THE WOMANLY WOMAN.
Grentlvnes.n and Refinement Are the
Chief Elements la Her
Edneation.
The big American banquet hall of.
the Manhattan hotel was crowded
with members of the Emma Willard
association and their friends on the
occasion of the thirteenth annual ban
quet of the organization. Among the
speakers were Chancellor MacCracken,
Bishop Scarborough, of New Jersey,
and Miss Spence, reports the New
York Tribune, of recent date. “Hun
dreds of young men and women,” said
Miss Spence, “who have received their
college degrees are not really edu
cated. They are thoroughly instruct
ed, and perhaps amply equipped from
a technical standpoint. But education
means so much more than this. It
means individual development, cul
ture, character. In every walk in life,
to accomplish our purpose, we must
know clearly at the start what we
mean to do. If colleges and schools
would really succeed in turning out
educated men and women in the high
est sense of the word, they must first
define that term. Is it to stand for
nothing more than instruction in facts
or other people’s ideas? Or is it to
include soul culture, life broadening
and true development and efficiency?
To my mind mothers are largely re
sponsible for a child’s (especially a
daughter’s) aimless life. The sole de
sire of, alas! so many, is that their
children shall have a good time while
they’re young. And this is right
enough, but they should remember
that the good time of the butterfly is
not necessarily the good time of the
girl, and that the true good time and
growth of character are not incompat
“True womanliness should be one of
the chief elements of a young wom
an’s education. The unpardonable sins
of womanhood are hardness and
coarseness, dearth of gentleness and
any guise of selfishness. A virtue that
should be earnestly cultivated by the
woman of to-day is a greater sincer
ity in the manners and customs of
society. This is the contribution all
true women should make to the so
ciety of their time. Society needs gen
tle women in the true sense of that
word. Only that education is worth
while which stands for service to the
world—in some form, material or im
material, and the latter is often the
more real of the two. In fact, the
ideal, whatever it be, is the real
an oft said saying, but one as often
forgotten in the details of daily life.
“It is the privilege and no less the
duty of every one who aspires to be
| called an educator to ever hold up this
vision of the ideal, ever ‘follow the
gleam’—live the great revelation in
| the details of daily life.”
AN UNLUCKY DEAL.
tllnstratlna: the Mistake of a Man
Who Tries to Help Around
the House.
When a married man gets out of his
orbit, or off his half of the domestic
i carpet, so to speak, the consequences
are always more or less disastrous to
him, says the Detroit Free Press.
“We’ve just moved,” said an unhap
py-looking man in a little neighbor
j hood crowd of men who were buying
; their evening cigars at a corner to
| bacco shop. “Or, rather, we are half
; moved. Half our household truck has
: gone over to the new place, and half
is still with us. Then I sold a lot, too,
i and got myself in awful hot water,
i You know how it is when a man starts
I out in his own house to do things
without asking his wife.”
“Oh, yes; we know,” echoed all the
others.
“In our stable attic.” the man con
tinued, “we had a lot of old stuff
stored. I’ve heard my wife say a dozen
I times that we must look it over and
| sell a good deal of it the next time we
moved. To-day she was over to the
other house, and as I was kind of stand
ing round, not knowing where to take
hold next, along came a junk man
through the alley. I hailed him and
took him up in the stable attic; there
I sold him an old table, an old high
chair, a battered old crib and a car
pet. He gave me six dollars for the lot.
I fourffl a box of old battered brass trays
plaques and picture frames after he was
gone, and peddled those off at a nickei
apiece to some neighborhood chlldrei
who were tagging me around all day.
“Of course, a man never really knows
_1_*- u « Unc- paIH until hid wife*
him; and to-morrow I'm to chase al
day after that junk man. I’ve sold oui
best parlor carpet, taken up when sum
| mer came in, my wife’s own highlj
j treasured infant’s high chair and i
crib which was also her mother’s, an<
a real mahogany table she had store<
away to have done over. She hersel
had paid nine dollars for the old table
and was glad to get it at that. Old ta
bles are getting scarce, she says.”
‘‘How about the brass objects?" soon
one asked.
‘‘Oh, I’ve got to go around and bu;
those back, too,” the man replied, sad
ly. “They were high-art beaten bras:
nondescripts which my wife made her
self at the age of 13, and she says he
mother wouldn’t part with them fo
anything.” ____

f MISS FAY LEE; I
President of the Shakespearian Club, Kansas City. t
“ Your booklet came to my
home like a message of healtn
when I had suffered with
headache, backache and bear
ing-down pains. I was weak, ,
nervous and hysterical and i
had not consulted any doctor,
thinking it would pass away j
in time, but instead I found
that the pains increased and
were more frequent. I de
cided to try Vine of Cardui
i .nit in * ttinrt time was much
nervous tension. The nerves
soon begin to give way under
the strain. You perhaps jump
at any unusual disturbance,
or laugh or weep, hysteri
cally, at no apparent cause.
That is what Miss Fay Lee,
603J>£ North Seventh Street,
Kansas City, Kansas, was
coming to when She rescued
herself by taking Wine of
Cardui. The Wine made
her a strong, healthy woman
improved. It seemed to act like a charm.
I kept up the treatment and the result
was most satisfactory. Words fail to ex
press my gratitude for the suffering that
is now saved me. I am in fine health,
physically and mentally. I can only say
‘thank you', but there is much more in
my heart for you.”
EEARING-DOWN pains are the
worst that women know. If
you are suffering from this trou
ble you need not be uncertain
about it. The pains in the abdomen
and back that feel as if heavy weights
were pulling down on*the nerves of the
stomach are “bearing-down pains”.
They may not be particularly severe at
present but they are growing worse.
That headache which nearly drives you
distracted now is caused by the terrible
again, as it has made a minion omer
women strong and healthy. By induc
ing regular menstruation the entire
system is relieved of the terrible wasting
drains. The ligaments which hold the
womb in place are strengthened by a
healthy flow and that organ is returned
to its normal position. Returning
health is the result. This is what
Wine of Cardui has done for thousands
of the best women in America..
If you need advice write The Ladies’
Advisory Department, The Chatta
nooga Medicine Company, Chattanooga,
Tenn., describing all your symptoms
freely, and a letter of advice will be
sent you. Secure a $1.00 bottle of Wine
of Cardui from your druggist to-day.
