FOR THE FAIR SEX
SVSnfen as Dentists.

Miss Jessie +. Dstchon. the young
lady who recently graduated from the
Philadelphia dental college, told d res
porter of the Philadelphia Record that
beside herself and another lady dentist
in that city there is d German lady who
graduated from the same institution
and who now holds the position OF pri-
vate dentist to the Empress Augusta,
Of Austria. Miss Detchon said:
"f. am surprised that many more
women do not enter the profession, for
1t offers them wonderfully good field,
and there is no reason why they should
not be successful, since the other lady
dentist in Philadelphia and myself
have large and constantly increasing
practices. When l made up my mind
to study dentistry, and the students OF
the college were told that they were
to have lady student come among
them, they were very indignant
and Threatened to make it too
hot for any woman who
essayed to take the course, and
80 started in with some little ner-
vousness. From the outset down I
was treated with the greatest eour-
tesy. Why" said the young lady, eri-
Enthusiastically, "they were so nice to
me that when graduated 1 felt as
though many of them were as dear to
me as real brothers would have BEEN"
"Have you many gentlemen pa
tients p asked the reporter, who Was
sorry he had no aching molar.
"No; a great majority of my pa
tients are ladies. / also attend to the
teeth of great many children, as they
are not so nervous with lady as with
gentleman"
Miss Detchon said that she thought
the profession of dentistry a much
better one for women than that of
medicine, which she had also studied,
Is the former was one in which regu-
lar Office hours could be observed,
while to be successful in the practice
Of medicine lady must be ready to
,ally forth at all hours of the day and
light, and must undergo no small
AMOUNT of exposure.

These two were the ring-masters of the

who was playing audience cried out
"anothef SELL which closed the

The cry has been that some hurley
negro committed rape on some white
woman or committed some highway
robbery. The poor negro has been the
subject of abuse for many years in this
city, but Mr. Thompson, of the Citizens
Committee, has brought to light, ne

A Lilliputian Republic,

How many people are there who
know that one of the smallest republics
in the world lies nestled on the south
efn slope of the Pyrenees? For many
hundred years it has remained neutral
whilst Frenchmen and Spaniards have
waged war after war, winning or losing
the province around it. Dynasties
have risen and fallen, the star of
empire has shone over many nations,
but amidst all upheavals and changes
it has remained republic. Yes, frail
Andorra has clung to its early indie
pendence and is to-day proof that in
the political as in the natural world
the reed outlives many hurricanes
which uproot the oak. 1t is probable
that even now the existence of the
Andorres would be Wrapt in oblivion
to the outside world, had not the
French begun to talk of annexlng the
doughty little republic. The posi-
bility that their independence, which
has survived after its own peculiar
fashion since the days of Charlemagne,
is now in danger of extinction, causes
us to turn with interest to inquire a
little into their history
Andorra has long been under the
nominal suzerainty or protection OF
France, and of the bishops of Urgel-
Catalan ecclesiastics of the old Span
ish type. Barely larger than an ordi-
nary county-its whole area is not
much more than $50 square miles-its
inhabitants are less than 1900 in
number. Their chief occupations are
cattle-raising and chartoal-making
and they Craze their fiocks on the
sunny slopes Of the Pyrenees, from
which they cut down the forests for
there fuel. A council-general of
twenty-four members, presided over
by two syndics, watches the material
interests of the people. Two viguiers,
or magistrates, and a Judge discharging
the judicial duties of the republic, the
former being nominated by France and
the Bishop of Urgel, and the latter be-
ing appointed first by France
and then by the t;hop. The
council holds its powers for four
years, and is elected in an old
fashioned way. reminding one of the
clan customs of the Scotch. The heads
of four families in each parish meet
together and choose one delegate from
each locality. Here begins and here
end the political functions of the An
dorrese. The ba!lot-box is as unknown
to them as the poll tax, and the other
residents in each parish are supposed
to respect without question the ap-
pointments made by their patriarchial
chiefs.
Every two years the Andorres pay a
tribute of $50 francs to the Bishop Of
Uryel on the intervening seasons; but
for all that they deem themselves indie
pendent, and as far as the outside
world is interested in their existence,
it is hoped that they may continue so.

manufactures make good showing as to

compared with the selling price. OF four
brands of local make three of them ex-
coed in value the selling price, one OF
them by nearly SIS per ton. A Peninsular
manufacturer would appear to be out Of
pocket with his production, for while the
article sells for 1898 the analysis
values it at 1856. Among nearly 100 fer.
tilizers tested the greatest contrast is that
of one make selling for sa4 per ton to
which no value is given another which
