women only in hospitals where insane

The southern states were behind
those of the north and west in making
the move toward medical education
for women, as the records of the

In WOMAN'S BEHALF.
woMAN's PLACE ~ NATURE.
Her First Duty Is to Get a Living and Then
Use II Well.

Use It Well
The sooner women realize the truth
of their position as a theory and bodily
act upon il, the better L will be for
them They do indeed act upon it, and
have always been obliged to do so, ma
ture being quite sexual tyrant and
giving no heed to trivial differences
Natnra. laws starve women as indiifer-
emily as they do men, ana find it no
more harm The recognition Of WON.
ans place in nature as being primarily
that of a female animal, whose first
business il is to get a living. and whose
second to get a good living, would do
much TO sweep off the cobwebs of bar
rem 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 nature mere hard unquestiona.
bic fact of existence, the alienation of
their lot in general will become rapid.
Industrial emancipation is in truth the
only emancipation 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 neces-
sity-a wretched condition, a hard
drudging tyranny, but with all our rail-
ing we can not rail it out of existence
since it is of nature, which is
deaf and blind to praise and
blame alike. No individual, no
class, no nation has ever risen
in the world except it first succeeded
in wrestling the assurance of a 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 the resources sufficient And the
application to nature must be made
through work Work is the only prayer
she heeds. When, then. all women
come to that, as some are now doing,
their position in the world will be no
more in question than is mans position
at the present moment The position
of Independence is always beyond ques-
ton everywhere, and earning ones
own living is position Of independence
compared with getting it by depend
ence. from somewhere else.
1t is a curious example of the dimness
with which one sees through a social
environment that women are always
discussed as if for them at least it were
better to get no living and so perish
rather than to ''unsex themselves" as
the cant goes, by working for a living
As if no existence were preferable to
one with some drawbacks to maintain
it. The position is quite absurd; as on
that basis man might also reject life
because Of its tolls First get living,
then use it well, is the true principle

When hoops were worn by woman fair,
A nuisance they were found;
One ran against them everywhere,
The hoops were always round
And they retarded, It was clear
The rise of womanlIind,
For by the fashion to her sphere
Each woman was confined.
When hoops went out, by some cracked brair
The hustle was designed
And woman's fashions, 1t was plain,
Were getting quite behind
The hustle also saw its day,
Though to it they adhered
For years, ard when It passed away
The cltnging dress appeared
And as It suited old and young,
Twas worn without demur
To fashion woman long had clung
Now fashion chung 10 her
In time the train became the style,
And every woman wore 1t,
In fact the fashion for awhile
Swept everything before il.
And thus the years new fashions bring
Which flourish and decay;
The corset is the only thing
That ever came 10 stay

Miss Florence Routledge. daughter Of
the late George Routlegde, the we'll
known Fublisher. has for two years
ably filed the post Of honorable secre-

come authority on the subject Miss
Routledge has travelled extensively,
and only recently delivered an explain
atory lecture on the work of the Eng
lish league before the Societe d Etudes
Sociales ct Politiques at Brussels In
this talk she simply astounded the Bel
gians, who had not yet learned that
there were such things as women's
trade unions and that societies existed
for their promotion. They were still
further surprised. too to learn that
there should be a lady capable of elab-

the subject and most astounding of
all. that she should be prepared TO face
the perils of solitary journey from
England via Brussels to Brindisi, in or

self from a foreign point of view, she
can not do better than read the descrip-

on an old Song.

Little snatch OF ancient song,
What has made thee live so long2
Flying on thy wings Of rhyme,
Lightly down the paths Of time,
Telling nothing strange nor rare,
Scarce thought or image there,
Nothing but the old, old tale
or hapless lovers wall.
Offspring OF an idle hour,
Whence has come thy lasting powery
BY what term Of rhythm or phrase,
BY what subtle, careless grace,
Can thy music charm our ears,
After full three hundred years.
Little song, since thou vert born,
In the reformation morn,
How much great has passed away,
Shattered or by slow decay,
Stately piles In ruins crumbled,
Lordly houses lost and humbled,
Thrones and realms in darkness hurled.
Noble flags forever furled,
Wisest schemes by statesmen spun,
Time has seen them one By one,
Like the leaves of autumn fall
A little song Outlives them all.

Wen read that book, Wen sing that song
But when. Oh, when the days are long
When thoughts IRE free. and voices clear
Some happy time within the year.
The days troop by with noiseless tread,
The song unsung, the book unread.
Wen see that friend, and make him feel
The weight Of friendship, true as steel
Some flower OF sympathy bestow;
But time sweeps on with steady flow,
Until with quick reproachful tear,
We lay our flowers upon his bier.
And still we walk the desert sands,
And still with trifles ill our hands,
While ever Just beyond our reach,
A fairer purpose shows TO each.
The deeds we have not done. but willed,
Remain 10 haunt us-unfulhlled.

The cause of chronic diseases has at
last been discovered.
People have taken "Blood Purifiers
and wondered why there was no perma-
nent benefit derived.
DR.. Shoop has taken step in advance
of all others, by giving special study to
the cause of these increasing chronic
diseases.
He has found that certain nerves have
entire control over the stomach, liver,
kidneys and all internal organs. When
these nerves are weak, or exhausted, the
stomach will not digest the food, the liver
will become torpid and the whole system
will sink from this lack Of nerve force.
DIR. Shops Restorative is a
stomach, liver and kidney cure, as it acts
upon the nerves that control these organs.
