Tlie Modern Eve.
A man never appreciates a woman’s
s.rue value until he has married her.
He usually overestimates it before.
Eve’s most vulnerable point was her
susceptibility to flattery. Her daugh
ters have not made any improvement
in this particular.
When a woman gets so old that
praise no longer has its charms she
—but she never reaches that age.—

Seeing Europe Awheel.
Mrs. M. A. Frost, of Northampton,
Mass., is chaperoning a party of three
young ladies who will see how econo
mically they enn make a tour of Europe
on their bikes. Two of the young
ladies made a ten weeks’ bicycle tour
for $l9O about two summers ago. The
baggage of each member of the party
consists of two suits of light, woolen
underwear, two pairs of woolen stock
ings, a black equipoise, a divided skirt
of dark mohair, meeting long bicycle
the-knee,-and a few toilet arti
cles. The expenses have been calcu
lated thus: Bound trip ticket $78.50;
expenses per diem, $1.50 for sixty days.
Allowing for incidentals the trip can
be made for $175 apiece.
Queen Olga of Greece.
Queen Olga of Greece is at present
tlie most interesting woman in Europe,
as well as one of the most popular.
Particularly is she popular among the
women of Athens, among whom she
has an extensive acquaintance, for she
goes about freely, often unattended.
Simplicity is the keynote of her life,
and it is followed even in her dress,
except on state occasions. In appear
ance she is an ideal Queen —tall,blonde,
stately—and her manner is marked by
graceful dignity. Her favorite gem is
the pearl. She is a good scholar and
an excellent linguist. She takes a
great deal of interest in the arts, in
publio education and in charity. Her
passion is yachting, and she was until
recently an honorary admiral in the
Russian fleet, being a Russian Princess,
the daughter of the Grand-duke Con
stantine and niece of the late Czar.
However, she has returned her insignia
to St. Petersburg, saying that she
could not hold rank in a fleet that had
fired upon the Greeks, and by this act
has made herself more than ever the
idol of the Greek people.
Slid Huns an Elevator.
One of the sights of San Francisco
is the running of the elevator in the
Custom House. A stranger, upon en
tering it, is likely to fear that he is
confined there with a crazy person,
who is about to send the car out of the
roof. For the elevator boy is a woman;
and when, calmly and quietly, the
woman seizes the rope and begins to
tug, what other idea can a man have
except that his companion is a maniac,
toying with a dangerous plaything?
For whoever, outside of the Golden
Gate, ever heard of a woman elevator
boy? Come to think of it, there’s no
reason why such a person should not
exist, but then folks from out that
town never hupponed to hear of the
New Woman being in the business.
For fourteen years the Custom
House elevator has been tended by
women, and not an accident has hap
pened to the car or its occujiants in all
that time. Two or three of the atten
dants have been widows of soldiers or
else wives of veterans too feeble to
work themselves. The present in
cumbent, Mrs. Carolin Morse, is the
widow of a blue-jacket, and was ap
pointed under President Harrison’s
administration. She was put out at
the opening of Cleveland’s first term,
but San Francisco raised such a howl
that her old place was soon returned
to her. And there she sits eight hours
a day, confined in a coop, and working
honestly for her money, with which
she supports and educates her family.

Why Women Have the Blues.
“Why do so many women have mel
ancholia?” repeated the doctor, who
has a large practice among the “de
pressed” and “nervous” feminine pop
ulation. “Because they don’t care to
avoid it. Because they absolutely dis
regard the rules of mental and physi
cal well-being, Because they would
rather eat what they like and suffer
indigestion and the blues afterwards
than to eat what is good for them, hut
doesn’t tickle their palates. Because
they’d rather sit about on soft cush
ions than take a tramp six miles
through the open air. Because they
haven’t enough to occupy their minds
and their hands.”
Then the doctor paused to take
breath and began again somewhat
less aggressively.
“It is never the women who have
cause to feel blue,” he said, “who in
dulge iu blues. The women who have
shiftless husbands, hard-hearted land
lords, sick babies and all the usual
accompaniments of never
grew so depressed that they have to
be treated for it. They are too busy.
