The presence of the horse on the other side
seemed to tell her he had started home, but where
could he be?
She could not go farther to find him. Her horse
would come no nearer the stream, and for her to
attempt to cross it would be madness, as it must
be deep and rapid, or the horse on the other side
would come over. She stood moment bewildered,
then she walked slowly up and down the banks.
AS she went on the banks grew sleeper. Presently
she passed a spot where something very close to
the bank, whirling round and round on the water,
attracted her attention She set her lantern down,
rolled up her sleeve, and reaching down into the
water, drew up something which made her sick at
heart.

A Correction.

EDITOR OF WoMAN's CHRONICLE: In your last
issue appears very able paper on Social Purity,
but in it there one clause that bears directly and
unfairly upon the common school system. 1t is
this: 'The larger per cent of vicious children who
attend these schools make them as powerful agents
for evil as for good
Surely the writer does not mean that the nfu-
ence for evil emanatng from the public schools is
as great as their influence for good; and that is
what this clause ahirms. Neither can she be fami-
liar with the working of this system, or the pupils
who attend these schools, or she would never have
affirmed that the larger per cent were vicious, for
quite the contrary is true. We have in these
schools children from all classes and grades in So
ciety; they come from home of wealth and refine
ment, and from homes where want and hunger are
not strangers; they come from homes where they
are idolized, and from homes where they are re-
garded as troublesome cares they meet upon a
common level and are treated alike. The majority,
however, come from homes where frugalty, sobre-
ty and temperance are practced as daily virtues;
where thrift and cleanliness are regarded as cardi-
nal virtues; where vulgarity and obscenty are
strangers. Now, how can such children exercise as
great an influence for evil as for good?
The laws governing the public schools are made
for the masses, and though deemed rigid by some,
are enforced alike on rich and poor, 50 that any
who merit it, receive suspension. That such cases
are the rare exception and not the rule, will be
shown by glance at the annual reports given to
the public ever since the system was first put in
operation Some children, it is true, violate these
rules as laid down by the board, and are debarred
from the enjoyment of school privileges, but hap
PLY they are in the minority. If the schools do
not, as they exist at this time, exert more pow
erfu influence for good than they do for evil then,
indeed, they had better be closed. M, B. B.

THANKSGIVING.

Oh, men grown sick with toll and care
Leave for awhile the crowded mart:
Oh, women! sinking with despair,
Weary of limb and faint of heart,
Forget your cares today and come
AS children back to childhood's homel
Follow again the winding rills;
Go to places where you went,
When climbing up the summer hills,
In their green lap you sat content;
And softly leaned your head to rest
On Natures calm and peaceful breast.
walk through the sere and fading wood,
So lightly trodden by your feet,
When all you knew of life was good,
And all you dreamed of life was sweet,
And let fond memory lead you back,
Ger youthful loves enchanted track.
Taste the ripe fruit of orchard boughs,
Drink from the messy well once more;
Breathe fragrance from the crowded mows,
With fresh, sweet clover running DER;
And count the treasures at your feet, -. 3.
OF silver rye and golden wheat
Go sit beside the hearth again,
Whose circle once was glad and gay;
And if from out the precious chain
Some shining links have dropped away,
Then guard with tenderer heart and hand
The remnant of your household band.
Draw near the board with plenty spread,
And If in the accustomed place
You see the fathers reverend head,
Or mothers patient loving face;
Whate'er your life may have of i'll,
Thank God that these are left you still.
And though where home hath been you stand
Today In alien loneliness;
Though you may clasp no brothers hand,
And claim no sisters tender kiss;
Though with no friend or lover nigh,
The past is all your company
Thank God for friends your life has known,
For every dear, departed day.
The blessed pasts safe alone
God gives but does not take away;
He only safely keeps above
For us the treasures that we love.

FCHAPTER vi.
1t was Isaac's hat. She now called Mr.. Cut
ting name again and again, and no answer reached
her.
She raised the lantern above her head and
scanned the dark waters, but no Mr.. Cutting could
she see
She walked q little further on and suddenly, al
most at her feet, she came upon the object of her
search.
Caught by the arm in the roots Of large tree
which had been washed out by the stream, was Mr..
Chtting, apparently lifeless. Kneelng by him she
spoke his name time and time again, but he was
silent. Then she took hold of his shoulders and
with an almost superhuman effort, drew him up on
the bank. She brushed back his hair and pressed
her lips to his wet forehead Was he dead or alive?
She unfastened his wet clothes and put her ear
to his heart. 1t beat; but very family. Taking
off her waterproof she wrapped it around him.
Then she brought the horse, and after several un-
successful attempts she placed Mr.. Cutting on the
horses back and tied him there with her big
bingham apron.
Slowly she led the hose back towards home,
and after what seemed hours to her they reached
their home. She got Isaac into the house and to
bed. She sat up with him all night, doctoring him
as best she knew how, and trying to coax back the
life that had almost left him.
Towards morning he opened his eyes, and he
talked, but it was strange, wild story that he
told its meaning known to no one but himself.
With morning came Mr. Cuttings horse, which
Farmer Jones soon rode back to town for the
DOCTOR
For days, that heightened into weeks, Mr.. Cut
ting's life hung as by thread, and it was months
before he got well. During his sickness there was
one always around him whose gentle hand smoothed
his pillow and rubbed his aching head, and who
queted him when he was wild with fever; one
whose presence he might have mistaken for that of
an angel, had it not been for an ugly wound on her
forehead, a thing which angels are not supposed
to be ornamented with, When Mr.. Cutting at last
got well he was another man.
A part, at least, of his selfish, overbearng ma
ture had been lost in the muddy water of the Gap,
and the patience, land forbearance of noble, mis-
treated wife made him resolve to be better man.
The next summer Mr.. Cutting and Farmer Jones
met again in the cornfeld, and again held con-
versation on the 'woman question" Mr.. Cut
ting's remarks on this occasion surprised Farmer
Jones exceedingly, and when towards the close of
the conversation Mr. Cutting tapped the top board
of the fence right under Farmer Jones and told
him he had three, just three, good reasons why
women should vote, or do anything else they
wanted to, to help humanity, this gentleman's sur
prise knew no bounds. Mr. Cutting, however, did
not make his points, for about that time Mrs. Cut
ting drove in sight with her milkwagon, and he
jumped over the fence to 60 and take care of the
horses, what was much better I'm sure.

