Itis difficult to;state exactlywhen it became the

fad for women of'society to go>into trade, but Itisa fact that this interesting development lias takenjpiace within the i;ii-T two generations. It was inEngland that women of title first opened t-.hop. to

patronize them. Anyt-ins that was concocted underthe auspices of Lady So-and-So, no matter howbizarre and crude nor how unbecoming 1 to the cus-tomer, was eagerly bonglii.

There is a half acre of ground in the garden,and the young teachers, aided by somo of the bigboys, spaded up every bit of this In the spring, usthere was some difficulty about getting a plough-man.

A TEA GROWER.Women are tho tea drinkers of tho -world. Dr.

Johnson and a few men Ilka him to the contrary

notwithstanding. Being the tea drinkers, why'

should not they be tea growers? That is whatMrs. Clara Ellsworth, of South Carolina, thinks,

mid so she Is crow tea. But bo far as knownBhe Is tho only one of her sex to do It.

Mrs. Ellsworth found herself a widow with threechildren and a SOO-acre form, and she had to rearand educate tho first by means of the second. Shetried cotton, but It proved a poor staff, and shawas considering whether BBS had not better co t>town and keep a boarding; house, when she chancedto pay a visit to a tea garden. She thought Itover, she consulted with her eldest boy. and finallydecided that before brewing tea for ungratefulboarders she would grow Iton her farm.

l"or the first two years she was out of pocket.though In the second year, she says. 6he gatheredand sold from her young- plants a littlemore thanfifty pounds to the acre. But, realizing that theheaviest expense was preparing the ground andsetting cut tho plants, she persevered until shehad tea acres in tea. And last year, according: toher estimate, these averaged about 260 pounds oftea to the acre, and each pound brought a profitof 13 cents. "Not a large profit," she says, "butlarger than Ihave ever been, able to nude- oncotton."

Tea growing could hardly be followed by North-ern women, for tea cannoT be produced to ad-vantage where tie. temperature faila below twentydegrees. But It offers. Mrs. Ellsworth thinks. atine opening for Southern women. "I selectedloamy, fertile soil." she says, "and am careful tohave the drainage perfect. Tea requires plenty ofrain, and it does best Inbottom lands, but Itmustbe well drained. Once a year Iprune my plantsreverely to discourage their tendency to becomstrees. Idon't know that the taste of the tea

v.ould be Injured If the plants were allowed togrow up. but Itwould certainly be hard to pick t_»

tea from trees."Ihave little darkles to pick the tea. and It

Isn't hard work for children, and there are schoolsfor them to attend when they're not In the £elLj

After the tea is picked, it is graded, mixed. drt*Band polished. Strangely enough, tea Isn't a pleas-

ant plant to work with. Not till it is dried doesIts odor become nice and pungent. Before that Itis rather disagreeable in smell. The tea fieldsaren't nearly as profitable as cotton fields, either.But they're a safer Investment for a womanfarmer. With every passing year your tea plaatbecomes more valuable, and requires less work.The weather doesn't seem to affect the tea plantas it does cotton, and the prices paid for tea can.be counted on not to vary much, while the prtCß-

si cotton is about the most variable thing on U»Sface of the globe."Iwish the United States would have a duty en

tea for a few years. Itneedn't be a high one. Justenough to keep the cheap grades of tea out or'

the country. Iam convinced that a small tax ontea is all the Southern States need to enable (Mia

to auDcly the country with that commodity.

"The practice that baa beenIn vogue in many schools of having the childrenspend .i lot of time at mechanical and geometricdrawing without making any application of thedrawing always seemed to me a waste of time.Bui when a child puts a design Into permanent.practical shape It means (something to him. Other-wise it doesn't."Into the big assembly rooms upstairs a class of

mi..11 girls and hoys danced, two by two, theirteacher at their head. In the apace near thepiano they stopped and t>r.>k.> into a Swedish folkdance. Then they did the Qerman 'hoppingdance.' and then they skipped out, and went awayto their arithmetic, or whatever tilled the nextstudy hour. Immediately another class of chil-dren danced In with their teacher

_and began

whirling and bobbins to the music of'the Swedish '•

"weaving dance.""This Is partly to take the place of gymnastics

—only partly," said Dr. Mot>achlan. "We still havegymnastics, Bui gymnastics are formal andrather monotonous.

-Watch tho faces of these

children as they dance, and then some day notethe facial expressions of a class In gymnastics.It Is certainly more diverting to do picturesquesteps to music than it Is to stand Inone spot andstick your right arm out three, times, and thenstick your left nrm out three- times, etc. Not butthat gymnastics are good, but folk dances giveexercise, the development of the muscular sens©,and they give grace. And some of these childrencome from homes where thsre isn't much beautyor grace."

The folk dnncln*?. the gardening and so on donot seem to Interfere with the book lessons of thechildren In the model school. In reading, mathe-matics and the other branches they seen to holdtheir own with *:i- • pupils in other schools. Theyare especially good in drawing. Some of the classwork of the higher grades, hung up for exhibitionat the end of the year, showed no little originalityand excellent execution.
