A spring medicine is needed by every
one. Winter food, largely consisting Of
salt meats and animal fats, causes the
liver to become disordered and the blood
impure, hence the necessity of cleansing
medicine. The best is Ayers Sarsaparilla.

Women are working their way into
the commercial travelling business very
fast, they are determined and persistent
and it will not be very long, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer, before they stand
on an equal footing with the men. OF
course, equal recognition in business
means equal recognition in wages, and
in few years woman will occupy the
position she has been struggling for, and
between her and man there will be no
distinction. 1t will make big change
in many ways in the relation between
man and woman. The law of compensa-
ton will get in its inevitable work and
revolutionize things. The burden Of
social expense, for instance, falls on
man; the balls, concert and theater
tickets, drives, sleighing parties, sup
pers and all that sort of thing come from
him. Under the present distribution of
expense and with equal opportunity in
money making, woman would possess an
advantage which nature will not allow
to any class. Mans. advantage in that
respect has been offset by the extra ex-
penscs he has always been subjected to,
and rs woman enlarges her liberty and
sphere of action these OUTLAWS will be
forced upon herself. 1t is in the nature
of things that the equality talked about

How to Reform . Drunkard.

An unknown writer has furnished a
contemporary with the following; Let
me tell 'Drunkard's Wife how to make
a tea for her husband. Take two pounds
of bayberry bark, one pound of ginger
root and two ounces each of cloves and
cayenne pepper. Pulverize all finely
and mix them we'll. Now put one-half
teaspoonful Of this powder and tea
spoonful of sugar into teacup and pour
it half full of boiling water; let it stand
few moments and fill the cup with
milk; hot water will do if milk can not
be obtained. Part of this is to be taken
Immediately on arising in the morning
and the rest just before meal time.
Those who have been accustomed to the
excessive use of ardent spirits will find
that warm, healthy glow spreads from
the stomach over the whole system, ac-
companied by desire for food instead
of liquor. Take this two or three times
day, or even oftener, at first. if the
craving forstrong drink isintense, using
it less often as soon as possible With
this help drunkard' may reform if he
really cares to do so.''

RUM AND CRIME.
The Certain Cause Of Want and Woe, Dis
iI ease and Death.

The Certain Cause OF Want ana Woe, Dis.
-f ease and Death.
The poisonous influence of rum enters
all the relations of life. 1t invades the
halls of legislation, the courts, the
church and family circle, and every
where sin and crime are its legitimate
offspring, the prison and scaffold the in
sigma of its privileged power.
Forty years ago stood by the coffin of
fellow student, a classmate and friend;
our regard for each other had been like
that Of Jonathan and David. He was a
young man Of fine appearance and great
intellectual ability, beloved by all who
knew him and the idol of an aged Chris
tan mother, the hope and promise of
her declining years. But in an un-
guarded moment, led by the fascinating
influence of the wine cup, he commenced
the downward career incident to its al
lurements: he trod the path so many
had followed before him. The remon-
strances of friends were of no avail.
The tears and prayers of heart-broken
mother could not save her Maynard boy
from drunkard's fate. Vainly he tried
to keep his oft-formed resolutions of
total abstinence. At one time he was
an able advocate Of the cause Of Temper
ance--yet he died drunkard's death.
AS | stood by his coffin and looked
upon the, pallid features of the Dead
and thought of his many noble quail
ties and his affection for myself, my
grief was inconsolable. The dumb elo-
quence of death appeals to our emotion
al nature far more effectively than the
oratory Of the living. And although his
lips were silent forever, yet the words
they had once uttered seemed to be
more firmly fixed upon my memory be-
cause should hear his voiceInO more
Again l seemed to hear his agonizing
prayer for,delivefance from the tempta-
ton that beset him on every side, and
from the power of the uncontrollab BILE
appetite he could not resist. Again his
voiceless lips seemed to plead to me for
assistance, to help him in his struggles
to conquer his enemy and escape the in
evitable fate before him. l knew he
would have done better if he could;
knew that in him strong intellect had
been governed by a feeble will; that the
temptations established by law had
wrecked life full of hope and premise;
that the licenses of our courts had been
accessory to his death of agony and
shame, and while stood by bier

SEX IN EDUCATION.
Proper Instruction for tho Formation
Character.

