Woman's chronicle. (Little Rock, Ark.) 1888-1???, 1891-01-03

the Worlds Fair no doubt she fattered herself

peries but cuts her bodice in deep point front
and back The American woman surveys the two

Its sure return with double i'll repeated
No skill can foil.
AS on the earth the mists it yields to heaven
Descends in rain,
SO on his head whoe'er has evil given,
1t falls again.
Is 1t the law of life tina retrbuton
Shall follow wrongs;
1t never fails, although the execution
May tarry long.
Then let us be, with unrelaxed endeavor,
Just, true and right
That the great law Of recompense may ever
Our hearts delight.

CONGRESS has abe ceased its labors. or rather
its wrangling, until after New Year. when the Sem
ate will renew its lacks and defense on that
dummy, commonly lied "The Force Bill" To
outsiders this appea to be the fimsiest pretense,
and neither the ats ing or the defensive cham
pions have any idea Of passing it. The whole
matter is only an effort to tackle "Od Time and
consume the few weeks remaining of the term.
Business men are falling every day by the wayside
for want of legislation authorizing those who con-
troll the finances of the country to give the much
needed relief. Farmers and Others who have
mortgages on their homesteads, are CRYING aloud
for some measure to restore confidence and make
ltpossba for them to keep roof over the heads
of their dear ones.
The women are waiting with bated breath for
some action pointing to their emancipation, which
really would be the solution of the whole question.
But each and all will have to wait, while the Dem
ocrats attack the dummy and the Republicans de.
fend it. These statesmen should understand that
they are attempting an mpossbity; they cannot
please both classes theee who profit BY hard times
and those who are ruined by them. They will
have to make their choice and abide the issue.
The scrptural rebuke to those who try to serve
"God and Mammon' applies equally to them.
AS THERE is NO question without its two sides, so
there is no rule without its exceptions. The St.
Louis Magazine man deteSts slang, yet he says:
81 know one young married lady who talks
slang charmingly. One though despisng slangi-
ness Of speech cannot help but admire this one
specimen. She weaves it into conversation in the
most unexpected and fascinating way, and becomes
an amusing and entertaining guest"
There are happy exceptions and there are I'M
happy exceptions. The lady above mentioned
seems to be happy exception to good rule,
which says: "Use no slang if you wish to enjoy
the reputation of being ady-like.'
Now, poor Mr.. Parnell has not been SO fortu-
nate. He appears TO have been made an unhappy
exception to bad rule, which says 'f you are
man you may do as you choose, provided of
course that your offenses are always committed
against a woman"
Poor Mr.. Parnell! With all his patriotism and
brave devotion to his country one cannot but feel
regret that he should happen to be made the ex-
cepton of an old established rule that has covered
iniquty for centuries and was hitherto so very safe
for the reason that women, when they have been
snned against, rarely cry aloud Or fight; they
only crawl off and hide
From the present outlook Mr.. Parnell doesn't
appear to be destined to lead the Irish nation to
the goal of their ambition-Home Rule; but his
unhappy example may serve to lead the whole civ
ilized world to demand Of public men better,
purer code of individual virtue Then, indeed,
would the sacrifice of Ireland's great leader be
not in vain.

HE members of the Farmers Alliance who met
lately in Florida, if they did nothing else, have
impressed the country with their innocence of the
crooked ways of the average statesman and politi-
clan they have evidently not served an appren-
tceship under those august individuals. The COM
mlttee who were chosen to investigate Mr. McCune
and other officers, reported "they could prove
nothing against them, but they wished they had
not done certain things of which they were accused.
How different this is from the thick coat of white
wash, which is usually applied by committees of
experienced politicians.
