well-known remedy DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Mrs. Weaver is fifty-six years old, and
has lived in Bushnell nearly thirty years.
She is of unquestioned veracity and unblem.

larger box over it, cutting hole

LAWS AGAINST WOMEN.
One of the Most fragrant Cases OF
Injustice Cited.

The law which makes the nationality
of wife depend on that of her hus-
band has worked much hardship in this
country as well as abroad. But one of
the most fragrant cases of injustice
arising from this humiliating status is
cited by Agnes f.. Cook as occurring at
Gibraltar, the British military station
on the Mediterranean.
No alien can live in Gibraltar without
special permit, so il a British girl mar
ries Spanish subject she passes out
she nor her children, even though she
be widow, can return. Her male rel
atives can marry Spanish wives and
take them into Gibraltar. but she is an
alien forever. The case referred to is
that of n British girl who married a
Spaniard named Garzon. He was suffi-
GENTLY useful to the British to be al
lowed to live there by special permit.
Last year he died, and it would have
seemed very proper for his widow to
have remained with her parents in Glib
raltar, who were very anxious to make
n home for her and to have her with
them. Her baby was born five days
after her husbands death. and the au-
thorities generously allowed her to re-
main with her mother until she had
somewhat recovered from her illness.
Her mother by her entreaties OBJ
tanned from the police an extension OF
this time for ten days, but then the
poor young woman. in enfeebled health
and without means of support, was
obliged to quit the garrison. 1t takes
an individual outrage like this to show
the possible and legitimate outcome of
the unjust discrimination against the
married woman. If men had DELHI
erately planned how they could keep
self-respecting women out of the mar
rage condition they could not have de-
Nised any measure worse than the dis
abilities which law has heaped upon
woman i'll marriage. Signal.

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

We cannot see the sun itself; we see
only the cloud of vapor that covers it,
like the mantle of Welsbach burner.
Prof. Elmer Gates, of Washington,
has recently improved the performance
of the microscope, and il is now posi-
BILE for the human eye to see an object
magnified 100000 times. Heretofore
10000 has been the limit.
The sun consists of three parts, the
central portion, or nucleus, which is
gaseous, but rendered viscous under the
enormous pressure and high temper
allure, the philosophers of incandescent
metallic vapors, and the corona, which
is only observable during the time of
total eclipse.
OF the 3,5G0,000 square miles of Can
ada there are between 100000 and
100000 of square miles which will
produce neither cereals nor forests of
commercial value. OF this territory
there is a tract of 100000 square miles
inhabited by fur-bcaring animals. and
known to the Indians as the bare and
trecless plains, or the barren lands.
The working of a plan of ventilation
of rooms devised by DR.. CaStainC, prin-
cipal physician of the French armies,
is highly commended. 1t consists in the
use of double windows. with openings
at the bottom of one and AT the top of
the opposite one, through which the
air comes in freely without anyone feel
ing it. The system is said to possess
simplicity, efficiency and cheapncss.
According to the recent calculations
of Prof. j. c. Kapteyn, of Amsterdam,
100000 miles a day is the velocity with
which the sun and its planets are speed
ing through space in n northerly direc-
ton. The brightest star in that part
of the heavens toward which we are go
ing is the brilliant Vega, in the constel
lation Lyra, n sun unquestionably much
greater than ours. Every year, by Prof.
Kapetyn's estimate, we draw some 3O0,-
000,00 miles nearer to that star.

Cattle Utilized for Smuggling.

Some of the shrewdest tricks ever
played are by the smugglers of opium"
said ii. A. Tanning, of Seattle. "A very
unique smuggling scheme was un-
earthed few years ago by the United
States secret service officers in North
Dakota. 1t was noticed that an I'M
usually large number of cattle were be-
ing driven across the line to the North
Dakota markets, and the secret service
men planned an investigation. For
some time their work was in vain. and
they had about given up hope OF dis
covering any unlawful operations, when
an accident revealed the fact that the
1ostrIls of .he cattle were stuffed with
opium wrapped carefully in tin foil.
In this way each steer was worth twice
It's normal value. Hundreds upon hun
1reds of animals had been driven across
the border with their nostrit.s loaded
with opium, and il was estimated that
the smugglCrs had cleaned up a profit
of $4,000 before the discovery was
made. But the smugglers were sly
and they escaped and were never cap
tured. st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
