The door of health stands open to every
woman who will enter. All that she needs
is the key and little knowledge. The
knowledge that she needs is concerning her

the principal cause of illhealth in women.
When a woman suffers from headaches
and pains in the back and sides, and burn
ing and dragging sensations and the weak
ness, nervousness aud dependency that
arc caused by diseases peculiar TO hcr sex,
she cannot enjoy good general health. The

high value as stimulant when some

NOTES FROM THE HUB.


The creation of the mayors adj
vlsory committee does not seem to
call for further testimony in order 10
selt-Iustlicaiion. The Shuman re-
port ON this subject to the Boston
chamber of commerce abundantly con
fnms tins statement on the plain rec
ord. The committee has been in eN-
lstence two years. During that time
1t has contributed of it's counsel To
the mayor at times and III ways not
readily measured by the value of their
results. The many and important
questions affecting the business vel
fare of Boston have received most
substantial help i'll being properly am
swered from the experience and
opinions of the advisory committee of
merchants. 1t was II remarkably
happy thought that suggested itself
to Mayor Quincy which has since re-
ceived such practical elaboration. The
men selected for this committee of
cOunsellors to the mayor have shown
their readiness to serve the best in
tereSts of the city by giving time and
thought to its affairs as whole. and
III its relations to the outside world.
They have earned the sincere graft
tude of the great body of their fellow
citizens. \ mere glance ut the num-
Der and character of the subjects and
public interests which have come
under their consideration and received
their careful thought is proof enough
of the substantial service they have
rendered the city, 1t will show that
there was nothing of perfunctory
kind in the performance of their
chosen duty. 1t will likewise show
the diligence of their efforts as well
as the responsibility which their duties
imposed upon them. There Is the
matter of the new Union station
still so-called, i'll the southern sec
ton of the city. There is the pneu-
matte tube system, the Elevated rail
road project, and the perfection of the
subway lease. And there is also the
comprehensive question of taxation
and tax revision, state and municipal,
the question of water supply rs in
vOlyed i'll an appropriate act and as
proposed by the state board of health,
/ and the abolition of the grade crossing
on Dorchester avenue. These are
each and all matters of vital relation
ship to the citys welfare, its continued
growth, and its permanent prosperity.
BY the close and careful attention
given to them by this advisory COM
mittee they have sufficiently demon
strated the need of just such a body
of the Boston merchants as part OF
the permanent working government OF
! the city.

The books of the United States
Mint in Denver show that the deposits
of gold for the last year were the
largest ever received. The total will
slightly exceed &l2, 100000, and Il
conservative estimate made by the
Mint officials places the entire output
of Colorado at 81, 900, 600, in round
figures. Colorado will go far ahead
of California, as it is said to be doubt
full if California output will touch the
S1S, 900, 900 mark. Last year CoIorado's s
output was SIG, 100000 and that of
California was $1,000, 600 while the
total production of the country was
$6l, ,717,925.

