and it is his privilege TO accompany
her on her walks, though of course al.

seldom ends in his becoming engaged

WOMEN IN THE JURY BON.

w NoMEN IN l1E u = DUN.
: From the time the franchise was
granted to the women of Wyominl
Territory, during all it's early de
velopment women served on grand
and petit juries. Chief Justice Howe
of the Territory said In 1872: "After
the Grand Jury has been in session
two days the dance house keepers
gamblers and 'off.color' people gcner
ally fled out of the Territory to escape
the indictment of women jurors.
have never, in twenty-five years cx.
perlence in the courts of the country,
seen n more faithful and rcsolutely
honest grand and petit jury than
these" During the many years that
Howe was Chief Justice he constantly
summoned women as jurors and re.
peatedly gave the strongest testimony
as to their efficiency. In compiling
the first volume of the laws Of Wyo.
ming, Secretary and Acting. Governor
Edward NJ. Lee quoted Il former GOV.
ernor as saying: The only dissenting
voices against woman suffrage have
been those of convlctS tried and found
guilty by women jurors" And he
odds: Women exercised the right
of jurors and contributed 10 the speedy
release of the Territory from the re.
gime of pistol and bowie knife They
not only performed their new duties
without losing any of the womanly
virtues, and with dignity and decorum
but good results were Immediately
seen."
Attorney General NJ. c. Brown said
In a public letter: II have been asked
If women make good jurors. and
answer by saying that as n lawyer
find but little fault with them.
They see the truth OF q thing at a
glance, and, their minds once settled
neither sophistry, logic, rhetoric
pleading nor tears will move them
from their purpose. A guilty person
never escapes just punishment when
tried by women jurors"
Much more evidence of the highest
character might be submitted show
ing tshe efficiency of women Jurors in
Wyoming, where the experiment had
its most thorough trial. The best
women in the Territory served and
they were treated with the greatest
respect. The successor OF Chief Jus
tice Howe had prejudice against
women in this position. and none were
summoned by him. AS the population
increased and life became more com
rlex, women were absorbed in other
occupations; the juries are made up of
the tax lists. which do not contain
n large proportion of women; they
were not anxious to serve, and so the
custom Of summoning women has fall
en- into disuse, but there never has
been any decision against 1t. and they
are still occasionally called In special
cases.-National Magazine.

Seven years ago my wife commenced
having spasms or fits and | called in my

gave her calomel and she eventually got
some better, but in a short time she had
another attack. She was confined to her
bed for three months and the doctor could
not help her. She lad fits frequently, some
times very severe. Her hands would cramp
