consid- ¬ ered rewards for mere party zeal is fatally demoral ¬ izing and we therefore favor a reform of the system by laws which shall abolish the evils of patronage and make beneety efficiency and

and a popular majority of nearly 750000 carrying thirty one of the thirty seven States while Horace Greeley for refusing to follow his party and earnestly seeking the reform of great abuses which had

the pending canvass What are they The platforms of the two parties give na little help In answering this question They axe as nearly identical as those of four years ago If there was any party issue then it related to the ques- ¬ tion of finance but both parties declared in faTorot apede payments and they do now and while tho Democrats demanded the repeal of the Resumption act the Republicans voted down a resolution in favor of carrying it into execution In the last Congress Republicans and Democrats united in the effort to repeal it and they were jointly entitled to the honor of defeating that effort The financial question his since been complicated by the silver sgiUtion but the Silver bill received the overwhelming support of both parties while the Bepuhlicans now totally Ignore the question and its vital connection with the continuance of our paper currency at par As to the constantly boasted achievement of resumption the simple truth is it has not come through legislation but aa the natural result of favoring conditions Just as the gratifying reduction of our national indebt ¬ edness has been made easy and almost inevitable by our marvelous resources I am glad to see in the platforms well denned issue respect ¬ ing our tariff policy for sooner or later onr rtupid and vicious tanff laws mut be thoroughly overhauled and reformed but no intelligent man of either party feels that the contest of this yearis to turn upon that question Nor is any issue tendered on toe subject of civil oervice reform Chinese immi- ¬ gration or the reservation of the public domain to actual settlers while in the matter of maintaining the purity of the ballot and the principles of po- ¬ litical morality both parties are wanting The complexion of our polities in fact is pecmiar We have outlived tho era In which clearly denned ques ¬ tions of policy formed the pivot upon which the action cf parties turned and j caUfied their existence as the means through which they Bought the adop- ¬ tion of their cherished views by the Government In a political dispensation so anomalous the army of independent voters should be larcely reinforced but since one of there parties will cettainly rule the country for the next four years the question sub ¬ mitted to the popular judgment is a general one in ¬ volving simply the choice to be made between them and thepersonal qualities of their standard bearers Bow should the sincere friends of administrative reform and thejiuxification of otfr debased nolilicscast their ballots 7 The answer to this question necessarily invites a comparison of these parties but the task is not al together free from difficulties One of them has been In power for nearly twenty years and has thus mpplied us with very aiupe means of forming an opinion while the other has been out of power nearly the whole of this period and has necessarily eft oa with a comparatively meager data of Judg- ¬ ment Senator Hoar in his opening speech at the Chicago Convention told us that tho parties which m It r ana can oe reaauy aecmea imi me as ¬ sertion is an affront to common sense and a reckless defiance of facts and if he bejevca it he is pitiably infatuated by party blindness The attitude of these parties twenty years ago at all events has no necessary connection with the question of their fit- ¬ ness for civil administration to day The Demo- ¬ cratic party was then divided on two rival candidates for the Presidency and after the eection of Lincoln a very formidable division of It appealed from the ballot to the bayonet as its last and desperate method of preserving the ascendency of slavery The result was the overthrow of secession the extir¬ pation of slavery the enfranchisement of negro the and the reconstruction of The resit tiess force of the Government events completely changed the political horizon and now in the new heavens and the new arth which we witness wc find the Democratic party North and South East and W est united as one man under the banner of one of the foremost heroes in the war for the Union It is not the Democratic psrty of 16G0 but the Democratic party of 1880 inevitably molded and instructed by gnat historical events and wears to judge it in the light of to day and the interest of the people of an sections in national unity and peace We have no right to reproach it for an administra ¬ tive record which it had no opportunity to make nor condemn it on Mr Hoars ingenious theory of con- ¬ structive guilt and imputed depravity The same reasoning applies to the Republican party Twenty years ago it disavowed any right or purpose to inter- ¬ fere with slavery in the States It denounced John Browns raidlnto Virginiaas the gravest of crimes At the beginning of the war it was willing for the sake of peace to abide by the Dred Scott decision and the enforcement of the Fugitive Slave act If I have not forgotten it was ready to surrender the principle of Conrressional prohibition cf slavery in all our national Territories It even favored an amendment to the constitution making slat ery per¬ petual in the States of the South For nearly two years after the war began it did its best to sate the Union and save slavery with it and after the war was over it offered to make a compete surrender of the freedmen to their old masters on the single condition that they should not be counted in the basis of repre-¬ sentation The fitness of the party to administer the Government now is not to be judged by these facts nor is it by any means established by the grand achievements of the party in crushing the rebellion and abolishing slavery in which it had the powerful and indispensable co operation of the Democrats We are now in the sunshine of peace and must be mainly guided in our Judgment by the facts which make up the civil administration of the Government since the close of the war and the settlement of the What claim has the Republi ¬ questions it involved can party to a longer lease of power founded on the record it has made during the past dozen years I This is the question w hlch now concerns us and in seeking an answer to it let us remember that it is the future and not the distant past v hlch chiefly in ¬ terests us and that the reformation of great po Jtlcal abuses has become the vital issue and pressing de ¬ mand of the time In its National Convention of 1SC8 the Republican party adopted the following resolution as a part of its platform Eunpaneo Es t wistion Jront lu teinjicr fhmriJlg2bn Brian r agitate the ancstion of tk renadiiur w boutn to Territorial rule

