None but the ignorant prate of the possible dangers of the vote in wom- |an's hands. For over a quarter of a een- tury women have had the full vote in a number of our states, Their governors | thetr legislators and their editors eontinu- | ally call upon the people of the other state to observe the great good results and to | give the ballot to the mothers, the teachers, { the wives who must needs use It to the ad- | vantage of their families, their homes and | themselves. Colorado, with its great educa- tional system, organized by a woman state superintendent, Mrs. Grenfels, leads the ed- | ucational statistics of the nation. Wyom- | ing points to empty jalls and better and | more humane laws. In many states they {have gained the municipal vote, in nearly all the states the school vote. Two states wlill vote on the question of full suffrage this year. Liberty, thank God, has no sex! It Is not | a transient thing. It ennobles those who love |1t aud belongs to those who know it afar. | It Is as precious to me today as it was to | Patrick Henry when he rose like a young god and flung his deathless words In the | teeth of hesitating men. | The humblest woman who begs for her |freedom 1s & patriot. The proudest woman Wwho belittles it is a coward. Any callow schoolboy of 21 might tell you that man was born with a ballot in his hand, and that woman was born with a begging bowl in her hand, that man came into the world with all the rights except one, and that was the right of petition. He likes to pleture man on a throne and woman on her knees. This same fledgling thinker has been known to add that women do not know enough to vote. This type of young man has probably suffered from Inferior parentage, and his teachers and acquaintances must have been of poor grade; but there are enough of his kind in every rural community and down In every crowded ward of a city to make this sort of thing sound as If we had heard it betore. These poor little wits who want to know who will rock the cradle when mamma votes,” have neither a very dignified con- ception of womanhood nor a very ordinar: knowledge of American history. They do not know that their grandmothers melted their spoons, tankards, plates and pots for bullets to win the fight for man’s suffrage- In this country; that while men went to the front with the inspiring fife and drum, the women stayed in lonely, remote cabins to fight famine, savages, wolves and to de- fend the children, the aged and the sick. They suffered privation, travall, bereave- ment. They dug graves and sald their own prayers. When that remnant of an army came back they found the homes waiting. Woman to man they had fought the fight An Important Recruft. The most important of outspoken sup- porters of the cause of equal rights for women Is Assoclate Justice Brewer of the United States supreme court. In a recent paper In the Ladles' World, Justice Brewer declares In favor of woman suffrage and at the same time condemns the methods employed by British suffragettes as injuri- ous to the cause and a reflection on wom- anhood. ““Woman suffrage will come,” he ys, “not fully at once, but by varying steps. Woman's broader edugation, her in- creasing familiarity with business and pub- lic affairs, will lead to it. And why not? The chief reply Is the home. God forbid that it should be jeopardized, for upon it in all fulness depends the best social lite. In fact, it s the basis upon which growing humanity depends. And In it woman must ever be the great factor, the unchallenged queen. But female suffrage will not de- base the home or Issen its power and in- fluence. On the other hand, it will intro- duce a refining and uplifting power Into our political life. It will not stop marriage, nefther will a higher education. “The great natural laws of our being will always assert themselves. Speaking at a Vassar commencement a few years since, 1 overheard one of the graduates say to two otbers, ‘I am simply disgusted; thre: fourths of the girls are engaged already Evidently she was not one of the happy ones. It is to be hoped that afterward she fored better. But woman, conscious of her independence and capacity to support her- self, will demand true mannood in her hus- band. Children will come. However, the glory of the home will not be in the num- ber, but in the quality of the offspring. Race suicide s not the worse offense. There is wisdom in the fable of hare and the lioness. The former, boasting of her litter, sneered at the latter for her single off- spring. ‘Yes,’' was the reply, ‘but he s & lion.' To loed & home with so many chil- dren that the mother cannot give to each the full blessing of a mother’s care and a tention s far worse than race suicide. Not crime, but mutual selt-denial, should, and will, place reasonable limits on the number of the family group. peatV N A Colonial Hustler, “On every hand the multiplying seminar- les for girls were too expensive to meet the needs of the largest class—the daugh- ters