Women who are easily excited, who

Among the diseases that cause a vast
amount Of needless suffering that may be
readily cured by Paine's celery compound
are hliousness, torpid liver, headaches,
sleeplessness, dizziness, constipation,
dyspepsia and general nervousness and
debility.
No man or woman who is continually
ailing can successfully carry on business,

When either of these vital conditions of
adequate repair or elimination are in
completely done, the organs need just
such help as Paine's celery compound is
fitted to give. No other remedy is so
valuable.
Where other remedies have failed,
Paine's celery compound will succeed.

THE SERVANT QUESTION.

A writer in Harper's Bazaar argues
that since women find it hard to get
and keep good servants, women must
be unfit to vote.
But do men so generally succeed in
their own especial realm" OF bust
ness? 1t is said that of the men who
go into business in Boston, ninety per
cent. fail. This may not be based on
accurate statistics. but the fact that
it is popularity believed shows how fire.
quent failures must be. Certainly,
there are not more than ninety per
cent. Of women who make failure of
their housekeeping.
Harper's Bazaar says: There are only
two alternatives: either the servant
question is bigger than any question
which man grapples with, or woman
is less fitted to grapple with difficult
questions than man. l hardly think
the most daring suffragist would choose
the first
Yet eminent anti-suffrage authority
might be quoted for this view. Dr..
Lyman Abbott's paper, THE Outlook"
in describing the qualifications neces-
sary for a successful house-maker and
home-maker, lately said that her Eek
ecutive ability must be that of a rail-
road president, her fnanciering ability.
that of banker, her diplomacy equal
to that OF minister at a foreign
court There are at least as many
successful housekeeners as men who
combine the abilities Of a railroad

president, banker, and a foreign min
ister
There are two main reasons for the
trouble women have with servants.
The first is woman's false education
and lack of business training II has
been held a reproach to woman to
be 'strong-minded." But the weak
minded woman from Dora Copperfeld
down, is not likely to be a good house
keeper. Col. 7. w. Higginson, quoting
the famous dictum, The perfection Of
character in a woman is to be charac-
terless," says that man may think
so when he is counting, but it is doubt
full if in later years he really enjoys
having to act as mediator between his
weeping wife and the enraged second
girl
The other reason lies in the diff
Guilty Of the domestic problem itself,
under modern conditions. The prob
lem is to find a large supply OF young
women who will choose a kind of work
involving long hours, loneliness, and
certain amount of social stigma,
when they have their choice of many
other occupations that offer shorter
hours, greater opportunities for COM
partnership and amusement. and no
social stigma.
Farmers find it as hard to get good
farm hands as housekeepers to get
good kitchen girls, and for the same
reason-the long hours and the loneli-
ness of the work. a hundred years
ago, neither farmers nor housekeepers
had any trouble in getting help, be-
cause then agriculture was the chief
pursuit of men, and homework almost
the only employment open to women.
The difficulty has grown up with the
changed conditions of modern life,
which have opened great variety of
more attractive occupations.
Parodying the article in Harper's
Bazaar, we might say: "Since Adam
delved in Eden, men have been strug-
Cling with agriculture, yet the farmers
of the nineteenth century find it al
most impossible to get and keep good
help. Evidently, farmers are not fit
to vote" How absurd such reasoning
sounds in the case of men! Is it any
