IN MEMORY OF HIS WIFE
Made Him All That He is, Says Con-
 1ressman Davis.

A Washington dispatch says: A peau- tiful tribute to the memory Of his dead wife appears in the autobiographicai sketch of Congressman Davis Of rfor- ida, In the new edition of the Congress sional Directory So unusual is ref erence of this kind in the directory that 1t has attracted general attention The sketch of Judge Davis says:
 Before reaching his majority he was married to Miss Peter Mercer, and to her influence is due whatever of success he has attained"
 When questioned about the sentence quoted above Judge Davis said: All that I have in life owe to my wife. We were married when both of us were very young-neither being of lawful age. Poor as the old church mouse, we battled to- gether against the waves of adversity, my wife constantly lending her aid to as- sist and to cheer me when the clouds seemed dar<est. As the years rolled on and on, she was ever my able assistant. spurring me on to greater efforts and broader achievements. The modest little that I ever accomplished in life is due to her untiring energy, her constant devo- penetrate into the darkness and despair and see good in everything. Acknowledge ment of her material assistance to me in my career comes a little late, 1t seems to me now-it should have been publicly made during her lifetime. My only object in mentioning her help to me in the di- rectory was to pays modest tribute to her sweet memory.

 General Agents Montgomery, Birmingham and Mobile,

Glasgow have decided upon a crusade against the Employment of women in drinking bars. Any success in this dir sc- tion would be another feather in the cap Of city already known all over the world as model of what a municipality should be. And the proposal has the advantage that, as a piece of practical public house reform, 1t may well unite all sections Of the movement against the curse of drink. The evils springing from this one source are obvious. In addition to the direct danger of men. women and children arising from it there are others less direct; and of these the stationing of young women in a public house bar Is one of the most serious. There are few places in which more temptation Is thrown in the way of girls. There are few places in which the surroundings are more degrading, the atmosphere more insidious, the allurements more constant Drunkenness resorts continually to the pubiic house: blackguardism is const antlY there, and there Is no escape from one or the other. People of both sexes who never come into the lives of women oth- erwise employed are always in and out or the public house; sights are wit messed and words are used that soon break down the strongest self-respect. And to any one inclined to face facts the reasons why women are employed for this work are obvious enough. They con- stitute an attraction; they are chosen for the purpose-the thing cannot seriously be denied. For an example, in this re- spect we have only to look to a com munity from which we are already learn ing some other lessons of national im- portance. In the United States. whore the position of women is higher than anywhere in the world, 1t is. we believe, almost everywhere the law that no Wo- man may be a bartender. American leg- islation is not at all points a model for the imitation of more ancient and set tied State. but nothing that is not good can possibly result from such a regulation AS this.

WOMEN AND THEIR WORK.

 Consistency is too much to ask Of one person, not to say of bodies or people, ana therefore no one should be surpflseo tt ifs lack still, when public opinion, roused to the enormitieS of some crying eVil, strives to abate it, 1t seems strange that there is always loud-Nolced ana per sistent class who rise to its detence IaKe the case of Glasgow barmalds For the last twenty years and more the novelist and short-storv writer, not to mention the clergyIslen and moralizers, nave palnted the tempt tatUnst the oVerWork' loiis hours. and no daffs off of the oarmald not the Glasgow barmaid in particular, hut all barmaids.

But now the clty mas tstrates of Glasgow have passed an or Cfinance forbidding the employment or women as attendants in drinking bars, and London papers, and presumably the Scottish nresS, are inundated with papers lamenting the injustice of turning ouc of employment d deserving class or young women. No one would dispute that there are many well-disposed bar maids, but surely every one should re- ioice that the law at last dscourages so base an employment. One correspondent thinks that. instead of rejoicing at the dismissal of Glasgow barmaids, we ought rather to deplore the existence of places of public resort so badly conducted as to render the presence of women unde- sirahle."

The Universal Heart.

The Era.
 Since hoary-headed Time was young; Since Art and Music found a tongue; Since the first rose. with dew impearled. This heart has throbbed through all the
 world.
 It bleeds for freedom and for love = Dreams of beatitudes above And yearns with everlasting pain For those who never come again.. It thrills to genius and to worth, Yet loves the lowIiest thing on Earth Is scared with sin, and rent by grief, And stripped of bloom like autumn's leaf. Coeval with the rolling spheres, It holds the burden Of the years, And beats like pulses of the sea, This great heart of Humanity.
