II • [Short Letters on home topics eammtlr solicited. Write "Woman's Kingdom on corner of the envelop.] It is well for women to have information on all sulyocfa, and yet it ia astonishing how lit tle our city ladies know -ctfthe country. We don't expect fashionable people to know any thing about crops, «4o^ for generally when thoy leave town it is not for the sweet nest the cool, shades of the country brings, but fori toowe fashionable watering place, or (die sea- a*4c where they spewd the days In dressing, and the wights in dancing. But there are-a large clars of our edljr folks who 4s not come underlets head, and get their idea's of coun try life are as meagre aa a little child. They have 'no idea of the refined and educated |»eo- jde nno finds all -ever the country. I actually heard a lady not long since aaic a young lady friend who bad married in the -city and gone to Che country to live, what do you wear in •the country?” tho young lrsend looked at her ' in surprise, atid said "what do you mean?" why she said ■"how do you dress in the morn ings?" the reply was "just as I did in the, •city." The Idea was :bat there .could be’ nothing plain enough fand for the country; and there was never a greater mistake. There ns no place where there 4s more real unalloyed •comfort and happiness than in the*eoutitry. I was very much pleased with a letter from a I ly preferred. object the sending of poor children to the country enjoy the freeb air for two weeks during the summer mouths, also the poor, worn out shop girls. When we consider the number of poor wretched little ones that are crowded In cellars and garrets of that city who never breathe any but vitiated air, aud the poor girls who stand day after day behind the counters in hot stores, we can but recognise wtmt a blessing this association must be to this daw of people. Rev. Dr. Pullman Is president and the association Is sustained by contributions. Last week the first party of chil dren were sent out to comfortable country hemes tnmt Tecotileesid Houthold, Long Island, where Urey will remain two weeks.
