WOMEN 7 FEET TALL

Editor Herald: Probably no letter
which has ever appeared in the Letter
Box has contained so many sublime
truths in so small a compass as the
letter of Fideles in today's issue of The
Herald. "Womanhood is shaping the
present and future destinies of ma
tions." This truth, perhaps, is more
fully set forth in that marvellous book,
"The Flying Roll'' (marvelous because
it Is the very essence of the scripture),
than in any other work, revealing the
cause of her past position, and showing
how and when she will come into her
rightful heritage, when overshadowed
by the immortal woman.
That we are at the dawn or great
changes, both physically and spiritual
ly, is the settled conviction OF many
today.
Not long since the writer read an
item in a magazine on the increasing
height of American women, the present
generation of young women being as
rule three or four inches taller than
their grandmothers. This Is fact,
readily seen by any obserVant person.
And it would be interesting to know II
this change is taking place IN other
nationalities as we'll as in America. 1t
is also interesting to contemplate the
ultimate OF SuCn CudhSO. ~ "A0S
height will the perfect man and woman
become in the coming age? John Wroe,
an Englishman to whom while In an
entranced condition was revealed the
truths contained in 1.-THE Flying Roll,
declared that in the coming age the
men would be eight feet tall ana the
women seven feet. as in the days OF
mans youth, before the effects of sin
dwarfed the race.
The increasing height of our young
girls in this generation is determined
by one who worketh after the counsel
of his own will, and millions Of them
are destined and predestined to be the
mothers of the first generation OF them
who will enter into that age Which
rightly is termed the golden.

THE SMOKING SUBJECT

Editor Herald: The article in Satur-
days October y Herald, on woman
Defends Smokers" l imagine was writ
ten by a woman who has a comfortaple'
airy home or apartments, husband 10
support her. and who has at least d
few hours each day when she need not
inhale tobacco smoke. But on the
other hand, Mrs. Common sense
should consider the women VINO are
compelled to support mother and per
haps children, and who because OF CIR
cumstances are forced to live in small
poorly ventilated quarters, and perhaps
work in some office where they must
sit in a cloud of smoke ali day long,
and dare not object, because 1t means
their bread and butter, and about the
only time they have to breathe the
pure air is while they ride to and from
work.
Now, why should the weaker sex be
deprived of their liberty to breathe the
fresh air during those few moments?
Not only is It disagreeable, but many
who are unaccustomed to smoke pc
come positively sick from breathing the
fumes. l believe a real gentleman
would be willing to make the sacrltlce
for a half hour until he reaches ms
home. where his common sense wife
will enjoy with him his "hard-earned
Measure" of smoking to his heart s
content. UNCOMMON SENSE

MANANA

NAN FRANCISCO, California, and
~ Messina, Sicily, are a long dis
~ tance from each other-more than
six thousand miles Evidently they are
as wide apart in the way Of doing
things which means that the Amer
lean and the Latin methods remind
you Of each other because they're so
different.
The Chicago Record d-Herald notes the
fact that il is nearly two years since
Americans put their hands into their
pockets for Mcssina and sent men and
materials 10 build a temporary town.
1t is natural to ask, therefore, at about
this time what Messina has done to re-
cover itself. The answer appears to be:
Next to nothing,
According to last reports, the city,
as seen from the sea, looks just as 1t
did Immediately after the great dis
aster. 1t Is a. screen of masonry be-
hind which are dust and desolation,
imDassable streets and general slack
ness and Incompetence,
The Siciliuns are still boasting Of the
Messina that is to be. Meanwhile they
lodge in the American huts, and not
even the ruins are cleared away.
During these years, as the Record
Herald points out, san Francisco has
rebuilt itself and is greater, more hope
ful and more beautiful than ever. Could
there be more striking contrast be-
tween two countries or better explain
alton in a word why the more ambi-
tious of Europe besiege our shores?

enc on the other side who says ma

T. r. AS ONE SEES HIM

Editor Herald: One would have eX-
pected Sophia Hildreth (another who
mites "poor Val Stone" but helps him
none) to perceive that the definite
date" he called for was definite data"
until the printers devil got busy and
changed it, also that 1t is his faith IN
Teddy rather than he himself that
is crying for salvation.
Now, since all efforts to get facts
from T. r. worshipers have failed, sup
pose, in view Of their claims so vague
ly, If not noisily made, l seek to present
my difficulty in terms of what know
of T. r., it may enlighten those VINO
will not or cannot enlighten Val stone.
As nolice commissioner, T. r. in
vented a spiked club which even the
depraved New York police turned down
as too barbarous and brutal
AS historian, he has shown himself
ill-informed and biggoted, glorifying the
mean and unworthy, while vilifying the
great and good Those who have read
Roosevelt's ''Life of Governeur Morris"
and Conway's Life of Paine know
this; those who do not know should
read Conway's evidence against Roose-
velt's bold unfounded assertions.
AS a soldier Roosevelt charged up
San Juan hill on a horse that wasn't [
there. Also q do hope this is mis-
take) he is said to have admitted shoot
ing a Spaniard in the back.
AS a hunter. we have his own telling
how he slaughtered so many score OF
beautiful birds" in SO many minutes,
Gripping his gun finger; also how ne

