71 | Dounia | Melendez | f | Prostrated from overwork, she went south for her health, and there engaged in teaching during several years, in the states of Mississippi and Tennessee. After her marriage to C. O. Poole of New York City on January 14, 1865, Poole became occupied with domestic pursuits. In 1868, the Pooles went abroad, where they traveled, during several months, in Great Britain and on the Continent. During these travels, Poole contributed a series of letters to a daily paper of New York from Edinburgh, London, Paris, Rome, Naples, and Geneva. Interrupted for some time by domestic duties, her contributions were resumed in the Continent and Manhattan magazines. Those consisted chiefly of illustrated articles upon the arts of decoration, and were followed in various publications by a large number of critical and descriptive essays upon those and similar topics. Her series of articles applied to the house appeared in the Home Maker, another in Good Housekeeping, and a large number of her illustrated articles appeared from time to time in the Decorator and Furnisher of New York. In them, there were schemes for house decoration, which were widely copied. Another series, "From Attic to Cellar," was furnished to the Home Magazine, and a still longer series, "The Philosophy of Living," was contributed by Poole to Good Housekeeping. She also wrote many unsigned articles, including editorials, art and book criticisms and essays. In spite of her fondness for art, she also studied literary, ethical, and reformatory subjects. Upon one or another of those topics, she frequently gave conversations or lectures in drawing-rooms in those fields. Her articles were published with the Chautauquan, the Arena, the Union Signal, the Ladies' Home Journal and many others. During several years, she edited a column upon "Woman and the Household" in a weekly newspaper, and also wrote editorials for journals on ethics and reform. Her last book, entitled Fruits and How to Use Them (New York, 1891), was unique and attained a large circulation; itcontained nearly 700 recipes for the preparation of fruits. Poole served as an officer of Sorosis, and furnished a History of Sorosis for the Woman's Library Building of the World's Columbian Exposition. She was also a member of the New York Woman's Press Club. As a poet, Poole's contributions were less frequent. Some of her verses were included in Harper's Encyclopaedia of Poetry, edited by Epes Sargent. | She made her home in Metuchen, New Jersey.
