I think this convention is going to open
the eyes of the civilized world to a great
many things
The. nearness of the two conventions
gave one an excellent opportunity to COM
pare the workings of the State Fedora
ton of Women's Clubs with the Mime
sofa Woman Suffrage association and
with no intention to be Tnaliciously crit
zeal the comparison is easily in favor
of the former association. OF course,
the suffrage association was the smaller
convention of the two, but for all that
there was just as much business to come
before its two days of existence as there
was to come before the federation during
it's two days and a half of existence
Every session of the State Federation
was called to order promptly at the time
set for it. II motion had been passed
to limit discussion, that motion was rig
idly observed, no matter how absorbing
the discussion might be. AS conSe-
quence the sessions were not protracted
and they were eminently dignified. On
the other hand not single session of the
suffragist convention was called at the
time given on the programme. This was
not the presidents fault. The delegates
took their own time in getting to the
hall, and if Friday mornings session had
been called promptly at 10 o'clock the
president would have had the pleasure of
addressing empty benches. Members Of
the federated clubs are better parlia-
mentarians thar the suffragist women.
Many motions were brought before the
suffragist convention and seconded, and
then totally forgotten in desultory con-
versations that carried the members
thoughts in other directions The aim of
the federated clubs is a purely social and
literary one. The suffrage association is
working to obtain the right to help gov
ern city, state and country 1t is not
difficult to understand which association
should make the best showing from q
parliamentary standpoint.
Two of the most enthusiastic women
suffragists at the convention last week
We're its presiding officer, Mrs. Maud c.
Stockwell, of Minneapolis, and Dr. Ethel
l.. Hurd, the recording secretary, also
from Minneapolis. Mrs. Stockwell is the
wife of State Senator StockwelL She Is
comparatively young woman, but she
has taken up the suffrage work energet-
ically and it is not at all improbable that
some day she will hold an office in the
national association. Mrs. Stockwell will
attend the national convention to be
held next February in Washington. DR.
Hurd is practicing physician in Min
neapolis, but she finds time in spite of
the Bulletin, the oracle of the Mime

fcunce being trimmed with several rows
of chiffon ruching. The bodice of white
silk, appliqued with flowers, was draped
with deep fchu. The cape portion fell
almost to the waist in the back, the
knotted ends in front being much longer.
The hat worn with the frock was
dainty affair of white velvet trimmed with
the velvet flowers which are so much the
fashion this winter. A straight band of
black velvet about the throat was
adorned with a jeweled clasp, the only
ornament worn.
The pompadour vogue is low1y but sure
~ making way. A robe of ecru taffetas
trimmed with garlands and medailions of
flowers made for a fashionable dame is
an adaptation of the most finished taste
of that period. The entire lower part of
the skirt is covered with embroidered
sfrlands of roses worked in silk. The
blouse of eeru mousseline and point
d alencon lace has a novel treatment.
Over the mousseline a short bolero is ad-
justed, the ceinture being very high and
of satin. The Jacket is extended in the
back to form a tiny coat trimmed with
houtons. The sleeves finish a little be-
low the elbow with puffs of ecru muslin
applied under spreading elbow ruff1es

latest type of the new woman. She had

surprise many, for it is a fact that in
many cases countries which we are apt
TO consider barbarie have given their
women rights that America and England
have seen fit so far to withhold from our
sex. Most of this knowledge we expect
to get through the missionaries. England,
of course. will furnish the knowledge for

tries will do the same for their colonies.

be very popular for autumn wear, and
