The Efforts That Are Being Put Forth in
Their Behalf in the South.
A recent mum Der of the Philadelphia
Lcdgers "household" column is de-
voted to the southern woman students,
particularly the medical students She
is pictured in 'her gray serge gown,
Tam o. Shanter cap of dark cloth, and
daintily glovcd and shod; with her soft
voice and the winning manners so ma
tive to her" Efforts throughout the
southern states are being put forth to
make obligatory that the position of
physician in charge shall be held by
women only in hospitals where insane
women are sent for treatment Vir-
ginia has passed such law.
The southern states were behind
those of the north and west in making
the move toward q medical education
for women, as the records of the
Pennsylvania womans medical college,
which they generally select, will show.
In 1883 this college graduated one south
ern woman, DIR! Calls Lee Haynes, of
South Carolina. This year there are
twenty-five in the college. DR.. Haynes
has for the past two years served as
resident physician in the insane asylum
at Stanton, Va Five of the students at
the present time in the Pennsylvania
college plan to go as medical mission
airies to work in foreign lands. The
rest expect to return south and take up
general practice,

there is not Bryn Mawr college or

In WOMAN'S BEHALF.
woMAN's PLACE IN NATURE.
Her First Duty Is to Get a Living and Then
Use 1t Well.

1cE but9 u ptN "a Living anu Incu
Use 1t Well.
The sooner women realize the truth
of their position as theory and bodily
act upon it, the better it 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.
Natural laws starve women as inditfar-
entity as they do men, and find il no
more harm The recognition of " en-
ans place in nature as being primarily
that of female animal, whose first
business it is to get 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-the mere hard unquestiona'
BILE 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 wrctched 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 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 needs 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 a position of independence
compared with getting it by depend
ence, from somewhere else.
1t is curious example of the dimness
with which one sees through 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 draw backs 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

Whisky without the Smell.

According to the Philadelphia Rec
ord, recent experiments made by the
proprietors of distillery of that city
have resulted in the production of a
kind of whisky which leaves no sus-
picion of an odor upon the breath. 1t
is said of It that the new whisky has
the same effect upon the brain and the
legs as that now in use. 1t is greatly
to be hoped that, because it will not so
readily betray the drinkers to their
friends, it will not therefore come into
more general use than the old kind
with the strong odor and full of mis-
chief. Like the odorless sewer gas, it
may be all the more dangerous be-
cause its presence is not SO readily per-
ceived. National Temperance Advo-

After the enumeration of conditions
which will prevent the granting of
LICENSES in specified places and to men
of a certain character, the bills iron
clad provisions for the control of the
retail trade in whisky, brandy, etc,
are stated. These strong spirituous
liquors may not be sold in less than
half-pint quantities or in rooms occu-
pied for ether mercantile purposes.
Every landlord shall be arrested as
soon as he is discovered not to have
taken all possible steps to keep his
place clear of drunkards, thieves and
questionable women.
In case man becomes drunk in a
saloon he may be elected only when
the landlord has arranged to have him
taken home in cab or by specially
employed escort. The expenses of get.
ting drunken man from the saloon to
his lodgings are to be paid eventually
by the man himself. All drinks must
be paid for before the drinker leaves
the saloon. Local authorities may for.
bid the opening of saloons between mid.
hight and eight a. M, and may prohibit
the employment of mattresses wher,
ever strong spirituous liquors are sold.

Miss Florence Routledge, daughter of
the late George Routlegde. the we'll

ably filed the post of honorable secre-

of London In this capacity she has
worked faithfully in organizing meet

Routledge has travelled extensively,
and only recently delivered an explain

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 lady capable of elab-

LIQUOR DRINKING IN FRANCS.
Consumption Per Head Larger Than In
England.


England.
There is drink question in France,
as we'll as in England, and, as a pastor
remarked at the Oratoire church at a
meeting of the McAll Missions, drunk
enness is likely if allowed to increase
without check to prove the rutS of
France. The consumption per head of
ALCOHOL in this country is alread- larger
by great deal than in Engla.,1. A
large proportion of this alcohcS is,
however. in the form of wine, which,
particularly if not taken between
meals, may be considered less harm
full than spirits ordinarily used in Eng
land.
On the othes hand, Frenchmen of all
classes indulge in number of drinks
called appetizers, probably because
they destroy the appetite, which are
nothing less than rank poison, and are
but little known on the other side OF
the channel. Among these are alb

which has rendered great service in de.

on the public houses in the suburbs
