statistics show That the Wise Women
Marry Late.


The strides which the movement
among American women to secure for
themselves an independent livelihood
has made during the last two or three
decades are simply astounding Moth
ing can Illustrate this better than the
following figures. which have reference
to the number OF women In the United
States In each profession In 1880. the
figures In brackets being the CORE
spending figures for 1870:
In 1890 there were 4.45j female doe

From this Il becomes evident that
women who have frequonted universe

later than others. II Is perhaps a nat

Hot Ale Heating Il Now an Important
Considerafion-some Practical suE-

(C0pyughled l'W.l
When a man starts out to build n
house. after having settled the ques-
tion Of location, size. price and gener-
al style, the most important matter
that remains TO be decided is the
method Of heating. The larger pro-
portion Of dwellings make nee OF the
air system, and, all things considered,
there is none that is more satisfactory.
Hot air furnaces offer very convenient
means OF communicating warmth to a
dwelling OF almost any Dimensions
is special advantage being that II It
Is properly managed It constantly
brings into the house large body OF
fresh air, and so contrib utes most ma
terially TO the ventilation Of the build
ing.
This is elected by furnace placed
IN the lover portion OF tho house,
which being duly provided with anes
AMI registers, heats aud distributes
through all parts OF the establish
ment a quantity OF fresh air in pro-
portion 10 the dimensions and capac'
ity OF the air chamber in which Il IS
placed. A fundamental point OF this
syiiem is the supply OF pure air to
this air chamber, which should be
provided by duct or air passage
from that side OF the house on which
the air is likely 90 be the most pure.
But the objections cited against stoves
when ma 10 vita thin plates OF metal

from becoming red hot apply with
equal force TO a vast majority OF hot
air furnaces now In use. Air deliv'
cred from n furnace should never ex'

degrees Fahrenheit, where the heat

Tho principle 20 be attended TO in
construction Of all hot air furnaces Is
60 generate and communicate the
greatest amoant OF heat with given
quantity OF fuel. without producing
any change in the breathing property
OF the ar. A common fault is that
the water pan Is allowed TO become
empty, so that the heated air has that
dry and siuiIy quality OF which many
people Justly complain. But with
water constantly cooperating in the
furnace, with cold air drawn from out
doors, and with such an arrangement
OF pipes thai every room viii receive
its due proportion Of heat, there Is no
system more satisfactory Tor ordinary

Gold 1. tho True Basis.

Ex-President Harrison in Ladies'
Home Journal: II the holder of Unit
ed States note cannot get gold at par
for 1t he win pay a premium for the
gold he must have to meet a gold obli-
CATION. A premium on gold would at
once drive gold out of circulation. for
a coin that is at a premium cannot be
used in trade. No one is bound to pay
gold TO the government for any tax or
other debt due to 1t. So that practically
the situation is this: The treasury holds
itself bound to give gold to every one
presenting a United States note, and
has no way OF compelling any one to
pay gold to it Such gold as 1t gets
comes from persons who choose to take
paper money for gold deposited in the
minis or assay officers. or to pay in gold
coins some government tax. Formerly
all duties upon imports vera payable
only in gold. Now, when the gold re-
serve gets low, it can only be restored
by the sale OF bonds. under the powers
given to the secretary in the legislation
relating to the resumption OF specie
payments.

A Democrat ON IRE. .o,n.r,.

The following statement Is credited
to "a very prominent southern demo-
erat, whose name is not given:
As party we favor the widest pos.
sible trade. We want to push our pro
ducts into all the markets OF the world.
and the only thing which stands in the
way Of our so doing Is the high price OF
our labor. Everything that we make
has come down in price. But while
everything else has declined in cost.
our labor stu sticks at the old prices,
and there doesn't seem to be any way
to bring labor down except through
some sort of a protraeied revolution.
Free silver, however, would solve the
question IN an hour. II wouldn't ad-
vance the price of any kind of labor,
becanse all labor is now at imitation
prices, and just as high as it would be
under any conditions. But II free silver
were adopted. We would pay labor in
50-eent dollars. That would cut labor
in two at once. thus fetching It down to
the plane of everything else. This ae-
complished. we would be In shape to
successfully compete with England or
any other country for the markets Of
the world. Therefore l can't see why
our party does not at once and entirely
endorse free silver. because by so doing
we should establish our commercial SUI
premacy among the nations OF the
earth.
