knowledged leader of Chicago society for
twenty-five years, "if women only knew how
sweet and lovely they are, and how much
they can do with men, tDey would pay more
attention to their personal cultivation than
they DO. Why. if woman only goes about
it right she could do anything with man,
and make him conform to her ideas in every
particular. She has tact, skill, tai
ent, beauty, refinement, and, COM
bine her intuition with her fascinating
powers, she can change his politics, re-
form his religious ideas, alter the whole
course Of his life, aud shape his career to suit
herself. But she must not be q fool, can
tell you, nor must she forget for an instant
the art and fineSse by which she rules.
Man is at best brusque, selfish, impuls-
i've creature, full of conceits and vagaries,
and anxious to rule and control. He has
strength, and he wants to use it; he has ere
alive faculties, and tries to execute. But,
whatever be is, he looks to woman for his
pleasures, and the one who can please him
can rule him and do with him what she Will

Almost every woman who has kept house
for several years has stair-carpet that is
badly worn out with the exception Of the

After it is carefully cleaned, cut the border

al ballots used to be taken for the same
purpose. So far as the maj himself il
concerned it could make Ito difference as
his fate would be scaled anyhow.
els it fair to add the vote of the mar
who is dropped to that Of the n who
has the highest vote from the town
ship?" 1t appears so to us. The object
is to nominate the strongest man. 1t
is natural to suppose (there is no way
to settle it beyond question: that the
man having the largest vote in a town
ship would be the second choice OF
most of those who vote for the others.
Beside, it would in some measure pre-
serve the autonomy of the township
by strengthening the strongest candi-
date it has before the convention.
"Is not the plan complicated" Not
at all. The ticket itself would almost
explain it to the voters at the polls, and
the printed circular of the executive
committee would make it perfectly
clear.
We submit this plan to the democrat
ic..veters in the various townships, and
ask them to consider it, with others.
Whatever they adopt we shall &C.
quiesce e. in verycheerfully but we believe
this system, being a compromise, and
really better than either of the old
ones, would please a large majority of
democrats Of the county. 1t would
beyond any p%eradventure secure the
nomination of the strongest men for
'very office, and it would absolutely
prevent any sort of trading for votes in
he convention.

No man in the country can better
speak for Mr.. Randall than can Major
Jne. n. Edwards, editor of the st.
Joseph Gazette. Major Edwards made
a gallant and persistent fight for Mr..
Randall as speaker. He is his personal
friend, and knows his opinions as
clearly as does any one. The major
says in his paper:-''Let those who
are so swift to declare that Randall
means to bolt the caucus, and lead a
revolt against all forms Of tariff legis-
%lation, watch their own feet and keep
from straying into forbidden paths.
When Randall bolts a caucus of his
party, or does aught of anything else
to give aid and comfort to the common
enemy, what would be left of democrat
ic organization in the land might easily
be wheeled on to the potter's field in a
wheeibarrow." We are glad to hear

mors about Mr.. Randall from so relia-