It’s the woman with an adoring fam
ily, social position and a comfortable
income, who doesn’t find life worth
living. It isn’t the servant girl who
gets up at six to kindle the fire and
who slaves all day who indulges in
melancholia, but the daughter of the
family who arises at eight, dawdles
over her breakfast, reads a little, prac
tices a little, shops a little, craves ex
citement with all her heart, and is
melancholic because she doesn’t have
it.
“There is no habit which grows
upon one so rapidly,” went on the
doctor. “It becomes a disease iu a
very short time. My own plan, when
ever I feel an attack coming on, is to
put on my walking boots and tramp
vigorously as far as I can, It is simp
ly impossible to exercise and feel blue
at the same time. Of course, a gen
eral care of the health is necessary
and work is the chief factor iu effect
ing a euro. Every woman who has a
tendency to melancholia should have
an occupation which, if it doesn’t en
tirely absorb her, will at least keep
busy. And she should give her mind
up to practical rather than theoretical
affairs. She should study how to put
up an extra shelf iu a cupboard, or
how to stop a squeaking door, or how
to make an overshoe that won’t come
off at the heel, rather than the teach
ings of the theosophical school or the
philosophy of Herbert Spencer. Ordi
narily good health, plenty of exercise,
plenty of work, and an interest in the
affairs of this world are the great pre
ventives and cures of melancholia.” —
London Doctor.
Women as Veterinarians.
This year a young woman will be
graduated from the Veterinary School
in Alfort, France. Germany and Rus
sia boast of women veterinarians, but
in the United States there is not one
who is entitled to write herself D. V.
S. Women have applied to the vari-
ous veterinary schools in the United
liiostjif them stating that they
wish to make a special study of the
diseases of cats and dogs. Some have
taken preparatory courses at the school
connected with Cornell University,
hut none have matriculated anywhere
with the intention of entering the pro
fession with the exception of Miss
Jenne Revert, who attended the New
York Veterinary College during two
sessions.
Miss Revert is the owner of Robin
dale Farm, Glen Head, Long Island,
where she raises blooded horses and
fine bulldogs. She was seen at No.
124 East Twenty-seventh street, her
city home. Miss Revert does not ap
prove of the new woman, though she
is fearless and passionately fond of
animals. She hopes to finish her
course and take her degree. She
speaks appreciatively of the kindness,
consideration and good-fellowship with
which she was treated by professors
and fellow-students. Miss Revert
treats the horses and dogs on her own
farm, and the horses are always shod
under her personal supervision.
The Dean of the American Veterin
ary College, Dr. Liautard, before his
departure for Europe, said that but
one woman had ever applied for ad
mission to that institution. That was
some years ago. Now, he said, a wo
man would be welcome in any of the
schools. He added there was a great
opening for women in the profession,
particularly in the treatment of pet
dogs and cats. The wealthy women
who owned dogs would certainly take
them to a woman veterinarian if there
was one. Pet cats are always having
fits or indigestion, or some ailment,
and need medical attention. The half
hour with the veterinarian would be
come quite a feature of the society wo
man’s existence.
Mr. Hankinson, the superintendent
of the 8. P. C. A., declared that a wo
man would be likely to have an exten
sive practice among the smaller pets
of society. He said there was one wo
man, whoa he personally knew, who
doctored sick cats and dogs, not for
pay, but purely for the love of them.
He also stated that, if any one should
come to him and ask him to recom
mend some place where a cat or dog
could be boarded and the owner be
assured of its safety and comfort, he
would not be able to do so. He
thought some woman, who was a lover
of animals and in search of a congenial
occupation, ought to try this. She
could take a dozen dogs or cats
to board without having to make any
special arrangement for them. A wo
man who is a veterinary surgeon, and
could treat these expensive pets or
doctor horses, would make more than
the average doctor, for the fees of
veterinarians are double those of the
ordinary M. D.
Dr. Levy, of the Lexington Veter
inary Hospital, says that a woman as
sistant would be so valuable to him iu
his practice that he would willingly
pay her a good salary in return for her
services during her college course.
Some of the wives of prominent
veterinarians, who are not college
graduates, have a wide practical ex
perience,and are well read on the sub
ject of veterinary medicine, among
them Mrs. Gill, the wife of the Dean
of the New York Veterinary College.
There are even now any number of
women who can pick up a pony’s foot
and dig a stone out of it; Miss Kitty
Wilkins, of Bruneau Valley, Idaho,
who raises horses; Mrs. Samuel Caton,
who managed her husband’3 stock
farm while he was in Europe, and Mrs.
