1t used to be said that women are
only reached by personal argu-
ment, and that they do not care
much Tor justice in the abstract.
This is not always the case. Lucy
Stones persistent, lifelong demand
for social, industrial, legal and poit-
ical equality for women was not
based SO much upon a sense Of per-
sonal wrong as upon her observation
of the wrongs endured by other
women. Above all, it was based
upon a profound conviction that the
equal participation of women in ev,
ery field of human activity. as CO.
workers with men, is essential to
women's personal safety, to the
highest interests OF both sexes, and
to the public welfare. philadelphia

The Coiors OF Gold.

Most people suppose that all gold Is
alike when refined, but this Is not the case
An experienced man can tell at a glance
from what part of the world goldpioce
comes and In some cases from what part
of particular gold district the metal is
obtained Tho Australian gold, for in
stance, is distinctly rcdder than the Cali
fornian, and this difference in color is al
ways percephble.
Again, the gold obtained from the plac-
ers Is more yellow than that which is TAX
EN- directly from the quartz. Why this
should be tho case is one Of tho mysteries
OF metallurpy, for the placer gold all comes
from the veins. The Ural gold is the red
dcst found anywhere
Few people know the real color of gold,
as il Is seldom seen unless heavily slloyed,
which renders it redder than when pure
The pureSt coins ever made were the $50

Two Points For Cigar Smokers.

"There are two things which all cigar
makers might observe with profit to them
selves" said IT, c. Brownlow. Mr.. Brown
low travels for large cigar manufactory
and knows thing or two about the ethics
of smoking. Before lighting q cigar bite
of the end, and placing the end TO be
lighted btwrcn your lips, blow through II.
In this way you get rid of fine dust that
accumulstss In cigar when 10 is dry,
which - apt to iniane your vocal chords
and injure your voice. IL Is a valuable
hint for singers, and 1 know Of quite a
number of professional opera singers who
never light a cigar until they have blown
out the dust To the failure to do this
may be attributed In great part the throat
diseases with which steady smokers are
afflicted.
Another valuable suggestion from an
economic standpoint Is to thrust your cl-
gar into your vest pocket with the pointed
end up. Many vest pockets are 40 shallow
as TO cause the end of a cigar to stick out
over the edge. The rubbing of the coat
against the large end, which Is very much
moro sensitive than the other, causes it TO
fray and break, nccessitstlng tho wetting
Of the wrapper In order to make the cigar
available ~ all. Any one who will net on
these two hints will live longer and save
money. ."-Washington Post.
