YOUNG WnE's GREATEST TRIAL. The
 greatest trial of young wife's fife, is the
 birth of a child which Is usually attended with many hours of hard labor and intense pain. PAINLESS CHILDBIRTH. a new book by Dr J. H. Dye, one of New York's most emil nent physicians, however, shows that pain is not necessar, in childbirth, but results from causes easi y understood and overcome. It proves conclusively that any woman may be- come mother without experiencing any pain whatever. It also tells how to overcome and prevent morning sickness, swell ed limbs, ner- vousness, pain in back and all the unpleasant sensations attending pregnancy. It answers hundreds of delicate questions about women and their peculiar troubles. Physicians high ly recommend it, and say that it will do all that is claimed for 1t.

There is 8 curious bill which one mem Der of congress proposes, to require that
 ny person, upon taking any pubic office, shall first be required to swear that he has not directly or indirt etly given any money 'r any valuable thing to s' cure el otion or appointment to such office. The people who would calmly take such an oath knowing it to be false, are just the people who ought to be excluded from office. The other people who would not take it, be- cause they could not say with strict and technical truth that they hsd never given anything indirectly to secure an election, ence which might be of some use in pub- lc station. The aim of the bill, to keep the people out who buy their way in, is of course good, but it is doubtful whether any good end has ever been served by test oaths. IN y. Tribune.
