This de- spite the fact that when all the bills, including advertising, are paid, tho Constitutional Convention will have Cost the State pretty close to a million dollars, However, that will be offset, in the event the Constitution Is beaten, by the saving to the City of New York of $1,000,000 which the new Constitu- tion would saddle on us In the shape of additional expenses for courts. “Entirely aside from the merits or demerits of the proposed Constitution it is threatened with defeat because it was framed by lawyers and for lawyers. Let us hope that the defeat of this Constitution—if it is defeated will serve to put a large ragged dent in the long standing, generally cepted proposition that we must ploy lawyers to make our laws, “More than three-fourths of the delegates to the Constitutional Con- | venuon were lawyers and a heavy percentage of them were corporation lawye!

Such get-rich-quick methods have rarely brought anybody anything but heartache and remorse and regret. They have stifled ambition, killed en- ergy and blasted hopes. Better keep on saving, and If you want to invest your money put it into something tangible, something REAL, something that has a value, something that you can TURN BACK INTO MONEY with little or no trouble, You never can tell when you may need it. Contrary to the hew era idea that the "female of the species” is as self-reliant as man, there comes a time when woman by the very nature of her make-up gets weak and worn out; and then the savings come in good stead, As yet, It Is easy to fool the female sex into the belief that a bonanza ma: be had by “risking @ little money, ‘The percentage of real return Is small, while the examples of loss are so large, that one wonders at the everyday victims who refuse to heed, Better take the slow, steady cash and keep it where it fe and sound, Save the sorrow that always comes when you try to beat a game that has never beon beaten in the long run, Look and listen and profit by the precepts of these women who are now weeping that their money has gone like the snows of last winter. i McCardell — Copyright, 1018, by the Press Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World) “Why, yes, I do,” Mr. Jarr declared. “You look fine; and I'm greatly pleased and interested.” “Then you conceal both your inter- est and pleasure very successfully!” cried Mrs. Jarr. “But I think {t looks fine,” Mr. Jarr declared. “Really, I think you look beautiful in it.” At this Mrs. Jarr became mollified and stalked past Mr. Jarr to give hin: the benefit of views fore and aft. “It's great!" cried the villain hypo- crite, feigning vast admiration to keep peace in the family, “Turn around! Ic looks nice in the back, too,” he added, as though this were an tmpor- tant discovery. “Of course It does. Thére is where & dress gets its character,” declared Mrs, Jarr, forgetting she had made accusations of his husbandly indiffer- ence, ‘The wretched dissembler drew in a deep breath, as though the subject was beyond words, “Yes,” Mrs. Jarr went on, “if you will notice when a woman is wear- ing a striking dress, no other women she meets will let on they care what she is wearing, They pass her al- most without looking at her, they turn around and take in the back of the dress and see how it ts made and how the skirt hangs and how it fits, Most any dress will look well from the front, but when you see it from the back you can tell whether it {s well made or no! “gure!

By Frances Perkins. HE one hundred and forty-five girls who were burned to death in the T Triangle Waist Company's fire in the spring of 1911 are a striking example of what women suffer from bad government, Tnadequate laws governing fire protection—and such as there were poorly enforced by @ varioty of departments, State and city, who divided the responalbility— were the direct cause of the destruction of these young girls, Every woman who goes to work tn factory, shop, store or office runs the risk of suffering {n her own body if the 1 industry are inadequate for her protection, or if the government which |enforces them is dishonest or tnefficient. To lose your arm in a laundry | mangle or your scalp in a loom because laws providing for machine guards are not enforced by a government in which you have no share is likely to good government—namely, Women get diseases if health laws or officials are lax; women suffer when the tenements of a town are left uninspected; women suffer when | the water supply is polluted, when the transportation breaks down or when | incompetent policing allows a wave of vice and crime to sweep over a ity. Since women suffer equally with men under bad government, there would seem to be every reason In the world for allowing them and even inducing the backward among them to share In the efforts to secure good government which they, in common with men, will apprectate, “Suffrage ts but a part of the greater Frankly stated, it has been the custom in Suffrage campaigns to pretend that woman demands merely the vote, frightening the men, and {t may well be that a number of Suffragists hon- thoy ave asking fur no more. cat out of the bag.’ They will not rest, however, until all offices up to the throne and the Presidential chair are opon to them.

It is born of the Instinct of every natural wom- an's soul that God designed her as the equal, the co-worker, the comrade of the man of her family, and not as his slave, dependent, servant or pla: In the samo article she says woman movement in the world.” ‘Suffrage and address among the ladies, And, the sarcasm.
