Among other things to which the
twentieth century will point with pride
will be the improved physical status OF
civilized women. The consumptive,
protected female heroine is already
rapidly giving place to the heroine who
can protect herself, Woman's physical
weakness is gigantic blunder to be
blamed not on the Creator, but on wo-
man herself and on man, who has en-
couraged her in it, While man has
moved heaven and earth to develop
and improve himself physically woman
has simply let herself slump along, llab-
by of muscle and growing llabbier.
Now the tide is the other way, the gods
be praised, and woman has discovered
she. too, has muscles and mind. 1t
was the great discovery of the nine
teenth century, and one great achieve
ment of the twentieth century will be
the development of these woman mus

 Birmingham, June 4.-Wheat-The ex- cftement in wheat yesterday and today has been increased owing to the rapid fluctuations. Early transactions were noted for awild opening at any way from 7S to 791a for July and 73 to 74h for Sep tember. The large holders were evidently the free sellers at the opening and the pressure of this long wheat carried values down about four cents per bushel. The weather may showed good rains through out the northwestern country, as well as through the southwest. and this aided some of the selling and created rather bearish sentiment. Clearances were large at S55, GOO bushels, and the past two days has equalled close to two million. Brad streets report showed a decrease in worlds visible supply of 31s million. To- ward the close a move on the part of those directly interested in July transac- tions caused a rapid upturn in that op- tion, closing the market steady at about l cent under previous close.
 Corn has been quiet and lower. Few rains throughout the corn belt, especially in Iowa and Nebraska, had a depressing effect on values, and although there was some little cash demand, this fact was ignored and the scenery proposition looked at Our stocks at present in Chicago are no over ten million bushels, and this is quite an argument in the minds of the bears. Liverpool cables closed half lower.
