Says Albert Ashley, we'll known
Christiania correspondent: For the
past fortnight Norway has had a
woman member of parliament, Miss
Anna Rogstad. She has acquitted her
self splendidly and without doubt her
entry into the legislative chamber
marks an immense stride in the wo-
mans movement all over the world.
Her selection came about in an in
teresting way. In Norway at all elec-
tions a deputy is named for every
member, to take his place in the event
of prolonged absence or death. At
the last election General Braths was
returned for the Third division of
Christiania, with Miss Rogstad, q
teacher in one of the national schools,
as his deputy. Now, the general has
been on a holiday, so Miss Rogstad
has been able to undertake her re-
sponsibilities as legislator-the first
woman member of parliament in the
history of the Norwegian storthing.
Her reception has been most cordial
and her attitude on reforms has
strengthened the position of women
materially in Norway. Another leader
Of the Norwegian women, Miss Gina
Krog, who is we'll known in America,
stood for a Christiania division as
first candidate in 1909 and though de-

hopes are high among the women for
her return next time. Only two
women stood as first candidates, both
Socialists, and they were defeated.
Most of the women voters were on tie
side of the Moderate party and by no
means always supported the women
candidates who were in the thick of
the fighting. On that account many
critics contend that women actually
set the clock back instead of helping
legislation forward, directly they came
into the political arena. Miss Krog-
who edits suffrage paper-and her
associates, however, declare the reac-
tion is temporary and will pass at the
next contest. Woman's rights have
clearly been gaining in Scandinavia
ever since 1901, when the municipal
suffrage was given to Norwegian
women, on property qualification
Then, as women became more active
in local affairs, the basis was widened
to general municipal suffrage for
women, last year. Today there are
many women members of public bod
les in Norway, the progress being
greater in the towns than the coun-
try. In 1907 the parliamentary suf-
frage was adopted on the old munich
pal property qualification. Since then
a parliamentary committee has re-
ported in favor of universal female SUI
frage by small majority, but the
downfall of the Left party at the last
election has set the equalization of
the sexes back for the present

Important TO Mothers
Funds to Eight tuberculosis.


Based on reports from all parts or
the United States the National Assoc
citation for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis has issued statement
which shows that in 1910 nearly SI5.-
100000 was spent in the fight against
tuberculosis, as opposed to $S,0O0.0O9
spent in 1909. The largest item or er-
pense in 1910 was for treatment I'm
sanatoria and hospitals, $11, 376. 500 be-
ing expended for that purpose. or
more than double the amount for 1903
The anti-tuberculosis associations
spent $760,500, and the tuberculosis
dispensaries 1888, 900. The special mss-
nicipal and state expenditures aggre-
gated$1, 100000
The statement declares that the
most significant fact in the survey Of
the years work is the increase In the
percentage OF public money spent
While in 1909 53.5 per cent. Of the
total expenditure was from federal
state, municipal or county funds. S2.s
tions in 1910. The actual amount OF
public money spent in tuberculosis

more than double the amount FROM

indicates. the national association de-
clares, that anti-tuberculosis associx-

increased appropriations from pa6iia

The stranger turned TO Arima. Give
us the envelope" he said.
Arima approached the table. Orme
crowded back against the wall as far
as he could. knowing that the chances
OF escaping discovery were strongly
against him. But he was saved by the
very eagerness Of the others. They all
crowded about Arima, as he lifted the
cover, opened the drawer and took out
the envelope. so close did they stand
that Orme was out OF their angle OF
vision. The table cover fell again. and
he was safe. He resumed his position
at the peep-hole.
The stranger stepped TO the middle
of the room, the others gathering
around him. With quick jerk he
'ore the envelope open. and taking OF
the papers, ran his eye over them
rapidly. He uttered an exclamation.
What is it?" said Alcatrante. The
South Americans hand was shaking.
and perspiration stood out on his fore
head.
The Japanese snarled. "Tricked!
They've fooled us. That honorable
burglar Of yours got the wrong en-
velope."
Alcatrante snatched the papers.
Prospectus, he read, OF the Last
Dare Mining Company But do not
understand"
The Japanese glared at him angrily.
IF you had kept out OF this business"
he snapped, land let Maku attend to it,
everything would have been right,
Now your burglars have spoiled it."
He snatched back the harmless pros
pectuses and tore them in two. throw
ing the fragments to the floor and
grinding them under his heel.
Arima spoke. Pardon, honorable
sir, Maku say the right envelope was
taken from the safe Maku know"
"Ha, Then it was you who were
tricked-outwitted. That American
reached the tree before you last
evening and substituted these papers.
Go back to Japan, Arima. don't need
you"
Arima bowed submissively. AS for
the stranger. bis rage gave way to
despair.
What shall say to the emperor"
ne muttered. What shall say to the
emperor"
Then his feelings came again under
control; he looked calmly at Alca-
trante. Well" he said, what would
you suggest"
Alcatrante's face was puzzle. Every
shade of doubt, disappointment, anger,
suspicion and shrewd deduction passed
over it, He was putting into play that
marvellous power of concentration on
subtle issues that had enabled him to
play so brilliantly the role of interna-
tional under-dog. At last he smiled
and spoke.
Find the American" he said.
Suddenly there was a knock at the
door. Arima looked at his master. who
nodded indifferently and said: Yes.
see who it is. 1t can do no harm
now"
Orme heard the door open. What
startled him first was the acton of
Poritol, who stepped back to the wall,
his jaw dropping, his face picture of
embarrassment and fright Alcatrante
and the stranger showed amazement.
For a moment they stood thus in
silence, and then from the door came a
clear voice:
What? You here, Mr.. Alcatrante
And the japanese minister"
Orme almost sprang from his hiding
place The voice was the voice of the
girl!
