Mrs. Aggie Meyer, a Kansas ' City woman, is under sentence of death by hanging. The crime of which she has been proved guilty is' the murder of her hus band. She was assisted in the ' crime by her paramour and the details of the . affair was most cold-blooded. . As is usual in cases where a woman is under sentence of death there is considerable, hysteria in evidence and, many really good people preach of the community disgrace attached to th e hang ing of a woman. There is no denying that it is an awful thing to be compelled to take the life of a woman for a crime that she has committed it is equally aw ful to inflict the . death sentence on a man for a like crime. . " ,,. There is a shrinking from pun ishing a woman as one would a man, and this feeling is domin ant in the hearts of all'good men. But one must be just and the mind must not be swayed by sen timent. ' A good man's instinct is to shield woman, but he can hot pass two- sets of laws pre scribing punishment for the same crime one for woman, the other for man. God knows it is a pity that wo man in her high place in the hearts of men should stoop to cold-blooded and premeditated . crime of any nature. It is like wise deplorable that man, with his more rugged nature, should commit criminal acts, but the punishment must remain the same or there is no justice. It is sad that it should be so, perhaps, but it is just. 1HINK RIGHT. All who have visi'ed the Lewis and Clark Fair agree that it is fine, that, it is a credit to, Port land, t6 Oregon, in short, to the entire West. That this is true there is no doubt, but as to the conditions after the Fair that is different. If the people of this state as a whole are. to be benefitted by the Fair they must take matters in their own hands and in no weak -or timid way. If they set de termined that there shall be no stagnation in conditions 'and bus iness affairs as entail of: the Ex position all will be well But if they allow themselves to figure on business depressioh,Isuch as is likely to follow, as sentiment, . healthy 'or ''unhealthy, cuts ho . in considerable figure when backed by the .whole people. In many -affairs of a public na ture stfccess depends upon the way the public look at the mat ter and the, fact remains . that.it is ottenr a case oi . tnmising makes it so." 'If such be true, it behooves the people ta4hink rio-Vir Triia is , nnr. nlwnvs r ip case, bt there is no denying that public s ntiment for or against cuts a figure in affairs. SCARCELY DARE. Many people incline to the be lief that Germany and France will have ' a game of war before the Morrocco 'question is settled There is a s trong war feeling in France; but there really is no promise of war at present. That the .French people would embrace death for the glory of wresting from Germany the prov inces of Alsace and Loraine there is no question. But just at present France dares nut attempt a trial, ' although sorely tempted. Rus sia is an ally of France arid the feebleness of Russia is so appar ent, Germany does not hesitate to take advantage of conditions. ; France never has and never will forgive Germany for taking from, her Alsace and Loraine, and tKefdream of every loyal French mis' to retake those provinces But the , cool heads of France know that the Tvrpspnr. ? nnr. r Iia . , . , . , u r" V'1 " . , B' " ls Probable that their Counsel will prevail, r ranee is in such a posi- tion that she must accept humilia tion to a certain degree. She is, to some extent, so far as the Mor rocco incident is concerned, in the hands of her friends and her enemies. Mrs. Eddy's Home. Mrs. E. W. S. Pratt, of this city, has requested that we pub lish an excerpt from the Boston Herald on Mrs. Eddy, the found er of Christian Science, and the following:, relating to her home was submitted: Among these was the gold scroll on which was inscribed the invitation from theMother Church in Boston for Mrs. Eddy to visit and accept the edifice as a testir monial from the loving hands of 4000 members. This scroll rests in a case upon a table which is covered bva silk embroidered cov er brought from Pekin by Mrs. Conger, wife of the former minis ter to China, who, as is well known, is a devout Christian Scientist, and practised her faith among the frightened prisoners at the siege of Pekin during the uprising ,of the Boxers. Under this table is a large rug of ostrich tips sent from South America. On another table lies a copy of "Bohemia" dane in white vellum, beautifully printed and illuminated, being the sec ond impress of an imperial edi tion of 50 copies of this, work, this number being especially printed for Mrs. Eddv. There is a large tapestiy painting on one of the walls, of Jesus as the Good Sheperd, with the inscription, "His banner over me is love." Another painting ' which is par ticularly prized by Mrs. Eddy, having been given her by a stu dent, is "The Anger of the Resurrection." On the table in the back parlor lie the two silver trowels which were used in laying the. corner stones of the churches of Con cord and Boston. The trowel used for the Concord church was given Mrs. Eddy "by .Lady Vic toria Murray, daughter of Lord Dunmore. . In the library is a loving cno presented by the executive mem bers of ' the Boston Church. This is a beautifully embossed silver .urn, in the rim of which ' are set 12 large pearls." There are also some miniatures in this room of great value and beauty. There are portraits of Kins Ed ward and Queen Alexandria of England, and paintings of "The Medonna and Child," and "The Holy Family, "done by a pupil of Raphael, and presented to Mrs. Eddy by Lord - Adinger. ' His crest is on the back of the frames, and under this is written, "From Abingeran admirer, to the Rev. Mary Baker Eddy." - . ; t v On the wall bangs-a Persian rug which was wrought for an empress, and which is valued at $5000; but .no.., one couid. quite tell its history. ,-,The 1 us - was woven by hand, and required r8 vears in the making.

Chicago, III., Oct. 7, 1902. ' Eight months ago I was so ill that I 'was compelled to lie or sit : :dowii nearly all the time. My ' stomach was so weak and npset that I could keep nothing on it and I vomited frequently. I could not urinate without great -pain and I coughed so much that my throat and lungs were raw and . sore. The doctors pro- nounced it Bright's disease and others said it was consumption. It mattered little to me what s they called it and I had no de sire.to live. A sister visited me from St. Louis and asked me if I had ever tried Wine of Cardui. -1 told her I had not and she bought a bottle. I believe that it saved nay life. I believe many women could save much suffer ing if they but knew of its value. v Don't you want freedom from pain? .Take Wine of Cardui and make one -me effort to be well.
