Nearly Always Right In Her judgment In
Regard to Common Things.
An old gentleman over seventy, came into
the city from his farm, without his overcoat
The day turned chilly and he was obliged to
forego his visit to the fair.
To q friend who demonstrated with him
for going away from home thus unprepared,
he said: II thought it was going to be warm /;
my wife told me 10 take my overcoat, but
wouldn't Women have more sense thaG
men anyway"
A frank admission.
Women's good sense is said to como from
intuition; may it not be that they are more
close observers Of little things. One thing
is certain, they are apt to strike the nail on
the head, in all the ordinary problems Of
life, more frequently than the lords Of crea-
ton.
According to DR. Alice Bennett who re-
Gently read a paper on Brights disease be-
fore the Pennsylvania State Medical Society,
persons subject to bilious attacks and sick
headaches, who have crawling sensations,
like the flowing Of water in the head, who
are tired all the time and have unexplained
attacks of sudden weakness, may well be
suspected of dangerous tendencies in the
direction of Bright's disease"
The veteran newspaper correspondent,
10 Howard, of the New York Press, in noting
this statement, suggests: Possibly Alice is
correct in her diagnosis, but why. doesn't
she give some idea OF treatmentl know q

1t can be done. There Is one sure way Of
strengthening the digestive organs and re-

caused thereby. But this cannot be done by
the taking of pills and other cathartic mix

give temporary relief at first, in the end
aggravates the disease and increases the

has been given authority" to levy fines
upon whosoeyer he chooses, up to the
modest limit of $4,000. 900. These fines
are to be used to carry on the war against
the rebel Congressional party. Moth
ing is said about the method Balmaceda
may employ to collect the fines. But we
can easily understand how the dictator
may operate. He fines A B 5000, for
instance. A b refuses to pay and Is
thereupon clapped into Jail. Supper time
arriving his keeper brings him in meal
Of several dishes, but upon each an enor-
nous price is set, and the prisoner is not
allowed morsel except upon the terms

eat, but night in a cell does not help
his appetite or improve his temper.
Breakfast is set before him with dollars
and tens of dollars charge upon each
Wand, and until these are paid A B can
not eat. OF course, in two or three days
he willingly gives an order for hundreds
of dollars for simple cup of coffee, and
presently pays the entire fine in prefer
ence to starvation.
