a striking innovation In the direc-
ton OF enforced medical examination
of women has been suggested by the
Swiss Society Of Public Utility for
Women. The proposition is that young
Swiss women should undergo a medi-
cal examination on the same system as
their brothers when entering the army;
that the measure should be made COM
pulsory and that certificate of health
and fitness for motherhood should be
issued to each young woman who
passes the examination.
Ia recent report of the society,
Swiss women were urged 10 undergo
examination FOR the sake of themselves
and their country. The extremists in
he society wish the test To be APP

Attalla. September 2.-(Specal)-The woeful condition of our ancient and greatly respected enemy, the republican party nationally seems to have had a depressing effect upon it's membership here in the bloody seventh.

 And besides this defeat has no sting for MT. Howard.

After he has been given knockout drops in the seventh it is usually a very simple matter for Mr. Howard to get a rake and chase over the district and gather up the scattered rem nants of his political record and wrap them up in an old flannel undershirr for future reference and then cheerfully take up his regular occupation refreshed and invigorated by his brief vacation.
 Other prominent life long republicans ave been mentioned as possible candi- dates, but somehow they do not seem tD grab. Thomas J.
