SPECIAL coEEEsroSDENcEl
Leap Wear Decision.

The tail bench Of the supreme Judi
eial court, m an opinion filed, declares
an important question of womans
rights, holding that ma an actlon
brought by n married woman to re-
cover damages for personal injury,
the impairment uf her capacity to per-
form labor can be considered ne an
element OF damages. The case was
that Of Lydia ". Harmon vs. the Old
Colony railroad company, and was an
action tu recover Tor injuries 10 the
plaintiff sustained while passenger
in one of the defendants ears, The
plalntih was Il married woman engaged
IN keeping a restaurant, and her nus
band also brought suit 81 recover dam
ages for the loss OF the company.
service and care of his wife. In the
SUIT OF the husband there was "a
verdict IN his favor, winch Was salts
fed; subsequently the suit OF the
wife was tried, and she was asked
what was the market value of her ser
vices at the time Of the accident. The
court excluded this evidence, and
plaintiff excepted. In the opinion of
the supreme court. which Is written
by Judge Allen, the statutes relative
to married women doing business on
their own account. aud relating to the
property of married women, are re-
viewed, after which the court says:
by virtue 81 this legislation, a
married woman becomes M the view
of the law a distinct and Independent
person from her husband, not only in
respect OF her right to own property,
but also IN respect to her right to use
her time Tor the purpose of earning
money ON her sole and separate
account. She may perform labor,
and il entitled to her wages or earn
ings. If she complies with the statu
tory requirement as To recording ii
certificate, she may carry on any
trade or business on her sole and
separate account and take the profits,
If profits there are. as her separate
property. Her right to On
ter into contracts, to earn money,
to engage IN performing labor
or service, - enter INTO trade on her
own account. is inconsistent with the
view that her capacity to labor be-
longs exclusively to her husband. He
can appropriate neither her earnings
or her time. Her right to employ her
time Tor earning money on her own
account is rs complete as his, subject

Because be had palpitation OF the
heart. Mr.. 4. J. Allen determineito
quit smoking. He thought the To-
baeco habit vas the cause Of his
trouble. but when be ceased smoking
the puisation- Of the heart were
more violent than ever. Mr.. Allen Is
registered chemist OF Lynn, Mass,
and at second thought he concluded
that. if tobacco wasn't the cause, 1t
must be acute dyspepsia. His
knowledge Of chemistry naturally
prompted him to take Ripans
Tabules. well knowing their efficacy
IN disorders Of the stomach, liver
aud bowels. Quick relief followed,
and now there is no more distress 10
the region OF his heart, But the re-
markabie part Of Nr Aliens exper-
renee follows: He decided to forego
smoking anyhow, and discovered
that Ripans Tabules not only salts
fed the longing for tobacco. which
al smokers are familiar with, but AZ
flrs, he actually looked forward with
pleasure TO the three periods each
day when he took the Tabules. Mr..
Alien no longer smokes, and has no
desire 10. nor does ne take the
Tahules. He i a well man. and does
not need medicine Of any kind. Mr..
Allen believes Ripans Tabuies will
prove a powerful aid to any man who
desires 10 abandon the tobacco
habit.
