In the forests Of Oregon, Washington,

Sunday he became 50 crgrossed in his

was becoming somewhat wearied. He
was anxious to close, but could see no

NJ, Violet has written an essay upon
the causes which led to females being
excluded from succession to the throne
Of France. According to him, the prin-
chile was elaborated in the period Of
about 1870 years comprised between the
death of Louis X and the final triumph
Of Charles VII and became a funda-
mental law of the monarchy when the
daughter Of Louis X, the daughter Of
Philippe lie Long and the daughters of
Charles lie Bel were deprived Of their fa-
Tiers succession. These precedents es-
ablihed the law on the subject, but it
bnot generally known that the history
dthe disputed SUGGESTIONS to the French
throne commenced by the indirect recog-
milton of female rights.-London Times.

Probably the time is coming In the
halcyon future when everything that
everybody does will be open and above

that the impertineut press is helping 10
bring about that day. The fear Of pub
LEFTY deters many a man FROM doing
wrong or delivers him from the tempta-

unfair advantage Of their fellow men be-
cause of their poverty or ignorance OF
weakness OF for any other reason find
an obstacle in the light which the press
throws upon their actions and motions.
Individual newspapers have their idiosyn-
crasies and other faults, but as a whole
the press believes in right living. honest
dealing, truth telling and doing as You
