better men TO oflice' After seventeen
years experience the people OF Wyoming
are more In favor of woman suffrage than
ever. They declare that the laws were
never respected nor enforced, nor crime
punished, nor property and life protected.

OF the American Union have gwen wo--
men achool-suffrage, which IA some,
states limits them to vote,
for school committee, and In Others gives
them the right TO vote on all matters re-.
latlng to the public schools, and makes

FOR THE SISTERS.
Something for Woman to Become besides
Stars and Artists' Models.


Something for Woman to Become besides
Stars and Artists' Models.
To the Editor OF the Gazette.
HILLsBoRo, TEX, Oct. SIN introduce
ing myself to you l will say am an lllit
crate girl, about seventeen years, blonde
complexion, features rather coarse, figure
fair, although not model for an artist,
weight 100 pounds. Now you will have
some Idea OF the person addressing you.
My name / will give you further on /.
am not advertising for position for
have got one and am as happy as a lark,
but what wanted to say was that have
been reading your valuable paper and
read the warning you gave to a young
miss who had advertised herself In an
Eastern paper as a fine figure, well edu
Gated and good-looking aud wanted
situation with a theatrical troupe.
The advice was timely and well advised,
and the wise will profit by 1t. There are
already too many OF our sex with mania
to be stars and artists and TO marry
dukes, marquises, counts, lords, etc, ac-
complished gents with empty titles, peck
cts and heads. / have never seen any OF
them, but have their pictures and they
remind me so much of my little poodle,
Fido, with their hair split in the center,
and they tell me that they are the most
miserable people in the world, nothing
more than government pRupers, and why
any American woman should want to
marry a man who never merited single
virtue or ever earned an honest dollar and
oe prescribed like our paupers, is more
than am gong TO answer now. But /
believe II mothers would be little more
particular and less indulgent with their
daughters 1t would be better for both.
For instance, make them get up In the
morning and do the homework, wait on
themselves, read fewer novels and more
! history, and l win insure that there will
be less star actresses and artists models
/ and more happy families, with less mex
pressive glares, as II looking over great
sea OF nothingness, no object In view and
nothing TO do, weary and no place to
rest, caused by enforced idleness and
reading novels where the imagination OF
the author was stretched as long as Cyrus
Fields Atlantic cable, and his con.
science as elastic as the Goodyear Rub
Der company, making star actresses and
heroines by the contract for some pub
fishing company.
Now, would suggest to the sisters that
want to make display OF knowledge and
genius, TO commence In the school-room
at home, If they have the happy faculty Of
imparting their knowledge to the chill
dren, at the same time gaining their love
