Those Democrats. who are trying to
boom Governor Douglas of Massachu
sets FOR the presidential nomination of
their party in 1908. may get some en-
joyment out of the pastime, but they
will accomplish nothing. The Demo-
Gratis are doing very foolish things in
these times but they will hardly go to
such extremes of folly as to nominate
a New Englander for the presidency.
Moreover, Governor Douglas is alto
gether too conservative a man and too
much like Republican. in many re-
spects, to suit the radical Democrats
who will control their party in 1908.
These radicals allowed the conserva-
tive minority in their party to nomi-
nate man in 1904. and the result was
rot such as to encourage the nominal
ton of safe and sane" candidate in
1908. The Democratic nominee of that
year is more likely to be some man Of
the Bryan type. If not, indeed. Bryan
himself again.

The announcement that Carnegie is
to divide a few millions among the
small colleges of the country brings on,
the interesting fact that many of the
small colleges in the middle West are
afraid of being driven out of business
by the growing efficiency of the high
schools and by the courses offered by
the universities. There is no doubt
that the college" business has been
greatly overdone in that section of the
country and many of the so-called
colleges" and universities" too. for
that matter are of no higher standing
than the average high school or bust
ness college in this part of the country.
There is no danger that the extension
of the public school system or the
growth of the great universities will
ever drive out of business the small
colleges in New England and the mid
die states.

Turf, Farm and Home: We nave al
ready intimated to our readers that
the Legislature just adjourned treated
agricultural interests more nearly
with the consideration that they de-
serve than any legislature that has
ever assembled in our State. Not that
the legislators lavished money upon
every scheme which bore an agricul-
tural label, or one looking like that,
but with one or two minor exceptions.
which occurred very late in the session.
every proposition that bore the APP
prevail of the Committee on Agriculture
and was endorsed by the Commissioner
Of Agriculture, went through both
bodies and received the approval of
Governor Cobb without question. With
all the demands that were made on the
public treasury for money for every
conceivable purpose, it was no easy
matter to deny so many and grant
every request made by the friends Of
agriculture. But this was done, and it
should go to the credit of the Legisia-
ture just adjourned. The Committee
on Agriculture put in much solid work
and held long sessions two and three
days every week until the last few
weeks of adjournment. 1t goes with
out saying that they weighed every
proposition with. great care. but COM
posed as they were of practical. con-
sentative business men, they had no
difficulty in arriving at conclusions
that would and die receive the practi-
cal and unanimous approval Of & both
branches of the Legislature az well as
the executive. <a =

All women work; some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores

their daily bread.

laws: all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties. in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors Of all
kinds of female complaints. ovarian
troubles, liberation. falling and dis
placements OF the womb, leucorrhna,
or perhaps irregularity or suppression
Of monthly periods" causing back
ache, nervousness, irritability and
laSsitude.
Women who stand on their feet all
day are more susceptible to these
troubles than others.
They especially require an invigorut-

strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
OF the day, to sleep well at night, and
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see woman
struggling to earn a livelihood or per-
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is so
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin OF which is due to
some arrangement of the female or
