He began to walk restlessly up and

Measure Before Illinois

fBv Associated Press. }

SPRINGFIELD, H., March 2S.-Oppo-
nents of woman suffrage have planned
to make a vigorous attack on the senate
bill giving the ballot to women when 1t
comes up in the house today or tomor-
row. Miss Phoebe Couzins, of Washing
ton, d. c., former leader in women's suf-
frage ranks. but now a vigorous oppo-
nent, is in Springfield armed with a
speech TO be directed against the present
legislative bill.
The word is out to start the fight with
a rush. sweep the suffrage adherents off
their feet by unexpected bursts of oppo-
sition and wind up with an adverse roll
call.
A combination of senator's and repre-
sentatives have selected women to OPP
pose the suffrage bill, while they SIT
back. apparently in a judicial frame of
mind, awaiting the signal to kill the
measure.

Doane has refused to permit Mrs. Eliza

al League for the Promotion Of Purity,
to speak in All Saints Cathedral at the
convention Of the purity league, which

women keep silence in the churches; for

Speaking of the affair, the bishop said
that when he gave the league the right
to hold the convention in the cathedral

former, was to speak.

I dream of a flower garden,

"Once on time" as children say;
Such long, long years ago.
There in the farthest corner
Were Haunting hollyhocks,
And just a little nearer
The tall and stately phlox.
There. clumps Of everlastings,
Sweet william and columbine;
Here, marigolds and cockscomb,s
And a morning glory vine.
Sweet pinks along the pathway
Then balsams and four o'clocks;
Bachelor buttons and mourning bride
And migonette and stocks.

caught away her arm and ran quickly
down the path.
Daunt sprang up the hill, skirted the
building, gained its upper corridor, now
simmering with excitement and crossed
the bridge. Near its farther end a small
group stood about a figure, PROSTATE
beside the photograph whose cylinder

But something came between her gaze
and the pallid face-something which she
saw with the distinctness of a black pa

mering object, unnoted by the rest, which
had lain half concealed by bush-some-
thing that one day. a thousand years ago,
had glittered against Daunt's brown hair
as he saluted her from his horse! 1t
was a riding crop, whose Damascus ham
die bore the device of a fox's head.
Two hours later the corridors were
silent and the bishop and Daunt sat
together in the darkened Office, saying
few words, both thinking of a man lying
straight and alone-and of a girl in an
upper room whose promise he had taken
with him out of the world Daunt was
to leave Tokyo on the early morning

there listening to the moan of the rising
weather.
But a little while before the sky whit

Sore throat is Inflammation of the

If this membrane happens to be at all

Paxtine Toilet Antiseptic is both a
preventative and a cure for sore
throat because it possesses extraor-

CT water, used as gargle, will quick
ly relieve all soreness and strengthen
the mucous membrane of the throat,
and thus overcome all tendency to

An amusing incident is related of
a young service matron who had re-

and who, having before his departure
insisted on a good photograph. applied
herself assiduously to the upbringing
of her two-year-old baby with a view
to the child's familiarity with her dis
tinguished father. Each day she would
call the baby girl to her and, kneeling
beside her, would hold up the photo
graph, pointing out each feature to
the child
One day the officer came home, ard
the baby girl, then four years cid,
was summoned. Come, dear" said
the mother in glee, papa has come
home at last" The child surveyed
the officer in perplexity and finally
shook her head.
What Is the matter, dear?" asked
her mother. We'll" replied the child.
'he looks something like my papa, but
