strong Light. overwork and Insanity.

Relatives OF Mrs. Jennie Hawkins,
who became insane. says the Chicago
Record.Hera say the woman's mind
was unbalanced because she had
worked for a long time under n bril-
liant electric light at hairdresslng cs-
tablishment Physicians say overwork
and lack of s.eep probably are respon.
sible. The light. they think. may have
caused a strain on the nerves through
the eyes. but they hold that the light
could not have been the direct cause Of

Harmony In Dress.

II Is in the harmony Of the details
that the French woman excels.
Through paying attention TO the min
utiae of her toilet she has acquired the
reputation OF being the best-dressed
and most tasteful woman In the world.
Whatever note she strikes in her
costume, be this subdued or dominant,
is repeated here and there in vest
or ribbon, or muff, or gloves, or UNI
brella, or petticoat, so that the whole
effect Is harmonious and appears to
have been carefully thought out.
In buying a new hat it is an import
ant point to select one that can be
worn with as many of ones visiting
gowns as possible, for II is false econ
omy TO buy headgear that-however
becoming in itself AM however cheap
is in violent disagreement with the
other contents Of ones wardrobe.
If either in color or style 1t is insult
ed to ones costume In general, then 1t
must lie neglected In Its box or the
purchase of an outfit to match it Is
necessitated.
a hat too magnificent to match for
everyday wear is often "a white ele-
phant' TO a girl who has few oppor-
tunitles for donning it and who bought
1t simply because she fell in love with
its beauty and taste and never paused
to consider whether 1t were suitable
TO her circumstances or not

Advantages OF Country For Working Girl


The girl who as bookkeeper. clerk,
stenographer, miIliner or teacher in her
village home receives a weekly salary
of five, six or seven dollars is far bet
ter off financially than the girl In the
same occupations In the city who gets
nine. ten or twelve dollars a week. In
the first place, the living expenses are
much smaller in the country than in
the clty-one gets very much more for
her money in the way of home COM
forts; the wear and tear of clothing is
much less. and as n rule the work less
harassing to the nerves. since there is
not the same hurry and rush. keeping
brain and nerves stretched to the
tightest possible tension, so that after
the days work is over one is too tired
to go in search OF enjoyment.
Working long hours at muscle-weary-
ing, brain-wearing, nerve-rasping
tasks in shops. offices, counting-rooms
and stores causes the city working girl
10 long for rest above everything else.
and In itself precludes the chances of
her making desirable outside acquaint-
ances except such as may be offered
through church affiliations. and even
these she is too tired TO improve.-Sal-

WORSE THAN DEATH HAS
BEEN THE SUFFERING

OF Mrs. Adam French Of Granite.
vile this county, for the past FIVE
years MIS-. Adam French has been
gradually losing flesh: her disease and
great suffering has baffled the skill
Of five physicians The first
physician consulted said her trouble
was caused from neuralgia of the
stomach and bowels and treated her
for the same. After II weeks suffer
ing she consulted another physician
who said her trouble was female
weakness. The next two physicians
that she consulted both agree very
nearly that her disease was liver
complaint and an ulcereted stomach,
but failed to give her any relief. The
fifth physician said it was con-
sumption and that her left lung
was nearly gone and treated her for
the same. Still she found no relief
but Mrs. French is not woman to
give up
Hearing Of the many wonderful cures
almost daily being effected by DR.,
Morrow of No. 3 South Main S.,
Barre, VT, she "a Wednesday Nov.
81, went to the doctors office and in
turn was ushered into the doctors
private office. After telling the doc
tor of her suffering and what the
other doctors ha treated her 'or the
doctor smilingly said: The cause
Of your long suffering is a tape worm,
aud can give You some medicine
that will remove it in two hours. "
This was good news, and Mrs. French
took the medicine home and took it
the next forenoon according to direc'
tions ana done her days work as
usual and passed monster tape
worm, (head and ally as the doctor
predicted This is the Goth tape
worm the doctor has taken ia the last
five months.
Mrs. French is oyerjoyed with the
doctors treatment and says she is
glad that she has If und q physician
who knows the difference between
ri ralga of the stomach, Liver con-
plant, female disease, consumption
and tape worm. Mrs. French will
be glad to answer any questions in
regard to her case and this tape worm
with others can be seen at the doc.
tors office any time on office days,
which arr Mondays, Wednesdays and
Saturdays.
1t can be tru,hfully said that no
: physician ever came to Barre who has
wrought so many wonderful cures and
made so many friends as has DR.. Mer
row during the Iast FIVE mt nths.

