HONORS WON BY WOMEN
FIRST IN LAW, IN MEDICINE AND
IN SPECIAL SCHOLARSHIP
A Legal Valedictorian Who Does Not
Intend to Practice—Dr. Grace Ititehio’»
Attainments—Uccord of Two P.riglit
Girls at Oxford.
I his is h record rtiitkiny uifo for wom-
an. All sorts of bright and beautiful
girls are coming to the front and dem-
onstrating their right to existence on
other grounds than those of social ac-
complishments or domestic ability. They
have not ceased to shine in society or
to queen it over the home, but they have
widened the horizon of their activities
and are now recognized authorities on
important subjects outside those once
classed as distinctively belonging to
woman’s domain.
“Pretty, piquant and lovable” are the
complimentary terms applied to the
valedictorian of the first woman’s law
class in '‘the world.
She recently received
her degree from the
University of New
York, and in connec-
tion with her com-
panions was highly
MISS RITCHIE,

by Judge Noah
Davis, who de-
Srh
dared that he

amined a class ’ '
that gave such * ’ ;5 1‘
ready answers, mrs. sittro.
and tliat he learned more law at the
graduating exercises than if he had
staid in his office a year. Evidently
the knightly courtesy for which Judge
Davis lias long been distinguished suf-
fers nothing from the lapse of years. His
words of praise, however, are less re-
markable than the announcement of the
fair valedictorian that, having won all
the glory of an exacting course, she
doesn’t intend to practice!
She is the wife of Mr. Theodore Sutro,
a young attorney of New York city, and
that her honeymoon has not ended after
five years of matrimony is evidenced by
her recent utterances. Said she the other
day: “I never intend or want to be a
lawyer. I desire to be familiar with that
which means so much to my husband,
that I may be able to converse with him
and his friends intelligently. I know 1
am better fitted for the duties of a wife
for having studied law and trained some-
what my intellectual faculties. Our
union is a partnership, and it seems ds if
companionship was the real basis of a
happy marriage.”
“M. D. C. M.,” otherwise “doctor of
medicine and master of surgery,” is the
title recently won by Miss Octavia
Grace Ritchie at Bishop’s college, Mon-
treal. Mias Ritchie is tho first woman
i:i tin1 province to attain this distinction,
■•he is the youngest daughter of the late
L’iionms \V. Ritchie, Q. C., and her
school career from girlhood up has been

Idle frequently quoted “1 do not pin
faith upon your sleeve," is traced in
itinn iit to feudal times, when the par-
ans of a leader used to wear his badge
Hied upon their sleeves. Sometimes
•«e badges were changed for specific
rposes, and persons leained to doubt,
nee the phrase, “You wear the badge,