The supreme court decision rendering unconsti-
tutional the suffrage of women in Washington Ter
ritory, will be considered by fair minds as a very
strained affair at best That it is intended as par
tsan, or unjust, need not be assumed. 1t is sim
ply nonsensical. Judges may be very wise men,
sometimes they are not. But in the list of recent
judicial DECISIONS there has not appeared one more
curious and amusing. 1t is assumed by the court
that congress, in organizing the territory, and Civ
ing it power to grant suffrage to whom it would,
foreigners only excluded, intended by ''citizens'
only male citizens. 1t need not be said that such
technical and farfetched rulings would bring courts
into contempt it is enough to say they would
bring all legislation into contempt; it is enough to
say they would bring all legislation into confusion.

NEARLY million of women voted last Thursday
in England, Scotland and Wales. In all the cities
and other municipalities, in all the famous and his
toric towns, the women went to the polls, as for
many centuries they have had the power to do, and
cast their votes for town councillors and other
officers. In Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham,
Edinburgh, Inverness, etc.-"from John OGroats
to Lands Endo-whereyer municipal corpora
ton exists, women were free to cast their votes and
take their share in making the government they
live under. They were courteously treated their
right to vote was recognized by all, and all parties
sought their votes. Their presence at the polls
bred quetness and order"

IT will be remembered that remarkable article
appeared in the Chicago Law Times from the pen
of Judge Waite, entitled ''Who were the Voters in
the Early History of this Country" 1t is to be
reproduced in full in the columns of the Woman's
Journal-in answer to many requests for its re-
publication. Judge Waite in this article goes back
to the laws of the mother colonies for authority,
and it seems that not until the year 1880 does the
word 'mae" appear in the Constitution of Massa-
chusetts and much later in some of the other col
onies.

In order to establish fAe identity of the rightful holder they propose that his photograph and full description of him shall be affixed to the ticket, the association guaranteeing to expel any member who shall misuse it by transferring it to another, or who shall other- wise violate the agreement with the rail- roads. Such ticket would be of great con- venience to the commercial travellers and re- duce their travelling expenses. The railroads could well afford to accommodate them.
 The Chicago Staats Zeitung takes an inter- esting view of the Mills bill. It calls it 8 vic tory for the South, and says: After all the. changes and additions which have been made during it's consideration in the House, the Mills bill is simply heavy protective tariff for the South and destruction of the protec- tive tariff for the North. A swindling re- form measure like the Mills protective tariff for the South would have no other effect if it became a law than to destroy number of manufacturing industries in the North, to reduce in those which survived the wages of labor at least one-half, to drive hundreds of thousands of mechanics to farming and cat tie raising, to increase the production of breadstuffs and meats, which the continent of Europe will not buy, to an enormous amount, and to lower the prices of all agri- cultural products, and consequently impoE- erish the farmers as thoroughly as the peas ants of Roumania are now impoverished by free trade. ....... c-..t

The refusaI of the Sioux Indians at the Standing Rock agency to de driven or wheedled into relinquishing their lands has again called attention to the way in which the Indians have been treated by the govern msnt. The Sioux are afraid that the govern ment will not keep it's word with them. They dare not trust it to pay the money 1t offers nor to fulfill the terms of the agreement it proposes to make for the payment of other moneys ss the interest of fund proposed to be set apart for their benefit as conapensation for giving up the land. They know that the terms of this arrangement, if carried out, vsoald operate much to their advantage and prosperity, but they have no faith that it would be carried out and prefer to hold on to the land that they have rather than depend on promises that they believe would be broken. The government thus loses the op- portunity to put on the market nearly 6,060, GOO acres of desirable land and to put in op- eration plan that promises to do much to- ward the elevation and improvement of it's aborigine wards.
 This is a sharp and not very fattering commentary on the Indian "policy" of this great, glorious and comparatively free coun- try. This policy and it's results are forcibly set forth by the Springfield Union as follows: The government has treated the Indian as if honesty and honor were virtues that had no call for exercise in dealing with him. He has been tricked, deceived, cheated and betrayed; treaties through which concessions have been obtained from him have been regularly and systematically violated; every obligation on the part of the government has been regarded as SO much straw. The white race has been officially held up before him as race of cheats, swindlers and robbers, and the United States government has presented itself as the abettor of swind1ing and robbing. The nat ural result is that when a new proposition comes for the Indian to give up something to the white man, he places no credence in the fair promises that accompany it. He believes, he knows, that they will not be kept, and the shameful fact is that he has abundant justif- cation for his suspicion.
 Probably the Sioux will be persuaded to trade yet. But they won't lose anything by standing up boldly for their rights, as they have done
