THE WAY TO WIN.
What Working Women Could Accomplish
With the Ballot.

What Working Women Could Accomplish
With the Ballot.
The Boston Globe says, discussing
woman suffrage:
I'm trenchant letter on this subject,
Joe Howard recently pointed out that
our working women are at disadvan-
tage in the struggle for livelihood, be-
cause they have no political weight or
power. Surely this will not be denied.
Let the men engaged in any industry
unite to ask for any reasonable legisla-
tion to improve their condition, and both
parties are at once respectfully atten-
tive. But where is the practical poll
tician who cares whether thousand or
two of working women are satisfied or
dissatisfied with the conditions of their
employment? The philanthropist, the
humanitarian, the practical Christian
cares, but the practical politician simply
says to himself that only votes count,
and that when it comes to votes women
are not in it, And from this point Of
view the practical politician is right.
''How long will it take the multitude
of working women, competing for a
share of the worlds work and wages un-
der these unequal conditions, to realize
that the ballot is the only key that will
ever unlock the door for their advance
ment? That, with votes in their hands
to give or to withhold, they and their
interests will at once become objects OF
political concern and legislative atten-
ton?
''The cause of woman suffrage will be
quickly won when the hosts of labor
take it up in dead earnest as their own.
Not only would the ballot help the
working women to larger consideration
and higher compensation for their labor;
it would improve the condition of work
ing men also. Equal pay for equal la
bor equal hours, equal conditions all
round for both sexes would be the sure
fruit of their equality before the law
and at the polls"

A Husbands Injustice.

knew couple, married in early life,
says writer in the Boston Traveller,
the wife fine musician, full of courage
and ardor. She helped her young hus-
hand on in life, not only by saving, but
by earning with him. She taught music
and sang in church, receiving a hand
some stipend. All went into the COM
mon purse. After several years of pros
perity the man became wealthy.
They have been married over thirty
years, and in all that time, this accom-
plished woman has never received one
cent except as gift from her lord and
master. She has borne him children,
and the cares of family have prevent
ed her from obtaining independence
from her musical profession. She is,
threfore, dependent on his bounty. She
is proud and sensitive, and will not ask
for money, except in the greatest ex-
tremlty. He spends thousands on any
little fancy that may arise; she hasn't
twenty-five cents to give to call Of
charity. In vain has she implored him
to give her an allowance if only two
hundred year; but he will never con-
sent to do it, and she will go to her
grave penniless, with a reputation
among her personal friends of being
niggardly and mean, because she gives
so scantily of her income.

ENORMOUS SHIPMENTS.

Frequent shipments of carload lots
of DR.. Pierce's Medicines, to all the
principal commercial centers of this
country, are necessary to supply the
unprecedented demand for these world
famed remedies. No other medicines
ever attained anything like the popu-
larity which they enjoy. No other
medicines possess such superior and
positive curative properties as to war
rant their manufacturers in selling
them, as the proprietors of DR.. Pierce's
Medicines are doing, through druggists,
under q positive guarantee of benefit
or cure IN euery case, on fair trial, or
money refunded.
There are scores Of sarsaparillas and
other blood medicines advertised, but
the "Golden Medical Discovery" of DR..
Pierce is the only one ever backed up by
positive guarantee from well-known
and thoroughly responsible house. The
conditions are, that, given fair trial, it
will do all that is claimed for it, or
money paid for it will be promptly re-
funded. A Certificate Of Guarantee
wraps every bottle.
To attempt the sale Of an inferior, or
even a fairly good, blood-purifier under
such trying conditions as these, would
mean bankruptcy to its proprietors.

VOTING A DUTY.

The Privilege of the Ballot Not Only
Question of Right.
1t is sometimes asked if women have
right to vote. The question should rather
be, have they right not to vote? Take
the matter of schools. Let us suppose,
writes Mrs. A. NJ. Diaz, in the House
keeper, there are half dozen families
living together in retired location.
They desire a school for their children.
A site is to be chosen, building put
up, teacher selected, and the course of
studies made out Other matters are to
be considered d-ventilation size and de-
sign Of the building, seats, desks,
length of sessions, and whether two or
one.s Would the six mothers naturally
say: "This is matter to be left entire
ly to the fathers of our children. 1t is
not our place to interfere; we are not
sufficiently we'll informed; neither could
it make any difference. as we should
think exactly as our husbands think; or
if we differed, we should quarrel. Home
is our only sphere. Or would the six
fathers say, in regapi to the school, that
the whole matter should be settled with
out any suggestions from the mothers?
Every one knows there would be mutual
consultation and expression of opinion.
This would not be asked as right or
granted as right. 1t would be conSid-
cred a matter of course. And not only
so, but mother who should hold back
and say she had neither time nor inclin-
alton to attend to such things would be
thought strangely Indifferent to her
children's welfare and neglectful of her
duty. 4- tl
Now what is true of six mothers is
true of sixty, of six hundred, of six
thousand, of sixty thousand, of six hun
dred thousand. Numbers can not lessen
the individual motherly responsibility.
The very fact that home is woman's
sphere makes it her duty to see that the
children Of that home are trained under
the best possible influences. When the
ghborhood becomes a city, and the
school management can not receive in
dividual attention, this management is
left to representatives and one queer
thing about the matter is that these rep
resentatives arc in almost all cases men.
|
united fathers and mothers of the neigh
borhood did; yet they are chiefly men,
in most cases wholly so, and are chosen
by men in nearly ever instance. In the
neigh borhood, the school affairs con-
cerned every individual. In the city,
they are called public, but they are
private inst the same, and concern every
individual Public affairs are only pri-
vate affairs bundled together because
they can not be handled separately.
At present, mothers rear their chill
dren with care, watch anxiously over
them until they reach the school age
five or six years-then turn them en-
tirely over to tt c management OF men
selected and chosen by men, and often
the whole matter is settled by personal,
or worse, by political considerations. 1t
is not right that women should shirk
their duty in this way. The duty should
be thrust upon them" They should
take time and seek opportunities for
forming an opinion, and should express
it by ballot. Voting is only another
name for expressing opinion.