Proper Instruction for tho FORMATION
Character.
1t is commonly accepted view. writes
Mary z. Cardwill, in Education, that
the chief end of woman's school educa-
ton is refinement; that of mans prac-
tical utility. How else can we account
for the practice in many ''well-to-do"
families of sending the girls to high
schools and colleges, while the boys are
permitted to grow up uneducated? For
what other reason are art and music, or
accomplishment still thought more
suitable for girls than for boys? why
else are girls still allowed to neglect
solid intellectual requirements for the
sake of these so-called accomplish
ments? Ideal education is the develop
ment of the individual, and the best re-
suits can be attained only by the indi-
vidual training of every boy and OF
every girl. Until the millennium comes
little nearer, however, children will
be educated in masses, and natural apti-
tudes can be only in a measure consid-
cred. But while an ideal standard in
methods is so slowly approached as to
seem little more than fair dream OF .
far distant future, the greatest aim OF
all systems of education is after ali, tho
formation of character. With this aim
in view, it is difficult to understand why
the question of sex should enter into
education.
/ Is it not just as important to boys as
to girls to be gentle, thoughtful, tender
and virtuous? Is it not as important to
girls as to boys to be honest, prompt in
keeping engagements, self-helpful and
useful? Why should not the study Of
the classics give the same fine literary
tastes, deep culture and peculiar mental
development to the one sex as to the
other? Why should not the same dis
cipline of mind, and development Of
practical sense, accrue alike to both
sexes from the study Of mathematics?
Why should not girls as we'll rs boys be
given the benefit of lessons 80 important
to life, and acquire Che same habits Of
accuracy, to be learned from the thorough
study Of natural science? Why, again,
should not boys, whose life experiences
make the saving influence of personal
refinement peculiarly necessary. be
taught music, French, drawing, decor
alive art, and other things supposed to
be SO important in the education OF Q
refined young lady?

Wyoming leads all the States by be-
ing the first to apply the great princi-
Piles of the Declaration of Independ-
ence. BY a vote of eight to one, it
writes into It's constitution equal politi-
cal rights for men and women. This
grand historic credit, says Lucy Stone,
in Woman's Journal, will forever belong
to the young State which first proved
the principle by twenty years Of
actual practice, and then by great vote
wrote into its Constitution and into its
Bill of Rights.
The Suffragists of Illinois, in session
when the good news arrived, sent 10Y
GUS greeting" to the Governor of WyOm-
ing, and the great audience OF the w.
c. T. U. assembled in Chicago rose and
sang:
praise God from whom all blessings flow"
Wherever the English language 10
spoken, this great step of advancing
civilization, gained after forty years Of
bloodless warfare, will be hailed with
Joy by every friend Of justice. Thank
God for Wyoming, for her brave and
true men and women who stood together
in support of the great principle Of "the
consent Of the governed"
Somewhere the stones are lying that
will hereafter be piled up to mark the
spot where men first trusted that prin-
ciple which God has made true He has
also made safe. The fact marks an
epoch. 1t is the beginning Of the end Of
the long subsection of women. Now let
us strive to make the other States fol-
low the example Of Wyoming, the young
pioneer OF the West.

The Little Springs.

Out in the meadows where tufted
grass is growing, there by the hillside
at the root of an ancient tree, yonder in
a field where the cattle go to drink, and
at other familiar places, the fountains
bubble and sing and start of on their
cheerful mission. Their waters are
alike cool and sweet, though their hab-
its and manners are different. At one
place they silently leak from the soil,
as If trying to get into their channels
without notice; at another they gush
forth with gurgle IS If they wished to
be known they were coming. Here they
boil up through the sand, appearing to
include a little art with their volume Of
nature, and there, freely and rapidly,
they hurry of over shelving rock.
Beautiful to look at and listen to, they
are still more delightful to meet on .
warm summer day, when without .
grudge they give their best to him who
will stoop to take it. And what COM
forts they are capable Of! and how many
of all classes Of people-old and young.
rich and poor, working and playing
stop beside them and feel the thrill Of
pleasure they are capable Of producing.
If only all people will learn to love
them more and more, amendments"
will not be necessary, nor will the world
be filled with the wild passions that
come from invented drink. 1t is just
like the Scriptures to represent the Cos
pei, and salvation, and the Saviour him
self, by that which is so bright, so pure,
so helpful as the "little springs that

A CURIOUS ERROR.

Alcohol Ever and Always = Paralyzant-
1t Always Lowers, Destroys and Breaks
Down.
1t is one of the curious errors that
alcohol stimulates the imagination and
gives clearer, more practical insight
into the relation Of events of life. The
whirl of thought, reused up by the in
creased circulation of the blood in the
brain, is not imagination; it is not a SUI
perior insight or conception of the rela-
lation of events, but is rapid reproduc.
ton Of previous thoughts, soon merging
into confusion. The inebriate never
creates any new ideas or new views; all
his fancies are tumultuous, blurred and
barren. The apparent brilliancy is only
the fash of mania, quickly followed by
dementia. Alcohol always lowers the
brain capacity and lowers the power Of
discriminating the relation of ideas and
events. After few periods of intoxica-
ton the mind under the influence Of
spirits is blank, blurred page. The
poets and orators who are popularity
supposed to have made great efforts
under the influence of alcohol, only re-
peated what had been said before in a
tangled delirium of expression. The
physicians who are supposed to have
greater skill when using spirits have
paralyzed their higher brain centers,
and have lost all sense Of fear or appre-
citation of the consequences of their acts,
and hence act more automatically, sim
ply doing what they have done before
without any clear appreciation or dis.
elimination Of the results. The inebri.
ate is the best Of all imaginative per.
sons and the one in whom the higher
brain forces Of Judgment, reason and
conception are the first to give way. The
man who uses spirits to give mental
force and clearness is doing the worst
thing possible to destroy this effect AL
cohol is ever and always paralyzant
1t never creates any thing; it never
gives strength or force that did not exist
before; it never gives clearer concep'
ton and power Of execution, but al.
ways lowers, destroys and breaks down.
