SToCKs-The bears were again In
control of the Stock Exchange and
succeeded in bringing about further ma
terial decline in prices for some stocks,
mostly among the Industrial group The
firmness of sterling exchange, the fear OF
further gold shipments and light money
materially assisted the downward move
ment. The drop in prices brought
out long stock held by the timid
and financially weak operators, but
the selling for the short account was also
heavy and the outstanding short interest IS
now heavier than for q long time. During
the afternoon steadier tone prevailed
and, although the fluctuations were fire.
quent, the tendency Of prices in the main
was upward. Railroad stocks were COM
paratively firm, closing 4 to l per cent.

ease in money stimulated purchases and

Society Is not, and ought not be;
exclusively devoted to serious con-
Germs. The beneficent Creator of the
universe would not have adapted hui
man beings to the enjoyment OF his
gifts unless he intended that they
should be enjoyed. With the law
which enjoins industry comes the law
OF fruition. Why should the eye be
formed to perceive natural and arti-
fetal beauty IL it is not to be used
for that purpose?
Why has the capacity to make in
struments capable of emitting sweet
sounds been given Ii such sounds are
not to be- heard? Why should the
human structure be capable of the
sweetest melody, and of graceful ac-
ton, and of the delightful express
sion beamlng from innocent and
heavenly countenances, IL pleasures
from such sources were forbidden us?
Why does the grape rlpeh, the silk
worm toll, the annual fleece return,
the diamond sparkle, the marble
yield to the chisel, and the canvas
catch and preserve the inspiration Of
Crawford avalanche. (Grayling, Mich.) 1879-19??, 1893-01-05
The wives of Barca.

In the valley of the Barca in Abys-
sinia there is, according to recently
returned traveller, community
where the women, without holding a
meeting or agitation of any kind, have
emancipated themselves. All tn,
women work hard while the men are
idle, but by way of compensation the
house and all it contains belongs to
the wife. At the least unkind word
she turns the husband out at night,
in storm or rain, and he can't come
back until he makes amends by the
gift Of COW. The wife considers il
a duty to abuse the husband, and If
she were weak enough to show any
love for him in life or grief at his
death she would be scorned by her
tribe. The wife, without any reason,
may strike her tent and go, taking
with her one-third of the joint POS
sessions. The husband, unless he is
travelling, may not live out of his
tent, but the wife may go to her par
ents for year and annul for the time
her own marriage.
In all of this the secret of emanci-
patton toward which women are
blindly struggling is hidden. The
emancipation OF the wife c0mes only
when she entirely supports her lord
and master, thus rendering herself
indispensable to his comfort. And
possibly emancipation on these terms
might not be as desirable as the pres
ent regime Of shopping in the morn
ing, taking nap in the afternoon,
and accompanying somebody to the
theater at night.
