WHERE WOMAN MUST STOOP TO CONQUER. Women as Money Makers Discussed— How His Wife Trapped Him— Why the Girls Don’t Marry— What the Boston Girls are Finding Out. Gail Hamilton says that when a woman has to concern herself with the material necessities of life she descends from a higher plane than man. She is often forced to de scend. She must often stoop to conquer. Humanity has made im mense strides since it was first heard of, but it has a great way yet to go iiefore it reaches the repose of per fect harmony and crowns a finished world. The angel in man has fatal ly bruised the head of the brute in man but the brute still bites at the head of the angel. As between the angel and the brute I think our own country leads the world. The un questionable claim of woman, the deference due to woman, the sacred ness of her physical inferiority and of her spiritual superiority, are not only a commanding instinct, but a clearly defined American manhood. A thousand, violations on the part of both men and women do not an nihilate this fact. Thousands of women earn their own living, thous ands of wives working harder than self-supporting maidens, thousands of both doing their work with or without protest, nay, even with re joicing, do not affect the fact. Even America, advanced as it is, has not reached the ideal life. D is much that we have reached a point where we can catch glimpses of the prom ised land At first sight it seems idle to say to women who are wearing them selves out in doing work that should bo done by servants, or to a world in which a large part of the house hold work not only, but of outside work as well, is done by women, that ultimately and ideally they ought not to work at all. But in any comparison ot their effective ness with that ot men it certainly shlvild never be forgotten, it should alway’s bo kept well in sight, that however unsuccessful their efforts, it is in a field which they are not made to cultivate. It is better that they cultivate that fieid than they be idle in their own, or that they starve in their neighbors’. Many women arc not sufficiently develop ed to discern their own peculiar work. Without discerning it they do a great deal of it instinctively in the lower fields where they tire forc ed to live, but from which they will one day he graduated. But always it should be held up on all sides to the light that woman’s real work is on character, her surest weapon is influence. She can buy and seil. and cook and sew, and wash and iron, because she is still of the earth earthly; but she cannot do it so well as a man because she is not so much ef an earth creature as he. Asa matter ot fact, even in this fa vored country, where men pay to women, as women, not as ladies or belles, or beauties, an extraordi nary amount ot deference, the mass of wives work as hard as the mass of husbands. Their spiritual superi ority is signified chiefly in trus— that the women work for love, the men for money. The spiritual ad vance made by man is seen chiefly in this that so much of the money he earns goes to the ministry of re finement, education, embellishment, to the wife and children whom he loves. But the woman secs no money for her toil. Her sufficient, her ample reward is in a husband, content, happy, growing in grace; in children, bounding to gracious maturity. The unmanned woman works tor necessity, for love of her dependent ones, for love of some beautiful or beneficient profession, lor sweet mercy and charity to the ignorant, lor horror of dependence upon those on whom she has no claim—seldom for business, ambi tion or material accumulation. The woman who fails iu her business is not necessarily the woman who sinks beneath the toil of the kitch en, or who pricks her life out with the needle, oi who cannot make both ends meet in a dry goods es tablishment or a milliner’s shop. Such a woman fails in man’s busi ness, not in her own. The woman who makes a real failure—a failure in her own business—is the unloved woman, the ungracious woman, the grasping, the selfish, the repressive, the unsympathizing, the censorious, the untruthful, the woman who is a center of discomfort, a source of anx iety, an object of avoidance, instead ot being that gentle, consoling and motherly magnet which draws unto itself all human want, and woe, and bliss and aspiration. Miracuous Escape. W. W. Reed, druggist, of Win chester. Ind., writes: “One of my customers. Mrs. Louisa Pike, Barto nia Randolph Cos., Ind., was a long sufferer with consumption, and was given up to die by her physicians. She heard of Dr. King's New Dis covery for consumption, and began buying it of me. In six months' time she walked to this city a dis tance of six miles, and is now so much improved she has quit using it. She feels she owes her life to it.” Free trial Bottles at Ponder k Hill's drug store. COAST DEFENCES. View of General C. P. Stone —Fortifica- tion an Insurance Measure. N. Y. Commercial Adve-tiser. General C. P. Stone was asked this morning what he thought of the views expressed by Sir Andrew Clarke in commenting upon an ar ticle in the London Times of Mon day, concerning the report of the United States board of fortifications. Sir Andrew Clarke advocated a sys tem of coast defenses which should neglect fortifications and rely tor its efficacy upon heavy guns protected simply by pits whence they can be raised for firing and operated from a distance by electric appliances. General Stone replied as follows: “The question ot American coast defence is quite too important to he fairly discussed in a short interview. It involves great national interest, and has been the subject of years of study by the best military engineers in the country. In the first place this seems to me a question which concerns America ami the safety of American harbors and coasts; and the hasty opinion of a British writer in the London Times are hardly to be respected, when opposed to the care fully formed opinions of competent American officers and officials. “The British writer states that the sum required by the board, over £2.’,000,000 sterling, is out of all proportion to the defensive require ments ot the United States. 