Gettysburg, S. D., March l8.-All
ministers of all denominations have
been asked to give a part of the tithe
of their salaries to the cause of WON
ems suffrage by the South Dakota
state W. c.. T. u. The message OF the
president, Mrs. Anna r. Simmons.
Faulkton, and member of the franchise
department, came as u sudden shock to
many of the pastors, but they con-
sidered it novel and ingenious and some
may respond.
This move of the women to secure
funds from the pastors came after en-
couraging reports came from all parts
of South Dakota that the preachers
were warming up to suffrage and were
preaching special m as requested
by the w. C. II. u. on the suffrage
qSuestlons and were besieging n
headquarters at Faulkton for literature
to help them in preparing their ser
mons on suffrage.

Telling the Time by Wireless

these variations constitute the
syllables themselves of our new
electric speech.
This modern genieyof universal
intelligence can be set speaking
with a simple jet Of failing water.
Such a jet is exceedingly sensi-
tive TO the effects of mechanical
vibrations and if the jet is acid
ulated and connected in the cleo
trio circuit through which the
wireless waves are sent, it trans
mits its modulations to the cur
rent. The human voice Gets the
water jet aquiver, the cibrations
are transmitted in the form of
electric waves and at the receiv-
ing end are turned back again
into sound. On this principle is
based Vanni's hydraulic micro
phone, which recently sent wire
less telephone messages from
Italy to Tripoli.

Vegetarian Furs Are

Where once there were ten

And where ten years ago the

appetizing in taste and excellent

The writer recently met a man
of 3s who was in magnificent
health; virile, handsome and pos
sessed of a most brilliant mind.
An orator and a thinker of unu-
sual power, this man had never
in his life tasted meat, fish, fowl,
eggs, coffee, alcoholic drinks or
tobacco.
He was born and bred in India,
and his simple diet Of fruit, vege-
tables, cereals and milk with an
occasional dissipation in a cup of
weak tea) had sufficed to make
him what he was in brain and
body. The vegetarians have often
been confused when confronted by
the seeming necessity of furs in
cold weather to protect the body
from icy winds and zero temper

wy OMAN is slow. in her
w growth toward the stand
ard of life, which illus
trates in her daily and hourly
conduct the kindness and the
sympathy which are supposed to
be her chief characteristics New
er was this fact more clearly and
painfully illustrated than in the
anger and rebellion which the
majority Of women exhibited
when the law forbidding the i'm
porting or wearing of aigrettes
and plumage of dead birds was
enforced.
There was a resounding cry
against the tyranny Of American
laws and much sarcastic COM
ment on the land of the free.
Women who occupied high po-
sitions socially and in artistic cir
cles felt their rights had been
infringed upon, and they were
loud in denunciation Of the law
which interfered with their priv1-
lege to aid and abet the destruc-
ton of song birds and birds of
beautiful plumage.
The very fact that it requires a
law to prevent women from incit-
ing wholesale slaughter Of these
glorious little creatures is re-
Election on the sex.
But the enforcing OF this law
has awakened new brain cells in
the inventive organs of men and
women milliners, and we are see
ing most attractive hats composed
of materials which are far more
hygienic and more exquisite than
portions OF dead birds, and which
allow greater variety of taste to
be displayed in millinery skill.
And now come the vegetarian

Whenever there is an insistent
demand for anything in this world
1t creates supply.
The growth of the humane So
cieties and the spirit Of human
itarianism has given a remark
able impetus to the vegetarian or

of the boys for such cruel sport,
the father Of the boy came out,
and, though a perfect stranger,
was insolent in his remarks to
