The pains of rheumatism should be reminded that cure for this disease may be found in Hoods Sarsaparil!a. The experience of those who have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla for rheumatism and have been comple tely and per synanently cured, prove the power of this medicine to rout and conqener this disease. Hoods Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier and 1t neutraizes the acids which causes the aches and pains of rheumatism. This is why it absolutely cures when lini- ments and other outward applications fail to give permanent relief. Be sure to get Hoods.

Bryan iii Mexico.

Hon. William J. Bryan has lately made an extensive our of the republic of Mexico, and the public DO doubt await the ol inons on conditions in that country with great interest. The Evening Telegram, published in the city of Mexico, after paying Mr. Bryan high compliment and referring in glowing terms to the warm welcome accorded to him throughout the rapub- lie of Mexico, says the people "are o9s. unnsturally carions to know what ais opinions of this fair laad are. Then the Telegram adds.
 It is presumably fact that Mr, Bryan's views on silver are founded npon what he believes to be the best fir his own land; he must therefo feel disappointed regarding this coun- try, unless as some unkind people aiege, he came here to obtain only data for another political campaign.
 Be this as it may, and rejecting the latter proposition. it would not only be interesting, but highly instructive to really learn Mr. Bryau's true views upon Mexico and silver.
 Believing Mr. Byran to be @ goutieY man of more tban ordinary intelligence We thlnk that distinguished Ameucan citizen must have ded0ced from what he has seen, something ike the foI- lowing opiaions
 First That the condition of Mexico and the United States are so diametica ally opposite that comparison is not only impossible, but even absurd.
 Secondly. That the fact that we have free coinage Is not responsible for our present prosperity. In fact, probably under gold standard we should have done as well if not better.
 Thirdly. That the present rate of exchange hes accelerated investments here. Remembering although that unless the very excellent government We possess at present. through the grace of God and Portfrio Diaz, did not exist, not centayo would be in vested in this republic. howeve. favor able the exchange.
 Fourthly. Even allowing that our prosperity is due to our haVings unlin- tied coinage of silver, the conditions of every sort here are so absolutely different from those prevailing in the United States, that the fact that the white metal WAS a source of benefit to Mexico would at the same time tend to prove that it was impossible benetit to our great northern neighbor.
 We are all glad to welcome Mir. Bryan as distinguished American citizen, and we only hope that he may when he returns to his own country be able to instill into his conntrymFn the real cause of Mexjto's eXtraordina- " prosperity, viz: an honest, nndaunt- ed administration and unparalled nat ural resources, the latter so, unrlvalled that even the depressing condition of silver has.been unable to effect them.

kind OF trade that suits his fancy. The
mother has absolutely no voice in the
disposition or employment OF her chill
dren: that is, under the law. Ofcourse,
women usually make themselves heard
and felt even in the homes of the most
tyranuical of men.
That women have made such progress
is all the more remarkable because they
are Disseminated against as to wages
No matter how willing they may be or
how well they may work in factories or
in business offices, doing the same kline
of work as men, and sometimes we'll
nigh twice as much, they receive nor
more than two-thirds and sometimes
rot more than one half as much ms men
in the same factories and in the same
offices.
Moreover when women undertake TO
secure employment in the . executive
departnents at Washington they ma

or 81 500 per annum; while In the same
room women are doing precisely the
same work. Just as well, and more oil
IL, and are receiving but 5000 per an
mum. 1t will thus be seen that even the
federal government discriminates
against women in the matter OF wages.
However, in spite of these and all
other handicaps and drawbacks, the
women of this republic are gradually
growing out of vassalage into praetica'
independence. Many of them want the
privilege of voting; but that is another
story and will not be discussed by the
writer. SMITH y. FRY.

as to voting for state and national Of
ficcrs. However, it is likely that they
will soon acquire all of these rights,
inasmuch as all parties seem to be
united in favor of a proposition to
strike 'one word out of that clause
which grants the right of ballot to
every male citizen" That word is
male" Thus it is likely that before
long Kansas will elect women as rep
resentatives in congress, and perhaps
rs senators. Respecting all municipal
ing effectively in control.
Thirty years ago the legislature of
Wyoming passed u law granting TO
women all the rights as to voting which
men possessed in the territory. There
is nothing to prevent woman from
being governor of that state. Tie sue
C, SIS of the system has been fully dem
onstrated there. Odd as it may seem,
the men like it.
1t is true that women are still dis
eliminated against apart from matters
political. In every state of the union
the old common law is still in force
which permits man to heat his wife
so long as he does not use a stick big
ger round than his thumb. lie is per-
does nothing more than tie her TO a
| bed post and whale her in moderation.
During the last year more than 1000
men were arrested in Boston for beat
| ing their wives.
There is not state where the wife
can own n penny of The family income,
unless she possesses property in her
own right or earn wages outside of the
| household. She is obliged to beg
money from her husband. He gives"
| it to her. She is dependent on his
| bounty, Notwithstanding the fact that
she does at least an equal share of the
work involved in the domestic partner
ship, bearing and rearing the children,
acting cs housekeeper and household
drudge. This practice of putting the
woman in the place of n beggar also
prevails in good" society. There is
nothing quite so mean in this world
as stngy husband, and there is no
| joke about the ott-quoted query:
What did you do with the 25 cents
gave you week before last?'
1t will thus be seen that no matter
what their natural abilities may be,
nor how great and varied their edu-
cational requirements, women are
obliged to begin life at disadvantages
and to remain at disadvantage no
matter whether they be in the married
or single state. 1t is all the more TO
the credit of the women of the genera

Grafton that they have made such prog

Even now in 80 states women have
not equal rights with men even as to
the guardianship of their own chill

over them and can take them away

Quirk didn't yell, though. He jumped to
the side of the track and grabbed the man
by the collar and yanked him clear Of the
tracks and almost out Of bis shoes. Then
he gave him another ferocious jerk to get
him out of the way Of an express wagon,
and, getting him at proper range at the same
time he gave the poor man a kick that must
have driven his spine up into his hat. And
with the kick Quirk roared:
"Confound you, keep your eyes open when
you are on the street."
Quirk looked unutterably savage, but Perk
tottered to the curb, sat down and laughed
until the tears came. Then he said:

earth to save a mans life and then kick
him for it."-Chicago Times Herald.

Women as Small Farmers.

An important experiment will short
~ be made with the object of forming
settlements of women in different
parts of the country for the cultiva-
ton of the land, and thus enabling
them to add to their incomes by the
sale of fruit, flowers, vege bles, poul-
try, eggs. honey, etc. The idea was
started by the countess of Warwick,
and an institution will be opened in
connection with Reading college in Oc-
.ober where they may be trained spe-
cially for the work. 1t will be found
ed for the definite purpose of enabling
women over the age of l6 to obtain a
thorough training Theoretical and
practically in the lighter branches of
agriculture. viz; Flower and fruit
growing, and packing for market, es-
pecially bush fruit, tomatoes, mush-
rooms, etc. bee and poultry keeping,
dairy work. The council of Reading
college have consented to provide the
necessary courses of instruction, and
TO recognize the countess of War
wick's Hostel as a place of residence
for women students. The full course
of instruction will extend over two
wears, but those who wish to do so may
| join the short course and spe sial
classes. 1t is hoped that the inclusive
| fees for instruction and board will nos
exceed ESQ year.
