A FEMININE PROTEST.

A Montgomery woman sends the toI- lowing which she writes because oI the following which appeared in The selma News in The Advertiser yesterday: be- cause they straddled their horses as they rode on theg streets of Selma this after noon. three girls, members of "The Run aways'' Company, which performed at the theatre in Selma tonight were arrested on charges of disorderly conduct. Later thev were released, the promise being given that they would, during their stay in Selma. abandon the clothespin style of eauestrianism." In little note ac- companying the protest, she refers to the fact that Alice Roosevelt, first young lady of our land, rides astride.
 She writes:
 "I have forgiven Selma many things although canot quite forget the tedious hours of waiting there for belated trains where there is seemingly little railroad connection with the outside world; have horne it's hotel accommodation with a patient shrug, and perhaps I might never hava lamented the failure of Selma to catch on to the advance thoughts furnish ed by her neighbors. but for statement of the Selma correspondent in this morn InR's Advertiser, which was to the effect that woman was arrested yesterday In Selma for sitting a horse properly, as men do.

der is they ever tried to sit any other way
 "I heard an old gentleman say not long ago that he would never lend his horse to lady to ride so long as she rode side ways, for all the weight of the rider, thrown to one side of the shoulder, had been prolific of great injury to horses
 "The gait of a fine saddle horse Is often utterly destroyed by his finding the weight where he did not expect to feel 1t; and his freedom of action is greatly interrupted, by the Iumpy weight clog ging his steps
 How many times have you heard it said of horse. He will not let a woman ride himT nor Is he much to blame, that Is if she rides as foolish women have done in the long ago, and as the Selma police admonishes.
 An 'ambling palfry' was once consid- cred the only beast suitable for the safety of woman for riding if she did not sit, as Lady Teasel was accused of doing, behind the butler.
 "As for safety to the amateur horse- woman there Is none, If the horse runs away or becomes unruly, since the eouili- brium is so easily disturbed: and the balance once lost, the only foot avaiIa hIe (for the other Is crumped up over a bornl is fastened in the stirrup, and if sho falls, the tragedy ends with the woman dragged along the ground at the mercy of the hoofs of the animal
 ''The comfort of the woman herself Gas well as the horse) is increased by the astride position. Horseback exercIse ia often recommended to invalids but SO long as woman sits with every organ of her body in an unnatural position. quite out of place. the very circulation of her blood interfered with, let no one tell sick woman to ride horse.
 Tt Is not less modest to sit astride. The unseemly display of figure is forever effaced by the new bifurcated riding habit, which hangs gracefully down to the feet on each side. Indeed, there Is hardly @ more modest appearing garment worn by women than tine properly made up-to-dats riding dress. I can not understand how 1t could be considered more modest to have one leg than to have two.
 Let Selma give a better reason for ar resting women than that given yesterday.

WERE YOU EVER OFFERED
A CHANCE LIKE THIS?


Is a question put to the people OF
the country today who are afflicted
with Asthma, by the Milks' Emulsion
Co., Terre Haute, Indiana.
Their offer is without doubt an
exceptionally strong one, as they not
only agree to give you a written
guarantee, backed by your druggist.
that Milks' Emulsion will cure you Of
asthma, but in order to start you off
they offer to buy the first bottle
from your own druggist and give it
to you free of charge. All you have to
do is write them, giving the particu-
lars Of your case.
Heretofore asthma has been cons
sidered almost incurable, but the dis
covery Of Milks' Emulsion has con-
WINGED physicians all over the country
as well as Asthma sufferers that
Asthma is no longer on the dreaded
list.
Few men have done more for suffer-
ing humanity than the discoverer Of
Milks' Emulsion. Only those who
have suffered with Asthma for years
can appreciate what the discovery Of
Milks' Emulsion has done for suffer-
ing humanity.-125 ID.
