The Chicago youog women who
bare taken to smoking “becanso
they couldn't talk all the time,'
have drawn the attention of all the
museum managers.
Along about July, when the wenth
er is sizzling and nows is Bcarce,
Congress will probably do something
sufficiently important to record.
Congress is a great godsend to the
newspapers, but like most godsends
it comes slow.
------••• ......
The Constitution mourns and
makes the majority of its renders
eery happy because, it says, there is
cot ft Randall man on the ways and
means committee. This means that
the ways of the committco are all
toward honest revenue reform.
Thocbe, the contestant "for Car
lisle's seat, is having his erse investi
gated by the elections committee,
and at last the immortal Dado's fa
tuous query of Tboebo or not Tboebe
will be answered. It will bo uot
Thoebe.
I’anl Blount (Max O Itoill) in a re
cant interview says: ‘‘As a rule, I
find that wealth is a great destroyer
of true humor. Them is not that
jolly Bohemian spirit manifested
when a man becomes oppressed, so
to speak, with riches. He becomos
staid, perhaps fat and sleek, and
clothes himself with a frigid dignity.
Thetruo spirit, the freedom of buoy
ant expression, is lost except in very
rare instances.” This is as trno a
thing as was evor said, and accounts
for newspnper men being generally
such jolly, coropanionablo poople as
compared to their wealthy stibscrib
ers.
Augusta Chronicle: “We repeat,
the Hon. John D. Stewart, of tho
Fifth Georgia district, is on tho
right line. His bills—the one to in
crease the accommodation capital of
national banks and tho other to make
real estate collateral at national
banks—should bo enacted into law.
We trust that Judge Stewart will
press these bills with all the earnest
ness and ability at bis command.
Suffice it to say. that Judge Stewart
lacks neither earnestness nor
ability. Practical legislation is what
the country needs Major Barnes
has already given us evidence of
what ho can accomplish on the prac
tical line. We believe that the en
tire Georgia delegation will stand
out conspicuously among the delcga
t ions that may be in the fore front
practical statesmanship.''
Hinging Noises
In the ears, sometimes a roaring, buzzing
sound, are caused by catarrh, that exceed¬
ingly disagreeable and very common di-
ease. Loss of smell or hearing also result
from catarrh. flood's Sarsaparilla, the
great blood purifier, is a peculiarly which success¬
ful remedy for this disease, it cures
by purifying the blood. If you -offer from
catarrh, try Hood's Sarsaparilla, the p ecu
iar medicine. (*•

PAWNING A ttlRI,.
The Chicago boarding house keep
er must be a relentless sort ef a
grasping griffin. One of her has
just compelled an impecunious father
to pawn his daughter. In other
words, the parent has left his girl in
the boarding house as security for
an unpaid bill, and ns be is unable to
raiso tbo money, the griffin holds on
to the girl with both claws.
Every sincere and benevloent per
sou will bopo that the courts, which
bavo been appealed to, will decide
that tbo whole arraignment is il
legal, not only when it is compul
sory, but when the pawning is en
tirely voluntary. That is, voluntary
on tbo part of the pawner. There is
no evidence in this case that the
pawnee, so to speak, was consulted.
There is uo limit to the possible
consequences if the courts, by im
plication or dodging, sanction the
dangerous principle of pawning
girls.
In order to understand this it is
only necessary to consider the pawn
ing business. They say that when
one pawns aomeihing the paw nbroker
iesnes a ticket fixings definite num
berof months ns the period within
which tho article pawned must bo ro
deemed or the loan renewed bv the
payment of 897 per cent, intorest, or
thereabouts, and that if tho article
is not redeemed or the loan renewed
tbo thing pawned becomes the prop
orty of tho pawnbroker*.
It is now plain that clangorous
complications may ensuo if tho prac
tico of pawning girls is sanctioned
by the courts. It is a familiar fact
that tbo majority of lovers are im
peennioue, and that the lover who
has two girls is twice as impecun
ions ns tbo youth with one girl.
Suppose, in a moment of weakness
an impecunious young man should
be driven to pawn one of bis girls.
It is inconceivable that while lie
had one, two or three girls impawn
ed he should bo able to rniso the
money to redeem the pawned girl,
or oven to pay the interest on her.
There is no reason to donbt that he
would pawn another of his girls, and
another mid another, until fin
ally ho would he forced to pawn his
best girl herself. Tho inevitable re
suit of such a chain of events would
be to centralize the ownership of
very many of the best girls in the
pawnbrokers, and to keep the liar
bor polico busy rescuing drowning
young moil whose pockets are stuff
ed with pawn tickets, each one en
titling tho bearer, on payment of
principle and interest to ono girl.
If centralization is a dangerous
principle in general, tho centralize
tion of girls is fraught with tiiple
perils to our civilization. Tho Chi
cago courts must act decisively and
promptly in view of the fact that pub
lie opinion demands tho maximum
distribution of girls, now and for
over.
