Dr. Hale of Chicago, taking as his
text the case OF a woman who was run
over on the street and killed, because
she drew back after starting to cross
ahead OF pair of horses, says tha,
he is surprised that more women are
not hurt in the same way. "a woman
starts TO cross the street," he says" ,"and
when she gets one-third or half way
over she sees team approaching; the
driver in nearly every instance watches
her movements and seeks to drive in
behind her. If she keeps on her way,
all is well. II she only stands still she
is perfectly safe. But here comes in the
strange and fatal idiosyncracy of her
sex. Just as the driver thinks he can
safely drive behind her, she stops, starts
back few steps, and, unless the driver
is prompt, and draws his horse back on
his launches, the woman is under hls
teet or knocked down."

Garfield be took up Arthur and related his
dismissal from office. He then referred 10
Hancock's record, and took 1t up from the
time he entered West Point until the pres
ent, speaking of his actions in the army in
such eloquent terms that he was frequently
interrupted with applause. Alter treating
of Hayes fraudulent Inauguration, he closed
his address with an eloquent appeal to the
people to support Hancock and English.

Lead thy mother tenderly
Down iife's ste, p d. cline:
Once her avn was thy support,
Now she leans on thine,
She upon her loving face,
Those deep lines OF care;
Think 1t was her tell for thee
Left that record there.
Meier forget her tireless watch
Kept by day and night;
Taxing from her step the grace,
From her eve, the light.
Cherish well her faithful heart.
Which through weary years
Echoed with tLs sympathy
All thy smiles and tears,
Thank God for thy mothers love.
Guard the priceless boon:
For tue bitter parting hour
Cometh all toe soon,
When thy grateful tenderness
Loses power to save,
Earth will hold no dearer spot
Than thy dear mothers grave.
