Because he had loved her a long
time, he hesitated about telling her.
With the direct diyinati0n Of w0m-
ans intuition, she Surmised the truth
She was not a selfish, narrow-mnded
creature. and though the foreshadow-
ing sorrow hurt her cruelty, yet she
desired earnestly to help the man. He
had been trailing all about the sub
iect for several moments, waiting the
necessary courage. She took the mat
Ter in hand quite calmly.
why don't you tell me, Day." she
asked quietly. He started and looked
at her uncomfortably. She smiled.
It was not a happy smile, and the man
froyned inyOluntarily, reaching his
hand toward her. He had not yet lost
the direct sympathy that had been
one of the strongest bonds Of their
union.

was low and even. There was not the
slightest suggestion of a scene in the
atmosphere. He pulled himself to-
gether with jerk.
Meg" he said softly. you're a
wonder. How did you know"
How should l help knowing" she
asked, Il am not blind"
But i thought have been just
the same" he insisted.
Your heart was not in it, that was

She is not like you," he said hest.

She is little and pretty and needs
someone to care for her" Margaret
started. Had it gone so far already?
In her minds eye she pictured in
stantly TIE sort of girl he was trying

Il was not attracted toward her at
all at first" he explained, but she
seemed so helpless and | got in the

You need tell me nothing unless
you like boy" She used the little
name uneonsciously. You know you
are not bound to me in the slightest
way" Across the mans face sprang
look of relief. to give way to one of
admiration. There isn't another
woman like you in the world, Meg!"
he declared tenderIy. Il am not half
good enough for you" She smiled at
The old reasOn-the reason that al

of a woman and wishes to be gentle
about the matter.

Susan B. Anthony and Her
Work for Equal Suffrage

furnished entertaining stories for if
ty years,
Mrs. Cakes Smith, fashionable
Boston woman of the day, was named
for president. Mrs. Smith appeared
at the convention in a lOw-necked,
short.sleeved white dress with fancy
saCQue of pink delaine.
Quaker James Mott nominated her
for the office, and this was more than
Quaker Susan B. Anthony could stand.
She rose in her place and said bold
ly that no woman dressed in the friv-
Olous fashion of Mrs. Smith could
represent the earnest, Woodworking
women of the country, who, Miss An
thony believed, were asking the bal
lot. She carried the day, and Mrs.
Lucretia Mott was elected president
of the association.
Not long after that Miss Anthony
attended second womans meeting,
at which the speakers had such weak,
piping voices that they did not reach
beyond few front. seats. Miss An
thOny got up and said: Mrs. Presi-
dent, move that hereafter the pa
pers shall be given TO someone to read
who can be heard"
SqueIches Horace Greeley.
From the beginning Of her work
Miss Anthony had the friendship and
support of Horace Greeley. He en-
jOyed, however, an occasional cOntrO-
versial tilt with her, and in one nota-
BILE instance she had much the best
of it. Miss Anthony" said Greeley,
in his drawing monotone, you know
the ballot and the bullet go together.
If you vote, are you ready to fight?"
Yes, Mr. Greeley" Miss Anthony
retorted instantly. Just as you
fought in the late war at the point of
a goose quill"
At the Empress Reception.
When Miss Anthony was in Berlin
several years ago she attended a re-
ception given by the empress of Ger
many. Miss Anthony insisted on
standing. The empress was stand
ing. Why shouldn't she stand? Every
body else sat down, but she stood up
under her 81 years and said she in
tended standing until the empress
took her seat. A moment later a court
functionary, splashed from head to
foot with brass and gold braid, came
up to the suffragist and said;
Her majesty requests that you will
be seated"
Miss Anthony sat down, but pres
emily bobbed up again, and explained
to the others present that maybe 1t
wasn't respectful to sit in the pres.
ence Of royalty.
But no sooner had the kind old
Aunt Susan" arisen than the major
domo," as she called him, came bow
ing back, and in the choicest German,
said:
Her majesty says she will be much
distressed II you do not SIT.
Miss Anthony sat down and re-
NAMED sitting until the empress
came up to her, and bidding her good
by, wished her pleasant stay in Ber-
lin. After Miss Anthony had
escaped" from the place and had re-
turned to her friends at the hotel,
they, having never seen an empress
outside a picture book, began asking
what she looked like. One said, Did
you kiss her hand?"
Kiss her hand?" asked Miss An
thony. "No. Should have done it?
just bowed my head and told her |
was a Quaker, and didn't know much
about court etiquette, and she gently
told me to follow my own customs.

