'•Benedick, the raarriijd man,” ever ycaliy the master of his own house? “ A pretty question that to put to an Amer­ ican sovereignl” says some “head of a family” who considers himself the Al­ pha. and Omega of the home depart­ ment. “Of course, there are millions of married men. who are masters of their own bouses, and of that grand sum total I am an Integral part.” Bravely retorted. But assertion is not argument. That millions of Bene­ dicks Mine themselves to be absolute under their own roof-trees, the Ledger docs not doubt; but nevertheless the truth is that, as a rule, women reign. The majority of “ladies paramount” govern gently, so gently indeed that the yoke is unfelt. Xantippc was a fool as well as a termagant She could have twisted Socrates-round her finger with much less trouble than slio took to cow his “better part af man.” , There is a petticoat government or smiles, another petticoat government of tears, and another of reason.

Va., “the census enumerator for Moundsville, near where I live, must have found ubout as wonderful a domestic history as any enumerator will run against elsewhere in this coun­ try. I refer to a family by the name of Brandon. The fathe r'o f that family, Charles Brandon, died when ho was ninety-six years old, but his youngest child was then less than a year old. He died just as the civil war broke out from a broken heart, his wife having refused to live with him any longer and brought suit for divorce against him. He had: a t that time thir.tv-five living chil­ dren, and had been married three times. , “JJis first wife, bore him two children. His second’ wife died after hearing him eighteen, At the age of seventy-five he married tSarah Barker, she being six­ teen and the youngest of sixteen chil­ dren. . She lived with him twenty-one years, bearing him fifteen children, and then left him, taking her year-old baby with her, and sued for- divorce, on the grounds of •incompatibility of temper. Brandon was still hale and ' liearty, but the desertion of his wife broke him down, and he died within a month after I she left him.

It is a question if in this or any other country an in­ stance can be found where one fam­ ily ejvcr before contributed seventeen sons to their country’s, service. There were two Charleses and two ■Johns among these brothers. The names of the other thirteen were Simeon, Evans, Peter, Josephus, Hiram, James,- Van Burert, Jacob,/ Abraham, Alexander, !

There is a story of a French' priest Of the olden time which neatly illustrates the general principle here set forth, The good father fancied that the law luid down, by St. Paul touching the obedience of wives to husbands was obligatory on the former, and that to contravene it was a heinous sin. In order to encourage its observ- •auce ho one day offered to give his en­ tire-crop of pease, a very 'one, to any married man among his parishioners who could prove that ho was not under subjection to his spouse. Scores of ap­ plicants for the prize appeared, hut they all broke down under the priest’s searching cross-examinations. At length, however, a burly, surly laborer, who was admitted by every­ body to bo a thoroughgoing domestic tyrant, laid claim to the reward, and made out his claim to the satisfaction •of the cure. “Well,” said the good father, “I am glad to know that I have one. man in my congregation who is master in his -own house. Call to-morrow for, yoar pease.” The next day the fellow went to the priest’s house with a small sack, which he began to fill. “That’s too small,” observed the priest, “have you not a larger ono?” “Well, yes, I have,” replied the peas­ ant, sulkily, “but you see my wife wouldn’t let mo bring it.” “Aha,” cried the cure, "let my pease alone—lot my pease alone; you're only a. slave like the rest!”—N. Y. Ledger. A fter Many Days, “I’ll have to charge you for that boy, madam,” said the conductor of a west­ bound train the other day, as he punched the ticket of a sharp-featured woman of middle age and held out his hand for the additional fare. “What for?” she asked. “He’s more than five years old. He looks as if he was nearer fifteen.” “Ain't you Jack Sathpleten, that used to live down in Strcator about eight yenrs ago?” inquired the woman, eyeing him keenly. “ Yes. What of It?” “Used to buy your butter and milk of , Widdcr James?’ “I believe I did.” . • “Pm the Widder .Tames.' Recollect the last jar of butter yon got of me— the olic you were going to pay for in­ side of ten days?” “Why—Mrs. James, didn’t—didn’t I - - - ” - ■ “That jar of butter, Mr. Samplcton, hasn’t been paid fur yet, and this boy lacked about a month of bein’ five year old when yon got it, Does he go?” “He goes, madam,” said the conduct­ or, as he passed on with a sickly smile. “The bov is probably large for his age,”—Chicago Tribune. •--Angelina-—“Do you see tha t hand­ some, inkldle-agCd man over there?” Belinda—“Yes, Who is be?” Ange- lina—’TIe lives by bis pen.” Belinda— “Ahl A poet?” Angelina—“No; a ■pork-pncker.l'—America, served in the Mexican war. The teen brothers were all in Ohio and In diana regiments. - Two of them, ouc of the Johns and one of the Charleses, were sons of the third Mrs. Brandon. They _\vere, both taken 1 prisoners at the battle gf Chiclcaniauga and placed in Andersonvillo prison. John’died in the prison. Charles was there twenty-one months when he escaped. All the rest of the sons were children of the second wife. They were in every important battle of the war, and ail lived to get home when the war was over '.except Peter, wlio was killed at Shiloh. These boys all come of good fighting stock, -for their father was a famous In­ dian fighter himself, a veteran of the war. of 1812 and tho Mexican war When Western Pennsylvania was the frontier,, and the Indian fighter was the most important and indispensable per­ son in the settlements, Charles Bran­ don, according to all tradition, was one of the best and most daring of all the active foes of the red men. His father was killed by Indians -when Charles was' only three years old. Ho himself was made a prisoner and lived with the Indians twelve years, hating them more tho longer he was with them. At the ago of fifteen he escaped, and, after learning his mother tongue, spent all his time, until they were driven away to more remote settlements, in hunting and killing Indians. He was fifty-one years of age when the war of 1812 broke out, and he was one of the first to join the American army, and was in it When peace was de­ clared. He was seventy-four when be enlisted in the Mexican war. The third wife of this virile old fight­ er is living a t Moundsville, hale and hearty a t the age of sixty-seven.

Ills H isto ry Chronicled by a Soldier Who W ore th e 'O ra y . I enlisted as a private in the Second Louisiana Volunteers in 1801, My first real soldiering was on the Yorktown Peninsula- While there or a t Suffolk (I forget which), there strolled into camp ft young boy, not over ten or twelve years of age, who attached him­ self to one of the neighboring regi­ ments. Who he was, his name, or where he came from, I can not now re­ call. lie Was looked upon as No Man’s child, and as such found genial fellow­ ship among the soldiers. 1 soon realized that he was a cosmo­ politan and a t home anywhere, for 1 next saw him the pet of the First South Carolina Volunteers, How Jong lie staid with them I can not say. I t was nearly a year before I saw him again. His small form and boyish face were a great contrast to the men among whom he mingled. 1 remember theh bow odd It seemed to sec that child in a camp, but he was truly “the child of the regi­ m en t” After we had fallen back to Rich­ mond, and ’after those terrible seven days’ of buttle, the army was reorgan­ ized, and the troops brigaded by states, so I lost sight of our Carolina neighbors and also the hoy. At the second Manassas, on the 20th of August, 1802, our brigade (Stark's-^ poor fellow, lie fell at fijharpsburg) was lying in the woods nearly opposite that “terrible deep cut.” When the drip­ ping, spattering fire of the Yankee skirmishers drove in our out-loplcers (us “old Jack” didn’t have a counter skir­ mish line) the cry “Forward” rang along our lines and we advanced and ran almost into the Yankees, who, giv­ ing us a deadly volley, fell back rapidly across a field and into the woods be­ yond, where a battery, supported by a swarm of troops, was posted. Nothing checked us. Under a withering fire of minics and canister we pressed on, Bushrod Johnston riding ahead, with his sword run through, his hat, waving us onuntil.we waved him out of our lino of fire by yelling to him toeleur the way. : When wo arrived within about n>hun­ dred yards of the battery the line was halted, and under this raking fire the