I had LETT the ONCE for . few mo-
ments, and when I returned she was
standing at the window, tall, grace
full gtrl-dgure In q mannish riding
habit, with a crop in her hand. Her
riding suit consisted Of a long linen
coat, which came far below the knees
and, when she turned suddenly to face
me with that eager gesture that Is 50
Characteristic, the long coat fiared
back to disclose the lesgings Of the
same linen. and high riding boots.
With this she wore a hat OF the same
shade that had just q feminine touch
in It's trimming. and her high stock
was unusual and very becoming.
There are many Interesting things
about Miss Eunice Thompson, but
there IL nothing quite as compelling
as her wonderful enthusiasm and her
pretty speaking voice. She is very
girlish, In spite of her mannish occu-
patton. and she is so intensely inter-
ested In her avocation that she COM

Il just ran in for a minute" she
said. as she seated herself In one OF
my big chairs, and tapped her riding
boots with her crop. Ever since I
came from Dayton I have wanted to
come to see you. Dear, but Dayton is
wonderful and / did have such good
time. Those people up there made
me feel-well. do you know they just
made me feel as II I were a real big

INFLUX OF GIRL

DR.. COOGLER OF BROWNSVILLE
CLAIMS RECORD OF oFFIcIAT-
ING AT GREATEST NUMBER OF
GIRL BIRTHS.
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL.


Brooksville, Fla, Oct. 4-Dr Adrian
C. CoogIer undoubtedly holds the rec
ord of officiating at the greatest num-
Der Of girl baby births, without a sin
gle boy baby to break the run" The
last twenty-four cases in which he has
assisted the stork every one of the ba-
bies have been girls, and not single
boy to relieve the sweet monotony"
If physicians in other parts of the
country are having the same expert
ence as is DIR. Coogler, the chance for
the Hobsons of Alabama and his kind,
to get to congress twenty years from
now will be almost nil, owing to the
fact that their political thunder will
have ceased to exist-there will be no
such thing as war cloud" because
we wouldn't be able to muster up
enough men to constitute a respecta-
Bile looking army.
However, it is among the possfbili-
ties that, If the unexpected should
really happen and the women become
largely In the majority In this coun-
try, congress might make arrange
ments to supply. the deficiency in the
armies of the country by adding com
panies, corps and brigades of suffra-
gettes.
We do not know just what kind of
fighting men" our women would
make, but it Is safe to presume that
they would be Cracker jacks" be-
cause Of the fact that they always
have filled their stations in life with
such a high degree of credit to them
selves and their families
If the present ratio holds UP here
as experienced by Dr.. Coogier and the
same thing Is not happening elsewhere
twenty years from today each and
every train coming into Brooksville
will be crowded with young men who
are coming bent on taking back with
them one OF God Almighty's sweetest

far and wide as the fairest, sweetest
and dearest beings on earth. and much |
