Mr. “Kid” Robinson, the talented and bright young prize tighter of this city, left this week for Los Angele?, Cal., to pay a visit to his parents, whom he has not seen for quite a while. In bidding good-bye to a representa tive of this* paper, Mr. Robinson said he would be absent from t he city* thre t weeks. He said he thought a great deal of his parents and their welLre was always a matter of deep concern to him, because had it not been for them he would not have been a prize tighter. He always thinks of them and sends them something, and al - they have never b«en in desti tute circumstances yet, but if such a time should ever come and he did not have the monny to help them, he thinks so much of his parents that he would try io knock out the biggest man in the world iu order to get ru< n ey to send them. This, in our judge ment. is the ideal gervPmau prize tighter and one to be admired by all good citizens. New Bethel Baptist Church. Rev. N. A. Seymour, Pastor.

Women have had a good deal of in fluence in the public affairs of the world in the 30 or 40 centuries which have passed since Helen “laid old Troy in ashes.” It was the personal appeals of his niece, Harriet Lane, so some of the gossips of the time inti mated, which prevailed on Buchanan, then old, in whom the fires of ambi tion had died out. to accept the candi dacy of 1856. Adele Cutts, the second wife of Stephen A. Douglas, who mar ried Gen. Robert Williams a few years after Douglas’ death, and who died winter, was said at the time to have incited Douglas to lead the op position to the Lecompton pro-slavery constitution which President Buchan an and the South tried to force upon Kansas in 1858. This was one of the most creditable acts in Douglas’ ca reer, and his wife’s hand in it sug gests the presumption that if he had married her a few years earlier he might have avoided that blunder of 1854, in which the Missouri Compro mise was repealed, the Whig party killed, the Democratic party split, and the war of secession precipitated. The refusal of Mrs. Calhoun and the other ladies of the “court circle” to “recognize” Mrs. Eaton, whose hus band was Secretary of War in Jack son’s cabinet, broke up the cabinet, split a segment off the Democratic party, turned Jackson against Cal houn, put Calhoun out of the “line of secession,” to the Presidency, and sent Van Buren, who had no wife (he was a widower) and who, was, there fore free to extend courtesies to Mrs. Eaton, to the White House. It was known that Dolly Madison had as much influence In the administration of her husband, the fourth President, as Mme. Pompadour had in that of Louis XV. The ambition to destroy the Dolly Madison legend of political popularity was said to have been the incentive which led Kate P. Chase to put and keen her father, Salmon P. Chase, in the Presidential field. Several influential ladies were as de voted to Clay’s political fortunes as the Duchess of Devonshire was to those of Charles James Fox. Mrs. Blaine, it was said at the time, dic tated her husband’s attitude toward the nomination on several occasions, while Mrs. John A. Logan was as ac tive and powerful an aid to “Black Jack” in politics as Terentia was to Cicero. The politicians would do well to keep an eye on the American woman. She may alter the current of American political history in 1900. —Leslie’s Weekly. In Defense of Stepmothers. “Most of us have been brought up on the good old orthodox fairy tales.” Is .the position taken by M. E.. J. Kel ley when making “A Plea for the Stepmother,” in the January Wom an’s Home Companion. "We have im bibed with our earliest draughts of lit erature the notion that stepmothers are all wicked and cruel fiends. The novelists of later date, taking their cue from the fairy stories, have elaborated on this assumption until thh very name of ‘stepmother’ carries with it a suggestion of cruelty and oppression. We find it quite credible that when the sweetest girl of our acquaintance becomes a stepmother Rhe will feed her own babies on angel cake and make the dead wife’s children get on with plain brown bread. We are shocked, of course, but we expect all manner of atrocious things from step mothers. “The stepmother’s side of the case Is never heard. It seems to be the first wife’s friends who rush into print al ways. As a rule, too. they are the ones who stir up trouble in the first place between the children and their stepmother. Once in awhile, no doubt, there, is a wicked, cruel stepmother of the story book type, because there are still some wicked, cruel women in he world in spite of all the evidences pf women’s advancement. When talk ing about stepmothers, however, we rarely recall the fine types of step mothers who stand cut so bravely in the pages of more than one biography. There was that remarkable family to which Maria Edgeworth belonged, with its more than 20 children and two stepmothers. Their father had been married three times, and each step mother was mourned as heartily by her stepchildren as by her owtf. And there was Mrs. Johnson, Lincoln’s stepmother, whom he always loved and provided for, and she must cer tainly have loved him.in quite mother ly fashion. Otherwise she could hard ly have paid him that charming trib ute, ‘He was the best boy she ever knew or ever expected to know.’ She never knew him once to refuse to do anything she wanted him to do or to seem not to want to do it.” The Care of Flannels. A friend said fo me a few days since that she wished the household departments In domestic journals would say more about the washing of flannels, the best methods, etc., as she had looked through a number of them and could not find a single recipe; so I hunted up a few good ones which, had been given me by old. experienced housewives, and will tell you their methods, which have proved sucessful for a number of years. Baby’s flannels are usually of the softest and flnest material, and should be kept in the best possible condition. A careless, inefficient laundress can ruin the best of woolen garments in a few washings, and it is a very ex pensive item to have the family flan nels so treated. It not only roughens and shrinks them, but it is so irritat ing to the flesh, especially with babies. The following method has been used 1 with success: Use water that is as hot as you can : bear your hands in. for flannels can not be boiled, and hot water is neces sary to cleanse them. It is a stipulat ed fact by physicians that disease germs can linger in woolen goods and can be conveyed to others, but if bo rax is dissolved in the suds it purifies and softens the water. Dissolve enough borax in the hot water and enough white soap to make a strong suds; wash the flannels through two waters prepared in this way, plunging them up and down and squeezing be tween the hands. The borax not only disinfects but it helps to preserve the fiber and texture of fine flannels; it softens them and makes very little rubbing necessary, which is an item. Rinse through clean, warm water, having the water same temperature to rinse in as It is first washed in. and pass them through a wringer. Then just before hanging out, pull and stretch each piece in shape (this is an imperative duty), for if not done thp fibers become hard and shrunken and interlaced. Place them on a smooth line, where a breeze will blow through them. —S. H., in Maine Farmer. One Way to Thread a Needle. An ingenious lady has suggested an improvement in the method of holding a needle for the purpose of threading it. It is to be held between the third and little fingers of the left hand, in stead of by the thumb and forefinger, palm uppermost. The advantage of this is that the thumb and the first finger can be used to grip the smallest end of the thread as soon as it protrudes from the eye. a method preferable to that of letting go the thread and endeavoring to get hold of the end with the right hand. This prevents the weight of the cot ton from dragging the end out of the eye again.—Cincinnati Enquirer. Formality of Calling. During an ordinary afternoon call the hostess rises to receive each guest. She makes sure that each one who en ters has a seat. If there are so many in the room as' to prevent general con versation she talks with the latest ar rival. When any of her guests depart she arises, but does not go to the door with them. It Is not necessary for those who have first called, when there there are several persons in the room, to hasten away on the arrival of new comers, although generally they should not outsit the latter. Ladles who are calling do not arise on the en trance or departure of other callers, except in the case of the very aged. A general bow on entering or depart ing should include all in the room. A formal call should never be less than 15 minutes iu length nor should It of ten be much longer. Cards are seldom sent into the drawing room, but are better left on the salver in the hall. A lady must, never forget to leave a card for each lady in the family on which she Is calling. A wife leaves her hus band’s card, motherless daughters their father’s, but brothers and sons are supposed to leave cards in person. In some places one may call from 2 to 6. In others, 3 to 5, but the best hours are from 4 to 6. —Leah Lanceford, in the January Woman’s Home Compan ion. One Woman's RulingPasMon. "There goes a woman,” said the girl, “who hasn’t a thought on earth except dress. I kuow that superior man at tributes this particular weakness to all women—but it’s a canard, as, of course, are nine of ten male estimates of women.” She conquered a refractory button on her glove before she continued: “But that woman who passed us is. without doubt, the most dress crazy woman I have ever met. She knows no topic save dress —can speak of no other subject. She spends one-half of her time at the dressmaker’s, and the other half is used in exploiting the handicraft of the modiste. Goodness only knows when she manages to get anything to eat. She’s dead to every feeling, I believe except that which has to do with dress. And what do you think she said. Saturday? I met her as wo were going out of the house of mourning. A young woman whom we both knew had died —and we had been at the funeral. Coming down the steps I noticed my friend, but the feel ing of sorrow was too fresh upon me to permit anything more than a nod of recognition. Then I said: ‘Poor, dear, Clara —alive and well one week ago. and now —nor,’ she’s gone!’ “ ‘Yes.’ answered my friend, bland ly: ‘but wasn't she dressed beauti fully? Really. it was a treat to see her!” —Philadelphia Press. Advice to Girls About Drinking.
