Tie divorce bill with which Chief
Justice CoInegy5 is credited with draw
ing, and which has been introduced in
the lower house of the Legislature by
Representative John C. Higgins, Inns
some good points in ii, and some not
so good. Sending all divorce cases to
the courts is n good idea, but how long
would such law, doing SO, stand upon
the statute books? The Legislature,
which is the maker of the law, is above
/ the law. and would still be importuned
| to interpOse its authority in many
cases. Nothing but constitutional
provision will divorce the Legislature
from divorce cases. There is nothing
to prevent person refused in court
from applying to the Legislature, and
there is nothing to prevent the Legis-
lature from doing what the courts
would not do.
| The bill is no doubt intended to help
| parties before the courts with as little
expense as possible, but this is not
sufficiently guarded. Tho bill pro-
yides that the state shall pay the
court charges but these are small in
comparison with the attorneys fees in
such cases and nobody would feel
safe In going before the courts with
out an attorney, and generally the
best that can be had, it follows that Il
regulation Of the attorneys fees would

paying enormous amounts of money
for something that brings nothing

not provide for means for drawing
orders on the State treasury to pay
the expenses of a suit before the
: courts. we presume is only an mad
, vertent omission that will be suppliet
before the bill becomes law.

A Patent Horseshoe.

A patent covers horseshoe which pos
sesses many advantages. On its under
surface is stamped pattern which gives
a number of points for the securing Of a
better grip on the pavement, and this,
where wooden pavements are used, is an
important consideration. The shoe Is
about half the weight of an ordinary
shoe, being two and a half pounds the set
Of four; 1t takes less time and less money
to fix, has only four nails, as against the
usual seven. Being three-quarter shoe,
it leaves the frogs and heels on the ground
which prevents conclusion to the foot
and leg, contraction and corns.
The only preparation the hoof requires
after the old shoe Is taken off is that the
rasp must be used on the toe and quar-
tiers, making reduction of about one
eighth Of an inch on the lower side of the
hoof. The frog and heels and back part
of the foot should not be touched. This
shoe is made in accordance with the well
established principle that the more the
hinder part of the foot-which is very
tough-is used, the harder and healthier
it becomes.-New York Telegram.

Widowed Domestics.

The mania for getting married which
besets so many domestic servants often
results in their finding themselves either
widowed or deserted in the course of a
few years, with number of young chill
dren to provide for. They are generally
both able and willing to return to domes-
tic service, but that way of earning liv-
ing is barred to them by the necessity of
looking after their membranes at
home. Knowing Of many such cases, a
benevolent gentleman down in Lanca-
shire proposes the establishment of homes
which would take care of the children,
the mothers contributing toward their
support in proportion to their own earn
ings.
The author of this scheme of relief be-
lieves that it would be gratefully. ac-
cepted by the mothers as a most well
come change from the unceasing cares
which now make up their daily lives.
At the same time it would benefit so
city by increasing the supply Of women
servants. want which becomes more
pressing every year. As further help
toward that object it is proposed that all
the girls admitted into the homes should
be specially trained for domestic service
in its several departments. This would
enable them to go out into the world at
comparatively early age, and to help
their mothers instead of taxing their
seanty resources.
The main difficulty of realizing the
scheme, which certainly has taking
look, is in raising the funds. In the ma.
ture of things the homes would not be
wholly self supporting, even If the ex.
penses were cut down in all possible
ways It would be necessary, therefore,
to supplement the income derived from
the mothers contributions by subscrip-
tons collected from the charitable pub
lie, and one hesitates to advocate another
appeal to that necessarily solicited quar-
ter.-London Globe.

When he Served the Queen.


I served the queen for several years,
and / look back on the experience with
neither horror nor shame. During the
twenty five years that have passed since
then the ameioration in the condition OF
the soldier has been incalculable. But !
should be untrue to their memory if !
did not lift up my testimony that the
men Of the old days endured their more
arduous lot with grand primitive resig-
nation.
They knew that the quartermaster and
the butcher were In collision in regard
to the meat ration, that the troop SER
geant major cooked their accounts, and
that the pay corporal had. glutinous fin
gers Their captain habitually addressed
them as brutes; the surgeon left his du-
ties for days to so hunting. There was
no quick escape for them from those
abuses, for some Of them were offers, I"
and all were long service men.
But there were no professional agita-
tors in those days, nor any barrack room

was not great deal of that commodity
Of a little Of which the poet speaks as
"a dangerous thing" and there were no
halfpenny newspapers. The discipline
was rigid, how rigid no younger of to-
day can have any idea; but insubordina-
ton was undreamed of. - Archibald

Headache.

We are often asked for cure for head
ache. "A certain wise physician classes
headaches among the ailments which
have baf1ed his profession. At medi-
cal meeting member said: ibid any of
you ever cure headache? never did"
Several doctors having mentioned their
treatment, he replied: ooh, you only re-
lieved it. can do that But have you
ever cured it?'
No one could answer yes. The shops
contain nostrums enough, but did any
one ever find himself more than tenn
porarily relieved by them?
Nature, unaided, sometimes effects a
permanent cure by the changes which
the system undergoes In the process of
time Persons who have been subject to
headache are often more or less fully re-
lieved after about the age Of fifty. This
is perhaps a result of the shrinkage Of
the brain and the hardening Of the
tissues. which begins at about that period.
Changes in ones condition or habits, or
in climate, may sometimes effect cure

Policeman and Model.

There is big, picturesque policeman
on the, Broadway squad who is noted

for the benefit Of the common people in

BILE canvas to gladden. the artistic eye Of
generations yet to come. He has the
trunk and arms of giant. In the opin-
ion of distinguished artist, this police
man is the best specimen of massive
physical perfection he ever saw. OF
course, the lady artists have all had a
hack at him with pencil and brush, for
which he invariably gets cne dollar sit
ting. No wonder he carries the air of a
man thoroughly satisfied with himself.
