up a meeting of their own and very soon
thereafter organized a Woman s State
Temperance Society. A year later the
scene was re-onacted at Syracuse when
the Woman's Temperance Society sent
fraternal delegates TO the annual con-
vention of the Men s Temperance Society.
The women were ridiculed and reviled,
and the discussion on the question of
their admission almost broke up the con-
vention Again the women withdrew and
held a successful meeting of their own.
These experiences seem TO have given
Miss Anthony the first "arrest OF thought
on the subject Of equal rights. She found
that the temperance societies shol0rganized
nneuished. because the women did not
have money TO pay dues or engage
lecturers. She promptly started "a pc
ttion for the right of married women to
control their own earnings and TO have
equal guardianship Of their children; also,
a petition for suffrage Ten thousand
signatures were secured, which Miss An
thonv presented to the State Legislature.
The speeches of the honorable gentlemen
who received the petitions make enter
tanning reading in the year of our lord
1906 Today married women control
their earnings in nearly all the States and
arc Joint guardians OF their children in
l3 States.
Miss Anthony's lahors since 1855 in
behalf of her sister women are familiar
history. She was accorded the most
vigorous abuse and the greatest honors.
Held up to public scorn 10y the press and
the pulpit of 90 years ago, she lived 70

Empress Of Germany, and TO accept birth

Of the United States.
A warm friendship existed between Miss
Willard and Miss Anthony, and we find
among Miss Willard 8 mementoes pho

Wizards g handwriting the following in-
scription: "Susan B. Anthony, chief Of the

the girde and IN the middle Of the back.
Small gold buttons were also used as
trimming, there being three little buttons
on each side Of the front, as shown in the
sketch, the buttons also being used TO
outline the points Of the soutache orna-
ments referred TO. The collar Of the coat
had fat rever Of white corded silk EN-
broidered and appliqued about the edge
with q small passementerie in oriental
colorlngs. The edge OF this collar had
plated fr.ll Of cream color Valenciennes
lace, this same plated lace showing about
the edge OF the short sleeves.
The upper part Of the coat was cut
with a yoke section rounded 10 the same
outline as the edge OF the rever. This
yoke piece was cut In two little tab
pieces on each side Of the front, and
piece OF the broad silk braid was stitched
down under Il. The sleeves were also
trimmed with rows Of the braid slipped
under tabs IN like manner, as a study OF
the sketch viii explain.
The material was laid IN two plaits on
each side OF the front and stitched down
about four inches OF 90. to form fulness
over the bust. The edge Of the plait was
closely stitched all the way down.
The skirt was made In walking length,
and had four box-plaited panels. There
were eight cores four Of them plain, the
alternate ones forming double-hox plaits.
