A -PLEA FOR MOTHERS.
Am Amendment Offered to the Advice of
a Woman Lecturer.
A few-evenings ago a Boston woman
journalist, who writes the essays about
bookmarks, gluten bread, dress reform
corsets and the like for the woman's
eolumn of a Sunday paper, read a lecture to a parlor full of Harlem women.
Her subject was “How to Bring Up
Children.” ae
One “thing that she insisted on was
fhat children should be taught to “do
things,” to be prepared for emergencies.
-_ “For example,” said she, “I would
teach a child what to doin case of a
fainting fit. I say to my girls:
« ‘Girls, . am not much of a ‘hand at
fainting, but if 1 do take a notion to
faint some day when you are about, get
me some water. Pour it on my head
and face. Cold water, girls, not hot
water.”
“[m sure that if the unexpected
comes, and . fall ina fainting fit some
fine morning, the girls, if they happen
to-be near, will know what to do and .
will do it promptly.” i
“May . interrupt you for a moment?”
asked a little brown haired woman, who
looked to be about fifty.
“Why, certainly,” answered the lecturcr.
“Well, what . wish to do,” said the:
brown haired woman, “is to take issue
with you on this proposition of yours
that it is the proper thing to instruct
children what to do to their mothers
when they faint. On other points I have
nothing to say. Maybe you are right in
the general proposition that children
should be taught to do things, but as to
this matter . wish to utter a warning
word, to offer an amendment, so to
speak.
“1 used to think as you do. I remember as well as can be how . used to tell
my girls to do the very thing that you .
gay you told yours todo, I thought as

you do, that it would be a shame to
leave any person who should faint io
the presence of my girls go withont
proper care. So I used to say: *‘Remem
ber, girls, to use water. That's th
thing when a baby faints.’
**Well, one day some one came to my
-house and told me that a little boy Lac
been hurt in the next yard. I was almost.ill at the time, but just the same . !
rushed out to the scene. The little chay
was badly hurt, and it tiok me quit
awhile to get him in such a way that !
could safely leave him. But the time
came at last, and . started for homie.
“When I was within about a rod ot
my own house . grew dizzy and saw
stars and then fell in a heap in the
gutter.
“A couple of Irishmen picked me up
each taking an arm, and dragged m
up my front steps and laid me out ot
the piazza. Then they rang the ‘bell
and when my daughter Isabelle came t
the door one of them pointed at me and
del Monte management.

said:
“Good avenin, miss, an is that yer
mother there, lyin all in a hape dead
fainted away?
“Isabelle gave one look and then
called out to her two sisters, ‘Quick.
girls, ma’s fainted.’
“ ‘After that the deluge.’ Yes, that
tells the story. Isabelle got the ice
pitcher, Mary a foot tub and Kate a ten
quart tin pail. 1! consider it almost a
miracle that I'm alive today.
“Of course I'm telling al] this from
hearsay. I didn’t knuw anything frora
the time that . fainted until 1 heard
Kate frantically crying out: ‘Water!
More water! Quick, Isabelle, more water! and just after that one of the Irishmen saying, ‘Be aisy, darlint, or ye'll be
after drownin yer ould mother?
“Wet! Well, that doesn't begin to téll
the story. 1 was soaked, and great
streams of water were running off the
piazza and down the stairs.

“Then . got down on my knees and
wrung out my skirts as well as I could
and while . was in that position I eould
hardly keep myself from saying, ‘Oh
Lord, 1 thank thee that they didn’t call
out the fire department.’
“Now, I've taken up lots of your time.
but . wished to make an amendment to
your proposition. What 1 would pro
pose is that every mother save her own
self from the danger of drowning by
saying to her girls when she bids them
pour water,on ‘fainters,’*Be eure m™)

An old lady is said to have been asked
how to tell good indigo. ‘Powder the

water, and if it is good it will either

It was the same with Aunt Charity’s
