ga Serious Proposal to Ladies'"

Really there is nothing new under the
sun. Even the doctrine of woman's rights
is not at all nineteenth century idea as
the reformers would have it appear. Two
centuries ago there lived the woman who
was the first advocate of womans rights.
This good lady's name was Mrs. Mary AS
tell, and she published her theories in
little book called "a Serious Proposal to
the Ladies For the Advancement of Their
True and Greatest Interest, by n Lover OF
Her Sex"
This book was printed in 1894, and there
in the good lady implores women "not to
be content to be in the world like tulips in
a garden, TO make fine show and be good
for nothing" She also says that women
value men too much and themselves too
little, and that they "should be capable of
nobler things than the pitiful conquest of
some poor human heart, for a woman
should always remember that she has no
mighty obligation to the man who makes
love to her, she has no reason to be fond
of being wife or to reckon 1t price %
of preferment when she is taken to be n
mans upper servant" Ye gods and little
fishes, to think that radical sentiment was
written 200 years agol And what glori-
GUS woman's club president Dame Astell
would have made If she were alive today
And still the foolish mind of woman seems
ever bent on 'the pitiful conquest of some
poor human heart" for which the gods
be thanked, else how would there be any
woman born to prate and prattle Of the
rights of their sex?-Neto York Sun.

IN GENERAL.
Our Saints.

IT'S not alone from legend and old story
IT'S not alone from canvas dark with time.
That holy saints, crowned with celestial glory,
Smile down upon us from their height sublime.
Not only from church windows colored brightly,
Do their blessed shadows fall across the way;
All, not alone in inches cleaning Whitley,
With folded hands do they stand night and day.
Who Ia there in this world who has not. hidden
Deep in his heart. picture clear faint,
Yelled, sacred, to the outer world forbidden,
Ger which he bends and murmurs low, my
saint?"
A face, perhaps. all written DER with sorrow,
Whose faded eyes are dim with unsbed tears;
And yet they hopefully look toward the morrow
And far beyond it, into brighter spheres.
A face whence all the sunshine of the morning
And brightness of the noon have passed away;
And yet, where clearly, surely, there is dawning
The wondrous radiance of that perfect day.
That perfect day, when, crowned with heavens
brightness,
without a pain mortal need,
with conqueror's palm, in robes OF snowy white
ness,
Our blessed shall stand, as very saints indeed
Yes, God be thanked, though the pure saints of
story,
And holy martyrs that the artist paints,
Are yelled in radiance and crowned with glory,
There still are halos for these unknown saints.

A Spelling Lesson.

There lived man in Mexico,
Who all his life did battle
To rightly spell such easy words
AS Nahuatlacatl.
He wrote the names of all the towns
1t took Of ink bottle,
But could not spell renochtltlan
Nor plain Tlacatecotl
He went to spelling school each day,
And though a man Of mettle
He could not conquer Topiltzan
Nor Huitzllopochetl.
He dwelt some time in Yucatan,
And there at rzompantilli
He learned to spell one little word,
Twas ziuhonolpilli.
The Joy Of spelling just one word
Did all his mind unsettle,
But, spelling still, he choked at last
On Popocatepetl.

How Impositions Can lie Carried Out IN

How Impositions Can lie Carried Out IN
Matters Of Identification.
The unreliability of evidence Of
Identification has long been recog-
niei," said Charles w. Fisher, OF
Rochester, n. Y, who was at the
Lindell, to the ST Louis Globe-Demo-
crat.
1t is even possible for a man to
identify himself, or rather to claim
that a dead body is his own, when he
wants to make it appear that he is
dead. A man who deserted his family
come years ago had the audacity to do
this. Reaching a town far enough
away from home to IN Ike inquiries
difficult. he deliberately visited tho
morgue and identified the dead body
of a stranger as that OF his own, giving
q false name and address and claiming
that the deccase had accompanied
him from Rochester and had gone out
the previous evening to hunt up some
friends. A marked copy of a newspa-
per reporting the Identification was
mailed to the deserted wife, and whan
later she desired to get married again
she wrote and obtained what purport-
ed to be burial certificate Of her own
husband. a year or two later the
truant husband repented and returned
to his home to find that he had been
hoist with his own petard and that all
his deceit had resulted in was inveig-
ling his wife into an act of uncon-
scious bisamy."
