UNEMANCIP4TED.

Mrs. Samuel Smartwood lives near
 Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania. She is not
 new woman. and she isn't clamor-
 ing for emancipation, the privilege of voting, or even the privilege of a smok-
 ing room. The fact is, she has been
 and is too busy to give much thought
 to the wrongs of her downtrodden sex. She was married when she was 14 years old and is now the mother of twenty nine children. But busy as she is she has found time lately to talk little about what many of her suffering sis ters would call her sad condition. She doesn't seem to find 1t sad. She thus ad- dresses herself to women Work hard and be always cheerful. Be mistress of your house Remember that the most glorious responsibility in the world is to be mother. Do not be afraid of having children. I never regretted the birth of one of mine. The loneliest wo- man in the world is the childless wife. Do not mind what furniture you have if you can fill the house with children. Clothes go long way in our family and no garment is useless unless there is not enough left for the baby. Lots of air, lots of sunlight, lots of food, and lots of love are good for children.
 Of course Sister Smartwood is "a poor crltter" compared with some of the noble and childless women who are going around giving advice to other women that will enable them to live higher lives but her remarks are inter esting. She talks as if she were req sonably happy, but how can she be with 29 children and the rather vulgar idea that it is glorious to be a good mother?

The natural gas supply In the sec tion of Indiana around Muneie is grad ually becoming exhausted. The Nun cie Natural Gas Company has notified the city council that after October next it will cease to furnish fuel gas for domestic uses. This means that the company will abandon the natural gas field and devote itself hereafter to gas for Eliminating purposes only. This latter will be manufactured by one of the well known processes, large plant having been erected by the company. The company claims that owing to the scarcity of gas more pumps are re- quired, and that these are very expen- sive. As the rate now paid will not permit of purchase of new machinery. the company goes out of the fuel gas business

to permit him to treat those lepers uni der the care of the board. President Sloggett, of the board, when asked as to this, said 'The board of heeIth ot Hawaii has invariably turned down re- quests to be allowed to experiment with leprosy cures We have done this be- cause the owners of cures were invaria- bly, proprietors of patent nostrums, who hoped to sell their manufactures by getting the indorsement of the board. We of course, would be pleased to see the discovery of some cure of leprosy, but l doubt that any such cure will ever be found. l have no faith in the tua-tua remedy"
 The newspapers of Honolulu have taken the matter up, and in vigorous terms have urged that the board of health give Dr. Camp every opportuni- ty for investigating the merits of the tua-tua. Certainly with more than one thousand lepers In confinement in the islands it is worth while doing every thing possible to find a check for the terrible scourge.--San Francisco Chron- icle.

The Pan American Exposition was well and beautifully lighted, but 1t is probable that the St. Louis Exposition will be even better lighted than was the Buffalo show, A new light has just Tbeen experimented with in St. Louis, and it will soon be submitted to the Ex- position company. The machine is ap- parently of simple construction. There is a tower some twelve feet in height, with four legs standing six feet apart at the base and nearly meeting at the top. These legs support tube which rises a little higher than the tower and is based on a small gasoline engine An infamma be fluid, probably little unlike gasoline, is forced through the tube and rises in an infinitesimal stream several feet above the mouth of the tube. It is forced upward with considerable force. When ignited the flame rises five or six feet and becomes as large S barrel. The light is nearly pure white is we'll sustained and has a great Illuminating power. The test was quite successful, although a stiff wind interfered with the steadiness of the flame to some ex- tent It is claimed that the power can be increased so that the flame may bs sent upward fifty feet, and that on a eamer night the illumination will be more than approximately greater.
 That ought to make a good light for cago wouldn't be willing to admit that it could get light from St. Louis,

