Canadian Woman's NewsLetter. From the Canadian Syndicate. Ottawa, Dec. 6.--The annual exhibi- tion of work of the May Court Club, was held this week and as usual was very successful. Each member of the club is -expected to exhibit at least one specimen of her handiwork made during the year, whether it takes the form of useful or fancy needlework, or any other of the various branches of art. The very creditable display made this year consisted of embroidery, wa- ter colors, or oils, lace, burnt work, wood carving, knitting, erocheting and paper work, ete. The articles dis- played may be sold if the exhibitors wish, in which case they are marked with the owner's price, and are pur- chased through a sale committee. No names appear, the members being known to the sale committee by num- bers. The sale opens with a sale at which, when she is in town, the Coun- tess of Minto is a guest of honor,'and is then open to the public for the two succeeding days. This year however, the exhibit lasted only two days. The junior branch is well represented in the exhibits, and their table always re- ceives a large share of the attention. - - - - The third annual meeting of the Spanish-American war nurses was be- ing held at Washington this weck and was attended by a considerable num- ber of Canadians, both from the Un- ited States and Canada, for the Can- adian nurse, as is well known, is in the ascendant in United States, and her services were as highly valued dur- ing the Spanish American war, as they have been and are in the instituti ns of peace. The time will come perhaps. when Canada will get the benefit of the services of her own nurses. and Sir James Grant, 'in his adonss to graduating nurses, always exhorts them to stay at home, but meantime there is a certain amount of gratifica: tion in knowing how highly thev are recarded elsewhere. Those who went to Washington. this week undoubtedly, had a glorious time for the pro- gramme announced fetes and entertain- ments of all kinds, every one from the president down being anxious to do honor to the heroines of the war. se we The report of the corresponding sec- retary of the National Council of Wo- men, that three new councils have been organized, in Belleville, Whitby and Port Hope, respectively, will be very oratifving to those who are interested in the welfare of this organization. These are the first hew councils which have been formed since Lady Aber- deen's departure, while one, that of Quebec, has fallen out, a circumstance which has been somewhat seriously de trimental to the reputation of the or- ganization. Those familiar with the work are not particuliarly concerned about it, knowing that the council was not only holding its own, but growing in other ways; but it was dif- ficult to point to any indications of vitality 'that would have so much weight with outsiders, as an increase in numbers. » . » . % (Canadian women are sure to be in- terested in an organization of Indian and Anglo-Indian. ladies, called the Guild of Victoria. The name is de- signed to perpetuate the memory of the late Queen Victoria and the ob- ject is to promote intercourse of Kng- lish. and native ladies, and thus to a certain extent, to bridge over the gulf ! which separates the two races. As everyone who knows anything about India is aware, this is a yery consider- able undertaking, and if the Guild of Victoria can do anything to solve the problem, it will amply justify its ex- istence. The fact is very interesting al so-as-showing that native Indian _wo- men have been touched by the spirit of the times and suggests boundless possibilities in that vast population which has hitherto heen hidden in the zenanas of India. .

H. Fleming, or as she is usually called, Mrs. "Bob" Fleming. The: latter appella- tion is sometimes confusing to strang- ers and out-of-town - society -writers, often give considerable amusement to the lady in question, and her friends, by chronicling the doings of 'Mrs. Robert Fleming." Mrs. Fleming is the daughter of Hon. C. H. Mackintosh, and is said to be strikingly like her mother. She is slightly above medi- um height, and dark haired, of strik- ing figure and finely molded shoul- ders. Ee vivacious, brilliant, she is one oi the most popular young- er matrons, and her home is the ga- thering spot for the younger mem- bers of society. Last season it had an additional reason for popularitv, as Mrs. Fleming chaperoned her debutan- te sister, Miss Hazel Mackintosh, and gave bright entertainments honor. Mr. Fleming is a son of Sir Sandford Fleming, a tall soldierly- looking man, fair, handsome and de- voted to his brilliant wife. . - - . ADVICE. MOTHERLY To Mothers Who Have Cross or Sickly Babies.

A remarkable case was concluded in Dublin' recently, having heen tried abortively four times previously in various courts. The plaintifi was David O'Keeffe, shopkeeper, at Tallow, and he sued ten local leaders of the United hich League for £20,000 dam- ages done to his trade ani business through Leing boycotted by the peo- ple. incited by defendants. 'Keeffe's ofience was the 'taking of a farm from which 4 man had heen evi'ted.

That 'preachers' sons are the very worst of boys," is an old saying, but one difficult of proof. The fact seems to, be that the average clergvinan's son has been much maligned. His pro- verbially bad reputation has arisen from the fact that he forever stands in the fierce light that beats upon the manse. Every little mis-step he makes is eagerly seized upon and made much of by the local gossips, and if per-. chance one minister's son in a thous- and goes seriously wrong, the whole thousand are promptly damned. The parson's boy is the victim of the hu- man tendency to generalize; he is con- demned because the public is prone to jump to sweeping conclusions on in- sufficient evidence. The fact of the matter probably is that ministers' fa- milies possess at least as high a standard of morality as the families of any other class. And it would be strange if this were not so, for the frugality of the living and the religi- ous atmosphere in the ordinary cler- gyman's house must conduce to the implanting of serious views of life in the minds of the inmates thereof. The parson's boy takes his religion with his porridge and just as regularly, and, though he may in his early youth get away a little from its pre cepts, the truths with which his very system was early impregnated will exert a controlling influence over his whole after career. And no doubt the sobering and steadying influences of an upbrincing in a clergyman's household are re- sponsible for the remarkable: success gained in the world of affairs by very many ministers' sons. A canvass of the prominent men of Toronto, for in- stance, will disclose the fact that the community draw a large number of them from the homes of preachers. From one Toronto rectory came forth a puissant capitalist, a high court judge, the foremost criminal lawver of the land, and one of the most, if not absolutely the most, distinguished me- dical authority on the continent; in ga Presbyterian manse was born one of the foremost publishers of Toronto, and of Canada; in a Methodist coun- try parsonage one of our powerful bank presidents first saw the licht of day; in another one of our great millionaires began his career, and in still another a leading young advocate spent his early years. Readers will no doubt have followed us in this enum- eration, and they can easily add ma- terially to this list of ministers' sons pre-eminently successful among their fellows. Nor is the ascendary of the manse confined to Toronto or to Canada. Rev. Dr. Quayle, of Kansas City, has an article in the United States con- temporary in which he incidentally maintains that "God has not shown a better place to be born or nurtured than under a manse roof,"! and he goes on to show what an important part the children of the manse, the parsonage, and the rectory have play- ed in the public life of the United States. He points out that Peter Stuy- vesant, ablest of the Dutch governors of New Amsterdam, was a preacher's son; that Adoniram Judson, greatest of American missionaries, save William Taylor, was a preacher's son; that Jonathan Edwards was a preacher's son; that Timothy Dwight, who turn- ed American youth away from French athtism, was a descendant of Jona- than*Edwards; that the second Timo- thy Dwight," a renowned college presi- dent, ~was a preacher's son; that Henry Clay, the great compromiser, was--the-same;--that--Fritz-Greene- Hal leck, the poet, was descended from John Eliot, 'Apostle to the Indians'; that Samuel F. B. Morse, inventor of telegraphy, and in consequence one of the greatest benefactors of the race, was a preacher's son; that Senator Dolliver is the son of a Methodist clergyman.
