Where swords and cannon rattled And death shrieks of despair Blurred victory's shout upringing. My humble Muse is bringing Fresh wreaths of song to wear. She sings of women sitting, In homes made dark by fear. Of hands that paused in knitting To wipe away the furtive tear, While lips were forced to smiling And speech to hopes beguiling And grief was masked as cheer. Oh, courage more than human, To live day after day The lonely life of woman Afar from fields of fray, Without war's wild distracti"n, . To sit in forced inaction And think, and weep and pray.

On Breaking Ground, October 67 COUNCIL OF WOMEN. Mts. Emily Cummings NATIONAL . COUNCIL OF DENMARK. NATIONAL COUNCIL OF HOLLAND. Our Society of National Women's Labor has done a fine thing in organizing a way of pensioning working women by making possible an insurance whereby the premium may be augmented or may be diminished, or indeed stopped in times of need, while whatever was paid continues to keep its value. It is expected that this will prove an immense value to women workers, domestic servants, teachers, shop girls, etc . if only they may be made to feel the importance ol insuring themselves very early in life. The Dutch branch of the "Societe Internationale des amis de la jeune fille" has this winter undertaken to imitate the "venvre de lagare," as it is already in activity in Germany and in Switzerland At the different, railways and steamboats cards are placed to direct young girls traveling alone to the different "Homes" in ou.r towns. At the same time some ladies undertake to meet them on the arrival of the great expresses from Germany and France. In Amsterdam the work at one of the stations is done by Roman Catholic ladies, and at the other by Protestant ladies, who acting in, the most friendly direct the girls to whatever addresses they want, according to the faith they profess. It is a great thing also that the municipality of Amsterdam, wishing to increase the supervision in its public schools decided to create the post of inspector of the same and it was immediately resolved that one of the four persons named for this most d and post should be a same woman. The municipality also granted the necessary funds for a great school especially designed fo'r the training of women servants. . hon-orab- 'e well-salarie- How one longs for the gift of tongues, or for a universal language, when so interest ing a pamphlet comes to one as the "Dansk However one Kvinderaad" for 1 can only gather glimpses of interesting and California clubwomen are workiug for the business like reports presented by these establishment oF a children's court.
