A Great Event.

Wyoming Territory. after twenty
years experience of woman suffrage.
has adopted State constitution which
guarantees personal, legal and political
equality to women. This is the great
est event that has occurred in American
history since the Declaration of Inde-
pendence and the adoption of the Fed
eral Constitution. Only the Emanci-
patton Proclamation and the Fifteenth
Amendment approach it in Importance.
But while those great acts emancipated
and enfranohised a race, the act
of Wyoming emancipates and enfran-
chises the better half of mankind. 1t
establishes. for the first time in history,
a true Republic based uron the divine
declaration of right: ''God made man
in his own image; male and female Gre
ated He them and gave them dominion.
Twenty years hence. the worldwide
significance of this event will be more
fully recognized. .-Woman's Journal.

Theory and Practice.

II is not difficult to conceive that,
for MANY reasons, a man writes much
better than he lives. For. without en-
tering into refined speculatiOns. it may
be shown to be much easier to design
than to perform. A man proposes his
schemes of life in a state of abstrao-
tion and disengagement exempt from
the enticements of hope, the solicita-
tions of affection. the opportunities Of
appetite. or the depressions of fear.
and is in the same state with him that
teaches upon the land the art OF navi-
cation. to whom the sea is always
smooth and the wind always prosper
Gus. Nothing is more unjust, how
ever uncommon. than to charge with
hypocrisy him that expires zeal for
those virtues which he neglects to
practice; since he may be sincere, con-
vinced OF the advantages OF conquer
ing his passions, without having yet
obtained the victory; as a man may be
confident OF the advantages of voy-
age or a journey. without having
courage or industry to undertake it.
and may honestly recommend to
Others those attempts which he neg
Iects hfmself.-N. Y. Ledger.

SOME ODD REMEDIES,
How Asue Was Treated and Cured in the
Days of Yore.

How ASue Was Treated and Cured in the
Days of Yore.
Ague was much more prevalent in the
old days, when so many thousand acres OF
what is now good arabic land were lying in
waste marshes, reeking with malarial
vapor. But the sufferer was not without
choice of other remedies which, if their
efficacy was at all in proportion to their
simplicity, left little to be desired. If he
were unable to obtain the chips of a gib-
bet, or objected to them on superstitious
grounds, many other courses were open to
lam. Thus, he is directed to have a cake
baked of sailed bran; while the fit is on he
is to break up the cake and give the pieces
to dog. The disease will then leave him
and stick to poor Tray. Another authority
recommends him to seal up spider in a
goose-quill and hang the quill round his
neck, allowing it to reach as low as the pit
of the stomach. Aspen leaves were good
against ague. And this reminds me of one
curious principle which appears to have
Influenced the Ieech strongly in his choice
Of remedies-the so called Doctrine of
Signatures" To the old physician all
plants seemed to possess such curative
powers as would render him valuable as
sistance If he only knew the ailments in
which particular plant, or part of plant
might be prescribed with propriety. His
peculiar method of reading between the
lines in the book of nature soon enabled
him to surmount this difficulty to his own
satisfaction, if not to the advantage of the
patient. The shape of a leaf or flower, it's
color and a hundred other tribes were
gladly accepted as indications of the medic
inal virtues upon which he could most
confdchtly rely. Thus, nettle tea was sure
to prove helpful in case of nettle rash;
the heart-shaped leaves of the ordinary
wood sorrell We're remedial in cardiac dis
ease; and turmeric, on account OF its deep
yellow color, was Of great re putation in the
treatment Of jaundice. Is it any wonder.
then, that the quivering leaves Of the aspen
were esteemed Us a cure for ague.-Au the

Pretty Gowns for House Wear.

Now that winter is approaching.
women everywhere are considering
necessary changes in the wardrobe.
Women in cities usually pay more at
tention to indoor dress than women in
the country, partly because they pi,r-
ticipate less in the household work;
partly because they are more likely TO
be seen by callers. There is no rea-

FREEDOM FOR WOMEN.
Free Suffrage for Free Women In . Free
Country.

Free Suffrage for Free Women In . Free
Country.
It does seem, says a writer In the
Christian Advocate, that it Is not In the
spirit of our free government ques-
ton at all of enfranchising the women.
but one of disfranchising them? The
answer is easy enough why we disfran.
chise idiots and criminals and barbara
ans. but when one undertakes to answer
why we would disfranchise the women
he is sure to stammer and irrelevantly
twaddle about ''women's sphere. f"
Women all over our country have
taken their chance for existence with
the men. They are driven into all oc-
cupations from sheer necessity. and We
willingly let them go on unmolesteu
with their toll: but the moment they
reach for the ballot in social sell de.
fense we become suddenly nervous and
solicitious of their delicacy and femin-
unity. Is it not a little ludicrous,
through? Who constituted us lords OF
creation, such lordly lords. anyhow?
A trite but pertinent question.
The result or effect of women's votes
has no more to do with the question
than the result of mems votes. And to
say that women ought not to help TO
make laws because men only can en-
force them. as was urged by a promi-
nent anti-suffrage woman in answer to
Miss Frances +. Willard. is no reason
why they should not exercise such
rights as citizens any more than it
would be for men to make laws that
other men would not enforce. The ar
gument is foreign to the issue-but it
is in keeping with all of them.
1t might in this connection be well
to ask. Why in this free country should
we ever be afraid of freedom; unless it
is that a little freedom-like a little
learning-is a dangerous thing? Then
let us 60 in for free suffrage for free
women.

husband acting as the family cashier
who can more conveniently receive and

A common fund is all right if it really
is common: if each feels an equal right
to its use with due regard to the pre-
servation of the income. II the family
is really prosperous financially, it ought
to be the wife's privilege as well as the
husbands to subscribe large sums to
good works.
