Olive Thorne Miller Tells How You May Accomplish It with Small Expenditure of Money—Camping Out in a Farm house Is a Good Way. (Copyright, 1891, by American Press Assocla- The important things—the indispensa bles—are: First, to leave home burdens at home and carry no worries to lie awake over; secondly, to select a com pany that will be as harmonious as possi ble; and thirdly, to go with mind made up to “put up” with other people's ways and not be annoyed by them. The party should expect to live plainly, and to give up their own whims. It is most successful when each mem ber has a hobby to fill her days with pleasure; one may be a botanist, another a sketcher or photographer, a third a student of insects or birds; one may be “devoted” to needlework—fancy or plain —and another to books. Each one should provide ample material for her individual idiosyncrasy and bo prepared to show the broadest toleration for all the others, and health and happiness will be the sure result. I have seen this plan carried out, even to the extent of doing all their own cook ing, by a party of young girls during their school vacation. They were New England village girls accustomed to help themselves, and they took a farmhouse with nothing but an old cooking stove in it, half a mile from a neighbor. With almost no baggage they made the houso habitable, and they had “glorious times” for two weeks. One of the valuable results of this sort of an outing is the forbearance it culti vates in us. It is natural, from the soli tary lives we have led—each one mistress within her own four walls—that we should be somewhat intolerant of other people’s ways. We are apt to be per fectly sure that our way is the very best, and to be surprised that others do not see it in the same way. Anything we can do, my sisters, to uproot this poison ous weed in our hearts, to teach us a wide liberality and tolerance, and to show us the infinitesimal unimportance of a thousand and one little points we have been wont to consider of moment, is of the greatest possible advantage to us, and is the lesson we need above all. The reward is great, for the conquer ing of this lingering narrowness opens to us a new world of happiness of which we never dreamed. O live T iiorne M iller . HERE is no doubt that one of the best results of the changed conditions in ' women’s lives is I the way it opens for the rest that everybody in our rushing and hur rying life must have. A mother need no longer drag her burden of cares and re sponsibilities like a trail after her when a change of scene becomes imperative to her mental and physical health, for the importance of a rest from care is coming to be recognized. Moreover, ways of pleasant and profitable outings are more and more opening to her. Our brothers have long found it con ducive to their health and happiness to join a party of fishermen or hunters or travelers, and spend a few days or weeks in the mountains or elsewhere. We are beginning at last to take the hint, and to find that a week away from our wor ries is worth six weeks with them as a restorative. X do not say, of course, that all mothers of families would find this practicable, but hundreds could carry it out perfectly well if they only under stand how to manage it. When a daughter is old enough to take the helm of the domestic ship, or a friend, or even a trustworthy servant is in charge, the weary mistress if she will Girlhood of Mrs. Frank Leslie. unite with two or more other woman, Mrs. Frank Leslie is an example of will find the world before her from which what results rigid training in youth can to choose. If they have plenty of money bring. Bom in New Orleans, of French they may go abroad and travel whither Huguenot parents, she was not allowed to soever they will. Two or three can go grow up in the indolent way so common almost anywhere since it has been in that ease loving country. Her father thoroughly learned in the traveled coun was so strict a disciplinarian that he tries of Europe that an American really deprived her of tho right to be a woman, while perfectly self respecting child, and she never even had a doll nor and exacting respect of others, can be a companion of her own age. As soon as and is independent of certain conven she could talk he began her education,and tionalities. I know of two women of at four years of age she read a little Bible similar tastes, one a widow the other through, for which he gave her a locket which she has yet. Ho taught hei three languages simultaneously, and at seven years old he put her into a Latin gram mar. She was tho youngest child, with an interval between herself and ths next older of ten years, and so she was a most lonely child, and her father realiz ing that she was going to be all that she has since become, and dowered with the often fatal gift of beauty, wished to fortify her at all points. She never went to school, and her father in his anxiety taxed her so severely that there was ab solutely no sunshine in her life. Her mother pitied her baby so, who was made such a slave to books, that she never put a needle into her hand until CAMPING OCT. single, who this very year have gone to she was twelve years old. Before she was six she was told that a Europe for an extensive tour, and it is safe to say that they will “have so good lady might smile but never laugh aud ibly, and to this day she has letters from times as never was. ” If a trip in our own country is pre her father wherein he carefully tells her ferred it is needless to say that a woman how she must comport herself and enter may go from Maine to Mexico and meet tain her guests at a birthday party, and with invariable civility and good treat to these careful instructions and severe ment. Should it be not travel but rest drilling is due that quiet force that that is desired, two or three can take carries her through so many difficult board in a quiet place together, but for places. And her education was one a pure good time, that will rub out the which made of her a true gentlewoman, wrinkles of care and worry and bring who never says a careless or impure back youth into the heart, camping out word, and who holds herself so well in hand that she never retaliates upon is the best. A woman's camping out is as different those who despitefully use her, though from her brother’s as a woman’s club is she could do it with a terrible effect if from his club. The easiest way of do she so chose. At twelve years she had begun tho ing it is to hire a furnished summer cot tage, and take meals at a hotel or farm study of three languages, algetra, geom house in the neighborhood. I have etry and trigonometry, and was even put known half a dozen young women to do to studying civil engineering. In those days her father always prom this with great success, have plenty of fun and a delightful summer by the ised her a career, and told her that it could only come through a thorough ed sea without heavy expense. It some of the party can afford time ucation, and she often used to talk of her or money for one week or one month career long before she understood or only, and the cottage must be hired for could even utter the word plainly. The war broke out, and the young girl three, as usual, this may be easily ar ranged by a succession of persons.