alignment was corrected and the men “right dressed" to be shot down. I have thought often that that com­ mand of “halt” might have been heroic, 'but it certainly “was not war;" how­ ever, not a man faltered. Again for­ ward, and we drove straight for the guns. Just then I felt a thud, a sting, a twist around and fclL A minie had struck my pocket Bible edgewise, and passing .nearly through the .New Testa­ ment part, dug .a trench across my left side into the flesh. With the blood spurting from my side I started ward, while our went up and over the battery, scatter­ ing its supports like chaff. As I struggled bade over the field,the dead and wounded, blue and gray alike, lying all around, I heard a great rum­ bling on my left and noticed that our guns were plunging to the front under lash and shout to seize the hills whence to pour shot into the now retreating foe. I can see them now tumbling, bouncing,' surging to gain the front What else did I see? So close I could almost reach, him, the little hoy sitting on the limber of one of the pieces, ids eyes aflame, his hat waving, his treble voice shoutingex- citcdly and liis whole being lit up and aglow with ■ the terrible magnetism of battle—cheering on the line.V' I have never seen him since. He pass­ ed on and was lost in the cloud and smoke of the field, but the memory of that inspiring scene will never fade.— Detroit Free Press. IN WOMAN’S BEHALF. A PLEA FOR REFORM. T h e E ng lish an d Am erican Hyttemn o f T h y ■lcnl Culture Compared. Directly to English women does the sport-loving American girl owe all her privileges and possibilities on the ten­ nis court, on horseback or wherever she finds those opportunities for the honest physical exercise she now en­ joys. The English woman was the first of her sex to go out of doors for a larger half of her day’s pleasure; and looking on tho sports practiced by her brother, and seeing they were gopd, she promptly adapted them, with few mod­ ifications, to her owp uses, and commu­ nicated these pleasing occupations to her trans-atlantic. sisters. She f t was who overcame all prejudice against femininity competing against the mas- c'lline element in the open field, and she it was who held up to ns the inspiring example of woman triumphant in the hunting field, a t tennis, or wherever she might choose to force her way, American girls have largely profited by the excellent example set them, and so far are no disgrace to their teaching. We have gone forth gravely to battle a t tennis, in the very face of our preju­ diced papas; we have set at naught the remonstrances of our old time mammas, and wo have actually learned to play not very badly,- in mixed double, to •sit our horses properly, and to—well, to go deeply in .for gymnastics.' That last is the truthful but unfortu­ nate-admission which throws American women at once out of the race with the big-limbed, broad-should* r .id British maidens and clean into the shade of in- , , . ,, ,,feriority beside them in tlie practice-of boys brave fellows, , rt and simplo, Gymnastics and this everlasting cry for. physical rear- REMINDERS OF THE WAR. C a . pt . J ack H aynes , who served in three wars and is now one hundred and three years of a geK Has been made a member of Frank I*, lllair Post, Grand Army of the Republic, of St. Louis, and Is doubtless the- oldest member of the organization. He was in the war of 1812 and the Mcxicun war, and during th e ' late unpleasantness, when over seventy, was the engineer of a gun­ boat on the Mississippi. D urino the war of the rebellion near­ ly all the battles were fought imtimber- ed country. This was not the case at Petersburg. There the commanders of the opposing forces saw each other’s manoeuvers and all the brilliant pyro­ technics of the assault and defense. Standing within the range of the enemy’s fire, os he often did, Gen. Rob­ ert E. Lee viewed the wonderful scene of that battle. Droppinghls field glasses he turned toGcU. Hampton and said: “It is well that tliiB is so terrible, or wo might grow too fond of it.” G en . W adk H ampton , of South Caro­ lina, was one of the southerners who “walked home” after the great race be­ tween Henry and Eclipse, over the Union course on Long Island, thirty- five years ago, and .has just divulged why Henry happened to lose the race. I t was all on account of lobster salad. CoL Johnson, who trained and