IN WOMAN'S BEHALF.
ONLY A WOMAN.

Only woman, no power hath she
To grasp the laws's deep mystery.
Only woman, she can not feel
The public pulse OF woe or veal
Only woman. devoid OF mind,
Weak, feeble, senseless, halting. blind,
Mothers and teachers, pride of our schools,
Rank them aliens, criminals, fools;
Send them back to the harem's vail
The lands too free when votes prevail.
Only woman, she holds no land
She pays no tax, she takes no stand
For schools and bonds; she can not wake
TO mighty matters now at stake.
Hers i. is to sweetly trust
That only m IN is wise and just;
Her own God-given right to think
Is but snare on ruins brink;
Casting ballots is dangerous sport;
The ship OF State might fail of port
II wires and mothers had say
On schools and bonds election day.
Those working women! who should heed
The tiresoms call OF squalid needf
Let them work or let them wed,
Let them look to men for bread.
Wages? A pretty pass when women try
To join the laborcr hue and cry.
Why, let them stay at home and wait
Till men can settle this debate.
Schools? Our schools are well enough:
Those women-boards are bosh and stun.
What right have they to Lave say
About a teacher and his pay?
Saloons? Why, they bring trade to town.
And women folks would vote it down.
They're awful narrow in their views
And bound the ballot to abuse.
Only woman, tired and faint,
Be she beggar or be she saint,
Let her go home and scrub and sew,
And ask her Lord what she would know.
Make way for men, good, bad, black, white
But keep the women out OF sight!

Would it not rather be one of the great

One word of nearer application to the
character of the inventions patented by
women. BY the majority of men these
would indeed be regarded as trivial
compared with those of the other sex.
and many of them certainly must be al
lowed to be so, though there are those
among them of which women only can
rightly judge, they alone understanding
the value of the uses to which these are
applied. But supposing them to merit
the Judgment bestowed on them. when
the nature of the education to which
woman has been confined in the past is
fully realized, what opportunity has
been hers, aside from exceptional in
stances, for developing any such facul-
ty, except in the direction of just these
trivial things?
The time for any just Judgment of
woman's instincts and capabilities in
the world of material art is not vet.
When she is permitted to stand IN So
ciety on equal terms with man, not as
his rival, but as the complement of his
real being, when she is accorded the
freedom to develop her latent powers in
all the ways that concern her best and
truest life, then may she rightly be
judged, and not till then, by the same
rules as man, and her work be fitly COM

NEW NOTES FOR WOMEN.

THE Harvard Annex thrives. Mrs.
Louis Agassiz in her report says that
they began ten years ago with twenty
five students. Now they have $50.
ONE of the most successful homeo-
pathic women physicians of the West is
Miss Maria Dean, of Helena, Mont
whose income last year was between
$1,000 and S12, 1000. She received her
medical education in Boston and Ber-
lin.
ACCORDING to the statistics of the last
educational year, there were $4,000 wom-
en- and 41,O00 men in our regular coli
leges; the charge can not be made that
women are Indifferent to opportumt ties
for higher education, and the prospect Is
that in few years collegiate women
will outnumber college-bred men.
THE wo men students have finally con-
ouered Basle, which. alone among Swiss
universities, has hitherto refused to al

by way of experiment; and it is stipu.
lated that if the experiment does not
work we'll, the doors of the university
shall again be closed to women.

THE TIME NOT YET.
The Invention Faculty in Woman Not
Fully Developed.

The Invention Faculty in Woman Not
Fully Developed.
An editorial in the Providence Jour-
nal recently, on an alleged inferiority
of the inventive faculty in women,
seemed to one reader very inconclusive,
because, it failed to take account of the
little more reflection, says writer IL
Noman's Journal would convince the
writer of the injustice, of pronounclng
thus definitely upon the inventive
power of one-half the race when, from
the creation down to period OF con-
siderable less than a generation, there
was little to call forth this faculty in
woman or to stimulate to its exercise.
In the case of man it has been far other
wise. From the creator he was forced
under God to become a creator. The
necessities of existence demanded this.
He had no choice but to use all the
power he had, outward and inward
alike, for the support Of his life. From
the first moment of his conscious life on
earth, his work was to cope with nature
and draw to the utmost from her hidden
resources.
Very different on the other hand was
the case of woman. Instead OF the ne
cessity of finding out any power in her
self, her part without question was as
sun,ed to be to the will of man, and in
all outward things to have no will Of her
own And so it has been with little
chaare through all the centuries down
70 .ha exceptional time in which we
