seat on the Board, not because there
are women to represent, but because
woman is as much qualified by
mental faculties and by education,
to exercise executive powers, as
man is.
1t is just i'll this matter of educa-
ton, that woman excels Sixty
years ago, even fifty years ago, wo-
men were, as a rule, very poorly
educated. There were brilliant ex-
ceptions, but they were exceptions
which proved the rule. Now, all
is changed. In many cases, the
wife is more highly educated than
the husband, and her mind has been
trained to think and keep her emo
tional side under control. Girls
go through exactly the same men
tai training that boys go through,
and prove as apt, and frequently
more apt and more brilliant than
boys are. Girls take more advan-
tage of their opportunities than the
average of boys, and as rule they
stay at school longer.
1t has been found, that women
readily adapt themselves to work,
that they are trustworthy, painstak
ing, and often capable of striking
out in new and original lines. A
woman who is a good book keeper,
who manages a business success
fully, who is an efficient physician,
or lawyers assistant, is far more
capable Of giving an intelligent
vote, and is more interested in see
ing that the government of the
country is carried on on intelligent
and liberal lines, than a very large
percentage of those, who now hold
votes, and think themselves super
ior to the more intellectual non vo-
ter.
1t rests with woman herself to
strike for legislative power. There
are very many here, who sympha-
thize with such a movement and
who would be ready to make a
strong campaign in the next legis-
lature for female franchise. With
the example of some OF the States
and the colony of New Zealand be-
fore us, we should be ready to shew
that this little country, though
small, is in the van of Social and
Economic progress, and in no way
can it shew its upward tendency
better than by breaking through
the letters of prejudice and ignor-
ance and elevate woman from the
position of tender nursing and a
petted child, to that of true equality
with man, thinking with him, work
ing with him, hoping with him and
leading him towards the eventual
elevation of the whole human race.

devices in the eye of the law, and he
cannot see any more harm in playing
them than there is in taking whirl at
the church grab bag or the elite pro-

no crime within itself If any state
desires to make it crime they must
pass law covering the case. And slot
machines are not mentioned in the Mis-

That consumption can be Cured is the
hope once more held out by Prof. Rob-
ert Koch, a German scientist whose
name was on every tongue seven years
ago. KOch's 'tuberculin," which was
then tested, with unfavorable results,
was a preparation of the bacilli of tu-
berculosig. The present treatment also
consists of hypodermic injections of
these bacdlli, but with this difference,
that the hacilli have been broken up by
mechanical means in order to facilitate
their absorption. Doctor Koch does
not promise that the new tuberculin
would be useful when the malady had
reached an advanced stage. He does
affirm that "a large number of suitable
patients have been cured by it. 1t is
noticeable that European scientists
treat this claim with great respect-a
certain indication that, in their view.
Doctor Koch's twenty years study Of
tuberculosis may at any time be
crowned with full success.

The Last BugIe-CaII.

The St Louis Globe-Democrat has
discovered that the last summons to
battle in the civil war was bugle call
to charge, given by Nathaniel Sisson
on the field Of Appomattox.
Mr. Sisson enlisted when the war
broke out, and at its close was a bugler
under Custer. His regi1aent was in
the saddle before day on the even+ful
eighth day of April, and began to Skin
mish with the enemy. An hour later
they reached the position from which
the memorable call to charge was
blown.
The next moment two of General
Gordon's aids rode out in advance of
the column. One of them carried a
towel fastened to a musket. General
Gordon stated afterward that the towel
was soiled and ragged; but, old and
torn as it was, it carried a message Of
peace to the whole country.
General Custer, seeing this flag of
truce, halted his charging column
and rode alone to the tent of the Con-
federate general. When he came out
he said to General Kapehart, uncover
ing his head, General Lee is treating
for capitulation.
The war was over.
The men nearest to him caught the
quiet words and burst into a frenzied
cheer. They were men who had fought
bravely, but who thanked God now
that the war was ended. The cheer
swept down the valley, and the hills
shook with the shout-which meant
peace.
Let us hope that Nathaniel Sisson's
bugle call to battle on that April morn
ing was the last that shall ever sum-
mon brother to charge against brother
in this land of ours.
