There are some newspapers IN
the State endeavoring to make
prejadicial capital out Of the
appropriations made by the re-
cent session of the legislature,
but not one of them will point
out wherein an appropriation
was made that could have been
avoided without endangering the
States interests. It is all pop
py-cock of the worst sort to
charge "extravagant appropri-
ations." The appropriation made
for Winthrop was a due neces-
sity when it is considered that
the institution is turning away
girls knocking at its doors for
an education to help maintain
the civilization of this country.
The amount appropriated for
the Citadel was obligatory to
meet the purchase of property,
and to put in a condition habita-
bic for the sons of white parents
young men who are preparing
themselves to build up a more
enlightened citizenship. Not
one of the appropriations were
extravagant. The fact that the
State levy was raised one mill
need not be attributed to extra
appropriations, but to the desire
to cut down the levy last year
in response to popular clamor
without calculating the urgent
needs of the State, aud the re-
suit was the levy was too low to
meet the expenses of the gov
ernment, which brought about a
deficit that had to be met this
year.
Oh. but the legislature Great
ed two additional circuits. It
was demonstrated to the salts
faction of a large majority that
at least one Of these new circuits
was such a crying necessity, that
it was economy to create it and
thereby relieve the taxpayers
from expense caused by con-
gested dockets; the other circuit
was not quite in as bad condition
but fast getting to it. There
fore The combined wisdom of the
legislature voted for the addi-
tionai circuits on the ground of
economy.
Then we see it stated by some
Of these little fee newspapers
that ;;the legislature did very
little. in fact, less than any other
legislature before it, This is
not true. The present general
assembly enacted a number of
general laws, killed large num-
Der, some of which should have
not b,-en killed, compulsory edu,
cation for instance, and there
was more legislation of local
importance than at any previous
session in many years. Take it
all iu all, it was a remarkably
well balanced, conservative ses-
sion, newspaper conservative

Glow of Health speaks for Postum.

It requires no scientific training to
discover whether coffee disagrees or
not.
Simply stop it for a time and use
Postum in place of it, then note the
beneficial effects. The truth will appear.
"SiX years ago l was in a very bad
condition." writes Tenn. lady, 81 suf-
fered from indigestion, nervousness
and insomnia.
Il was then an inveterate coffee
drinker, but it was long before could
be persuaded that it was coffee that
hurt me. Finally l decided to leave it
off few days and find out the truth.
"The first morning l left off coffee 1
had raging headache, so l decided 1
must have something to take the place
of coffee" (The headache was caused
Ey the reaction Of the coffee drug
caffeine.)
Having heard of Postum through a
friend who used it, bought package
and tried it. l did not like it at first
but after l learned how to make 1t
right, according to directions on pkg,
1 would not change back to coffee for
anything.
when l began to use Postum
weighed only III lbs. Now l weigh
40 and as l have not taken any tonic
in that time l can only attribute my
recovery of good health to the use Of
Postum in place of coffee.

Mile. Miropolskys portraits do not
do her justice, for they cannot repro
duce the air of intelligence that beams
in every feature nor the changing eX-
preston, the keen sparkle of the eye,
the jet black hair, the white teeth or
the charm of manner which are hers.
Mile. Miropolsky desires especially
to practice in divorce cases and on be-
half of children. With regard to di-
vorce, she expresses ideas which in
some countries would be considered
audacious. She would like to see di.
vorce made easier; that is, she advo-
Gates dissolving union on the ex-
press desire of both parties. This re-

the interests of morality. Such con-

necessarily, low and vulgar incidents.
In divorce cases she hopes that it may
be her lot to plead nearly always for
the wife, for, she says, it is the woman
who suffers most frequently in these
domestic failures.
Mile Miropolsky thinks that every
possible career should be opened to
woman, and she finds that the chief
objection of men is due to fear of in
creased competition and not really to
any of the reasons commonly and
hypocritically put forward. She would
like to see women enter the church as
a profession, for that is sphere in
which their qualities would. she be-
lieves, be especially serviceable.
In politics, Mile. Miropolsky consid-
ers she has not yet read and seen
enough to be able to decide between
the various parties in the republic.
On the question of marriage she has
supreme contempt for what are called
marriages Of reason, the treason" gen.
orally being money. She recognizes
that marriage is the true function of
woman, and If she were to meet a man
for whom she had real affection she
would think herself happy to marry;
but on no other consideration save
that of love. In any case, she would
hope to continue her career in the le-
gal profession.
She is an opponent of capital pun
ishment She regards criminals some
what in the light of diseased persons
In any case, she says. where our own
motives are often so obscure and our
judgment so fallible, we have no right
to take the life of a human being.
Mile. Miropolsky speaks English
very well, with a precise but pleasant
intonation, and she also speaks and
reads German. She has Travelled much
In Europe and she is a skilled musi-
clan. And all this at the age of 81!

Helene Miropolsky Ia only 81 and was
sworn in as a lawyer before the court
OF appeals in this city last October.
Her appearance as counsel for the de-
tense in criminal trial attracted a
large number of old lawyers to the
courtroom, though the case itself was
nothing out of the ordinary. Her
client had been abandoned by the IA
ther of her child; finding herself on
the verge of starvation she had tried
to end her miseries. The baby had
died. but she had been saved.
"Portia come to life!" cried an old
jurist as he watched the beautiful girl
and listened to the eloquence of her
soft voice pleading for mercy for the
unfortunate sister on whom inexorable
justice had laid her heavy hand. And
so moving was her plea that the jury
acquitted her client.

1t is true that the neophobia of the

not that the mental power is less: but
it is natural for man to rely on the

to refuse to reopen questions he set

This atrophy of thought can be
avoided If the danger is foreseen, and
