When young girls of America consider
tho difficulties and obstacles which the
customs and habits of other countries
throw i'll the way of their young girls,
they may be thankful they are Americans.
Take the Danish girl, for instance. She
enters society very young. Between her
fourteenth and sixteenth year she is con-
flrmed, and this confirmation is compul-
sorry and really her debut into society.
All her relatives and friends give her pres
ents ut this time and she Is endowed with
small library and garden OF flowers.
If she is unmarried ut the age of 20, she Is
dropped from the list Of young people and
left out Of all their parties and amuse-
ments, SO there Is nothing left for her to
do but to become emancipated and follow
any pursuit for which she feels inclined.
She smokes like tho men, and with them,
too, is thoroughly independent. - tx

Your Rings.

1t is never wise to wet rings that have
stones in them. OF course all rings need
to be cleaned from time to time, and dia-
monds, rubies, emeralds and sapphires
will stand washing with soap. Turquoises
and seed pearls will change color il sub
jected to any such treatment. Tho ma
jority of pearl rings have not the full,
round, perfect pearl which alone will stand
wetting Almost all pearls have at least
tiny pin prick somewhere on their sur
face, and this, like a spot Of decay in a
tooth, will admit substances which will
damage them. 1t is therefore usual to
take off ones rings when washing the
hands. This is how many valuable jewels
are lost. An old fashioned but excellent
preventive Of forgetfulness on such occa-
sions is to put the ring into your mouth,
or at least between your lips. Then you
will remember to slip it on your finger aft
or drying your hands.

cold Mt ErinNie Creek

The best way TO get there is over the
Santa Fe Route. The fabul9nsly rich
gold mining district of CripIro Greek,
Colo, is attracting hundreds of people.
By spring the rush bids fair to be enor-
nous. That there is an abundance OF
gold there is demonstrated beyond doubt.
Fortunes are being rapidly made.
To reach Cripple Creek, take the Santa

direct to the camp. Through Pullman

fraught with danger
and distress. 1t is perfectly natural
function, and should be performed in a
natural way without undue suffering.
Nature never intended that women
should be tortured when doing the one
thing which makes them wholly wo-
manly. The peryersion of natures laws
has brought this suffering about, and a
return to right living will stop it.
Nine out of ten women are troubled
more or less by weakness and diseases
peculiar to their sex. 1t is so because
they do not take proper care Of them
selves--because they neglect little ills
and little precautions. A woman i'll per-
fectly hearty health goes through her
time of trial with comparative ease. The
thing to do then, is to make all expec-
tant mothers healthy - to strengthen
them generally and locally. The medi.

Sioux City Journal, 10: The decision
the other day Of an Ohio court to the
effect that a railroad company has no
right to contisecate a mileage ticket
oundl 10 the hands OF another than the
one to whom the company sold it may
prove a serious obstacle in the syste-
matte effort which the railroad COM
panles are making to limit narrowly the
use OF mileage tickets. The court init
mated that the company, while it might
refuse to carry d third party on such a
ticket, bad absolutely no right to touch
or To take IT, since the title and owner.
ship of it passed to the purchaser when
he paid his money for it; hs still owned
1t, and he might use It, although the
company might refuse to accept 1t from
the hands Of any other person. This will
strike most people as common sense,
especially as the general rule is that
what one may buy be may again sell.
The decision, however, does not 90 10
this extent, but only holds that Il mile
aye ticket belongs to the man who buys
1t aud that the company has no right o
II whatever alter 1t has sold it.. While it
may be true technically that the offer of
mileage tickets is general and open to all
who comply with the con ditlons, still
practically the conditions are such that
only a fraction OF the travelling public
can or will comply with them, and the
fraction which can comply with them is
not composed OF those who most need
concessions. In South Dakota the
average passenger is forced, under the
terms which the mileage tickets are
offered by the companies, to pay 4 cents
q mile, while those who are more for
tunate by the use Of such tickets can
travel for 2 cents q mile. East Of the
Missouri river the discrimination is not
80 great, but it is still very great. The
only possible condition on which the
ticket broker can do business is that
he save money for the public. This is
exactly what he does, and 80 long as he
does this it will be mighty hard for the
