spite of those who had other business on hand more important than "the rights of free speech and the liberty of a free people" When he had finished and when there had been more free speech the citizens exercised their free dom of action and voted for consollda- ton. The Sunday Register comments them for so exercising their freedom of action, but condemns them for eXercis- ing it in allowing Anthony Carroll to talk when there was deliberate and not very polite attempt to prevent him from talking.
 Anthony Carroll and the citizens who gave him chance to talk are not the ones who have assailed the rights of free speech and the liberty of a free people" The Sunday Register has done that. It has placed business, conven- fence, comfort and consolidation before those rights and that liberty. And at the end of it's long, indefinite and dis comforting article on free speech and liberty it coolly says: Tt is not free dom that man shall ramble on indefi- nitely to the discomfort of others" For tunately for the Register it sometimes and in some cases is,

of barbarism which could only be de- scribed by the term alcoholic barbarian. From statistics furnished by him, it ap- pears that the revenue from the excise, which amounted to four millions of francs in 1851, has now reached the total of 3S,OOO, ,OO0; that during the same period the number of public houses has in- crease from LOGO to 175,OOO, and that the annual consumption of spirits is at the rate of 12 litres per head for the entire population, or AS litres per adult. His figures show also that from 1851 to 1888 crimlnallty increased at the rate of 200 per cent, and insanity at the rate of 138 per cent, and that of every hundred deaths among the male portion of the community 80 can be traced to alcholio causes. M Lejeune attributes this dis astrous state of things to two causes. The first is the insufIiciency of the food procurable by the working classes and the second the poisonous quality of the spirits purchased by them.

ARE THEY IDIOTS ?

Survey the long line of hideous de | formities which have followed eacf
 other in rapid succession within the past thirty years-that monstrosity, the enormous hoop, which disappeared only to give way to the unsightly hustle and torturing pullback; the sldn-tight paral- yzing sleeve, which has been followed by one of balloon proportions; enormous hats, made more formidable still by erect, hearse-lil1e plumes ntertwined with dead birds and animals; and again, diminutive connections of tinsel and flowers, offering no protection to the head; trailing skirts which formed themselves into repositories for the filth of the pavements; shoulders broad ened by multitudinous capes, until the wearer, although she may possess the proportions of a Juno, becomes as. gro- tesque as an Egyptian idol; the present alarming eruption of haircloth. Women are not idiots because they have worn such injurious clothing, but have chosen such clothing because they are idiots.
 Who is this that has dared to say that women have shown their idiooy In their choice of clothes? It is not a man, but woman-a delegate to the National Council Of Women at Wash ington. And they do say that at the very time when she was making these remarks she was arrayed even as one of the alleged idiots. But her protest is cheering. It shows that she realizes her sad condition and such realization is the first step toward Improvement. If she can stir her dear sisters up by calling them idiots she may do some good. They are certainly slaves, and slaves to very tyrannical master The emancipation of Woman will be but a high-sounding phrase as long as she continues to be the slave of Fashion.

quently used bills and. coins in this practice. Tn this way, probably, the animal learned to distinguish the pe- culiar scent of money, for it has an aroma that is acquired from being car- ried on the person. But no matter what his secret is, Shot IS a lucky dog in every sense of the word, for he never comes across money that he does not eagerly pick 1t up and race home with it, And he'll bring lots of other things that evidently appear to him as useful, If there is an old cast-off hat in his course he'll carry it to Harrison. and old rags of clothing are as dutifully taken the same way. He's an excellent field dog also, but has never been known to retrieve a bird. So Shot is q sort of canine paradox in his run-and-fetch qualities"

