There Is only one territory of any size and never has been but one occupied by any considerable popula tion from which woman Is absolutely excluded. Yet such a place exluts to-day nml has existed for centuries. As far back as (lilstory reaches, to all females It has been forbidden ground. This country without women :s situ ated on a bold plateau, between the old peninsula of Acte, In the Grecian archipelago, and the mainland. Here lu tha midst of cultivated Holds and extensive woodlands dwells a monas tic confederation of Greek Chrlstlsiin. wHh twenty-throe convt mts, and num bering more than 7,000 souls.

Put to Death Under Ihe So-Called Finest School System In the World. "Bethlehem was little among the thousands of Judah," writes Mrs. Lew Wallace in the February Ladies' Home Journal. "We arc told that probably not over thirty children fell under the order of Herod. The murder of the innocents of the nineteenth century is j a march to untimely graves, not by ! order of a wrathfull King, but under; j what is claimed to be the finest free school system in the world. Go into any public school and you will see girls pallid as day lillies, and boys with fat chests and waxen skin that has been named the school complexion. Every incentive and stimulus is held out: dread of blame, love and praise, prizes, medals, badges, the coveted flourish in the newspapers the strain never slackens. Watch the long lines filing past, each pupil carrying books three, four, five to be studied at night in hot rooms of fierce, sight-des-troying lights. Time was when spec tacles went with age. They are no sign of age now. Many must wear glasses to help eyes worn prematurely old by night work. "Said a thoughtful father, 'My child ren have no child life. They are strain ing up a grade, talking about exami nations. When is their playtime it not now, and what has become of the light-hearted boys? School is never out. Kven in the fields the butterfly and the tree-toad are turned into object lessons, and the grasshopper is torn to pieces in order to be instruct ive. When I was a boy, and school let out, we were gay and free, We studied in schooltime, and in playtime there was no thought of anything but play.' I do not undervalue education; it is greatly to be desired, but over education is slaying its thousand. The burden is books. The tasks im posed on the young are tearful. The effort seems to be to make textbooks as difficult and complicated as possible, instead of smoothing the hill so high and hard to climb." What she was told -'I was severely afflicted with salt rheum. I also felt weak and sick. I was told there was no medicine that could cure me, but I began taking Hood's Sarsap arilla and it gave me strength.
