nlcELow on WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

Last week there was a great parade
of the woman suffragists In New York.
II was an Impressive spectacle, ana
showed that the fight Is still on for
the recognition of women as intellt-
sent members Of established society.
When old Jonn Bigelow. "the mobiles;
Roman of them all" now we'll past
his middle nineties, was asked what nc
thought OF the cause OF the marchers,
he said: @
II have always been an advocate
and defender of popular sovereignty.
and have never seen any reason why
universal franchise SHOULD be extended
to the male sex and not to The female
sen, and why my butler or bootbiack
should enjoy the suffrage and my wife
and sisters should be deprived of it
That is a very plain way OF stating
the question. but we doubt thati 1t Will
make the least impression upon those
who are opposed to woman suffrage on
traditional grounds

there VIII be no changes in the styles

be true.

INFLUENCE OF BOOKS
The Power Of Good or Evil In
Them Is Very Great.
BY EDNA EGAN.

With the appearance of a novel
about art and artists a few weeks ago
$4,000 girls stormed the studios
of New York, Philadelphia and Chi
cago, seeking positions as models,
while romantic reading lies back of
the divorce suits of two young wom-
en- who eloped with men they knew
little about because they had been in
culcated with the theory of love at
first sight in a series of novels.
But all this doesn't affect me, !"
you say. On the contrary all this af-
fects every woman in so much that 1t
reveals the influence which books ex-
ert on their readers no matter how
unconscious the latter are of the sub
tie thoughts which creep into their
brains and remain there.
We may disguise our reasons for
reading books with the trite declara-
tion that we want to know all about
all phases Of life, or we may say that
our work requires the relaxation of
very light literature in the evenings,
or we gloss it all over by declaring
that it is necessary to read books that
are talked about to keep up-to-date,
but once we have read them we have
added bne more little factor in the
never ceasing battle of determination
to do the big things of life versus in
clination and impulse
Books offer such alluring pictures
of life, even its most wretched sides,
and it is so human to be eager to play
the role of a heroine in life as the
girl you fancy you are like plays it
in the book, that it is no wonder that
women succumb It's after all just
a grown-up way of playing at make
believe isn't it? And even though
you do it only in your own mind, it is
bound to exert an influence upon you
in everyday life.
So don't read a book just because
somebody whispers to you that "Of
course it's a frightfu1 book, but. my
dear. its revelations of life are. etc,
etc.

The travelling season is again upon

and it is capable of many and beau

There one of heavy moire silk,
with flowers of ribbon work on the
flap. Lovely, isn't it, in violet on

broidery on white marseilles; or in
blue stencil (two shades) on tan lin

Have you thought of the burnt
leather case, or of that of all-over
embroidery-pe perhaps in gold or sill

design in wash silk on linen; that,
you know, can be cleaned when de-

All Of these cases are made in bag

TO KeeP Young

1t is every woman's duty to keep
young as Ions as possible, but, IN
fortunately, she does not always
know the best way to live up to that
duty
Avoid Worry hurry and getting
hustered.
Learn salf-control. Anger is a rap
i'd wrinkle bringer.
Be temperate. Moderation does not
only refer to the stomach. Overdo-
ing in any way makes for premature
age.
Love the open air. Fresh air is not
a fad, it is ? necessity if one would
keep young.
Get plenty of sleep. Nothing lines
the face like nights of wakefulness.
Keep mentally alert. An intellec-
tual back number adds years to her
seeming age. Nothing makes for
youth like a young mind, save per-
haps young heart.
Don't let yourself get sluggish and
Indifferent. Here is where the bene-
fit of massage, physical culture and
vital interest in life comes in.

And don't read a book because
there is a hue and cry against it, or
for any reason except that you feel
that the story to be read will bring
something worth while into your life.
Prudery in literature is foolish
let US all Admit it-but If you exer-
else such great care over the books
which fall into the hands of your sons
and daughters, why not exercise a
similar, even If less rigid, censorship
over the books you read yourself and
beware their well-written phrases?
And, after all, there are so many
new books that are amusing and clean
and delightful, and so many, many
old books whose treasures are ever
new, that it Aardly seems worth while
to read The ones that are evil.
