The Future Californium
Are the boys and girls who are now
(trowing up, amid a confusion of
trunks, tin cans and improvised clos
ets. What influence will such sur
roundings have upon his or her after
life ? is the question which naturally
arises. Certainly such association j,
to say the least of it, do not serve to
educate the taste or refine the pereep
Hons. Neither are they conducive to
the cultivation of that home feeling
which in maturer years is
such a bulwark to the mor
al character. In innumerable
instances this utter disregard of do
mestic comfort is the result of cir
cumstances over which the heads of
families have no control, in others it
is due to a determination to speedily
amass a fortune; and in many more
cases, it arises from an indifference,
improperly called atmospheric, -but
which really is born of the absolute
cutting loose fspm old customs and
acquaintances. In Los Angeles there
are a great many beautifully furnished
and well conducted homes,
but the masses of the people
live in an abandoned' style un
worthy of even the poorer neighbor
hoods of the East. Vet the majority
of these very people, previous to their
migration to the Pacific slope, lived
not only nicely, but elegantly. Of
course the change of residence and
the long journey consequent upon it
necessitated, in most instances, the
sale of all household effects and the
subsequent building up of new homes;
but it did not necessitate a perfect
emancipation from all rules of
neatness, comfort and beauty.
I know one respectable family,
consisting of a father, mother and
three children, two of whom are half
grown, who keep a lodging-house, and
who sleep and eat in one small room.
I know another of the same size and
social stratum who live in an apartment
adjoining a butcher shop, ami which
is so thoroughly saturated with the
odor of fish and meat that night or
day it is impossible while in it to in
hale one breath of pure air.
Unfortunately, these cases are
not exceptional. Then, too, be
hold the yard which surrounds
the average cottage. Instead
of being covered with grass, and
adorned with flowers, it is the recep
tacle of every species of rubbish and
disfigurement. Unsightly sheds or
so-called barns, fences without even
an apology of paint, and boxes, and
discarded pans, and papers and rags
heaped in hopeless confusion one
upon another. To these surround
ings, therefore, the children's eyes
become habituated; they know no
more of beauty than they know of ice
and snow. They see, but they do not
observe the majestic grandeur of the
mountains, the celestial blue of the
sky and the gorgeous coloring of the
flowers which bloom so prodigally
about them. A few are born with
the love of the beautiful, but the
majority are not, and so, as their
tastes are not cultivated, they are
-doomed to go through life with their
esthetic sight blindfolded. The
effect of this general carelessness has
a tendency to make indifferent boys
develop into indifferent men, and
slovenly girls develop into slovenly
women. Under such circumstan
ces it is utterly impossible
ior even the most clever girl to
learn how to keep house properly.
Her quarters are restricted and unde
fined, her clothing and books are
crammed into an overcrowded trunk,
or are tangled up with her brother's
rubber boots and improvised kite in
the family closet; while she is so used
to seeing the frying pan under the bed
and the soiled linen iv the vegetable
basket, that she grows up unconscious
of the domestic discord that would
have turned her New England grand
mother's hair gray in a week. Besides,
she misses the pleasure so dear to
every girl of having a room to herself;
and which, at will, she can decorate
with the photographs of her school
mates, souvenirs in the form of shells,
bits of wood," illustrated cards, et'-.,
and those countless fancy articles
wrought by herself or her com
panions; and she has no parlor
wherein to entertain her friends—a
serious obstacle in the way of any
young woman, and one which serves
to drive her for amusement into the
streets. Where, then, is the future
Oalifomian to look for a capable wife
unless he imports her from the
East, and what is to become of
the girls of the present generation
if the boys all take unto them partners
from the more conventional sections
of the States? Possibly, when the
present boom dies out, and trade and
society drift imto a more settled con
dition, children and home will receive
more attention. Yet public sentiment
regulates matters, and so long
as bad housekeeping is treated as a
test and not an offense against good
■reeding, slip-shod ways are apt to
prevail.
Tlte Highest Split-re.
No woman is so happy as she who
has been wise or fortunate enough to
marry well, and who has a thought
ful husband and a sunshiny home.
