 PRESENT ARGUMENTS
Everett P. Wheeler Replies to Dr..
 Anna Fl. Shaw.

Washington, Dee. 4-Women op- posed to equal suffrage had their in ming today before the house committee on rules to protest against the reso- lution championed by the women suf- fragiStS which would create a suf- frage standing committee in the house of representatives.
 Scores of women from various parts of the country. marshaIled by Mrs Ar thur Dodge of New York, appealed to the committee not to grant the suf- fTagists' plea Tomorrow the suf- fragists will be given an opportunity to answer the attack, Mrs. Catherine Waugh McCulloch of Chicago having been chosen to sum up the case.
 Though the anti suffrage women oc-
 cupied most of the day, their argu-
 ment was closed by a man, Everett the Man Suffrage association, who
 sounded a battle cry to the suffragists. Holding aloft a picture of Dr. Anna | Howard Shaw, president of the Amer ican National Association for Woman Suffrage, Nr- Wheeler said: When I saw this person here yes ! terday shake her cIenched fist and de clare We demand our rights I said to myself, 'C1enched fists mean fight The manhood of this nation has been 1 trained to respect and revere woman l hood and I claim that for American manhood today, but if we are chal- 1 1enged to fight this movement theAs l will be blows to give as well as blows 1 to take"
 MT. Wheeler paid a tribute to Miss
 Jax2e A1daYnss who addressed the com ! n4ifdee yesterday on behalf of equal ] suffrage and Nd6ci2red that it was ''an i i'll day for the nation when Jane Ad- | dams divided her attention to philan- 1 thropy for suffrage"

C., Feb. 21, 1913-I suffered from Rheu- matism for six years; tried every thing; spent a fortune fooling with half a hundred doctors, and finally took a trip to Hot Springs, Ark, for the baths.