managed Henry, ate what he called “a mess of salad” on the night previous to the race, and he did not recover from his fit of indigestion next day in time to give his jockey needed instructions. Gen. Hamp­ ton has never liked lobster salad him­ self from that day to this. A braham L incoln was in no sense fanatical. But he believed in keeping the Sabbath as a day of rest. During the war he issued an order that breathed the purest Christian sentiment as well as the loftiest patriotism. In this lie said: “The importance to man and besst of the prescribed weekly rest, the sacred rights of Christian soldiers, a be­ coming deference to the best sentiment of a Christian people and a duo regard for the Divine will, demand that Sun­ day labor in tho army and navy be re­ duced to the measure of strict ncccs- ity.” No men ever more appreciated such an order than the soldiers of the old Union army. “I remember a punishment,” said Capt. W. J. Kerclicval, “that Gen. Lew Wallace meted out to two soldiers who liad shot a cow, in the face of orders not to shoot stock. I t was in warm weather, and putting them under guard, they were given branches cut from trees and told to take tu rn about every two hours keeping tlie flies off the Carcass. They were kept a t this nearly three days, most of the time being compelled to hold the nose with one hand while agitating the fly brash with the other. The sight waa a very laughable affair to all bu t the sufferers, and the exam- culture is ut the very root of the rca- son why we have not kept pace with the English woman. In fact one is in­ clined to wish'that for a time, and just by way of experiment, all the gymna­ siums-could be closed to aspiring tight­ rope walkers and dumb-bell swingers. What would be the result? Why,, girls and women having hud a taste of exer­ cise, would be forced out of doors into the very games that now engage the at­ tention of those hardy foreigners, and in which our girls hold little or no part. -Nowadays in America, the cry forever going up to women is to try physical culture, a t the Turkish bath and iu the gynnsium, and all for old vanity’s, and little enough for good health’s sake. At tlie women’s colleges huge gymnasiums .are erected for the use of students who. even against tlieir will, must daily ex­ ercise, march, .counter-march, and go through trying muscle-requiring evolu­ tions—all well enough in a way, but not nearly so good a plan as that fol­ lowed by tho English girl student, .who holds- little fuith in - gymnastics, hut throws her whole, soul into her beloved out-door games. She doesn't perhaps, put a- half­ penny’s worth .of confidence in her abil­ ity to swing a clumsy Indian club, blit she can “hock" and “dribble,” can skate, swim, row, defend her wicket sturdily, and whacks her tennis balls soundly. She knows awfully little about the science of physical culture, but slio talks learnedly of hookey, cricket and golf, plays them skillfully, too, and earns a pound of benefit from ono hour of her out-door gaming, where we- gain au ounce of our days of in-door gym­ nastics. If the heads of colleges, academics and big schools for girls desire to keep their charges healthy and wise they should provide-a play-ground and teach the students that exercise in the fresh, open, cold, moist, dry or- warm air is the one thing profitable to tlieir physi­ cal well-being. Don’t say that this ex­ ertion means pink cheeks, bright eyes, red lips, rounded curves and a ll’that undignified pandering to vanity so com­ mon to the advocates of feminine ath­ letics. But tell them tlie results of this out-door energy means that a splendid field of/pleasure is being opened, and after some four or five hours in the air, deeper sleep, clearer brains and better appetites will be the reward. Just suppose, instead of drilling hun­ dreds of Vassar and Wcllcsly students in calisthenics, those same girls could be taught to play a good game of hockey on the ample college grounds, when the air is cold with winter’s chill and ten­ nis hardly seems in season? Why, the outcome would be tha t in p. short time the gymnasium would stand deserted, while students fotight for goals, rush­ ing, cheering, thumping and poking with their long crooked sticks, pretty much as in the manner with a football team iti training. Give the girls exer­ cises a t which they can scream and hit and dash and romp and work off animal Bpirits, as is the way with boys, and afterwards they will make better stu­ dents for it, better tennis players, bet­ ter riders, and stronger, finer, bigger, handsomer women, if this latter virtue can be more highly developed.