Does she ever get her pockets picked, or lose noney on a “little game?" If she has a roll of money with her, does she ever fla-ih it out when sh a wants to buy a cake of chewing gum? Isn’t it a fact that she is wiser with money when she is traveling than the men and more to be trusted ? Instead of a woman having a roan along to “protect’'her, the daily papers prove that every man who goes away from home should have a woman to act as guardi tn. and keep him trom making a bigger fool of himself than he naturally is. You are a Democrat. You are a Democrat and. of course, want a democratic newspaper. The Chicago Dispatch is the great democratic weekly newspaper of the country. It advocates the readoption of the platform and the renomination of William Jennings Bryan. There has never been a political campaign that will equal importance that of the one to be fought next year. The republican party, backed by the money power of this country and Europe, is alert and aggressive. Flushed with the victory of three years ago it will seek by every means in its power to maintain its supremacy. Democrats must be up and doing. They must wage an unceasing war upon their enemies. In no better and effective way can be done than by the circulation of this good sound democratic newspapers. The publisher of the Chicago Dispatch, will send to every new subscriber for three months a’ copy of the Chicago Dispatch for ten cents. If you are not already taking this great political weekly, send in ten cents at once. Y’ou should not only do this yourself, but you should induce all vour friends to join with you. By a little effort you can easily raise a club of ten or twenty subscribers. The Chicago Dispatch is endorsed by William Jennings Bryan and other democratic leaders.

SCARCITY OF CATTLE Mexicans Want an Export Duty Levied—Scarcity of Meat. Vera Cruz, Sept. 9 —There is growscarcity of beef here, owing to the large exportation of cattle to Cuba ever since the war, and the price has risen to such a point that the poor people cannot afford to buy it. All over the country the price of beef has materially advanced, aud reports from Mexico City show that there is much complaint among the press and the people. The newspapers here are clamoring for a heavy export duty on cattle to prevent their shipment such as has been lately imposed by the government of Guatemala, where the country was being drained of beef cattle. Guatemala now imposes a duty of S2O per head ou all cattle shipped abroad, and allows imported cattle to come in duty free. THE LAFAYETTE MONUMENT Work Cannot Be Effected by Any Criticism of Dreyfus verdict. Chicago, Sept. 12. — The Methodist Ministers’ association of Chicago, at the regular meeting yesterday, put itself on record as protesting against the injustice of the verdict in the Dreyfus case. A committee was appointed to consider the appropriateness of contributing money for a Lafayette monument as a gift to France. Robert J. Thompson, secretary of the Lafayette monument commission, says he feels little concern over any action growing out of the Dreyfus decision. ■‘The work is at a stage when criticism cannot effect it in the least,” said he. “VVe have collected more than a total of $103,000, and have no need of assistance from religious organizations and have received none.”

sinKliered Them. There's no art to tell how many languages a tongue can speak by looking its owner In the face. An American woman was met recently in a narrow hallway of the American embassy by four young attaches of foreign legations. They stepped aside to let her pass and. thinking she did not understand French, made a few audible observations. “Look nt her yellow dress. It s very pretty.” said No. 1. , ~ ••Yes. but she l.as o;i white gloves, answered No. 2. • She has good teeth.” said No. 3. “And an enormous mouth, added No. 4. -And she understands French perfectly." said tile owner of the enormous mouth, turning suddenly upon them, "and would like to say that her ears are even bigger than her mouth. This in French and wi h such an air of giving personal information to nobody Fn particular that it was quite as if she had been kindly helping strangers to information oct of a guide book. 1 do not think 1 have ever seen four limiter looking young men. They bad just enough presence of mind to tlee the premises.—St. Louis Globe-Demo-A Nice Little Elopement. “There’s a rather runny circumstance connected with the elopement here last week." remarked the loquacious landlord of the tavern in a remote Sussex village, says an English paper, addressing a cyclist who had stopperl for refreshment. “A young man who hadn't known her so very long ran away with the squire's daughter, and a day or two later the old gentleman sent this message by letter to his new son-iu-law: ■• ‘AU is forgiven. Come home.’ “To this the young fellow telegraphed the reply: “ ‘All won't be forgiven until I have kicked you well for letting me elope with your daughter. Y’ou'd better not be at home when 1 come, that's all!’ ”

Wifely Consideration. “I've decided not to get that new dress we talked of." announced the little wife, whose husband has a big bank account and makes large deposits every week. "But I want it, dearie, just as much as you do. Go ahead and order it.” "No. I appreciate your kindness, but I'm not the one to be extravagant when economy is demanded. I saw your bankbook this morning, and we are drawing out money a dozen times where you deposit once. I'll wait till next year.”—Detroit Free Press. Legal advertising. OF ADMINISTRATRIX.
