WOMAN’S PROQRE8S EDUCATIONALLY AND PROFESSIONALLY# In a very recently publlahed article by Walter Thornton, the progresa of woman of late year* la very Interest' Ingly treated. Mr. Thornton aaya. In part: The nineteenth century was a cen tury of emancipation—of the governed by the spread of the franchise and popular education; of the alave by proclamation; of the worker by Intel ligent co-o|ieratlon; and last, but per haps moat Important, of woman by a peaceful revolution of opinion nAd practice. Woman's "right*" were, to lie sure, latest to be appreciated; wom en had to wait for the negro, and have not yet been given so much aa he re ceived. ’ Hut their emancipation la now In full progress, and haa reached In this ‘ ‘ eg* ' country the satisfactory Magi where •very one takes It for granted that a irother, should have a chance to earn her living In any profession or busi ness or trade In which she la compe tent, and should be a partner of equal right In the marriage relation. This change has been literally aa sudden as the diffusion of the franchise or the abolition ot slavery. Two generations ngo no provision was made for the education of women In more thnn the rudiments; business life, apart from selling candy to chil dren and bonnets to voung women, was closed to them; the professional wom an waa unheard ot and undreamed ot. our business colleges are now about equally attended by young women and men. In our medical schools are near ly 1,600 women students, and thla last commencement was the occasion of the graduation ot some hundred each of women pharmacologists, dentists, law yers and clergymen. Finally, within a generation women have created a new profession, and that one of the noblest and most useful. For this year some eight thousand trained nurses will be graduated Into a truly professional life, and over nine-tenths ot them wilt be women. The higher education means fitness for the learned professions; and In a rational world fltness means employ ment. Women are capable of doing useful and noble work In every pro fission, such work as the world needs. The world will call upon women for more and more of such work every year. What Is true of the professions Is equally true of business and Indus trial life. It Is doubtful If at the end of twenty yeara there will be a single oc- ttlo " ■ cupatlon In which women will not to tome extent share. There Is nothing necessarily objec tionable In this widening of the sphere of woman's activity and Increase In her freedom to make or mar her own ca reer. The objections which are com monly made are based on mere per sonal prejudice or on misconceptions of fact. The most frequent la the assertion that the womanliness or fem ininity of women suffers from the con tact with and absorption In the life of business. Industrial or professional If this means that timidity, deceit, dependence and Inefficiency are dta- couraged in favor of energy, frank- ueaa and self-direction. It Is true: but It I* no objection aave In the minds of those who persist In thinking of worn-' cn a* men’s pet animals. If femininity means the so-called female charm, the subtle qualities which appeal to man as man, the coquetry, mystery and challenge of woman as the object of Instinctive pursuit, the charge ts again In a measure true; but once more this Is no objection. Women should be more to the world than tit object* to attract men; for the same reason that men should be more than lit object* to attract women. No one need fear that women will cease to be alluring enough. If womanliness means the steadlneat of affection, the loyalty nnd sacrifice which are the proper fruits of motherhood, and If a llfe^ .. . .... In the world of affairs mean* a life without marriage and children, the ob jection would be sound; but It must not be taken for granted that opening the door to professional and business life closes the door to marriage. It is alwaya risky to prophesy con cerning human affairs, but there Is ev ery reason to believe that the move ment of women toward business and professional life will Increase, and In crease with exceeding rapidity. The reason for believing In this rapid In crease In the Immediate future I* th* ltd Increase which we know has ;cn place In the immediate past. It Is a sober prophecy to make that long before the high school graduates FAIR GIRL IS MASCO7 OF ‘FIGHTING BOB'S'FLEE! of thla year die they will see twenty times as many women In medicine, In the ministry and In law as there are now; that they will throughout the country And women tn the pulpits, women as editors, women at tho head of hanks, women architects, women aa engineers working on the ".Straits of Panama” or the tunnel under the Ber ing sea. The fact ts that the education of women Is steadily Increasing! and that educated women are bound to till the professions. Hands Made Beautiful.

For 8tarlng Brows. In the event of the brows being star Ing and coarse, si bit of mucilage or bandoline applied at night after smoothing them Into shape will prove effectual. Quite a bit of difference In the brows can be accomplished by ac centuating the upper line by rubbing the hairs up from the bottom, or vice versa. If a woman has very thin eyelashes their color can be accentuated by a dya composed of: Gum arable, 1 dram; India Ink, 1-3 dram: rosewater, 4 ounces. Powder this Ink and gum and tritu rate small quantities of the powder with the rosewater until you get a uni form black liquid In a powder, and then add the remainder of the rosewater to It. It should be applied with a very thin camel’s hair brush. To Increase their growth a bit kerosene rubbed In carefully wilt in crease their growth, while a pomade composed of one ounce of red vaseline, one-sixteenth of an ounce of tincture ot cantharldes, eight drops ot oil of lav ender, and the same of oil of rosemary will be effectual. It should be mixed throughout and applied to the eyebrows with a tin: toothbrush once a day until the growtl Is sufficiently stimulated, then lese of ten. Clipping the ends of the lashes Is said to accelerate their growth. For the Plain Girl. H jolly. OW woman doee long for beau tyl It Is no use telling her that, better to be clever, or wise, or She will listen gravely to your arguments, but don’t think for a mo ment that she Is convinced. - With all her soul, she wants to be pretty, and nothing will change her views on the subject. From her babyhood to the grave she knows the power op beauty. The plain little girl hears her pretty companion's eyes and curlk praised. Her own way* thay be Just as cun ning and her little heart Just as loving, to her. The poor baby learns very soon that she must forego a good deal of admiration and attention. At school the little boys flock around the pretty girl. She may be a non entity, but she never lacka for mascu line attendants. The sooner the plain girl learns that ■he must "make good” for her plain ness, the better It will be for her. It le no use crying over split mttk, so she must not sit In a corner and mope over her lack of attraction. Is generally unselflsh and un spoiled, so she has those two excellent quajltes to start with. The pretty girl Is often very self- conscious, and that Is not at all pleasing quality. The plain girl Is not afflicted with self-consciousness, because she Is not always thinking that people ore look ing er longing to be pretty should lead her to mnkc the most of such charms as she possesses. She cart keep her eyes bright and her complexion good by living In a sensible, wholesome way. She can be exquisitely neat In ap pearance, and dress as becomingly as possible. It she studies and talks about the In- tereste of others, sue will never lack for friend*. The pretty girl, of course, will al waya be aought after, but unless she makes herself agreeable the attention will be hut fleeting. to charm will never win the least miration. If you arc plain, don’t fret over It. Fretting will only make you plainer by drawing peevish lines on your face. Just make up your mind to be aa cheerful and agreeable as possible. Don't be constantly thinking, "Oh, dear. I’m so ugly It's no use my trying to look nice.” When you go to a dance, look as though you mean to enjoy yourself, and you won't lack for partners. One crumpled leaf doesn’t spoil the entire rose, and the fact that vour face ts plain must not spoil your life. There are Just aa many happily mar ried plain women as pretty. But you may be sure those women did not sit and bemoan their hard fate In being plain. They made themselves agreeable enough to attract the men, and so they not only won attention, but huebanda roll. five ceullgramiuv. of tann:iu Hr sppiyins |M night and monitor, rubbhu the bunds, the roughness will well Inti disappear.
