The women of to-day are not as strong
as their grandmothers.
They are bearing burden in silence
that grows heavier day by day, that is
sapping their vitality, elouding their hap
piness, weighing them down with the woe
Of i'll health.
Mrs. Alexander B. Clark, of Az Michi-
gan Avenue, Detroit, is typical woman
of to-day. A wife with such ambition as
only loving wife can have. But the
joys of her life were marred by the *
istence Of disease.
Suffering as thousands of her sisters have
suffered, she almost despaired Of Life and
yet she was cured.
To-day she is we'll!
She wants others to profit by her ex-
perience; to grow well; to enjoy health,
to be as happy as she is.
"For five years suffered with ovarian
trouble" is Mrs. Clark's own version Of
the story. ~ was not free one single day
from headache and intense twitching pains
in my neck and shoulders.
"For months at time would be con-
fined to my bed.
AT times black spots would appear
before my eyes and would become Blind.

A thoughtful and instructive paper on
Missions was read by Mrs. G. j. Peterson
Of Belvidere. An entertaining paper on
the Student Volunteer Movement" was
read by E. S. Pierce of Putuey.
In the absence of Rev, E. S. French of
johnson, Rev. IN Gardner of Winthrop,
Mass, spoke on the''Tenth Legion" He
gave rafting address of ten minutes and
amorg other things said: Churches in
the good old times used to raise money by
gambling and extortion, but these methods
have now been largely abandoned and the
appeal to the stomach substituted. The
methods now used are the two to one and
tie to two methods, that is churches
give 81 worth of food to raise So, or more
often give So worth OF food to raise 81 If
there is any person in the world who is not
likely to give penny it is the person who
with sanctimonous accent says, "All l have
belongs to the Lord" That persons giving
will not be royal but will be pennyroyal
The true way of giving is to give accord
ing to our praying. We want more peo-
pie to give, people to give more, and more
people to give to more objects.
The ''Quiet Hour was conducted by
Mrs. F. V. D. Garrison of North Pownal,
who spoke earnestly of her personal expe-
riences. Rev. O. S. Davis of Springfield
answered several written questions in
breezy manner to the entertainment and
profit OF all present.
The last speaker of the morning was
Rev. W. G.. Puddefoot, who was intro
duced as from the United States. He Sc
lected the subject, Spiritual VS.. Worldly
Harvests," and spoke Of the wonderful de-
velopments, physical and spiritual, in this
country during the past 40 years. His stir
ring address of 80 minutes was closely fol-
lowed and warmly applauded. He was the
most entertaining and original speaker of
the convention, and we regret that we are
not able to give some of his sensible and
witty sentences.

HIM feel and appreciate the friendship of
Christian Endeavor; teach him the sig
nifcance of true independence.
The third address was by Rev. w. G..
Puddetoot on the subject of temperance.
The effect of his remarks was plainly indi.
Gated by the fact that the applause when he
stepped onto the platform was greater than
when he left. During his short address in
the morning he had made very favorable
impression, but his ideas on temperance
were entirely at variance with the ideas OF
his audience, although he said a great deal
that came dangerously near being true.
''Endeavorers and the Press" this was
the subject of Rev. Warren p Landers,
press superintendent of Massachusetts, c.

with the Congregationalist and has been in
Bellows Bal, before in the interest of that
journal.
We must, he said, acknowledge the powe,
of the press. We see its daily products

CHRISTIAN ENDEAv0R
Thirteenth Annual State Conventional
Splendid SucCess-==Full Report OF Pro-
CeedingS.

The thirteenth annual convention OF the
Vermont Christian Endeavor Union has
come to Bellows Falls and gone again; it
was given cordial welcome and hearty
God-,peed. Should it ever come to this
place again it would be given even
warmer welcome. The attendance at all
the meetings was large, the program
throughout was excellently arranged and
carried out to the entire satisfaction OF all.
Col, E G. Gsgood, who was honored by
fourth election to the pr sidency OF the
Union, proved an able chailm and under
his direction the sessions of the convention
we're harmonious and everything was done
decently and in order. The singing OF
Mr.. and Mrs. George c. Stebbins of New
York was feature that will be long re-
M moered by all; their presence added
sunshine and Joy. The convention was
grand success and only words of praise
and commentator were heard.

rights. Every citizen, he asser ed
should rise 'up 'rior to the party
lash, be should assert the divine
right of boiling. To be an expert in the
art of scratching your ballot is one of the
qualifications of good citizenship and there
is not enough scratching done in Vermont.
No man ought TO vote until he can read
the Declaration Of Independence, the con-
stitution of the United States and reckon
the interest on the public debt. A severe
educ 4tional test should be required OF

who have no more right to vote than they
have to teach astronomy. We need more
brains and less Doodle. Great trusts and
monopolies are legalized theft. Three
great races are struggling for supremacy,
the Latin, the Slav and the Saxon. The
speaker favored an Anglo-Saxon alliance.

