About one of the sanest expressions

the female mind of this, and several
other countries, more or less-suffrage

an actress. She voluntarily classes
herself among the has-been of these

New York less than a year ago, Miss
Bingham was one of the most active
leaders and advocates of the woman's
rights movement. But her study of
English suffragettes and their meth

the ants.
Miss Bingham says:
Il am convinced that the death
knell Of the American home will be
sounded If women ever gain the bal

my stay abroad that American women

HoCH DENoUNCEs THE RECALL
Declares Initiative and Referendum Is
Harmless Tomfoolery.


Chicago, Oct. 1S.-Edward A. Hoch,
former governor of Kansas, yesterday
termed the initiative and referendum
"a harmless piece of tomfoolery.''
II don't like either the recall or the
initiative and referendum" said Mr..
Hoch in an interview at the yelling
ton Hotel. st believe the agitation is
misguided just as was agitation for
the minority representation provision
in the Illinois constitution and which,
notice Chicago reformers and Gov
ernor Deneen now are denouncing.
remember well when it was adopted,
and at that time it would have been
treason to question its wisdom.
1.-THE recall will make towards and
weathervanes of public officials. I'm
der that alleged reform Washington
would have been recalled by the Tor
les Lincoln would have been recalled
by the copperheads and Mckinley
would have been recalled by the jim
goes who were clamoring for a prema-
ture declaration of war.
"What this country needs is strong,
courageous public men who will tide
the country over spasm of unwise pub
lie sentiment. The people generally
are right in the end, but they are Of
ten temporarily wrong. They go off
on tangents on insufficient informa-
ton. They get back all right, but the
recall would play havoc in the mean
time.
''The initiative and referendum is a
harmless piece of tomfoolery that is
impracticable in big country like
this"
Discussing the insurgent victories at
the Kansas primaries Mr.. Hoch said
he believed the defeat of some of the
standpat congressman was not for the
best.
while I am in sympathy with the
spirit of the insurgent movement in
Kansas I don't think the sum total of
the result is going to be particularly
good in the defeating of men like Con-
gressmen Charles Scott and W. A. Cal
derhead," he said: 81 have known
Congressman Scott for quarter of a
century, and he is scholar, an honest
man and a credit to the state. 1 don't
think good government is going to be
advanced by defeating men like him.
The same is true of Ca1derhead, one of
the ablest men in Congress"

the forester will tell how to plant
them and care for them.
TOO many men get the tree plant
ing fever" said Mr.. Scott yesterday,
land then neglect the trees they have
planted. Two weeks after putting
out the trees that are to result from
these lectures, L shall make it my
business to inquire about them, insti-
tuting a follow up system by card or

will be delivered in from 10 to 20
towns, one or two towns being visited
every day. The western part of the
state will receive special attention
next month.

ment Which Has Cured So Many
Cases Thought to Be Chronic.

Nervous dyspepsia usually attacks those
who have inherited a nervous constitu-
ton. 1t may, however, follow indiscre-
tons OF living, or result from a condition
OF nervous debility following acute dis
eases, such as fevers or the grip.
Sufferers from this trouble present vary
ing symptoms. Some lose flesh until
they are extremely emaciated, complain
OF nervousness and headaches and great
distress at the stomach Others are
healthy looking in every way and recog-
n1ze the disease only by pains and I'M
easiness after eating.
In the case of Mrs. Caroline Rogers, of
No. 1854 Labadie avenue, St. Louis, Mo. =,
stomach trouble was due to the rundown
condition following fever. She says:
81 suffered with stomach trouble for
about four years following a severe at
tack of malaria. My stomach was left in

across my stomach. Was very nervous,

aches, which seemed to affect my eyes.
Il was under the care of doctor for

nervous dyspepsia but he did not help
me. My son finally advised me to try

start and used them until cured. have
since used the pills as atonic and always

The value of the tonic treatment with
DIR. Williams Pink Pills is shown by
the thousands of cures the pills have
made in the various forms of stomach
trouble, as acid stomach, nervous dys-
pepsia, neuralgia of the stomach, gastritis
and catarrh of the stomach.

PosIam, Which Soothes and Heals.
While the application of poslam, the
new skin remedy, after shaving is one
of its minor uses, such as for pimples,
the complexion, ETC., shavers have
found it a revelation, as it does for
abrasions, roughness and severe scrap
ings what it does in all manner of
skin difficulties-feals and cures in
few hours. Poslam's great antisep-
tic and curative value enables it to
tone up the skin as no toilet prepara-
ton possibly could. Any infection,
such as BARRIERS itch is quickly cured,
for poslam's primary work is the
rapid healing of such serious skin dis
eases as eczema, acne, letter, salt
rheum, etc. "Poslam is the best and
quickest cure that 1 have seen in my

business, says Frank ]. Kammerer,
