A Warming to Mothers.

Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot weather
of the summer months to guard
AGAINST bowel troubles. AS rule 1t
is only necessary to give the child
dose of castor oil to correct any dis
order of the bowels. Do not use any
substitute, but give the oldfashloned
castor oil, and see that it is fresh, as
rancid oil nauseates and has a tenden-
~ to grippe. If this does not check
the bowels give Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and
then a dose of castor oil, and the dis
e o NAV be checked in its incipiency
and ali danger avoided. The castor

od at once and kept ready for instant
ecu, CO a az soon as the first indication OF

THE LEGISLATIVE PROBLEM
The Clerkship Matter May or May not
 Be Settled Today.

The legislature will reconvene this morning at Il o'clock. The subject up permost in the minds of the democratic members is that of the clerkships. It was learned last nfght.that nothing had been definitely agreed upon and it was said that there was an opinion held by most of them that since they cannot break the record for extravaganza in the matter of attaches they should es- tablish a record for economy.
 The member who feels most, az grieved at the turn affairs have taken, and he is not less aggrieved than the clerks themselves who are apprehen- sive of losing the places to which they had been appointed, is Councilman Roemer. It is not yet forgotten that a week ago Mir. Roemer abandoned an equal light for the presidency of the council in consideration of being allow ed the most of the patronage of that branch of the legislature. It was un- derstoOd at that time that the legis- lature was going to establish a high record. MT. ROemer now feels like a man who is going to be paid in a Ge- preciated currency.
 It was thought by some last night that inasmuch as the legislature will adjourn next Friday for the visits to the territorial institutions, it might be better to let the clerkship business go over until the visiting committees re- turn for there will be little done requir- Ing the services of clerks until after that time. On the other hand there is a sentiment among some of the demo- cratic members that the whole affair ought to be settled today. MT. Wilson of Pima announced on Friday that he hi morning on the general subject Of clerkships. The trend of MT. Wilson's observations on this exciting theme are so accurately forecast by the demo- crats that they would like to have the subject disposed of without debate. MT. Wilson left for Tucson Friday night and a study by the democrats of the railroad schedules does not disclose to the democrats how he can get back before this evening. The clerSship matter may therefore be hurried today.
 So far MT. Wilson has restrained himself with apparent difficulty. He sits in his seat but he is all the time viewed with apprehension by his demo- cratic colleagues for they see in his countenance evidence of disapproval which is liable any time to find oratori- cal outlet. He has at times spoken brief ly on the subject of the clerkships and the clerks in consequence do not look upon him as their friend.
 On Friday afternoon Judge Neville to the committee on rules that the hour for assembling should be eleven o'clock in order that the com mittees would have time to work. MT. Wilson arose to say that he concurred in the views of Judge Neville. A clerk "Something's going to hap pen; that's the first time anybody ever heard Wilson concur in anything"

Where Hay lien Smoke |?

Good, kind Mrs. Sangster the most considerate of all possibly considerate women, has submitted. according to the Chicago Evening Post, an attempt ed solution of the vexatious problem. where may men smoke? Personally. we dare say, the good lady is opposed to smoking as a useless expense and a foolish habit more honored in the breach than in the observance. But she has come to realize that men differ in vtciousness only in degree, and while. smoking is vicious as well as per nicious, it is comparatively a small vice and may be tolerated if the smok- CT is fully grown and betrays only the usual results of such dissipation
 It is Mrs. Sangster's opinion, based on the experience of a married woman and the observation of a lifetime. that man Is entitled to certain privileges in his own house, and that the average man of family has only a few priv ileges. She recognizes the fact that no perfect gentleman would think of smoking up his wife's parlor curtains, of invading her private room with pipe or cigar if tobacco is offensive to her. or of perfuming any apartment where she would be likely to wish to remain. At the same time she takes the broad general view that the head of the house should not be driven to the back steps or to the carriage house when ever he wishes to enjoy the solace of the weed; hence she recommends that every smoking husband should have his own little den to which he may retire and puff away when the tobacco curse assails him with irresistible vigor.
 This is by no means a novel sugges- tion or a startling one, but it exhibits the thoughtfulness of Mrs. Sangster and the value of her contributions to the daily press. For it must be re- membered that the lady is speaking of such homes as are dominated entirely by petticoat tyranny and is not taking into account the broad, progressive feminine spirit which has revolution ized society since Mrs. Sangster first noted the tobacco habit. We shall not pretend to say how many men smoke in their own homes wherever they please and whenever they please, all though their name is legion. for Mrs. Sangster seems to be calling not the sinners, but the righteous, to repent ance. The mere fact that the lady is bestirring herself and become earnest ly interested in the few downtrodden heads of families who have not even den wherein tolay their pipes speaks volumes for the great work of Chris tian charity.
 So we think it safe to accept Mrs. Sangster's last word that men may smoke in the little den set apart for that purpose with the same. careful provision that has established faithful Fido's kennel, as well as in such other places as may be allowed by family discipline. Thus a matter of moment
