Roosevelt however, places the bal
lot as secondary to the home He
says;
The exercise of suffrage can new

rights or duties. Women's vital
need is a war against vice, frivolity,
cold selfishness and timid shrinking
from unnecessary risk and effort.
Vice, the folly of men and women,
leading to the divorce court or TAX

sterilty, are fundamental evils OF
prime importance.

Churchill outlined the intentions of

clared that no greater boon could
come to the empire than the settle

The presence in Belfast of the
largest military force ever gathered
to preserve peace among the Irish
factions combined with drenching
rain to check the bellicose ardor of
the anti-home rulers. whose hostility
was mainly vented by booing and
hooting
But that ugly temper was aroused
and the civic authorities were
alarmed by possible consequences is
shown by the fact that on their
advice Churchill left the city by a
special train TWO hours before the
announced time of his departure
thus disappointing a huge crowd
which assembled later to give him
a mixed send-off.
Churchill's speech was delivered
before an audience from which every
effort had been made to bar all

Medicine won't help you any,"
said the doctor, what you need is a
complete change in your living. Get
away to some quiet country spot
for a month, eat plenty of good
roast beef, drink plenty of good
rich milk, eat eggs by the dozen
and above all things smoke just
one cigar a day"
In month the patient returned
and looked very much improved.
Doctor" he said, the treatment
was all right. l had a good rest
the country air gave me an appe,
tite-I had complete rest, but
that darned one cigar a day nearly
killed me at first. It's no joke
starting to smoke at my time of

and romance as faxed" and untrue,
M. Friedman, superintendent of the
Carlisle Indian school, urges the
government censorship on such
films. He declares the pictures an
injustice to the red man and are
doing much harm.
Delineations of cruelty by the pic
ture" redskins are especially deplor-
ed by Superintendent Friedman. He
says few real Indians are used to
pose for the photo-plays and that
practically all are exaggerated.

generally insulting to the real In

his place in America as a good citi-

100000 WILLED
To POOR SHOP GIRL

BUDAPEST, Hungary, Feb. 8. -
Miss Iona Vardis of this city has
become multi-millionaire by an
accident that caused the death of
an admirer before he had time to
change a cuff on which he had
scrubbed his will as a joke.
llona was a shop girl in a fancy
goods store. An elderly man nam
ed kronyi, of shabby appearance,
was, her constant customer, and Of
ten sympathized with her because
her work was hard. One day he
was more sympathetic than usual,
and said:
For reward you shall have all
my money when l die | am an old
bachelor and have managed to save
a bit"
AS the other girls behind the coun-
ter laughed at the idea of his hav-
ing any money to leave, he turned
down his cheap paper cuff and
wrote:
Il appoint Iona Yards my sole
heir. After my death she is to in
herit all my estate, real and per
sonal"
Then he signed and dated this
impromptu will, laughed heartily at
his own little joke, shook hands with
Iona and left the store.
While crossing the street just
outside the store, he narrowly es-
capped being run down by car,
had fit from fright and died in
chemists shop a quarter of an
hour after he had scrubbed on his
cuff.

of his left hand and thus incapaci-

The money has been refunded to
the purchasers of tickets and future

The violinist was properly indig-

might be romancing, and his state
ment concerning his insurance was
substantiated by the management of

fingers are insured by the Lloyd
company for $235,OOO, but if he
should lose one of them he would
get nothing,
The policy provides only for disa-

more, insists on strict investiga-

paying for artistic indisposition, :"