—Agnes Crofton, in Week’s Sport. WOMEN IN JOURNALISM. Tho Newipii per W rite r—What. She H at to ' Ke and Do to Win BucciMt, Tho following extract is from one of tlie cleverest papers read at the recent meeting of the Pacific Coast Woman’* Press association by Miss Eliza d . Keith: Young women as newspaper writers may be broadly classified as either re- porters or space writers, The latter term includes correspondents and all those who prepare special articles for the big Sunday editions or the once-st- week papers. All newspaper women are not re­ porters, although the general public seem to think so. Nor is every reporter a perpetual pencil and an ani­ mated note-book. Neither is every women reporter in search of purely social items. There are other objects of interest besides dressing-room gossip and back-stairs information. Awoman repo tor, aside from societyduties, is as­ signed generally to details intimately connected with -subjects of special in- ’ tcrest to women. This covers the fields of philanthropy, education, charity and sanitary ' reform. Dramatic critics, fusilion writers and household* econo- mists occupy special fields of tlieir own. Neither is a writer always dependent upon her friends for her ideas. It is barely possible that she may be able to think for herself. There are authors who write only when they feel like it, who sit quietly a t home and wait for inspiration. Rut the newspaper woman is none of these. Her work is arduous, and rendered still more so > by the everlasting element of hurry. To succeed,, the young woman in journalism most be in good health, with’ her; nerves and her temper 1 well under control. She requires considera­ ble personal magnetism and tlie ability to draw people out. She had better abandon the field a t onee; unless she can think on her feet and never loseher " presence of mind. She must be able to' change all her plans a t a moment’s no­ tice. She must be well educated, well informed on current topics, and possess a discriminating sense of wliat will write up well, and of what ought not, as well as wliat ought to be written. Her English must be terse and vigor- ous, her words well cliosen, her facts .presented in a striking, dramatic, and irresistible manner. To be able to write here, or there or anywhere, stand­ ing or sitting, in the midst of noise and confusion—that is part of her life. She must have good powers to be able to arrest the flight of time, tp annihilate space, and to be in two places at onec. Although perfectly ' exliousted by a day’s travel in her searcli for informa­ tion, site must get her facts into shape before her story becomes dead matter. She must have reserve force suflicient for a rally of ideas, to be able to work - a t high pressure, and toward the last to double her usual rate of speed, while the messenger hoy from the office sits .on the hayrack in the hall, waiting for Tier copy and tvliistlcs ns he waits. Not a pang must she feel when the children of her bruin are sent but into tho w-orld maimed or mangled by tho editor. Whole paragraphs will bo cut. out and stickfuls written in by some one who docs not comprehend the scope of her article and only edits the copy according to the space a t command. The funny man will put absurd head­ lines on her carefully written article but she must never expostulate, never get angry. She must not lose heart at the hypoc­ risy which confronts her and must learn to smile when -Indies who have given her their views on certain, subjects, with the understanding that it is for publication, afterward deny all knowl­ edge of the purpose of their conversa­ tion. —For one dozen gems ui teaspeonfwi of s a lt Deaf - 4(1 the milk and aalt to I gradually ip to ib a flour. « m pans and bake tweil N„ Y.

The owners of the dispensaries appear averse to receiving women stu­ dents, and none have gained admission to any establishment in St. Petersburg. I n Germany more than 130,000 mar­ ried women work in shops and factor­ ies. T he oldest woman minister in the United States is Rev, Lydia Sexton, who has been preaching for forty-two years in various portions of the country.