been inaugurated in its overwhelming ascenden- ¬ cy and with the amplest possibe opportunities to demonstrate its capacity to govern the country While they completely vindicated the greaty-ma-ligne- d Liberal Republicans of 1872 they summoned to the bar of history the party whose fatal blunder then brought disgrace upon the nation and a stain upon republican institutions throughout the world But let us still further continue our survey of the Republican party in the clear perspective of it his¬ tory Notwithstanding the perfecty deficient repu ¬ diation of its professions the party faced the coun ¬ try in its National Convention of 187C with ths fol ¬ lowing declaration embodying its confession of faith on the subject of reform Senators and Representatives who may be judges and accusers shouM net dictate appointments to ol ncc The invariable rule for appointments should have reference to the honesty fidelity and capacity of appointees giving to tho party in power those places where harmony and vigor of administration require Its policy to be represented but permitting S5Ja5fvrirjU T Kn41 I elr The Government of the United States should be administered with the strictest economy and the corruptions which have been soshaniefully nursed and fostered by Andrew JohnBou call loudly for re- ¬ form These were timely words The responsibility laid at the door of the President was exaggerated but the hand of reform was urgently invoked by the situation AU the great industries of the country demanded a thorough reorganization Our tariff legislation called for a thorough revision Our finances invited a prompt and complete overhaul- ¬ ing Our civil service was becoming a shameless system of political prostitution Roguery and plunder born of the multiplied temptations which the war furnished had stealthily crept into the management of public affairs and claimed immunity from the right of search What the country needed was not a stricter enforcement of party discipline not military methods and the fostering of sectional bitterness and hate but oblivion of the past both North and South and an earnest Intelligent and catholic endeavor to grapple with the problems of practical administration But what did the leaders of the party do After the freedom and enfranchisement of tho negro had been established by constitutional amendments in which all parties acquiesced they seemed utterly incapable of realizing the fact They were not will ¬ ing for a single moment to relax their hold upon the party machinery The animosities engendered by the war were to be nursed and coddled as the ap- ¬ pointed means of party unity while the party itself was regarded as a permanent establishment like the Christian religion divinely appointed and necessary to salvation It was not to be maintained for the legitimate purpose of emliodying certain doctrines and policies in legislation but chiefly on the score of its general blessedness and its immense usefulness in holding in check a purely Satanic opposition This view was openly avoaed by some of its great cham ¬ pions who declared as they do to day that the party is no more responsible for the corruptions and defalcations of its leaders than the church for the indi ¬ vidual sins of its priests and prelates Of course the contisned existence of such an organization was indispensable not only to tho welfare but the life of the republic against which tbe rebels were still plotting while it was strangely taken for granted that its disruption would immediately be followed by the translation of the honest men who belonged to it to another and better world instead of Jeaving them among us to serve the country under some other banner and a better leadership This concubinage of politics and theology was a v ery tempting contriv- ¬ ance since it would place the administration of the Government in the hands of the Republicans forever It is true that the corrupt and venal dements of so- ¬ ciety would inevitably gavitata into such a party through its prolonged bold on power and finally form a perfect hierachy of knaves and reprobates while the good men in its ranks would bo obliged to keep their places instead of joining the other ride or becoming the nucleus of a new party but this would be less dreadful than the ruin of the country in ths hands of an organization hopelessly disloyal and depraved The management of public affairs during Gen Grants first term was in accord with this new theory of politics The mercenary and trading element of the party naturally came to the front and became a regular purgatory of political un cleanness I need k fc all others to be filled by persons selected with sole reference to the efficiency of the public service and the right of citizens to share in the honor of render ¬ ing faithful service to their country On this platform Got Hayes was nominated and he emphasized it in his letter of acceptance in his inaugural address and in his famous civil service order which folowed a few months later Bv these documents he unequivocally pedged himself that Senators and Representatives should not dictate ap-¬ pointments and that they were no longer to be made merely as rewards for partisan services that no officer should be required or permitted to take part in the management of political organizations caucuses conventions or eection campaigns that no assess ¬ ments for political purposes on officers or subordi ¬ nates should be allowed and that this rule was ap picable to every department or tbe civil service Here were promises and pledges quite as sweeping as those which had been lnvariaby tramped under foot ior eight years How were they earned out by ths party under its new leader Some of you may remember the prophecy I made four years ago and my quotation from Senator Morton that in a Gov- ¬ ernment of parties like onrthe President must have his friends and that intration of any President will he in tbi- - in- - u wlwt the party which elected him makes it 1 h t this would prove true in the case of Mr Hayes was rendered Morton Conkling certain during the canvass Blaine Cameron and Chandler assumed exactly the same leadership as if a politician of their school bad been nominated The administration of Gen Grant which had brought the party to the verge t ruin was indorsed by the National Convention which nom ¬ inated his successor 1 he managers of the canvass studiously avoided all reference to evil sen ice re- ¬ form and the letter ot acceptance of their candidate while their conduct constantly assumed that his ad- ¬ ministration should be be elected would be a con- ¬ tinuation of that of Gen Grant The canvass in fact was merely a renewal of the struggle between the policy of hate and the policy of reconciliation which had so long divided the iieop e anSgBfcr cover of which the Republican leaderSSi termlned to maintain Weir Hold on pow Hayes himself serene y looked on and if hcsKot expressly sanction this mode of conducting ths can ¬ vass he certainly could not have been ignorant of the issue on which the battle was being waged and the methods employed to secure the victory His election in short was the unqucstionabe triumph or the machine politicians and they had a perfect right to claim it as logically redounding to their glory and advantage It was not a matter of tbe least surprise therefore that the civil service policy of the new President proved to be a perfect traTtsty of theparty platform and his own declarations Indeed the very begin ¬ ning of his administration was signalized by acts of the most shameless recreancy to bis pledges For several months following the election the result was in doubt It depended on the votes of Florida and Louisiana and these were to be counted by State of- ¬ ficials or exceedingly bad repute M L Steams was Governor or Florida at the time and contrary to law withheld from tbe Tildeu electors the certifi- ¬ cates to which the returns entitled them and gave certificates to the Hayes electors who had not received a majority of tho votes of the Mate Stearns was defeated for Goemorat the same election In which Hayes was held

