The Search For Pretty Wives
Ladies' Home Journal


Girls to be successful to-day must
have something more than pretty
features. The men who are worth
marrying are looking for something
else than pretty faces, coy manners
or fetching gowns. They are re-
cognizing full well that women are
progressing at a pace which will
quicken, rather than slacken. They
realize that the woman Of to-mor.
row will be brighter in mind than
her predecessor of to-day. Hence,
they are looking for wives who will
be the equal Of their neighbors.
Beauty is being considered an ad-
junct to common sense. u want a
wife who knows something, who is
worth having for what she knows;
not one Of these social butterflies"
said one Of the greatest "catchers''
Of the New York season at the win
ter's close. And he expressed the
sentiments Of thousands Of the
Young men Of to-day. The scent
for pretty wives is over, and the
looking for bright young women
has begun. And the girl who to-
day trains her mind to knowl-
edge will be the woman of to-mor-
row.

FIRST A HE, THEN a SHE.
A Twenty-Two-Year-Old Man
Becomes q Woman In .Eigh-

At San Rafael, San Francisco,
Delbert Reynolds was born 9 boy
twenty-five years ago. A short time
ago he married q respectable black
smith at Alena, and blossomed forth
as Belle Hardman, a loving wife.
Her husband is willing to make af-
fidavit that she is a true woman,
and the mother, Mrs. Reynolds, Is
prepared to swear that it was born 2
boy, and remained so for twenty
years, doing boys and mans work
and association with males as a rule.
The transformation covered q
period Of eighteen months, and q
San Francisco doctor, while amazed,
vouches for the marvellous change
Of sex as an absolute fact.
The only solution Of the problem
will be for he, she or it to become

ELECTION ECHOES.
New York werld.

The election in Vermont last
Wednesday resulted in decided de-
crease in the Republican majority
and a Democratic gain OF several
Representatives In the Legislature.
Evidently the Force bill, extrava-
CANT appropriations and increased
taxes do not appeal very eloquently
to the Green Mountain voters.
Brooklyn Standard Uuion: The
election in Arkansas is an object
lesson that should not be lost. 1t
shows the methods by which the
South is consolidated for the bene-
fit Of the Democratic party. Two
years ago there was a farmers move
ment that troubled the Bourbon
Democrats OF Georgia good deal,
but that does not seem to stand the
test Of time. The Arkansas far
mers have had some trouble in find-
ing out just what they would like to
do.
New York Tribune, Rep. An
election in Vermont is invariably O
question Of a larger or smaller Re-
publican majority. The canvass
there has not been vigorously con-
Quoted this year, and Wednesdays
yoIa ,rba,, ~. ,sak,,y.no ara o,x,s,,lol

light. In Arkansas, where fraud
has been barefaced and mob out

ocracy is figuring every hour upon a
larger majority. In an election in
that State the chances Of Mr.. Beck
inridgs's party are as safe as those

"Put IL There"

+ WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-Mr. Call
offered a resolution (which was re-
ferred to the Committee on Foreign
Relations) declaring that the MUIR
der Of Gen. Barrundia, on the stea-
mer Acupoeho, by the authorities Of
Guatemala, while under the protec-
ton Of the iagof the Uniten States,
was an insult to the people os the
United States. and demand redress
for that injury, and for the security
against the recurrence Of such cases.
The Tariff bill was taken up-the
sugar schedule being under consi-
deration.
Mr. Edmunds addressed the Sem
ate. He referred to the assertion in
Mr.. Vance's speech last evening that
the farmer bore all the burden Of the
customs duties, while he had nc
benefit from them; that the Senator
had named q variety of articles that
were on the free list, but he had moi
named the article Of mica, found in
North Carolina, on which there Is a
duty.
Mr.. Vance: There Is no duty OH
mica in this bill.
MIR. Edmunds: Then there ought
to be.
Mr.. Vance: Put it there.
Mr.. Edmunds: He did not speak
Of the duty on tobacco, nor II the
duty on rice, which the farmers Of
North Carolina raise. He forgot
the lumber interest of North Caro-.
lima. He shut his eyes to the i'm
portance Of pitch and tar and tur-
pentine that have given such q
wholesome and odorous name to the
people Of that State.
MIR. Vance: They areput on the
free list also; the duty on rice is re-
dueed.
Mr.. Edmunds: Well, let us unite
to put them where they belong
The fact is that q farmer Of North
Carolina is, in respect to every ma
terial interest, precisely in the con.
dition Of a farmer Of Vermont; and
If the tariff is bad for the farmer of
North Carolina it is bad for the far
mer Of Vermont.

rocity, Mr.. Edmunes recalled the

Great Democratic Gains I'm
Vermont.

RUTLAND, W., Sept. 3.-Theelec-
ton passed Of quietly and smoothly,
except for the town representatives,
for whom the ballot is now pro-
crossing. P. w. Clement, presi-
dent Of the Rutland railroad, the
Republican candidate, being the
leader Of the high license moyement
in Vermont, is bitterly opposed BY q
small majority Of the Republicans
who are strong Prohlbitionists and
determined to elect the Democratic
candidate (also high license) by
voting for the third candidate.
The county returns are very
meagre, but probably one Demo-
cratic senatoris elected, and there
are very significant gains By the
Democrats Of representatives in the
Legislature. ri
The general returns Of the State
show large Democratic gains in the
House, owing 10 the opposition Of
prohibition, and many high-licenze
Republicans are elected.
In White River Junction towns
the Republican vote has fail oil, o.
500; the Democrats have gained l4i,
while the Prohibition vote has fallen
of but little. If the vote on the
remaining towns are relatively the
same as those that are heard from,
the Republican majority will be
only about $1,000 in the whole
State. There were only. eighteen
Democrats in the assembly in 1883.
Thirty-seysn have been elected In
1876 towns already heard from, and
two farmers league candidates. An
unexpectedly large number Of high
license Republicans have been
elected.