Power O’Donoghue, the famous Irish
horsewoman, who broke ber own colts
and trained them and managed her
own stud. There must be others who
are able to enter the veterinary pro
fession, a field of work for women as
yet unexplored. —New York Tribune.

ALASKA A LAND OF GOLD
MAltfY declare its mines the
RICHEST EVER KNOWN.
Reports That Recall Fabulous Eldorado—
Recent Ilincoverles Seem to Indicate
That In Aluaka in the Mother Vein
of the Gold of North America.
Those familiar with the history of
gold mining declare that the gold fields
of Alaska are among the richest both
in quality and in extent that have over
been known. The stories that the
Spanish explorers heard about Eldo
rado were no more wonderful than those
which are now coming down from Alaska
with every steamer, except that the
Spaniards heard of gold already mined
and refined, whereas the Alaska gold
is not yet dug. The Spaniards never
got their gold; the Alaskans are get
ting it by the ton. Here, for instance,
is a quotation from the issue of June
30 of the Alaska Mining Record of
Juneau. It relates to the arrival of
one Jack Hayes, the mail carrier
the Yukon district. Hayes left Ju
neau on January 14 and completed his
tour of duty on June 20. After an in
terview with him about his experi
ences, the Record says:
“Much excitement prevails all
through the Yukon district over the
Klondike discoveries, and all kinds of
stories of the riches there are told,
many of which Mr. Hayes says are
true. It is true that two tenderfeet,
railroad men from Los Angeles, Cab—
Frank Summers and Charles Clemens
—have struck it rich. They went in
a year ago ami located on the Klondike
last fall., Clemens sold his interestfor
$35,000 cash, and his partner, Sum
mers, held on two weeks later and got
$50,000. The money to pay the men
was taken out of the dump which had
been lifted from the shaft on the claim
during the winter. These two men
had each panned out $2500 on their
claim while prospecting it. The man
that bought Clemen’s interest bound
the bargain with a $232 nugget which
had been taken from the Klondike.
Summers is a single man. Clemens
has a wife and two children in Los
Angeles. It is said that both will come
out on the next boat via St. Michael,
bringing with them their little for
tunes. Neither man had ever had any
experience iu mining.
“Alec McDonald took one pan from
his claim which tipped the scales to
the tune of SBOO, and offered a wager
of SIOOO that he could pick his dirt
ana in twenty minutes get a pan that
would go over 100 ounces ($1000). No
one cared to cover the wager.
“Dick Lowe is panning for a living,
and is taking out the modest sum of
SIOO a day.
“Iu a personal letter dated at Circle
City, March 21, Oscar Ashby says in
part:
“,’Our town'is very quiet at present,
every one having gone to the big ex
citement at Klondike. Everybody has
gone crazy over it. This country has
an unparalleled future. There are
thousands of acres that men will not,
in fact, cannot, look at until provisions
are cheaper. I understand that wages
here will be sl2 a day. There is not
enough help,to supply Bettej- ° n
the creeks. Dogs are worth all kinds
of money, from $75 to S3OO each.’ ”
There are one or two men in New
York who know Alaska mining and
Alaska mines well. A Sun reporter
asked one of them to talk about the
gold diggings of Alaska. He did so,
after stipulating that his name should
not be printed. He opened a drawer
of his desk and out of a number of
specimens of ore secured a chunk as
big as a man’s thumb. It was as
heavy as a bullet.
“This,” he said, as he laid it away
in the drawer again, “was picked up
on the surface soil six years ago. An
other piece as big as my fist that was
picked up at the same place we have
been offered $250 for. Now, when
there is gold like that lying about
open to the air, there is just one in
ference to be drawn. It comes from
some place. The man w'ho finds the
place is rich. The man who tells the
world in general what he is looking for
and why under such circumstances is
a fool. By the same token he usually
dies poor and complains of ‘hard
times’, sighs for the return of the ‘good
old days of ’49.’ Why, man, ’49 was
nothing to this! Johannesburg is no
such centre of goldfields as is Juneau.
“But there is this difference between
California in ’49 and Alaska in ’97.
