at the table last night. The old gent
amt so good talker as Wilfred, but
he had something on brother because
he kept all the time throwing up to
Wilfred how he used to knock the
very cause that he is plugging for
now. There amt much comeback to
that kind Of arguments, and after
while Wilfred shut up. The row all
started over a fool poem that Wilfred
wrote last night called, Vote, Fair
Woman. Vote I brought 1t down to
read it to you.''
You didn't have to do that" said
the Head Barber
But please listen, George" i'm
plored the Manicure Lady. "On the
level, thisss so bad 1t is good. Lis

That right must not be denied to
you.
Men try to trample on thy throat,
And often they have lied to you.
From where the vast Pacific rolls

The new minister tried the same
plan. but the following Sunday was a
repetition of the others-a dismal
failure. The entire collection was not
only small, but, to his great conster-
nation, his own coins were missing.

e<xu YILFRED is going with a
M suffragette now," said the
Manicure Lady. He met
her at a lecture on poetry and other
pastimes the other night, and I guess
she must be different from most Of
the suffragettes that I have saw, be-
cause Wilfred says she is queen
and that she walks in beauty like
the night, whatever kind of way to
walk that is. He don't call her hair
hair at all, he calls 1t her tresses.
and instead of talking about her
swell lamps he says she has limped
orbs. I have had a lot of admirers,
George. but none of the gents that
ever shined up to me called my eyes
orbs. That orb line of talk might
have went in the old days. but plain
talk and a good bankroll wins more
of US trusting girls nowadays.
It's funny, George, how love will
differ man. The girl fellow loves
can make him change his mind
quicker than he changes his tie. Will
fred used to be fierce against the
suffragettes. He wrote a battle
hymn, he called 1t, for all the men
to sing, a kind of bark against
women even daring to think Of
having the sacred right of the ballot.
Il guess he didn't get no men to
sing 1t, but it was an awful panning
for the girls that wanted to vote
And the time the suffragettes had
their parade through the city not
very long ago Wilfred ran along with
the rest OF the cutups and roasted
the walking women as hard as he
could That was always Wilfreds
speed, anyhow. and I told him so that
night when he got home all tired and
hoarse. and the next time he asked
me for a five spot l turned him down

RULES FOR WOMEN
IN HOLDUP

Scream first Then use the first
trusty hat pin.
The use of few well chosen jiu
jitsu tricks will help women when
sneak thieves arrive or burglars in
wade the home.
Remember that burglar is on a
greater nervous strain than you are.
This is true OF the sneakthief also.
The weapon nature gave a woman
was scream. and in civilized COM
munities it is invincible In outlying
communities woman must resort to
other modes of defense. The hatpin
is the best weapon and most to be
depended on.
Don't be afraid to scream. Don't
depend on ehivalry Of strength. Use
the first weapon you can reach. If
you know few tricks of the bone
breaking variety you viii be able
to protect yourself.
Don't carry arms-they are dan
gerous. Don't carry more money
than your daily needs require. Don't
display expensive jewelry except
when you are positive you are pro-
tected. Don't go to places where you
are likely to be attacked. If you are
compelled to visit districts where dan
ger is possible, take precautions.
These are a few of the precau-
tions woman should take Others
will suggest themselves. Be guard
ed by intuition--it is a woman's best
guard and seldom fails This is the
advice of Mrs. Alice stebbins Wells.

Whatever Is-Is Best
BY Ella Wheeler Wilcox


r KNOW as my life grows older,
And mine. eyes have clearer sight
That under each rank wrong, somewhere
There lies the root of Right;
That each sorrow has its purpose,
By the sorrowing oft unguessed;
But as sure the sun brings morning,
Whatever is-is best
I know that each sinful action
AS sure as the night brings shade,
Is somewhere, some time punished,
Tho the hour be long delayed.
| know that the soul is aided
Sometimes by the hearts unrest,
And to grow means often to suffer
Whatever isis best
| know there are no errors
In the great eternal ptn,
And all things work together
For the final good of man.
And know when my soul speeds onward
In its grand eternal quest,
shall say as look back earthward,
Whatever isis best
