A SILLY MISTAKE.
The suffragettes '•ladies" responsible
for the recent unseemly disturbances
in front of the White House might
l well take a lesson from the “votes for
- women" campaign in England. It will
1 be rememberede that when the same
I hnlligan tactics were employed by the
I suffragettes women of the Tankhurst
I'.vpe; when they smashed store fronts)
and constantly bombarded parliament
with suffrage demands couched in
terms that even their staunchest sup
potters depreciate, they made n,ot one
'ita of progress, but, instead, excited
mity among many who would other
e been inolined to accept 'their
• »ands in a lenient spirit even
ipposed to the general principle
nvolved. But when they quietly took
the places of their husbands and broth*
I ers In the mills and workshops and
_thus assisted to fight England’s battles
>y performing Important services for
fthe country, sentiment changed at once
with the result that only a few days
ago the right of suffrage was granted
them by the house of commons. And
this without scarcely an effort on their
part.
The action of the Washington women
was a decidedly silly mistake that will
have no other effect than was pro
luced In England by the same type
if hooliganism—the vote will be made
Harder to obtain and the entire cause
"ill suffer.
Invading the home of the president,
picketing the White House gates, and
Utractlng public attention to them
selves by means which place them
inder the designation of ‘‘pestiferous
nuisances,” will never gain them the
sympathy of the national rep re sen tn -
Ives in Washington ir the majority of
Ihelr male constituents at home.
By staiting a campaign of such
Jharacter at a time when the nation
h facing the gravost situation in its
.'areer and when the president Is beset
vith problems of Inestimable import
nee to the national safety and fu
ure, the women can hope for nothing
>ut wide condemnation.
No one with proper reason will
leny that the women of the land are
ully entitled to the vote, but they
annot hope to obtain It by demon
trations of a character calculated to
rouse resentment even in the minds
f those who grant the justice of their
ornands.
The only way the women of those
tates which have not yet granted
qual rights can hope to win is by
arsulng the course of their sisters
a the other commonwealths which
lave Joined the suffrage ranks,
persistence in such methods will be
I
yond ft doubt bring them the vote In
every section of the union except, per
haps, in the south where suffrage
is complicated by the negro question,
| in a very short time. And even in the
south the firm insistence that has
characterized the suffrage campaigns
in California and other states will
ultimately place them in possession
of the much coveted right to cast
their ballots beside their fathers,
brothers and husbands.
But, in the meantime, they* must
abide their t'line for to force suffrage
jpon the southern states aga'inst the
will of their citizens would be obvious
ly an act that no reasoning could
,'Ondone. In fact it would be nothing
less than criminal for the national
congress to pass a suffrage law that
did not have tlie sanction of the people
of the south.
The firm insistence of President
Wilson that the question of suffrage
‘is one to be decided by the states
themselves is undoubtedly the only
logical one and has the full endorse
ment of all who have devoted their
attention to the suffrage question.
And the wild and wooly women of
Washington may' speedily make up
their minds that they will net succeed
in bulldozing the president into chang
ing his attitude by means of such
demonstrations as liav.e occurred in the
capital in the past few days.
ANECDOTES OF
THE FAMOUS
Jean Baptiste .Jules Bernadotte,
one of Napoleon’s marshals and king
of Sweden and Norway was born at
Pau, France, on January 26, 1764, and
died in Stockholm on March 8, 1844.
He was the son of a lawyer and was
educated for, that profession. In 1780
he enlisted in the royal marines, and
subsequently took part and achieved
' historic distinction in the French rev
olution. He worked his way up unt'il
he became one of Napoleon's mar
shals, anil lie endeil by being not
only the ruler but the popular sov
ereign of Sweden, whose language he
really never masteerd. With extreme
intelligence and in this imitating Na
poleon himself, lie surrounded him*
self with a kind of royal medieval at
mosphere.
He always remained a Frenchman
at heart; and though he soon ceased
to be on even friendly terms with
the man to whom he owed everything,
■the news of Napoleon's overthrow at
Wateroo filled him with grief He was
then still only prince of Sweden and
did not proclaim himself king until
February of 1818, when Bonis the
• XVIII. actually found liiinsef com
pelled to send an envoy to bear his
congratulations to a brother sovereign
who had begun life as one of the
humblest subjects of Bouis XVI.. He
lived long enough to see Napoleon's
remains taken to Pahs from St. Hel
ena. Commenting on this, he ex
claimed:
"To think that I was once a mar
shal of Franco and that now I am
Inly king of Sweden.”
Hr. T. J. Macnamara financial sec
retary to the British admiralty, spent
his early manhood as a teacher, and
as a result lie is possessed of a bud
get of humorous stories of the dif
ficulties met wMh when endeavoring
to devlop youthful minds.
One relates to a young and enthu
siast'ic teacher trying to convey his
idea of pity to his class.
Said tile teacher;
“Now, supposing a man was work
ing on a river and suddenly fell Into
tlie water. His wife, hearing Ids
screams and knowing full well his
peril rushed immediatey "to the bank.
Why did she rush to the bank?”
There was a dramatic pause. Then
a small voice piped out:
“Please, sir, to draw Ids Insurance
money!"
Addressing a woman's welfalr meet
ing recently, Mrs. Lloyd George point
ed a moral with a quaintly pathetic
little story.
it concerned a Yorkshire coder's
wife who each Saturday made a prac
tice of calling at the pit where her
husband worked with a View to getting
him safely home, and by persuasion
and tact, preventing him getting too
much of drink en route.
Tlie poor woman, however was fain
to confess that she seldom succeeded,
and asked why, she replied as follows:
"Aw yer see, lady, Ah might get
Bill all reight past t’ White Hoss, but,
don’t yer see lady, tlieer's t’ King's
Head, an ’t’ Brahm Coo an' t’ Blue
Pig—seven other White Hosses, so to
speyke—afore Bill gets claim that hnwf
mile to ahr haaso."
Although one of the most charming
and graefous of hostesses, Queen Mary
of England will not tolerate undue
familiarity and woe betide those who
offend in this respect. •
A story is related of the time when
her majesty, then the voting Duchess
of oYrk was entertaining a friend at
York house.
"Do you mind my calling you May ?”
asked tlie Duchess' guest with some
affection "I love your name so much.”
“Not at till," replied the duchess in a
perfecty level tone of voice and with
a faint stnile on her face; “that is, of
course if you don’t, mind my not
answering you.”
A BIT OF ADVICE
Fir»t—Don’t Delay. Second—Don't Ex
periment.
If you suffer from backache; head
aches or dizzy spells; if you rest poor
ly and are languid in the morning; if
the kidney secretions are irregular
and unnatural in appearance, do not
delay. In such cases the kidneys often
n • i. help.
lean's Kidney I'ills are especially
prewired for kidney trouble—they are
recommended by thousands. Can Al
aska us'dents desire more convincing
proof than the following statement:
<! H. Behnke, 323 Lincoln St., Port
land, Ore., says: “Kidney trouble
clung to me for six months. I had
sharp pains in my kidneys and I found
it hard to turn in bed. Too frequent
action of my kidneys caused me to
rise up often at night. Doan's Kidney
Pills cured me.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't sim
ply ask for a kidney remedy—get '
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
cured Mr. Behnke. Foster-Wilburn j
