The Filipina has many admirers who predict she will make good if she gets the vote, just as ste has made good in the very important role she has oc cupled in the family and business life of the Philippines ever since the in- troduction of Christianity in the is lands three centuries ago, “America's advent in the Philippines discovered a wonderfully interesting. responsive little being, the Filipino wo. man,” writes one American concerning * MRS. JAIME C. DE VEYRA, A Filipina who ie doing important work for her people in the United States, the Filipina, “Mothering the only Christian people in the far east, she holds a place of authority, love and re- spect in family end social life that is not accorded to women in countries neighboring the islands, or in India, China or Japan.” A Filipina who {fs doing an impor. tant work for her people in the Unit- ed States {s Mrs. Jaime © de Veyra, wife of the resident commissioner from the Philippines. Not only has she fre quently addressed the wives of mem- bers of Congress in Washington as to conditions in the new Philippines, but she has visited verious cities, speaking before women's clubs. The senora beautiful gowns of her home land, a delicate pineapple fabric, hand-woven and hand-embroidered, shaped like a gauzy-winged butterfly. “In many ways the path of the wo men of the Philippines is easy,” says Senora de Veyra. “Laws made by her have combined the best of American and Spanish precedents, and she has come into her own with far less strug- gle than either her American or her Spanish sisters, Married women may hold property in severaity, They are guardians of their own children. These are vested rights and cannot be taken away from ber, “Professional opportunities are as good for women as for men in the land from which I come, The Filipina is by custom, the dictator in the home, She ts usually thé keeper of the family treasure. Practically all of the small shops {un Manila are conducted by wo- men. Women are already members of Philippine Bar Association—a thing still impossible in Great Britain. They are also successful as physi- clans.” Life is really a fifty-fifty proposition for women tn the Philippines, accord- ing to the senora, who has taken such | # a prominent part in women's work there that she has sometimes been re- ferred to as “the little mother of them all.” She wee the assistant matron of the Normal Hall Dormitory for Girls when she married. She speaks Eng- Ush fluently and puts her little talks “over” with real tact She has four children, An evidence of her enter- prise was her action last year in mas- tering shorthen4 so she might be “use ful to ber husband at home tn the eve gings in case he wishes to dictate e tow letters ora speech” = tt i AVIATORS HAVE SIXTH SENSE Proof That the Human Body Is More Highty Endowed Than Has Hith- erto Been Supposed. The London Lancet asks which of the five senses could have played a predominant share in the nonstop transatlantic flight of Alcock and Brown. “Sight, even when the moon was visible, was practically nullified by the constant cloud and storms of sleet or hail; hearing must gradually have lost Its acuteness in the course of 16 hours of exposure to the tremendous din of engines and propeller—it is re- corded that both officers were deaf on dismounting; the vestibular sense seems to have been no trusty guide, inasmuch as the pilot admitted Invol- untary indulgence tn stunting and seems to have looped the loop with- out being aware that his vertical di- rection was changing. “On the other hand, the aviators’ horizontal direction must have been marvelously precise throughout, as, with no landmarks to guide them, their destination was reached without a@ hitch, when a swerve of a singde de gree to one side or the pther of the direct Hine would have lost them their objective. “Presumably the imperfect sense records supplemented each other in nervous systems long trained to rapid and impromptu adjustment.” It seems that the human body is en- dowed with a sense of stability and balance that depends not upon any one of the “five senses” and cannot be localized entirely in the labyrinth of the ear. Some men possess this sense in greater degree than others. NOT IMPRESSED BY SPHINX Modern Reporter Refuses to See Any- thing Wonderful in the Lady's Appearance. Admitting that “a mouth 7% feet wide is not a rosebud, nor an ear 4% feet high a seashell,” a modern re- porter in Egypt 1s fmpressed by the fact that the Sphinx dves not seem nearly so impressive as he had ex- pected. After all, the creature ts only 150 feet long and Its face only 14 feet wide! Perhaps the environment made a @ifference, for the Sphinx, as she today rests in the sands of the desert, has a very different stage setting from that of a few years ago. The black tents of the Bedouin have gone, and their place taken by the white and khaki tents of the British, pitched north and west of the Pyramids. Tro! ley cars run to within some hundred yards of the Sphinx, and automobiles travel the motoring road to the base of the Great Pyramid; from the apex of the Pyramid of Cheops four long antennae of a British wireless appa ratus stretch down to the ground. For a short time during the troubles In Egypt the neighborhood of the Sphinx saw a reversion to lawlessness, and Bedouins only the other day swooped in from the desert and attacked a par ty of sight-seeing British at the Pyra- mids. Dwaffed by the Pyramids, the latest visitor who has recorded his impression found the Sphinx “disap pointing,” and decided that so far from having a “cryptic expression,” her stone countenance has no expres. sion whatever.—Christian Science Monitor. Red Sandstone. Colorado is full of wonderful red sandstone rocks, They are lined and grooved and stippled over with fine dots; they are worn and hollowed and curved into innumerable grotesque shapes; from the tiny stone which you can hold in your hand to the sharp colossal wall, hundreds of feet high, which no man ean climb, there Is not an inch which does not look as if for millions of years it had been worked by tools. Yet no hand, no tool, has been there. Grains of sand have done it all—grains of sand blowing and wears, in giving her talks, one of the | ¢ddying in wind currents. — Helen Hunt Jackson. ¢ FIRST NATIONAL BANK ——--OF— Cottonwood, Idaho Don’t Stare e UP e the steps of SUCCESS But Step e UP @ the Stairs by Opening an Account with this The Greatest Banking Association Ever Devised Tip Top is made from the pick of plump Camas Prairie wheat. 1 For prices on chickens see T.
