Wilborn, of South Carolina, who has been re elected as the head of the organization in the United States : Brethren : We are assembled in the supreme council of the Farmers' Alliance and Industrial Union. The Alliance is now undergoing the great test for its national existence. It has been assailed by enemies from within and without. The enemies without have been shooting constantly over our heads and have been unable to assail us successfully because they know not our pure motives. The ene mies within have planned sedirion and dissension and have been inclined to ride wild and danger ous hobbyhorses. 1 am encouraged (o hope that we have withstood our greatest und most dangerous attack. It is now to be determined whether we will advance and claim our own or whether we will remain in our tents. The necessity (or union has never been so urgent as now. The dangers of our farm homes have never been so close to our doors. The farm homes, true and independent, are the counterpart and palladium of our republic. It is upon the farmer, taught by sur rounding nature to love freedom, that the perpetuity of our liberties must depend. He it was that gave us the foundation of democratic liberty. He freely spent his time,monev. and spent his blood, that this might be a land ot freedom and ~ happiness to all classes, and freed the colonies from foreign rule. Whenever the law and machin ery ot our government are made y and operated in his interest, con tentnTent, happiness and security to lite and property are guaran r teed. When the farm home is * prosperous all other classes are assured of prosperity. The n farmer feeds the world, and should have a say about the government that rules. Keep the tarmers products from is your towns and cities and they ie will be deserted and truly their e busy streets will be grown up in ? grass. The great trains that are now " so heavily loaded with our grain, r wheat, oats, corn, apples, potatoes, cotton and cattle, would be n idle in their sheds it the farmer j should cease from his toil for a short space of twelve months. ,e War is terrible, famine is tera rible, pestilence is terrible, but ie the greatest blight that can befall It this nation is the blight that must ^ tall upon our farmers if we are not watchful. r When hope departs despair enters and breeds mischief beyond e measure. It behooves the producer to be up and doing. It has d not alwavs been so that the n?o y ducer was the slave of the con w sumer. It has not always been that the producer was the lamb upon whom the middlemen and '? speculators could feed and grow d fat. e It haa not always been that the e producer waa the clay on which the money changer could shape e and build up his great fortunes. Hut alaa the times change, and n we go on forever in the old beate en paths. ? We sliould organize, we should ?. unite, we should move as a unit; y our great guide should be equal right to ail, special privilege* to none. We must speak out and '* let our xlomands be known, if, not we "will be lett *in the great I- march of human events.

The corset is the enemy of our race. The Greeks and Romans never used it. An Athenian wo man of the older time would look upon a corset not only as injurious. but as ugly. She merely used agentle.girdle to sustain her bust, lu the middle wges the corset appeared in its icipient stage. For the past hundred years we have had it in all its abuse and abomination. Let us first consider the cot set from a hygienic and physiological point of view, says Mile Tylicka, M. D., a distinguished woman of Paris. ^All medical authorities agree that tLw corset is unhealthful. rhntn vhn t ran fr /-if fhn tinniann ? ? n ? vw?w Wk VUW IIJ glUUD U* slothes dwell strongly upon this ; point. Whet makes matters still worse from.a hygenic as well as from 1 Dther aspects is that many women put on their corsets, when they get up in the morning and 10 not doff them until they retire> 1 for the night. And the curious thing this abominable practice is that women of fashion seem not to know that the stethodesmon, girdlet, of the anoient Greeks, is much more beautiful and becoming. Women's bodies are made to look long or short by means of the corset. And it is not merely in appearanoe that their bodies sre longer. The corset having been worn for generations, the women of corset wearing ances-' 1 tors have longer bodies than the ladies of 100 years ago. Heredity tells physically as well as morally. The corset in Iures me scomacn. It causes wbat is called the movable kidney, as shown in the recent case of the noted actress, Yvette Ouilbert. It hurts the liver. It makes people look bloodless. It disturbs All the functions of the lower part body. The corset imprisons the organism of the wearer in shocking fashion. If it were imposed i as a punishment, like the instruments of tortue of a bygone age, it would be classed among these latter. The corset pats the surface of the body in the worst possible condition from a physiological point of view. The squeezed parts of the skin have a deathly color. The chest of a woman continues to grow large from 16 until she is 25 years old. The corset deforms 1 the chest. . ^ The continuoas struggle be- 1 tween the natural form of the ishest and form caused by the coriet is most injurious. It rounds the chest. It frequently makes 1 the transversal diameter equal to the diameter from the front to hack. * Difficult, indeed, is it to find a woman of from 25 to 30 years i who is not more or less deformed hy the corset. The corset enfeebles the breathDiscovered by a Woman.

In squeezed cheat* tow the physical conditions of respir- of 1 ation are not favorat"'^ for the thri vivifying of blood, which, of chil course, is necessary to produce ^e8 heat for the proper support of life. A il~ - -i 1 aujuu^ me puysioiog'cai troubles caused by the corset one of ^ the most painful, though not the j]^0 gravest, is indigestion and its ac- suff companying evils. Fiel \^ien women begin to grow f08! stout these evils are intesified. There are mAny instances of wo- t^e men who in their opposition to the obesity have died in the arms of a b< their maids. They have been ^rt laced to suffocation. The pressure of a corset upon a growing girl's figure is iuconceiv- ^ abjy injurious. It leads to many jn_ irregularities and displacements. wjjj Young girls become pale, blood- ? less and sickly because of their rail corsets. Young and old suffer gnc from this villanous article of , nin dress. Now what do I propose as a remedy and as a substitute? First, the absolute rejection of . ana the corset for the many reasons already mentioned Second, its replacement by a Ul girdle of strong cloth supporting mo1 the bust and adjusted to the size ^ of the wearer. Third, suspenders should be ^0< worn, particularly when a woman 'ier is thin. V _ Fri The Appetite of a Goat. tati Is envied by all poor dyspep \ tics whose Stomach and Liver j^u| are out of order.
