Israel Zangwlll, the British novelist

Israel Zangwill, the British novelist,
has added novel problem to the wom-
an suffrage question. Mrs. Humphrey
Ward opposes votes for women. Mr..
Zangwill finds that the reason for this
is that as novelist she has discovered
and analyzed the weakness Of her sex,
and he replies that as male novelist
he has learned the "boundless vanity,
selishness, and hysterical emotional
ISM of men. He concludes that his sex
is utterly untitled to be trusted with
power. A question is raised here which
readers Of novels may answer for them
selves. DO male writers idealize wom-
Ell, and do women fictionists idealize
men? Did not Thackeray expound the
vanity of woman as well as worship his
saints in muslin? And did not George
Eliot make Maggie Tulliver more of a
hero than Tom?

PLENTY OF WORK ON THE FARMS.
BY Secretary James Wilson.

The productlveness of the United
States along agricultural lines is not
keeping pace with the growth of eur
population. Meats are, dear because
the slaughterins animals are falling
behind the population in relative
numbers. Labor Is scarce on the
farm, and labor is dear on the farm
because the factory, the forest, the

away the farmers workers through
