Hen are beginning to cry out because of the coortaut pelting they pet from women. In scholarship, in tiusiuoss en-' terprise and even in gut-eminent women are finding out what awful humbug men hare been all along in their as-umption of superior wisdom aud ability.

Even in the field of athletics woman it running man hard. What wonder, then, with the new sense of her own power glowing tbrongh all her being like currents of electricity, woman turn on man and deride bint for his world old pretense of superiority? What wonder that she points to man' inferior moral life, his propensities for feeding and drinking and his other exaggerated animal instincts, aud demands that he shall henceforth lead the cleaner, more spiritual life that nhould mark a human being emancipated from mere animal-ismf Men hare been boasting of their own superiority since the world began. It is now their turn to hear something about the superiority of the feminine sex, and they frankly confess they don't like it In a wise and kindly editorial The Popular Science Monthly begs women to hre mercy and stop making fan of men. The Popular Science Monthly at least has the manliness to acknowledge the corn and cry enough. It points out that a rivalry between the sexes is most of all to be deprecated.

Men and women were never meant to be rivals, but comrades and helpers of Mch other. The editorial says that woman now summons man "most clearly and distinctly to walk henceforth on higher levels in the strength of a nobler self control. What it is clear that man has to do in those latter days is to frame to himself a higher and completer ideal of manhood than he has hitherto on the whole entertained aud try to live up to it" This is noble, admirable And to the point. But when The Monthly goes further and warns women off from trying to nitrite themselves over on the pattern of men it is currying coals to Newcastle. There is not the slightest danger of their doing that.

They recoguizo that the "ever womanly," fearless, gentle, fine and strong, is a sweeter ideal than any realized in the person of man as he is today. When woman's true spiritual nature is released by freedom, it will soar like a bird into realms of light and beauty the race as yet has only seen dimly in dreams. Eight women in nil have been regularly ordained as ministers in the Dap-tint denomination. The superintendent of tho famous Tiffany Stained Glass and Decorating compuny in New York city is a woman Mmo, Olgu Fruuoes Mary Hardin-court She is French, and her youth was spent in an Austrian convent, where she loarnod to make exquisite art embroidery and do painting. With this knowledge it was easy for hor directing brain to guide tho workmen who put together mechanically tho bits of stained glass.

Some of the most beautiful house and altar furnishings at the World's fair were made under her direction. The human raae is a child, and every woman is its mother. The "-official organ of the Federation of Women's Clubs is The Now Cycle. Jennie Juno is its editor, and Helen M. Winslow of Boston is its associate editor.

Theodosia B. Shepard is a woman florist who raises seeds for tho eastern market. Hor gardens aud groonhouBos are at Pasadena, Cal. She now has one of tho largest seed farms in the world. "Amber" of Tho Breoder's Ga.otto sifys of Mrs.

Shepard's homo: "It is like visiting paradise to spond a morning among her flowers. Imagine flvo acres of nothing but sweet poas if you can aud thon try and imagine the humming birds, tho mooking birds and moadow larks that make their homo among them." There is one wouiuu commercial traveler in tho west who draws a salary of 15,000, so valuable hus she proved herself to hor employors. Miss P. M. Bru-nor of Dayton, is another very successful drummer.

Those two are business all through, with no nonsense about them. Mrs. John Richard Green, widow of the historian, is now one of the committee to transact the business of the London library. When it is remembered that such men as Herbert Spencer serve on this committee, the honor bestowed on Mrs. Green may be understood.

Elizabeth Kingsbury says the reason many young women do not marry is be cause of the flnanoial slavery in whichq wives are so often kept The unpardonable sin in a newspaper writer, man or woman, is want of accuracy. Nearly 750,000 petitioners asked for woman suffrage in New York etata We asked the constitutional convention, in case it did not want to pass on the question itself, to simply authorize the referendum to be applied and submit it to a vote, of the men of New York in the fall The convention would not even do this. All its members had to do was to let the qualified voters of the state decide whether they wanted their wives and Bisters to rote. But the members were evidently to afraid that a majority of the intelligent men of the state were in favor of it that they did not dare to let the question oome before these voters. Never mind.

Suffrage for the women of New York is just one year nearer than it was in 1808. If a minister thinks women have no call to preach, then it is certain that they have no call to listen to his sermons. -J! The ideal woman is as strong as she is gentle and as gentle as she is strong. Miss Ada Piatt, lately admitted to the bar in Illinois, is probably the first colored woman lawyer in the world.
