"When that boy came to our school three yearsago," Mrs. Fisher said to a reporter whom she wastelling of the Incident, "he was a rough, unwashed,
most unattractive little specimen. He was the childof newly arrived immigrants, and he looked likepoor material. But directly his class took up out-of-door* nature study he began to wake up. He
was always eager to go out Into the park, he loves
"Do you?" she answered
A Joyous Task to 'Primary Pupils in
Public School 170.
The bit,- p-jblic school at 111th street and Lenox
avenue is fortunately situated. Only some open
lots lie between It and the north end of rentralPark, part of the park which is wildest andfreest and most like the real woods. ItIs probably
because of this that Public School 170 has gone In
for nature study with a vim that few other schoolsapproach.
Unfortunate schools In the lower part of the city
have to confine their wp/k In this line to the ex-amination of flowers and bits of moss, aiid so for'-h,
sent them by philanthropic individuals. Their raretrips to the country involve long streetcar rides,
painfully expensive to children of little means. AtPublic School 170 they have only to cross the street
in order to carry out the famous plan of Bqueers,
of Dotheboys Hall—that of learning to spell botany
and then going out and doing It.Moreover, It is a great thing to have a view of
•he park, and the children— some of them, at least—appreciate it more thnn people would think who
don't know these tenement boys ai»d girls.
The other day one small boy said to the principal
of the primary department. Mrs. Elolse K. Fisher:"Ido hope nobody'll ever build between us and
the park."

They Need Not Be Pretty, but They
Must Not Be Jealous.The Woman's Homestead Association Is begln-
rn? to wonder just what It Is. anyhow. It or-
giniied under the Impression that it was to help
homeless, husbandlesa. moneyless women to help
themselves by the Pimple plan of establishing themupon some of the land lying Idle In accessiblepaces and furnishing them with tools and so forth
to raise pigs, bees, herbs, flowera, mushrooms,
P-rawberrles. vegetables, squabs and chickens.
That Is what the Woman's Homestead Association•jpposed It was starting out to do. but so many
men have taken Itfor a matrimonial agency that It
begins to doubt its Identity. The association had
no sooner opened Its headquarters-which are In
t ie Ooionial Building in Boston— than It was sim-
ply flooded with letters from men who wanted
wives- good wives, pretty wives, wives warrantednever to be jealous, but, above all. hard working
wives.Here is a cry from the desert. There Is sucn a
note of sadness In this letter, especially In the
last eight words, that It Is Impossible to feel cross
with the man for mistaking the object of the asso-ciation:
"Meßsr dear Sir: "1saw A account of yaw asso-
ciation In the paper and iame A single Man aged

The color effect of a gathering of smart women
nowadays is remarkably harmonious by reason ofthe careful matching of hat and parasol. The cos-
tume, which is itself usually all of one color, 's Incareful contrast. Every chair inside the pleasant
salon with its wide windows thrown open, was oc-
cupied, and the lawn was like a vast garden of
animated flowers, gay in color. There were cos-tumes of pink tussor with smoke gray, black or
white hats and parasols, or the reverse, blue, gray.
r»Je green and many shades of khaki nr.d whitecostumes, all pleasantly mingled, as though pre-
arranged. with the accenting hat and parasol.
Particularly attractive were new hats of blackerin trimmed with great bows of wired white
The battoas wero made unusually decorative by aeesarhsg of smoke gray mo!i«selir.e dc *<oie laid,
oxer satin. The effect Is particularly good, some-thing like SHIMS! ilpearl, but much softer.
A long skirted gown of white plumeUs was
ch;irPiinß!y and oddly finished with a kne* deep
band of all over blue embroidered I'.TH-n. A low
round yoke of it circled the shoulders, made Bhort
sleeves and a wide belt that held together thebodice and skirt. Hat and parasol were blue, andabout the shoulders, twining the firm?, was grace-
fully worn a long pcarf of sky blue moussettne de

MOYENAGE
Paris, June 1.On a recent \u25a0warm day at L*>rigel.amps toilets of
muslin, linen and foulard silk marked the modes.The silks generally ehowed dull colored designs on& white ground, with much white ornamentation;
the hat and parasol matched in color. White cos-tumes were livened by hands of scft toned ribbonsand a belt laid under \u25a0 transparency of lace or•
-jour work. The note of the Moyenage was plain
In a chic costume of white linen, with a hip lengthculrasse corsage, a Baas at Irish lace, embroidery
and Valenciennes lace; a cuirass^ in form only, not
in its suppleness. Its delicacy. Its fragility. Theskirt, laid In flat pleats to the edge of the long
corsage, was hemmed widely with the same beau-tiful meienge of two laces and embroidery. Therewere short sleeve caps of the trimming over looseinulle undereleeves. and the round neck of theUttie guimpe turned over with a narrow frilloflace. "With this charming costume was worn atat cf white Italian straw, trimmed with large
sjgjaj roses and a band at black velvet. There wasa domed sunshade of white embroidered linen,
edged -with many narrow scalloped mull frills.The long ends of a ribbon bow floated from thetop.In the movement of the new skirts there Is al-
•R-ays visible the edge of the petticoat frills, the
6kirt being made the exact length of the gown.
"White silk and thread stockings are often seen,
•worn either with shoes of black varnished leather
or with white Fhoes.A smart American who lives nearly all the year
in Pans -wore on Sunday a pretty costume of
foulard s'.lK marron figures on a white ground.
"With a graceful effect or drapery, the long skirtopened at on- side, held in \u25a0 fiat cluster of pleats

