A New Departure i'm Medicine.

1t is difficult to induce the medical profession to
abandon the cd grooves in which it has Travelled for
centuries Purgation, venesectcn, opiumization and
bsteration are its of venerable hobbies and it
does not like to harness up the four-n-hand of
invgoration regulation publication and renovation
and take new departure. Advanced practitioners
however, who are not welded to old dogmas, admit
speak, a. counter-charm to the malign influences
that produce various disc sed conditions. They do
not deny that in cases of general debility in nervous
complaints and in all disturbances of the liver the
bowels, and the digest organs, this powerful and
wholesome vegetable remedy effects extraordinary
cures. The public rendered this VERDICT many years
ago and the enlightned members Of the profession
acquiese in it. Better late than never.

or be brought so low. As to education,
girls training stops just where the main
part of boys begins. Men are allowed
full opportunity to develop themselves to
their chosen work, and are not diverted by
social demands. Women are at the beck
and call of everybody, as II were, and have
so mapy society duties, so many distract
ing little tri6es to attend to, that the won
der is not that there has not been female
Shakespeare, Raphael, Newton, but that
women have done so much. The problem
what shall we do with our redundant wo-
men in England, is answered by some pill
osophers by proposing emigration and mar
rage. But emigration has already been
largely tried, and Scotch, English and Irish
women have been sent to Australia and
Anne RIGA In great numbers without much
diminishing the gravity of the problem;
as for maria e, there is yet to be found the
woman to say mo" when the right man
appears. As long as the number of wo-
men in Great Britain exceeds that of the
men by 6 per cent marriage will not who'll
ly do away with the difficulty unless Nor
monism is tried. True marriage, is the
crown and glory of a woman's life but il
must be founded on love, and not on the
desire of home or support, while moth
ing can be more deplorable, debasing and
corrupting than the loveless marriages
brought about in our upper society by
craving ambition and longing for good
settlement. Loveless marriages and diff
ferent standard of morality for men and
women are the curses of modern society.
The dignity of labor is not yet properly ap-
preciated. We agree that work is honora-
BILE in man, but are not yet convinced
that idleness is dishonorable in a woman.
contempt for work is at the bottom of
the mind Of fashionable young lady.
Frivolity is so general that 1t Is surprising
that so much good survives in spite of neg
lect. So long as we frown down and sneer
at the efforts to enlarge woman's sphere,
we are encouraging frivolity and ideness
in women. We hear the interests and
rights of woman spoken of as il these could
be separated from those of man, as if men
and women were creatures of different
kind. most common and mischievous
error is that which would make woman the
mere shadow and attendant of her lord, as
ii shadow could be true helpmeet. We
have long heard that mans sphere is the
world; woman's is home. But women
have part in the world, too, while men
are not ciphers in the home circle. The
speaker protested against setting up an
ideal standard and recognizing no woman
illness but such as conformed to that stand
ard. The material need of opening fresh
avenues to women is obvious; the moral
necessity is also of the utmost importance.
Women must have such occupations as will
give them true and genuine sympathies
with their fathers and husbands, who are
toiling day by day for their support, while
the women dependent upon them are wea-
rying out the hours trying to kill time. In
this way wide gulf, constantly expand
ing, is opened between men and women.-

