lars in claims managed by the firm so
impressed him that in the last mo.
ments of a sudden and fatal illness
in 1854, he made him executor of his
estate and the guardian of the inter.
ests of his wife. The wife of Samuel
F. Miller, Miss Ballinger, OF a noted
Kentucky family of that name, with
whom Mr.. and Mrs. Reeves were on
the closest relations OF affection, was
then in the last stages pulmonary dis
ease. As the storms OF the winter,
following the death of Mr. Reeves,
were setting in, Mrs. Miller too pass
ed away. The widower went on
with the business of the firm and the
widow returned east to her parental
home, leaving her estate in the hands
of her late husbands partner, whore
he had placed it in his dying moments.
Three years after this sad breaking
up of families and separation of
friends the former partner in the bust
ness firm of Reeves & Miller, made
suit to the widow, who was then in
the prime of her womanhood and
beauty at 90, while he was just 49,

in 1857, which seemed almost like
renewing the old partnership.
The couple retur ned to Keokuk,
where the widow of l. evils Reeves,
as the bride of Samuel F. Miller, was
once more heartily welcomed. Many
times the people OF Iowa tried to force
civic honors upon her husband, first
as National Representative aud then
as United States Senator. When
consulted she invariably said: "No;
why trife your life away on such un-
satisfactory honors." 10 deptation

Last year President Cleveland did wise and
farsighted thing when he paraded his beautiful
wife about the country, winning votes for himself
by her smiles and hearty handshakes. If he had
waited twelve month before he took this journey,
his object would have been far too apparent. He
builded not better than he knew, but judiciously.
So well, in fact, that in order to off set his tri-
umphs the opposing party now publishes scandal
Gus tales of his abuse of this beautiful young wife,
knowing how deep such thrust must pierce the
hearts of the people. She has been used to build
up; she can, on the other hand, be utilized to
drag down.
Mrs. Cleveland is the typical American woman

proud of. 1t shows conclusyely what can be
made of simple American girl, with an endow

shall for four years. occupy the position of first
lady in the land-this land of critics and cruel

occasion for aught than praise. She cannot be

BROWNING FRIENDS.

Among the CHRONICLES valued exchanges is that
in Chicago. Its contributors are among the liter
airy lights of the land. Its editorials are succnct
and logical and its sentiments strike out from the
shoulder in way to make themselves felt and I'M
derstood. America is an open opponent of the
woman question as it stands to-day America is
one of those valued helpers to the cause, without
which it would long since have died natural
death. What fermentation is to new wine, what
fuel is to the boiling pot, such is America and all
challengers of its class to the woman question.
Under such wholesome agitation the unpopular
cause is gaining followers daily. The ranks are
filing rapidly-and filling from the homes. BY
and by the mooted question will no longer be re-
garded as heresy but a principle for action.
There is a class of women in the word-the best
women they are-who are so content with their lot
that affairs of public interest appear as interopcrs
upon the sanctity of feminine comfort. They are
the bitterest opponents of equal rights. Social
and domestic duties occupy all their time and at
tention; and with this class it is most difficult to
deal. 1t is only in the light of challenge they
can be reached Therefore the radical, anti-suf-
frage paper comes in at point where aid is most
needed
Woman with the strong right arm of loving
husband to protect her knows she has all the
rights she wants. The franchise will put no dol
lars in her purse. The husband who stands as an
mmoyabe barrier between her and want, who

WOMAN IN POLITICS.

Although woman is incapable of casting vote,
vet when she can be of assistance in political
race she is handed into the arena with all the grace
imaginable. In fact it seems to add interest and
zest to campaign-and feminine enthusiasm is
never discouraged. We read of the Chicago vet
Grams calling upon Mrs. John A. Logan, and of
her receiving the heartiest reception ever accorded
any woman in Chicago. We read of her express
sion of opinion of General Alger in associated press
dispatches, and her prophecy that if he is nomin-
ated he will be elected. We read of the return of
her old time energy and her entering into the can
yass for this old friend Of her husband, Strange

THE PROHIBITION CONVENTION.

The woman suffrage plank in the platform adopt
ed by the Prohibition convention, recently held at
Indianapolis, Ind, is the theme of much discussion
as to whether or not it will strengthen the Prohibit
ton party. There will, of course be vast diver
sity of opinion upon the subject. Meanwhile the
clause adopted reads innocently and rather vaguely
thus;
5. That the right of suffrage rests on no mere
accident of race, color, sex or nationality; and
that where, from any cause, it has been withheld
from citizens who are of suitable age, and mentally
and morally qualified for the exercise of an intei-
gent ballot, it should be restored by the people
through the legislatures of the several states, on
such educational basis as they may deem wise.
Whether Or not its adoption is to do the party
service, its advocates were honored by right
royal reception at the convention. Mrs. Merri-
wether was listened to with the utmost respect and
attention, while Miss Wizards reception was in
descrbable, and her remarks were interrupted by
frequent and prolonged applause. The two old
parties, she said, were big, not great multtudn-
Gus, not masterful. Their tissues were adipose
not muscular. The tissues of the one were made
literally out of whole cloth of all-wool tariff, war
ranted to wash yet in one more campaign, and the
ensanguined shirt, warranted never to be washed
at all. Those of the other were spos and bour-
bonism At st. Louis and at Chicago not wo-
man would be in the delegations Not word
about the home would be uttered.
Miss Willard dwelt at some length upon woman's
patriotism on either side of the late war; and said
"The greatest party seats these women side by
side tonight, and we all wear our snowy badge Of
peace above the hearts that hate no MORE while
we clasp hands in a compact never 10 be broken,

OVERWORKED.

Up with the birds in the early morning
The dew drop CLOVIS like precious gem;
Beautiful tints in the sky are dawning,
But she's never moment to look at them
The men are wanting their breakfast early;
She must not lnger she must not wait;
For words that are sharp and looks that are surly
Are what men give when the meals are late.
Oh, glorious colors the clouds are turning,
II she would but look over hill and trees;
But here are the dishes and here is.the churnng-
Those things must always yield to these.
The world is filled with the wine of beauty,
II she could but pause and drink II in
But pleasure, she says must wait for duty
Neglected work is committed SIM
The day grows hot, and her hands grow weary;
Oh, for an hour to cool her head
without the birds and winds go CHEEKY,
But she must get dinner and make her bread.
The busy men in the hay field working
If they saw her sitting with idle hand
Would think her lazy, and call it Sinking,
And she never could make them understand.
They do not know that the heart within her
Hungers for beauty and things sublime,
They only know that they want their dinner,
Plenty of it, and just "on time"
And after the sweeping and churning and baking,
And dinner dishes are all put by,
She sits and sews, though her head is aching,
Till time for supper and ''chores" draws nigh.
Her boys at school must look like others,
She says, as she patchesstheir frocks and hose,
For the world is quick to censure mothers
For the least neglect of their chidrens clothes.
Her husband comes from the field of labor,
He gives no praise to the weary wife;
She's done no more than has her neghbor;
TITS the lot of all in country life
But after the strife and weary tussle
With life is done, and she lies at rest,
The nations brain and heart and muscle
Her sons and daughters-shall call her best;
And think the sweetest Joy in heaven,
The rarest bliss of eternal life,
And the fairest crown of ALL will be given
Unto the waywom farmers wife. Il Ella Whee
