If the woman at work should make
answer to the other woman, she might,
perhaps, say "You e had to scrub
and clean when your back ached so that
it seemed that every movement would
break it in two" It's bad enough for a
woman to suffer. But when she must
suffer and slave at the same time she
reaches the limit of her endurance.

French overran nearly all Spain. With

Rural New Yorker writer in preface to
the following:
Fig. 1 is a copy l have made Of a
sketch of the cross section of some
pillow burrows illustrated in a recent
issue of an agricultural paper.
This was intended to show how some
plows turned a furrOw at too steep an
angle. In reality no pillow turns such
a steep furrow in actual use. 1t is i'm
possible to turn such burrows in ordi-
nary blowing, and the sketch is sim
ply a monstrosity or freak of the mag
inat1on Of the writer or artist. Stiff

most stand on edge, as the figure indi-
Gates, provided the pillow is adjusted to
cut a narrow, deep furrow. But the

blowing was ever performed"

The moldboard in lifting and turning

shows.
The whole process loosens and aer-
ates the burrows and leaves them in
fine condition for further operation
thereon by means of the harrow and
roller. The ideal soil for manipulation
with these tools is a clay loan with a
slight admixture Of sand.

he carried so far as to become a good
fiddler, but gave it up when he became
engrossed in military affairs. The

In youth Arthur Wellesley was awk-
ward and mo ladies' man." He didn't
drink, never smoked but one cigar, and
him, and early got a lesson in gam
bling which lasted for a lifetime. AS a
cadet he worked hard and, being a
sprig of the aristocracy, got on rapidly.
Later in life he deplored the system Of
purchase, but confessed that the army
Of England could not get or without it.
He said that the only claim should be
military merit. At twenty-five he was

ton that he would become a leader of
men.

Wellesley got a glimpse Of the evils Of

ed" he said. In the days when he was
learning to be a soldier and a general
the first thing in his thought was the
performance of duty TO his country and
the next to maintain the reputation Of
an English gentleman. Bribery he
hated and declared that the offer of it
was an insult to an English gentleman.
While general over a district in In
dia Wellesley laid down some naXimS
which he observed afterward in a lar
ger field. Food was everything. Said
he, IF | had bullocks, l had men, and
If l had men | knew | could beat the
enemy" He also declared, Thine is
everything" and In all great actions
there is risk" Once he made a sue
cessful attack without orders, and this
was not approved at headquarters, be-
cause 1t would establish an ''incon-
venient precedent" Shortly after he
was superseded, but he offered to serve
as a lieutenant to the new leader. In
his first battle he commanded the right
wing, and, being confronted with 3d.
600 Mahratta troops, with but 1900 ELL
ropeans and $500 natives he attacked
and, after two bayonet charges, drove
the enemy from the field. This was his
first independent battle, and in after
years he said it had been won chiefly
by the exercise of Common sense. He
must either attack or be destroyed.
He attacked and won what he describ-
ed as "the bloodiest battle, for the
numbers, / ever saw"
At the close of the M%ahratta war
Wellesley returned to England, but
was scarcely noticed. The government
had decided to take up the quarrel of
Spain and Portugal against Napoleon,
and the cabinet selected Lieutenant
General Wellesley for the command.

headquarters interfered. There he was

Becoming Il widow or a widower is a

in the Philippines. In Mindanao mar
rying in haste" often leads to a pro-
longed "repenting at leisure" for they
have an institution there known as, the
widow taX"-"chabaloan" the natives
call it. Upon the death of the wife the
widower must pay a certain sum OF
money or its equivalent in goods to his
father-in-law before he can go a-court-
ing again. AS money Is a scarce article
among these natives, the tax generally
Is paid in plates of common "stone CHI
ma" which are much used by the Ia
tives as a medium Of exchange. 1t Is
considered the proper thing for the be-
reaved one to pay 100 Of these plates to
his father-in-law for permission to look

Divorce is unknown among these peo-

that in case of an epidemic which
would sweep away his wives a married
man would be in dire extremity. In
the case of a death of a much married
man his parents come into a small for

slaves to render future work on their

Trial by Jury.

"The destructive influences of the
jury system upon morals and honor
are becoming more and more appar-
ent to thinking people, and even
judges are becoming disgusted with
the results Of jury trials, said Gen
eral Won Niemand at the Cincinnati
Bar Association meeting.
sin what way are juries destruc-
tive of morals and honor? Scarcely
a day passes without our hearing of
some miscreant who has escaped the
just penalty of his wrong doing by
appealing to a sympathetic jury.
The police court shyster has used
the jury for this purpose until the
police court jury has become a
stencil In the Dostrils of self-respect-
ing people. State criminal courts
have had experiences of this kind,
but for years the public has retain
ed sort of lingering hope that
juries in the United States courts
we're of higher type of men and
would, by their verdiots, support
that palladium of our liber ties by
dealing out considerate justice on
lines which would encourage the
highest type of honor among men.
But the destructive germ seems to
have at last infected jury of that
kind, and the worst feature of its
action is that it struck a blow at
honor itself by destroying a princi-
pie dearer to the American heart
than any written law of the land.
