When we consider the extent and fer
tility of it's lands, the variety of its
agricultural products, its mineral re-
sources, it's manufacturing industries,
its facilities for transportation by land
mate, and everything else required for
material prosperity, it is very certain
there is no other block of land of eqnal
size upon the globe that possesses so
many of the essentials for the abode OF
civilized men.
In short, as an all around state. Ohio
has no superior, but when we come to
individualize our material resources, so
as to make them visible at the fair,
there is probably no one thing of spe-
cial Importance, in which we are not
eXcelled by some other state.
In this dilemma it was happy thought
of Gen. Brinkerhoff, at the banquet of
the Ohio Historical society year ago,
to recall the old truth that the glory of
nation is not so much in bigness or
riches as in the character of the men
and women it produces, and that judged
by this standard Ohio was absolutely
peerless among the states of the Union.
Let Ohio be represented at the expo
sition by group of statuary, in marble
or bronze as noble matron surrounded
by such children as Grant, Sherman,
Sheridan, Chase, Stanton and Garfield,
and put upon the pedestal, in bold re-
lief, the proud utterance of Cornelia, the
mother of the Gracchi: "'These Are My
Jewels" Would anybody doubt the pre-
eminence of Ohio among the states of
the Union?
Later on. when lot was assigned
for the Ohio building in the exposition
grounds with projection immedi-
ately in front of the west entrance
Of the great art building, at the
junction of two great thoroughfares
yer which the moving multitudes of
,eople must pass, thus affording the
best position in the whole grounds for
such a group of statuary, it was
brought to the attention of Capt Levi
T. Scofeld, the architect and sculptor
of the magnificent soldiers monument
at Cleveland, Ohio, and he has given
form to such group of statuary as rep
resented in the cut.at the head of this
article, which can be executed in bronze
and granite for S25, 000
The entire height of the group is 81
feet inches. The central figure OF
Ohio 10 feet, and the others ~ feet.
The base of the pedestal is IA feet in
diameter.
1t is so designed that when the fair
is over it can be removed to the center
of the rotunda of the capital at Colum-
bus as an ornament and an inspiration
for coming generations

"Cheap GlrIs.n

The unpleasant phrase "cheap girls"
has arrested my attention more than
once, and have wondered what sort of
girls they are. Are they those whose
loud laughter and talking draws to
them the attention of every one in the
car? Are they those whose voices cal
us to the window as they passP Do
they wear skirts so narrow, shoes so
tight, waist so small. that their gait is
an amusement or a marvel? Do they
puff up their shoulders above their ears,
and piece their skirts down from the
top in order that they may sweep the
streets? wonder are they the girls
who plane themselves in the way Of
young men? who "make errands :"
which will carry them into business
streets, and call frequently on girls
who have brothers? How easily their
Aimsy device is seen through, and what
sneers it occasions Dear girls, don't
be cheap. Don't make bargain

talk to the young man whose person
