manhood Yell to the coarse and brutal
methods now pursued, or will the more
repulsive features of political life be
softened or eliminated by the deft and
delicate genius of those who have so
marvelously wrought in other spheres
of life. The princely Wendell Phillips
once said, "You may build your capital
of granite and pile it as high as the
Rocky Mountains, if it is founded on
or mixed up with iniquity, the pulse of
girl will in time beat it down" 1t is
to be hoped that the gigantic mass of
modern stupidity known as American
politics, will yield to this subtle and
wondrous power. So far as our humble
Judgment goes, we believe that if Wo-
mans Suffrage means partisanship in
the old sense, which says you must
take your medicine though it gags you,
then there can be but one result, and

Tho Klondyke Laws.

The Canadian government is acting
with its accustomed and grand short
sightedness in the mining regulations
it has adopted for the Klondyke dis.
trict. While no immediate effect will
be felt upon the rush to the gold fields
of that section on account of these laws
it will not be many months before they
will serve to very materially check the
tide of immigration and turn it back
over the American border. That placer
mines equally as rich in the yellow
metal exist along the streams on the
American side of the line as those
which have been discovered on the
Canadian, no one doubts who has given
the least study to the conditions of
that country. The Canada mines hap
pened to be discovered first and conse-
vuently the rush is into that country,
but when the prospectors and specula-
tors find that they are obliged to give
up one-fifth of their gross earnings
there will be scramble into the coun-
try where the laws are more liberal and
where the government does not seek to
rob man of twenty per cent of his
earnings.
These laws of Canada will be a great
hindrance to the development Of the
country, but they will result in much
benefit to the United States as vast
territory heretofore unknown to any
white man will be explored and pros
pected by the thousands of miners who
have caught the gold fever and are anX-
ious to try their luck in the new dig
gings, but who will be deferred from
expanding any energy upon Canadian
soil by the system Of robbery institut-
ed by that government.-Sp okane
Chronicle.

A SPRY MAINE GIRL.

works Her Fathers Dairy Farm, and
When Grown VIII BE IL Doctor.
All the way from East Orrington to
Bangor the people are talking about
and praising Sarah Curran, the 16-year-
old daughter of Nick Curran, a dairy
farmer. Curran has been confined to
the house by rheumatic fever for six
weeks, and every morning Sarah has
been up at three o'clock to do the
chores. When she and her mother
have MIXED IS COWS and put them to
pasture, she eats her breakfast, and by
The time the other lnilkmen are getting
up she is on the milk cart on her way to
Bangor. When she has gone over a
good part of the city, supplying Gus
toners with milk in pint and quart
lots, she turns the horse for home, ar
irving there in time to take dinner. In
the afternoon She attends TO the farm
work and does other tasks that usually
devolve upon a man. After supper she
helps to milk the Is cows and goes to
bed early, to get good start the next
morning.
Though she does the work of man,
she is not at all mannish in her ways,
being of slight frame and very modest.
Until she left school two years ago to
help her father on the farm she was
considered the brightest pupil in her
class. Since then most OF her life has
been passed outdoors. She has driven
pair OF horses to haul corlwood to
market, taking it from the stump in the
forest 10 the dooryard Of her customers
and unloading it without rouble. She
says that When she reaches IS years OF
age-by wl.ich time her father ought
10 be wcil-to-do-shc is going away to
schoc! and Jal;e n course in some col
lege that grants equal privileges to
both sexes. After getting educated
she proposes to become doctor.

NO MORE THORNS.


Tho limit of improvement is not
found i'll producing fruits Of great size,
beauty ard sweetness There arc other
desirable qualities that the horticulture
list is anxious to obtain, and toward
this end he is deyotiuR his energies
Ono OF the most noticeable trends of the
science Of fruit culture is toward the
elimination Of undesirable organs The
thulus of some of the citrus fruit trees
and the pricilcs Of such small berry
bushes us the goosobcrry, blackberry
and raspberry are protubcrnccs that
have outlivcd their usefulness and are
highly unpleasant. They not only pune
ture the ripening fruits, but they often
mako harvesting exceedingly inconven-
lent. Gardeners have long wished to
do away with these thorns and prickles
but it is only comparatively recently
that systematic efforts have been made
to eliminate them.
Tho thorns are conspicuous organs of
our cultivated plants that have ceased
to be of any value, for their original
purpose of protecting the plants from
animals has NJ force today in the gar
dens and fields They should have been
exterminated long ago Through the
careful selection of plants that happen
to be thornless, stocks are obtained for
new race OF thornless plants. Others
are noted for the few thoins that grow
on them, and by judioious selection of
seeds and gratis from these the same
work is continued Already gardeners
have cultivated raspberry and blackber-
ry canes that are entirely thornless, and
by grating improved varieties on these
the desired end will soon be reached.

AN ENGAGEMENT


Expected OF Both Families.
The first duty of the groom elect is to
obtain tho consent of his future BRIDES
parents.
1t is correct to see the parents, not to
write to them, unless the latter course
is tho only one possible to take. When
consent is given, the engagement is
looked upon as settled thing, and the
next thing is to make it known.
This should be done in the very first
instance by the bridegroom expectant,
who announces it to his family. They
should, without delay, call upon his
fiancee and her people, or, if the dis
lance prohibits this they should at once
pleasure at the news and assuring her
of welcome among them.
These calls should be returned or the
letters answered with promptitude, and
now the general public is informed of
the event.
The bridegroom elects first care
should be to provide the engagement
ring. 1t is usual to let the brides taste
select it, and he may either ascertain
her preferences before buying it or send
a tray from the jewelers. for her to Sc
lect from.
Friends and acquaintances on hear
ing Of the engagement should at once
send their congratulations and good
wishes. This may either be done by
calling in person to deliver them or by
writing. Calls of congratulation should
DO returned and letters answered. a
few words Of cordial thanks are all that
are required.
During an engagement some Of the
stricter rules of chaperonage are re-
Taxed. Considerable people, where they
dine out, will often try to send them in
to dinner together, but this is point
which can never be looked upon as a
right, since precedence and convenience
have to be considered
When an engagement is broken OF,
the outside public should at once he IN
formed of the fact. If there has been q
a newspaper announcement, another
should now intimate that the marriage
previously arranged will not take place
All wedding presents which may have
been received must be sent back. Any
presents or letters received by one OF tho
flances from the other must be returned
and the engagement ring should Always
DO returned without delay
Any hesitation about these matters
would be in the worst possible taste