natural for it is now known through offldal docu- ¬ ments that as a visiting statesman he had taken a leading part In manipulating the returns in Louisi ¬ ana and smoothing the way for a favorable decision by its Returning Board In a speech in Jhe House of Representatives of the 25lh of January 1877 he declared that tbe Electoral bill grasps all the power and holds States and electors as toys in its right hand It assumes the right of Congress to go down into the colleges and inquire into all the acts and fads connected with tbdr work It assumes the right of Congress to go down Into the State to re¬ view the act of every officer to open every ballot box and to pass judgment upon every billot cast by 7000000 Americans This was Gfn Garfields opinion as a member of Congress as to the

In Louisi- ¬ ana He knew that its Returning Board had openly and defiantly trampled under foot the law creating It and from which it derived its authority to count the vote of the State and that ltk action in counting it for Hayes and Wheeler was therefore ut- ¬ terly null and void He knew that the commission without violating the rights of the State without go ¬ ing down into tbe coUeges and Inquiring info all of the acts snd facts connected with their work but simply by ascertaining whether the election laws of Louisiana had been complied with would be warranted In rejecting the action of tbe board and awarding tbe State to Tilden and Hendricks Bnt he bad Joined his party associates in the foregone conclusion that the Democratic party nfust be de ¬ feated at all hazards and it was

