Wherefore, every woman in the coun-
try will rise up and with one voice de -
Clare that matrimony is a picuie for
men and slavery for women.
But is it ? Think a bit, my sisters!
la the first place, the woman gets the
best of the trade in being married. Tho

ushers the majority of women into a
soft snap, an easy job, whereby they can
make a living with less labor than they
eould in any other way in elle world.

woman who has tried it will bear testi-

1 a cinch compared to pounding a type-
writer or standing behind a counter or
. manicuring, or dressmaking or following
' any other known feminine occupation.
As a broad proposition a woman. has

With a man matrimony means, the
1 heavy end of the bargain.
He begins by dividing .his income In
1 half with another person, and generally
i ends by cutting it into infinitesimal
1 pieces with a family.

the daily slavery he undergoes in busi-
ness the ordinary beneiliet gets merely
his board rind clothes and the privilege
of seeing his wife sally forth in silk et -
tire with money in her purse to waste.
Matrimona also emanemates n woman
but it lands a man in the chain gang.
The wedding is the beginning of the
bride's liberty and the end of the brides
groom's.
Ip to then she has never done any-
thing exactly as she wanted to, She
has always aad to defer to her mother
and father and grandmother, and sisters
and cousins and aunts.
She's worn what they thought proper
and she hated, and she has .eaten accord-
ing to her mother's dictate, and not
her own taste. But the wedding ends
eU that.
She leaves the altar, not only a free
woman, but BOSS, and henceforth her
husband eats and drinks and smokes ac-
cording to her behest, and not to his
own stomach and appetite. He may have
the digestion of an ostrich, but there's
no more Welsh rarebits for him unless
theyeagree with her.
Nor is there any alcoholic susteinment
If she happens not to be a thirsty soul.
It will be found that the one who real-
ly does the giving up for peace in a fam-

poor, henpeeked husbands we all know,
who lie for the sake of harmony about

4 Mai OF THE LIFE OF LYDIA E. PIMA
'And a True Story of How the Vegetable Compound
Had Its Birth and How the "Panic of '73" Caused
(it to be Offered for Public Sale in Drug Stores.
This remarkable woman, whose
maiden name was Estes, was born in
'Lynn, Mass., February 9th, 1819, corn-
ang from a good old. Quaker family.
'or some years she taught gchool, and
became known as a woman of an alert
amid investigating mind, an earnest -seeker
loiter knowledge, and above all, possessed
,of a wonderfully sympathetic nature.
In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkhara,
s 'builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
our children, three sons and a daughter.
In those good old faelikened day a it
was common for mothers to make their
°win home medicines from roots and
herbs, nature's own remedies—railing in
a physician only in specially urgent cases.
By tradition and experience many of
them gained a wonderful knowledge of
4 the carative properties of the various
roote and herb&
Mrs. Pitikham took a great interest in
tb,e study of roots and herbs, their char-
acteristica and power over disease. Sho
maintained that just as nature so bounti-
fully provided. in the harveet-fields and
orchards vegetable food e of all kinds ;
to, if we but take the pains to fiud them,
inn the roots and herbs of the field there
are remedies expressly designed to cure
the various i11 and weaknesseit of the
body, and it was her pleasure to search
these out, and prepare simple and effec-
tive medicines for her own family and
friends.

their naother, combined forces to restore
the family fortune. They argued that the
medicine which was so good for their
woman friends and neighbors was equally
good for the women of the whole world.
The Pinkhame had no money, and
little credit. Their first laboratory was
the kitchen, where roots and herbs were
steeped on the stove, gradually filling a
gross of bottles. Teen came the question
of eelling it, for always before they had
given it away freely. They hired a job
printer to run off some pamphlets setting
forth the merits of the medicine, nole
called Lydia E. Pinkbam's Vegetable
Compound, and these were distributed
by the Pinkham eons in Boston,
arew York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties of
the medicine were, to a great extent,
self -advertising, for whoever used it re-
commended it to others, and the deraand
gradually increased.
In 1377, by coralsined ewes the family
had saved enough money to commence
newspaper advertising and from that
time the growth and success of the enter-
-prise were aesured, until to -day Lydia E.
Pinkham and ber Vegetable Compound
have become household words every-
where, and many tons of roots and herbs
are used annually itt its manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not live
to see the great success of this work. She
passed to her reward years ago, but not
till she had provided means for continu-
ing her work es effectively 08 she could
have done it hergeIf.
During her long and eventful experi-
ence she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful to pre-
serve a record of every caee that eame
her attention. The CSE0 of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice—
and there were thousands—received
careful study and the details, including
symptoms, treatment and results were
recorded for future reference, and to -day
these records, together with hundreds of
thousands made since, are available to
sick romen the world over, and repre-
sent a Vast collaboration of information
regarding the treatment of woman's ills,
which for authenticity rind accuracy can
hardly be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia E. Pinitharn worked her
daugliteran-law, the present Mrs. Pink -
ham. She was carefully instructed in
all her hard-won knowledge, and for
years she assisted her in her vast entree-
poedence.
To her hands naturally fell the dire -
tion of the work when its originator
pasted away. For nearly twenty -Live
years elle hats eontinited it and nothing
in the work shows When the first Lydia
E. Pinkham dropped her pen, and tho
present Mrs. Pinkham, now the mother
of a large family, took it up. With

ROADS TO SOCIAL SUCCESS.

