WOMAN’S PROGRESS
EDUCATIONALLY AND
PROFESSIONALLY.
In a very recently publlahed article
by Walter Thornton, the progreaa of
Woman of late year* la very Interest-
Ingly treated. Mr. Thornton aaya. In
part:
The nineteenth century wa* 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-operation: and lost, but per-
hapa moat Important, of woman by a
peaceful revolution of opinion and
practice. Woman'* "rlghta” were, to
be aure, latest to be appreciated; wom
en had to u-alt for the negro, and have
pot yet been given ao much aa he re-
V their emancipation la now In
fuf( prosreae, and haa reached In thla
country the aatlafactory atage where
every one takes It for granted that a
E lrl should be educated aa well aa her
rother, ahould have a chance to earn
her. living In any profemdon or bual-
neaa oj* trade In which ahe la compe
tent, and ahould be a partner of equal
right in' the marriage relation. Thla
change haa been literally aa audden aa
the diffualon of the franchlae or the
abolition of ala very.
Two generation* ago no provision
waa made for the education of women
In more than the rudlmenta; bualneaa
life, apart from aelllng candy to chil
dren and bonnet* to young women, waa
cloaed to them; the professional wom«$
an waa unheard of and undreamed of.
Our bualnes* colleges ore now about
equally attended by young women and
men. In our medical achoola are near
ly 1,600 women atudenta, and thla laat
commencement waa the occaelon of the
graduation of some, hundred each of
women pharmacologiata, dentlata, law
yer* ana clergymen. Finally, within a
generation women have created a new
profeanton, and that one of the noble*t
and inoat uaeful. For thla year aome
eight thouaand trained nuraea will bo
graduated Into a truly profeaalonal life,
and over nlne-tentha of them will be
women.
The higher education meana fltnes*
for the learned profeaalona; nnd In a
rational world fltneaa meana employ
ment. Women are capable of doing
useful and noble work In every pro-
feaalon, such work aa the world need*.
The world wilt call upon women for
more and more of auch work every
year. What la true of the profeaalona
U equally true of business and indus
trial life. It la doubtful If at the end of
twenty years there will be a single oc
cupation in which women will not to
■ome extent share.
There 1* nothing necessarily objec
tionable in thla 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 baaed on mere per
sonal prejudice or on misconceptions
of fact. The moat frequent I* the
aaaertlon that the womanliness or fem
ininity of women suffers from the con
tact with and absorption in the life
of business. Industrial or professional
*I?thUi means that timidity, deceit,
dependence and Inefficiency are dis
couraged in favor of energy, frank
ness and self-direction, it fa true; but
It la no objection save In the minds of
those who persist in thinking of wom
en as men's pet animals. If femininity
means the so-called female charm, the
aubtle qualities which appeal to man
as man, the coquetry, mystery and
challenge of woman aa the object of
Instinctive pursuit, the charge 1* again
In a measure true; but once more thla
Is no objection.
Women should be more to the world
than fit objects to attract men; for the
same reason that men should be more
than lit objects to attract women. No
one need fear that women will cease to
be alluring enough. If womanliness
means the steadiness of affection, the
loyalty and sacrifice which are the
proper fruits of motherhood, and If a
life In the world of affairs means 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 always 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 Is the
at»id increase which we know has
aken place In the Immediate past.
It i» a sober prophecy to make that

