f There is not I word so full g of meaning and about which such tender anu f*oly -recollections cluster as that of “ Mother ”—she who watched over our helpless infancy and guid ed our first tottering step.

How beautiful does Ruskin, who . did so much to popularize art and harmoify among the lower classes iniEngland in “Sesame and the Lillies/^ express, his idea of the true sphere of women. He says: ‘iWhat do you think the beautiful word •‘wife’eomes from? It is the greart word in which the Latin and English languages conquer the French and Greek. I hope the French will some day get a word for sit instead of their femme. But what do you think 'it comes from? The great value of the Saxon words is that they meant something. Wife means weaver. You must be either housewives or house moths, remember that. In the deep se11se you mis• ei fcher weave ui0res for11 5 • m1oro;ti er them, or mod c; • . t h ru, am! bring them to der.ay Wherever a true wife comes home • - always around her. The stars may be over her head, the glow worm in the night’s cold grass may be the fire at her feet’ but home is where she is and for a noble woman it stretches far around her, painted with vermillion, shedding its quiet light for those who are homeless. This, I believe, is the woman’s true place and power. No Proscription. The democratic state executive committee refused to adopt a pro scriptive policy as to the qualifica tions of voters in the party prima ries and emphasizefiits 'disposition bv electing a sound mbn# 7 demo crat as its chairman. While the county committees are permitted to make their own regulations,, in accordance with the established democratic precedent, the state committee has done much for unity and harmony by the general rule which fit has laid down. It would have been most unfortunate if the committee had listened to bad advisers and taken any other course. It has practically asserted that a man’s vote is the complete test of a than’s Jealty to a party organization ~aod that a voter may be a democrat though he criticises his party’s .decLarations and seeks to change ibis .party’s position. We have never bad a doubt that the committee^ being iiresponsible for the party’s success, would take this view. It stands to reason that no party could bold together long under a tyrannous dispensa tion which should attempt to make of its adherents mere dumb, driven cattle. It was supreme folly to propose that the doors should be shut upon anybody de claring himself a democrat and his willingness to vote for the nominee.' The democratic party out iu Texas is bound «to suffer from the proscriptive policy adopted by the powers that be, and the Georgia committee has done w r ell to avoid the rock. A pafty needs brave men always and sometimes its bravest ars those who protest against enunciations which they conscientiously regard to be fatal to its real mission.—Tele graph. Shaking Hands. Men shake hands with strangers of their own sex w'ith far greater readiness than they do women. Two men on being presented to one another will frequently ex tone the hand in a grasp of greeting, which gives opportunity to form a general idea of each other’s make-up, and know w he trier tne} are attracted or repulsed. Occa sionally there is a man with suffi cient good nature and courage to refuse another man’s hand with out causing offense: There are men who have been so impressed with the discoveries of bacteriology that they maintain handshaking to be the cause of dissemination of dis ease germs. The bare hand comes in contact with innumerable germs looking for pasturage on some vul nerable spot of our anatomy. A cut or abrasion on the hand leaves a door open for the admission of the enemy. Therefore it is with reason that men argue against promiscuous handshaking out of the home among the men met in business life. Science * long ago frowned upon the practice of pro miscuous kissing, which .prevailed among women. Is the ungloved handshake also doomed?—New York Ledger. 66 Ayer’s Peetoral Save The Children.

An object lesson illustrating the value of the Nicaragua canal is presented iu the Wt®* of the bat- fcieskip*Oregon, now on no Pacific coast. It may be desired to bring the Oregon into Atlantic waters. With the canal, the ship, could come from Ban Francisco to Flori da a distance of 9,000 miles,where as without the canal she would be forced to go around Cape Horn, a distance of 14,000 miles. In case of emergency the saving of these 8,000 mile3 of distance would be of great importance. The last word is said to be the most dangerous. Show this to your wife.
