had taken the courses of study at Cam bridge and Oxford obtained their A. M. and other degrees from Trinity and London.
 And that has brought into the uni versity status of woman ano .her curl ous and interesting question.
 The older universities of Great Britain have each the right to elect a member of parliament. These univer- stiles are Oxford. Cambridge. Dublin. London. Edinburgh, Glasgow. Aberdeen and St. Andrews. the last named being the one of which Andrew Carnegie is lord recton The ancient charters of these institutions empowered their gov erning bodies to choose members of parliament because of the high intel lectual standard of the said governing bodies.
 There were no women university graduates when these charters were granted and no thought was taken whether there ever would be. wo- man university doctor? A woman fly ing to the moon!
 The charters declared that the uni versity governing boards might choose each of them a member of parliament. Now come hundreds of women A. B. and A. Ms who have been admitted without question to sit In the govern
  grees, claim also the right to vote for the university representative In parlia- ment. The charter says distinctly, they argue. that members of governing councils have the right to vote for the parliamentary representative; they. the women, have equal voice with men In these councils. therefore they have also the parliamentary suffrage But in none of the universities named were the voting papers sent to women mem bers of the councils, showing that the men members do not consider the la- dies entitled to vote.
 A number of women members of the general council of the Scottish univer- sities. women who are graduates in medicine and the arts and sciences. have brought suit before Lord Salve- son in the court of session to obtain an order that the parliamentary voting list be sent to them. on the ground that they fill every requirement demanded by the university charters The case is attracting no little attention in Eng land.

CATARRH FROM CHILDHOOD
Cured By Hyomei, the Only Medicine for Catarrh That E. q. Fowler is
 Willing to Guarantee.

The popularity and growth of Hyo- mel are unique in the annals of medi- cine. The demand for Hyomei outfit and the extra bottles in Montgomery has been something phenominal, and MT. Fowler says that he never sold any other remedy which gave such univer- sal satisfaction and making so many remarkable cures.
 Tth fast that Hyomei cures catarrh in the only natural and sensible way, that is, through breathing medicated air. not by taking drugs into the stomach, no doubt has helped in the introduction of the treatment. There Is certainly no other remedy for catarrhal diseases that is so effectual as Hyomei, and its discovery has realized in part Pasteur's prophecy. We shall one day rid the world of all diseases that are caused by germs"
 The worst and most chronic cases of catarrh readily yield to the use of Fly omei. People who have suffered from childhood have been cured by this rem edy. J. $. Nugent. treasurer of the American Union Insurance Company, New York City. writes: 'Hyomei has completely cured my daughter of ca tarrh, from which she had been suffer ing for years.
 So many remarkable results have all tended the use of Hyomei amongst the customers of F. c. Fowler that he feels justified in using t:ie strongest possi- ble language in speaking of It's vir- tues, and when you read that he sells it under an absolute guarantee to re- fund the money if 1t does not cure. you will see that he fully believes in its curative powers. A complete outfit costs only one dollar, extra bottles 50 cents.
 If not convenient to obtain Hyomei of F. G. Fowler. or some other druggist it will be forwarded from the laboratory by mail on receipts of price. The T. Booth Co.,, Hyomei Building. Ithaca. N. Y.

Whose Say-so Is Best?

Dr. Pierce's medicines, how ever, form a single and therefore striking exception to this rule. Their claims to the confidence of fnvalids does not rest solely upon their makers say so or praise. Their ingredients are matters of public knowledge, being printed on each separate bottle wrapper. Thus invalid sufferers are taken into Dr. Pierce's full confidence. Scores of leading medical men have written enough to fill volumes in praise of the curative value of the several Ingredients entering into these well known medicines.

REOPEN BIG WILL CASE
GREEN BAY NAN LEAVES ASYLUM
TO START CONTEST.
Insane from Worry Over Loss OF Share
IN $4,000 inheritance Left in
California

GREEN BAY, Wis. April SO
Especial. Elmer E. W. Britton of this
city has retained attorneys in Chica go
and Los Angeles, Cal, to institute an
action for the reopening of the will of
his father, David W. Britton, formerly
a wealthy factory owner in Green Bay,
who died at Alham bra, Cal, in August
1901, leaving his only son $1,000 out of
an estate valued at S1S0O00, the ne
malnder going to the contestants step
mother. Brltton's fourth and only living
wife. She was made eXecutrix without
bond.
Among the allegations made by the
son IS claim that his father was I'M
duly influenced by the wife in executing
the Will; that he was not mentally COM
petent when the instrument was drawn:
that he is entitled to inherit as the heir
OF his mother, the testators second wife.
Ihe estate is alleged to have greatly
qeprecI2fed IN value since the death OF
David W. Britton. With his wife and
her daughter and step-son. Mr.. and Mrs.
Victor j. Salak, he moved from Green
Bay to A!hambra in the spring of 1904
and settled on a large fruit ranch.
1t IS claimed that his property was
sold at great sacrifice after his death
and similar claim is made relative to
tine residence property in Los Angeles.
Mrs. Britton, ST., several months ago
purchased much property in San Fran
cisco and recently settled there. She is
believed to have been a heavy loser in
the recent disaster.
The delay in startiT 3 the present suit
is explained by the fact that the son
was committed soon after his fathers
death to the state asylum at Oshkosh,
being discharged only few months ago.
1t is declared that his insanity was due
to worry over the will.