EYES' BEAUTIFIED.
Beautiful eyes and laahea are not so
difficult to obtain as aome women think,
for even though the color and shape
cannot be changed, their beauty may
be greatly enhanced by special care and
treatment. Thl* is especially true of
women who have occasion to use their
eyes at any close work.
While fancy work Is valuable, since
It Is aald to act as a sedative for the
nerves In much the same meaner as
smoking for men, yet there Is always
the tendency to overstrain the sight.
Insufficient light, reading far from a
lamp or on a train all are apt to induce
Inflammatory conditions which affect
the beauty of the eyes, aa well as their
usefulness.
In the event of a slight Inflammation,
a mild astringent such as boraclc acid
does much to relieve this tendency, us
ing ten grains of the acid to an ounce
of distilled water, or, If a little more
severe treatment Is necessary, the ad
dition of a grain of sulphate of xlnc
to the solution Increases Its efficacy.
Dilute this, one-half to one-third, and
use In an eye cup,' which should be only
half fltled. Salt and water also Is good
for bathing tired eyes.
Tonlo for Puffineis Beneath Eyas.
One of the most annoying results of
eye strain Is* the baggy condition un
der the eyes, which Is -erj- disfiguring.
Disease of the liver and kidneys also
occasions this appearance, but In that
event a physician should be consulted.
To restore the relaxed condition of the
skin tannic acid Is generally effectual,
using twenty grains to an ounce of gly
cerine, which may be applied with a
soft camel’s hair brush to the puffihess
night and morning.
Massaging the eyes and Just beneath
them also restores the tonicity of the
skin. With the thumb and forefinger of
each hand take up the ekln little by
little beneath each eye, using quite a
little pressure ns progress Is made.
With.the thumb and forefinger gently
massage, the eyeballs also. This often
restores the sight In weak eyes, but
care ahould be taken-that the work Is
done gently, using the forefinger, begin
ning at the middle and working out to
the corners of the eyes.
Pretty Lashes Aid to Beauty.
Nothing adds more to womanly beau-
V than pretty eyelashes and eyebrows,
and In the case of the former therj Is
the added virtue of long lashes being a
protection to the eyes. Formerly It
was never thought necessary to assist
nature In nlterlng the shape or appear
ance of the eyebrows and lashes, but
now there are estabtlahments that
make a regular business of treating
them. A few mlnutea’ dally care at
home, though, will work wonders In
this respect.

For 8tarlng Brows.
In the event of the brows being star
ing and coarse, a 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 dye
composed of:
Gum arable, 1 dram; India Ink, 1-2
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 of
kerosene rubbed In carefully will In
crease their growth, while a pomade
composed of one ounce of red vaseline,
one-sixteenth of an ounce of tincture of
cantharldes, eight drops of oil of lav
ender, and the same or oil of rosemary
will be effectual.
It should be mixed throughout and
applied to the eyebrows with a tiny
toothbrush once a day uhtll the growth
Is sufficiently stimulated, then less of
ten. Clipping the ends of the lashes
Is said to accelerate their growth.

For the Plain Girl.
Off woman does long (or beau
ty!
It Is no use telling her that.
It Is better to be clever, or wise, or
Jolly. She will listen gravely to your
arguments, but don’t tmnk tor a mo
ment that she le 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 of beauty.
The plain little girl hears her pretty
companion’s eyes and curls praised.
Her own ways may be Just as cun
ning and her little heart Just as loving,
but no one pays any special attention
to her. The poor baby leama very soon
that she must forego a good deal of
admiration and attention.
At school tho little boys flock around
the pretty girl. She may be a non
entity, but she never lacks for mascu
line attendants.
The sooner the plain girl learns that
she must "make good” for her plain-
neea, tho better It will be for her.
It Is no use crying over split milk,
so ahe must not alt In a corner and
mope over her lack of attraction.
Sho Is generally unselfish and un
spoiled, so she has those two excellent
qualltee to start with.
The pretty girl It often very self-
conscious, and that la not at all a
pleasing quality.
The plain girl Is not afflicted with
self-consciousness, because she Is not
always thinking that people are look
ing at her.
Her longing to be pretty should lead
her to make the most of such charms
as she possesses.
She can keep her eyes bright and
her complexion good by living In
sensible, wholesome way.
She can be exquisitely neat In ap
pearance, and dress as becomingly as
possible. *
If she studies and talks about the In
terest!: of others, \she will never lack
for friends.
The pretty girl, of course, will al
ways he sought after, but unless Bhe
makes hereelf agreeable the attention
will be but fleeting.
The plain girl who makes no attempt
to charm will never win the least ad
miration.
If yon are plain, don’t fret over It.
Fretting will only make you plainer b,
drawing peevish lines on your face.
Just make up your mind to be ns
cheerful nnd 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, anti the fact that your face
Is plain must not spoil your life.
There are Just as many happily mar*
rled plain womer a* pretty.
But you may be sure those women
did not sit and bemoan their hard
fate In being plain.
They mad* themselve* agreeable
enough to attract the men, and so they
not only won attention, but htiaba„us

Captain Jones has this to say of the Importance of military training:
"The Importance of military drill, study and habits cannot be over
estimated, as from them the student gains Improvement In address, and
cultivates habits of neatness, punctuality and obedience. Physical develop
ment of growing boys Is greatly aided by systematic military drill. In a
short time the body assumes a more manly and dignified appearance. School
discipline Is also much better where their students are required to drill dally."
