wards she broke out in rash all over her
body. The last sickness was similar and
the doctor was puzzled. She was very
nervous and we feared we would lose her.

To Vote Is a Duty, Not a Privilege
By THE REV. O. F. AKED, DID, LII. D.

MO citizen has right TO stay
away from the polls. The
sin OF doing nothing is the
deadllest of the seven deadly sins.
We can no more neglect the plain
duties OF citizenship than we can
refuse to pay our debts. Indeed,
the discharge OF the duties Of
citizenship is in essence the pay
ment Of a debt, a debt the more
sacred because one which only
honor can enforce. Our comfort.
our safety, our liberty, the edu-
cation OF our children. the we'll
being OF the home. the priceless
boons OF religion. have been won
for us by the unhonored toll OF
the obscure, the silent and the
dead. 1t Is dishonest to accept
and enjoy blessing for which we
have not labored while refusing
to contribute share Of unselflsh
service to the common stock, A
man who can say. 81 am not
interested in politics" and means
, by this that he is not Interested
in the good government Of his
city, ought to be ashamed of him

K is pleasant to observe how
the salvation Of American cities
proceeds apace. In 1898 l was a

that the drinking water on the ia

impression made upon ME by his
calm, matter of-tact reply: cor

Victories of Violence Are Transient
By Ebert HUBBARD

TyERE is a thought, penned in
kindness, for Mi-Lady Mil
liant by one who believes in
her Cause, but who deprecates
her methods.
The victories of violence are
transient
Things done in hate have to be
done all over
And she who smears hand-rails
with tar puts muriatic acid into
mail boxes, places bombs in an
art gallery, burns hay barns,
smashes windows, deties the po-
lice, and is taken to jail must
face the consequences of her mis-
deeds, just as II she were a male
man.
Two wrongs do not make a
right.
Even though the woman wins
by violence, her victory is bought
at the price OF her womanhood.
Righteous wrath is often an
excuse for a bad temper.
Hatred OF the wrong soon yields
a diminishing return.
We become like the thing we
hate-aye, more, we are the thing
we hate.
Mi-Lady Militant hates the
tyranny of the male. Granting
that this tyranny exists, it has
grown up out Of the centuries,
and has been fixed in the ages by
usage. 1t was old when Abraham
bartered with Laban for Rachel,
and was a habit when Ruth
cleaned the fields of Boaz.
American women have been
wise in not resorting to militant
methods.
Fighting men acquire the fight
ing face.
The teImagant grows to look
the part
Her dominant attitude becomes
one Of superciliuus contempt, not
love. Eventually she is unloyiug,
unlovely and ENJOYABLE. and the
fighting attitude, continued, Will
disrupt any home, for when fight
ing becomes a habit, an excuse
for fighting is easily found

Challenge of the City" was pub
lished in 1907, He quotes what he
describes rs a warning Of James
Bryce. He says that a few years
ago as a company of Americans
We're about to sail for the United
States Mr.. Bryce said to them
GO back to your splendid world
across the sea; but don't you
make a failure OF 1t. You can not
go on IS years more in your great
cities as you have been doing.
Don't you do 1t, If you do, you
will set us Liberals back in Eu-
rope 500 years.
This may or may not be a fair
report of Mr.. Bryces words. But
in his own monumental "Ameri-
can Commonwealth" the problems
of city government are discussed
at length. The new and revised
edition OF 1910 repeats the ter
rible summing UP OF the original
work published % years before:
There is no denying that the
government of cities is the one
conspicuous failure Of the United
States"
None the less Mr. Bryce re-
fuses TO take a pessimistic view
Of the future, His final words
upon the subject are:
"All this is discouraging Yet
no one who studies the munich
pal history of the last decades
will doubt that things are better
than they were % years ago. The
newer frames of government are
an Improvement upon the older.
Rogues are less audacious. Good
citizens are more active. Party
spirit is still permitted to domi-
nate and pervert municipal poll
cies, yet the mischief II does is
more clearly discerned, and the
number OF those who resist It
daily increases. In the increase
Of that number and the growth
of a stronger sense OF civic duty
rather than IN any changes OF
mechanism lies the ultimate hope
for the reform Of city govern
ments"
