Good Housekeeping: A man should
first of all help his wife in planning her
work. Let every husband give his
wife the benefit Of his practical expcr-
ience. and advise with her how she may
best arrange and time her several duties
fhat they may least conflict.
In the second place. the husband should
give the wife the full amoun of money
necessary properly to care for the home.
Third, he should see that she has the
Best tools that can be had TO Tighten her
asAor.
Fourth, he should by every possible
means shorten her hours Of labor. If he
dnds that she IS obliged to work earlier
end later then he. then he should at once
give or procure for her such assistance as
will make their working hours equsl.
Fifth. realizing that for her labor she
receives no direct compensation, he

Finally the man must recognize that
many of the domestic duties are essen

woman; such are all hat require great
ply steal cXertion. Therefore. not only
should proper implements be generously
furnished for the woman's use, but al
the materials she must use should be pro

the EconomiSte urges that the company

A POLITICAL CRISIS.

There is no doubt that both OF the
great parties of the country are on the
verge of an important crisis. The De
mocracy has planted itself squarely un.
der the flag of the Mills bill, and haa
pledged itself to the principles enuDci'
ated In that measure The Republicans
have, on the other hand. committed them
selves to high protection and free whisky
and under these two standards the issue
has been Joined aud the Democratic
and Republican forces have massed
themselves for the November contest.
The battle To be fought must be deci'
sive. If the Democracy WINS, the Re
publican tariff under which monopoly
has been fOstered and grown fat, will be
wounded to the death, and the party OF
the people will gain a triumph which
will establish it In power for years to
come. until it's mission of reform il con-
plete'y accomplished If II is defeated
the Republican system of spoils, iayorite
ism and the advancement OF the few at
the expense of the many will be re
stored, and the balmv days of Grantsm,
Belknapism, Babcockism, and Ringism
will come again.
The great fight, therefore, Is which
shall hereafter rule in the country, De
mocracy or Radicalismy After Novem
Der either one or the other Of the two
national parties must disiiE' Iegyote In
case inc @'fd i1 ava, the voters Is in favor

South, will be the experience of the fu-
ture II il is in favor of the Democrats,
Ion sectional, conservative, and wise
Government, fair and equal 10 all men,
and maintaining popular rights and
popular liberty will be the result.
With this issue fairly and plainly pre-
sented to the people, there can be no rea-
sonablc doubt as 10 the result, yet the
Democracy cannot afford to indulge in
over confidence. True they have right,
Justice and good Government all on their
side, but the Republicans are fighting for
their lives, and as the fate of the barons

General Boulanger suffered disastrous
defeat in Ardeche on Sunday, his oppon-

was the first test Of the Generals popu.
larity since his affair with NJ. Floquel,
and the result contrasts strongly with the
elections in the Nord and Dordogue not
many weeks ago. Boulanger attributes
his defeat to his inability to conduct the

the Department Of Somme.
