York upon "The Changing Feminine

menace, as there are always two sides
TO picture. 1t is the growing discon-
tent of the girls. They want to do
everything to live their lives so fully.
The army of young women has found
out that love making and marriage is
not the only aim. Marriage is becom-
ing to women what it has always
been to men-merely an incident. Our
mothers took as a guiding principle
selfshness, and who of us, with our
shallow, hurrying selfishness, dares to
say we are better? Still, the modern
woman sees that this old-time selfish
ness had an immoral side, for the self
effacing ways turned many a we'll
meaning man into a selfish brute, and
raised selfish children for his genera
ton. But the present woman's sense
of her right to her own life is con-
stant menace to the family. The girl
of today is supplementing the old word
duty with the words to myself

RINGLING BROS, CIRCUS.
This Famous Exhibitor More Than
Doubled Since Last Season.


Ringling Bros. famous Worlds Great
est shows will exhibit In Hillsdale, Fri
day, August 18th. The event will be
doubly interesting one, for the present
season marks distinct era In the growth
of this biggest of big shows. Since last
season the paraphernalia Of the show
has been entirely reconstructed, and the
exhibition is now fully twice as large as
during the season of 1897. There are
twice as many elephants; twice as many
railroad cars; twice as many people;
twice as many performers; twice as much
seating capacity; twice as many arenic
spaces; twice as much space on the huge
hippodrome course for the exciting rae
ing contests, and twice as many OF the
great and distinctive features which have
hitherto given Ringing Bros famous
circus Its superb individually. IL Is evil
dent that such an enormous enlargement
of an exhibition, already vastly larger
and better than its incorporates, must
have entailed the expenditure OF a
princely sum, and IL Is not a surprise TO
learn that the actual capital invested in
Rinpling Bros Worlds Greatest Shows
this season is over $3,700000. This,
moreover, comprehends only a portion of
the outlay, for the daily cost OF operating
this stupendous institution averages
$7,400, an aggregate of over $1,2O0,0OO
during the season. It i therefore. no
exaggeration to say that &ss great exhi'
bition re sents more. capital and a
greater auuual expense than all other
shows con lined. And the circusl to say
that Ripg ing Bros. have this year
brought together the greatest aggrega-
ton of arenic celebrities ever seen, either
In America or In Europe, is simply to
repeat the declaration of all who have
seen this seasons marvellous exhibition.
The most intrepid riders; the most
gracefully-athletic acrobats; the most
startling mid-air evolutionists; the most
wondrously trained animals, embracing
25 reason endowed elephants-a happy
family of wisest pachyderms, ranging
from the tniest OF baby elephants TO the
largest OF living beasts, the most massively
gorgeous dens and cages of rare wild
beasts, in countless numbers and endless
variety; and over all the largest, the
longest, the highest canvas pavilions ever
constructed; absolutely waterproof, and
affording vast areas for the exhibition OF
the geologic, ethnic, equine and gymnic
wonders Of the great show.

Candid Comparisons.

If &c shall be said that Mexico and

NIT Of such comparisons being fairly
made or to allow of their possessing
practical and present value in the Unit
ed States even when so made, will
only ask that such presentation as l

fullyi considered. The reader himself
can easily decide as to whether the facts
presented possess any information which
will assist in best determination of the

the free coinage of silver in the United
States is in some degree represented in

worth more than promises based on con-
