Why is she sad? Has some loved
friend departed? Has some living friend
proved false? Has she asked the ques-
ton, us life worth living? and sadly
answered "Nov' She longs for death!
Why? Because she is suffering. Be-
cause she isbow ed down with weight
of woe. Because all pleasure is driven
from her life by the demon of pain.
She is not alone in this respect, for
alasl most women also suffer. They
may suffer in silence, but it is none the
less severe and none the less needless.
Women were created for pleasure, not
pain; for happiness, not for misery.
They suffer, but they need not. A little
care, a little assistance, use of the right
thing will prevent all such troubles OF
cure them in time. This assistance
which women so much need, will be
found in the use of that grand medicine
Hunts Remedy.
Many women have already discovered
this secret and have renewed their healtl

GRADED sCHooL GRADUATES.

Members of the last Legislature will
probably begin to ask soon "Oh, Lord,
how long?" Any abusive system in the
State is so readily credited to the late
Legislature, and a good part of it justly
so, Especially in regard to our school
laws have we right to complain. The
provision for permits to be issued by the
county examiner to teachers has already
admitted some who had failed in exami-
nations under both the supervisor and
county examiner systems, yet had con-
trived to "work" things in some way to
obtain permit. We are led to this re-
mark by a circular received from Supt.
Palmer in relation to methods of train
ing for common school teachers. Itcon-
tains table from two former county SUI
pervisors and reflects upon teachers
trained i'll graded schools. They are
ranged in order from college graduates
down to district school graduates. Al
though higher training is doubtless of
great value yet we do not like the appar.
ent aspersion cast upon graduates OF
graded schools. Either the academy
system or the graded school system is
right. We claim the latter as the proper
method. But some change will have to
be devised at the next opportunity
whereby this ose-jointed system of
supervision can be amended so that this
most important department of our edu.
catiOnal system shall be placed upon a
sound and worthy basis.

the Undivided attention of the listeners

and light wrappers.
The scare caused sometime ago by
the successful counterfeiting of the two
dollar greenback led to the appointment
of a commission by the Treasury for Sc
curing paper money which shall be safer.
The weak point in the present paper is
said to be in the silk thread, which can
be initiated. MeSsrs. Crane 4 Co. of
Dalton, Mass, submitted eight different
designs of paper containing silk fiber,
and one of these has been recon-
mended by the Treasury Commission.
The Secretary of the Treasury has ap.
proved the recommendation. The new
paper has the approval of bank note
makers and will be used for the printing
of all United States notes, certificates,
bonds and circulating notes for National
+ banks.
The love of money has received a bad
! character from the inspired writer, and
no doubt deserves it. 1t is daily grow.
ing more evident that it was this same
disreputable old love that was at the bot
tom of the recent Italian fuss. Indem
nifty was the word. But if indemnity
will not flow Italy is quite willing t
keep still and pocket the money spen
there every year by the omnipresen
American traveller. This is all mad,
clear by late correspondence from Naples
and it should give the American eagl,
pause and make him ask himself if i
were not better for him to spend tn

A SIGHT WITH A MORAL

Nowhere on earth is there a better il
lustratiOn of forgiving ones enemies
than that of the many reunions between
former Confederate and Federal soldiers
1t showed itself in the unwilling of mon
uments on the battlefield of Gettysburg
1t has showed itself every Memorial day,
1t showed itself at Jefferson Davis
death, when the new county of Davis
was formed with its Cleveland county,
seat. 1t shows itself again in the un-
yelling of monument to the COnfeder-
ate dead in jackson, Miss, on Wednes
day. The stars and stripes We're carried
at the head of every division, side by
side with the tattered Confederate flag.
1t was noble sight. But may these
southern fire-eaters call it to mind when
they begin to work up passion ovel
Northern expressions and remember
that the hand that subdued them has
been mild in its punishment.

privilege to all but the United States

after time, become afflicted themselves,
and then we have the grave forms Of

be looked for. Those nerves. which are
inlendrd to drive the machinery Of our
bodies, are no longer capable Of perform
ing those functions, hence we often have
kidney disease, heart trouble, headache,

in fact, we may have any Of the organs Of
