Not being a professional pacificist my solf I rather enjoyed Mr. Dell's prophe- cles, but I wondered how he had come to depart so far from the generally ac- cept belief that women in the mass make up the conservative section of the human race, So T asked him why he expected them to inject so much violence into the political world, “Mo man, not even o politician, can explain things to a woman,” he summed up suocinctly. “Por years men have been promising to do cer- tain things if they were elected to offce, Other men have been sending these eager promisers to the Wash- imgton Club or the London Club, Waving accomplished scarcely any- thing, the promisers have given a @Uid list uf reasons for their failure to their men constituents and have ‘deen returned to office. ow women oe he Famous Chocolate Laxative -EX-LAX Relieves Constipation Helps Digestion Blood Pure Ex-Lax is a delicious choco- late laxative recommended by Physicians tite remedy for constipation in all its forms.

You must make a fuss. You must be disagreeable, You must stamp aud claw and bash in the faces of your opponents.

But when he tried to induce t accept his opinion on the settlement matter he was almost mobbed on his own platform.
