WOMEN ASSURED OF
BALLOT IN DENMARK

COPENHAGEN, Nov. 5.-Votes
for women in Denmark today is re-
garded as certainty following the
passage in the lower house Of parli-
ament of the constitution amendment
bill by an overwhelming majority.
The same bill, which went through
the lower house last year, was wreck
ed in the upper house because be-
sides providing for general female
enfranchisement it also embodies re-
form of the house of peers. Enemies
Of the measure tackled this on in a
last desperate measure to defeat
what was popularity demanded. But
at the last general election the pro-
gressives were returned in increased
numbers, and it is believed now that
in these circumstances the peers will
not persist In opposing full and com.
plete suffrage for women.

CENTER OF POPULATION.

WOODS Tor RuraD, Ind, Nov. s.
This hamlet which includes Ace
NOTIONS farm sagon Ratnse and
horse shoeing emporium, Hen Sut-
toms grocery, and Clint Sanders
store-not to mention eleven houses,
ten barns, fancier's HENRY and two
bright G. X. & l. railroad tracks
is the "median point" or center of
population of the United States.
The hasty geographers who follow
ing the 1910 census placed the cen.
ter Of population by the side of a
furniture factory in nearby Bloom
lngton (lnd.) overlooked this ham
let, which is known as both Woods
and Rural. The mixup over the right
name is beside the point, but the ma
tives here get along fairly well with
both names. When one stands in
Woods front main street, he can turn
to the east and say: Half of the
people in the United States are east
OF mel He can turn to the west and
say Half of the people of the Uni
ted States are west of mel" And of
the north and south he can say the
same. In the popular mind that is
what the center of population
mean. Scientifically, it is known as
the "median point" The Washing
ton authorities said it could be found
where latitude 80 degrees 10 minu-
tes and II seconds north intersected
S6 degrees 32 minutes and 20 sec
onds longitude west. And this is ex-
actiy where Woods Cor RuraD is
situated.

FURS THAT WILL BE
WORN THIS WINTER

LONDON, Nov. 5.-Some natural
color furs of the tint which they had
when part of the living animal, are
to be worn during the coming winter.
In former years nearly all furs worn
by women were dyed black or sitka,
a shade of black--and very rarely
have furs which retained their nat
ural colorings been worn.
Among the furs that are going to
be worn undyed is the fur of the
Canadian red fox-dressed in its nat
ural shape as well as color-to be
worn as stole. The fur is not real
ly red but more rich canary color,
most striking in appearance. A two
skin set, muff and stole, costs from
$32 to $75.
BLACK bear skins have already
rarely been worn in their natural
color except by coachmen, but this
winter the most fashionable women
will wear undyed furs of black bear"
well known fur dealer told the Uni
ted Press. II have been very much
amused just recently at an order to
convert couple of these black bear
