Women In Politics.

Ii the women are to assist the men in
politics, they must do something besides
jumping into the political arena They
must prepare themselves for the strug-
giles there. We learn from q circular is
sued by Barnard college that the School
of Political Science of Columbia univer-
sity is now open to women who are
free to take the graduate courses in po-
htlcal history, economies and sociology
Here is an opportunity for the advanc-
ing woman politicians. In the School Of
Political Science they can lay the foun-
dntions needed for the high statesman
ship which ought to characterize all
governments Thus far, there is not any
woman among the professors in the
school, but we must presume that this
deficiency will yet be supplied The
quick induction, broad reasoning, clear
analysis and generous sympathy of
womanhood ought not to be excluded
from the faculty. The ideas of man in
political science are apt to be hard and
narrow and selfish.
Tho many womon's political clubs
now i'll existence must also be of use to
woman politicians by familiarizing them
with the leading public questions of the
times.
Both Mayor Strong of this city and
Mayor Schieren of Brooklyn seem dis
posed TO favor the appointment of some
women to those public offices to which,
i'll the opinion of these two mayors, they
are adapted. Both of them seem to be-
lievo that women are better fitted for
service on school boards than for any
other branch of the municipal service,
and they have begun to follow up their
belief. which is of the nature of the old
belief that women are concerned only
with children. This may do for begin
ming, but woman's progress does not
end at the schoolhouse. If, for example,
we have n woman in New York who
would make better mayor than Will
liam l.. Strong, we doubt whether May
or Strong can prove that she should not
be elected to the Office. New York Sun.

Women In Banks.

There are 60 banks in the United
States where women are employed, and,
curiously enough, out of the whole
number all save one are either married
or are widows. Another curious feature
of this employment is that no two WON
en- are found i'll any one bank, and no
two banks where women hold positions
of any kind are located in the same city
or town. The posts filled range from
bank trustees, presidents, vice presidents
to cashiers and assistant cashiers.

THE VIRGIN OF GuADALouPE.-A
dispatch from the City of Mexico says
there is some fear lest the recent circu-
lar of Protestant missionaries attacking
tbe nonular belief in the Virgin OF
GnedaIenpe NAV arouse the inherent
fanaticism of the Indians, who-wIl
flock into the city in great Numbers IN
October during the coronation festlyl-
ties. the number estimated being from
rs 600 to 100000. Some Americans
regret the action taken by missionaries,
who. however, defend their position as
being already fully supported by emil
nent Catholics prelates of former CEN
turies, who protested against the adora-
ton of the Virgin of G~uadaioupe,
denouncing it as a gross imposture.
The belief in this apparition of the
Virgin in shared by many thousands OF
upper-class people, and there is certain
to be- deep feeling aroused when the
missionaries begin to circulate their
projected daily paper, devoted to eradi-
eating what they term a popular
superstition. Radical liberal papers
applaud warmly the proposed action OF
the missionaries, and are melting in
their course of disseminating literature
calculated to overthrow this ancient
belief.
The Virgin of Guadalupe is cherish
ed there as much as sour Lady OF
Lonrdesn in France. Miracles without
number are ascribed to her Intervention,
and there are few Catholic households
in the country without her image.
Evidently a tremendous religious con-
troversy is in preparation.

A Chin ese Proposal.

When man in China desires the
daughter of a neighbor as q wife for
his son, he writes to him as follows:
ION my knees beg you not to despise
this cold and common request. but
listen to the words of the matrimonial
agent and give your honorable daugh
ter to my slave of a son. SO that the
pair, bound by silken threads, may
have the greatest Joy. In the beauti-
full springtime I shall offer wedding
presents and give couple OF geese,
and let us hope for long and continued
fortune and look forward through end
less generations to the fulfillment OF
genuine love. May they sing OF
plenty and have every joy. On my
knees beg you to consider my pro.
posal favorabiy and throw the mirror.
like glance of your eyes on these lines. VI
To this the father of the prospective
bride replies that he will ATTEND to
the portion of his poor and poverty
stricken daughter, that she might not
be without bedclothes, cotton clothing
hairpins and earrings. Therefore il
was to be hoped that the couple would
have constant fortune"

How the Mole Tunnels.

