The Wonder Of wnndor..

When Mr.. Loughtonwas Spanish con-
sui at Boston he was one day standing
near where some ballast-stone were be-
ing thrown overheard from a vessel that
had recently arrived from a European
seaport, Among this rubbish was q
flint pebble somewhat larger than a
hens egg, which, when it struck some
OF the larger stones, separated in the
middle. Mr.. Loughton stopped and
picked up the two halves On each
half, in marks made by the natural
growth of tho stone, were two perfect
human heads In profile, all of tho out
lines OF features and hair being perfect
ly distinct, the natural portrait being
much darker than the surrounding
stone. The most surprising part of the
whole incident is the fact that, even
though the two halves fit together OK
actly, one of the faces was clearly that
Of male, the other that of female.
Even the putting up of the hair was APP
propriate to the sex; yet, in the stone,
they were face to face.-St. Louis Re-
Dublic

REGULATING PRODUCTION.
A Subject of Interest to Cotton Planters
of the South.

of the South.
From the conditions that are now sur
rounding the cotton planters of our
country it appears evident that unless
something transpires to change or mod
ify these conditions, ruin and distress
will be the final result With the pro-
duction of cotton greatly in excess of
the demand, or far beyond the require
ments of the manufactures throughout
the world, is it not reasonable to expect
prices to fall below the cost of produc-
ton? This every intelligent farmer
will admit, but strange to say he
will still pursue the same ruinous
course of giving almost his en-
tire attention to the production
of cotton, What can he ex-
pect as a result should the present crop
equal that of the last year, can he an
ticipate a profit by the business, or
even meet current expensns? Common
sense and reason teaches that such a
theory is without foundation.
When the cotton planters were pros
porous and realizing remunerative
prices every other industry was toned
up and general prosperity resulted
throughout the whole country. Then is
it not the duty of every business man to
give his aid and influence in protecting
an industry having such consequent
bearing upon the commerce of our coun-
try? Where is the cotton-planter to
'ook to as means of escape from the
impending doom? To the sub-treasury
plan? TO free coinage of silver? To
tariff reform? No! and no other legis-
lation possible, so long as there is such
an over-p production of cotton as the
present statistics indicate.
This is the all-important question for
the cotton planter to consider. Reduce
the acreage to the extent that produc-
ton will not go beyond the require
! ments of commerce. Can this be done?
1t can. As member, appeal to the
alliance, and as a cotton producer, |
entreat and urge them to take this mat
ter into serious consideration. 1t will
not do to be indifferent any longer BY
cooperation and systematic plan, the
farmers themselves can regulate pro-
duction and develop policy that will
not only lead to the upbuilding of their
own interests, but promote general
prosperity throughout the nation.
Then why not the Farmers Alliance,
an organization that is now creating
such commotion among the political
elements of our country, come to the
rescue of the cotton planter by formu
lating plan and putting in operation a
system that will effectually prevent the
impending ruin of the cotton interests
of the south. No plan, however ade-
quate, can be effectual unless it en-
braces also provisions for its execution
and enforcement. 1t is hoped that there
is wisdom sufficient within the body of
organization to dictate a practicable
remedy, and bring about united action
on the part of cotton planters to regu-
late production in accordance with the
demands of the trade, 20, /. Collins, in

A CHANGE OF OPINION.

The Old and Violent Preludiccs Against
Woman Physicians Rapidly Disappear
Ing.
"There has been remarkable
change of public opinion said Chica-
go female physician recently, lin re-
gard to the practice of medicine. We
used TO be frowned upon by respecta-
bility, ridiculed by the papers, and
scorned by the regular faculty. We
were told that we had no right to in
trude in the profession, that we were
unfit for it, that we never could learn
its mysteries, that the law would be in
voked against u.s. and that nobody
would employ us The medical schools
| for women were small and poorly
equipped and it was hard to get the
right kind of professors for them. But
we were not discouraged by obstacles,
and worked our way until the classes
grew from half dozen students to n
dozen or more. Things are changed
now. The old and violent prejudices
against us have disappeared There
must be over fifty regular practitioners
of our sex in the city and some of them
have incomes of ten thousand year,
They are favored by many wealthy
families and the result of their practice
is the best test of their merit They
are as well educated as their masculine
rivals, many of whom are ready to hold
consultations with them. Look at the
Women's Medical college, just opened
in New York, with its chemical, physio-
logical and astrological laboratories
and its body of professors Its course
of study is three years, and it has near
ly hundred students, who have come
from all over the union. This looks
like progress, and believe that in fifty
years there will be as many doctors of
our sex as of the other Western Rural

Mrs. Henry Ward Boecber.s Home.

