graph entitled Woman Suffrage in
California" in which it quotes a let
ter. as follows:
I'VE are using the word vote for
women on our literature. I wish we
had had them long ago. We owe you

Uncle George will celebrate his ninety

years more of life. and. feeling as we'll
as do, I should make it easily"
Feeling as well as 1 do. There was

four drinks a day. but do not carry
the thing too far.
Now as to my menu. I have not
eaten any meat for the last 10 years.
Then you are Segetarian?"
Not altogether-no complete
vegetarian. For instance I haven't
eaten any potatoes for the last seven
years Now here is what I do eat at
each meal. and it never varies from
one month to the other:
'Breakfast-six stewed prunes; mush
and milk; coffee and toast; bananas or
oranges.
Luncheon Eggnog and ginger

John D. Rockefeller is in perfect

Now, what does that signify?
DR.. C. George H. Richardson of this

golf enthusiast and perhaps in this
case not to be trusted DR. Henry Glib

DR.. Kibbe points to the fact that most
golden weddings as her observa ton

mention the fact that perhaps fewer
divorces in the country than in the city
account for the frequent so year mar

that DR.. Kibbe owns country real es-
