gentle daughter out of your home and condemn
her to the anathemas of a cruel world because she
yields to her nature, is drawn into the broad stream
of passion, is carried by its turbulence away from
safety and your love, while your boy, your beau
tful son, is nightly draining the cup of Bacchus and
other mothers daughters are twining fair arms
about his neck, and all are going down to perdition
together, You keep this boy, this treasured son,
with all these nightly revelres within the sanctty
of the home nest; he is petted, loved, if anything
more tenderly after he begins to SOW his 'swild
OATS and comes home intoxicated perhaps night
after night, than before What crying shame!
And mother, know this Just so long as you per-
NIT your sons to thus riot in the downfall of some
other mothers daughters, just as long as you cast
your daughters out for the faults you condone in
your sons, there will be great blghtng scar upon
the fair face of our American civilization, and mil
lions of women, outcast by society," will live and
die in hopeless despair; an element Of immortality
which menaces society, and is today becoming so
prevalent it is almost popular. Every sane man
or woman of any years knows our homes, our
'happy homes, are, from the oldest to the young
est each member, male or female, In peril so long
as these crying sins exist.
There is but one way to remedy them, and that
is not by crying sunclean' in woman and tex
cusable" in man. Oh, womanl woman! be thine
own savior; declare it shall not be. Study thy
nature; be true to it. If you condone the follies
and sins of your sons so also condone the follies
and sins Of your daughters, and remember, thy
children in the sight of nature are both human be-
ings fallible alike, and capable alike of heights,
of depths, of all human possibilities here, and all
glory hereafter.

October.

Earlier sunsets briefer twilights, a hint of damp
ness in the air, the welcome glow and cheerful
crackle of the CRATE fire, dancing shadows on the
walls, and little earlier bringing on of lights an
nounce the arrival of October.
Dame Nature Spring attire, her gown of dain-
test green, garlanded as it was for Summer, has
faded to an uncanny hue; the floral decorations
have ceased to adorn, and like relics of withered
spendor they give but faint idea of their former
beauty.
Dame Nature is undeniably shabby; few bright
berries and some respondent Autumn tints Of red
and yellow will serve to screen her sun-faded attire
for a brief period. She catches at these last
straws with true feminine desperation-so bound
less are her resources. Soon there will be naught
to shield her from the winds and frosts that carry
her dead leaves and deserted bird homes to the
ground "Passng away all that we cherish-all
things telling us earth's not our home"
The flood Of humanity that fed from home-that
fled as the wicked flee when no man pursueth
that fled as society fees when fashion pursueth-is
coming back again.
The Summer is memory; gone are its vagaries
and realities alike into The unreclamable past the
gowns that were vision of loveness in June are
now shabby reality, a reminder of depleted
bank account; but fashion already looks forward
to the first Fall opening. The watering places,
grown dismal and cheerless are preparing to close
up.
In the South there are still two months of warm
weather to come; the baseball season will soon
open, and ice cream is saeable till it's time to hang
up your stocking. The cotton that has done such
good work under the rays of tropical sun, is now
being brought into market. The cotton-press
signs and wheezes and groans all day and all night,
and the turbulent vibrations fall upon the patient
ear of the prosperous cotton buyer like the sub
dued breath of angels. Then the seed is shipped
to the inventive Yankee, who speedily converts it
into ''huile d'olive," with the imported label, or
promptly puts it up in bright tin pals With 'pure
leaf lard'' impressed thereon.
Surely now we reap the reward of seed time ;
the earth has brought forth her increase; the la
borer receives his hire the squirrel lays up his
Winter store, and the price Of coal takes frisky

