good effect upon their children ;

"Glstorla is the best remedy for children of
which 1 am acquainted. I hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children , and use Castoria in
stead of the variousquack nostnimswhich are
destroying their loved ones , by forcing opium ,
morphine , soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats , thereby sending
them to premature graves. "

SOME GREAT WOMEN WHO WERE
PRECOCIOUS CHILDREN.
Some Notable Examples Which Go to Prove
That Ability Is Apt to Beveal Itself as
Early With Girls as With Boys-Some of
Them Had to Strugglr.
"I wonder if most ; famous women
were as ambitio s and gave signs of future -
ture greatness , . their early youth as
famous men ? " asked a thoughtful looking -
ing girl , dropping her book , "Tho Lives
of the Great Musicians , " in whicth with
delight she had been reading of the boy
Mozart.
"Most great women have been pre.
cocious , " answered her aunt , whose
busy brain possessed the charming faculty -
ulty of storing up all manner of interesting -
esting information against a rain of
questions from her cli ver niece. "Let
us go back to that sweetest character in
English history , Lady Jane Grey , and
we will find she was only 13 years old
when that learned scholar and fine gentleman -
tleman , Roger Ascham , found her reading -
ing Plato's 'P1Ia don' in the original
Greek while the rest of the family were
off on a hunting party. But it was not
with a knowledge of Greek little Lady
Jane was satisfied. She spoke French ,
Latin and Italian fluently , writing them
also , and translated easily from Hebrew ,
Chaldee and Arabic. When her father
took her to court , they found with astonishment -
tonishment that this demure country
bred girl was a far finer scholar than
young Edward 'VI , then a clever boy
under the first tutors in England. Yet
with all her knowledge of literature and
languages Lady Jane embroidered
charmingly , saris to several instruments
that she played very well , danced and
wrote easily and gracefully.
"Felicia Hemans published her first
collection of poems when she was only
14.
"Angelica Kaufman , the beautiful
woman and gifted artist , who painted
the portraits of royalties , when only 11
used her brush far better than her father -
ther , who was an artist by profession.
"Mme. Roland never remembered
when she learned to read , for at 4 years
of ago she was greedily perusing any
books that came to her hand. Dancing
and music she readily acquired , but
geography and Latin were her favorite
studies. As a girl of 7 showould eagerly -
ly rise at 5 o'clock in the morning to
get to her books , and so dearly did she
love reading she carried her volume of
'Plutarch's Lives' to church when she
was 11 years old and secretly read it
during the long prayers.
"There is not a more touching story
of a child's quick 1uiud starved of its
proper food than Caroline Herschel.
Her mother was a stupid woman , who
kept her daughter purposely so busy
about household work she could neither
study nor practice on her violin she dearly -
ly loved and in which her father wished
to instruct her. It was with an aching
heart and tearful eyes Caroline plied
her needle , while her father and his
sons held their little family concerts in
which the girl longed to join. She begged -
ged to be allowed to study French with
her brother , and dancing also , but this
her mother forbade , though her gentle ,
clever father was anxious his Caroline
should have a goad education. It was
not until later in life , when her beloved
brother William , the great astronomer ,
sent for her to join him in England ,
she had any opportunity to exercise her
fine mind.
"Mary Somerville says that as a little -
tle girl she had averybad memory , and
at 10 years of ago was sent to a boarding -
ing school , where the chief lesson for
each day was a page of Johnson's Dictionary -
tionary committed to memory. She
never excelled at school , and yetathome
no one sympathized a little later with
her desire to study Latin except an uncle -
cle , who gave her some valuable in-
structiou. She was very much interested
in two celestial globes the village
schoolmaster taught her to use , and yet ,
on the whole , she was rather in awe of
the big constellations , whose brightness
reminded her of lightning , of which she
was desperately afraid. At length she
persuaded her brother's tutor to buy her
au algebra and Euclid , which she
studied at night until her mother , in
horror at the idea of a girl wasting
time on studies meant for boys , deprived
ier of a candle to read by , and her father -
ther feared she might go crazy. It was
long after that she really found the courage -
age and sympathy to take up her great
studies in earnest.
"It was as a pianist George Eliot waa
noted at her school , and with the most
amazing ease she acquired languages ,
yet as a very little girl she showed no
great promise , much preferring a romp
with her brother to her books.
"Fannie Burney , who is also known
as Mme. d'Arblay , published her first
and cleverest novel when she was only
15 , and yet she was 8 years' old before
earning her alphabet and scarcely received -
ceived any regular education at all.
"Rachel , you must remember , was a
girl just turned into her teens when she
borrowed a volume of Racine from a
Jewish peddler in old clothes. On
ng the great French tragedies she deg
tided to become an acress , and this
poor , pretty little Jewess , the youngest I
of seven children , who had began life
as a street singer , on her second appearance -
ance on the French stagewas greeted as
great genius. So , you see , my dear ,
ability isapt to reveal itself as early with
girls as boys , and these are a very , very
few of the world's great women who
eyed books in the nursery and gave the
mast glorious promise while still in
aort frocks.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

And now there is talk of substituting
girls for boys at the district telegraph
offices. At the Chicago headquarters of
one of these companies the matter is be-

eral , the humorous writers w ill have to