and still graver charges Gen Garfied was one of the visiting statesmen who repaired to New Orleans soon after the last Presidential election in response to ths invitation cf President Grant for the osten ¬ sible purpose of securing a fair count of the vote of Louisiana The President ordered to that State imposing an military to force preserve the peace and see that the Return- ¬ ing Board of tho State was unmolested In the per¬ formance of its duty but ss he had already de- ¬ stroyed dvil government there by the bayonet the necessity for this ruIUtary order was not apparent unless some new outrage was contemplated The situation was critical and a feeling of uncertainty and aarm prevaled throughout the country The Chairman of the Democratic National Commit tee In- ¬ vited several representative public men of both po htcal parties to visit New Orleans in tho Interest of peace and the furtherance of the faithful perform¬ ance of Its duty by the Returning Board and on their arrival in tbe city they proposed to sen ¬ ator Sherman Gen Garfield and their Repub ¬ lican associates a Joint conference and friendly co operation with a view to a just and satisfac ¬ tory settlement of the threatening controversy But this proposition was summarily rejected on tbe pretext that these representative Republicans hid no legal authority to interfere with the vote cf the State or the action of the officers in canvassing it To this it was repled that no such authority had been thought of and that the proposed conference contemplated rnly such moral influence ss it might be able to exert In response to this the Republi- ¬ cans disavowed any authority or wish to interfere with he Returning Board ev en to that extent and thereby left the public competely in the fog as to the mean ¬ ing of their mMon There could however be but one explanation since a single earnest word on their art In the interest of fair pay w ould almost certainly Eave been heeded while their persona presence and refusal to act showed that they sympathized witn the determination c f the board to count the State tor tbe Republicans at all events and were present for tbe purpose of abetting that object Tbo known character of tbe board confirms this view It was the creature and Instrument of a State Government founded in fligrant usurpation and fraud Although the law creating it required that its members should belong to different parties they were all RepubLcans and two of them officers in the I he law also re¬ Custom House at Kew ureans quired the board to be composed cr

of their em ¬ ployers Its uiemlierR were the same men who sat Uon It 111 1874 and after tho election of that ear took the majority of votes from one Bide and gave it to the other by unjust arbitrary and illegal act as reported by a ltepubIcan Congressional Tbe President of tbe board had committee branded himself aa a peajurer in tbe tes-¬ timony be bad given respecting the State elec- ¬ tion of that jiar and had digraced himself b his political rascality aud disregard of law while holding bis gubernatorial office iu 18C7 The other members of the board were his fit associates aud It had been characterized by Hon Wm A Wheeler as a disgrace to civilization and was covered with universal suspidon And yet Gen Garfield and his Republican confederates in rejecting tbe proposition for a Joint conference declared that they had no reason to dcrtibt that a perfectly honest and just dec ¬ laration nftbe results of tbe election in Louisiana wTfrjjrffierRae by this tribunal That this declara tioiv rfus a deliberate and conscious falsehood must be accepted as certain unless we can defend these distinguished statesmen by attributing to them a density of ignorance respecting well known events aa disgraceful to them as lying That Gen Garfield had lent hlmreif to the Returning Board In its con- ¬ spiracy to cheat tbe people of the United States is still more fully confirmed by it action while canvassing the votes It refused to fill the vacancy in its liody and supply the wanting political element It wrapped itself in the mantle of darkness by ex- ¬ cluding from its sessions the public the general press reporters the Supervisors and Registrars of elections and tbe candidates for office and their at- ¬ torneys Iu a number of instances tbe sealed re- ¬ turns from distant parishes were clandestinely opened and the papers tampered with alter they bad been received b the board All thesefacts were known to Gen Garfied It was simply Impossible to attend its dally sessions and scrutinize Its action without realizing that forgery perjury and fraud were liberally woven into its work On the alleged ground oi Intimidation it flagrantly violated the law from which it derived its authority by throwing oat tha ballots of 7000 to 8000 legally qualified voters In order to secure a Republican victory This action was founded solely on this ground there being no chargo of repeating ballot stufflug or fraudulent returns and inasmubh as the board could take no action in any way on the subJecCof lntimldationwlthout a strict compliance with tbe detailed and drcumstan tial provisions of the State election law and as the fact Is undented and undeniable that no such com ¬ pliance was made the board bad no jurisdiction whatever except to count tbo votes returned Its action in counting them for Hayes and Wheeler was therefore an utter defiance of the laws of tbe State a flagrant outrage upon Justice and decency and a hideous mockery of representative Government This gentlemen is my indictment against Gen Gar- ¬ field He was an accomplice in the crime of cheat- ¬ ing tho people of the United States by pladng in the Presidential chair a man who was never elected

