DEAR Mrs. JoHNs:- During the
past few weeks 80 many household
duties have crowded upon me, that It
has been impossible for me ito WELD
the pen, but seeing an article In the
JOURNAL Of Oct. ], by "A Widow, "
4 has made me feel called upon 10
expostulaie with another sister.
Again feel compelled % say that !
do not think Il q Vomam's place to
write for public print, but IL seems !
am compelled % s'come forward" 10
maintain my sentiments. for none Of
the sisters on my side seem inclined. 10
do 80. Little did ! think when ! hand
ed in my first article that through is
agency would be the target for all
the Woman Sufragists. For my part,
I cannot see how a woman can attend
70 household cares and literary pur-
suits ct the same time. ia wife is in
moderate circumstances when she II
compelled 20 attend 90 her own duties:
I can say from experiences. that to do
these duties lCeii, there j. no time for
much else. Maybe there are linen
whose minds get higher than their
stomach. - but ID has been my experi-
encs. that 10 set man down 20 a meal
poorly cOOked-and worse served-the
most intellectual VIII expostulate-
some perhaps. more mildly than
Others.
IL may make a difference whether
q woman D. shielded by n father or
husband, but II obliged 10 be self-sup-
porting, how this agitation Of W.
man Suffrage IL going % help her. /
can't see. VIII voting nnd "dabbiing
In politics" help her? Do you not see
men who are called the leading pOliti-
clans, do very little else, because their
time and thoughts are 50 completely
engrOssed ? IL the men and women
OF household would all turn their
attention In that direction, | ana
afraid there would not be many hap
by homes. To be sure woman
without a natural protector ia
widow for instancel has TO earn her
own maintenance; but would going
10 the polls, nelp her anys think
not. am sure II / were called upon

about IL unless / should call upon my
husband for knowledge, and are not
many women in the same pTedica-
ment ? / am sure they have no time
% read and inform themselves 10 las l
said befcrel they attend 90 their
household duties. Anticipating the
remark Of who a widow" would call
upon, we would say she had better let
politics alone. WIFE"

let men cease TO say that" women do
not want TO vote, "and that they would
neither find time for, nor develop in

made again and again, notwithst and
ing that facts prove the contrary.
That school elections have not always
been attended by women since they
have had that privilege, proves moth
ing. Mostly, the schools are running
as well as could be asked: in such
cases when there's no issue, nothing
that could be bettered by their votes,
the women have stayed at home.