Mrs. Henry Ward Bcecher is living
quietly at her home in Brooklyn sur
rounded by her birds and flowers In
answer to numerous requests to take
departments on different periodicals
Mrs. Beecher returns to one and all the
reply that at her time Of life she does
not think it to be wise to enter into any
permanent contract for doing work.
She lives in a beautiful little house,
where she has every luxury provided
her in her old age. Mrs. Beecher has
a fad for keeping birds. Canaries, gold
finches, Java sparrows love birds and
cockatoos dwell in harmony in large
cage which she keeps in sunshiny
window. With the pretty song birds and
the beautiful Towering plants in garden
and window Mrs Beecher makes her
Brooklyn home such delightful spot
that people linger as they pass, finding
it a glad resting-place for tired city
eyes.-Chicago Post

MULE BREEDING.
An Important Matter to southern Farmers

An Important Matter to southern Farmers
successful breeder OF mules says:
III you select this branch of stock
farming as your business in life, you
must attach the greatest Importance to
right start, Therefore, when yon
go into the mule business let your first
investment of capital be in 'kncwl-
edge, and excuse the monotonyl Sec
ond in knowledge, and the third in
more knowledge, | should never pur-
chase a jack less than fifteen hands
high. Have no juggling with such
blanketed phrases as jack meas
ure, tape measure, hip meas
ure,' and lots of others that secures
the ducats of the deceivable,
but fifteen hands high at the withers
under the standard The Maltese jack
has the best speed, action and spirit of
all, and has the fashionable color, but
is too small, The Mammoth has the
size and color, but is too slow and ac-
tionless. We believe the best jacks to
be the Catalonian jacks of Spain and
the Potion jacks of France. They have
been bred for black color, good action
and sound feet The size of the foal is
generally most influenced 10y the male.
The shape of the foal is generally in
fluenced by the female. Therefore, if
we are purchasing mares and can Sc
lect the types we desire, let us keep in
mind the type of mule we desire
to raise. So let us look first for our
type. If we take almost any ten sue
cessful southern farmers into a mule
pen, nine of them at least will hunt
around until they find mule about
fifteen hands high, with heavy body,
straight back, straight belly, short fore
leg ESPECIALLY below the bnee-in 9th
err words, "a pony-built mule. Then
we may take this as the desirable type
of mule in the south, for we are raising
mules to sell and not for park orna-
ments. Then let us select this type of
mare, and let us get her from among
the grade draft breeds. Elk.

SENATOR PEDRO PEREA,

One OF the hardest worked members OF
the council was certainly Hon. Pedro
Perea, from Bernalillo county; he labored
in season and out of season, and that
successfully for the good of the people;
the measures he advocated he fought
through with great tenacity; the ones he
opposed, and, he opposed none but
vicious and bad ones, he fought still
harder and in every case successfully.
He stood pat and straight for economy in
every item extravaganza and needless
appropriations found no favor with him
but were ruthlessly cut down and out; he
watched the territorial treasury carefully,
diligently and constantly, and nothing
escaped his watchfulness. This has been
his third term in the legislative council;
he has gained greatly in his knowledge OF
parliamentary law and usages and is quick
to see point and to profit by it. The
county of Bernalillo, that elected him bya
larger majority than ever on November
last, has good cause to be very proud OF
him. The appropriation bill rs passed is
again mainly his handiwork (although
some of the items in it were increased
over his voice and vote) and will continue
to keep down expenses, save money
and pay off the debt OF New
Mexico as his appropriation bill did dur
ing the past two years. Senator Perea's
influence was great in the upper house
with the Republican as we'll as the Demo-
cratic members; the latter oftenei voting
with him than with their own party
friends; his courage, rugged honesty,
quick perception and knowledge OF al
fairs won for him great admiration from
all fair-minded people, but also the en-
nifty of his adversaries, whom he man
aged to defeat in nearly every instance.
He made a splendid record and, again,
his county and the people OF New Mex
leo may we'll and justly be proud OF such
man.
