Women as Designers The Evolution of the
Daughters The Long Gown Age The
Girl Journalist Stylish Women Pulled
the Nail Miss Kepplier.
The best and happiest wife in this and
the next generation is and will be the s If
supporting woman. It is so evident that
argument and proofs seem superfluous.
From a severely praetieal standpoint, a
woman who has made her own living
knows the value of money, lias had ex
perience in making it go as far as possible,
has sown all the wild oats of small extrav
agances and subsequent scrimping that
make trouble in many new homes. A dol
lar to her represents so many hours' work,
jiot a few coaxing words addressed to pa
pa. She knows what kind of home it is
pleasant to come to after a tiring day's
work and what sort of breakfast is the
best foundation for eight hours' toil.
She has been used for so long to look aft
er herself that it is almost heaven to have
some one ask if she had her rubbers on
this morning, and the trifling attention
will be repaid by a devotion to socks and
buttons which the masculine mind will
enjoy while it may not entirely under
btand. No matter how plucky and successful
she has been, the self supporting woman
has been for years very tired, mentally and
physically, with tlie weight of responsibil
ity she has carried. If one week has been
brought to a close sxiccessfully, in compar
ative comfort and with no debt incurred,
she can only draw a very short breath be
fore the next one commences. It may bo
very selfish, but isn't it delicious to feel
that some one else, whose shoulders are
stronger, has taken this wearing burden
from j-ou and carries it easily too? What
can be more delightful, after years of rush
ing down town immediately after break
fast or shutting oneself up in a study or
office early in tlie morning, than to draw
a comfortable, happy breath at the table
and then set about domestic duties? The
sheltered feeling is indescribable and ono
that cannot be appreciated by any woman
who has not fought her own battles.
Men as a general thing are good natur
ed and pleasant enough to women whom
they meet in a business way, but however
kind they may be the woman never can
feel that she is at her best outside of her
home. Do you think a self reliant, plucky
breadwinner, who is, after all, the more a
woman for all her brave march abreast
with men, is going to toss her head and
given utterance to the hackneyed state
ment about not giving up her liberty for
the best man living, and is there anything
particularly desirable in the liberty which
consists in working day after day for food
and clothes and a place to sleep, barely
gained by wages which will be lost the
moment some one else is willing to do the
same work for less money? This applies
to every wage earning woman, from the
girl who spends her weary days behind a
counter to the successful brain worker,
who is more envied becauso less under
stood than any of the women who eat their
own bread. Jessie M. Burogyne in Don
ahue's Magazine.
Women as Designers.
The cheap production of machine mado
ornamentations is doubtless thwarting to
truly artistic and original design, but tlie
demand for new patterns and new designs
is overwhelming, and manufacturers, be
ing for the most part practical business
men and not conscientious artists, natural
ly seek to meet the denwmd by every sea
son producing some novelty in the decora
tions of their goods. Many manufacturers
keep their own designers on the premises.
Yet many of the best makers are not
averse to buying designs from otttsiders,
as they obtain thereby greater novelty and
change. Herein comes the opportunity for
wrork by trained women designers. I Jut
woman must first bo schooled as to tho
needs of manufacturers. She must learn
the business side of her art.
In these days of overcompetition any
scheme that promises even a possibility of
helping women to help themselves should
arouse interest and attention. The grow
ing desire among the rising generation of
drafters to earn their own living does not,
I think, proceed from a desire to be selfish
ly independent of men, but from the nat
ural and healthy wish to bo free and hon
est in their thoughts and actions and to
have some higher aim in life than the so
ciety girl's wearisome search for pleasure
and a husband. If all women in their
youth received a practical training in some
practical craft, so that if necessity demand
ed they might be able to earn ji living, they
would be saved from the fear of sordid
poverty and lie enabled to work out their
own destinies, and if Providence did not
see lit to provide them with a congenial
mate they would still be able tolind a fair
field for tho employment and rem u dera
tion of their talents. Hut even if woman
does marry it by no means follows that
she is provided for for the term of her nat
ural life. The vagaries of an inexorable
destiny in these days of speculative busi
ness and bank failures often leave a widow
and orphans dependent upon tlie unselfish
ness of their relations. It would bo inval
uable under such circumstances for a wom
an to have a working knowledge of Homo
art or craft, so that sho might be able to
earn a decent living for herself and her
children. Mrs. J. K. II. Cordon in Fort
nightly Review.

may not retain her dimples and rosy
cheeks "blooming with health," until she
finds a good husband. A little neglfct or
accident may bring about some one of
the many "female" diseases and "weak

health may be forever impaired, and
hopes and happiness be at an end. Thanks
