The popular motion picture star has announced her candidacy for the mayoralty and has plunged into the midst of a strenuous campaign which has created considerable talk. Her opponent is' Freddy Bleeker, and the town has been separated on sex lines. Man against woman— that is the political situation. Determined to win, the beautiful woman candidate is working hourly; the women are conducting daily parades down the main streets of the city and are arousing such a pitch of enthusiasm for their cause that the camp of the opposition is becoming fearful. The men are put- ting their heads together in an at- tempt to stem the tide that is setting in favor of the enemy. But the task seems hopetess, for the piatform of Constance has .appealed to the public. Here is Connie's platform: “Chase the glooms that exist in this man-govérned city and cast your votes for the joys that will make it a heaven. “Give the women a chance to show up the men. They have been gov- erning this city for many years—and it isn’t getting any better. “Abolish the wash tubs—or make the men do the work. “Give us maids—or we won’t give you meals.” It will be a great day for the women if Constance -Talmadge . is| elected in “Woman’s Place,” a First PETER B.

The newspapers told recently of the trouble that arose when the authorl- ties of Montevideo refused to .admit to that port a litde dog owned by a woman who had taken 1t there on a passenger steawer, the refusal heing based -upon the. epidemic of rinder- pest prevailing ‘among the:cattle of Urugray. Rinderpest is the most ter- rible of the diseases that affect cat- tle, and is often called simply “cattle plague.” : It affects, so far as is known, only the ruminant, cloven-footed animals— oxen, sheep, goats, camels, etec.—but is so ‘infectious that it may-be car- ried from one herd to another by at- tendants, dogs, cats and birds or by fodder. Therefore, the dog was. ex- cluded from fear not that it would; contract the disease hut that it might contribute to spreading it.

Ifis audience stirred restlessly; his argu- ments were too much for them. “Of what use,” screamed the speak- er, “would our bathtubs be without clean, beautiful water?” As one man the audience turned and left the hall, perhaps to consider out- side the orator’s brainy conundrums. But one ignorant fellow said to an- other: “Phat man has water on the brain!” —Houston Post. THE $10 Raise PETER B.
