, had the president to sign
it the next day, and on the following
day the beneficiary got the money. Gen.
Sherman always insisted that Blaine
would have made the grandest actor
that ever lived, and in adapting his
career to politics, he robbed the stage
of a born star.

Mr. Frank II. Spearman writes in St.
Nicholas of the freaks of the Missouri
river, his article bciug entitled "A Shift
ing Boundary." Mr. Spearman says:
You must know that the real business
of the Missouri is to carry the moun
tain waters east and south into the
Gulf of Mexico. But In bounding from
side to side of its valley through the
tedious centuries, it bus twisted and
turned so tunny times that uo doubt its
head is contused. Carrying tbe quan
tity of nnid it docs, OU would hardly J take a substitute aid to be " jut as good."
I expect it to be clear-headed. There is I for pr- Merce's Common Sfnse

taken in time. The story of
