 Woman Suffrage as Nature Sees It To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 When the subject of woman suffrage presents itself to me I ask myself why 1t is that our women are becoming SC dissatisfied with the conditions of their welfare and happiness; why do they seek equal rights with man when nature has rleced so many obligations and responsi- bilities upon them as women?
 They say 1t is not fair for them tc obey the laws of man when they are no. permitted to help erect the ones who make the laws; nature Is saying 1t Is fair for them to obey the laws of God who lifted them up through Christian woman what she is today. We remember when man shirked his duties upor woman and she was held by man as slaves and made to work in the fields and earn the living while men were ir idleness, and it was Christian education and the laws of God that lifted her ul and placed her in the homes as man'i most treasured and protected companion and we call hcr wife and mother. thu two dearest words in tho English Ian guage to man. and 1t ls fair for her tt obey the laws of nature.
 At the thought of woman suffrage. na. ture presents itself. and think of i' with disgust and try so forgive 1t. fancy see the women lined up at thu NOtfhH piacch Tcudy tO CdBt tifcfF vOte with man. can see thom as they art gathered about in heated discussions and I fancy l can see tne hairpins ant rats flying as they disagree as to theil erinion I can See ths home that ough' to be in harmony and the quiet rest fol busy man turned into political hal with possibly the mother and daushter' on enc side and the father and sons oi the other and they engage in the dis agreeable political debate,
 I can see the many political office where woman is engaging in the Fespen sii,ilities of man, and can see the jur, boxes, the grand jury rooms filled witi women and the many other places wher men have shifted their duty upon wemai because she has legal right, But nature speaks to the woman.
