In the very subordinate position Occu-
pied by the women of China we see the
fons ct origo of the evil. In d state
where women are degraded the whole
community suffers loss and the first
symptom Of the approach Of d healthy
and beneficial civilization is the elevation
of women TO their legitimate and useful
position in society. AT present no trace
OF the dawn of asbetter day appears on
the horizon of China, bus the example
which has been set by Japan leads one
to hope that the day is not far distant
when the slow-moVing Chinaman win
be induced 10 follow i'm the footsteps of
his more advanced neighbor.
Until quite recently the position OF
women in the land of the Rising Sun
was every whit as unworthy as that
now occupied by their Chinese sisters.

THE i.lustrious Daniel Webster
who is conceded to have been the
greatest of American statesmen
once said: "He who hampers with
the currency robs labor of its bread.
He panders, indeed, to greedy capt.
tai, which is keen sighted and may
shift for itself; but he bRggars labor,
which is honest, unsuspectiRg, and
too busy for the present to caleu-
late for the future. The prOsperi-
ty of the working class, lives, moves
and has its being in established cred
&c and a steady medium of payment.
All sudden changes destroy it.

Is done they should feel confident
that the purchasing power of the

for investing their all in provisions
or in the payment of their debts.
How true, as Dir. Webster states,
that sudden changes in the value of
money destroys the credit of the
working class. ANY legislation that
would cause the want of confidence
would surely injure the laborer's

Fast Enough.

An employee of large granite company
was driving from the station with several
kegs of blasting powder and dynamite car
tridges in his load and overlook young
man walking. Without waiting for an in
vitation the pedestrian sprang up into the
wagon and sat down upon one of the pow
der kegs.
He was talkative young man and be-
gan at once to make derogatory remarks
about the speed of the wagon or the lack
of it.
"We're passing everything on the road"
he said cheerily-"that is, everything that
is stationary"
Not receiving reply, he continued Il
was half mind to hire landslide or a
glacier just for speed, you know, but I
guess we are doing about as WELL"
He was silent for some time; then he
broke forth again:
II say-stop the horse! The earth is re-
volving fast enough to get us there"
just then he prepared to scratch match
on the keg. The driver spoke rather lazily:
IF you are goin my way, this is jest as
fast as it will be, but if you want to 60
straight up at right angles to the road jest
light that match on that powder-an you're

The Difference.

A very good story is going the rounds
about Jacob Tome, the millionaire bank
president, who the other day left package
containing $50, 900 in bank notes lying on a
car seat. As is we'll known, his wealth,
which is estimated at several millions, was
accumulated by hard work and shrewd in
vestments. He started life on raft and
at one time during his career was hostler
in Maryland. Some time ago, so the story
goes, friend Of his, who had been fellow
hostler in Tones early days and who had
never risen above that, approached him for
the loan of $3.50. He was informed that he
could have it upon producing proper secur-
ity. The demand for security ineensed Mr..
Tones hostler friend, and turning to him
he said, "Why, dang it, Jake, weren't you
and hostlers together?" and received the
reply, Eyes, and you're hostler still."-

The Era OF Music.

This an athletic age. Everybody wants
to be strong. The craze-for it has well
nigh reached that stage-atfects both
sexes and even childhood. The pugilistic
phase of this fad in young America is by
no means morally promising. But it is
one thing to be endowed with vigor and
another to be Sandowed with muscle.
Super muscularity is often induced by
physical effort perilous to health and cal
culate to shorten life. The vigor which
means regular and efficient discharge of
the physical functions, is the first medium
at which all may safely aim without caus-
ing ruptures or breaking blood vessels.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is largely
conducive to a gain in vigor of this sort,
since it stimulates and assists digestion,
promotes regularly bilious secretion and
keeps the bowels in order. Sleep, that
grand recuperator of nervous vigor, is
encouraged by ii, and it remedies mala-
ria, rheumatic and kidney trouble.

My Uncle Ephraim was man who did not live
In vain,
And yet why he succeeded so I never could ex-
By nature he was not endowed with wit to

But folks allowed there nowhere lived better

He started poor, but soon got rich; he went to

And held that post of honor long against much
bratnier men.
He never made famous speech nor did thing
Of note,
And yet the praise of Uncle Eph welled up
from every throat.

Such wealth and fame as Uncle Eph, 1.-THE

He was too honest and too smart for this vain
world, guess.
At any rate wondered he was unsuccessful
when
My Uncle Eph, a duller man, was so revered
OF men.
When Uncle Eph was dying, he called me to
his bed,
And in tone of confidence inviolate he said:
Dear Willyum, ere seek repose in yonder
blissful sphere,
fain would breathe q secret in your Adde'S

Strive not to hew your way through life-it

The Street Demon.

Inc atEeeS OemOns
There are oil kinds Of people abroad in the
street,
OF every condition and class.
Some jostle and crowd US whenever we meet
And others we peacefully pass.
But there's one we encounter wherever we
stray
OF whom we'd be gladly bereft--
Oh, why doesn't Providence call him away
The demon who turns to the left.
He seems to take pleasure in lodging about.
To him It's the highest delight
To fill your whole soul with horrible doubt
Ifhell turn to to the left or the right.
In manner that battles your reason complete,
With movement both subtle and deft
He'll manage to knock you clear off your feet,
The demon that turns to the left.
There's the woman we all of us frequently
meet,
With her parasol aimed at our eye,
And the cattle who all the while tramp on or
feet
They are all pretty hard to get by.
But there's no other lunatic running around
Who 80 sadly of sense is bereft--
No other blamed chump who is quite so pre-
found
AZ the damon who turns to the left.

Many preparations contain strong

produce an injurious effect, not only
upon the skin, but upon the whole

Despair.

Oh, am sick at heart. The eye Of day,
The insstent summer sun, seems pitiless,
Shining in all the barren crevices
OF weary life, leaving no shade, no dark,
Where may dream that hidden waters lie,
AS pitiless as to some shipwrecked man,
Who, gazing from his narrow shoal of sand
On the wide, unspecked round of blue and blue,
Sees that full light is errorless despair.
The insects hum that slurs the silent dark
Startles and seems to cheat me, as the tread
OF coming footsteps cheats the midnight
watcher
Who holds her heart and waits to hear them
pause,
And hears them never pause, but pass and die
Music sweeps by me as q messenger
Carrying q message that is not for me.
The very sameness Of the hills and sky
Is obduracy, and the lingering hours
Wait round me dumbly, like superfluous slaves,
OF whom I want naught but the secret news
They are forbid to tell.