1 know nothing about the opportunities this writer in the Times has had foresti mating the sum necessary for the defenses of our coast, but in my humble opinion, after having given much study to the matter, I do not believe a proper degree of safety can be assured for a less sum, and 1 should be pleased to see even a lar ger sum provided to be expended within the next tew years. “Not consideing tiio humiliation and disgrace which would come to us by the capture, or forced ransom of even one of our greater commercial ports, the, expenditure of $150,000,- 000 would be onl}’ a wise and pru dent financial operation of insurance, such as would certainly be adopted by ahy business man in reference to his property. “The ransom of New York city alone would probably bo double this sum. That of the city -t Boston would not he much less, and so on wi'h Batimore, Bnn New Orleans, Portland,* Maine, Charles ton and other ports. “But aside from the pecuniary question of ransom, there is the pe cuniary question of the demoraliza tion of trade and all enterprises which would result from the capture of even one large city. The unpor tance of this consideration can hard ly be estimated. “In respect to the expression ot opinion by Sir Andrew Clarke, I would, with due respect state that it is hardly wise to receive as ver}’ valuable the opinions of any man, however inteligent and well inform ed, who has a special plan of his own to put in practice, and who dis cards the views of ail others. In the case ot Sir Andrew, as in that of the writer in the time, I would not give much weight to the opinion of any British * authority on our fortifica tions, when the opinion favors leav ing our coasts in a defenseless posi tion.” SIOO REWARD, SIOO. The readers of the Advertiser will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its sta ges, and that is Catarrh. Hall’s Ca tarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known in the medical fraterni tv. Catarrh being a constitutional dis ease requires a constitutional treat ment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucus surfaces of the sys tem, thereby destroying the founda tion of the disease and giving the patient strength, by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work.

A Sudden Cold, Taken at the Presi dent’s Diplomatic Reception, Gives Him a Relapse, and He Goesto Bed to Die. General W. B. Hazen, chief signal officer, U. S. A. died at Washington of diabetes, at eight o’clock on the the 16th lust. He had suffered from diabetes for some years, but of late had improved in health and strength and hopes were entertained of his complete recovery. At the recep tion of the diplomatic corps given by the president, he took a severe cold, causing him to keep his bed on tiie 14th. On the 15th instant he was up, and reported himself much improved, saying that he would go to his office on Monday. On Sunday morning, his physician, P. F. Harvey, U. S. A., was sum moned to see him soon after day light. lie at once repaired to his rooms, and found an alarming change in his condition, suggesting poisoning of Lite blood. He at once adopted measures to overcome this condition, and restore strength. Consultation was also at once sought with Dr. D. L. Huntington, of the ar il}’, who agreed in the main with the attending physician. The case was deemed of so extreme gravity that his relatives in the city were informed, and they at once gather ed about him and spared no effort to bring him relief. Some improve ment resulted from the treatment, but towards evening his symptoms became aggravated, and at the re quest of his family, Dr. Lincoln met Drs. Harvey and Huntington in consultation. Every measure that skill or science could suggest failed to rally the sinking officer, and he breathed his hist at eight o’clock in the evening. His final illness was not accompanied by suffering, and his death was calm and without struggle. Information of General Ilazen’s death was conveyed immediately by Colonel Huntington and Captain Greely to the secretary of war, who communicated the sad intelligence to the president. The general of the army, who was advised ot the death by telegram, will be conferred with by Captain Greely in behalf of Gen eral Ilazen’s family, as to the mili tary honors to be paid the deceased. Owing to the delicate condition of Mr. McLane’s health, the funeral will take place from St. John’s John's church. Mrs. Hazen, who is in France, lias been notified by ca ble, and will return immediately to America. Two Crutches. I have only a few words to say, which are to state that I have been confined to my bed for two months with what we ealld Nervous Rheu matism or Sciatca. I was only ena bled to hobble about occasionally by the use of crutches, and in this condition 1 commenced the use of B. B. 8., 4 bottles of which enabled me to discard the use of my crutches and to attend to business. I had previously used all well receommen ded medicines without relief. It has been over two monts since using B. B. 8., and I consider myself a per manently cured man. J. P. Davis, Atlanta, Ga., (West Enp.) 9 England and Her Colonic*. The population of the British em pire is said to be 316,000,000, of which only 37,000,000 are in the British Isles. There are at least 10,000,000 people ot British descent residing in Canada, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand, all four of which, from the extent of their ter ritorial possessions and resources, may become powerful nations. Twenty years hence, at less than the present rate of increase, these colonies will contain 20,000,000, and the British Isles 40,000,000, and in another twenty years the colonies will have a population greater than the mother country. These facts give importance to the proposed im perial federation of which the con ference of the representatives of the several colonies in London next j )*ear is a preliminary step. At the | present relative race ot increase of the population of the mother eoun- try and her colonies the time must come when the centre of political power will pass from the former to the latter, and the cultivation of close relations between them exhibits po litical wisdom and foresight. Two specific considerations are to be submitted to the conterence of colo nial governors next year. One is the defensive measure mutually necessary tor the sasety of the em pire. and the other is the special in terests of the empire in time of peace and its commercial and social relations with its several members.

