A DEED.

Mortnls have all one ending Deathl
II doth define the limit of their lives,
And knowing this the careless multitude,
With swelling ranks, drifts onward
Onward, with a ceaseless and continuous roar,
To that great Sea that washes every shore
Within the universe.
But fighting, struggling on the road of life,
Perchance some poor and wearied form,
Fired with the enthusiasm of a moment,
Doth execute a great, a noble deed,
And on the wings of reputation
He soon becomes immortalized.
The man may die, but yet the deed remains
Fresh as the day the doer tasted Heaven.
Attached his name, his form and semblance
gone,
We can reprint the deed, but not the man,
And then we die, but still the deed lives on
FIom out the past unto Eternity.
Mark, then, the deed, and mark We well the
man
Let those on earth perform deed who can.

I.aehrymose Lawyers.

1t is generally supposed that it is only
judges who have the power Of shedding
tears at an advanced age, but eminent
counsel occasionally display this gift. A
century ago it was common enough among
lawyers. At Horne Tooke's trial Attorney
General Scott, who was against him, fell
into the error of justifying his own char
acter: st is the little inheritance have to
leave to my children, and, with heavens
help, will leave it unimpaired." Here
he began to sob; and, not to be behind
hand, Solicitor General Milford began to
weep in concert. Look at Milford! What
on earth is he. crying for?" said by
stauder to Tooke. He is crying,n was
the, reply, Ito think of the little inner
itance Scott's children are likely to get."--

A solution of the Woman Question.

The sooner woman realizes the truth OF
her position as theory and boldly act
upon it, the better it will be for them.
They do indeed act upon it, and have al
ways been obliged to do so nature being
quite a sexual tyrant and giving no heed
90 trivial differences. Natural laws starve
women as indifferently as they do men,
and find it no more harm. The recognition
of womans place in nature as being pri-
marily that of female animal, whose first
business it is to get a living, and whose
second to get a good living, would do
much to sweep off the cobwebs of barren
sentiment and unproductive rhetoric which
pass current for reasoning on their social
status
When women at large are aroused to the
fact that this is their actual status in ma
ture-the mere hard, unquestionable fact
of existence-the alienation of their'lot in
general will become rapid. Industrial
emancipation is in truth the only eman-
cipation there is for either man or woman,
since the development of such industries
as make living easier and fuller produces
the only relief from degraded poverty or
continuous toll which the nature of things
permits us to find. We may call it a coarse
necessity, a wretched condition, hard
drudging tyranny, but with all our railing
we shall never rail it out of existence,
since it is of nature, which is deaf and
blind to praise and blame alike. No indi-
vidual, no class, no nation has ever risen
in the world except it first succeeded in
wrestling the assurance of good, regular
living from nature, and none ever will
Those who apply to society for it will not
get it, Society has no surplus large enough
to provide them with it, even if it would.
Nature alone has resources sufficient. And
the application to nature must be made

Electricity from Wind.

Owing to the comparative scarcity OF
water power in many parts of England for
the generation of power for electrical pur-
poses. attention has been given to wind
power, with which the country iswell sup
piled. A small experimental plant has
been in operation at a flour mill near Lon
don, the windmill supplying sufficient
power to run a small dynamo. The cur
rent is used to charge a storage battery
