Some Don'ts for Seventeen

Don't fall in love because you are at
boarding school, and the other girls
consider it the proper thing.
Don't think you're in love just be-
cause you have been a bridesmaid
once.
Don't tell your intimate girl friend
about it when you do fall in love.
Don't tell anybody; let the young man
do the telling, and be sure that he
tells it to you first
Don't talk too mucn to the young
man; let him talk ali he wants to.
Most men prefer to do the talking
before marriage; your opportunity

Don't forget to ASK your sweet
hearts advice whether he's older or
younger than yourself-of course, you
can suit yourself about taking it.
Don't neglect to be a mother" to

they never can tell; but they don't

Defeat Of the Suffrage Amend
ment Only One Lost.

Columbus, o., Sept 4.-With the
exception of woman suffrage the Ohio
voters yesterday ratified the AZ propos-
ed constitutional amendments. The
initiative and referendum, judicial re-
form, city home rule, minimum wage,
the eighthour public work and the
compulsory primaries carried by large
majorities.
While the earliest figures on which
this result is based come almost en-
tirely from the larger cities of the
State, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus,
Toledo, and Dayton, it was in those
places where the suffragists waged
their most determined fights, and, pol
iticians said, the result would not be
changed by the final results. Most of
the more important of the ~ proposed
amendments, 1t is believed, will be
carried.
Vote On Leading Questions.
The first 327 precincts of the 5,197
in the State give the following vote:
Equal suffrage, yes, 1858; no. U.s.
l47.
Initiative and referendum. yes, 30
954; no, S,575.
Five million dollar good roads bonds
issue. yes, 22,072; no, 1866.
Municipal home rule, yes, S0,945; no,
1892
Liquor license, yes, 26,297; no, s.
S12
The women, il is said, will not
give up their fight for the ballot, how
ever, but plan to make use OF the in
itiative and referendum to gain an
other vote.
Owing to the complexities of the
ballot--it was necessary for each 20
ter to make AZ separate marks--the
vote was light The count, however,
was exceedingly slow,
Initiative and Referendum.
The initiative and referendum
provides for 10 per cent of
the voters to initiate constitutional
and per cent to initiate
a bill before the Legislature. On a
petition of per cent, the voters may
demand the submission OF bill pass
ed by the legislature for approval or
rejection.
Reports from the country precincts
based on estimates rather than actual
counts, We're that all Of the amend
ments were. suffering at the hands. OF
the voters.
The liquor license proposal IN
which great interest was conferred,
provides that licenses TO traffic in liz
uor shall be granted, subject to laws
that may be enacted by the Legislature.
It does not affect the present liquor
laws.

When Postmaster Henshaw was
seen this morning he said he had re-
ceiyed a copy of the instructions from
the postmaster general, and that the
only material change would be the

will be effected. Tomorrow the post

exception of the general delivery win,

The departments Interpretation of
the new law is believed to be as liber-
al as the proper regard for the CON
venience Of the public warrants. The
only sufferers from the operation Of
the law will be persons expecting
business or social mail of the first,
third and fourth classes. The subscrib-
ers to Sunday newspapers will receive
their papers as heretofore.
In the Postmaster Generals explain
alton of the departments construction
of the new law, Mr.. Hitchcock said:
instructions have peen forwarded
to all postmasters at city postofIices
of the first and second classes. These
instructions viii enable hotels, news
paper Offices and newsdealers to OBJ
tain their mail on next Sunday and
subsequent Sundays. They win also
make 1t possible for persons expect
ing mail of exceptional Importance to
obtain it in emergency cases ON Sun
day by making application to the post

made for the prompt delivery of all

cry stamps"

Discussion Is Closed

The Sunday-closing discussion, so
far as the PostofTice Department is
concerned, is regarded that the class
es Ct the public most interested in re
ceiying mail on Sunday must be salts
fed with the arrangement now made
effective.
The reader of the Sunday paper, the
publisher of the newspaper, and the
transient visitor to the city who may
expect mail forwarded TO his temper
airy quarters win receive service as in
the past The emergency provision
win leave the loophole necessary for
the legitimate extension of the priyil-
ege, but postmasters are not expected
to let this privilege grow into an
abuse.
