Father Phelan Suggests Novel and Orig.
 inaI Suffrage Law in Missouri
TO ENCOURAGE LARGE FAMILIES

q 5A
 St. Louis, Mo, Aug. 3O-"Family suf- frage; or, no babies no ballots" This is the propaganda of the Rev. D. S. Phelan, editor and priest of St. Louis, whose epigrammatic observations and caustic and virulent analysis of ques- tions Of public moment in The Vest ern Watchman have made him a na- hona1 figure The clergyman -advo- cates one of the most novel and orig 1nals bills ever submitted to a Legis- iature relative to women and their rights. stl
 This measure, which the priest says he will submit to the next session at Jefferson City, asks for family snf- encouraging large families. Father Phelan will also submit suggestions relative to women correspondent pro- hibitfng a divorced husband from
 marrying the correspondent in the case.
 Sho0d his measure gain the approval of the lawmakers of Missouri, the standards of woman's importance will be materially changed.
 ''In some States. Father Phelan as- serts. "women's suffrage is based on the question of whether they are prop erty owners. A man or woman of property is supposed to have more fn- terest in the welfare of the State than one who has no such stake. But the offers a greater pledge than the rich est land owner. Political economists could tell us the value in dollars and cents to the Commonwealth of a new born babe. On this principle we would have three kinds of suffrage mankind suffrage, family suffrage, and property suffrage would give every family an aditiona1 vote for every child born into it. If a couple has ten children we would give the family twelve votes. In case the couple agreed politically, we would permit the father to cast the whole twelve votes. If the couple were divided on their views of politics, we would give of all her daughters, and the husband his own vote and those of his sons. This would give the women suffragists all they now demand and more, but it would disfranchise the childless- It would encourage large families"

Tinted Lungs.

One of the exhibits in an English anatomical museum is collection of three lungs preserved in alcohol. On one hand Is an exhibit almost pure white, while the third is jet black, the one between being a dirty gray.
 The first was taken from an Eskimo who all his life had inhaled the pure air of his northern home. The black was taken from a miner who had spent years in the production of coal. The third was from the body of a London man, and the tint was produced by the inhalation of the soot carried in the air.
 It is certain fact that the lungs of the miner were in a more healthy state than those of the city dweller, since the grit in his tissues was pure coal dust, while the discoloration Of the other was due not alone to soot, but to the dust of a city's streets composed of Q thousand and one deleterious elements.
