THE MEN'S RIGHTS SOCIETY.
The organization of the Boston
“Men’s Rights Society" is the first step
towards the emanci. ation of man. For
generations a false public sentiment has
deprived men of skirts, and compelled
them to wear the badge of servitude,
trousers. So long as men can be made
to wear trousers they will continue to be
the abject stx. The physical deteriora
tion of civilized man, which has been
bewailed by all thoughtful per ons and
attributed to a variety of causes, not one
of which has really had anything io do
with the matter, is the result of wear
ing trousers. Il' man is to rival the ro
bu t British matron or the sinewy New
England schoolmistress he mast be per
mitted to wear skirts, and the Boston
“Men’s Kights Society" is formed to
begin an agitation in behalf of man's
emancipation from trousers, the triumph
of which, though it ttiay be long delat
ed, is morally ceriain.
Trousers are entirely incampat ble
with heal: . They afford the ma.e legs
no adequate protection from the eie
merits. A woman when driving in a
carriage on a cold day, can fold her skirt
about her in away to greatly increase
the warmth of her person, but man has
no way oi luldi..g his trousers so as io in
crease their protective powers. In rainy
weather, a man’s w .terproof coat and
umbrella afford him no protection be
low the knees. The rain drives against
the lower part of his trousers and ren
ders them thoroughly wet, and, as they
fit closely to his person wet trousers nat
urally chili the wearer the result,
especially when a man is compelled to
wear wet trousers for several hours, is
frequently illness ol a more or loss
serious character. A woman, on the o n.-
trary, finds her skirts an admirable pro
tection against rain. She wears three or
four shirts at the same t>me, and, owing
to the fenders in the shape of "dies* im
provers" and other like devices which
she wears under her skirts, the latter do
not habitually touch her ankles. Thus
the wetting of one or two skirts does not
produce any sensation of dampness in
the regions ol the stool lugs, and the
wearer is not subjected to the danger of
taking cold. Moreover, a woman whose
outer esins are damp can always turn
them up and dry them with the aid of a
giate fire, a process which cannot be ap
plied to trousers. If our women would
only try to walk in wet weather with no
protection lor their ankles except ordina
ry trou-ers, they wou ■: wonder why m< t>
have ever been willing to we.r such a
useless un 1 dangerous girme; t.
In muddy weatbor trousers become
not only dangerous to health but revolt
ing to persons of decency. ”he mud
not only sprinkles the exterior ot the
trousers, but it plasters the interior i f
them to the height of at least three
inches from the tup of the leg. A
woman in muddy weal her can lilt up -her
skirls aud keep thorn out of the mud,
but no man can lift up his trousers. Ti e
only tlii.-rg h; can do i.- to lift up the
bottom of them—a practice which not
only give> a soil dressed man tho ap
pearance of a tramp, at least below th •
knees, but which converts th : bottomsof
trouser legs into reservois for the accu
mulation of mud and water. One I as but
to contrast the appearance of » w > inn
walking briskly over i niu i ly pavement,
with her skirts gracefully held up out of
the mud with one hand, and that of a
n:au stolidly st i ling along with his trou
sers, from ti c knees downward, spatter
ed and splashed with mud, and his stock
ings—could they be seen—m even »
worse plight. It is no won ler that our
young men ire feeble, thin-lcgged ami
narrow-cheated. The wonder is tha the
fatal trousers have not long since extir
pated the race.
Aside from considerations of health
man is handicapped in the riee of life
by his trousers flow many things does
a man drop and lose in the course of a
year in consequence es the fact hat lu
has no lap in which to hold them A
woman, by spreading out her skirts can
give herself a lap capacity of fully two
bushels, but a man cannot hold a single
grain of corn in his lap. Tho trousers,
although they may be provided with
three or four pockets, have very little
carrying capacity, since there is very lit
tle room between the inner surface ofthe
trousers and tke outer surtac? of the
wearer; whereas a woman’s pocket is of
almost unlimited capacity, and in some
cases—as custom house search can
testify—has been known to contain arti
cles sufficient in quantity to Gil a large
sized Saratoga trunk. Were man to
wear skirts he could carry a week s
change of clothing ai> 1-oilet articles ii.
his Docket an i make a trip to Washing
ton or Chicago with absolutely nothing
in his hands; whereas, in coi sequence of
wearing trousers he einnot leave home
lor a single night without loading him
sei 1 down with a bag.
Women have hill erto monopolized
skirts from purely selfish motives, but
they cannot forever deprive men ot
them. If we are healthy, and in a con
dition to fight the ban le of life untram
m-llei, we must cast trousers to • e
winds and put on skirt.-.—Atlanta Jaur

A Mother’s Love—A Practical
Illustration of Its Power.
A mother’s love ! What a potent thing
it is ! It will melt the heart of the most
hardened criminal, when no other influ
ence would be effectual. No one but a
mother knows its full meaning, but every
one can appreciate it if they will. It is
known, though, that it means sleepless
nights, care, inconvenience, and, if ne- '
cessary, want, hardship and death. But
the subject has been too eloquently
treated by the sweetest poets and the
ablest writers to furnish an essay for
these columns. Too many practical il
lustrations occur in every day life for it
to be dwelt upon,so that itis unnecessary
to speak of the subject further in order ,
to make the reader understand the full ,
meaning of what is to follow.
Mrs. Henry Schua'.en, of Ashland,
Ky., writes that her daughter Mas been
cured of deafness which resulted from
chronic catarrh. She tells how she had
lost all hope of her daughter ( her ideal) ’
being cured, and how overjoyed she is at
the result. After trying many remedies,
she says Perun A brought a cure, and
that the daughter’s hearing is restored. <
She concludes, by speaking in the most
flattering terms of Pebun A, and then de- ■
scribes in the most lovely manner the ;
happiness it has brought her, and reviews ■
! the distress- she experienced while her ■
daughter was afflicted.
Dr. A. R. Ong, Martins Ferry, 0.,
> writes : “ I have a large trade on your
Peruna. Think it is a grand remedy.”
Mr. Robert C. Hannah, Toles!>orough,
Lewis county, Ky., writes: ‘-I write to in
form you of the great benefit I received
by the use of your medicines, Peruna
and Manalin. I had been low spirited
and very sick for about six months with
a bad cough, and ir.y friends thought I
had consumption; tried a number of
patent medicines, and most of the doctors
in the vicinity (and we have some as
good as you can find in the country),
but they did me no good whatever. Our
merchant, Mr. Gillespie, insisted upon
me trying vour remedies. I did so, but
must say, I had little faith in them at
first; before I had consumed my first
bottle, I noticed a change for the
better, and to-day I am entirely well,
and as sound a man as there is in the
vicinity. I credit my cure to your valu
able remedies, Peruna and Manalin,
and recommend them to all of my
friends.”
