SEEKING NEW PLAYS AND METHODS.

A NEW BATHING CAP.The swimming girl has a new cap. It has

a decided air of picturesqueness, but utility,while it is not overlooked, is not glaringlyapparent in Its construction. It might becalled the evolution of a cap, with homeli-ness removed, and quaint coloring introducedto give effective finish to one of the essentialsin the summer girl's wardrobe, which she

selects with as much effort to procure afashionable effect, as she chooses her mostdaintily designed ball gown. This new hator cap Is waterproof and of Bilk. The Per-sian effects, which are in evidence in fash-ions generally, are the most popular forthese bathing caps. The moat exclusive aresilk, but pretty colorings in sateen are lessexpensive. The crown is loose, with a draw-ing string, which may be easily drawn tightto warn old Neptune that his efforts to wet,and scatter in wild disorder, the locks of thefair bather, will be unavailing. Over thefront, a peak serves to shade the face andreflect a becoming roseate coloring, adding asmartness to the cap unclaimed by any of itspredecessors.

A few years ago the Russian merchantmarine consisted of a few steamers andabout 200 Finnish sailing ships in the Bal-tic wool trade; to-day more than 3,050steamships (including river steamers)are flying the Russian flag.

Till They Are Abolished WomanCannot Be Emancipated.

"When woman is freed from the degradingburden of domestic servitude, then it will bepossible to Judge of her Intelligence and fit-ness for civic duties." Thus declared Mme.Schmahl, editor of the Avant Courier, whoseJournal is making a campaign for the abol-ishment of the kitchen from all households.

"When our houses," continued Mme.Schmahl, "are delivered from the bad odorsof the fat and dirt of the kitchens, then muchof the superstitious disorder of the modernhomes, which is due to the ignorance ofwomen, will disappear. Then will domesticexistence be far more civilized and far moteagreeable."

Mme. Schmahl insists that France is thenatural country to take the lead In abolishingindividual kitchens, "because French womenalready have put all washing and baking outof the house and have made a beginlng in thesame course regarding cooking."

"Do not many persona in Paris now havetheir roasts of beef and roast fowls preparedat a regular establishment and brought tothe house at the time of eating?" asked Mme.Schmahl in reply to her assertion. "This Isonly the beginning. The kitchen must go be-fore women can meet the responsibilities ofthe twentieth century. The kitchen does notallow them to specialize according to theirtastes and aptitudes. The kitchen must soonJoin the superseded spinning wheel.

"There is a society just formed in Londonwhich distributes complete meals thrice a dayto the house of each member. Table linen is 'Included, and the price is only 3 shillings aday for each person. The same experimenthas been tried in Berlin and several Americancities, and in most cases has met with un-

varying success. Therefore the time has cometo make a general appeal to all women toemancipate themselves from the old-fashioneddrudgery and thus preserve the sanctity ofthe home and the fireside.

"This Is to be done by the women of differ-ent neighborhoods taking a firm stand thatdomestic happiness does not depend upon thewashing of dishes at home and by agreeingto patronize a common restaurant. They willfind that the restaurant will improve in char-acter and in the quality of food served asthis enlightened custom gets deeper rooted.

"That the majority of modern householdswould desire such an arrangement I do notbelieve there is any doubt. They certainlydo,, because the woman of the present day isnot a good cook nor a good housekeeper.Nowadays success in these lines requiresspecialization. Moat women of to-day whomust he mothers must be the trainers oftheir children as well. With their minds sotaken up with maternal and household dutiesthey are unable to participate Intelligently inpublic affairs. They must specialize or theywill make sorry failures in civic affairs.Therefore we must abolish the kitchen or failin the far more Important things."

Mme. Schmahl's contention is supported byseveral women who are prominent as reform-ers. She is busy preparing an imitation ofthe London society for Paris, and she claimsthat several thousand French kitchen martyrs

have already signified their intention of join-ing.

The French husband has not yet pronouncedhis opinion of the scheme.

CERTIFICATION OF STUDENTSCollegiate Alumnae Ass'n Will Offi-

cially Vouch for QualifiedWomen,

In view of the fact that many Americanwomen have had privileges in foreign uni-versities for which they were not fitted, andthat, consequently, the standing of properlyprepared American women students has suf-fered, the Association of Collegiate Alum-nae has issued the following notice:

"The Association of Collegiate Alumnaedesires to aid trained women in gaining op-portunity for study abroad, and to this endhas prepared (1) a certificate with the sealof the association, testifying to the charac-ter and high scholarly aims of the applicant,and (2) a German circular letter explainingthe standards and aims of the association.It is believed that the presentation of thesedocuments, together with the college diplo-ma, will definitely aid the student in ob-taining admittance to lectures and otheracademic privileges, and it is hoped that allgraduates intending to study abroad willavail themselves of the good offices of theassociation by obtaining certificates."

This notice is signed by Margeret E. Malt-by, Ph. D., of Barnard College, as chairmanof a council made up from the association,and an advisory council of professors andpersons interested in higher education, whichexamines the record of any woman graduateof any American college, or of any advancedwoman student, and determines whether itIs of the standard generally recognized foradmission to foreign universities.
