They didn't look like happy club women's hubbies. Once in a while soma one would bring word from the elghth floor, where they dared not venture, about the returns, and then all would lapse into a sviiloquy, probably on women's ways. 4 The voters were faultlessly gowned for the clash, Any owning Daughters of the Revolution, Mexican, Civil, Span- ish or other war buttons, pins, brooches or rfbbons or decorations for honors as suffragists were fully equipped. Sousa has sone decorations, but his medals don’t show how his grandfather's great- grandparent died. Tammany Hal might improve in this respect. What the Man Thought Then the campaign managers—Mrs, Allen and Mrs. Lewis—tall, handsome, otately club leaders, were attired in a mournful Wack. Not like Murphy and McCarren, they were observed speaking ~once, Incidentally, Mrs. Lewis was described as the “best looking woman ,there” by a rude man who squirmed into the sanctum. Mra. Lewis's rivals likely admitted this, but not out loud, M William Cummings Story, the chairman, wielded the “big. stick” with indifferent success. The only difference between her and President. Roosevelt was that she was present and he was absent and he won and she lost. Mrs. De Rivera's friends plainly stated that Mrs. Story flattered Mra, Brown when her year’s activities were rehearsed on the convention floor and maintained a discreet silence after Mrs. De Rivera's report was read. This, they held, indi- | cated administrative “backing. It| also showed that "canned" conventions | won't go with women | Of course, some men—J. Aspinall! Hodge, H. L. J. Porter, Donald Chal- mers and Robert Watchorn—spoke, | but only Mr. Hodge got any attention. He sald “Fellow citizens (laughter) you are now active politl (ories of good, good).

M. WITMARK & SONS Special Offer Dept, 144 West 37th St. New York City, “For Truth to Tell” Unquestionably the best of the newspaper almanacs is that published by The New York World, It is all that it pretends to be, an en- cyclopedia of ready information, the kind of information that most people want and cannot find so conveniently anywhere else. It is a reference book that should be on every desk. We have put it to innumerable tests, and al- ways with the most gratifying results, We have found the index clear and comprehensive, and the information almost invariably accurate, far more accurate, in fact, than that contained in most reference books. The World Almanac and Encyclopedia for 1909 contains in its 880 pages more than 15,000 facts and figures re- lating to almost every subject that is likely to occasion dispute. The price, 25 cents, at all news stands, or 35 cents by mail, puts it within reach of all, While the Union is ayes glad to answer the many questions of its readers, it sometimes feels that much valuable time would be saved to all concerned if a copy of The World Almanac were in every house- hold. For truth to tell, we probably answer nine-tenths of the requests we recelve for in- formation from the pages of this admirable work.—Springfield (Mass.)
