THEY NOW AGREE.
Will Be No Opposition to Disposition
of Mrs. Eddy's Property.

Concord, n. H., April 3.-Counsel for the
petitioners i'll the Eddy case, when inter-
viewed this afternoon, would only say
that it appears to them that Mr.. Streeter
the personal counsel for Mrs. Eddy, ana
those who have charge of her have, after
matured deliberation, arrived at the same
conclusion as to the incapacity of Mrs.
EDDY to manage her business affairs that
her son came to when he saw her in
January last.
This suit is not directed at Mrs Eddy
or at Christian Science. The position of
the petitioners from the beginning has
been that because of her incapacity to
manage her business affairs, reformation
as to the management, control and ac-
counting thereof was necessary for her
protection.
Now that the imperative need of this
reform is conceded a remaining question
would seem to be whether the interests
of Mrs. Eddy will be best cared for ard
protected by Il receiver appointed by the
court or by til" trustees appointed by and
acting practically as a continuation OF
the Old regime.

Women Who Wear Well.

II is astonishing how great a change a
few years of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm. the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from a
peach which is rudcly handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint ecbo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to tho system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riase and motherhood, not understand. nY
