SEASONING Lumber.

A workman was packing salt about
q pile of timber. Seasoning timber
with salt, Ell? It sounds like a joke,
doesn't IT." he said. 1T is often done,
though, especially in ship timber.
Ships built of salt-seasoned timber get
a better insurance rate. Some very
rich woods are seasoned in boiling oil.
That's an ancient and costly process.
A new dodge is electrical seasoning
With strong electric shocks the sap
is driven out of the wood and replaced
by solution of borax and resin. The
scheme is cheap; not half as good as
salt"

Mrs. o. H. P. Belmont. whose enlistment in the
ranks of the suffragettes was heralded here two
weeks ago by the Rev. Anna Shaw, and again on
Monday by Mrs Carrie Chapman Catt arrived
here yesterday the Cunard liner Mauretania and
confirmed the reports Of her advance guard. Mrs.
Belmont said she was not merely a passive mem
Der of the army that was fighting for votes for
women but would contribute financial support when
it was needed. She called on Mrs Ida Hustled
Harper, fellow passenger and sunragette, to
witness that she contemplated giving her time and
efforts to the cause of w6man's suffrage.
On the passage across the Atlantic Mrs. Bel
mont's enthusiasm and Intentions became known,
and arrangements made to have a debate
between the two advocates of the cause and those
opposed to it. but according to Mrs Belmont and
Mrs. Harper, the opposition would not take the
floor fearing defeat Mrs Belmont said she would
give every hour she could spare and every dollar
she could afford to the work here In America, and
spoke with great pride of the suffragette leaders
or England With an occasional word sugges-
ton from Mrs, Harper. Mrs. Belmont said:

L left here as now OF course. l inter
on me until 1 met those brave women of London
who fought through all of opposition. 1t
was then that felt the thrill of real enthusiasm.
Those women have been fighting for forty years,
three years. and this believe, is due to the sup
port or my own countrywonen, OF whom 1 am
exceedingly proud. With such women Mrs.
Mackay and Mrs. Robert Goeet in the front ranks
of our party cannot be kept down"
Mrs. Belmont said that her daughter, the Duchess
Of Marlborough was heartily in sympathy with the
sufragettes but had taken any active part IN
the recent congress in London.
When the name of Mrs Clarence Mackay was
suggested TO Mrs. Belmont. Mrs. Harper answered
for her, saying that Mrs Bemont's interest on
much broader scale than that o. Mrs. Mackay.
Mrs. Mackay." said Mrs. Harper rs interested in
the work locally; Mrs. BeImOnt's work is broader
and deals with the national movement
When the subject of breaking windows in Mr..
Asquith's place by a suffragette brought up
as a case of violence, Mrs. Harper said to Mrs.
Belmont; You don't want to be quoted saying
mat she should have broken his head, do your
Mrs Belmont said she did not and then Mrs.
Harper said that the movement had been exception
ally successful where women had gone into districts
and become candidates for office And the same
can be done here broke in Mrs Belmont She