Now place the wriggling and res
tive little creature upon the ground
on spot where the ground is not un-
reasonably hard, SO that he may have
a fair chance for disappearing, and see
what he will do. The instant he
touches the earth, down goes his nose,
feeling nervously here and there for a
place to start his drill. In about one
second he has found a suitable spot.
His nose sinks into the soil as if it were
o brad-awl, with a half boring and
half pushing motion, and in an instant
half your 'mole's head is buried from
view. Now watch sharply, or he will
be out of sight before you see how he
does it. Up comes his powerful right
foot, sliding close along the side of his
head, straight forward, edgewise, to
the end of his nose. His five-pointed
chisel cuts the earth vertically until
( it reaches as far forward as his short
reach will let it go; then, with quick
motion, he prizes the earth sidewise
from his nose, and so makes quite an
opening. Instantly the left foot does
the same thing on the other side, and
meanwhile the gimlet-pcinted nose has
gone right on boring. In five seconds,
by the watch, his body is entirely out
of sight, and only his funny little tail
can be seen. In three minutes he will
tunnel a foot, if he is at all in hurry
to get on in the world.-W. T. Horna.

The Galloways were first brought to
this country about fifteen years ago,
since which time they have made their
way steadily. Their hardness adapts
them to the ranches of the west, and
their ease of. acclimation Greats a de-
mand for them in the south. In both
places their ability to Withstand varia-
tions in temperature has made them Of
great service for crossing with native
races. Their. skins are valuable for
robes.
The Galloways are polled or horn

brownish tinge in winter; skin thick,
but soft and pliable, with long, silky
hair with soft, thick coat of wool un-

PROFITABLE COWS.

Tho Quality Is Far More Important Than
tho Quantity. &
1t is the small number of good cows,
well fed and carefully attended to, that
bring the most profit. Many farmers
would do better with half the number
Of cows and expending on them the full
amount of care. The point is to keep
only the best and push them to their
limit. To do this it is necessary to
know not only how much milk and but
ter each COW produces, but also how
much it costs to produce'it. Feeding
by guess work will not pay. Give each
cow all she will eat and then calculate
how much she turns into butter. If
you are satisfied with the result, keep
her; if not, get rid of her., Good food
has great deal to do with the end de-
sired, but it will not create the temper
ament of COW, nor make of her a
good dairy animal, any more than it
will ever make a good cow out of a
small milker. and there is no use vast
ing effort.
1t is calculated that it requires about
100000 cows to supply the demand
for milk and its products in the United
States, and that the universal use OF
the Babcock test would result in cut
ting down the number about one
third, to the great benefit of the farm.
er, who is the one injured by the
''don't know business. Keep an &C.
count with each cow, and If she does
not give you fair profit fatten her TO,
beef or sell her to some one else who is
willing to go into a losing business.
The requirements OF a good daiSy
cow are, briefly, a fair yearly produc
tion of milk and butter, minimum
amount of feed to produce giver
amount of butter, certain transmission
of milking qualities to offspring an6
gentleness and longevity. These are
the qualities for which the farmer
must look and which require his con
slant care, not only to obtain but <
retain. There is wide range between
good dairy cows and the average. sThs
average COWS in the United State,
make 130 pounds of butter per year
while the good dairy COW yields from
$50 to 400 pounds.-N. Y. World.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

AT the end of the year get rid OF
every COW that does not produce 600
pounds of butter.
WHENEVER you are trying cow that
is In milk, examine the milk and also
milk the cow yourself before buying.
TAINTED butter wilt not sell at a
profitable price. Don't try to sell it il
you have established reputation as a
butter-maker.
DoN'r try to economic in the dairy
by feeding frosted or musty food.
There is no economy in it, for the but
ter viii be injuriously affected. =, :.
WE do not hear so much now Of pedi-
gree as we used to. Not that q buyer
does not want an animal with ia good
pedigree. He does. But he must have
individual merit with it. Formerly
pedigree alone sold the cow
IN these times when the cost of pro
duction needs to be brought down as
low as possible, the time and trouble
spent in investigating cows before buy
ing them is most profitably spent. A
poor COW is dear at any price.
For his own benefit the farmer
should feed his cows upon only the
best feed, even if he takes his milk to
the creamery, for the better the whole
product the better the price and the
better able the creamery is to stand.
THE temperature needs watching ii
winter. Butter is often spoiled by an
imperfect temperature and the impe--
feet temperature sometimes results
from the impression that in cold wealth.
