A Good Suggestion.


The following good advice is given by
Lucy Stone, in Woman's Journal:
Woman suffragists should take les
son from the farmers. At their meeting
in Springfield, 1t was reported that
10000 farmers had pledged themselves
to vote only for such members Of the
Legislature as will be true to agricultur-
al interests. They voted irrespective
Of party and as consequences they
elected men who will support the rights
of farmers in the Legislature.
Women, having no votes, have no
members OF the Legislture elected by
them with view to special care OF
their interests. But women in all the
States whose Legislatures are in session
this winter can personally ace the Senator
and Representative IF their district, find
out their opinions, and earnestly en-
deavor to have them see the clear justice
of woman suffrage. Much can be done
in this way. A great deal Of misunder-
standing and prejudice on this subject
is done away with or outgrown. Every
body now knows that woman suffrage Is
coming: that it is only . question Of
time when men will make haste to re-
lieve women from the helplessness and
stigma which always befall q disfran-
chised class. When that time comes,
men will claim that they were always
woman suffragists, as they now do
that they were always anti-slavery. In
the meantime, each Representative and
Senator should be seen, and, il need be,
should be supplied with suffrage litera-
ture as . means to clear and correct judg-
ment on the subject. Do not let US fail
Of doing this.

"A MisconceptiOn.

It is an extraordinary misconception.
says Alice Stone Blackwell, in Woman's
Cycle. to imagine that women are liable
to express the unbiased and unbribed
truth concerning our political system
and our laws" more independently and
infiuentially now than they would be il
they could vote. In the first place, so
long as it is held that women have moth
ing to do with politics, that it is outside
OF their sphere. etc, they will be less
inclined to interest themselves in public
questions, and their opinion on such
questions will be held in slight esteem
on account OF their presumable ignor-
anoe and inexperiencc. In the second
place, they can not make their opinions
felt on election day-the only test Of
opinion for which the average politician
cares. And, finally, as long - women
are in . state Of complete dependence
upon the other sex, they are under the
strongest pressure to tolerate and con-
done everything in men. and to be com-
plaisant even to the faults that are real
~ most repugnant to them. As John
Stuart Mill says. women. under our
present system, are practically in the
highest state Of bribery and intimida-
tion combined.

The Real Hero Of Pleyna. ].

One Of the most picturesque touches
in the Times account of the Emperor
Williams entry into Constantinople is
the sketch of the venerable Osman
Pasha riding on white charger by the
Sultan's carriage. OF course, it is we'll
known in military circles that Osman is
not the real hero Of Plevna, and, in
fact, the story of it's defense, SO far as
it attributes the merit to the aged Turk,
is q mere myth. The real constructor
of the Plevna Notifications and the au-
thor Of the plan of defense was young
German officer serving under Osman,
who has since advanced to high rank in
the service by dexterous use of the op-
portunities which Plevna gave him.
The probability is that if he had su.
preme control Of the operations no sur
render would have taken place at all.
Osman was simply the fgure-head,
enormously popular with his men on
account of his bulldog courage; but he
was neither strategist, nor tsoticisa.

IN THE FOG.


Wells Of pallid mist and gray
Wrap the world OF yesterday:
Fir-fringcd Islands. rocky cape,
yellow sands, and mountain shape,
Sun and sky, and waters blue.
All are blotted from the view.
Out TO sea We blindly stare:
Did wo dream that such things weref
No; untouched. and safe and sure,
All these lovely things endure;
Underneath that hoverlng mist,
All the blue and amethyst.
All the rocky cliffs and sea,
All the surf-lines nesting free,
Mountain forms and islands green
All are there, although unseen.
II We bravely bide and wait
Through this brief eclipse OF Fate,
Smile through tho unsmiling noon,
Keeping heart and hope In tune
Shadow shall give place TO sun,
And, out stealing, one by one,
All the fair things mourned In vain
Shall be made our own again.
Dear heart, faint heart, who in shade
Sittest. pale. perplcxcd, afraid,
At the brief eyanishment
OF thy yesterdays content
Courage take; for hope endures,
Though little mist obscures;
And behind the fog wreaths dun
Brightens the eternal sun.
