NoTuINu Is LOST.
Nothing is lost The tiniest seed
BY wild birds borne or breezes blown
Finds something suited to It's need
Wherein it's sown and grown.
The language OF some household song,
The perfume of some cherished flower,
Though gone from outward sense, belong

CONTRAST Blaine's cowardly dodge of
the Prohibition issue in Maine with Grover
Cleveland's manly declaration against
sumptusry legislation: "Thus, laws un-

Il On the first page to-day is given a
, interesting presentation of the wOma
, question from the pen Of Francis Kin

l riority is due to ages of unfair treatmer
t and who adhere to the belief that the fem
nine capacity is under natural condition