Alaska is all staked out. The news
has not gone abroad until the people
near at hand, the people who have
spent money, time, and their very
lives in developing the country, the
people, in short, who deserved the re
ward had seized on everything in
sight. Down along the coast in the
quartz lodes the stamp mills have been
established one by one, twenty stamps
here, forty there. They have not any
of them begun to he worked as hard
as the available area of ore will per
mit. With mills running altogether
549 stamps, more than half the stamps
working only half a year, the product
of the quartz mines of Alaska in 1897
yielded $2,355,000. I say to you
earnestly, honestly, that is only a pin
scratch. Work in Alaska cannot be
said to have begun. There was never
anywhere anything like it. To sum
the whole thing up, I believe that
right in the Alaska gold deposits is
the mother vein of the gold of North
America. v
“A few weeks ago two young men
came to me with letters. They were
wild with enthusiasm and confidence.
They were going to Alaska they said.
I told them to stay at home, Then
one of them said that he had had lots
of experience in rough knocks. ‘You’ll
get a lot more out there,’ I said.
‘There is more experience out there
than there is gold, and that is saying
heaps.’ ‘But I control $10,000.’ he
said. ‘By glory,’ said I, ‘you’ll need
it.’ And they will. It is no poor
man’s country. A man might as well
start out from Juneau, after all his kit
and outfit are bought, without a cent
as without SSOO or S6OO. But it is a
country every American who can af
ford to travel ought to see. It is a
beautiful country to visit, and there
is no pleasanter trip anywhere.” —New
York Sun.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS,
Keeping the Oven Glenn.
When things boil over in the oven
or you spill juices or baked meats, lot
them char, then you can remove them,
easily. You should brush out tho
oven as religiously as you do the kit
chen, and it should be aired thorough -
ly after cooking spiced things,or onion
dressing, or anything of that kind in
it. If yon neglect to keep the oven
scrupulously clean you will find that
everything that comes out of it will
have the same flavor, exactly as a big
hotel’s viands seem to have.
How Rust to Use a Ham.
Wash and scrape a twelve-pound
ham (the economy is in tho size as well
as quality). Soak two hours in cold
water, wash again and soak iu fresh
water over night. The next morning
wash again and cover with cold water
in a boiler. Add a wineglass and a
half of Worcestershire sauce and heat
gradually Allow twenty minutes to a
pound, For uses cold, leave in boiler
to cool. These suggestions arc from
Colin D. Anderson, compiler of “Tho
Epicure.”
When ready to use, slice off two
inches from the large end and lay
aside until the other end is reached.
The slices should be very thin to serve
cold. For broiling, cut one-sixth
inch, trim off the rind and have broiler
ready, but do not cook the meat until
the family is at the table. Broil not
over three minutes, dish on warm
plate, butter each sand serve.
Recipe For Soft SftßV*
Five pounds of grease will make
nine gallons of excellent soft soap.
Melt a pound can of pure potash with
a quart of water in a large clothes
boiler. Boil the potash for fifteen
minutes, then add the five pounds of
grease and stir it well. Let the mix
ture boil slowly for an hour, stirring
it frequently. At the end of this time
stir two gallons of hot water into it.
Pour the whole into a ten-gallon keg
and stir well. In fifteen minutes add
two gallons more of hot water. Stir
often, and after an hour add four gal
lons of water. This water need not be
hot—blood-warm water will do. Stir
the soap often in the next two or three
hours, and then let it stand over night.
In twelve hours it will be of a fine,
clear, jellvlike consistency, thoroughly
cold and ready for use. It is better
than any manufactured soap for clean
ing rough kitchen floors, for washing
dishes and kitchen-wares, for cleaning
bathtnbs and for use iu the kitchen
boiler.
It is quite possible to make hard
soap with comparatively little trouble,
but the amount of soap grease which
can be saved by the average family is
only sufficient to prepare the amount
of soft soap which can be used. It is
an economy which is worthy of the at
tention of a good housekeeper.—New
York Tribune.
Serving Dinner Without a Maid.
This is, of conrse, a difficult task,
but it can be done if thought is given
to the first arrangements. Have but
few people—it is better to have two
small dinners than one large one.
Prepare the soup, which should be
clear, the day before. Clarify, season
and strain it; cover and keep in a cold
place.
