1t is important to arouse the people
of the State to Il full sense of the dam
ger that threatens them. The course,
pursued under the personal supervis-
ion, as shown above. of Mr. Mudd in
controlling politics in Prince Georges
county and riding rough-shod over the
rights of all who dare oppose him, is
absolutcl Y alarming in its tendency.
1t was practical illustration of cor

people, and afforded trightful exam

the young and instigatc the ignorant
and depravcd to further acts Of vio-
lence. One prony Submitted to, mriics
the nfict,on Of nnoihr.
Such pernicious practices, dangerous
everywhere, are particularly so in
Southern Maryland where there are
many negroes Of vicious propensities,
and where an irresponsible class Ofcol-
ored violators of the law already crowd
the jails. Their political supremacy
is made t,ls'rlhlr oa'y 10y the influence
of 4 few of the more res ,,tctahIt and
intelligent of the race and Of some of
their prudent and conscientious white
leaders. Cultivating their depraved
instincts by such unlawful practices
is like arming them with torch
1t is this that makes many respectable
Republicans in Prince Georges to-day
hang their heads in shame for their
party and openly CONFESS the humlia-
tion that has been brought upon it.
Will not the intelligent and con SER
vative people of the State realize the
danger of the situation. relegatc
Mr.. Mudd to the rear and down for
ever the principles he typities and the
methods he pursues? Rctribution
would speedily come to the arch con-
spirator and his conttlerates among
any constituency except the blind and
deludld one which he has the fortune
to represent. Respectable citizens of
all parties and of both races may be-
come helpless "Mudd methods are
not checked, and they appeal to the
honest and conservative citizenship of
Maryland to right tier wrongs, and
in rightin2 their wrongs to furnish the
antidote to the poison that is per-
meating the whole State. Wellington
has been supplanted, but the power
now behind the throne is infinitely
worse than Wellington. Down with

sacrifice, to giving ones life to save
the most dear to us, women stand al
most alone. Whether to suck pois-
oned would, or to intervene and re-
ceive the assassins dagger, or to nurse
the wounded in the midst of battle, or
to watch by the couch of pcstilence and
death, or to commit suicide to save
their own and their husbands honour,
they have acted without parallel on
the part of men. Woman's love is
stronger than her fears, and there is
no sacrifice which she will not cheer
fully make for him who sways her
heart. What she does by impulse man
feebly tries to do by calculation.
But it is in moral courage that wo-
man shines. just as the greater
strength and training Of man makes
him physically superior, SO the moral
strength and traiuing of woman makes
him morally her inferior. In loyalty,
truthfulness, chastity, fidelity, pity,
sobriety, honesty, and general perse
verance in well.doing, she is immeas-
erably above him. This has been no.
ticed by great writer's in every age,
and it would not be difficult to discov-
er why she is so much mans moral
superior. Vaudeville thought it was
because her brain was more accurately
balanced. Me thinks, however. that it
is largely owing to 4 higher standard
of moral conduct having been constant
ly damanded from her from rcmotest
times. But she must insist up)a fur

look to his morals, that sexual harmo-
ny may result.

COLOR OF SOAP BUBBLES.

The extreme thinness of the bubble
is indeed wonderful. 1t is estimated
that the film in some places is Cnly one
three-millionths of an inch in thickness.
Probably few OF us can conceive Of
such thinncss. Let me express it in
another way. The Old and the New
Testament contain some three millions
of letters. Now, one thrce-millionths
is such part of an inch as the first
letter of the Bible is part of tie sum
of all of its letters.
The bubble, however, is not of equal
thickness at all points, and it is for
this reason that it has the var )us col
ors For instance, wherever the film
is orange-red it measures about three
one-millionths of an inch; where it is
blue, eighty one-millionths of inch, and
at point where lemon-yellow is pro:ni-
nent, about twenty -mllionths of
an inch. Perhaps YOU wonder why
the colorS change from on, part of the
soap-bubblc to another. This is be-
cause the film OF the soap-bubblc evap-
crates and grows thinner, but unequal
" so at different portions. \ greenlsh

Il ,,f
such 4 point the film is ready to give

! You will be glad to know the source
of the beautiful colors. Every one is
delighted with them, even if not inter
cstcd by the explanation OF their ori-
GIN. We may say that they come from
the light. Light gives color to all OIL
jectS. but not exactly rs it does to the
solp-bubhlr. White light from the
sun can he broken into seven colors
which we have seen in the rainbow.
In that instance the rain-drops separate

looking through glass pendant from
a hanging lamp. When the light
reaches the surface of the Soap-bubble
part is reflected from it and we see
images on its surface as if it We're Il
curved mirror. Another portion of
the light, however, enters the film and
is separated so that Il part of the seven
colors are thrown into the bubble, and
we can see them ut various portions of
the opposite surface. Another part of
the light, after being broken by the
film, is reflected by its inner surface
| back to our eyes, 50 that we see colors
at the point where the light enters.-

FADS IN Nj EDICINE.

There are fads in medicine as in

ground against all competition, and its

Hoods Sarsaparilla rests upon the

tcourge Of the world offensive, painful,

Outward applications do not cure, they

Enollients may palliste, they cannot

way ont, and that Is to eliminate the

There Is one remedy that can effect this,
and It Is the only one that, 80 far as we
Know, has almost invariably succeeded
even where the system has been poisoned
by long years OF faint, and the ravages to
ot repaired are tremendous. That remedy
Is Hoods Sarssparilla. Read this:
