The most gratifying vote in the
Senate since the force bill died was
the vote Of 81 to % which killed
the Infamous Torrey bill and sub
stituted for it Senator Nelson's mild
honest, humane, and decent hank.
rupt act. Senator Nelson's bill is
mainly a voluntary bankrupt act.
It has one section, however, the
sixteenth, which provides for in
voluntary bankruptcy in case OF
bankers, brokers, merchants, ira
ders, and manufacturers, but there
can be no involuntary bankruptcy
in any case under the bill unless
the bankrupt, within four months
preceding the filing of, the petition,
shall have conveyed away bis pro,
perty, with the actual and fraudn-
lent intent to defraud his creditors.
In that case proceedings may lie
taken against him, but he is not
condemned without a hearing, nor
is there any provision for taking
his property away from him until
he il adjudged bankrupt.
We believe the bill is and will he
as satisfactory as any bankrupt act
could he. The defeat Of the Torrey
bill again illustrates the wisdom Of
free debate in the Senate. II one
man power had been established in
the Senate, as it is in the House,

House last Winter bristling with

A GIRLS LIFE IN MEXICO.
She Haas Considerable Freedom But
1t ta Of the Right Kind.

1t is Of the Right Kind.
Mexican home life is unique; it
differs very essentially from the do
mestic life of the Anglo-Saxon race,
fnr it is founded on respect for par
ents. The influence of the Catholic
church is powerful in maintaining
u high grade Of family behavior.
There il Il sweetness and charm
about a well-ordered Mexican home
which Is II revelation to Northern
people, who have imbibed false
idea Of matters here. The women
OF the best Mexican families are
naturally of a gentle disposition,
but they command obedience and
rarely spoil their sons. whom they
idolize. There are exceptions, but
they are not enough to break down
the general social discipline. AS
for the girls, no reputable Mexican
father or mother would allow for a
II moment the thought of permit
ting u girl of any age to he on the
streets after dark unless accompa
MED by an older person, trusted
servant or an elder brother. So,
even among girls of the humber
class, there is no street strolling in
the evening. They may in warm
weather, go to the alameda, or pub
lie park, where there is band con-
cert, hut always under escort. They
may go to tertulia, or evening
party, but with some competent
person. They may dance, mildly
tiirt. on such occasions, but they
are always under the watthful eye.
of relative. There is plenty Of
proper freedom for young girls and
II larger liberty in the cities than
formerly, but they are not allowed
10 run about without an escort and
II very careful eye is kept upon them
hy parents and relatives, even to
distant male cousins.
Such II thing as young girl or
young woman of any character or
family being upon the street at
night alone and unattended is un-
known.
Your daughter goes to visit a
friend in the afternoon and stays to
tea; then the gentleman and lady
Of the house, the gentleman alone,
or an old servant brings her home.
So the streets of this big town are
never the scene of foolish, flighty
girls being followed and "picked
up" hy strangers. AS for men who
insult young girls and women, the
remedy is usually sudden and
fatal one. In milder cases the news
papers give minute descriptions of
the "satyr" who has insulted a lady,
and the public is asked to take
warming. One fellow who, in an in
terror city, made an insulting re-
mark about u lady standing at a
window, was conducted to the ala
media and in view Of the chief part
of the towns best society was held
down on u stone bench and caned
until he yelled for mercy, and was
then ordered out of town on the
next train. He went.
In another city male teacher,
who was "too fresh" in his conduct
toward young girl pupils, was wait
ed on by q deputation Of gentlemen
and asked to favor the city by his
permanent absence. He, too, went.
The etiquette regarding the pro-
lection of women from molestatioh
and insult is such as prevails in the
Southern States Of the American
union. There is no fooling on. the
streets, in the theaterS and public
nlanas with resnectahle women.

