The vice presidency bill,
which passed the house and
was sent to the senate some
time since, has been somewhat
altered by this higher branch
Of congress. The bill. rs sent
up, empowered the president
to name his own successor dur

This was amended and return

The bill, as it now appears
delegates the authority, in an
emergency like stated above,
solely to Congress. The presi

Tho slender lilies nod their heads
On either side the garden way,
And all along the flower beds
Tail foxglovea gsand in fair array.
Tho throstle, in akio pear tree nea.,
Still carols, as when first We came,
Tho same old song he sang last year,
And we, we are no moro the same.
How strong the lilies SMELL How mead
The ordered rosebuds, row on row!
It's still the scene that seemed 80 sweet
A year ago--a year ago.
We noticed how that apple bougf
Stood out so green agailfat the elty.
It's Just as fair rs ever now,
But we are altered, You and l.
The days have come between MS two
And moved us ever moro apart
We cannot, as we used 10 do,
Tell to each other all our heart,
Only year since last we met,
But In that year what things have bcor
We walk, we talk together, yet
We cannot bridge the gulf between.
All looks unchanged save us alone,
We've drifted into other ways.
Timo turns the page, the pest is gone,
And naught restores tho vanished DAY
Tho flying hours now seunes reveal.
We never faneied, you md l,

Skin removing for Identifying pur-
poses is having great vogue among tho
women who can afford it. At present
the price for making over the face Of q
woman under so is $50. An older sub
ject who is greatly wrinkled has to pay
500. The operation confines one to her
room for five days and ia somewhat
painful, but not unbearably so, as tho
skin removing paste contains cocaine to
numb the surface it rests upon. An odd
thing is that if you have your wrinkles
removed before you are really an old
woman they will como again as you adj
vance to tho wrinkled age, but if you
have them removed after you are as
wrinkled as you are ever likely to be
they do not return. And danger Of
the operation, so far as its complete
success goes, is that you will move your
face while tho paste is getting in its
deadly work. If you do, a wrinkle
forms and cannot be got rid Of. Liter
ally you must bear the pain with an abb
solutely placid countenance. Even a
grin is detrimental. - Philadelphia

WOMEN AT FOOTBALL.


One OF the things the New Woman does
is to play football. In this latest devel-
opment English women seem to be ahead
of their American sisters. The picture
on this page is of the first match of the
British Ladies' Football Club. There are
both matrons and spiusiers in the club.
To tell the truth, football does not seem
well adapted to women. As spectacle,
it is interesting, but as game it is hard,
ly success. bicycling for women has
been generally adopted in America, and
yet how few women, comparatively, can
take such vigorous exercise as football or
lawn tennis suggests. A large proportion
of our young girls are merely pretty to

Of things lit shows itself in many ways.
At FIRST, perhaps a little heaviuess in the
stomach a little sourness, windy belclings
and heartburn Headaches begin to come
pretty soon after that and biliousness and
a foul taste in the mouth in the morning.
Chronic constipation is almost inevitable,
and it is probably the most serious trouble
that ever takes hold of man. It's seeming
simplicity Is the thing that makes it most
dangerous, because II leads to neglect.
Constipation means that the body is hold
ing poisonous, impure matter that should
be gotten rid of. The poison is being re-
absorbed into the blood and the whole body
IS being filed with it. Impurity in the
blood may lead to almost any disease.
There is no telling what may come Of it.
Constipation is the start of it all And yet
people are careless about it. 1t is the most
serious thing in the world, and the easiest
to cure if you go about II right. DR. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets cure constipation. Cure
1t positively, certainly, infallibly Cure it
so it stays cured. Cure it so you can stop
taking medicine.
And that is something that no other
remedy in the world will do.

The address read, some time ago, by

The address read, some time ago, by
Charles Noble Gregory, of Madison,
before the Wisconsin Academy of
Science, Arts and Letters, has been
issued in book form, and a copy is
before us. Its title Is "Political Cor
ruption and English and American
Laws for Its Prevention" 1t has re-
ceived the unqualified endorsement OF
statesmen of the highest standing, not
only In Wisconsin but throughout the
entire country. 1t is a thoughtful
and very able discussion Of one of the
great questions of our times. 1t bears
the stamp Of sincerity and uprightness
of purpose. The author, at the outset
calls attention to the fact that the
subject of Political Corruption In
Politics and Laws for It's Prevention"
has for fourteen years past greatly en-
gagged the wise attention OF English
law makers, and during the last three
years many bills have been offered,
some excellent laws passed and much
public discussion evoked on the sub
ject In our own country" He points
out how the passage Of Australian
ballot laws In many states has reduced
the old interference with the freedom
of voting; and we have only to look
back very few years to realize how
true his words are In this regard.
Truly In our own state Of Wisconsin
has grand progress been made. But
there are needed reforms yet to be &C
complished, and Mr. Gregory's plea
for these reforms is indeed timely.
He says:
The base and vicious doctrine that though
that IL IL wrong TO buy votes, " II we don't
the other side WILL" thnt we must :" fight fire
with fire." that anything N right II IL sue
cecds; these nro nll mnxims of evil which
sore aud hdurnte the conscience and the
heart They snp tho very foundation OF In
tcgrty and ruin all TINT rests thereon. They
touch with II nstlng blight tho roots OF char
actor and whether they nro In tho games OF
the boys or tho work of the mon, In tho ball
field or the caucus or convention or ut tho
polls, they are knavIsh and INSCRIPTIONS
and to be branded M such with "neither
honesty, nor manhood nor good fellowship IN
them"
A bill drawn by Mr.. Gregory, en-
titled "a bill to prevent corrupt prac-
tices In elections" Is now before the
Wisconsin legislature. Ii was intro
duced by Senator Mills. 1t ought to
become q law.

perstition Of which the past has no
equal, and which reckons among its
worshipers every one who sees in the
mere passage of some bill which rep.
resents his fad, the cure of all evils,
which he has in mind. God said, let
there be light, and there was light.
They say, let my bill be passed,
and Immediately all will be well.
Now our brother editor joins in this
cry, and he would reform the church
by tax. Tax the churches, which
are now largely given up to gossip,
etc, and this gossip, etc. will no
longer be heard in the land. Churches
are no longer to be reformed by the
grace Of God, by promoting the
spiritual life, but by tax. 1t may be
that churches are not what they should
be, because some preachers have been
teaching their own fads and whims,
and so the personal relation of Christi
anity to the world falls so short of
what it should be. Why not encour-
age the churches to cast out the evil?
Why not encourage the Episcopal
church to cast out these preachers
against which its pastoral letter is d.
rected. And do we give this encour-
agement by and through state tax?
The millennium will come by the
grace of God, not by taxing what rep
resents Gods cause in this world, but
by giving it every possible chance to
show its true colors, and to grow and
cast out whatever evil may be found
in its border. How can this chance
be increased by a state tax? Would
it not be better would it not hasten
this good time-if we should cease to
stand around with muck rakes, ever
raking in heaps, all possible evils,
and never seeing any good and max
ing the best of it? If we do not look
up now and then we will never see the
