THE VOORHEES, ELECTION, LAW.
Causes Great CONSERVATION Among
New Jersey Republicans.

Newark, y. J.. April 5.-Greater cou-
stcrnation could not have created
among the Republican leaders OF New
ark than was caused by the discovery
that the VOORHEES, supplement to the
election laws had already gone into ef-
fec, and would anect the spring cleo
ton. II had been generally supposed
That the act would not be operative
until July. Taking effect now, It wipes
out the county board OF registry and
elections and possibly the district cleo
ton officers: takes away from the
court OF common pleas the power OF re-
vlsing the registry lists for the ap-
preaching eiectfhn; makes possibly null
and void the registration uf yesterday,
and may throw doubt on the election Of
mex. Tuesday. That was all discov-
cred yesterday The Voorhees, bill.

whether the court OF common pleas
was authorized to revise the registry

der tho new law the court had no such
authority for revision.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health Of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; efectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you viii not
accept any substitute if offered.

The Story of WOmsn's Ambition Rhyth-

There was once a maid of progress.
full of culture most refined, and the
soul of her ambition was to elevate her
kind. She bemoaned her narrow sis
tiers of the straight domestic cut for
allowing love Ito drive them in the
matrimonial rut." Singing slumber-
songs for babies? What a shameful
waste" she said, when they ought to
raise their voices for their modern
rights instead, What an awful lot of
talent thrown away in darning socks.
What a vast amount of genius sewed
N seams of useless frocks, They should
seorn the drudging trifes that absorb
so much of life; keep the heart and
spirit far above the range of kitchen
strife; grasp the higher education,
win an independent claim; cleanse the
laws and aid the nation should be ev'ry
woman's aim.
But this charming maiden married.
and 1t was a great surprise how the
cream of her ambition was absorbed in
making pies; and the voice that rang
Tor progress, liberty and right hummed
a pleading tune to baby in the middle
Of the night; while the brain that was
so busy building castles in the air
scanned the butchers and the bakers
bills with close attentive care, and the
feet that trod the lecture-stage in
dainty CATERS clad ran the treadle Of
a new machine that stitched for lass
and lad Yet the strangest point pre-
sented in that charming woman's case
was the fitness and content with which
she dropped into her place; and she
changed her text to preaching that a
woman's proper sphere lies in doing
daily duties well and filling home with

emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported 10 us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for il. They have, III nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and vino were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial Of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that
fatal malady, all other medicines with
liver oil and its filthy "emulsious" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