There Is quite a lively discussion of the important question, What consti- tutes a gentleman? A New York so-
 ciety woman recently asserted that no
 man can be a gentleman who has not
 had college education. This assertion
 is disputed by Mark Twain who
 thinks that man may be a gentle
 man even if he hasn't been under the
 refining influence of a college. It is
 also disputed by Mile. Lucie Felix
 Faure, of Paris Mile. Faure is the
 daughter of the late President of
 France and ought to know a gentle
 man when she meets one. College
 education,' she observes, has nothing
 to do with the question. It is within
 the range of possibility that a Mont
 martre cabman may be more of gen
 The best description of a gentleman
 is Cardinal Newman's: A gentleman
 makes himself agreeable to all; never attracts attention, is never loud, never hurts others feelings, is usually gener- ous and is always just, To know how
 to bow and scrape," adds Mile Faure
 is useful in it's way, but lowing and scraping are merely mechanical arts"
 It is strange how disputants in such a debate will sometimes completely miss the main point. We would respect fully inquire, How can man possibly be a gentleman unless he is town born? If this inquiry seems narrow or irrelevant to any we shall simply shut them up by saying that as they don't live in New Haven they can't be sup posed to know what every New Ha- vener knows. A gentleman is one who is town-born. That is essential After that has been achieved he should be able to take part in polite conversation by grunting at the proper time, he should continually and consist ently look down on his inferiors." he should faithfully the high standard of thought and conduct set by his distinguished ancestors, and he should be able to live and die without ever mistrusting that he is not a gentleman. This it is to be q real gentleman. We don't think a col lege education is much needed by such a real gentleman, nor do we think that it would do him much good

Socialism fourishes in Germany. In 1877 the socialists cast 493, 1000 votes at the Reichstag elections, as against the Center's 1,341.00O, and against the Ma tional Liberals 1,46S,000. In 1878 and lS79 owing to Bismarcks oppressive measures, the socialist vote dropped to 312,000. But from that time until the last general election, that of 1898, the socialist vote rose steadily. The social ists to-day are in point of numbers by far the largest party, and at the next general election they will reach the 2,500,000 mark, and possibly exceed it.

GOOD WORK.

| We haven't yet done for Cuba all that
 we promised to, and perhaps we shall rot, but we have done much for her in making Havana fit place to live in The army took charge of the health de partment of Havana when deaths were occurring at the rate of 21,252 per year, It gives it up with deaths occurring at the rate of 5,720 per year. It took charge with smallpox epidemic for years. It gives it up with not a single case haY- ing occurred in the city for over eigh- teen months. It took charge with vel low fever epidemic for two centuries, It found Havana feared as a thing un- clean by all her neighbors of the United States, and quarantined against as too dangerous to touch, or even to come near anything that she had touched, to the untold financial loss of both Ha- vana and the United States. The army has stamped out this disease in its greatest stronghoId-there having been only five deaths in the last nine months of the past year. and no deaths and no cases during the last three months of the same year; and it has demonstrated a system by which yellow fever can be certainly controlled without interfer- enee with commerce.
 Good work. When Cuba complains that trade isn't free enough for her we can blow about the protection from dis ease we gave her.

What is Said of the Experiments With
 the South American Plant.

What is Said of the Experiments With
 the South American Plant. ! Medical men all over the world are 1 interested in the reports from Honolulu and Tahiti of successful results obtained 1 in the treatment of leprosy from the ac- | tive principle of the tua-tua shrub. | The tua-tuas scientific name is Jatra- pha goessyplfolia, and it comes from Venezuela. Nearly three years ago the department of agriculture sent twenty seven of the tua-tua plants to Dr. Car | michael, United States Marine hospital surgeon, then at Honolulu, but now here. The plants were set out in the experiment station grounds in Honolu- lu where they flourished, waxed green and produced many buds. With the plants came statements from Venezue la that leprosy had been successfully treated with the extract. The shrub is called in Venezuela fralleion purgo on account of it's purging qualities. pr. c. E. Camp, assistant in the bac- astrological laboratory of the board of health Of Hawaii, has been experiment. ing on lepers in Honolulu ever since the
 
 of the medicine is to reduce the fright full swellings which dsfigure the fea- lures of the lepers, and which dstort their eXtremities.
 In Tahiti really wonderful advance toward the cure of leprosy has been achieved by the use of the shrub, but in Hawaii it has been difficult to induce the lepers to undergo the treatment. The use of the medicine is generally ac- companied by severe colics, and the Kanakas will not submit to the pain even though a promise is held out of a partial cure of their terrible aff1Ction The fact Is that leprosv among the Ha- waiians Is not looked upon with the horror that it possesses for Americans and Europeans, and save for the sola- tion on Molokai, which leprosy entails upon it's victims, the latter show little disposition to do anything to ameliorate their physical condition. The lepers are free to accept or refuse treatment, and cannot be forced to take the medi- cine. A Portuguese in Honolulu, who had leprosy, was given the tua-tua, and, according to pr. Camp, shows ab- solutely no symptoms of the disease now.
 Curiously enough the board of health of Hawaii is seemingly unwilling to aid pr. Camp in his experiments, or even