A German Gaby's Adventure.
A party of German peasants set out
for the christening of a, new baby, the
baby being swaddled and wrapped in
the usual manner. The way was long
to the church and the weather was cold;
indeed, snow lay on the ground. The
anxiety of the christening over the
whole party — parents, sponsors and
friends—adjourned to the village inn
to warm and cheer themselves with
schnaps, or what the Londoner terms,
“a drop of something short." They then
set oil on their return home lightly and
gayly, and their hearts being merry
within them they essayed a snatch ox-
two of song and a step or two of dance.
Home was at length reached, and the
interesting christened bundle was laid
on tlie table. The whole part y—parents,
sponsors and friends—stared agape and
in silence; there was the pillow, the
ribbons and the bows all complete, but
where was the baby?
Some one ventured to raise the bundle;
it was quite limp and empty! Baby was
gone! Back the whole party hurried on
its lonely track, and baby was found
asleep in the snow, about midway be-
tween the church and the village. Ho
was a sturdy child, and the story run3
that he escaped with a violent sneeze or
two, which, it is said, tho anxious pa-
rents strove to allay by popping him
into the oven. There can be no doubt
that tho German child tliat could sur-
vive the pillow, and the snow, and the
oven must have been sturdy indeed.—
Strand Magazine.
Electricity in Europe.
Instead of leading the van, we are
from ten to fifteen years behind Europe.
Even in our own field of electrical meth-
ods, as a prominent American electrician
assured me in Paris, we are now five
years behind the continent. He declared
that the difficulties our American cor-
porations still complain about, when
asked to bury their telegraph, telephone
and lighting wires, were all met and
vanquished in Europe several years ago,
and that our fellow countrymen insist
upon remaining in a state of invincible
ignorance rather than learn anything
from tho technical and scientific achieve-
ments of Europe.
But perhaps he stated the case too
strongly. Doubtless we shall in time
learn to be a-hamed when wo come to a
realizing sense of the fact that the one
city of Paris has at its command a larger
and more brilliant array of engineering
and architectural talent than all the im-
portant cities of the United States taken
together can show, and that many a
small European town is better supplied
in tills respect than many a large Amer-
ican city. — Dr. Albert Shaw in Century.
TUv Way an Artist lUuisons.
Hero is ;i characteristic: story about
the great Parisian man milliner: A lady
of high position once ventured to r« tuou-
strate with the great man because lie
bad charged her C'1'20 for a ball dress.
“The material,” she said, “could be
bought for twenty pounds, ami surely
the work of making up would be well
paid with five pounds more.”
“Madam,” replied the milliner, in his
loftiest manner, "go to M. Meissonier,
the painter, and say to him, ‘Hero is a
canvas, value a shilling, and here are
colors, value four shillings. Paint me a
picture with these colors on that canvas
and I will pay you one ami threepence.1
What will he say? He will say, ‘Mad-
am. that is no payment for an artist.’
1 say more. 1 say, if you think my
terms too high, pay me nothing and
keep the robe. Art does not descend to
the pettiness of the higgler.”—London

Over O110 Hundred and Fifty Years Old.
A man resides at David, in the prov-
ince of Chiriqui. Isthmus of Panama,
who is one hundred and fifty-one years
old. according to his own statement, but
his neighbors claim tliat he is older, and
that a document is in existence which
he signed 11? years ago. He works hard
every day on his coffee plantation, and
is in excellent health.—Philadelphia
Ledger.
Swimming is a tonic and bracing ex-
ercise. It assists in tho development of
the muscular system, and exerts a favor-
able influence on tiie bodily functions,
such as digestion, nutrition, respiration,
circulation and innervation. It is ex-
cellent in getting the body, in what
sporting men call "condition.” Aside
from the physical advantages, swimming
gives moral courage.

The Military and Civil Record of the
Late General IL F. Kelley.
The recent death of Major General B.
F. Kelley vividly recalls the first three
months of the civil war, for at that time
it seemed that lie was the coming great
general, and many continued to believe
tliat but for his severe wounds and con-
sequent ill health be would have ranked
among the first. He commanded at
Philippi, Vn., the first regular engage-
ment, succeeded in all his undertakings
in that section and never lost a battle.
He was born April b>, 1807, in New
Hampton, N. H.. and in 182(1 joined his
brother at Wheeling. Va. He took a
course at a mill- /.• .

regiment May-'-general n. y. kki.ley.
1801, and at the
age of fifty-four entered at ninv on a
very active campaign. Jure ;> he drove
the (,'otifederates from Philippi, gaining
what was then called a "brilliant vic-
tory,” but the report closed with the
statement that lie was “m< irtally wound-
ed.'' He partially recovered, however,
and Oct."'?. 1801. gained the battle of
Romney.
Thereafter he held command of the De-
partment of Harper's Ferry and West
Virginia in turn, but was generally un-
able to do more than direct from head-
quarters. His plans, however, were
nearly always successful. After the war
ho held various offices, but for several
years past had been in retirement at bis
home near Oakland, Md. He was the
first military superintendent of the Hot
Springs, Ark., reservation, and organized
tho local government there and later was
connected with the pension office.
Treatment ot /ace 'loirs.
A hairy mole which is still growing
should be removed at once, oven at the
risk of some injury to tie* skin. It is*
now probably no more than a plexus of
capillary vessels, with only a small sup-
ply of connective tissue There is also a
likelihood that it has not yet involved
the skin. If this be it - condition, the
skin over the tumor may be reflected in
(k ps, ami the tumor it-*If 1 trangnlated

The flaps should then In* replaced, and
the result will be a minimum of cicatrix
