read more, seek the company of the refined and

more agreeable companions than ever. Some of
the peasantest, brightest and handsomest women
are those whom trials have marked and spared
not, to whom the glory and peace and beauty of
the sunset of their lives is in strange contrast to
its dark and murky morning. With advancing
maturity they have gathered wisdom. And the
years have brought an added charm of expression,
softened tone of voice that daily gives an exposi
ton of the wonderful and magnificent storehouse
of knowledge gathered long and slowly through
many patient years. And sometimes we catch a
glimpse, through the beautiful eyes aglow with
soul, of the "beautiful light that neer was seen
on land nor sea-" Reverently we behold the
beautiful inner temple which the years cannot de-
stroy, and there steals over us the consciousness
that '1gray hairs are as lovely as GOLDEN" that
it does not matter if the years be many or few SO

WOMAN'S CHRISTIAN TEMPERANCE UNION.

The state convention, held at Hope, Ark, was
attended by thirty-four accredited delegates and
officers, representing more unions and larger
part of the state than any previous one. The sec
ond session we welcomed our dear sisters, Mrs.
Lide Merwether, president of Tennessee, and Mrs.
Mary Read Goodale, of Baton Rouge, La, Ma
tional Organizer, who were helpful to us in the
routine business, and whose addresses at night
were listened to by large and attentive audiences,
and at least one opposer who came from curiosity
was converted.
The reports from the corresponding secretary,
Mrs. T. A. Dunlap, showed large increase in the
paid membership, with number of new Unions.
The reports from superintendent of departments
gave evidence of much earnest work done on the
different lines of work, which must benefit many
directly and many more indirectly--all done for
the bettering Of humanity, for making safer paths

Balzar, the beauty worshipper, has said "give
me the woman of thirty" but later writer, So
cial philosopher and scientist, goes beyond the
French novelist by twenty years and gives the
palm to the woman of fifty. He says: cit is the
mistake of gddy adolescence or sand blind conceit
to suppose that woman of fifty cannot be
exquistey beautiful, cannot command man
throughout the whole range of nature, cannot take
up all the gladness of life and beautifully radiate
it again for him and Others Sunbeams flash and
sparkle in every word of the above as bright and
beautiful as the true pure lines of some women we
have known. Every sentence teens with grand
possibilities and hopeful expectations. Sunlight,
moonlight, starlight, all are there. step beyond

young child is constant pleasure and de-
light, CLEAN of the spring day sunshine, breath
of the balmy May day breeze, a note from the
carol of natures song BIRDS message from the
realms beyond the bluey a trust of one soul
from the Divine Creator. How shall you receive
the charge, and what render at the day of judy
ment?
Does it never occur to those who meet and lift
up their voices in praise of Almighty God that
with all the praise of the hosts that might be
gathered together they could not add one jot to
the power and greatness of his Divine Majesty,
and that they could better be doing his commands,
as, for example, "Feed my sheep" Humanity
was the religion of Christ, the example sent for
men to follow, and those who live to follow His
meek and lowly example have rendered unto the
Divine Creator the most perfect praise.
A man or woman who is literally endowed with
tact, and a good heart, has little need to study
etiquette from books. True polteness is founded
upon the Golden Rule, and those who do unto
others as they would that others should do unto
them are rarely, if ever, impolite. "True polite
ness" says an authority, lis always so busy
thinking of Others it has no time to think of it.

and make Others happy are sure in the end to find
pleasure and happiness for themselves.

sWHAr event of Importance happened last
week?'' asked Little Rock school teacher a few
days ago. s'Pease am, | know" said the small
boy at the foot of the class "John Sullivan got
licked" The small boy never for an instant re-
moves his admirng mental eye from the triumph
ant march of his hero. Alas, he is in disgrace
and the small boy knows why, and in his heart he
feels contempt for the fallen giant. The physi-
oogy that he studies in school, which now and
then runs in bit of information on the temper
ance question, has told him why. The physiology
doesn't call it temperance, but it teaches him
in an all too unwary manner that alcoholic stimu-
lants make the muscles soft, and his own mind he
grasps the idea when the teacher tells him of the
pugiist's prolonged debauches, that he has ruined
his muscles. Nothing excites boyish admiration
and envy more than display of muscle; so out
of the downfall of the great American prize
fighters reputation, muscle and fortune there is to
be evolved moral which may not be a bad thing
after all.

IT seems to have been the intention of the more
progressive suffragists to slip plank of their own
into the platform of the Union Labor party. They
were ably represented at the Cincinnati conven-
ton by half dozen lady delegates, whose speeches
before that body gave ample proof of the wonder
full advance being made by thinking women to-
wards the goal of equal rights. But their efforts
on this occasion proved only a little short of a fail
ure Their clause, which is the TENTH reads thus:
ssIhe right to vote is inherent in citizenship, ire
spective of sex, and is properly within the province
of state legislation. A shaky plank. 1t doesn't
sound as if it were nailed down at either end and
would probably fly up were the women to venture
stand upon it.

HEART OF OAK, o. X.

The Waco Examiner finds its heart Of
oak plank fully endorsed by the McLen-
nan county democracy. For some weeks
the Examiner kept at the head Of its
editorial columns the following:
''Resolved, That while we concede
that the issue of prohibition az submit
ted to the people last year was non-psr-
tisan and SO accepted by both sides, the
organization OF a prohibition party I'm
the state and nation and it's persistent
war upon democracy, demands OF the
democratic party prompt reputation
OF the principles of prohibition and q
condemnation Of that and all other
forms Of sumptuary legislation, which
vex the citizens and interfere with indi-
vidual liberty"
The convention met, the Examiners
position was endorsed. The. party took
its stand upon the resolution, and now
the Examiner reads out of the party all
who will not hold with it in this matter,
as follows:
"The lines have been formed. Mo-
Lehman county democracy knows where
IL stands; those who do not stand with it
have four other parties to choose from;
II this can't satisfy them they can step
out and play mug wump."
This is square toed to say the least. 1t
brings the division SO long hoped for by
those who have prayed for letting up
OF the iron hand of democratic misrule
In Texas. The democracy are at war in
their own camp, ard wise republicans
who understand their business and are
not misled by speclous cries and false
issues will keep hands off while the two
factions fight it out.

THE fight wakes warm in the demo-
cratic camp over tariff and free trade
policies as governing that political host.
1t is safe always for the opposition
especially II in a minority, to let the
other fellows do their own fighting.
Free trade republicans are scareer than
hens teeth In clucking time, and 1t is
not necessary that any special attention
should be given to the incubation of
protection principles by republican jour-
mails when the democracy are entering
this field on their own account and do
ing battle for true republican principles.
To take a conspicuous hand In this fight
would only stampede some democrats
who are swallo wing the protection hook
greedily, and 1t is not wise to do SO. So
long as they are landed in the protec-
ton net next November it matters little
who pulls the net to shore.
