ABOUT WEIGHTS.

Inquiry is made as to the weight of
the Editors pig. He has said nothing
about it, and a few suspicious people
have said that the reason of his sill
ence was due to the fact that he had
no hog ut all. But he did, and i. il
weighed 80 lbs. We made no great
to do about it because it was not an
extra weight. The hog. Il cross be-
tween Poland China and o i. c..
was about ID months old, and should
have been larger. For some reason
the pig did not do well. John r.
Barns reports one, about 2 years old,
weighing 600. Bob Kincer, 2 weigh
ing 412 each. Ed. Hale reports sew
eral 7-months pigs weighing over
200, which is about the best results
so far reported. According to this re-
port MIR. Barns is entitled to the
prize of years subscription to this
paper. The scarcity of corn caused
many farmers to butcher their nias
earlier than they would otherwise
have done.

The suffragette Discouraged

From Blackstone Courier:
Those who are disposed to advocate
woman suffrage should note some of
the things being said and written con-
corning this question. Recently re-
port appeared in some of the papers
purporting to be an interview wit h
lone of the most noted authors and
lecturers for the cause" This woman
says the women are doing harm to
their cause by the manner of their
dress. She also goes for the long hat
pins from which legal relief has been
sought by those menaced. She says
the charge is made, and not without
foundation. that if the women have
not sense enough to dress themselves
in decent and proper manner, they
have not enough to cast an intelligent
ballot. Here are two paragraphs from
the interview with this prominent
woman advocate of equal suffrage:
''The most influential women have
worn dresses on the street and in
public places in which woman of
the demi'monde would not have APP
peared few years ago. They have
exposed figures in so shameless a way
that one is forced to suspect that if
they have appeared modest in the
past it was only because custom de-
manded it and from no innate refine
ment.
cit is impossible to 90 ON the
street without seeing the contempt
men feel for these women and hear
ing the snccrs and remarks directed
toward them. And as result mer
say women have shown themselves
unfit for suffrage or anything but
dress and bridge and the most frivo.
lous amusements.
This suilragette also goes after the
different styles of skirts, saying they
cause her to feel that their case i.
hopeless. Here is Il little shot sh,
fires at these. 81 was never so dis
couragcd over the problems of womel
as when they adpoted the tight iittint
shirt, variously known as the sheath
hobble or the tuble.' 1t seemed to m,
then that our case was hopeless.
Now if the women talk about eacl
other, and their styles of dress, il
this manner, what must they expec
from the men ?Only what has so ofte
been shwon to be the case, that me
are more charitable towards wome
than are the members of their ow
sex. But with it all, the sulrraeett
is becoming militant, and the men
we'll perhaps, more clleminatc.