A simple menu would be the follow
ing: Soup; panned chicken with cream
sauce, potato croquettes "and peas; a
tomato mayonnaise, wafers and cheese;
lemon jelly with soft custard and
sponge cake; a small cup of strong
coffee to close.
Your dinner hour is probably six
o’clock. After you have finished your
usual morning work, and parlor and
dining-room are in order, go to the
kitchen and begin the preparations
for the dinner. First, make the may
onnaise, using only the yoke of one
egg and a half cupful of oil with a tea
spoonful of lemon juice or vinegar.
Put this, when finished, into a tumbler,
cover and stand in a cold place. Then
wash the lettuce, shake it and put it
aside. Scald and peel the tomatoes and
stand them in the refrigerator. Then
make the jelly and custard and put
them on the ice. Next make the potato
croquettes. While the potatoes are
boiling, singe, draw and cut up your
chickens. Arrange them at once in
the baking pan, putting the butter and
pepper on, and stand them aside.
Make the croquettes; fry, and put
them at once into a baking pan lined
with pepper. They are now r all ready
to run in a hot oven to heat a moment
before serving them. Shell the peas
and make the butter balls. All of this
preparatory work will take very little
more than an hour.
Recipes.
Baked Mutton—Salt ami pepper
well on both sides; mak@ long deep
gashes over it, and fill these with a
stuffing made of bread crumbs, pep
per, sa.t, onions and sage. Then
sprinkle the meat lightly with flour,
and put it iu a baking-pan. When it
begins to cook, pour in a little hot
water and haste occasionally.
Asparagus ala Tessiuoise—Boil for
only twelve minutes two bunches of
fine fresh asparagus, place them on a
dish in layers, with grated Swiss or
Parmesan cheese between. Lightly
brown a third of a medium-sized
chopped onion in one onnee of butter,
and pour over the whole. Sprinkle
the top with a little cheese and bread
crumbs, and cook in a moderate oven
for fifteen minutes. Send to the table
on the same dish.
Mashed Chicory—Trim off the
greenest leaves and hard parts of
chicory stalks; parboil five minutes in
salted water, drain, cool in cold water,
press the water out, put the chicory
on the table, and chop very fine; put
it iu a saucepan on the fire with two
ounces of butter; stir five miuutes,
sprinkle an ounce of flour over; mix
well; season with salt, pepper, nut
meg and a little sugar; dilute with
white broth; boil slowly for half an
hour. Finish with two ounces of l ut
ter and mix well.
Strawberry Trifle—Mash one pint of

SUFFERING, WOMEN.
How Many of Them Have Quietly
Obtained Advice That Made
Them Well.
My sister, if you find that in spite of
following faithfully your family doc
tor's advice, you are not getting well,
why do you not try another course ?
Many and many a woman has quietly
written to Mrs. Pinkham, of Lynn,
Mass., stating her symptoms plainly
and clearly, and taken her advice, which
was promptly received. The follow
\ before I
would get well. I had female troubles
in their worst form, suffered untold
agonies every month ; my womb tipped
back to my backbone, had headache,
hysteria, fainting spells, itching, leu
corrhoea.
“My feet and hands were cold all
the time, my limbs were so weak that
I could hardly walk around the house:
was troubled with numb spells. I
have taken four bottles of Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, one
bottle of her Blood Purifier, one pack
age of her Sanative Wash, and am
entirely cured. I have not had one
of those numb spells since. Can you
wonder that I sing the praises of a
medicine that has cured me of all these
ills ?”_Mrs. Louisa Place, 650 Bel
mont St., Brockton, Mass.

Gaum Liver [Mo.
KEEPING abreast with
the lnvt tion. oi this
age, we, by modern ma
chinery, compress our
powdered Dr. M. A. Sim
mons’ Liver Medicine into
tablets and sugar coat
them.
Consumers can either
swallow the tablets whole
or chew them up and swal
low with water. The
candy sugar coating ex
cludes the air, protects the
purified medicine from
microbic influences, pre
vents the possibility of
deterioration from atmos
pheric changes, insuring
perfect purity and full
strength when taken, and
makes it pleasant to
take as candy. Tablets
contain only the powdered
Liver Medicine, same as
sold in packages by Dr.
M. A. Simmons and we
his successors, since 1840.
Price 25 Cents per Package.
