sELF-sUPpoRT1NG WOMEN.

Inc Wisdom of the Law Relating to
Women as Teachers.
Editor Wondn'S Column, Morning Call:
A recent decision of the Supreme Court Of
Michigan practically amounts to saying that
every man has the right to command his
wife to pay him half of what she earns, I'M
less he relinQuishes his claim to it. Now is
that not almost enough to deter any self
supporting woman from marrying for fear
her husband may claim half her earnings?
The decision of former Board of Educa-
tlon OF San Francisco that no woman may
marry and remain in the department does
not entail the hardship that some would
suggest. Rather has it been the means of
protecting host of young women from re-
ceiving the self-interested attentions of
young men too lazy to support themselves,
but not averse to letting wife support
Them. When man marries for money,
when he pays court to an heireSs for the sake
OF her fortune. lie is almost beneath con-
tempt; but when man, and young man
Mt that, marrieS for the sake OF being sup
ported by his wife's labor, be it of hand or
OF brain, he is simply parasite, o human
pest.
And yet, in the face of this wise provision
OF the School Board, more than one person
anxious to redress the wrongs of the sex
have risen up to break a lance against the
prohibition, declaring that it Is an unjust
discrimination against the rights Of married
women and that they should be privileged
to teach If necessary.
No one wishes to claim that woman by
marriage has forfeited the ability to teach
or her inherent right to earn her living in
any honorable way she may elect, but that
no man through his unwillingness or inabil-
ity to earn support is to stand even indi-
rectly in the way of some single or widowed
woman ami so debar her from filling a posi-
tiOn which. other things being equal, be-
longs more justly to the woman without a
husband, for the presumption is that when
man marlieS woman he undertakes to
provide for her support. That he after
ward should fail TO do so may not be his
fault, but in order that worthless men should
have no inducement to marry self-suppOrt-
ing women and impose upon them the addi-
tional burden of husband to provide for
the law has been made. 1t may work hard
ships i'll individual cases, but is there any
law that does not? DI VERNON.

or all the ruffians who have had to appear
before Assize Courts in France for some
time, Meunier, an EXCLUSIONS officer of Lam

In the year 1890 he lost his wife. who left
him with two little boys. Desiring to
marry again, he proposed to rather
wealthy person, Mile. Jactel, whose mother
objected to the sutton, first because he was
not rich enough, and, secondly, because he
had children. Meunier now resolved TO OBJ

her mother, who still objected to the chill

Mile. Jactel Meunier smothered his eldest
boy. In the meantime the brother of the
LADY, who is an infantry officer, arrived in
the locality and forbade the man to talk any
more to the members of the Jactel family,
whereupon Meunier fired at him with gun
one evening and shattered his left arm.
This caused the arrest of the criminal at
last, and the Judge soon prepared formid-
able case against him. In Meunier' s!prem-

religious newspaper which had belonged to

A Mystery

How the human system ever recov- CTS from the bad effects of the nauseous medicines often literally poured into it for the suppositive relief of dyspep- sia, liver complaint, constipation, rheumatism and other ailments is a mystery. The mischief done by bad medicines is scarcely less than that caused by disease. If they who are weak, bilious, dyspeptic, constipated or rheumatic, would oftener be guided by the experience of invalids who have thoroughly tested Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, they would in every instance obtain the speediest aid derivable from rational medication. This medicine is searching and at the same time a thoroughly safe remedy, derived from vegetable sources, and possessing, in consequence of its basis of pure spirits. properties as medicinal stimulant not to be found in the fiery locol bit ters and stimulants often resorted to by the debilitated, dyspeptic and anguid.

IN the course of Senator Stewards speech at Denver yesterday he said :
 "Why should there be hard times with quarter of century of peace? Why should times be worse than any other time in the century? Want of money was the cause. England had demonetized gold in India and main- tajned 1t in England. Secretary Sherman after visit to England and a conference with the gold bugs, re- turned home and surreptitiously in- corporated in bill the clause reject ing silver. If this had been done to gold it would not be worth 25 cents on the dollar. If it could not be used for money it would have no commer- cial value. But silver was universally circulated. It could not be destroyed but 1t could be depreciated,"

Timber Cutting Permits.

Commissioner Carter of the general land office, with the approval of the secretary of the interior, has issued a form of permit for cutting timber uns der the act of March 3, 1891. The permit stipulates that all rights and privileges shall expire on the day of the expiration of the permit; provides that no trees shall be cut or removed that are less than a certain number of inches in diameter; that only cer- tain percentage of the timber of each class growing on an acre shall be cut. No timber is to be cut or removed from any tract covered by settlement or occupation of any bona fide settler. Every part of the tree cut must be utilized and the person to whom the permit is issued must cut, remove, burn, or otherwise safe y dispose of the tops and brush of trees. The commissioner reserves the right to modify or revoke the permit. It is not transferable and any attempt to transfer it will render it void.

The Western Settlers Chosen
 Sprcific.

With every advance of emigration into the far west, new demand is created for Hostetter's Stomach Bit ters. Newly peopled regions are frequently less salubrious than older settled localities, on account of the miasma which rises from recently cleared land, particularly along the banks of rivers that are subject to freshets. The agricultural or mining emigrant soon learns, when he does not already know, that the Bitters afford the only sure protection against malaria, and those disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels, to which climatic changes, exposure, and unac- customed or unhealthy water or diet subject him. Consequently he places an estimate upon this great household specific and preventive commensurate with it's intrinsic merits, and is care ful to keep on hand restorative and promoter of health so implicitly to be reliedupon in time of need.
