and, sad as the fact is to all old New
Workers, we are compelled to put up with
something newer and less hearty, if not
less satisfactory as well. No one who
lays claim to any social rank let it be
even an humble one, will keep open house
on the initial day of 1894. No gayly
dressed women will transgress all rules
and make themselves brave in evening at
tire from 10 in the morning to 10 at night.
No hurrying callers will rush through the
otherwise deserted streets and no feeling
OF sociability and hospitality will pervade
the air. Instead, houses will either be
closed or pretended to be, fashionable
folk will leave the town and only the
hopelessly lost will have the courage to
openly wish each Other good cheer and to
utter the Happy New Year that was on
every tongue. The edict has gone forth
and even the last rebellious spirits have
succimbed. New Years day is a day
OF hospitality no more: other and charm
ing customs are coming in and certain
Preparations are bling made, but the glory
of decade ago is unknown and what
ever crops up to take its place will be
exclusive, quiet, mayhap more elegant.

ReaI Merit

Is the Characteristic of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, and 1t is manifested every day
in the remarkable cures this medicine
accomplishes. Druggists say: when
we sell a bottle % Hoods Sarsal a.
rilla to a new customer we are sure
to see him back in a few weeks after
more-proving that the good results
from a trial f.ottle warrant continuing
its use. This positive merit Hoods
Sarasaparilla possesses by virtue of
the peculiar coml,ina ton, l,lonorti5n
and process used in its preparation,
and by which Ill the remedial value
Of the ingredients used is retained.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is thus peculiar TO

Ellen Terry,s Birthp1ace.

Where was Ellen Terry born? No
body seems to know exactly. She does
not even know herself, but thinks it
must have been some inn or lodging

that town attempted to solve the mys-
terry by placing a card in his window
bearing the inscription, "This is the

Mechanical Toys Retard imagination

1t is said by a Frenchman that the
indulgence of American children in so
many toys of mechanical perfection
does less 10 stimulate the imagination
than simpler contrivances, that leave
something to the invention of the
child. The doll that will talk and cry,
the train of cars that has only to be
wound up to make it go. the dancing
bears ard the good-sized houses that
aim to be exact copies of those in
which the little lad or lassie live-do
they indeed make children pretend
or imagine less than when the little
girl must talk and cry for her do
and the boy must not only be a steam
engine but a whole train of cars or a
tribe of Indians ?-Springfield Repub-

Meek Benedicts of France.

If one is to believe the Fren; h-Hebrew
scholar, NJ. Ledrain--who, by the way,
is a bachelor, and as such must be charged
with incompetency-F're are the
slaves, not Freach women. The latter
rule their meek husbands and meeker
male friends, and acquaintances with a
hand of iron. Especially is this the case
with the Parisienne, says NJ. Ledrain,
who, once she her beguiled a helpless man
into matrimony, lpsets his house. dis
turbes his habits and thwarts his wishes;
nay, even takes a malicious pleasure in
forestailing his desires, so that she may
have the chance of overturning every
one of his schemes before he has even
confided them 10 her.-New York Sun.

VISITING BOSTON.
Mrs. Lease Gives Her Opinions on Ques-
tions of the Day.

tions of the Day.
Boston. March 3-Mrs. Mary f. Lease
of Kansas arrived in Boston yesterday
afternoon from New York. She is to lee.
ture in New England during the next
three weeks. Mrs. Lease consented to an
interview when requested by a reporter,
who was on hand to meet her. She spoke
readily upon all subjects broached, ex-
cept when Masonry was suggested.
Speaking of the decision of the supreme
court of Massachusetts against woman
suffrage, Mrs. Lease thought il a gain for
the cause in the east, especially when the
numerical division of the bench, 4
against and for, was considered.
"The adverse decision Is hot discourag-
ing" said Mrs. Leash ION the contrary,
1t shows that the question is awakening
greater interest than ever before. As TO
the antipathy of women already entitled
to vote for certain public officers, nothing
Is to be said. Universal suffrage is undeni-
ably and forever right in principle, and is
bound to prevail"
Mrs. Lease has given great deal of at
tention to the problem presented by the
army of unemployed. She says the dis
tress is due solely to lack OF money as
medium of exchange. "A cramped cir
culatioh is the disease, and demonetiza-
ton of gold is the remedy"
II don't care TO say much about
Masonry replied Mrs Lease to a query
In that direction. "But il women are en-
titled TO suffrage, why are they not en-
titled to all excellent things. No; / am
not going to tabIish woman's branch of
the Masonic order, but, together with
several prominent women in the land,
have already begun TO form an order on
lines similar, perhaps. but much broader.
How would The Maids and Matrons of
Accepted Masonry soundw she asked, as
she indicated that the interview was at an
end.

DEGREES OF PEIXOTO
Which Indicate That He Has Not Yet
Given Up the Fight.

Given Up the Fight.
Rio DE JASEIRo. March 3.-On all sides
here people are congratulating them
selves that the election passed off quietly;
but the action taken by President Peixoto
would seem TO denote that further trouble
h brewing. and that the end of the weari-
some revolution is not SO near at hand as
1t was mt first believed.
President Peixoto issued two important
DEGREES yesterday. The first of these calls
for an increase in the strength of the
regular army. and will therefore impose
additional burdens upon the people and
increase the already heavy taxation to a
great degree
This increase Of the strength OF the reg
ular army il said to be the first step in a
movement n crush out the rebellion in
this ighborhood and in the south. and
should this object be attained, IL may bo
said that the additional burden which the
people will be called upon to bear will,
after all, be blessing in disguise.
The second decree issued by the presi-
dent provides that persons accused Of
treason shall be tried by military law,
which would seem to indicate that adj
ditional repressive measures are neces-
sary. At the same time, IL is announced
that martial law will not be proclaimed
30 long as the situation remains as tran
Quil as it is now
