Third That accidents do occur as the result of
vaccination is admitted By ALL and the best that the
friends Of vaccination reply s that accidents are
the result OF impure virus.
Fourth The various conflicting claims Of those
who manufacture virus are such that no doctor can
be quite sure that the virus he is using is free from
danger.
Fifth. There is no absolute agreement among the
doctors themselves as to exactly how vaccination
should be performed, or how often it should be re-
peated
Sixth. Even when successfully vaccnated the
patient is liable to acquire modified form Of small.
pOx, known as variOlOid. A case Of variOlOid is
just as dangerous in a community as a case Of real
smallpox.
Seventh. We believe that good ventilation, sun
light, absolute cleanliness, q fair degree Of health
and careful avoidance Of cOntagiOn, constitute the
only protection against smallpox there is.
Eighth We believe the reputation which vacci-
nation has acquired as preventive Of smallpox is
due entirely to the other sanitary precautions with
which vaccination has generally been associated.
Ninth. We believe it to be an invasion OF con-
stitutiOnal rights for children to be deprived Of
schooling unless they submit to vaccination. An
unVaccinated child does not endanger any one, and
unless such child has been exposed to smallpox it
Is needless precautiOn to prohibit him the benefit
of school.
Tenth. Should a vacciDated child and an unvac-
cinateG child both be ct the same time exposed 70
smallpox, in our judgment, both Of them should be
kept out Of school until q reasonable time has
passed. 1t would be as unreasonable to allow a
vaCcinated child who had been exposed to smallpox
to attend school, it is to deprive unVaccnated
child of school who has not been exposed to small
pOx.
Eleventh. We oppose vaccination, not only be-
it is harmful and useless but because it leads
people to suppose they safe from the cOntagiOn
Of smallpox and, therefore, more apt to neglect the
ordinary sanitary precautions which they would
otherwise observe.
Twelfth. We are opposed to vaccination because
some of the very best writer's and Investigators OF
this subject have been opposed to It, including such
men as Creighton CrOOkshank Wallace Collins,
BOens, Ross, Gregory, Wilkinson and others. Col
lns was for many years public vaccinatOr of Lon.
don, and the others whose names we have quoted
were equally qualified to speak upon this subject
Thirteenth. Lastly, we are opposed to vaccina-
tOn because we cannot possibly bring ourselves to
believe that the structure Of the universe is such
that deadly animal poison is necessary to preserve
health or to prevent disease.

phts Morning News will find considerable endorse.
ment among many men. We see and hear a great
deal about the club women; some praise, some ridi-
cule, some indifference. Yet we do not believe that
by the average man the club woman is given her
due consideration and just and proper estimate.
AS to the women's clubs, while some of them are
designed simply for the harmless amusement Of
their MEMBERS to which there should be no Obiec-
ton, the great body OF WOmen's clubs are based
upon the very highest aspirations, and in most
every field Of moral and intellectual endeavor wom
ems clubs are doing great work for the uplifting
Of humanity. Why then should membership in
organizations devoted to innocent amusements or
noble enterprises be so deleteriOus to the moral
character, graciOusness and usefulness of womeni
In the first place, womans duty lies in those
channels where her destiny has placed her. II her
lot is cast in business, the professions the
secluded, but not less responsible environment Of
home life, it's plain that she should meet the re-
quirements with efficiency and cheerful content
ment. II is not clear that the woman's club teach
es any doctrine or encourages any habit that ehaus
es its members to neglect their obligations in other
spheres. Why should not women form Organiza-
tons where they may enjoy an interchange of IDEAS
be a source OF encouragement and support for each
other and where they may band together in the pro-
motion Of some worthy cauaei
II a woman should be so situated that her main
duty is to her home and family, she will make Sc
rious mistake Il she makes a recluse of herself II
she does this, she win get out OF touch with the
world, become discOntented and lose that interest
in current affairs which is necessary to make her in
fuence effective over those who naturally should be
dependent upon her for sympathy and guidance.
A woman should never cOnine herself too closely
at home. There is much she can learn by social in
tercourse that she can turn to profit in her home
life; aud 1t is the active, CHEEKY wide-aWake WON
an who "keeps up' VINO generally presides over a
well kept and cheerful household.
The clubs should not be charged with RESPONSE
bility for women who neglect their home duties.
The woman who allows the clubs to take her away
from the duties which have first demand upon her
would probably neglect her responsibilities for en-
teTprises less profitable if there were no clubs,
while on the other hand, examples are numerous of
who active in club life aud yet have pre-
served their wOmanly qualities and who are faithful
to every demand made upon them by the happy
homes over which they preside with grace and dig
nifty.
The happy medium is the idea. The useful,
wholesome woman is neither a stay at-home nor a
gad-abOut.

ton in Europe, while England gave but slight in
dication Of assuming the ascendency over all her
rivals, which she has since acquired. In relative
strength, the United States was no greater than
Mexico is today. With exception OF comparatively
small places on the coast Northern ASIA the north
and western parts Of our continent, South America
Australia and Africa, barring Egypt, were all IN
explored Wildernesses.
The conclusion voluntarily arises from reading
the annals Of that time and Of the years which fol-
lands as could be obtained not the object Of the
majority Of the wars Of the European nations they
at least bore such an appearance, and in many in
stances had that result. The possession and con-
troll Of dependent territories and people were the de-
sire Of all, and the nation which could boast Of
most evidences Of such authority was considered
the greatest, happiest and most promising. It was
not until the effect OF our revolution was thoroughly
studied and appreciated that these ambitious na-
ons came to realization Of the fact that colonies,

A good roads bulletin asserts that every year mil
lions OF the peoples hard. d.earned money are wasted
virtually thrown away in fruiess attempts to patch
up bad roads, to fill mud holes and to improve
roads with unnecessary steep grades, all because
there is no one in charge with the knowledge, udg-
ment and authority to do the work as ought to be
done. Constant setting of these facts before the
public at last has aroused an interest in road max
ing, which promises to bring about improvements.
The New York Legislature has voted to let the peo
pie pass on a proposition to spend s., ,OO0 900 an
nually for twenty years on state wagon roads.
There is an undeniable advantage says the Mime
apolis Journal In state aid for wagon roads over and
above the appropriation Of 8 certain amount of
money. The acceptance Of state aid by local COM
munity not only brings to that community a sum OF
state money to be added to the local appropriation,
bat It brings knowledge and skill in Oad-building
that local governments rarely avail themselves Of.
State aid insures intelligent supervision il LAYING
out the roads, in the selection Of materials and in
methods Of construction.