exclusive use in the public sohuols of the oounty for the ensuing term of four years Teachers are earnestly requested to secure the use of these books in their schools as soon as practicable and are reminded that it is their legitimate right to insist on their exolusive use All these books may be purchased for the first year at greatly reduced rales and corresponding books now in use may be exchanged for the new series by paying a trifling sum in addition It is respectfully requested of Trus tee that they assist the teachers by every means in their power to secure the new books The patrons of the schools are re minded that the change is made with a view of increasing the usefulness of the schools and promoting the welfare of the pupils The new books are much cheaper than the books now in use and in their real value are far su perior to them It is suggested that in case it is found impracticable to introduce new series at ance they may be ually introduced by parohSting the new books whenever a class is promoted to a more advanced book at which time it would bo necessary to purchase new books of the old series without aoy great expense to patrons This is a point of vital interest to the common schools of the county and it is hoped that the efforts of the Com missioner in this direction will be warm ly seconded by all friends of the com estly earned Wo oannot send out

still uses the medicine I believe she will be- ¬ come thoroughly cured of her various complicated diseases by their use We both recommend them to our friends many of whom have also Jieen cured of their various ailments by them Rev E R Wabken Cared or Drinking A young friend of mine was cured of an insatiable thirst for liquor that had so prostrated his system that he was unable to do any business He was entirely cured by the use of Hop Bitters It al- ¬ layed all that burning thirst took away the appetite for liquor made his nerves bteady and he has remained a sober and bteadyman for more than two years and has no desire to return to his cups and I know of a number of others that Gave been cured of drinkingby it From a Leading EailroadQflicial Chicago III I I An ingenious statistician who had been losing sleep in the pursuits of science has added up the nations of the world and is distressed to find out that this poor old world is really bankrupt that it owes more than it can pay and that as the process of debt making is continually going on the inevitable end will be a universal smash The gloomy view of the situation is supported by the magnitude of the figures total amount 30 wobelieveissome20000000000or 000000000 and it is plninly true that with the exception of the United States the civilized govcrrncnts of the world are rapidly increasing their indebtedness But we believe that this immense aggre gate of debt is an evidence rather of sol- ¬ vency than of bankruptcy a proof not that the world is so poor as to be insol- ¬ vent but that it is so rich that no extrava- ¬ gance can ruin it All tho great public debts of the world arcMe creation of the present century anapany of them of the past twenty or thijK years At the beginning of the centtc France had no debt at all and England only a trifling one Italy which is quite active as a debtor did not exist as a nation thirty years ago and tho United States had no public or local debt of any

some though possessed of a quiet at- ¬ tractiveness all her own Her wardrobe is chosen for quality according to her financial circumstances tlio colors are selected with care suitable to each other and favorable to her complexion you may call this taste so is is modest taste the style must of courso be as near the popular fashion as she dare ap- ¬ proach but never quite up to the height when out calling or shopping she dresses with neatness and care if walking she neither moves too fast nor slow but glides along with a natural and graceful step which is very becoming recognizing her friends by a polite bow or welcome grasp of the hand but there are no demonstrative embraces or gushing word She is strictly truthful When any question is being discussed and her opinion is asked she gives it hesitating- ¬ ly not doubtfully and if not accepted never allows herself to utter a contra-¬ diction but calmly and quietly with ¬ draws from the discussion although her opinion is not lost or defeated by so do ¬ ing on the contrary it almost always carries weight and effect Her acts and words are unobtrusive but her influence is great in the home which it is her hap ¬ piness to adorn A

