EVIDENCE MAKES QUITMA
MORE AND MORE {
Facts tending to show that the
Women's Protective League is
not the reform agency it pretends
to be are multiplying.
Louis Quitman, director and
sole manager of the affairs of the
league, never left the Examiner,
of which he formerly was star
reporter.
Quitman walked out of the
Hearst chop suey joint into the
dictatorship of the Women's Pro
tective League, and when he did
so he got a furlough from the
Examiner.
Furthermore, Quitm a n has
changed his views on vice and the
tenderIoin of Chicago most radi-
cally in surprisingly short space
of time.
1t is only a few months since
Quitman, under the pen name. of
Robert o. Harland, had published
a book which he entitled "The
Vice Bondage of a Great City or
The Wickedest City in the
World"
Here is a quotation from the
prelude TO this book written by
Quitman:,
The,reign of vice, graft and po-
itical corruption. Expose of the
monstrous vice trust. It's person
mel. Graft by the vice trust from
the army Of sin for its protection.
A score of forms of vice graft.

$4,000 unfortunate men and wo-
men; an evil that is blasting our
nations decency and prosperity
and is eating into the very vitals
of our republic.
Some of the concluding para
graphs of the book are as follows:
Overthrow the dynasty of vice!
Overthrow the corrupt political
system that established and today
sustains the vice trust!
In place of dives let US have gar
dens; in the place of dens of in

Now is the time of expurgation.

tic attack on its vice trust

Mothers and "Baby Talk"

A Kindergarten teacher, in speaking
Of the attack made on baby talk" by
one Of the Tufts college Instructors.
said: "Of course, we all know that
baby talk is poor substitute for tho
real language. but we know also that
1t Is the result of first effort. It will
always exist. and thank heaven for
It! The people who hate it are those
who are too matter-of-fact to be moth
erly. No mother teaches her baby
baby talk any moro than she teaches
1t to crawl and to adopt the Tufts
method. And to curb the lisping prat.
tie Of the baby, which is usually intel.
ligible to the mother only. would be
like forcing the youngster to stand
when 1t can only creep. To mothers
and women who know children tho
effort to check baby talk is only an
other of the questionable steps toward
making children 'grown.ups.'"

Women and the Farm,

It Is not so much because the farm.
sr's boys sought the cities as because
bis daughters refused to stay on the
farm that the rural population has
dwindled. At least, the council of the
National Bankers association, in ses.
sion in Westchester last week, came
to the conclusion that the greatest
drawback to inducing men to under
take farm work lies in the objections
made to 1t by the women folk. The
work in farm households is undeniably
heavy. One remedy proposed, and al
ready in operation in some of the
western states, is cooperative chain
Of laundries. They carry of the
weeks wash and return 1t at trivial
cost-ten cents is the carrying charge,
according to report-thus saving one
days hard labor for the women.-Nsw

CRITIC "WR0TE UP" WEDDING
His Regular Line Was tho Drama and
Customary style Showed In
His Work.

In the absence Of tho regular soch
ETY. reporter the dramatic critic of the
Daily Doings was detailed to cover q
wedding. I'll do the best I can" he
said. but I feel sure shall make .
mess of it."
This is what he turned in-omitting
the preliminary remarks about the
size of the house and the delay in be-
ginning the performances:
"Mr Barker, In the role of the
bridegroom. acted the part In a stiff
yet listless manner. He has q good
stage presence. but mars the effect by
a total lack Of animation and an al.
most inaudible voice. Miss Perkins,
as the bride, was much more effective.
Her costume was bewildering, yet
true to life. II one may venture to
criticize. her effort to overcome her
obvious stage fright was q trifle too
evident. She was In good voice, how
ever, and her enunciation was clear
and distinct.
1T must be pointed out that both
Miss Perkins and Mr.. Barker were
deficient In their lines, and had to be
prompted almost constantly by the
Rev. Henry Harper. who. as the off,
ciating clergyman. was decidedly the
star Of the performance"

BUTTERMILK LONGEVITY AID
Cells In the Body That Attack Mi.
crobes Feed on the Fluid, Say
tho Scientists.

Buttermilk will prolong the human
life for many years. That assertion
has been proved by several of the
leading physicians OF the world-Pas.
!eur and Metchnikoff of Paris.
In the blood are little cells known
as leucocytes. Those cells are the
scavengers of the body, and in their
concave surfaces are able to grasp a
germ or foreign body and force its
elimination from the human system.
The leucocytes figuratively speaking
are the home defenders Of the body.
Under the microscope the home de.
tenders can be seen flowing along in
the blood streams. Suddenly they will
stop as though they sensed some near
danger. Changing their shape to that
Of ' they will penetrate the blood
vessel wall and pick up stray germ,
probably typhoid or one of the many
other varieties.
When a person wounds the skin and
the blood runs the home defenders
rush to the afflicted part and project
themselves into the surface of the
abrasion, preventing the entrance of
outside germ life. They give up their
lives to attain their object and the
hard little ridges felt on both sides OF
slight wound are the leucocytes so
tightly impacted that, their lifeless
bodies help form scar tissue.
AS years pass that commendable &C.
ton Of sacrificing themselves so the
human body may live ceases and the
little friends of the body once knewn
as home defenders turn into a lawless
element. ravaging the body they once
defended.
Metchnikoff and Pasteur found that
buttermilk contained an element
which prevented the leucocytes from
ravaging the body. Experiments

writer's make, of going to or writing
to successful authors and asking them
how they did 1t. He didn't care red
cent how they got their plots or
worked up their situations. His story
would be his own in every particular.
And another thing worth recording
in Mr.. Rankin's favor is the fact that
after he had got his plot. laid his sit
uations, named the day and hour, and
had his hero III hiding behind brick
pile, he didn't take the two pages of
manuscript to this one and that one,
and ask them how they thought the
story would work out.
No, Sir and no Ma'am! Mr.. Rankin
didn't care peanut for the opinions
OF others on that particular line of
work. Had he been going to open a
sandstone quarry for the production
and sale Of grindstones, it would have
been different, but in this he was right
at home. He felt 1t from the very
first line he wrote. 1t was to be a
serial for magazine. When finished,
after seven long weeks of work
which of itself was great surprise to
his friends-the story came to an end,
and the author read 1t over with glow.
Ing self-satisfaction. Then 1t was sent
off to the magazine he had selected,
and Mr.. Rankin and divers other per
sons held their breath and walked
around on tip-toes.
Mr.. Rankin figured that it would be
at least a month before his check
came and the date of the beginning
Of the serial would be announced. He
was out in his figuring. No one can
ever get close line on those maya.