No woman is so unfortunate as she
whom genius or necessity has created
a celebrity. The famous woman, it
is true, gets all of the glory, the im
mortality, but the domestic woman
gets all the love and the happiness.
While the one is uniformly con
tent, the other is uniformity, dis
satisfiied, and not needlessly so either,
The public is a remorseless tyrant,
and in order to comply with its mul
titudinous demands, she is constantly
-compelled to work and to endure.
Whatever she produces, whether it
be a picture, a statue or a book, must
be complete enough to bear the scru
teny of millions of critical eyes
which are to view it. In order to get
to the fop of the ladder of renown,
she is forced to climb step by step
with blistered feet and bleeding
hands, and if she would
hold fast to the laurel wreath
which she has snatched from
off the dizzy summit to which
she has attained, she must toil and
struggle more persistently than she
did while she was unknown. If at
first she is lucky enough to produce
something so dazzling that it lifts her
right out of obscurity into fame, all of
tier later efforts are likely to be meas
ured by and held back by the first
born of her brain. On the other hand,
if her early productions are not
striking how is she to catch the public
ear or eye, deaf and blind as
they both are to unrecognized
merit? Then, too, her original
ity is always a matter of dis
pute. She is always being re
minded by this critic or that, that
when she said so-and-so, she was
merely quoting Goethe, or Byron, or
•de Steel; and that some theory of
hers, and which she has hugged from
childhood or girlhood up, is a myth of
the imagination which Voitaire or
Darwin, or some later constellation,
has utterly exploded. If she paints a
portrait, no matter bow excellent it
may be, she is assured by some cavi
lerthat she has caught a false expres
sion. If she undertakes a lards ape she
s confronted by another, whose pro
vince it is to tear down and discourage
with the statement that she has
worked in a bad light and thus has
impaired the naturalness of her re
sults. If she creates a statue, she is
doomed to have it dissected as com
pletely and as unlovingly as the
corpse of the pauper carved up into
portions for the scientific digestion of
the anatomical class. If she writes a
book, the most ungrateful task of all,
she must, before she hurls her first
missile, prepare herself for a hot
and continuous attack, if not
for ultimate defeat, since to allow
nothing new to stand has become the
law of the critic of the day. There
fore, as the accepted decision that the
novelists of the past have exhausted
everything, and that in consequence
there is nothing left for the writers of
the future to do but to imitate, occu
pies the same relation to fiction, as
the theory of predestination does to
the plan of salvation, of wh t avail
is the ambitious _ and the
genius born now and in time to come ?
With these knotty probleins,however,
the happy woman with the good hus
band and the cheerful home is not puz
zled ; it is only the unhappy woman
with the glory and the im
mortality of genius, who must
fret herself to death over their
solution. Yet brilliant women, and
men, too, have written and are still
writing volemes upon the Highest
Sphere possible to women, and which
in the finest rhetoric and with the
clearest arguments are intended to
prove that cooking is drudgery, the
care of children slavery, and that a
career of fame (if she cannot have
both) is better for an enlightened
woman than a husband. But if the
humble man is acknowledged to be
happier than the ambitious man, does
it not follow that the humble woman
is infinitely happier than the ambi
tious woman, whose nerve is never
as strong and whose nature is always
far more sensitive than his with
whom in the arena of publicity she is
forced to jostle. Besides, even the
women who have craved for them
selves immortal places in the book of
fame, have found their truest and
best happiness in the companion
ships which have in the duality of
their experiences weighed them down
to the level of the oidinary woman.
Outside of the realm of poetry, Mrs.
Browning lived a charmed life with
the man who helped to make her
what she was while in her maturer
years. Madame De Stael, who flwas
of an intensely affectionate nature,
descended from the heights of politics
and literature to wed the obscure
young soldier who loved her, so that
when she died he died of grief soon
after her. But these and others of
the same character of brain power
were born to be great, and'
so could no more escape their
destinies than the stars can
escape their spheres. The masses of
women toilers, women artists, though,
are not so created ; and merely strug
gle because they are compelled to.
