Growth of Day Nurseries.

One of the significant facts of city
life is the growth of the day nurseries.
They have grown at the rate of 200
per cent in the last five or six years.
Originally intended for the babies of
widows, it is found that 30 per cent
of the children in day nurseries have
both parents living. The mother is
obliged to go out TO work because of
one of three or four reasOns-her hus-
band is out of work, he is i'll of con-
sumption or rheumatism and cannot
work or he is dissipated.
Even with the rapid increase in the
number of day nurseries there is al
ways a surplus OF applicants. Whether
this indicates that more and more mar
ried women are becoming wage earners
as we'll as housekeeperS, whether it
means that more and more fathers can
not support their families or that they
are losing their sense of responsibility
in the matter and don't try, are inter
esting questions. In Paris the day
nursery is n part of the state school
system. In this country, however
there is a strong sentiment against the
employment of married women outside
the home which would probably stand
in the way of such an arrangement in
American cities.-Harper's Bazaar.

PASSING OF A GREAT MAN.

In the passing of Gen. Benjamin
Harrison the nation has lost one of it's
greatest men. No more signih-
cant expression as to his stand
ing could be made than that of Gen.
Lew Wallace, who said last night that
10 days ago he was the foremost man
of the nation. That he was a bigger
man than his party is a tribute that
well may be paid to him politically,
and it was doubtless this thought that
suggested Gen. Wallace's remark.
Gen. Harrison stood apart from the
latter day tendency of the republican
party, not only in the strange de-
parture that has been taken at Wash
ington from the right principles in
the matter of dealing with Porto Rico,
the Philippines and Cuba, but in the
shameful Indifference this government
has shown to the struggling sister re-
publics in South Africa. His heart
ached for the Beers and while the
delicacy of his position as an expires
ident imposed silence as far as mo-
mentous questions were concerned,
how deeply he deplored the fate of
the Beers was shown evea in his de-
lirium, when they were uppermost in
his mind.
Gen. Harrison was of the best
school of American craftsmanship,
and his death will be universally re-
garded as untimely. In his famous
career of useful activity he proved a
man of high thought, firmness of pur-
pose and splendid ability. AS soldier
or statesman he equally distinguished
himself. He ranked high as an ora
tor and in his every Characteristic
was a man in whom his countrymen
might well repose pride end conf
dence.

YATES IMPENDIN9 PERIL.

There are some indications that the
Chicago Times-Herald, which was the
persistent foe of Gov. Tanner through
his entire administration, may be pre-
pairing to assume the same attitude
toward Gov. Yates. In q recent edi-
torial, after mildly admonishing the
governor against dabbling in federal
politics and calling his attention 10
the imP ortance of state matters, the
Times-Herald says:
when Mr.. Yates was candidate
he promised the people of Chicago
that he would put the park systems
of this city on a business basis. The
prompt fulfllment of this pledge
more nearly concerns his honor and
the success of his administration
than the getting of half a hundred
places for his political friends and
retainers.
''It is expected that the governor
will begin to make his appointments
next week, and one of the first tests
of his purpose and independence to
carry out his campaign professions
will'come with the naming of the rail-
road and warehouse commissioners.
Ex-Congressman Lorimer is reported
as pulling every string attached to
the repu blican machines to retain the
notorious Joseph E. Bidwell rs men,
Der of the commission. BidwilPs ap-
pointment by Tanner was one of the
first acts to indicate the insolent dis
regard of decency that was to render
his administration Kissing, and re-
proach throughout the country.
"We can not believe that Gov. Yates
will Bidwillize his administration at
the outset, even to court the favor of
the Cook county boss.
cit will be good thing for the gov
ernor if his rebuff in Washington has
the effect of making him devote HIM
self with more singleness of purpose
to the affairs of Illinois,

The new United States senator
from Montana was elected by the
legislature three and one-half hours
after the constitutional limit of its
session had expired. Nevertheless,
according to the clock, whose hands
were turned back, the election was
within the constitutional limit. AS
congress has frequently reversed the
clock to prolong the session beyond
the constitutional limit on the 4th of
March, the senate committee nor the
senate itself is likely seriously to
question the regularity of the Mon
Jana election.

A King for America.

1t may be a surprise to learn that there are
enough Americans in this country with mon
archial beliefs to warrant the publication of a
magazine, the first number of which has Just
been issued in the east. This pretense is as
ridiculous as that made by the various bogus
stomach remedies which spring up, claiming
to be the only cure for dyspepsia and indiges-
ton. The only real king of all stomach RENE
dies is Hostetters Stomach Bitters 1t is
founded on true merit, and it must be very
bad case of Indigestion, constipation, bilious
ness liver and kidney trouble, which it viii not
cure. Try 1t also for insomnia, and as spring
purifier and preventive for malaria, fever and
ague, 1t has no equal.
