HE SILVER FOX.

 He Is GIorifTed Freak of the Red
 Fox Breed.
 Only those wise in the woodlore of the north can fully know the magic in the name silver fox The silver fox $ not of different kind, but glcrifed freak of the red race. His parents may have been the commonest kind of red foxes, yet nature in extravagant mood may have showered all her gifts on this favored one of the offspring and not only clad him in a marvellous coat, but gifted him with speed and wind and brains above his kind to guard his perilous wealth. And need he has of all such power, for this exquisite robe is so mellow rich. so wonderful in style, with it's gloss black and delicate frosting. that it is the most desirable, the most precious of all furs, worth many times it's weight il gold, the no- blest peltry known to man. It Is the proper robe of kings. the appanage of great imperial thrones today, as was the tyrian purple in the days of Rome. This is indeed the hunters highest prize, but so guarded by tho cunning brain and the wind and limb of the beast himself that it is through rare good luck more than hunter skill that a few of these fur jewels are takel each year in the woods.
 There are degrees of rank anon these patricians. They range in qua ity even as diamonds range, and th hunters have a jargon of their own i express all shades between the eros and the finest silver black.-Ernef Thompson Seton in Century Magazine.

His Own Story of Wonderful Opera
 tion He Performed.
 1Ir Waiter B. Harris in his account of a journey to Taflet tells the story of a wonderful operation in surgery as it was reported to him by a native doctor who was travelling in his com pany:
 q think the old man fancfed that I doubted his skill. At least, he was all ways holding forth upon the subject and continually repeating the story that when ih Algeria he had been of fered fabulous salary-the sum va- ried each time the tale was to1d-to re- main in charge of the military hos pital at Alg1ers, an honor which he had declined.
 s.He never tired of narrating the facts and details of his most success ful operation. There is sect in Mo rocco called Hamacha, who are fol- lowers of certain saint buried near Mekinez. These devotees amuse their sudfence-an themselves, too, let us hope by throwing into the air heavy cannon balls, which they allow to fall upon their shaven crowns. On the oc- easion in question a Hamdushi had unfortunately been wanting in rel1- gioas power, for the cannon ball crushed his skull.
 ''My old shereef friend had been call ed to the rescue. According to his ac- count, he removed ythe broken patch of skull, replacing it with the rfnd of a green pumpkin, and closed the skin over it. In months time. he said. the patient was not only convalescent, but was once more hard at work prac- ticing his religio-acrobatie feats, with not only remode1ed and renovated skull, but even a new crop of hair"

SUFFRAGE DISTURBS D. A. R.
Candidacy Of Mrs. Story Worries
the Society Regulars.

The Daughters of the American RevolI-
ton are going to have an election in April,
and to add to the bitterness of the warfare
which usually precedes those occasions the
votes-for- women issue has been raised.
Mrs. William Cumming Story, of New
York, who is going to run against Mrs.
Matthew I. Scott. Of Illinois, the present
incumbent who is a candidate for re-elec-
ton. is a suffragist, and her opponents are
panicstricken lest by her election suffrage
debates should be introduced into the Con-
tinental Congress. Whatever their opinions
about votes-for-women may be. they say,
the society has troubles enough without in
Producing such a subject into it's councils.
In statement issued yesterday Mrs.
Story prints her record as the presiding
officer of various large organizations as
sufficient proof that these apprehensions
are causeleSs.
Il have frequently" she says, stood
alone in demanding that subjects such as
suffrage, politics and religion be debarred,
and when 1t has been impossible TO avoid
the discussion ] have insisted upon having
an equal debate from the affirmative and
the negative. The claim made by my oppo-
nents that I desire to bring suffrage into
the society of the Daughters of the Ameri-
can Revolution is absolutely untrue.

WAR ANEW ON CAR STEPS
Woman's Health League Says It
Means Business This Time.

New Years resolutions, which bid fair to
be kept We're drawn UP by the board OF
directors of the Women's Health Protective
Association at New Years luncheon
given yesterday by Mrs. Sara B. Crowell,
the treasurer at her home, No. 10H Fifth
avenue
A long suffering public is expected to hail
with joy the promise of the league to do
something to those terrible high steps on
the streetcars." Mrs. Ralph Trautman the
president, explained that the league means
business.
I'VE are going right to the heart of the
matter this time she said I'VE have
wasted time too often parleying with the
Public Service Commission and such peo-
pie. They just tell us it's too bad. but it
can't be helped. madam Now, we are
going to do something if we have to hire
an expert to help us. Just what action our
committee will take first we cannot tell
until after the annual meeting on Tues
day"
Another public nuisance whose days are
numbered is the plague of ''rots and spots"
which the league has heard is devastating
the city. The one or two members who
wanted to have all cold storage abolished
were overruled, and the league will work
only for time limit in cold storage and
for the determination of all products
which have exceeded that time limit.
To abolish bad eggs and high steps, how
ever. is not enough for the 127 members of
the league. who believe that all true re-
formers must carry on a constructive as
well as a destructive policy So nourish-
ing luncheons are to be furnished to pro-
tect the health of poor children In schools.
Two years ago for three weeks in the vaca-
ton schools the Health Protective League
provided crackers and milk for a cent or
two and it was from the success of that
venture that they have gained inspiration
for the larger work this year. As soon as
arrangements are completed with the Board
Of Education luncheons will be served in
tie most needy schools The system will
be self-supporting, and each child will
have to pay cash for his glass of milk. so
there will be no danger of pauperizing the
poor"
For all these new ventures. as we'll as
the maintenance of old ones, funds will
be needed, so the league directors decided
TO have a large and elaborate card party
early in the year. This plan for raising
the wind" has the further advantage, it
was pointed out, of attracting public at
tention to the society, which desires TO
gather to itself new members.
Details Of the new years work will be
arranged on Tuesday at the annual bust
ness meeting and election of officers at the
Academy Of Medicine, No II West 4Sd
