Bismarck, y. D.. March "A final
day rush of business. almost without
precedent. faced the house of repre-
sentatives. when that body convened
this morning for the last day Of the
assembly. There were. when the noon
recess was taken, total of about
seventy bills on the calendar for pass
age and in addition there were about
forty house bills that had been re-
turned from the senate with amend
ments. which fact necessitates their
passage of the measures. There will
be still other bills returned by the sem
ate with amendments. and it is safe to
say that fully 140 to $50 bills will be
considered. Complications may arise
at any time, which will prevent the
consideration of the business that
confronts the house.
With the initiative and referendum
legislation still up for consideration.
and with the Bronson and Cashel
women suffragette bills on the calen-
dar. there is good chance Of such
interruptions in the procedure. The
taken the center of interest, also is
still on the calendar. and if considera-
ton of it is reached there is certain to
be contest on it.
This morning Representative Owens
attempted to secure reconsideration
OF the vote by which senate bill 157
was passed yesterday. but he failed.
This bill relates to women's suffra ge.
providing for the submission of the
question to the people in the election
of 1915. He contended that the bill
had been passed yesterday without an
understanding of the question, and he
believed the members had right to
go on record. The roll was called. but
the reconsideration motion was lost.

about. not having any effect upon this
measure. The Bronson bill. which
provides for an election on tho ques-
tion in 1914 will be taken up late to-
day. supporters of the measure en-
pecting to raise it out of its regular
order for that purpose.
AS to the initiative and referendum.
the house this morning received
message from the senate. announcing
that the Ployhar-Blakemore bill had
been passed. The message came as a
result Of a clerical mistake in the SEN
ate, but occasioned a short debate by
the lower branch. which was stopped
by the arrival of the proper message.

by or o'clock this evening, unless
the body becomes involved in any par
ticular contest. Up to o'clock this
afternoon no further effort had been
made to revive the initiative and ref

but II is generally understood that an
attempt to do so will be taken. Should
this step be taken there is a possibility
Of bitter contest, and which may
hang UP other work.
One of the remarkable features of
the closing two days of the session has
been the large number of conference
commissions that have made neces-

demand for money and the in
adequacy of the supply for all pur-
poses.

GOOD ADVERTISING PAYS.

Before You Can Reap a Harvest You
Must First Sow the Seed.
The ordinary newspaper or periodical
reader doesn't dream of the potency Of
good advertising. One of the largest
general advertisers in the United
States, If not quite the largest. is a
manufactures in the Philadelphia met
ropOlitan district.
There is a ending race at that
plant between the advertising depart
ment and the builders. The advertisers
bring in SO much business that the
builders are kept busy charging the
factory.
Something like ST. 600 a year is
spent in advertising this company's
output. which is a luxury in every
ense. At the present moment orders
for new business are so far ahead of
the capacity Of the plant that it would
seem a hopeless job ever to catch up.
But the advertisers never relax.
The head of that great concern now
knows almost better than anybody else
that before you can reap a harvest you
must first SOW the seed. The advertis-
ers are the chaps that are doing that

scription Of the costumes being sent

There is a languor and abandon about

in no costume Of the seaso is this
phase Of the mode more apparent than
in afternoon frocks.

Clients Faced q Cooked Gun While
Handing Over Their Dust.
Many. years ago gold wal discovered
at Hokitka. on the west coast Of New,
Zealand. There was a rush to the
small Maori village. and within a few
weeks seventy vessels. Of all rigs and
tonnage, were waiting to get over the
dangerous harbor bar. The author Of
"Antipodean Notes" describes the first
bank established in the little town.
With the vessels came two agents Of
q local bank. Their bank furniture
consisted of a safe. a pair of scales. a
tent and a couple of revolvers. The
two agents set up their tent, put the
safe in the back part and a plank. laid
across two tree stumps. in front.
The bank STAIR sat down behind
the plank: before one man were the
scales. a bottle of acid and a note
book: the other held a cooked revolver.
The digger brought his gold to the
plank counter" where it was weigh
ed and tested. When the value was
determined the testing clerk unlocked
the safe. placed the gold in 1t, brought
out q bundle Of dirty banknotes and
handed them to the digger.
During this transaction the clerk
with the revolver looked carefully
about to see If any suspicious persons
were lurking near.

Where Red Hair i. pi.Iiked.


In Cornwall. particularly the Lands

a person "a red haired Dane" though
In most parts Of England. especially
inland, the expression would as likely
as not provoke no comment at all OF be
regarded al simply frivolous.
At q police court case heard In 1867
ut Penzance town hall 1t came out in
evidence that the defendant had called
the complainant "a red haired Dane"
and this led to an assault. The strong
r%epugnance of Cornishmen to be dub
bed by this strange appellation Is as
strong as ever.
The Celtic nations hated the Danes
and were always lighting them. And
not only in Cornwall. but also all along
our coasts, where the Danes or Morse

Business women all over the coun-
try are interested III a new movement
for ONE recently started by Miss
Florence King. a woman patent law
yer of Chicago. This is the Chicago
Woman's Association of Commerce,
which has already inspired similar in
stitutions in other cities.
This association is planned on the
same lines as the mems association Of
commerce, and in the Chicago branch
there are today more than 300 men,
bers, numbering business and profess
sional women. all regularly organized
the cooperation Of women. The slo-
gan of this new association is. LET
Us Help Each Other to Help Our
selves"
The need of cooperation among bust
ness and professional women has long
been recognized, but it remained for
Miss King to put it into actual work
ing order.
Miss Florence King, who is among
the bright, up to date women of the
hour, is one Of the four women law
yers of the United States who have
been admitted to practice in the Unit
ed States supreme court and is the
| only woman member. of the Patent
Bar association.
Miss King is q self made woman.
| She was born on a small farm. where
educational advantages were not to be
had. but by dint Of burning the mid
night oil when her household work was
done she fitted herself to enter high
school and later college, working her
way through and later taking up the
study of law, specializing after a few
years Of general practice in patent law.
She still loves farm life and finds
time in spite of her busy practice to
lecture throughout the country on the
black to the farm" movement, advo-
eating It not only for young men, but
for ome as well. She herself is the
owner of a large farm in Michigan,
which she works on shares and passes
as much of her time there In the sum-
mer rs she can from her work.
Miss Kings home is in a suburb Of
Chicago. where she has q charming
garden. This garden she delights in,
getting up spring and summer morn
ings at 8 o'clock and working evenings
among her plants after her return
from herscity Office.
This clever patent lawyer. is an ar
dent suffragist and believes that the
new association is only another step
in the right direction of women's ad-
vancement. progress and rights.
