He Doesn't Know
Tt All.

The merchant tailor does not
Obtrude his individual taste
upon a Customer--he does not
assume that he is SO all

as to limit the expression of
personality by his patrons.
He has no preConceived ideas--
no ready-grou axes = his
function is that of an interpret

He regards every order as an
individual problem to be solved
by ITSELF he studies every man

his figure. his age and his tenn
permanent. He knows that no
two men are built alike--that
no two men of approximately
the same appearance have the
same personalities. He knows
that he must vary every suit
to please the man who is to
wearit, and he varies it enough
to make it little different from
every other suit. He does not

TWO GREAT FEAsIs
Sunday and Monday Are Two
important Days for
The Church.
PURPOSE OF FESTIVALS

There are two great feasts in the
month of October. that of the body OF
the holy rosary, OIL Sunday, October
8, and that of st. F.. dncis Of Assist, on
Monday, October 4. The rosary, as is
we'll known in the Roman Catholic
church, is series of prayers consist
ing of fifteen paternosters and $50
ave marias. which, for the conven-
fence Of worshipers, are counted on a
string Of beads. Each rosary, or
string of beads, consists of fifteen de-
cades, each of which contains one pat
ernoster (our father marked by a
large bead and ten ave marias (hail
Nary marked by ten smaller beads.
Purpose Of Festival.
The festival of the rosary was in
stituted to implore the divine mercy
faithful, and return thanks for the
benefits conferred on them, more es-
pecially for the victory Of Lepanto ov-
er the Turks in 1871. This success
believed to have been obtained
through the intercession of the Virgin,
who is SO specially invoked in the de-
votion Of the rosary, was ordered by
Plus V to be annually concentrated
under the title st. Mary de Victoria.
The epithet was changed. however,
by his successor, Gregory XIII. into
the title of the festival of the rosary.
The victory of Prince Eugene over the
Turks at Belgrade, in 1916, was order
ed by Clement XII to be included in
the benefits which this office special
ly commentaries.
Pope Leo XIII ordered that the ros-
airy be recited each day during the
month. The feast of the guardian
angels is celebrated on the I'd of Oc-
tober; thus two devotions are practic-
ed during this mocth. Both in the
Old and New Testaments the Holy
Scriptures teach that the holy angels
protect us. The church encourages
devotion to the angels, for in the bre-
wary she has authorized. votive Of
flee in honor of these heavenly spirits,
on every Monday when there is no
special festival to be celebrated.

Dorothy Dix. who is really intelligent
enough to know better. who says:
III women had votes there is not a

sooner right themselves by political.
social and economic cataclysm that will
drive the brazen females back to their
proper places-the kitchen and the

Let us hasten to assure this modern
Jeremiah that his gloomy prophecies
are without foundation. The time will
come when women will vote. and yet
not self respecting man will stay
away from the polls because he Is liza
bic to meet there his mother. his SIS
tiers, his female cousins and his aunts
THE proof Of the pudding is in the
eating" says the Old adage. and we
base our belief on this happy outcome
of woman's suffrage on the fact that
in the countries where women do vote
they have not kept a single man, self
respecting or otherwise. from exercis-
ing his privilege as a free man to ex-
press his opinion by means Of ballot.
In the four western states where wom-
en- vote and where men are quick on
the trigger it certainly wouldn't be
safe to tell any gentleman that he was
a poor, emasculated squaw man be-
cause he went to the polls at which
women also voted. In New Zealand,
Australia. the Isle Of Man. Finland and
Norway women have full suffrage. and
II the self respecting men of these
countries are conspicuous by reason Of
their absence from the polls no rumor
Of it has reached the outer world.
Indeed. the best argument that can
be advanced for giving women the
right to vote is that wherever female
suffrage has been tried it has worked
out successfully. and there has never
been u suggestion OF depriving women
Of their rights and going back to the
old order of male oligarchy.