audience at the Auditorium in Chicago

complete until Zionism was intrenched
In its own citadels in every land. The
head of the Christian Catholic church
did not say when or where he would
build his next city. Speaking of the
Chicago Zion city, he said that city
was to be the earthly counterpart of

would become the seat of the new the

The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1901-03-06

The labor problem is at the bottom OF
some of the greatest Of the troubles
which nations have. 1t is at the bot
tom of the troubles in China. If it had
not been for the fear that the introduce
tlon of labor-saving machinery would de-
prive vast number OF the people of the
means OF earning living it is probable
that there would have been no Boxers.
There would have been, no doubt. discon-
tent arising out OF other things. For
instance. the missionaries were the
source of irritation and the demands of
Germany and other European nations for
concessions of land caused ill-feeling
against foreigners, but the chances are
that the Boxer movement would not have
prehension arising out of the introduction
of labor-saving machinery.
And is not the labor problem at the
bottom of the Industrial decadence that
is beginning TO be noticeable In England?
English manufacturers are realizing that
the trades Unions are blighting the coun-
trys industries. England is losing her
markets for the products of her factories
because her laboring people insist upon
conditions which make it impossible for
her manufacturers to compete with those
of other countries Her workmen have
laws which permit them TO work only
eight hours a day. A workman cannot
work overtime if he desires to. not even
for greatly increased wages. An engin-
eer. although able to attend to three or
four machines, is allowed to attend to
only one. There arc many restrictions of
this kind which bring up the cost of
manufacturing to a point much above
that of this country and some other coun-
tries. These regulations of the British
workmen are made with the view of af-
fording work for all at living wages. In
other words, their purpose is the same
as that of the Boxers in China.
In England, a workman is permitted to
do only a certain amount of work so that
there will be employment for all. In
China the Boxers object TO labor-saving
machinery because it will deprive a
portion of the toilers of the means of
earning a livelihood. If British workmen
persist in their course they will soon be
in a worse plight than the toilers of
China.
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1901-03-06

In the Washington dispatches of some
OF the administration papers of the issue
of March there is a statement that the
President was considering the advisa-
bility Of Vetoing the river and harbor
bill If 1t should be passed. The Inference
to be drawn from that statement is that
the President and the leaders of his par
ty had practically come to the conclusion
10 defeat the river and harbor bill, either
by having it talked to death or by veto.
II Senator Carter had not talked the
bill to death the chances are that The
President would have vetoed 1t. Senator
Carter saved the President from the
pressure that would have been brought
to bear upon him to sign the bill if it had
been passed.
1t is not known Of course that thera
was any definite understanding between
the President and Senator Carter. The
probability is there wasn't. But Senator
Carter knew the sentiments of the Pres
ident and the Republican leaders res
pecting the bill, and he took it upon him
self to defeat it. 1t may be that he ex-
pected to earn a reward of some sort by
this service. His senatorial term came
to an end with the expiration of the last
Congress, and il is by no means certain
that he will be reelected. The chances
are, therefore. that he will be an ex-
senator out of job unless the President
provides for him.
The reasons given why the President
and the Republican leaders wanted the
bill defeated are that the appropriations
are so large that there is great danger
that the revenues will not be sufficient
to meet the expenses of the government.
especially as the revenues have been re-
duced about $40,0Oo,OOO. A deficiency grow
ing out of extravagant appropriations
would greatly injure the popularity OF
the Republican party.
Another reason of the President for hav-
ing the bill killed was that it carried an
appropriation for retaining arid lands
in the West. The amount for that pur-
pose was small, but If the appropriations
were once begun they would amount to
hundreds of millions OF dollars before the
work was completed. The truth there
fore is probably that the river and har-
Dor bill failed because the President and
