From the dawn of the earlist history up to within a few years past men considered women inferior beings. Woman had fevr rights that her husband was bound to respect. Too frequently the wife was even less considered than a slave. A slave was worth so many hundreds of dollars, and if not treated with some little consideration might take "French leave" and cause a Considerable monetary loss. Of late the attitude of Christendom to American citizens are not now in aDy mood to listen lo or enierain any suggestions that emanate from German, or French, or Ivalian, or Russian, or Turkish, or Sj.aniSh quarters, i So iet t'he Pt'mocrats, if think it advis ft sk.T STERLING PIANOS Quality tells its own story.

mosl unair and unjUst iaWs thai has ever on ltle propjr owners. The as 6essment is levied on the property lor im provernent8 in the fu'ture.

You may never get them, and still you ch.arged the i) per cent, ail the same, un'tll the bill is paid. I have heard of a case where property owners paid in the ana never pc me hn rhe ni.inp? once in ClU'.

CUCe ox h.o nd cannot get! K.l 1.1." This is what I call an outrage. It seems to me thai, tne should go ou ana ao tne necessary work and when the work is com then make 'the necessary assessment, and if it is not paid within thirty days from that time then charge the a per cenl. per i annum. This would give the city better stree i and the people would have confidence, and feg; were getting something for money expended. But this plan of making a man pay high ra'te of Interest for something he i has no bail or may never get, and on the other hand, if he pays iu hie money, it may from one to five years and all that time he gets no interest or benelit of his money, and neither does he get the improvements.

I speak now from experience. I am assessed some for improvemen'te in the Twenty ninth Ward on Ocean avenue. I have not paid and am charged per cent, irom tne t.me the assessment was levied ias. spiiug. The city appears to be in a tangled state of affairs, and since Brooklyn became a part of New York it cannot git 'that is needed.

I understand some liO.OOU have been paid in for this Improvement of Ocean avenue, and still no signs of any work being done for the monev. If the property owners were sure of fretting the improvements they are look value received or not. As one of many who have had to submit to unjust and unfair assessment lawe, I would like to hear from others on this subject. I must eav that Alderman Mclnnes is 'Ac right man in the right place. JOHN BERRY.

Brooklyn, October 5, 1S9S. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: The measure of Alderman Mclnnes in reference to the city paying interest on pai in assessments, introduced at the session of the Board of Aldermen to day and recorded in your paper is beyond a doutot a very commendable and equitable one. I am the owner of two lots in the Twenty ninth Ward which were taxed over a year ago for the purpose ot macadamizing the avenue on which they are locatea. I did not have the money at the Unlt, tt as t0 piace a mortgage the Aarae j0 eIlaDle me to pay this tax. I m)t on.y hav t0 pay interest on this mort gage, at the time had to pay tl tor legal expenses, etc.

not counting the loss of interest on tfiis money. I am not opposed to improvements nor to the paying for the same, but When this work has not been inaugurated at this late day I fail to see the equity of this legal transaction. Hundreds of small property owners in Brooklyn have suffered in this way who could ill afford it, and remedy cannot come too soon for those good citizens who are struggling to own homes of their own, as also for the self preservation of their po litical antagonists. who constantly retard them in their laudable ambition.

O. HOME. Brooklyn. October 4, 1SHN. EOS, THE OLD 13TH'S SAKE.

This Republican Will Support the Democratic Candidate. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Noticing the enthusiasm with which the public received the Brooklyn troops during the parade Saturday I could not help feeling mad at the absence of our old Thirt aenth. I am one of the few who remained ai Canrp Having no position, I could accept! the conditions of our esteemed adjutant and bo mustered in the service "lo fill, organizations in camii," and thus be an: unwiliing party to the iviping out of one of ln hrSt recipients in the country. Oh. if iv only knew then what we know now we would have stood by our organization, as it has been proven that men of families and business interests were not required to make the sacrifices, as the conditions did not warrant it.

Take, for example, the Ninth Regiment of New York, which left the armory with 900 men and camped at Peekskill. Only 1S! of fhese men were mustered into the service. The balance were raw recruits; yet this regiment is known as the Ninth egiment of New York. No wonder Colonel Seward resigned when he saw his old regiment torn asunder not by rifle balls or sickness, but by the incompetency of the Republican party of the state through its adjutant general, C. Whitney Tillinghast.

It is the wish of almost every enlisted man of the Thirteenth Battalion to 'be mustered out. Let ns have an opportunity to get out and work against the party which has disrupted the National Guard of uhls slate after had attained the highpst perfection.

We have been informed that upon our return the regiment will be reorganized under Colonel Luscomb. Don't think we are foolish, our organization was disbanded for i. obedienee of orders which were never published by Colonel AVat son. and the Governor did not "nave sand enough to right the wrong. Now, I bxpe that every man who has ever worn the uniform of the National Guard wiii express his voice and hi iitinii nts 'by supporting the Democratic candidate for governor.

Woman has taken her place aa the co equal of man. Her new position ia due not only to her mental advancement, but also to physical Read the novels of a century and a half ago and you find the heroine always described as a delicate, fragile creature, who fainted and had her stays cuts at every possible opportunity and was always having her hands slapped, water sprinkled in her face and smelling salts applied to her nostrils. A woman of this description was hardly fitted for co equality with man.

Where thre ia much smoke there must be some fire, and undoubtedly there must be some truth in the novelists' descriptions of these heroines of a century and a half ago. Woman is becoming stronger, healthier and more self reliant because she is learning to know herself. Most weakness, fragility and ill health in women is due to weakness or disease of the distinctly feminine organism. Not only women, hut their husbands also are beginning to comprehend this fact. Nowadays when a well informed man finds that his wife is suffering from nervousness and headaches, that she is irritable, fretful and despondent, and complains of backaches and pains and dragging down sensations he realizes that she is suffering from some ailment peculiar to her sex.

If he loves his wife he will not 6cold and grumble and get in a temper himself, but will see that she promptly has the advice of some specialist of repute. The best and most widely known specialist in cases of this description is Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.

Y. For thirty years lie has been chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. and with the aid of a staff of nearly a score of medical assistants, he has prescribed for many thousands of suffc rincr women. His wide experience in this class of troubles led to his discovery of a marvelous medicine for women, known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Proscription.

It acts directly on the delicate and important organs concerned in wifehood and maternity. It makes them strong and healthy. It soothes pain, allays inflammation, heals ulceration and stops debilitating drains. It fits for healthy wifehood and almost painless maternity. It completely and permanently cures the special troubles that have aggravated and broken down the whole system, with the result that the general health is quickly recovered.

It gives the tortured nerves a rest and permits them to recover their tune and steadiness. It has transformed thousands of weak, sickly, incompetent invalids into strong, healthy, happy wives and mothers. This great medicine is for sale by all good medicine dealers, and the honest ones will not urge you to take some inferior substitute for the sake of a little added profit. I commenced to take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription something over two years ago, and am glftu to testify that it is a God send to womankind," writes Mrs.

M. H. Hausrote. of Magnolia, Morgan Va. "I have been troubled with indigestion for years, and am now able to say your medicine has cured me entirely.

The three children who were born before I began to take your medicine did not live long; they were vcTy delicate, buthose born since (three in all) are verv hearty, 'and that convinces me that your medicine just what it is said to be and great deal more. 1 could tell enough to fill a book about the way I suffered and the way your medicine acted, indeed, every woman on the globe ought to know about your medicine." The home treatment of almost every known disease and every kind of an accident is given in Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Advistr. It is written in plain, every day English. It contains ioo3 pages and over illustrations.

It used to cost Si. 50; now it is free.