Yet the world condemns them for
rushing out into the battle of life, in
stead of quietly and contentedly re
maining at home; and does not realize
or understand that the warfare is a
necessity, and that bread is the only
reward ever sought or found. The
lot of sucli wemen is incomparably
hard. They have all of the hardships
and none of the celebrity which makes
even the most weary road to success
easy. Again there are a few, a very
few, women, who from choice aban
don private for public life, and who,
with no particular aptitude, but a
genuine love of work, find their
pleasures outside of themselves and
their homes. These women are of
ten amiable and useful members of
society, and as such are expert in
some branch of art or trade; but as
they are neither great nor domestic,
and as their husbands and their chil
dren (if they have any), needs must
suffer for their mistaken zeal, it
would seem that they, at least, had
not attained the Highest Sphere.
Who has? She, I think, who has
the opportunity and tfie ability to
make home a paradise, to keep a
husband a lover, and to rear up a
family of children to bless her and
benefit society.
The Hotel Westminster,
Which at the present time is in the
hands of the upholsterers, the fresco
painter and the seamstress, will when
it is completed be an ornament as
well as an accommodation to Los
Angeles. It contains 250 rooms ull
of which are light and well venti
lated ; and it is equipped«with every
modern improvement. The skylight
on the fourth floor sheds a mellow
light over the galleries below, while
the entries ani stairways are all
cheerful and accessible. The entire
house is being carpeted and furnished
in the most tasteful and elegant man
ner, and the dining-room and kitchen
is to be conducted upon the most ap
proved plan All of the chamber
maids aud waitresses have been care
fully selected, and are capable and
refined The chambermaids will dress
in uniform and wear caps and aprons.
The Heron family, of tne Hotel West
minster, San Francisco, are the pro
prietors. Mrs. Heron, the piesiding
genius, is a regal looking woman of rare
ability and fine manners. In her pre
vious business ventures she has been
so successful that, as soon as the Los
Angeles Hotel is fairly under way,
she has arranged to retire to her ranch
for the rest she so much needs. In
her absence, Mrs. Megqueer, the re
sponsible housekeeper, whose ser
vices the future guests of the house
will have reason to appreciate, will
preside. In traversing the many beau
tiful, but now empty, rooms of the
Hotel Westminster, it is pleasant to
contemplate the comfort they will af
ford the tourists destined to occupy
these 250 vacant rooms. At the low
est calculation 250 weary and dust
begrimmed travellers will not be
compelled to scramble for a resting
place. In the words of tbe Baron
Mount Gosline, it is indeed "A happy
thought."
Items of Fashion.
For walking gloves, from this time
to spring again, dog-skin will be
used; for visiting or evening gloves,
kids should be worn.
Large pink roßes, the Gabriel
Luizet and Marguerites and large
white Curitano roses are the fashion
able flowers of the season. They
should be worn high on the corsage.
Navy blue and crenison flannel skirts
are general for morning wear, over
some dark colored skirt. Some are
worn as Norfolk jackets, others as
Garibaldis, and a few have yokes.
Others are made with fiat pleats or
gathered and full fronts, with the
gathers put in for about an inch at the
LOS ANGEJ.ES HERALD: SUNDAY MORNING, JANUARY 29, 1888.
neckband on each side of the opening.
Some have high collars and are worn
without white collars and cuffs, while
others turn down or are cut out like a
man's coat and show a linen collar
and cravat. Si k m shi 11 of soft surah
for evening wear at home are highly
approved. Plush Norfolk jackets and
also black and dark-colored velvet and
velveteen are worn with thick day
skirts.
HOUSEHOLD decorations.
A double mantle can be made with
very little expense, and will add
greatly to the appearance of any
room. The lower portion of it is de
signed in the form of a closet and is
covered with a lambrequin; the up
per portion is like a smaller closet,
with two rows ol shelves run nearly,
parallel with tho space winch in the
middle is intended to accommodate a
vase and a decorated China plate. All
of the woodwork should b« stained to
represent walnut, cherry or ebony,
and the background of the entire
case should be of felt or plush. If
the woodwork is walnut the back
ground should he blue, but if it is
ebony, crimson or orange would be
the most striking combination.