unobtrusive occupations for which one gets no credit Itis a hopeless kind of task and how ¬ ever faithfully the crank is turned is one that brings little reputation There is a great deal of poetry about haying mean for those not engaged in it One likes to hear the whetting of the scythe on a fresh morning and the response of the noisy bobolink who sits upon the fence and superintends the cutting of the dew laden grass There is a sort of music in the swish and a rhythm in the swing of the scythes in concert But if the scythes cut well and s iRng merrily it is due to the boy who turned the grindstone For my part I used to like the grindstone that wabbled a good deal on its axis for when I turned it fast it put the grinder on a lively look- ¬ out for cutting Yds hands and entirely satisiiedhis desire that I should turn faster I used to wish sometimes that could turn fast enough to make the stone fly into a dozen pieces This is one of the disagreeable tasks of the boy farmer and hard as it is I do not know why it is supposed to belong es- ¬ pecially to childhood But it is and one of the certain marks that second child- ¬ hood lias come to a man on a farm is that he is asked to turn the grindstone as if he were aboy again When the old man is good for nothing else when he can neither mow nor pitch and scarcely rake after he can turn a grindstone and in this way ho renews his youth Being a Bog wicked for clergymen or other public men to be led into giving testimonials to quack doctors or vile stuffs called medi- ¬ I believe TTIckcd Tor Clergymen it to be all wrong and even sible 100 years wnnlil linro found it im aco to borrow tho amount which Is an nually paid for interest- - England owes a debt of some 1000010000 the foun- ¬ dations of which were laid in the attempt to prevent the French from being ruined by a sovereign of their own choosing But if England had had any idea at the outbreak of the Napoleonic wars of the outlay which would be incurred we may bo sure the ablest fhuiciers would have said that there was no credit of gover ment or power of nntlifcity which would suffice to carry so larle a debt Now triumphant Germanysks France for a trifle of 1000000000 as coolly as if it were a bottle of wine and totally mort- ¬ gages the resources of a nation before a nation is established Was tho world any richer 100 years ago when its lack of credit prevented its borrowing money Is it any poorer now when it has bor- ¬ rowed so much that a demand for pay- ¬ ment would bankrupt it A very siniplo answer to the question may be had by merely considering where all the money canio from which is now invested in the Grand Livre or ledger of France the consols of England and the bonds of other countries Before tho country could borrow there must have been capitalists who had the money to lend andtobpare The nations could not have borrowed unless the people were able to lend andif the world is able to lend 20000000000 or 30000000000 it can hardly be in danger of immediate bank ¬ ruptcy In fact the debts of the nations are merely the surplus of the people a small pait of tho accumulations which have been made in a century of industry and of progress Steam electricity and patent inventions have accumulated in the world such a mass of wealth as tho old world never dreamed of and as the pro- ¬ cess of accumulation is going on faster than the process of borrowing the world is growing richer every day richer in spite of wars and armies and Icings and tariffs and tax eaters and other obstacles and there is no call for any learned statis ¬ tician to sit up of nights in despair over the future of an insolvent world A Letter in Blood A bank note bearing a message writ- ¬ ten with blood was paid into a mer- ¬ chants office at Liverpool England some years ago The cashier while hold it up to tho light to test its genuineness noticed some faint marks upon it which proved to bo words scrawled in blood lietween the printed lines and upon the blank margin of tho note Extraordin- ¬ ary pains were taken to decipher these almost obliterated characters and the following sentence was made out s - If this note should fall into the hands of Jolih Dean of Long Hill near Carlisle ho will learn hereby his brother is lan ¬ guishing a prisoner in Algiers Mr Dean was promptly communicated with and ho applied to the British Government for assistance toobtainhis brothers release from captivity The prisoner who had traced the above sentence upon the note with a splinter of wood dipped in his own blood had been a slave to tbcDey or Mohammedan ruler of Algiers for eleven years when his strange mis-¬ sive first attracted attention in a Liverpool counting house His family and friends had long believed him deal Ho was released and brought home to En ¬ gland where however he did not long survive his constitution having been ir-¬ reparably injured by exposure priva- ¬ tions and forced labor in tko Dey s gal ¬ leys -- ¬ ¬ Dont Tell Tour Age A woman in Prussia cision of isnt obliged to tell her according to a recent age de-¬ lady there when courted by a man accepted him allowing him to think she was six years younger than sho really was When the wedding came off she would have to produce the official certifi- ¬ cate of her birth so she altered it to make it agree with her previous asser- ¬ tion to her lover In some process of red tapo the forgery was detected by a clerk and the bnde was arrested for falsifying a public document tried con- ¬ victed and sentenced to three months imprisonment She appealed and tho Superior Court reversed tho sen- ¬ tence the Judge declaring tliat de ¬ fendant did not intend to commit an ille gal act but was probably actuated merely by female vanity A womans age has thus been officially declared to be her own property ¬ the Appeal Court at Metz A Unskillful Among Women The incapable are a great fact says an English womans journal and as things are at present they are a legacy which has come down to us as the result of the notion that women ought to be We always in a dependent position think and hope that that notion is passing away Women of the poorer classes have never had it they have always known that they must know how to earn their bread Women of the highest classes are very often by their positions and connections forced to develop an administrative capacity and their rank in life prevents them if capable from becoming an utter burden on strangers The middle class women to ¬ IfoTel Use of Wood Shapings From wood shavings and paper

duty of every father and mother and of every one who has to do with the education and manage ¬ ment of girls to do their best to eradi- ¬ cate this incapableness and to make women fit to bear their