It has frequently been sztid by persons
litho should know that the ability to play
games well is an easier means of getting
Into society than the possession of money.
1± 18 not diffieult to point to many casee.
in which men merely through ex -pertness
in sports have won a tilace for them-
selves in the highest society.
"This has been especially true of ten- •
nis," said one of a group of men at a
club on Fifth avenue. "The process of
becoming socially popular through this
sport is not difficult to explain.
"The men who play will take part in
the tournametits at Newport tina Other
suramer resorts. The victor or even the
very good player must be very much of
a bounder not to be welcomed at the
first houses in those places. In this way
they make friends Oat remove from
their paths many difficultiee in the
social ascent. These men are always
welcomed as members of good clubs be -
amuse men who play games well are in
demand everywhere.
"Good polo playing is a mighty aid to
the socially ambitioue. Men who are
adepts in this game must have other very
objectionable qualities not oto be received
cordially everywhere,
"It is to such athletic prowess rather
than to the ability to play or sing or tell
stories that men rnuOt look for their
most rapid social advance. Athletics -will
take one higher than these other talents.
"One great advantage of the man who
succeeds socially through his skill in
sports is 'that he arrives through the men
rather than the wonieu. Men of the set
tvhich so many are striving nowadays to
enter have much more respect for the
newecimers that are introduced by rneu
than for those introdeced by womee."
This evastthe opinion of a man who has
seen, many young men climb to ' the
Social heights on which they had set
their eyes and who himself many years
ago accomplished the orate journey. He
is a mine of wail wisdom, produced first

SWETTENHAM-DAVIS.
LOTS OF MATTER FOR A FIRST CLASS
OPERA BOUFF.
(Toronto Saturday Night.)
Three American war vessels steamed
into tbe British harbor of ruined King-
ston offering to belp if help were need-
ed. Ships of any other navy in the
world in the port of a first-class power
would have placed themselves at the
disposal of tee authorit es, and been
'content with that. Rearee,dmiral Davis
expressed hie intention of firing a ealutp
in honor of the British Governor. Very
sensibly the Governor requested that
this formality be dispensed with, ae it
would needlesely alarm people for miles,
around who had passed through enougn
disquiet already, aim sa/ute, however,
was fired, and people for miles around
were needlessly alarmed. "My dette Gov-
ernor," wrote Rear -Admiral Davie that
evening, "I beg of you to accept my
apology for the mistake of the salute
this afternoon. My order was misunder-
stood, and the disregard of your wishes
was due to a mistake in the transmis-
sion of any order. I trust the apparent
disregard of your wishes will be over-
looked." Certainly, if it was not a de-
liberate act of disrespect, but merely
a piece of bad management in the visit-
ing navy, let it be overlooked. Send
meseneers in all directions to tell the
alarmed natives that these bellowing
noises do not portend the enu1 of the
world—which they momentarily fear—
but was a visiting navy shooting off c.an-
non by mistake.
i But the "apparent disregard" of the
. Governora wishes did not end here. Al-
; though informed immediately on his ar-
rival t'nat the British authorities in
1 Kingston were in need of no outside as-
. tristance, Rear -Admiral Davis reports that
1 'I landed working paries from both
ships to -day," and "I purpose landing
, I parties to -morrow unlese you expresely
do not desire it. . . . This party re.
covered a safe that was being stolen
; from a jewelry store. . . . from this
; I judge that the police surveillance of
; the city is inadequate for the protection
I of private property." The British Gov-
ernor had already assured. him that the
police protection was adequate. His
. word could not be accepted—Davis was
looking into these matters for himself.
"I shall," he continues in this, perhaps
the most remarkable letter ever received
by a British Governor since the Romans
Invaded England, "direct the onedical of-
ficers of my squadron to make all efforts
to aid cases of distress which perhaps
do not come under the observation of
your medical officers.' In feet, he isn't
satisfied with the look of things, and is
going to take hold of affairs, Governor
or no Governor.
To get it line on Rear -Admiral Davis'
turn to his despateli to Admiral Evans
sent off just before he got the letter
from Governor Swettenhani that jolted
him off his high horse. He cables his
superior officer that he finds Sir Alexan-
der Swettenham a man of great power,

of police protection or relief; declined
my offer to land wrecking parties to as-

The puppy after adopting Davenport

came the final scene in the canine trag-
edy.
"Sheik Ali had galloped his horse, a
fine Kehilan Ajuz, on a mile ahead to
the tent of his own tribe, and presently
the horsemen came riding toward us,
carrying long .spears. My attention was
taken by the superb horses—four bays,
two grays and a chestnut. As we drew
nearer more people came to meet us, and
the excitement was general. Near the
Sheik's tent, large and well constructed,
were several Bedouins killing a sheep for
winner. All the dogs in the neighbor-
hood were watching the proceedings.
"Suddenly, when we were about to dis-
mount, a number of wolf -like doge, big
ana ferocious, came tearing up to us,
and before any one could interfere, my
poor puppy went clown before the at-
tack. It was over in a moment. The
tribesmen drove the hounds away, but
only to leave, torn and disfigured, the
youngster, my volunteer body -guard, my
puppy who had left home for me.
"I felt as if I could destroy all the
dogs of the desert for this wanton mur-
der. To me it meant more than the loss
of a dog—it meant the passing of a love
that could not be bought for money. The
affection of this puppy was spontaneous,
and it was mine, and although there
were no eireling collars on him as he
died, he didn't whimper, he didn't turn
his tail, he died as he had treveled—in
the shadow of the horse, and before his
master's eyes."

well,' or an occasional dose will prevent
sickness. There is nothing to equal
these Tablets as a mire for stomach and