To Use the Hands as Well as Eyes a Great Idea in Education. St. Nicholas. There is anew kind of school, and here are new lessons and new teachers coming. Books we must have. To learn we must read. But we may read all about boats, and yet we can never learn to sail a boat till we take the tiller in hand and trim the sail beforo the breeze. The book will help wonderfully in telling us the name ot things iu the boat, and, if we have read about sailing, wo shall more quickly learn to sail ; but we certainly never shall learn till we are in a real boat. We can read in a book how to turn a heel in knitting, and may commit to memory whole rules about “throwing off two and puri tour,” and all the rest; x*et where is the girl wno can learn to knit without having the needles in her hands? This then is the idea ot the new school—to use the hands as well as the eyes. Boys and girls who go to the ordinary schools, where only books are used, will graduate know ing a great deal ; but a boy who goes to one ot these new schools, where, besides the books, there are pencils and tools, work benches as well us writing books, will know more. The other boys and girls may forget more than half they read, but ho will remember every thing he learned at the drawing table or at the work beneli as long as he lives. He will also remember more of that which he reads, because his work with his hands helps him to understand what he reads. 1 remember long ago a tear stained book ot tables of weights and measures and a teacher’s impa tience with a stupid child who could not master the “tables.” And 1 have seen a school where the tables were written on a blackboard—thus: “two pints are equal to one quart,” and on a stand in the school room were a tin pint measure and a tin quart measure and a box ot dry sand. Every happy youngster had a chance to fill that pint measure with sand and pour tho sand in the quart measure. Two pints tilled it. He knew it. Did ho aot see it? Did not every boy try it? Ah! Now they knew what it all meant. It was as plain as day that two pints ot sand were equal to one quart of sand ; and with merry smiles those s^x-yea’*-old aphileso phers learned the 4ables of meas ures ; and they will never forget them. This is, in brief, what is meant by industrial education. To learn by using the hands, to study from things as well as from books. This is the. new school, these are the new ‘’’lessons. Tho children who can sew and design, or draw, or carve wood, or do joinery work, or cast metals, or work in clay and brass, are the best educated because they use their hands as well as their eyes and their brains. You may say that in such schools aIU - oys will become mechanics arid all the girls dressmakers. Some may, many will not ; and yet whatever they do, be it preaching, keeping a store or singing in concerts, they will do their work better than those who onl}* read in books. Forward is the Word —A Georgia Editor’* Brave word*. Rome Bulletin. Before the war, we were all cot ton and negroes. The change is iust comtning around for the grand de velopment ot our natural resources that have been here lor ages smil ing at the races, but until now, un noticed. At last her seducive rich ness has, to some extent, diverted the people from the old ruts and we will soon realise the great bene fits. Our country is the richest of all, in all things, and why not the people take advantage of it? Why fritter away our lives only living a miserable, scanty existence, when we have all the advantages to ena ble us with moderate exertion, direc ted, to enjoy wealth equal to any people on earth. Our climate is all that can be desired, our soil as good as can be found, if properly managed. Our mineral wealth is as yet com paratively unknown. We can as tonish the w r orld with our coal and iron. We have gold regions as rich as California. We need not go west to mine. This is, and has been a mistaken idea ot thousands. We know the whereof in this case, and say that Georgia presents better ad vantages and better prospect for an immediate return for investment in mining than any seciion ot the Uni ted States. Why, then, wait longer? We should never be contented with a mere living. We should be up and doing for the good of the country and the future of poster ity. Development is the word.
