The small boy of the household was

A Cleveland school teacher writes
that she asked her class what was the

to have any ideas on the subject.
Finally the light Of intelligence was
seen to shine in the eyes of one little
boy, and the preacher called upon him
to save the intellectual honor Of the

a SCIENTIST has been Iabori-
N ously explaining that woman
stands on lower plane in
evolution than man does, and is,
therefore. physically and mentally
his inferior. He says that structu-
rally woman is closer akin to our
great great grandpapa, the balloon,
than man, and that she also betrays
her nearer relationship to the mon
key by possessing the superabun-
dant curiosity that is characteris
tic of the simian tribe.
For these reasons he thinks that
orangoutangs and women should
not be permitted to vote
Oh, l don't know.
When a man wants to offer a
blighting criticism on femininity
he always makes few scathing re-
marks about curiosity, yet curiosity
is the beginning of wisdom. and
the hall mark of an active mind.
If it hadn't been for the curiosity
to see what would happen when you
put two and two together, we
should not now be enjoying the
sum of countless experiments that
make up civilization.

tween ignorance and knowledge.
The people who have no curiosity
concerning the things about them,
but who accept everything without
comment or question, are invariably
those of limited intelligence. and
who are heavy and loggy in mind
Therefore, curiosity is to be- ac-
counted unto its possessorR as a
virtue, and not fault
This Quality Needed.
! The contention that women are
more curious than men is an allie
cation that can not be substan-
tiated by fact, but if it were true it
would be no reflection on the femi-
nine character, and certainly no bar
to their acknowledgements.
Indeed, there is no other quality
that is more needed in voters Of the
present day than a large, robust Gu
riosity in good working order.
The majority of men are too busy
and too much engrossed in their
own business to have time to look
into public matters much, but
women have more leisure, and if
they spent part of it in prying into
public affairs many abuses that
now exist would be remedied
Perhaps the fear of womans Gu
riosity in such matters is the rea-
son the machine politicians are the
most determined opponents Of
woman suffrage. They are like the
janitor of the school who when he
was asked how he liked the woman
who had been elected to the school

week before she was shopping

Pelicans VS.. Excelsior Tomorrow.
In view of the rainy weather which
prevailed on Friday and Saturday of
last week, and the threatening out
look for Sunday, the game scheduled
to be played at Cleveland Park on
the latter day between the Pelicans
and the Thibodaux team was can
celied by the management of the To-
cal club Saturday evening. 1t is well
that this was done, since a steady
rain fell throughout the greater part
OF Sunday, precluding the possibility
OF a game On the local diamond
Tomorrow the Pelicans will have
as their opponents the well-known
Excelsior team, one of the strongest
aggregations in this section, whose
record for the present season shows
a long list of victories over many
OF the beading city and country clubs.
The st. James boys are anxious to
take a fall out Of the heretofore in
Vincible Pelicans, and will come to
Donaidsonville with a classy lineup
and a determination to show the
birds a thing or two about the ma
tlonal pastime. Puigh and Mang will
constitute the battery Nor the visitors,
and Dugas and Vegas will work for
The Pelicans. The game promises to |
be a rafting good one, and now that
sull train service on the T. and P.
las been resumed, it is likely that t
! very large crowd Of fans will be
On hand to enjoy the sport.