"I thought Iwas going to die and go to heaven;then, perhaps, the women of America would besorry and would finish my work as a memorial to
mo. and all would be well with me and with If."Miss Slnch's whole life had been a sacrifice to
the Isabella Thoburn College. She gave up herplace in a government school to t»ach at the col-lejre at a much smaller salary, and she sold herJewels to pay the expenses el students. She waseducating six si the time of her death.
"What does jewelry mean tO me," *h# said,
"when throe girls r'"leducating?"
Miss Pln*h helonged to a hl?h caste Hindufamily which had been Christian for three genera-
tions. Her parents placed her in the IsabellaThoburn school when aha was ten years eld.
At this time it was unusual for a girlIn India to
learn to rend, hut Miss Singh's thirst tot knowl-edge was so great thai when she bad finished theschool coarse she Joined two other students In en-treating Miss Thotwra to give her an opportunity
for higher learning- 80 th» first college classes for
Christian girls In India were opened, and fromthem developed the Isabella Thoburn Collegf. MUsSingh took her degree of p. A. from Calcutta Uni-versity and the degree of M. A. from the University
of Allahabad. Bbs had taught In the Lucknow
"Iwould be willingto leave my body In Americaif Icould de thai thing for the women of India."and only a few days before her sudden departure
*h# said sadly: "I do not seem to accomplish thisby my life;perhaps Itmay come by my death."
The surgical operation which resulted In MissHugh's death In Chicago was preceded a few
months earlier by another, and when It proved
successful she saM:
the Isabella Thoburn College, of Laftssw, India.\u25a0who died recently In Chicago. The work which
brought her fr-m India to America, that of raising
a fund of QS.OM upon which depended a grant ofCS.P<y> from the government, progressed elovlydur-ing her lifetime, but la now llk-lyto b* accom-plished in dM near future. Miss Helen MillerGould, at whose home Mis* Singh presented theneeds of the college early iast winter, has given
RUMs, MiSS Grace Podge has given I'-^. andsmaller amounts are coming in from many sources.
This is as Miss Plnsh wished it to bs Her healthhad been falling for a long time, hut sb» refusedto rive herself say rest, counting her own welfare
Of less Importance than that of the college. Notlong before her death she said, with pathetic eager-
ness:

AMother Tells Why She Prefers This Methodto That of the School.
A mother who mites to "The Woman's HomeCompanion" is not f=o convinced as some peopleseem to be of the advantages of that great Ameri-can institution, the public school. She does noteven recommend a private school. It Is the homeschool that sh< has chosen for her daughter. Thelittle girl was sent to school at the usual age, andhad th» good fortune to be put in charge of anideal teacher, but the experiment proved so un-satisfactory that she was withdrawn In a fewweeks and now does her lessons at home.
There were f> nary children that the teachercould give littJe individual attention to any ofthem, and as some of them were not so bright asothers, the time of the brighter ones had to bewasted while the teacher explained things to thedull ones. Wh«n the home school was begun thofirst important discovery made was thnt an hourand a half every morning and every afternoon wasenough to cover all the work that had J^een donoat school, with the addition of two daily lessonsIn German. No time was •wasted hearing othersrecite or waiting for the next lesson, and the littlegirl has a strong Incentive to concentration be-cause she knows that when lessons are over sh<»can play. ItIs not a question of putting In \u25a0 cer-tain number of hours. She learns her lesson andthen recites It to papa or mamma wherever theyhappen to be. and she studies wherever shechooses, on the porch, by the haystack, or flat onher stomach on a rug before the fire.
The mother admits that it has not been easyand that if she had ten children she could not doit,but with only one she wouldn't think of givingup the horns schooL
Other people urge that "a child needs the contactwith others; that it is the Inalienable right ofevery American child to go out into the world andrub up against Its fellows, and learn to fight Itsown battles and make Its own way."
"With boys— perhaps." concedes the mother. "Ihave not decided about boys. Ihave' only a littlegirl. But when Ithink of sending her out at thedefenceless age of six to rub up against the world,to learn to fight her own battles and to make herown way, somehow it does not coincide with theideal 1 have In mind for'her." And as for theIncentive of competition, the little girl competeswith her own best record. She "wins over her pastbest, and her victory does not mean the defeat ofher dearest chum."
But these objections dc not come from teachers.It is the parents who make them. The educatorswith whom the mother has talked have said, with-out exception, that the home school, with indivi-dual attention to Individual needs, end carefullyselected playmates, is far better for the child thanthe public school and contact with ell scrtß ofchildren.

