AFTER EXERCISE.

When men and maidens seek the sport
They find around the tennis court,
Or when upon the diamond field
Their bats the champion players WELD.
When walks, or rides. or bending oars,
Bring perspiration from the pores,
Then people all should bear in mind
The best and purest soap to find,
For after some such exercise
The system most in danger lies.
Absorbing then both swift and sure
The poisons found in soaps impure,
And those who keep for face and hands
Or general use as time demands,
The Ivory SOAP, need have no fear
From exercise throughout the year.

FRANCE AND OUR HOGS.
MINISTER REID'S LETTER STIRs UP
THE PARIsIAN PRESS.

Nearly Every Paper in the City in
Favor Of Ending the Prohibition
Several of Them Point Out That Re.
talietion by This Country Would
Greatly Hurt France.
PARIS, Aug S0.-The Journal desD Debats.
in publishing letter of Whitelaw Reid,
the United States minister, to NJ. Pilot, min
lister Of foreign affairs. concerning the pro-
hibition of American pork, saws: "The
French prohibition Of American pork seems
unnecessary, in view of its having last year
received the highest prize at the exposition.
Under these circumstances we think, in fact.
we know, that the government will be dis
posed to remove the prohibition, for the
meat inspection bill introduced by Sena-
tor Edmunds, and the sanitary examina-
tion which the Americans propose offer
every guarantee to the French consumer. 1t
IS improbable, however, that the French
government win Withdraw the prohibition
before tue reassembling of the chambers.
The Temps, discussing the same subject,
says that Minister Reids letter may be
considered as in some sense an expose Of the
motives that led to the recent measure of
retaliation.
RETALIATION WOULD BE COSTLY.
lie Paris says: "If measures of retalia-
tion should be vigorously enforced it will
cut off the sale of 400, 600, 600 francs, worth
of French products annually-for ioh an
interest it IL well worth while to sacrifice
something. The public health will not be
damaged by admitting few tons Of pork"
The Figaro thinks that France was
wrong both in theory and In practice in
prohibiting the importation Of American
pork, but it holds that it is now impossibls
to move backward, and especially is 10 i'm
possible TO take the attitude of yielding
before economic principles. "What is
needed, >" says the Figaro, sis simply courage
to wait and see what the results are going
TO be for France. We cannot prevent any
person closing his doors to our products, but
we can in return not open our own doors too
widely to him.
THE GOVERNMENT MAY BE CONVINCED.
The Moniteur UnieerseI points to the
recent address Of NJ. Rlbot as proving thab
the government is convinced that it must
abandon the idea of prohibition This
conclusion, it says, was reached after the
government had hea from NJ Poustan,
the French minister at Washington, that
if France persisted In prohibiting the i'm
portation of American pork, it would have
to submit TO a heavy advance in duties on
It's products, particularly silk, wines and
works Of art
La Ldnterne asks what the French swine
growers now think of tue situation Co which
their legislation has led. 1t believes they
will probably be soon convinced that there
is as little wisdom in protecting French
swine as IN the beet-growers and distilers
| putting prohibitive duties on American corn
if the result is to lose their own market
The SeicLe. after quoting Minister Reid's
letter, says: 1--WE can do no hing but ap-
| prove absolutely the language of the United
States minister. The prohibition against
American pork was fault, and we have to
pry for it too dearly not to wish to put an
end very soon to such q measure"

Each ether.

Each ether.
SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Aug 30 The con-
test between the Southern Pacific railroad
and those of its engineers who are mem-
bers of the brotherhood has assumed a
new phase. 1t is now strictly dispute
between the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers and the Brotherhood Of Locomo-
tive Firemen. Ii came about in this way:
A man named Richie, who was appointed
engineer Of "a passenger train, and TO whose
appointment the brotherhood of en- gineers
is so strenuously ob1ecting, was fireman
and member of that organization.
HIS REMOVAL DEMANDED.
The engineers demand that he be removed
and that member of their brotherhood be
put in his place. This the road refuses to-
do. The engineers have sent on a commit
tee to San Francisco to confer with the
brotherhood Of the coast, and If their stand
is indorsed and the road refuses to come to
time they say they will strike and stop
every train between New Orleans and San
Francisco. The Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen has taken a hand and propose to
stand by Ritchie. 1t, too, will send on a
committee to San Francisco to confer with
the western members of the order. Ii their
Endorsement OF Ritchie is sustained they
will defy the engineers to tie up the road.

Since the report of the attitude of the

suffrage idea has become the prevailing
subject of comment among the delegates

known as to the strength of woman
suffrage in the plans of the convention, a
