An Unmanly Complaint.

It's no. only unmanly, but it is
outrageously unjust for men to COM
plain that women are driving them
out Of employment. There are 49,
600, 900 heads Of families in the United
States. Some Of these are widows,
but the greater number are men.
There are men enough in the country
to support all the women if they
would. The fact is they do not. 1t
is their own fault. If every man who
pretends to be man were supporting
a woman as he should there would be
probably 100000 places in Offices,
stores, shops and factories that are
now occupied by women workers left
free to men and the women would be
at home. The worst feature in the
entire situation is that the women are
put off with about one-haAf the wages
given to men for the same services.
This is an outrage in many cases.

The ObIiteration Of sectlonalism.

A reader of the New York Evensng
Post sends the following:
"a pathetic incident occurred in a
Broadway cable Car last week, when
an Ext Confederate soldier, who him
self entered the Confederate army at
the age Of 18 and fought through che
war, was attracted to sickly-looking
youth Of 18 with the United States
army uniform on, and engaged him in
conversation. Finding that he was
on furlough owing to illness, and on
his way to Ohio, and further that all
he possessed was fifty cents, plus his
transportation, the ex-Confederate
took him to breakfast, and with the
assistance Of few friends placed him
in ample funds to travel, likewise
providing sleeping car accommoda-
tion. Thus has the Cuban war, mis-
erable in 80 many respects, served at
least one good end, viz, to obliterate
all lingering vestiges Of sectionalism,
leaving us one country, under one
f1ap."
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1898-09-14

The packers at the battle of Santi-
ago de Cuba were all heroes. Their
heroic efforts in getting ammunition
and rations to the front saved the day.
P. f. Butler, of packtrain No. 3,
writing from Santiago de Cuba, on
July 23rd, says: eve all had diar-
rhoea in more or less violent form,
and when we landed We had no time
to see doctor, for it was case Of
rush and rush night and day to keep
the troops supplied with ammunition
and rations, but thanks to Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy, we were able to keep at work
and keep our health; in fact, I sin
cerely believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect saviour
of our army, for if the packers had
been unable to work there would have
been no way of getting supplies to the
front. There were no roads that a
wagon train could use. Ny comrade
and myself had the good fortune to
lay in supply of this medicine for
our pack train before we left Tampa,
and I know in four cases it absolutely
saved life"
The above letter was written to the
manufacturers of this medicine, the
Chamberlain Medicine Co., Des Moines,
Iowa. For sale by Hill-Orr Drug Go.