LOOKING over the sensational columns of the
daes columns which fill the 'tlls' of their
owners but help to demoralize the country moth
ing strikes the thoughtful reader more forcibly
than the great difference between the number of
suicides among men, as compared to those com
mitted by women; the number of males who take
their own lives being far in excess of the females,
and one naturally begins to moralize upon the
why and wherefore of this difference, The aver
age woman will say at once, that women oftener
have reasons Gf indeed there ever can be reason)
for taking their own lives than men, so there must
be some great natural cause which prevents them.
Many will doubtless claim that religious faith ex-
ercises this wholesome restraint, and to a very
great extent this is probably true, but when we
remember that in the time of great epdemics all
such barriers are broken over, and desperation at
tacks alike the good and the bad, we may have to
look further for the main cause. That women are
slower to despair is very evident and it is not in
frequent that we see the wife keeping up her
corner-looking persstently for silver lining to
the darkest cloud long after the husband has closed
his eyes to every hopeful sign, and given himself
over to helpless dispair. Thus we are led to con-
clude that when misery's reign began after the
opening of Pandora's Box, the one great blessing
left "hope" must have taken refuge in the bosom
of women, and believing this, it is very evident
that the celebrated couplet written by Campbell
was intended to have read thus:
"Hope springs eternal in womans breast,
She rarely is, but always TO BE blessed"
There is, however, one feature of the "suicidal
mania," which women have a reasonable excuse
for protesting against, and that is the cowardly
fashion now prevailing to- an alarming extent
among men of suicidal intent. The man without
room in his contracted breast for hope or any other
virtue, having tired of worthless life, decides to
end it, but like the Indian who desires to take his
horse as guide to the esprit land' first kills his
wife and then himself. Of course, he leaves note
in which he sets forth in excuse his over-weenine
devotion, yet this would scarcely act as comfort
ing reflection for the numerous wives not feeling
fully prepared for so generous and complete sac
rifice.

UNDER the caption of "The Worst Enemy of
Woman is Woman" an article appeared in The
Open Court, by Mr. Hegeler, the owner of that
weekly, to which Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton re-
plies in the same paper, reprinted in the Boston
Transcript. In speaking of our social customs,
which are based upon the inferorty of woman and
her enforced condition of subsection to man, Mrs.
Stanton says: "lIen are responsible for this. They
do not care what women do to exaggerate their
own helplessness and ignorance. Masculine oppo-
sition has been uniformly called out to keep women
as they are, to suppress their individual life larger
liberty and higher education. Their protests have
been loud and long against women entering the
colleges the professions, the world of profitable
work, but they have never made any organized OPP
position against the customs that degrade and de-
fraud them. For every step in progress that
woman has made toward the freedom she eniovs
to-day she is indebted to her own SEX"

Chicago Grain and Produce.

CHICAGO, March 15.-The bearish feel
ing which prevailed at the close OF busl-
ness Yesterday was even more pronounced
at the opening of Change this morning
The big increase in the amount OF wheat
in ocean passage was still a depressing in
fluence. and while Geographic communlca-
ton with New York was fully restored,
the few orders from there were to sell in
stead of buy The short interest was
nearly all covered on the early bulge yes
terday, and the weather in the wheat belt
according to this mornings advices, was
favorable to the crops and therefore I'M
favorable to the bulls May wheat opened
at 793Ic and dragged through the first hour
with the price ranging between 7914c and
19GICd 79l5c. The professionals in
wheat were chiefly engaged in
supporting the market; whenever it
started up they sold, when it declined they
were buyers. BY 1890 May wheat was
selling at 791la79%c, though the trading
was limited. Toward the close decided
weakness again developed and the final
figure for May was 19H.
Corn was weakened by the large receipts
as well as by the general spirit OF weak
ness which seemed to prevail all over the
floor. There was no large short interests
in the market, no outside orders to buy,
no encouragement on foreign advices and
on free selling early there was a lower
opening and slight decline. This was
followed by rally to last nights prices
for all futures and again before the close
there was weakness and depression. The
range in May was nc down to sic, re-
action to 51Ssc, decline to 511sc, closing
at 5lLc.
There was some stubbornness in the oats
trade and while the offerings were free
early, there Were many orders to buy May
at Bic. The range was 3016G31Tc, closing
at the outside
May pork was excited and opened weak
11Sc lower, owing to larger receipts of hogs
and lower prices. Offerings were small
and it required little effort on the part of
buyers to reverse the course of values and
later in the day when grain became firmes,
a strong feeling developed and prices
advanced 10dl2kc, the market closing
firmer at outside figures. May opened at
s14071%, advanced to s14.1713 and closed at
Sl4l2}@. Lard remained slow and a shade
easier at 81 67J az. 10 for May. Short ribs,
like pork, opened weak and lower but
after declining a shade reacted and closed
steady with all the decline recovered.
The leading futures were as follows.