WEDNESDAY EVENING g..

The exercises began at 715 with a song
service conducted by Mr.. Ste5bins, during
which Mr.. and Mrs. Stebbins sang the
duet, "Saved by Grace" and sang it beau
tifully. Prayer was offered by Rev. c. R.
B. Dodge of Bellows Falls. The first
address was by Rev. F. A. Goodspeed of
Springfield, Mass, whore subject was
"Rights and Responsibilities OF Citizen
ship" He read learned political essay
which contained many good thoughts,
and was listened to closely. One of the
rights is the free and unobstructed right of
every citizen to vote as he pleases and any
denial of this right is a step toward
anarchy. The speaker saw a dark and
awful shadow on our political horizon, a
premonition of what will happen, the fear
full bloodshed, when the negroes of this
country rise to demand their political

THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

After a short song service State Secre-
tary George c. Pratt presented a banner
to the society at Ryegate for the best set OF
monthly reports during the year. The
first address wa, by Mrs. Mary Clement
Leavitt on the subject "Iemperance In
Vermont ard temperance in the rest OF the
world" Some OF her thoughts were: Yer
mont can always be depended upon to be
on the right side of every moral and rebgi-
GUS question. She had watched with in
terest what had been said and written in
opposition to the prohibitory law OF the
state the law cannot be opposed because
it is not good, because it is in accordance
with the law OF God There is no fault
with the law the fault is with its enforce
ment. Vermont and New Hampshire need
men who will take the same active part in
enforcing the law that Neil Dow did in
Maine. The speaker thought the present
Vermont law could be strengthened in
some particulars, and she urged those pres
ent to write members of the legislature, and
get others to write, urging them not to at
tempt to change the existing law.
Mrs. Leavitt lived in Thetford from the
time she was years old until the time of
her marriage a, 26 years of age and for
time was a student in Thetford Academy.
Her address was listened to with marked
interest and her opinions seemed to please
her audience for no speaker of the conven-
ton was more enthusiastically applauded.
The second address was made by Rev.
A. w. Hitchcock of Newburyport. Mass,
president of the Brotherhood of Andrew
and Philip. His subject was Young Man.

TUESDAY EVENING,

The first public exercise of the conven-
ton was held in the Bellows Falls opera
house Tuesday evening, The praise serv-
ice, which was under The direction OF

enjoyed by the large audience present.
The convention hall was prettily decorated
with bunting and G. E. f'gs. Directly

trio lights.

sustained. Many editors are alive to the
good in practical religion; they forward it
at every possible point when the good cause
is broad one.

the experiences OF other societies becoming

hall for re ception. This hall was appro-
priately decor ated and all present seemed
to enjoy the occasion. An orchestra was
present and light refreshments were served.

seen enough of the colored people to be
convinced that given equal advantages the
African race is the equal Of the Anglo

she had welcomed the bicycle but when she
saw how riders broke the Sabbath she had
become of different opinion. She had

The broad ax., 1898-08-06

Cuba was the island we went to war
to set free; but the accounts of the
treatment Of the Philippine islands by
Spain suggests strongly that some pow
er nearer geographically to those Is
lands than the United States ought long
since to have wrested them from the
Spanish grasp, In the interest Of hu-
manity. Here is what seems to be an
authentic statement Of the tax burdens
laid upon the islanders: IAN males
Svev q years of age must pay a poll-tax
fhEt equals $18 Of our money, and the
women must pay $14. A man must pay
a license to sell eocoanuts from his own
trees OF indigo Of his own raising. Ev-
cry article Of furniture that costs 81 of
our money is taxed. The curtain never
goes up at the theater unless $40 is paid
to the government, and for every act of
Strengthening his own animals, clipping
his own sheep or telling his own trees,
the Philippine farmer must pay fee TO
the government. There is exacted
government tribute for getting married
and for being buried. and at every step
and turn Of his life the tax-coIIector
holds out his hand to him, and It Is not
9 damand that can be refused" No
wonder Spain wishes to keep a posses
sion that yields such return; no wun-
der also that the last sixty years have
developed seventeen rsbelIions in the
Philippines.