One of the suggestions in the re-
cent message of Mayor Quincy, which
is attracting much interest among sci
entitic men and members of the Boston
Society of Natural History, is the
plan to establish a marine aquarium
at City Point, South Boston. SO far
as the carrying out of the suggestion
is concerned, it is impossible to say
when anything will be done. The
parties most interested i'll the
matter, however, the members of
the Boston Society of Natural History,
under the auspices of which the
plan is to be carried out, have pre-.
pared the plans for the proposed
aquarium, and while the beginning is
proposed to be modest one, it is be-
lieved the foundation will be laid for
what will become one of the greatest
public attractions Of Boston. The
plan of a public aquarium is no new
one, the Society of Natural History
having advocated such an institution
for the last twenty-five years. In Il
modest building, it is proposed to
have series of tanks with glass sides,
where the visitor will go into dark
room surrounded on three sides
by these tanks. Instead of look
ing down into these tanks, as is
common in aquaria, he will go into
this room, the only light in which
comes through the water i'll aquaria,
and will then see the fish and marine
plants as though he had actually made
aiourney to the bottom of the sea. Only
in this way can one gain correct Idea
of how marine animals live i'll their
natural home. 1t is believed that an
aquarium planned in this way would
bevisited daily by thousands who would
not only be amused, but instructed,
for it is the purpose of the Natural
History society to place III the en-
trance of the building an exposi-
ticn of the relations of animals and
plants to their surroundings, which,
with a small synortical collection,
will give the visitor an idea
of the differences between the great
groups of animals and marine plants
of the New England coast, and the re-
lation of their habits and natural sur
roundings, as we'll as between these
and their structure. 1t is the idea OF
Professor Sedgwick that such place
could be made splendid auxiliary to
the public school system of Boston,
and that teachers, with their classes,
would visit the place III large numbers
as they now come to the rooms OF the
Society of Natural History on free
days" 1t IS proposed, i'll order that
the expense of the undertaking may
not be too great, to put in the aqua
rirm at first only the marine ami
mails and plants which would find
their natural surroundings duplicated
at City Point without heating the
water or preparing it specially for them.
The fauna from the northern limit OF
the United States coast to New York,
or even farther south, might be ac-
auired without great cost, and few
people have an idea of its variety OF
brilliancy. The exhibition of the
marine fauna and fora Of the New
ENGLAND coast alone would astonish
any one but naturalist by its strange
ness and beauty, and it is believed
that the success of the new aquarium
in New York would be repeated here,
while systematic collection of the
living marine animals and plants would
be OF great educational value,

The Topeka Capital has decidedly
the short end of an argument with the
Topeka American. When DIR. A. S.
Embree went to Bridgeport his accus-
ers in Topeka, composed of certain
colored people, evidently notified par
ties in Bridgeport of the scandal with
which DIR. Embree was unfortunately
connected. The American printed a
full report of the scandal. A Method
ist minister of Bridgeport wrote the
American for a copy of it's issue con-
tanning the report, and two copies
were forwarded. Out of this the Cap
ital has produced 5000 extra copies
sent to all the Methodists in Bridge
port by POPULISTS for political
purposes, and stated on its usual posi-
tive authority that prominent" Pop
u1ists had caused this extra 5000 issue.
But now comes the Topeka Newspaper
Union and offers to make affidavit
that no extra copies of the American
have been issued in the past three
months, and the Capital is now trying
to locate itself; while the boys are cry

THEY OWN SPAIN.
A Well As Several Other Countries.
From The New York Press

A. Well As Several other Countries.
From The New York Press.
Spain is owned by the Rothschilds.
The queen regent and the boy king
are picturesque figureheads. That
nation which made it point of honor
and religion to torture Hebrews is now
as absolutely owned by the great Jew
ish bankers as purchase can give
title. 1t is strange sort of an anon
ally, this nation which saw the trains
of mules shod with silver, entering
Madrid bearing their panniers laden
with gold and gems despoi1ed from
the empires of Montezuma and the
Inca now selling its notes of hand in
the open market far below par.
The Rothschilds are not at present
much delighted with their bargain,
bat ePain wac bought comparatively
cheap, and her owners may get some
thing back eventually. It is a piece
of property which is capable of being
improved, and if put into the hands
Of joint stock company something
might be done with it. AT present the
owners of Spain are letting the royal
family and a number of politicians
manage the estate, but are about
ready to get new stewards.
SPANS LOAD OF DEBT.
The debt of Spain is given by the
British authority. the Statesman's
year book, as nearly 1000 million dol
lars, besides 600 million dollars which
has been saddled on Cuba, and for
which the island is mortgaged. Then
Spain has floating debt" of about
400 million dollars, and, furthermore,
her relations with the Bank of Spain
are not satisfactory to the bank.
In short, Spain Is mortgaged for all
that can be raised on her, and the
Rothschilds hold the mortgages. They
can foreclose this mortgage at any
time, and, of course, Spain could not
fight through war without money or
credit. The Rothschilds are not dis
posed to loan her money, and at the
Office of August Belmont & Co., the
New York agents of the Rothschilds,
twas positively stated last week that
Spain had contracted no private loan.