When finished the shelves should be
covered with china, pictures, brack
ets, fans, etc.
A wall pocket to hold cards is made
of two pasteboard circles covered with
plush or velvet. Catch them together
at the sides, letting the edge of the
upper circle come a little below the
rim of the lower one, thus leaving a
crescent shaped opening, which is the
top of the pocket. Upon the outside
circle fasten a loose burg of artificial
flowers, and on one side catch the
coid or ribbon upon which the pocket
is suspended by a graceful bow with
long loops and ends.
Gems for the Cook.
SUGAR cake.
Two cups of sugar, three eggs, one
cup of butter, half a cup of sour milk,
two cups of flour, half a teaspoonful
of soda.
GALE CAKE.
Four eggs, one cup of sugar, half a
cup of butter, one teaspoonful of sale
ratus, three-quarters of a cup of sour
milk.
CORN BREAD.
One pound of corn meal, two eggs,
two teaspoongful of salt, two tea
spoonsful of sugar, one teaspoonful of
cream-tartar, one teaspoonful of bi
carbonate of soda, one large table
spoonful of lard. Mix with either
milk or water. Make stiff enough to
pour. Bake in a hot oven.
INDIAN I'CDDING.
One cup of sifted meal. Over it
pour one quart of boiling milk. Then
add one cup of molasses, one cup of
suet chopped fine and a little salt.
Stir the ingredients together, and then
add two cups of sliced sweet apple.
Pour into the pudding dish and add
one pint of cold milk. Bake live hours
in a slow oven.
SPICED APPLES,
iiight pounds of apples, pared.
Four pounds of sugar, one quart
oi vinegar, one ounce stick cinna
mon, half ounce cloves. Boil the
vinegar, sugar and spices together;
put in the apples when boiling and
let '.hem remain until tender. Then
take them out and put in a jar. Boil
down ti:e syrup until thick and pour
it o\er tho apples.
BAKED HATTER PUDDING.
One pint of cold milk, four table
spoonfuls of flour, two eggs and a lit
tle salt; stir the flour smooth into a
part of the milk, then put in two
eggs without beating, and then
beat them well with the mixed flour.'
Then add the remainder of the milk
and the salt, and when well stirred
together, pour into a buttered dish
and bake half an hour. When it is
done the whole top will have risen.
The above makes a padding for a
family of four and must be served
with a liquid sauc.
As far as tariff legislation by the
Fiftieth Congress is concerned, such
legislation is possible only through the
co-operation of the Republicans of the
Senate. Are they likely to approve
any measure which fullows the lines
indicated by President Cleveland's
message? Would Democrats like
Senator McPherson vote for such a
measure? Would it be possible for
the Democrats in the House to secure
from the few Western Republicans
who favor sweeping tarilf reductions,
ai.d from the scanty band of Inde
pendents, votes enough to put such a
measure through the House, against
the opposition of Mr. Randall and the
protectionist Democrats? Would any
measure which leaves the internal
revenue taxes untouched have any
chance with the Republicans? The
answer to all these questions is No!

The Actor.
Oh. man, with your wonderful dower!
Oh, woman, with genius aud grace!
You can leich the whole world by your
power,
If you are but worthy the place.
The stage is a force and a factor
fu molding the thought of the day,
If ouly the heart of the actor
Is high as the theme of the play.
No discourse, no sermon, can reach ub
Through feeling to reason j ike you;
No author can stir us or teach U6
With lessons so subtle aud true!
Tour words and your gestures obeying,
We ween or rejoice with your part,
And the player behind all Mb playing,
He ought to be great ai his art!
No matter what role you are giving,
No matter what skill you betray,
The evcry-day Ufa you are living
Is certain to color the play.
The thoughts we call secret and hidden
Are creatures of malice in fact—
They steal forth uuseen aud urbidden
And permeate motive and act.
The genius that shines like n ccmet
Kills only one part of God's plan;
So the lesson the world derives from it
Is marred by the life of the man.
Be worthy your work If you love It.
The king should be fit for the crown;
Stand high as your art, or above it,
Aud make us look up—and not down.
