The total vote of Louisiana at the election Nov. 8
was 3a.2ao for Representatives and 80. I7o for
Railway Commissioner. 1t is needless to say that
this Is the smallest vote ever cast in Louisiana. In
the State election held in 1895 the total vote cast was
eo5, 354. or seven times what 1t WAS last month. and
even in the Presidential election the total vote was

The late election gives some idea Of what the vote
will be under the new conditions prevailing in the
State in regard to suffrage and registration.

HaY-EeYer.

Change of climate as means of relief from
this distressing malady is, at best, uncertain,
annoying, and expensive. 1t never cures,
and the relief is but temporary. Year by
year the benefit is less, and new places have
to be tried. Business interests suffer be-
cause of enforced absence; your family may
have to suffer because deprived of necessaries
in order to pay your bills; you suffer your
self if you return "ahead of time"
Not so with our patients. They can stay
at home in comfort, carry on their usual oc-
cupation, and perform their duties; have
relief from the terrible itching, burning,
sneezing, coughing, wheeling, and distress
for breath; can sleep sound, and awake re-
freshened; and best of all, can be cured to
stay cured. Write to DR.. Hayes, Buffalo, n.

 Heroes.

"Martha Washington was ther forty-fve years Of age, and those who went to the camp and expected to find her arrayed in the gowns which they had supposed would be worn by the Generals wife were disappointed" writes William Per rine of "Washington's Christman at Valley Forge" in the December Lodies' Home Journal. ""Wbilst our husbands and brothers are ex- amples eff patriotism,' she would say to her countrywomen, we must be patterns of industry.' She did not hesitate to wear a brown dress and speckled apron when receiving fastidious and elegant visitors at Morristown. It was said afterward that she acquired her inveterate habit of knitting in her zeal at Valley Forge to relieve the bare footed men around her. On every fair day she might be seen walking through the rude streets ofthe town of hutS with basket in her hand Entering the hut of a sergeant, she found him dying on pallet ofstraw, his wife beside him in the anguish of final separation. She mlnistered to his comfort with food prepared by her own hands. Then kneeling she earnestly prayed with her sweet and solemn voice fer the stricken couple. All day long she was busy with these errands of grace, or in the kitchen at the stone house, or in urging other women to lend a helping hand. And when she passed along the lines of the troops she would sometimes hear the fervent cry of God bless Lady Washington or Long live Lady Washington We'll, indeed, might the men feel that they could fight to their very last drop of blood with a commander whose wife, who was formerly the belle and leader eff her set among the danes and damsels of Virginia, was not ashamed to be seen darning his and her own stock ingsp

nti.BachelOr Movement.

According to note in the Comr- 9ser de Paris, the Athenians and Greeks collectively intend to ex- clude all bac helors from their Par liament. The idea seems to be that the bachelor has no stake in the commonwealth; if he is represented that is as much as he can ask for
 A representative he ought never to be, for whom does he represent ex- cept himself? And herein the Greeks seem to fancy that they have found cure for celibacy, so that all citizens will marry, and the lawful and legitimate population of Athens will increase, while every young Greek having before him as the summum bOnum a seat in the Chamber, will know that his best assurance thereof will be the votes of his constituents based on.the sIze of his family. Should the measure be passed-and there are so many canards of anti bachelor crusades that one feels some doubt about the story-Europe will watch the ex- pertinent of the Parliament of the married men with much interest It will not last long, because when women are elected to Parliament they will restore the bachelor legis- Iator, as the gittings would be toe dull for them without him.