guipure., or Venice lace. One such finished mostartistically a costume of coral colored tussor. The
skirt was pleated Bnd short; the coat, long and
dose hung, yet without In the least clasping thef.gure, was faced with black and trimmed withblack Jet buttons. Another hat of black erin hadth» immense lace bow that trimmed It covered with
thin black tulle. This finished a eoatume of white
voile worn with a email cape Jacket of blacktaffeta silk ruched on all its edges with pinked
silk. The back of the garment reached only to thewaistline; the front fell half way to the knees.
Truly charming are these little coverings for theshoulders. And the pretty silk ruches that edg<»
them givo an air of quaintnesa quite f*t hlng.
Quaint also are the flat, round collars and nar-row frills that finish the necks of summer gowns.Many women wear them for o«t-«f-door doings, inthe Pr.|(=. driving, or at tea time, at parden parties,but the majority prefer on ihepe occasions to tiethe throat with a band of velvet ribbon, or to twistabout It an end of ribbon, or of lac* from the hat.The long scarf of mousseline de sole that accom-panies nearly every costume— except the tailored]
ones—is draped too low, falling from th« shouldersor the arms, to be of service in this way.

An Basils)! medical paper, speaking of te*. says:
"Our conclusions with regard to tea are that Its
original popular use as a stimulating beverage with
breakfast Is Justified and harmless, but that its In-
discriminate consumption with meat foods or dur-ing proteid digestion is likely to be harmful. China
tea. on account of its lens tannic acid content, is
less harmful than Indian tea."*
ItIs said that about one-half of the worlds
port of tea goes to Great Britain, and almost half
of all the marketed coffee of the world goes to the

WEDDINGS.
"It la remnrkabie," Miss Read went on. "**»•well the children behave on these walks. They un-derstand -hat in the park leave's aren't to be picked
and branches aren't to he broken, and they don't
do these things. One teacher can take care of aclass of fifty .\u25a0;..-. except where the children arelittle, and then another teacher goes nlong to seethat they don't get mazed with the fascinations of
the ark and lose themselves."Occasionally a class Is taken to Fort Lee, or
Bronx Park, or even to places much further thanthese, In the real country. The other day Miss Man-bury took fifty boys to Bronx Park, One boy's
mother wasn't going to let him have the 10 cents
for carfare, but his classmates felt this to be such
a hard thing that a small deputation was sent to
the recalcitrant mother to represent to her how. IfJoseph couldn't go, he'd be the only boy of his classleft at school, and would have to hit and study"with a bunch of girl*." The mother relented, andJoseph had Ills trip to Bronx Park.
"They behaved beautifully." Miss Hanbui said."As one of th>- boys said In his composition— theyall nave to write little compositions about whatthey've seen:"'We walked to the cars like gentlemen, two bytwo.'
"Every child, no matter bow small, must write
something about his hour in the park. Some of thecompositions are very good, remarkably good, con-sidering that most of the children are of foreignparentage— Mper cent in this school are Jews— thatmany are from families of newly arrived Immi-grants, that nearly all arc from the swarming tene-ments of the upper East Side.
"Isidore," says one, "saw a white birch with noleaves on it. Ho thinks the tree was dead."
Isidore has a logical mind. Another hoy writes, inhis big, round, childish hand-
"John saw a bird bathing in the lake. It wan allblack except one red spot on it« wing. It flew Intothe sunlight and perched on a limb like a fluffy ball.Emanuel told John it was a blackbird."
Common, everyday things these are to the luckychildren who live in the country. But to boys andgirls cradled between smoky walls and nurtured Inthe noisy streets they open a new world.
"Do they ever throw stones at the birdr?""No; never. We've had Just one case of cruelty
that* know of in this school— a boy who s»em»d to
have the tendency born in him. He was a gooil-Looking lad, with a slick tongue, but again andagain he was found In the park torturing squirrels
and hurting little birds. We put the other boy* onhim. They were furious with him; they weren't
going to have a boy in their school doing thing*
like that. We found we could leave him to them.
Idon't suppose be was ever cured, but he wasn'tfound torturing birds and squirrels in the park any
more.
"For they don't know anything at a)l of nature'sways, some of them, when hey come to \u25a0.:\u25a0=." Miss
Read told the reporter. "I've had them tell me «s
