Vermont has prohibitory law, and it is as we'll enforced as prohibitory laws
 usually are. But rum can still be ob-

 made that many of the people of that

 selves which are almost if not quite as
 harmful as drinking. Dr. A. P. Grin

SAUCE FOR THE GANDER.

In these days of clamor for more rights for woman there is little talk about the rights of man, the theory being, we suppose, that he is still so far ahead of woman in rights that his case doesn't need attention. But it is to be record ed that the Michigan legislature has come to the relief of abused Michigan husbands, both houses having passed bill which provides that courts may al- low alimony to husbands who secure divorces on the ground of adultery, ex- treme cruelty or desertion, the same as is now provided for wives.
 There seems to be justice in this, and we congratulate the Michigan man on this addition to his chances.

Wall street braced up, or was braced
 up. yesterday Prices rose, there were
 no failures of any consequence, confi-
 dence seemed to be restored, and though
 the money lost Thursday wasn't re- stored to those who lost it there was plenty of money around to do business
 with. Thursdays knock was hard one, and yet 1t didn't discourage, or
 even seriously depress, the optimists.
 They still talk big, and some of them
 seem to think that Wall street will
 soon be as lively and cheerful as ever.
 Their argument is that everybody and
 everything in the United States is all
 right, except, of course, those who got
 slain Thursday. They say that every
 industry throughout the United States
 is thriving as 1t never throve before.
 People are approximately freer of debt
 than they have ever been before Mon- ey is more plentiful and more widely
 dispersed than 1t ever was before. The banks are carrying larger reserves than ever before. Interest rates are lower than they ever were before. The coun- try has more gold within it's borders by hundreds of millions than it ever had before. We have more power Co command gold from abroad than we ever had before. Europe has less pow CT to raid the United States for gold than 1t ever had before We are going to have during the fiscal year ending next July the biggest balance of trade the country has ever known. Our man. ufacturers have reached the point where they can triumph over Europe in almost every market of the world In the real property of the country prices are steady, and legitimate trade seems to be flourishing on secure foundation.
 And so forth and so on. On the other hand the croakers wag their heads and say that Thursdays. panic is likely to have widespread and harmful conse- quences, and that it is not likely that the situation will continue to be as sat- isfactory as it has been. They look for a decline in business, and the ultimate | discovery that all is not gold that gilt | ters. Pay your money and take your choice. It has been wild time, and if | we are going to have another one as wild, or even wilder, soon the sages, ln- cluding Uncle Russell, will be inclined to doubt the value of experience.
