WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1898'

EVE’S RAMBLINGs.
COMMENT AMSIP AMONG

THE WOMEN. BYE ONE
OF THEM.

Many a fine lady could learn some
useful lessons from the wives of work-
ing men. Those who spend their lives
in pleasure and frivolity, who have
never done a real day’s work in all
their existence, cannot posSibly imagine
life as it is lived by the wivesho'f wOrk-
ing men. _ i . '

They can see the vices, the vulgarity,
the drudgery, quickly enough, but they
cannot understand how such a life can
be made beautiful in the truest sense
of the word by self—sacrifice and~ devo-
tion to duty.

When facts are} being continually
brought to light in regard to the nar-
row groove in‘ which the majority of
working women are compelled to move
the absence of refinement, appreciation
love, congenial ..- work and pleasant
surroundings.

“The Lives of Working Women, ” by
one whose husband clamors for an eight
hours’ day, while his better half would
be only too glad if ‘ some kind friend
would get‘ them a fourteen hours’ day,
for at present their working day is

~nearer sixteen hours than 'eight, with
but few holidays to break the monotcn y.

Again, in working class circles, when
unpleasant duties have to be performed .
they invariably fall to the lot Of the
wife.

To thinking people it causes no sur-
prise when they find that working
women are given to gossip and scandal:
human nature will have relaxation Of
some kind, and the shortcoming (f
gossiping and slandering are not con-
fined to the ranks‘rof working women.

When we take all this in to consider
atiou, the charges of selfishness and in-
difference, which are, so readily thrown
at working women by their more
fortunate sisters, fall harmless to the
ground. I

It would not be fair to give the im-
pression that the lives Of working wom-
en are all sorrow and shade. The truth
is that the gleams of sunshine are few

and fitful, while the mist and rain, the '

drudgery and weary monotony are al-
most continuous.

A story is told of a certain lady who
had experienced a goodly share of this
world’s storm and stress, that on being
asked by a friend what her idea of
heaven was, she replied: “I always
think of it as beinga place where I can
sit and do nothing.” Very likely this
majority of toil-worn women in this

33 workaday world Of ours will be. able to
sincerely echo the same sentiment.

Feminine Chat.

 

What a thing is point of view! And
for what crimes is it responsible.

What a complete misfit there seems
to be between places to sell and places
wanted! w

That most restless of all cooking
utensils is beginning to “chafe” again
to be at work- ,

There is no kiss that gives a more
intoxicating thrill than that given by
brilliant, clear October.

Sunday night’s frost has saved
hundreds of pricked fingers in its work
of opening chestnut burrs.

Why is it the “friendly” thing to
discourage the pioneer? Is over-con-
fidencea universal quality?

What we have lost of sense in the
length of our gowns we have absolute-
ly gained in the style of our walking
shoes. '

Judging from the popularity of
weighing machines among women, it
has been suggested that they “weigh
light.”

The paralyzing creed that our niche
is soon filled and the world goes on
without asigh is given the lie in every
heart evel‘y day.

The small fry who whine outtheir
hate for sums and verbs these days
digit guess how much stronger are the
adjectives of dislike silently indulged
in by mother and father.
