The Easter Youths Companion.

Among the many attractive and hand
some Easter numbers so popular among
readers of magazines and papers, the
Youths Companion excels in apprOpri-
ateness to the season and in the excep-
tional quality Of its reading matter.
'The Story Of Statue" by the Mar
quis Of LOrne, prepared for the Compan-
ion in collaboration with the Princess
Louise, is an article of rare interest.
'DOrOthy's Easter" and a Corner in
Eggs" are two typical Easter stories
well worth twice reading. 'The Ro-
nance Of ShOal," an adventure story
by W. Clark Russell, would be hard to
duplicate. :.
Each one Of the entire collection Of
stories deserves special mention, and
with the miscellany, poetry, etc, collect
ed in this one issue is worth the price Of
the paper for the entire year.

TO SAVE THE BIRDS.
The Chicago Audubon Society the Only
Ono of It's Kind.

The Chicago Audubon Society the Only
Ono of It's Kind.
The up-to-date woman may have po-
litical bees in her Sunday bonnet, if
she likes, but the Chicago Audubon So
ciety insists she shall not indulge in
dead birds. This fashionable adorn-
ment is ehphatically declared to be
thoughtless cruelty. In a word, the
object of this comparatively new and
unique organization of men and women
is the protection of birds. To this end
Q monthly meeting is held, says the
Times Herald.
So extensive has become the killing
of birds for feminine fashion that the
subject is attracting widespread atten-
tion among ornithologists. The, Chi
cago Audubon society, however, claims
to be the only organization formed for
the condemnation of the use of birds
for millinery purposes.
At the regular meeting held the other
afternoon Rev. George Pratt read a pa
per on Amateur ornithology," fol-
lowed by musical numbers. The au-
dience was made up mostly of women
who practice what they preach by not
wearing birds in their bonnets, though
they indulge in ostrich plumes, on the
plea that this does not necessitate the
killing Of the bird.
"There are eight million birds slaugh-
tered annually in the name of fashion" I"
said Mrs. E. Irene Rood, president Of
the society. "As an organization we
propose to be instrumental in the pro-
lection of birds and in time introduce
such bills in the legislature. At present
we are much interested in the bill now
pending, which relates to the game
laws of Illinois.
"The Chicago Audubon society is, l
believe, the only organization Of the
kind In the United States," she, con-
tinued. "There was one in New York,
but 1t has disbanded."
The society numbers forty-four mem
bers and was organized several months
ago. 49,

vertlsements.
Did you ever answer an advertise,
ment in the want column and learn
after long days of waiting that you
were not wanted? Did you ever insert
timid "want" yourself and have no
other satisfaction than the meager one
of reading it In print? Then you have
no skill to read between the lines Of
your newspaper, says Kate Fields
Washington.
Take any three advertisements for
work in New York daily and try to
see the man or woman it represents.
Observation-Disclosures boarders in a

resolved on such plan, being tired OF
dressmaking and thinking this an easier
task. She met with but what few
women would have won-success. She
had no lack of boarders, but after few
months trial she decided, with a very
weary smile, that of the two horrors,
dressmaking was the least to be
dreaded.

than of any other kind of instruction,

In another "a young man of twenty
three wants position to do anything"
Is 1t possible that there is any man who
has reached the age of twenty-three
and learned no more about the world?
Who would dare to employ man Of
such wide ability? This is even more
sad than the other two, for the trouble
this time is in the man himself. What
these three advertisements reveal is an
utter lack of practical knowledge and
of how to make ones way in the world,
and the fault is with the parents. A
man who gives his children absolutely
no means Of support is more cruel than
the man who leaves his little one,to die
in the street. 1t is the fashion in these
days to bring up ones sons and daugh-
ters in luxury, accustom them to the
thought that "what is will always be"
and, Mt the first hint of misfortune, to
commit suicide and leave them more
ignorant of how to earn their own
bread than the little girl who tries to
cell you paper flowers.
A man recently received eighty

He might ask again: Can ye not dis

very plain-that our young men and

ure as object-lessons in the want" col

Upon a careful review OF the facts in
the unfortunate controversy between
Messrs. Wean and Webster on the one
side and DR.. j. W. HOughton on the
other, which has appeared in these col
umns, it becomes necessary to confess to
some grievous errors. There is not the
slightest doubt but that Elmer s. Hough-
ton is alone responsible for the article
signed "W' over which this controversy
was begun. My wrong impression of
authorship was occasioned by mis-
understanding of the facts concerning
the writing. 1t is exceedinly unfOrtu-
nate for the doctor that he agreed to
stand as author for any reason whatever.
Beyond reading the proof and ascertain
ing at Elmer's request the approximate
cost Of public Improvements during the
last thirty years, am now satisfied that
the doctor had nothing whatever to do
with the article in question. But it is
still more unfortunate that any articles
were allowed to appear in this paper
which dealt largely with the supposed
author rather than with arguments and
statements contained in the report of the
waterworks meeting signed "W."
Owing to the fact that my opinions
were based on appearances rather than
positive information, some statements
were made to others which led them to
erroneous conclusions. 1 am able how
ever to completely exOnerate the doctor
from all the grave charges that have
grown out Of this discussion.
To the public and all concerned l make
a full apology and acknowledgment.

Wooden Rails for a Florida Road.

The citizens of Avon Park and Haincs
City, Fla, forty miles distant, have de-
cided, according to correspondent Of
the Manufacturers Record, to build q
railroad with wood rails, which are
large enough to be laid SO that they
will be half-imbedded in the sand,
without other ballast. They are to be
held in position by wooden pins two
inches In diameter and eighteen inches
long, while the ends are connected by
plank couplers placed underneath and
held by pins. Not pound of metal
will be used in construction of the
tracks. Most of the ''rails" will be fur
nishcd gratis by property owners along
the right of way.. The company be-
lieves that in a few years the fruit,
vegetable and passenger business over
the route will pay for regular steel
rails, when the others will be used for
ties. A small steam dummy will fur
nish power for the road.

WHAT is 1T BEST TO Do9

The republican party has been the
party Of progress and the question now
arises are we going to discontinue that
line of warfare. We came into power
March 4, 1861 and continued to control
until March 4, 1893. In 1868 we set the
slave free, and in 1867 we made him a
citizen. At the latter date we lost the
general assembly and came near losing
the governor, but we went ahead regard
less of defeat, still demonstrating to the
people that we were the party to look to
for reforms.
AT the present time the temperance
movement is being agitated in many
localities and demands recognition by
the republican party. The candidates
for state senator and representative have
been requested to commit themselves to
the Haskell bill or similar measure to
bring about county local option, but these
gentlemen decline. The Elyria Reporter
recommends that the temperance ele-
ment step outside and nominate their
man. This, in our judgment, would be
a bad plan to adopt. The anti-salOOn
voters are legion, and are multiplying
rapidly and, if the temperance plank is
recognized, large following from the
prohibition ranks, without doubt, can
be relied upon, so if we should lose few
republican votes on account of placing
candidates in the, field pledged to the
temperance cause. we are still sure Of
victory at the polls. Now can we, as a
party that the people look to for reform,
afford to come to a standstill and permit
so important measure as the temper
ance cause go by unnoticed or shall we
go ahead and shoulder the additional
burden and preserve our pristine purity.
All that the temperance people ask is
that the candidates for the Legislature
shall say that they will vote upon any
measure upon which the republicans Of
their district see fit to express them
selves as the majority Of the republican
party Of the district desire.
