There are thoughtless people who
say that beauty of soul signifies in
variably beauty of body; that the
spiritual and intellectual most of
necessity shine through the corpo-
rocal vestiture as n lamp through
a transparency. Granting that a
certain dignity and nobility do in
here in the personality and that ed
ucation refines the features and in
forms the countenance with expres
sion, the admission must be made
that beautiful souls are not invari
ably resident in beautiful bodies.

The municipal elections in Kan
sas on Tuesday were notable for
the fact that it was the first time
the women of the state have taken
any general interest and active
part in elections, though they have
had the franchise for some time.
In Kansas City, Kansas, there were
three thousand women registered,
and most, of them voted. It is a
notable fact in this connection that
though there was a woman eandi
date for mayor, running as an in
dependent, she received only fifty
votes. This would indicate that
though the women wanted to vote,
they did not believe in electing one
of t}ieir number mayor of the city.
A correspondent of the Philadel
phia Press makes the following
comments on the day; “Two things
were conclusively proved at the
election. One was that refined
women will vote, the other that the
presence of these women at the
polls has a good influence on the
character of the election. Even
the rough ward heelers were sub
dued and gentlemanly in their
presence. The police closed every
“joint” and not a drunken man
was to be seen. It was noticeable,
however, that colored women
crowded the white women at the
polls with insolence. The polls
opened at S o’clock, but very few
women appeared before 10. Some
of them were accompanied by their
husbands or brothers, but the
greater number walked to the polls
without male escorts. Most of the
women voted with self possession
and an apparant knowledge of
what they were doing. While the
men slid their ballots into the box
es as though afraid so pie one might
guess for whom they voted, the
women voted fearlessly.”
The women have had the right
to vote in municipal elections in
Kansas for several years, but this
is the first time they have exercised
it to any extent. Before the elec
tion, the populists claimed that the
women would vote with them, that
it was interest in their cause which
brought out the large registration
The result shows however that for
the most part they voted with the
republicans or democrats, and as
the republicans carried the day in
the greater part of the state, it
would seem that the majority of
them at least voted with that tick
et. Kansas seems likely to remain
a republican state for the people
have evidently gotten enough of
the recent populist craze, and it
appears the women are disposed to
work for reforms within party
lines, rather than to run otf after
new political gods, Mrs. Lease's
example to the cpptrfjry nothwith-
standing.
One thousand eight hundred and
fifty towns and cities in the United
States are equipped with electric

Ihe total recorded immigration

Some collections are unique. A

The Irish spend $11 per capita,
the Scotch $15.14 per capita and
the english $19.16 per capita for
liquors annually. These statistics
are given by Rev. Dr. Dawson
Burns, of Lonnon, who is a stand
ard authority on tempenince ques
tions.
The sea-horse is built upon a pe
culiar plan. It has the head of a
horse, the wings of a bird and the
tail of a snake. In swimming tt
assumes a vertical position, and
when wishing to rest it attaches
itself to a convenient stalk of sea
weed by means of its tail.
The sum of twelve cents has been

The bullet-proof cloth which a

Sarsaparilla. Your life, or that of some ono
near and dear to you, may depend on tho
use of tills well-approved remedy In prefer
ence to any other preparation of similar
name. It is cnmpoumled of Honduras sar
saparilla (the variety most rich in curative
properties), stllllngia, mandrake, yellow
doek, and the iodides. The process of man-
ufaeturo is original, skilful, scrupulously
clean, and such as to secure the very best
medicinal qualities of each Ingredient. This
medicine is not boiled nor healed, and Is,
therefore, nut a decoction; but it is a com
pound extract, obtained by a method ex
clusively our own. of the best and most
powerful alteratives, tonics, and diuretics
known to pharmacy. For the last forty
years, Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla
has been the standard hlnocl-purlflcr of the
world—no other approaching it in popular
confidence or universal demand. Its form
ula is approved by the leading physicians
and druggists, Being pure and highly con
centrated. it is the most economical of any
possible blood medicine, livery purchaser
of Sarsaparilla should insist upon linving
this preparation and see that each bottlo
bears the well-known name of
J. C. Ayer & Go.,
Lowell, Mass.
In every quarter of the globe Ayer’s Sar
saparilla is proved to be the best remedy for
all diseases of the blood. Lowell druggists
unite in testifying to the superior excellence
of this medicine and to its great popularity
in the city of its manufacture.

Pope’s father was a merchant.
The mother is the child's first
penitentiary two years ago,” suitl
L. A. Juhving, a successful defec
tive to a St. Louis Grlobe-Demociut
man. ‘'For ;i year or more a very
slick young - crook had been work
ing tho ecuntiy banks of tho
South for considerable amounts.
1 was put on hi* trail and tracked
him to a hotel in Memphis. He
was a handsome young fellow,
small of stature anil had a hand
and foot like a duchess. The
moment I got sight of my mini J.
suspected that ho was not a stran
ger to female disguises. My evi
dence against him was a trifle
shaky, so I concluded not to arrest
him at once, but to give him an
opportunity to mako a piay that
would surely bag him.
‘‘That evening a very stylish
young lady occupied the seat next
to me at tho supper table. She
was quite pretty and aitoge tuor
charming.
“I fell into conversation with her,
and learned that sho was from
New (Means and a daughter of a
wealthy banker on Canal Street.
“I forgot to watch my man and
spent the evening with Alio young
lady in the parlor. She was an ex
pert at the piano, hud a, beautiful
contralto voice, and sang senti
mental songs to me until 1113” heart
just crawled over to her.
“She intended to go away tho
next day, but I persuaded her to
postpone her departure and paid
her assiduous attention. Opera
tickets, suppers, carriages and
flowers spoiled a $100 bill in two
days.
“I suddenly discovered that my
bank worker had flown, but I
didn’t wory about him much.
The banker’s daughter interested
me far more than tho banker’s
robber.
“The evening of the third day
she was playing the piano and I
was playing the fool. I was beg
ging one of those beautiful vellow
curls which bung over her shoul
ders like a shower of gold. She re
fused, and I made a pretence of
cutting 0110 off. Sho sprang up
from the piano in playful resent
ment, the curls caught in the mu
sic rack, the wig came off and my
fly check manipulator stood before
me.
“I was tho worst sold man that
over played the sucker, but I had
sense enough not to show it. 1
coolly took a pair of handcuffs
from my pocket. ‘What, ’ said tho
fellow with a sneer, ‘would you
subject your- sweetheart to this
indignity?’ Then he laughed as I10
slipped his dainty hands through
tho jewelry and allowed it to fall
to tho floor and tangle itself with
tiie yellow curls that I had learned
to love so well.
But I ran him in, and I10 got on
the various counts fourteen years
in the pen.”
