A Rank Injustice,

There is growing rebellion among
thoughtful women, says Woman's Jour
nal, against the common assumption
that women exist simply for the sake Of
perpetuating the species. The ancient
German law inflicted a heavy fine upon
any man who killed a woman of child
bearing age, but it imposed only tri-
fling fine. equivalent to about two dol
lars of our money, for killing a woman
who was too young or too old to become
a mother. The spirit of the law still
survives among marrow minded biolo-
gists who apparently can not regard
woman except as female animal" to
use the emphatic language of the Eng
Eshwoman's Review. Dickens has de-
scribed a preparer of human skeletons
as rejected by his sweetheart on account
of his profession, the lady alleging that
she did not regard herself, and did not
wish to be regarded in that bony light"
Women of common-senSe and self-re-
spect object to being regarded from an
exclusively anatomical point of view. A
long step forward will have been taken
when the world fully realizes that wom-
en- are human: and not merely female;
that they are half the human race, and
not merely the means of continuing the
human race

NewsDapers in Public Schools.

The teacher who takes his texts from
the newspapers will enlist another pow
erful ally, and that is the parents and
families of his pupils. The business
man who can find no time for books,
eagerly peruses his daily paper and
takes keen delight in discussing it's news
or it's politics. Children who find it
difficult to attract their fathers assist
ance in their studies will find him i'm
mediately interested when the news is
the subject Of their inquiries. Another
feature of good paper, which should
commend itself to the teacher as an as
sistant, is the moral training which it
inculcates. All great reforms, all phil
anthropic movements, all patriotic pro-
jects find in the newspapers the strong
est advocates. Virtue is everywhere
praised, and vice held up to obloquy,
and the qualities of energy, activity and
industry, as exemplified in the career Of
successful men. clearly portrayed as the
secret of their success. - POttsville

The Last of the Burrs.

The last even distantrelativeo Of Aaron
Burr is dead. He was a halter. He was
born in Western New York as long ago
as 1910. and went to the metropolis to
learn the hatter's trade. He patented a
hat machine about 1852. Up to that
time hat bodies had been made by hand.
Burr's machine so revolutionized the
business that in 1856 5000, 900 hats were
made upon this machine. For many
years he virtually had a monopoly of the
hat trade. and when his patent expired,
in 1872, he had amassed great fortune.
His father was Aaron Burr's first cousin,
and his grandmother sister of JON
athan Edwards. He sprang from that
large Burr family that once lived near
CooperStown. Now that he is dead it
will be exceedingly hard to find another
man bearing the name Of Burr who is
even remotely connected with the ill
fated but brilliant man who was once
such power in political and social life.

The Growing Work Of . Noble Organ

At the sixteenth annual meeting Of
the Maine State Grange in Belfast the
other day. Ex-Governor Robbie. Master
of the State Grange, SAID in his annual
address:
The last, but not the least of the pur-
poses of the grange. according to its Off
cial declaration. is to incuIcate a proper
appreciation of the ability and sphere of
woman This was the browning work
of the founders of our order in admitting
her to full membership and TO equal po-
sition with the male sex, thus recognize
ing the equality of the two sexes Il
was noble departure from the senti-
ment and practice which had heretofore
ruled the organic law of all the promi-
nent secret associations of the land.
Our declaration of purposes thus gives
to woman the influence and power which
are needed in building up and protecting
an industry and pursuit in which she
has an equal interest. Woman occupies
prominent position on the ''hOme
farm" equal to its distinguished master,
and as 4 matron she discharges import
ant duties which no other person can do
as well; hence in the economy of the
grange we find that the equality Of the
two sexes is fully recognized The
grange door Swings inward at the
gentle touch of woman as the ruder
knocking of man" While we admit the
justice of the principle of equality, let
and not cease our efforts until the
American woman shall enjoy all the
rights of American citizenship.

In the long, long years ago, when wore the
loyal blue,
When the patriotic women, with their hearts so
good and true
Came to help us in our struggle, as no other
ones Could do
Then swore TO help my sisters, for they nursed
and brought me through.
CHORUS.
Yes, they nursed and brought me through,
when the fever laid me low.
In my dreams l now can see them, while
they're fitting to and fro.
Then i swore to help the women, for their
hearts were loyal too,
And my vote shall go to free them, for they
nursed and brought me through
On the field of Petersburg, midst the screaming
shot and she'll
Where the soul of man was tested, where the
bravest soldiers fell
There I saw the women kneeling, with their
hearts so good and true,
Dy the bleeding, wounded soldiers, and they
nursed and brought them through.
CHORUS.
On the dome in Washington, there the goddess
proudly reigns.
She's the emblem of our freedom, while our
women are in chains;
And her light from Bedloe's tower CLEANS in
mockry DER the sea,
While our mothers, wives and daughters hum
bly, beg for liberty.
CHORUS
Let us stand in solid phatanx, every man who
wore the blue,
Tor our mothers, wives and sweethearts, who
to were tried and true:
For no better friends. with truer hearts, on
earth We'll ever find:
We will not forget the kindness Of the girls we
left behind

WIN Two Ears Are Necessary.

Sound travels by waves radiating from
a central point of disturbance, just as
waves radiate when stone is dropped
into still water. So far as the hearing
of each individual is concerned, these
waves move in direct line from the
cause of the sound to his ear, the impact
being greatest in the ear that rs nearest
the source. This being the case per-
son who has totally lost the sense Of
hearing in one ear, although he may
imagine that the defect is of but little
consequence, can not locate the direc-
ton OF sound to save his life, even
when the center Of disturbance is quite
close to him. Blind persons learn to es-
innate distances in a surprising brief
period after losing their sight, but ex-
perts on diseases of the ear say that per-
sons wholly deaf in one ear can never
learn to estimate the direction Of
sound.-St. Louis Republic.
