New York’s latest manifestation of ' deep interest in rapid transit is crowd- ing in to watch a six day’s bicycle race. When the Kirsch remonstrance is heard there will probably be an ab- sence in the ranks of the objectors. One of our churches, it is said, will entertain the Sunday schOol children with stereopticon views of the late war with Spain instead of the usual Christ- mas tree. To some poor child whose only Christmas gift comes from the Sunday school, a view of Sampson’s prize .money will prove very interest- ing. The old members of Co. F want Cap- tain Rose to resign. When Rose is in- noculated with a‘desire to hold onto an office he can be depended upon to put up something novel in the way of reasons for declining to get out. Judge Day is not conducting the peace negotiations on a civil service basis. He holds that the spoils belong to the victors. ~ Jim Corbett is talking about fighting for charity. Jim is a hummer when it comes to discovering things to talk about.

BY ONE OF THEM. Most of the educated women now obliged to earn their own living can look back upon a girlhood Of freedom and pleasure, yet from which happy and, I have no hesitation in saying, most natural condition, they were sud- denly hurried, by stress of circum- stances, into the field of labor, where prizes few. Pride may urge such women to insist that they find the work delightful, but it is not possible that in their present conditions of responsibility and com- pulsory employment they can look back upon the past of unfettered leisure and i urinate weep stalent'lears of despair over. ., the things thatwereand mig‘h 5a, ntit‘lbe" Desperate often with "the mohotOny . of daily work, many young-women take hasty refuge in that before-mentioned employment of wife, lacking the most needful qualification—Love; or should this honorable position not be ofiered them, they fly for excitement to dan- gerous and disgraceful amusements. The majority suffer their heartbreak with a deathly stillness, simulating an interest in the work that they are far from feeling. Against feminine employment of a kind there can be no prejudice, for there is much that women, and women only, can do successfully; but it is the incessant enployment all day, and from week-end to week-end that tells so severely upon woman’s health and brightness, ofttlmes upon her woman- liness. The urgent necessity to reach the place of business by a stated and early hour in all weathers and all states of the health; indoor confinement th rough- out the day; the many duties to be ac- complished during the hours of busi- ness, attended by more or less respon- sibility, which is more wearing even than manual labor, since it strains the delicate nerves of the brain. The late hour of departure; the difli- eulties of transit to and from the place of business—are these not enough in combination to eventually crush all spirit and freshness from a woman’s heart, leaving her nothing but the nervous, ever-present dread of loss of employment and the certainty of an old age of poverty and loneliness ? For not the least unhappy factor in this daily employment Of women is that they have no time to make and cement the friendships that might comfort and support them in their old age. All honor must be given to those kindly employers who do everythmg in their power to make easy the lot of their women workers,. but even the kindest intentions in the world cannot remove the restraints necessarilyimp'os- ed by work,and so pitiful is the need Of women workers that the greatest kind- ness employers can show is to give them work to do— work whose remun— eration shall keep body and soul to- gether and defend them at least from the haunting fear of penury. Seeing how contracted still is the held Of feminine labor and how many are urgently needing employment therein, one cannot speak toostrongly in disapprovalof women who engage in the competition for vacant positions prepared to take a smaller lemuneration than the market value ofthe work they can do because distraction and net money is their object, and they know full well they can throw the employ- ment aside as soon as it fatigues them and return with zest to the pleasures and comforts of home. These dainty dilletantes in the world of work are, in plain words, robbing their poorer sisters in a most culpable and unwomanly manner. For, the com- petition being already so great, no hon- orable woman should accept a position fer which remuneration is given unless she is absolutely obliged to work to support herself or some members of her family. cw egg/«(glad (jzgue. nealnntess 0F 10:. The kidneys are responsible for more sickness, suffering, and deaths than any other organs of the body. A majority of the ills afflicting peo- ple to-day is traceable to kidney trouble. It pervades all classes of so- ciety. in all climates, regardless of age, sex or condition. The symptoms Of kidney trouble are unmistakable, such as rheumatism. neuralgia, sleeplessness, pain or dull ache‘ in the back, a desire to urinate often day or night, profuse or scanty supply. Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine. are signs of clogged kidneys. causing poisoned and germ-filled blood. Sometimes the heart acts badly, and tube casts (wasting of the kidneys) are found in the urine, which it' neglected will result in Bright’s Disease, the most dangerous form of kidney trouble. All these symptoms and conditions are. promptly removed under the in- fluence of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. it has a world wide reputation for its wonderful cures of the most distress- ing cases. . No one need be long without it as it is so easy to get at any drug store at fifty cents or one dollar. You can have a sample bottle of this wonderful dis- covery, Swamp-Root, and a book telling all about it, both sent to you absolutely free by mail.