In New York has been established in the last year or two something for which there is room in all the largest cities of tho Union. An enterprising, accom plished woman, Mrs. Annie C. Hardy, has founded a Ladies’ Guide and Vis itors’ bureau in the metropolis. Wom en who aro strangers in New York can arrive in the city any time of night or day, and if notice has been previously sent to the bureau a messenger there from will meet the stranger at the sta tion and conduct her to the woman’s ho tel which is connected with the bureau, or anywhere else she wishes. For a moderate charge typewriters are found, expert women guides and interpreters are sent out shopping and sight seeing with those who need them, escorts and chaperons to theaters and other places of amusement are furnished, and many other things are done for women who are unfamiliar with New York or for busy women who wish to accomplish the most in the least time. The bureau also keeps a list of select boarding houses and hotels, and directs strangers to them. It is pleasant to record that this enterprise, established by a woman for women, is meeting with success. Nothing more amusing has been laid before the public in a long time than the appeal of a number of self styled “Wom en Remonstrants” agajnst having wom an suffrage put upon them. They depre cate the going out of women to tho wage earning field, declaring in so many words that women must in tho indus tries “always compete with men and al ways bo beaten.” It is true that in their peculiar line no man can compare with the women whose work it is to detect counterfeit money in the departments at Washington. It is also true that women do the heaviest and most respon sible figtiring in the bureaus of statistics in Sweden and Norway, and that the Norwegian minister of finance employs only women mathematicians. It is also true that a woman, Cynthia Westover, secretary in the street commissioner’s office in New York city, is the mathe matician and statistician for a depart ment that employs 2,000 laborers, and that she has so organized the office work that it never ran 60 smoothly as it does now. But facts are nothing to these persons who assert out of their own heads that women must always be beaten in competition with men in the industrial walks. In truth, the solicitude of these mysterious and sly “remon strants” about breaking up of home and the cruelty of forcing weak women to compete with strong and godlike men is something touching. But now let me tell you the funny part. It is beginning to leak out slowly and delightfully that it is men themselves and nobody else who are behind this movement of re monstrance against women. It is they who have so wrought on the sympathies of the women nearest them as to induce these ladies to stand as a shield between their masculine timidity and the public and remonstrato against woman suf frage. It is men themselves who are be hind this antiwoman movement, there fore, men who fear the competition of women, undoubtedly with good reason too. So let us pity these poor little men, even while we laugh at the huge joke of it. Sly Joey B’s! “A Woman” writes this: “In offices and shops, wherever the daughter of Eve wants to serve the son of Adam, she ap peals to his chivalry rather than to her own capability.’’ Frankly, I don’t be lieve it. At the present moment the Salvation Army has no less than 9 ,.349 regular of ficers, 13,000 volunteer officers, 30 training homes, with 400 cadets, and 2,864 corps scattered over 32 different countries. In England alone it has 1,377 corps, and lias held some 1G0,000 open air meetings. This represents a part of its religious work. Be sides this it has in social work 30 rescue home, 5 shelters, 3 food depots and many other agencies for good. It began in the labors of a single friendless Dissenting minister, without nafne, without fame, without rank, without influence, without eloquence; a man poor and penniless, in weak health, burdened with delicate chil dren and disowned by his own connection; it now numbers multitudes of earnest evangelists. It began in an East End rookery, and in less than twenty years it has gone “from New Zealand right round to San Fran cisco, and from Cape Town to Nordkop- ing.” It h.i> shelters, refuges, peniten tiaries, food depots, sisterhoods and broth erhoods already established in the slums. It has elevated thousands of degraded lives. It has given hope and help to myriads of hopeless and helpless outcasts. It has proposed a scheme which, in spite of square miles of damp blanket and oceans of cold water, has received the sympathy of some of the best and highest men both in church and state. I think that even the bitterest, the most unjust, the most cyni cal, and the most finical of the laymen and clerics who have written to traduce and execrate it might wish to God that in the WOMAN’S WORLD IN PARAGRAPHS. life work of any one of them they had done one-thousandth fraction of good compar able in any one visible direction to that Women Who Get Money from Their Hus which has been wrought by “General” bands Under False Pretenses.