CLEAN HANDs.-The world moves. 1t
is not so respectable as it was a few years
ago to be rascal. People are learning the
lesson that clean hands are desirable, both
for personal comfort and pleasant social in
tercourse. They really seem to be learning
that purity pays, and that personal honor
and incorruptib are good Invest
ment. Rcuges and rings are havinga tough
time of it, and it is their own fault if the
young and ambitious men who are now
coming upon the stage of action do not
learn to place so high a price upon them
selves that neither wealth nor power can
buy them. The rascalities of the New
York ring are all exposed, and the mem
bers of that ring have eli her run away, or
are staggering before public opinion and
the law, dsgraced and degraded men.
Bribery in congress stands exposed and re-
buked, while names that were pure have re-
ceived a tarnsh that can never be polished
away. Men who have held their heads high
in the nation, bow those heads in shame
over hands which are soiled beyond cleans
ing. We call no names, but, scattered up
ruins. Men who had wealth which they
stole, and men who had positions which
they bought, and men who used their pub
lie office to push their private schemes, are
thrown high and dry out of influence, and
lie all exposed upon the rocks of disgrace,
where they are sure to rot or 60 to pieces.
If the young politicians of the country
ttyin l,n no 20 oIo hi
have recounted are so well calculated to
teach, better times for the country lie in the
future. Personal advantage is a mean mo-
tive to appeal to, where so vital a question
as personal purity is concerned, but, as
there is no danger to morals from any 9TH
err appeal, ii is well to meet temptation on its
own ground and fight it with its own weap-
ons. The lesson of the recent exposure is
really needed by none but those who fan
cy that they can compass their ends best by
base means, and if these shall learn from it
that, in the long run, nothing pays so well
in wealth and power aud safety and COM
fort, as virtue, they will learn that which
will be of incalculable benefit to them and
TO the country. No money was ever won
by treachery to trust that did not harm the
winner. No power was ever achieved by
bribery or retained by falsehood that did
not scorch the palm of him who held it,
The consciousness Of i'll desert, the loss of
self-respect, the fear of exposure and the
commitment to life of deception, which
go always with possessions unworthily
won, are poison in the blood, and the ex-
posture sooner or later, is as sure to come
as death.-Dr J. G. Holland, Scribner'S
for April.

WoMEN's REAL NEEDs.-In England
there are now nearly 100000 women de-
pendent upon their own exertions. To tell
such as these that women's proper sphere
is home is mockery, for they are forced
from their homes to get bread. Though
many barrier to woman's earning live
lihood has been broken down, there are
still terrible difficulties in finding employ
ment for women. Specially onerous is the
effort in the case of fallen fortunes, MEM
bers of the genteel classes. True 1t is that
young men now find it hard to get suitable
work they often have to go West. But
there is no analogy among them to the
wholesale yearly destruction of consciences,
bodies and souls among women-destruc-
ton too often brought about by restitution
How can tender hearted people fold their
hands while so many of their sisters are
driven to the gates of hell for the want of
bread? Statements are published that Ca
pable women, willing to work, can get en-
ployment at good wages. Good, steady,
skilled labor is wanted in just those depart
ments where women have gained position.
The unremitting, earnest application re-
quired to acquire skill in these depart
ments, is hard for women to go though. In
them, love of work, for its own sake, is no
more inherent than in men. Moreover,
women are always looking for The appear
ance of the coming emancipation. Men have
nothing but their work to look to for de-
pendence. The greatest evil is the lack OF
right early training, and for this the fami-
ly, the parents, society in general must be
impeached. Society casts a stigma on wo-
men who earn their own livelihood, and
parents pray that their daughters may new

THE 1vySuFUL LITTLE nor.

There was little boy with two little eyes
And he had Little head that just the proper size
And two little arms and two little hands;
On two little legs this boy he stands
Now this Little Boy would now and then be cross,
Because that he could only be the very thing he was
He wanted to be this and then he wanted to bethat
His head was full of wishes underneath his little hat l.
1 wish was a drummer TO beat kettle-drum,
wish was giant, TO say fee-fo-h-faw-fuml
I wish a captain to go sailing in a ship;
I wish 1 was huntsman to crack nice whip.
wish was a horse, to go sixty miles an hour;
1 wish was the that lives in the lighthouse tow
wish was a sea-gull, with two long wings;
1 wish / was a traveller to see all sorts of things
l wish I /, carpenter; wish was lord
/ wish a soldier, with pistol and q sword
1 wish was the man that goes up high in balloon;
I wish. wish, wish could do something else, and
soonl
But all the wishing in the world is not bit Of use;
That Little Boy this very day, he stands in his
shoes.
That Little Boy is still but little Master hatdo-you
call,
AS much If that Little Boy had wished ct ALL
He eats his bread and butter, and he likes 1t very
much;
He grubs about and bumps his head, and bowls his
hoop and such.
And his father and his mother they say "Thank the

Those wishes can not wish away that Little Boy Of
ours" Good Things.
