Among the strong points Of United States
Senator Thomas Collier Platt Of New York

seldom mistaken in q man, and this is a trait
that is essential for political managers to

Political matters were in the Empire

II mends that the coming leg
islature should incorporate
an act in the laws of the state Of
Pennsylvania restricting the sale nt
poisons and laudanum and prohibit
ing their sale TO minors under the age

whose ideas of duty went a trihe be-

deliberation is to be praised. Suicide
by poison is becoming as appalingly
common as murder by poison was in
the days OF the De Medici.
Little girls who have been scolded
by their mothers for breaking a dish,

boys who have been refused permis-

injured complacence and take similar
doses. If they found 1t a tribe more