Susan b. Anthony was one OF
Americas famous women. She was
known in every state in the Union, and
her fame reached to all the great
capitals of Europe rs the most able
leader in the woman suffrage move
ment in the world. She was known
for her earnestness, her SinglenesS OF
purpose, her courage, and her cheer
fulneSS under defeat. She gave Wom-
an a place in the United States that
woman did not occupy in 1853, when
she scandalized a whole community
by daring to speak in public of the
wrongs of her sex.
To-day American women are envied
by those of all other nations, and
stand comparatively free individuals,
with the exception Of political diSa-
bilities. During the fifty years which
have wrought this revolution, just one
woman in all the world (Susan B.
Anthony gave every day of her time.
every dollar of her money, every pow
err of her being to secure this result.
She was impelled to this work by no
personal grievance, but solely through
a deep sense of the injustice which,
on every side, she saw perpetuated
against her sex. and which she de-
termined to combat. Never for one
short hour was the cause Of woman
forgotten or put aside for any other
object. Never single tie was form
ed, either Of affection or business,
which would interfere with this SUI
preme purpose. Never a speech was
given, a trip taken, a visit made,
letter written in all this half cen
fury but that was done directly in
the interest of this one object. There
was no thought of personal comfort,
advancement, or glory; the self
abnegation, the self-sacrifce, was alb.
solute and unparalleled.
Many Chances to Wed.
Next to woman's suffrage, If there
was one live question In the world
upon which Miss Anthony had decid-
ed opinions 1t was upon matrimony.
She had so many chances to wed that
she didn't remember all who asked
her.
Miss Anthony had one beau who
wore a green waistcoat, but that Is
about all she does remember of him.
Once, in telling of other chances to
marry, she said:
ooh, they'd come shining around.
1t was the thing to 60 to meeting with
them, and to all the socials and SPELL
ing bees, and sleigh riding and buggy
riding, and the girls counted how
many horses and buggies were hitched
In front of another girls house at one
time. What do you call them now?
Oh, yes-scalps. in those days men
in general were afraid of woman
who wrote book, and one who
taught school was only a little better
off. If woman got the reputation of
having brains 1t was bad for her mat
rimonial chances. The men were
afraid Of petticoat government, and
it took a good many smiles and bright
colors and curls to overcome this.
Still, had my share. I'll tell you,
I've always been busy, and men were
always secondary.
"They are all dead now, so none of
them can feel hurt. | wOuld have
been widow, no matter which had
married"

Miss Anthony attended her first
woman's rights convention in SYRIA
cuse, N. Y, in 1852. At that meeting
she displayed the tendency to speak
out her exact thoughts, which have

Minnesota Dairy and Food Com.
mission. .a5. I,
considerable work has been done
lately in the chemical laboratory in
analysing spices and extracts. The
majority OF the new goods being
offered on the market arc either
pure or are labelled in such q
manner as to inform the purchaser
what he is buying. We find upon
.investigation that the majority of
illegal goods are old goods which
were legal when SOLD to the retail
trade. Where the retailers have
such goods in stock the department
is inclined to be more lenient than
where new goods are placed in stock
and which do not comply with the
law.
AS an indication of the brazen
attempts of some manufacturers to
|evade the pure food laws attention
is called to sample No. 637 given be-
low. The manufacturers of this
pepper. Reid, Henderson and Co.,
Chicago, are not only adulterating
their own product, out the depart
meut is in possession of evidence to
the effect that this same firm offered
toSa prominent jobbing house in this
state low quotations on their
"peppo," or pepper adulterant,
claiming that no chemist could
detect the presence OF, the adulter-
alton. The chemist has no trouble
in detecting the adulteration and
our inspectors are striving to cause
these people, and any jobbers who
may have been inveigled into push
ing their ''peppo," all the trouble
possible.