of poor people In whom the desire for education was almost a passion,” writes Miss Ida M. Tarbell in the December American Magasine. “80 compelling & need was bound to find & champlon, and did in one of the really great women this country has produced— Mary Lyon—the founder of Mount Holyoke college. “The very intensity of the interest Mary Lyon threw into her new project, her ine abllity to keep quiet about it, finally brought together some friends, and in the fall of 154—almost before she realized it— & committee of men had been formed to ald | her and she was herse't at work be:ging money from house to house. The school | she asked help In establishing was to be one, she explained, where the most rigid economy &hould prevall—where nobody | should profit, where the pupll should do “nul the domestic labof, where everybody | shouta work and sacrifice for the privi- [ lege of iearning in order that they might | better serve God and their fellows. Her [ friends told her that it ws madness, that | she could not get endowment or puplls for ’-uch a school. But het instinct was right. The middle class she wanted to draw from were her friends and rallied to her. “Her success and that of her agent in securing funds was steady By the end ’u( two years over sixty towns had been | Interested, and encugh money pledged to begin & bullding costing $15,00. How lar, & part of this sum had come directly through the efforts or from the savings of hard-working women nobody probably knows. “It was In May, 183 that the trustees felt justified in beginning the bullding. | Scarcely a4 spade of earth was taken out or a brick lald without Mary Lyon's loving inspection. There were many delays and misadventures; the foundations had to be moved, the bricks were questioned, &nd the structure fell, but she never lost THE courage or cheer. She planned for every- thing within—closet shelves, cupboards, sinks, doors, etc She hersalf begged much of the money for the furniture. It was in November, 1537, that Mount Holyoke seminary was opened, the first #irls’ pchool In this country to own its own bulldings and equipment. The school opened with four teachers and 116 puplls, and in ten years it had fourteen teachers and 23 puplis.” Status of En “Women In England have no share in traming or administering the laws under which they live, writes Elizabeth Rolins in Everybody's; and, as s inevitably the case Wwith any factor of & community not recog- nized In its formal organization, English women suffer Injustice under English laws, Yet 1 have heard excellent meaning men say the law showed women favoritism. Thbey belleved it—so blunted had become their sense of justice. Under examination, this “favoritism’ turns out to be the mere rags of survival of the old chattel-view of women, laws llke that of coverture—not framed for the good of the wife, but for the convenience or' greater safety of the hus- band—laws which a saner view of the sexes will do away with, On looking closely into this “‘favoritism' shown women by the English law, we find focts such as these: A man can not only will his property away from his wife and leave her penniless —he can even will his property away from his children and leave them penniless, charges upon a penniless widow. In the absence of a will or settlement, a woman, married or single, can inherit land orly If she has neither father nor brother living. In the case of the death of a son or a daughter the mother inherits nothing from either. The whole of their property, even if it has come from the mother's family, goes to the father, or to the father's next of kin In that home in which woman is told she Is to “rule as queen,” she has not only no control over any portion of the means of livdlihood (unless she owns or earns it herself), or even the material contents of her holise—she has no legal right in or con- trol over her own children, unless (signifi- cant exception) they are born out of wed- lock. She cannot, even if she is & wido: appoint a guardian to act for them after her death, if her husband has already ap- pointed one. The mother may by deed or will pro- visionally appoint a guardian to act jointly with the father after her death. If the court is satisfied that the father Is not fitted to act as sole guardian, it may con- firm the appointment. This last wears an air of quasi-justice, but, like all other laws, it must be interpreted and applied by one gex only, by the sex to whom the father's interests inevitably make the surest appeal ol Shinned Down the Tree. The various presidents and secretaries and assistant secretaries and treasurers and other officers at the New York suffrage headquarters were much excited the other day over a speech made by an antl at the Eclectic luncheon at the Waldorf to ihe effect that women had no business to vote, because they were physically the interior of men and because so few of them could climb a tall ladder with a hod of bricks. Mrs. Oliver H. P. Belmont, by way «f sh Women.

