A Warning TO Fat Lovers

America had filed out his once sketchy
frame and said, in effect: TOO fat. I
cannot marry him. Send me back to

Of course, there is fat and fat. Just

There is in some Of these replies a
one of the plea of the chorus singer
against the conductors reproof for
dragging the tina that he was 'only
one beat behind" The apelogists seem
to think the frauds ought to be for
given because men have been guilty

that the apology is itself an argument
against the whole movement, if it is of
any force at all. She urges that ''these
women when left alone prefer not to
vote" but that machine politicians of
both parties have driven or caioled
them into doing so. This recalls a
point which is related to the reasons
why many men oppose the whole wom-
ans suffrage movement. That point
is not the voting of 'these women so
much as the results of the system to
other women.
1t is a matter of open assertion in
Colorado that women who would be by
this apologist "classed as respectable"
are converted into machine poll
ticians" and have many times gone to
the places where 'these women live,
and with their own carriages accom-

turned them to their dwelling places.