Wounded" goes with the medicine
chest. 1t consists of three little vol
umes. One is devoted to bicycle acct
dents, possible and probable, and how
to get the patient in shape to reach
home with the aid of an ambulance.
The second is taken up with drowning
demonstrations and mountain accidents,
which are both quite different from
bicycle falls. The last is quiet talk
about maladies and a hint for their
diagnosis. The first symptoms of
measles-that common complaint in
every summer hotel where children
are found-and the initial perform
ances of mumps, whooping cough and
chicken7pox are all set forth; so that
the man or woman who catches these
from the fiaxen-haired angel of the
house may not die thousand deaths
from fright before realizing that he or
she is afflicted merely with chicken
pox instead of some dread scourge. "The
best thing to do" is the title of the con-
Guiding chapters in each book.
The bicycle medicine girl-and she
is legion-has straps fastened to her
box, which she attaches to the wheel,
tightening it as much as possible first.
Very small medicine chests that will
go in the toolbox come for bicyclists.
For camping out there are large, square
medicine boxes, very complete and very
ornamental; and for an ocean voyage
or a cruise upon yacht there is a
medicine chest with a distinct set of
remedies.
1t is very attractive fad, and one
that has a useful end, not always to
be discovered in the summer fad

Medical Uses of salads.

Each of the various salads possesses a
medical property of its own, thus af-
fording possibility of absorbing a
medicine, and, at the same time, a
dainty article of food. For example,
lettuce contains a well-known narcotic
principle, opium, and may, therefore,
be taken for insomnia. Chicory has lax
atiye properties. Watercress is a tonic,
excitant and purifier. Celery a stimu-
liant, will do good to the depressed.
Whatever faith one may have in these
marvellous properties, it is easy
enough to prove them. The trial can
be repeated daily without danger, and
with pleasure to the palate.

THE MEDICINE FAD.
Latest Whim of the Summer Girl Is
a COmInenlabIe One.

Latest Whim of the Summer Girl Is
CommendabIe One.
Not the least fetching fad of the
summer girl is her medicine chest.
The large shops that cater to fads are
showing handsome leather boxes in
tan, green or brown about six by ten
inches square containing from eight
to dozen clear-cut bottles with ground
glass shoppers. Over the ground glass
stopper is a silver screw top. The box
fastens with leather straps, and when
closed las very professional look.
Inside the cover of the box there are
small straps in which are slipped a
pair of surgeons scissors with a fiat
head on one point, so that the scissors
can be slipped under bandage with
out piercing the patient. Two rolls of
surgeons bandagcs ready for use, a
pair Of tiny steel forceps and small
lance complete the surgical tools.
This is the kit" of the summer girl
who has the medicine fad; and all who
come in contact with her claim for her
the palm of cleverness over all the
other summer girls with their respec-
tive fads.
The medicine bottles in the box have
distinct aim in the preservation of
health. The box holds dozen bottles
in all. In the first row there are trav-
cling remedies, camphor, lavender wa
ter and aromatic spirits of ammonia,
the first for a headache, the second for
refreshing tired nerves and the third
for faintness. In the second row there
are simple remedies for common ills,
toothache drops, phenacetine and filed
prescriptions from home physicians.
The third row is devoted to summer
ills, Paregoric, hot drops and Jamaica

swept country below him. He was sur
prised to find the fire so fierce, and, as
he watched, Tim saw that the red
tongues were creeping toward little
log cabin in which lived two old and
helpless women, the ODER sisters, and
their blind and crippled brother, who
is one of the Oldest men over on the
other side. The lad realized that the
house was long way from any other
farmhouse and knew that the people in
the humble cot would find themselves
powerless if they were left in the cabin
until the fire got to their home. With
out thinking of how much suffering 1t
meant to his poor, aching limbs, Tim
started down the rugged hillside on his
perilous journey of heroism. He had a
race with the fire, and twice fell from
exhaustion and almost despaired of
saving the old folks. But his indomit-
able courage never tagged and he kept
going. he reached the old homestead
just as the prairie fire was attacking the
old frame crib.
He hurried into the house and in
formed the old and thoroughly fright
ened people Of their danger. 1t only
took him a few minutes to hitch the
horse to the sled, and the old man was
helped on TO this. The four drove on to
shelter at the nearest neighbours, leav-
ing the fire to do its worst.