Mrs. Otto Killani, a daughter of Bayard Taylor and a member of the executlve committee of the New York State Assocla- tion Opposed to Woman Suffrage, declares that there is no possibility in England that women will obtain the right to vote for members of Parliament. For several weeks Miss Edith Smith, daughter of J. F. Smith, manager of the Florence company, and her chum, Mrs Mary Harisol, have been working in a mine near Grangeville, Idaho, and have earned money to buy Christmas presents. They said they were tired of the monotony of housework. Gertrude B, Curtis of Bradford. Pa. is the first colored woman dentist.

She believes dentistry is one of the best professions for women. and has encouraged several colored girls to take up the study Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt has apparently reversed her diamond tiara. At the opera recently she wore it as a “barette,” and its daszling curves bound the Psyche knot In a most irresistible fashion.

Mrs. Helen Loring Grenfel is preparing a series of papers showing the workings of equal suffrage in Colorado as an answer to the assertion of the antis that states wherein women are allowed to vote have not been benefited by woman suffrage. Mre. Grenfel s well acquainted with con- ditions in her state, where she served for several terms as state superintendent of public instruction. It was she who intro- duced the system of leasing the lands eet apart for the support of the public schools instead of selling them, and thereby she nearly doubled the revenue. Added Charms to Milady's T s sometimes rather difficult in these days of natural waist lines and flowing draperies to be quite sure whether a cos- tume 1s intended for a tea gown or a ball frock. It would be possible to take a comfortable nap in some of the dinner frocks, or at a pinch to wear a gorgeous negligee to the opera and pe: haps for that very reason the unmistakable boudoir gown has grown dearer to the feminine heart than ever before since tea gowns were invented. But of course. the formal gant negligee still has its place in a well appointed ward- robe, though It 1s by no means as much considered as it was & few years and extrava- ago. at thelr best are made of soft, cling- ing satin with fimy overdraperies on the lines of the Redfern model in the sketch, which s of palest blue, with & tunic of very finely pleate chiffon and a small bolero, & more broad band of lace through which run threads of gold.

The flavor- ife material for these loose gowns is heavy erepe de chine and the more elaborate gowns have a complete overgarment of all- over lace or & long coat made of bands of lace and ribbon, but as a rule they are trimmed merely with bands of lace alter- nating with puffs or tucked bands of the crepe and have wide, softly falling collar and flowing sleeves. Then, of course, there is the albatross gown lined with china silk, the challls and the flannel for econ- omy and practical use. A particularly pretty challis gown is to be had in a soft, dull shade of blue, with wide turn- over collar and cuffs of white, perforated and embroldered and feather stitched in shades of blue silk. This gown s sur- prisingly cheap, too. The price of the Japanese quilted ailk gowns is so much less than it used to be one is puzzled at first to account for it, but it may be ex- plained, perhaps, by the fact that in these SOME OF NEW GOWNS.

It produces an abundant lather, dries quickly und not only cleans the hair and scalp well, but stops all Irritation and gives the scalp a feeling of pleasing freshness. Canthrox makes a delightful shampoo and_will make your hair soft and fluffy. You will nave little trouble then to make your hair look nice. Never use soap for shampooing, as it makes the hair brittle, harsh and takes away the glossy 10ok. Mrs. L, E.: No doubt glasses spoll your looks.

Apply a little of this lotion to your face, neck and arms and see how wonderfully it will im- rove your looks. It will give you a Beautili complexion and make your sal- low or oily skin look fresh and youthful.

The idea is attractive, though It seems rather unpractical to make the garments of pale pink or yellow, when they would be much more suitable to the purpose for which they were designed In darger shades. There are all sorts of loveable little dressing jackets and matinees made of crepe, albatross, silk and satin, lace trim- med and embroidered, long and short. Some of the most coquettish jackets are in the nature of a little elghteenth century coat of bright flowered silk, but these never look so comfortable, The prettiest possible combination 1s made by wearing a short blue or pink crepe jacket over a flowered silk petti- coat and with this a pair of brocaded mules. These bewitching dressing slip- pers are made of bits of brocade that look as though they might have been soved from your great-grandmother's wed- ding gown. Very pretty mules are also to be had made of flowered cretonnes. Apparently the boudoir cap has estab- listed itself ac & necessary part of the negligee ensemble, and what a sensible tashion that is! It will at least enable the woman of fashion to relax from faise hair and elaborate pinnings and puffings for a while and yet to look as charming as ever. Never were there prettier little accessories than these dainty caps. There is the Charlotte Corday model, with the crown embroidered and lace trim med and the deep falling frill edged with lace, with bands and knots of pink rib- bon; and there {s another styls, made in a circle with eyelets embroldered near the edge through which a ribbon is drawn 1o make a mob cap.
