WONDER if some of those wise
Solons of the House would like for the
reasons to be given why they voted
against an effective capitol bill, as

Why This Unjust Discrimination?

Although the Legislature, just at its
close last evening. grudginglv made 4
small loan f. he State To float the
capitol warrants, the following COM
mcntS, written when the House had
rejected reasonable proposition with
Il hurrah, arr still Is applicable as
then. The mragrc appropriation Is
better than none, and i Il recognition
al the claim that our people had some
rights under the State government.
The senate restored to House Bill G20
the provision for a guaranty OF inter
est at five per cent. on 100000, and
appropriating $4,000 to pay it until
such time a. land sales would enable
the fund from that source to reim-
burse the State, and the amend
mrnt when reported to the House at
ID +. NJ, WAS Immediately laid on the
table. A committee OF conference was,
however, named, which recommended
that the State guarantee four per cent.
on $250,00o, leaving the appropriation
the same, the cost OF the building
likewise remaining the same-$500,-
600. The report was adopted. 1t is
believed that this amount will enable
the State to begin work on the super
structure and place it in such an adj
vanced state that the next Legislature
will complete it, if. indeed, the capitol
fund, through returned prosperity, is
not able to take care Of itself before
that time. 49,,

A COLONY of SO men have sailed
from San Francisco for the Adamless
Eden islands in the south seas. They
are looking for dusky wives and an
easy life. Some time ago it was an
nounCcd that there were on one of
these groups colony of several hum
dred women, living almost without
male companionship, the men having
been killed off by desperate warfare.
1t was likewise reported that these
islands were wonderfully productive of
all the necessities of life and that the
women were well fixed" with regard
to all all minor creature comforts, and
an intimation was given that nothing
would be likely to please the dusky
maidens more than an immigration of
of several hundred eligible men to
their ocean-bound kingdom. In these
days of privation, it is not difficult to
find men ready for almost any venture,
and it is by no means surprising that
the expedition found immediate favor
and has resulted in the departure of a
ship-load of resolute men to carry the
ramparts of the Amazonian citadel.
The outcome of the expedition will be
awaited with considerable interest.

WHISKY AND JURIES.
How a Little Bottle Decided Stubborn
Case.


Whisky has been made to bear the
odium Of a good many crimes and has
been the cause of a great many evils,
and while lawyers, though very often
partial to it, have been fond of painting
it's bad effects to either secure or Ward
off the full force of the law, very few
have any idea of the extent to which
whisky has figured in jury trials. 1t de-
velops that whisky has formed most
potent factor in the juryrooms and big
damages in some cases, and the vagarles
of the jury in others, may be ascribed to
alcohol. There are men i'll milwaukee,
who did service on juries nearly thirty
years ago, shortly after the war. AT
the noon recess in the United States
court, while the personal injury suit OF
Frank McLain against the steamer Es~
canada was being tried the conversation
turned upon the probable result OF the
trial and the amount OF damages to pc
with the plaintiff. And then the part
that whisky has played with juries
came out. One Of the expert
enced gentlemen present told how he
was once locked up at night as juror
in a suit in which a railroad corporation
was the defendant. 1t was in the days
of the old courthouse. When the jurors
came to a ballot nine were for the de-
PENDANT and three for the plaintiff. The
gentleman who told the story was one
of those who stood for the plaintiff.
Then the fight began. The three stood
firm and after a while the jurors began
to look about for some means Of amusing
themselves until one SIDE or the other
began to weaken. The three jurors
found string enough among them to low
er bottle from one of the windows and
it went down where it was visible from
the window of saloon that was located
near the courthouse at that time. The
bottle attracted the attention of the sa-
loonkeeper and he looked out. He found
note stuck in the mouth Of the bottle,
written by a patron of his, and it was
not long before the bottle was journey
ing skyward, full of whisky. The other
nine jurors knew nothing of what was
going on at the window and they did
not find out, but armed with the bottle
of whisky the three jurors held out I'M
til near morning, when the nine began
to weaken; before the sun came up
twelve men, "good and true" had cast
their ballots in the plaintiffs favor and
had agreed upon the amount of dam
| ages. Instances were related where
compromises were effected not only in
order to reach an agreement, but to es-
cape confinement in the jury room over
night.-Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin.

STOP, WOMENI

4

And Consider the A11-Im portant.Fac
That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you
are confiding your private ills to i
woman-a woman whose experience IN
treating Woman'S diseases is greater
than that of any living physician-male
or female.
You can talk freely to woman when
it is revolving to relate your private
troubles to a man; besides, a man does
not understand-simply because he is
man.
Many women suffer in silence and
drift along from bad to worse, knowing
full well that they ought to have imme-
date assistance, but natural modesty
impels them to shrink from exposing
themselves to the questions and proba-
bly, examinations Of even their family
physician 1t is unnecessary. Without
money or price you can consult wom-
an whose knowledge from actual expe-
rience is greater than any local physi-
clan in the world The following invi-
tation is freely offered; accept it in the
same spirit:
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation.
Women suffering from any form Of
female weakness are invited to prompt
ly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women
only. A woman can freely talk of her
private illness to a woman; thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkhapa and the women
of America which has never been
broken.
Out Of the vast volume Of experience
which she has to draw from, it is more
than possible that she has gained the
very knowledge that will help your
case. She asks nothing in return ex-
cept your good will, and her advice has
relieved thousands. Surely, any WON
an, rich or poor, is very foolish if she
does not take advantage Of this gener-
Gus offer of assistance.-Lydia E. Pink

SIGNS OF ANCIENT ORIGIN.
A Custom Which Has Survived for Two
Thousand Years.


Thousand Years.
There must be considerable vitality
in custom which has survived for
beginning of the Christian era, sym
bolic signs were adopted in Rome and
other Italian cities to distinguish the
various crafts and trades; for, when the
art of reading was by no means general,
an emblem above a booth was a much
better advertisement than name.
Thus, discoveries at Pompeii have re-
vealed bas-reliefs of mule in a sec
ton of a mill, on the wall Of a bake
house, and of a goat on the front of q
dairy; while q shoemaker of that olden
time made an artistic bid for custom by
a floating Cupid, who with one hand
gaily balanced half-poot on his curly
pate, and with the other waved it's
fellow in the air. Two slaves support
ing an amphora on a pole across their
shoulders delightfully."- indicated the mart
of wine merchant.
The picturesque square swinging sign
board was the Outgrowth of the symbol
developed by civilization; and this -four
ished in it's greatest glory during the
Middle ages of merry England, when
hall and hostelry alike were made inter-
esting and beautiful by carving, forging
and thinning, and crests and armorial
days Of feudalism.
At first these, for the most part, bore
heraldc and emblematic devices of ami
mails, birds, fish and flowers, Or figures
of a religious character, as saints and
martyrs, and sometimes, among mer-
chants, the tools of the artisan.-Lippin-

Millions OF Cook Book Given Away.

There is one large house in this coun-
try that has taken business on it's turn
and means to ride in on the rising tide.
Alive to the signs of better times and to
the best interests of the people, they are
now circulating among families a valua-
BILE publication known as The Charles A.

preparation and distribution, with the
hope that it will be just the thing needed
for housekeepers, and just the thing
needed also for the care of the health
and household. AS a Cookery Book it
will be invaluable to keep on hand for
reference.
1t also contains full information in re-
gard to the great remedies of this house,
which provide against bodily ailments,
especially the Master Cure for Pains and

To give some idea of the labor and ex-
pense of this output more than 200 tons
of paper have been used in its publica-

has taken several months for the issue.