One does not have to be very
sapient observer of life to realize that
by far the greater number of divorces
are brought about by the merest trifies.
Without having at hand any statistics
on the subject, we should venture TO
say that not % per cent of divorces are
granted on those statutory grounds
which the Episcopal church recog-
nizes as the only sound reason for
divorce. There is, we think, world of
hope in the establishment in New York
city of a new court, which is called the
court of domestic relations. Its sole
purpose and function is to act as a
clearing house for marital squabbles.
The presiding judge is Magistrate
Robert Cornell, a man who has given
some time to the study of divorce and
it's causes, and he has learned, by ex-
perience that in any trouble between
husband and wife there is something
TO be said on each side of the ques-
ton; that, If there had been provided
some means for arbitration from the
outside, the trouble would have been
settled and divorce made unnecessary.
Magistrate Cornell says that the two

TIE POOR SMOKER

Editor Herald: Are you in touch with
the woes of the poor downtrouueh
working man as shown up by some OF
your late correspondents? They ousnt
to be emphasized. He has to arise on
so early in the morning, in order 10
have lust a short hour in which 10 eat
and smoke, before he must start tor
his days labor, and then spend four
long hours of thankless toll, during
which he is sometimes not allowed TO
light his pipe or take a few whitfs at
a cigarette, and then after being on ms
feet all this time he only has Sixty
minutes to eat and smoke, when ne
must again move to his heartbreaklng
toll for four hours more, under the
direction of some minion of wealth OF
soulless corporation. before he can
again. almost exhausted from his en-
forced abstinence, find relief in smoke;
But then. oh then, comes a blessed
respite, four. five, six hours 10 eau
drink and smoke. Only here ana there
a heartless woman. or an effemlnate
man, are voicing objections to ten or
fifteen minutes in his company on the
cars because they don't smoke! Let
them learn to, then. What does IL
matter what they want, anyhow?

We sometimes hear It said that a
feeling of rancor toward the rich is
growing up in this country, but we VEN
ture to say that there is not sane
person anywhere who would hold an
unkind thought of such as DR.. Pear
son. What he got he obtained by
talent of accumulation, wisely and hon
estly exercised, and by prudent man
agement. He recognized his duty to
society. He realized that he was
steward and had no right to devote
his gains to selfish pleasure, either in
the form of boarding or dissipation. He
was his own executor and wise and
kindly one, his memory will be an in
cense long after his spirit and body
have left us.
Most of the problems that are rocking
society today and threatening its sta
bility would not exist if our rich men
we're of the mind of DR.. Pearson. In
its last analysis, the world is Ill Of
greed and selfishness, nothing else.
Whatever hatred of the rich has grown
up the rich themselves, and their
methods of gain, are responsible for.

THE WESTERN EMPIRE

NTO state is more interested than
N California in the Trans-Miss s.
~ sippi congress which is to meet
in San Antonio, Tex, on November y
next, for it is a business mems gath
ering that will endeavor to promote the
material welfare of the part of the
country on this side of the great river,
which divides what is termed the west
from the east.
Sixty per cent of the area of the
country is this side of the river, and
60 per cent of the exports go from this
region This includes the immense
cereal crops. If the trans mississippi
country is going to grow in manufac-
turing and the arts, as there is every
reason to believe, the day is not far
distant when the percentage will pre-
dominate still more in our favor. 1t is
to devise means to hasten the day that
the Trans Mississippi congress exists,
To cope with the rapidly arising
problem involved, we must have plans
wisely and definitely laid. Bounteous
harvests require expansive markets, so
do enlarged industries. New towns
must be built up, for some day this
land will be fecked with great cities
as populous as some of the eastern
metropolises. 1t is essential therefore
that all the western states be repre-
sented at this congress and spirit
of deadly earnestness dominate it, 1t
is not a mere meeting; it is a conven-
tion of business men whose work is to
plan for the forward movement of
commerce.
From the foundation of the republic
the states along the Atlantic seaboard
have dominated the country, its legis-
lation, education, art and general
thought The younger generation now
living is going to see this wholly
changed.
