Ever notice how narrow-minded most people are who argue with you? article that the professional woman has proved a failure. Official data show that woman has entered into coin Iietltlwn In practically all the callings and occupations of men, and in indus try, at any rate, her "emancipation” Is now complete. Yet, according to Mrs.’ Newell, "she lias not made good.” She has disappointed her champions. It «eeina that she cannot "stand alone, successful unanxlous, upon her own work.” Almost nowhere In high places do we find women, and now, as in the pre-etnauclpatlon era, “men are the great financiers, cooks, teachers, man agers." The Indictment 1» sweeping and supported by few facts, What is the writer's test of success? Freedom from anxiety? In that case few men succeed. The occupation of high places? There are few such places In any call ing and only a few can reach them. ■The great majority of men must needs tie satisfied with modest work and mod est measures of success. Have women failed as physicians and Burgeons, as managers of hospitals and clinics and sanitariums? Certainly not. In the medical profession women stand very high, though they have had nothing buz indifference and opposition from most men and most women. In teaching men have almost been superseded by wom en, and the latter are not regarded as failures in education even by those who would like to set* an Increase in the number of men in that profession. In letters, in the fine arts, In the thea ter, on the opera and concert stage women are succeeding marvelously. It is unnecessary to name the great wom en singers, the great actresses, the pianists and violinists of the fair sex. It would be equally superfluous to make a list of women novelists, essay ists, poets, critics, etc. To say that the women have no Shakspeare or Beetho ven or Michael Angelo among them Is to repeat an overworked and hack neyed argument that proves nothing— or too much. II qw many men of such genius have there been In history? Have women had sufficient time and opportunity to demonstrate that first- rate work Is beyond their powers? Mrs. Newell herself says that "if brilliant women got half the mental assistance from husbands and brothers that many men get from wives and sisters,” It 1» probable that she would be called upon to dwell on their success. What, then, becomes of the assertion that the pro fessional woman has failed to make good? * RAM S MORN BLASTS. “lie llluela IludilliiK sometimes desirable to bud or chard trees at a time when cleft graft ing can not be done. The work call be done In late August, September and mly October. The purpose of budding trees Is very much the same as that of grafting. The apple, plum and rose bush particularly, may be operated up on to advantage and with good results. The work of budding can be done by n sharp, round-pointed knife and a piece of yarn. Usually the best results follow by selecting a place where the branch Is from % to Inch in diame ter, nnd where the bark is smooth and healthy With the rounded part of the knife cut lengthwise of the branch, lust through the bark, a slit about 11-j inches long, and at the top of this slit cut across about % inch, as shown at a.

The pulse of a horse when at rest beats forty times per minute; of an ox from fifty to fifty-five; of a sheep and a pig about seventy to eighty. The pulse may be felt wherever a big artery crosses a bone. It is gener ally examined in the horse on the cord which passes over the bone of the lower jaw in front of its curved position, or In the bony ridge above the eye; and in cattle over the middle of the first rib; in sheep by placing the hand on the left side, where the beating of the heart may be felt. Any material variations of the pulse from the figures given above-may be considered as a sign’ of disease. If rapid, hard and full it is an indica tion of high fever or inflamnration; if rapid, small and weak, low fever, loss <>f blood or weakness. If slow the pos sibilities point to brain disease, and if irregular to heart troubles. 1388—Earl of Douglas killed at the bat tie of Otterbourne, Northumberland.