 Some think the Sunday Register is
 wicked because it is published on Sun
 day. There may, we suppose, fairly
 be some doubt about its wickedness on
 that account, but there can be none
 about it's quality when it attacks free
 dom of speech and freedom of action as it did yesterday. To have any doubt about that performance would be to imply that the Sunday Register lacks in intellectual rather than in moral strength, and nobody would be so fool ish as to imply that.
 The Sunday Register protests because Townsman, whom it does not name, but who is none other than Anthony Carroll, was allowed to talk himself out at the Town meeting last Tuesday, It says that thus "the rights of free speech and the liberty of a free people were being abused instead of protected, and that the rights of an individual were secured to him regardless of the rights of the other thousand and odd individuals present" Passing by the fact that, according to the Registers own report of the meeting, there were only about. or fully, 600" people pres ent instead of "a thousand and odd, let us see just what was done for or against "the rights of free speech and the liberty of free people," It was plain from the start that the consolida- tionists were in the majority. and though they did not pack the big hall, it was charged that they packed the meeting. Anthony Carroll felt moved to speak against consolidation, and he did speak in very free and sturdy way. The Register said that "cries arose all over the hall for him to sit down." MT. Carroll said, according to the Register: T don't propose that any man shall tell me to sit down." Then, still according to the Register "this called forth almost a unanimous cry from the meeting to sit down." MT. Carroll said: T will not sit down." Then two distinguished attorneys tried to fix things so that he could be silenced and seated. Still according to the Register: "This attempt to choke off MT. Carroll aroused strenuous op- position on the ground that it was wholly wrong to choke off citizen in that way, and MT. filling withdrew his motion. For few minutes matters looked stormy but when MT. Carroll was allowed to continue the hitch was smoothed out. MT. Carroll continued to speak for some minutes, when he finally sat down amid applause"
 Now what had happened when MT. Carroll finally sat down amid applause? | Had "the rights of free speech and the 1 liberty of a free people" been abused? | Not much. They had been most strik- ingly and consistently maintained. Most | of the people who attended that meet ing were there for the purpose of voting for consolidation. They didn't want to hear anything about the other side of the question. And perhaps they did not want to hear Anthony Carroll speak on any subject, But they were American and when the consolidation lawyers tried to put him into silence and seat the spirit of '76 woke up in most of the citizens and they felt it more important than anything else hat Anthony Carroll should be allowed to talk And he, was allowed to talk in

This weave wears well, and combines two colors nicely, dark blue, dull brown, dark green and red being each woven in basket effect with black. Such stuffs make up excellently in the serni-tailor style that is so suitable for many women who have few dresses and who want to have their best pretty and dressy without resort to rich ma- terials or extreme effects. A church dress, the sort of thing a girl in limited circumstances might wear at the church festival, at Sunday dinner at her boarding house. or for her simple little lat home" some evening, is made of basket cloth in blue and black The close fitting bodice has little front let in of blue silk, the edges of the front being set under black soutache braid. The folded collar is of the blue and perhaps there Is a little fold of blue at the wrists. There is no reason why such a gown might not be made with a plain front under the silk, and the silk can be removed, leaving an office dress with just the two rows of sou tache for finish in front and may be the folded collar of the silk

There Is quite stir in Cincinnati over adulteration. The Ohio State Dali ry and Food commission has been car rying on an ivestigation of the adulter- ation of foods and medicines It began
 with the grocers, Goods were bought and subjected to analysis, and when proved to be adulterated the dealers were prosecuted. Vinegar was found which was a chemical composition and not the result of fermented cider or wine For spices, jellies, coffee and al- most everything else of the kind manu- factured substitutes were sold. Frauds among grocers were shown to be excess sively common. About six weeks ago the commission turned its attention to the druggists. Drug stores in all parts of the city were visited and about two hundred samples obtained for the an- alyzing chemist. His work is far from complete, but 1t has already resulted in nine arrests, and about one-thtrd Of the articles examined have been found to be. .adulterated. A liquid advertised as distilled water and sold at a high price to fill prescriptions requiring pur- ity was shown to contain enough for eign salts seriously to affect the charac- ter of medicines into which it entered.