The girls arc scared, and they won’t eat candy any more, because last week a New Jersey young woman, on a visit to Wash ington, received a box of candy from her “beau” as she was leaving the national capital to nibble on daintily as she hustled homeward. She got home before the box was emptied, and then she hit it again.

Fate of the “Ark of the Covenant.’* The Work of the Salvation Army. IS IT THE ODDS AND ENDS. It will probably never be known what became of the ark of tho covenant at the time of the destruction and plunder of the temple. Even conjectures concerning it are altogether useless. Some say that it was taken away and destroyed by Nebu chadnezzar. The Jews believe that it was miraculously concealed from the spoilers, and account it among the hidden things which the Messiah is to reveal. It is ad mitted, however, from an examination of all Jewish writers, that the old ark was never in the second temple, and there is no evidence on record to show that a new one was made. It is generally understood that the ab sence of the ark was one of the important particulars in which the second temple was regarded as inferior to that of Solo mon. Josephus states that “the most holy place” was vacant in the second temple certain rabbinical writers assert that its place was simply marked by a stone. The fact that Ezra, Nehemiah and the Macca bees frequently mention the other sacred utensils, but never refer to the ark, seems to be an acknowledgment on their part that they knew nothing of the great me morial of the covenant.—St. Louis Repub lic. LOST SWIFT MINE? Judge J. 5V. Perry, the well known Owen county politician, tells me the fol lowing story of a wonderful cave that has been found on his land in Morgan county. It has only been explored a short distance, but to judge from the indications it must be miles in extent. The cave was found in a manner worth relating. A party of fox hunters were pursuing a quarry which their hounds had sprung when they sud denly came upon a high ledge. At the mo ment of arrriving at this point the baying of the hounds was distinctly audible, the hunters not far behind. Suddenly the mu sic of the dogs ceased. It did not die away by degrees, but stopped suddenly, as if each loud piouthed animal had been struck by soqie invisible force and forever quieted. The hunters were at a loss to account for this phenome non. While wondering what became of the dogs a belated hound that had been unable to keep up with the pack came up, and, running below the ledge, set up a howl of disappointment, and the hunters climbed down to where the dog had stopped, only to see him disappear into the side of the mountain through a large, ir regular opening. Procuring torches of pine knots, the hunters hastily followed the dog. They had not gone more than 100 feet until they entered a large chamber with vaulted dome. Every inch of space on the walls and roof was covered with minute crystals that sparkled like millions of diamonds when the light of the torches flashed upon them. The men hurried on, however, trying to overtake their dogs, that they could now hear faintly baying within the bowls of the earth. After going about two miles through beautiful rooms and lofty arches and failing to come upon the hounds, the weary hunters had to retrace their steps, owing to their hastily improvised torches being nearly burned out. The dogs camo home the next day. A few days after its discovery Judge Perry visited the cave and explored it a short distance. He describes it as one of the most wonderful caves he ever saw. In one of the rooms there is a stone wall, 70 yards long, 4 feet high and 4 feet thick. It is built of limestone rock of a kind not found in the cave nor anywhere near it. The judge is at a loss to account for the presence of this wall, especially as it is cemented together with a cement as strong as the rock itself. Many peoplo who have seen the cave and the artificial wall are inclined to think this is the famous Swift cave, where that worthy mined and coined silver a hundred years ago. If this should prove correct the judge will be a millionaire, as Swift’s cave was known to be one of the richest silver mines ever opened.—Cor. Louisville Commercial. Vendettas in the Philippines.

This was all they expected to print at all, for they did not detect the ele ments of popularity in it. What was their surprise, then, to receive orders amount ing to 2,000 copies on the day of publica tion! This warned them to begin printing a 14fge supply, but the orders poured in so fSBt that for three weeks they were many thousand copies behind the demand. The orders received on a single day amounted once to 14,000 copies and the total sales of the book reached in the end 150,000 copies. “That Wife of Mine,” published not long after, did not reach the same figure, but the sale amounted to 70,COO copies, 60,000 of which were ordered in advance. Her other books have none of them obtained the same success, though they have all been widely read. But Miss Denison’s pen has brought her gold, and her publishers as will.—Ed ward W.

If one plebeian is killed by another the matter is settled in a simple manner by killing tho murderer or some one of his family who is likewise a plebe ian. But if a prominent man or noble is killed by a plebeian vengeance on the mur derer, a mere plebeian, is not enough; the victim of the sin offering must be an equivalent In rank. Another nobleman must fall for the mur dered noble, for their doctrine is, What kind of an equivalent is it to kill some one who is no better than a dog? Hence the family of the slain noble looks around to seo if it cannot find a relative of the mur derer to wreak vengeance upon who is also a noble, while the murderer himself is ig nored. If no noble can be found among his relatives the family of the murdered man wait patiently till some one of them is received into the noble’s caste; then the vendetta is prosecuted, although many Soon Lots will be scarce and Command a Higher Price. years may have elapsed.
