For Women
Russian Women and the War.

Russia in any degree?''
Pessimists and those unacauaintec
with conditions in Russia hold thai
| there will be no advancement, but they
do not know the facts. Russia has had
bad press agent. Or rather a negative
kind of press agency. America hear:
little but tales OF horror from Russia
tales which reveal a hopeless despotism
which is well-nigh impregnable.
But it is in that very country where
the existence Of an extreme autocracy
| is menace, that the seeds of rebellion
and the desire for personal liberty arc
sown the thickest. The very tales OF
horror from Russia Indicate the exist
ence of whole race of thinking, work
ing, highly intelligent men and women
who are ripe for rebellion.
Miriam Finn Scott, Russian woman,
who is lccturinC i'm America for the
board of education of New York. knows
from personal experience whereof she
speaks. She says:
No matter how this war ends, wheth-
er Russia is victorious or conquered,
she will have to face a revolution of the
fiercest sort. The woman question is
as much advanced in Russia as among
all intelligent peoples Even at the last

THE DUST HUNTER

LII of which brings me to some
~ very definite thoughts on house
n keeping. A woman who thinks
and dreams dust is as great a
bore as a nagging wife She is a nag
glhg ~lfe, for she hunts a man to
death with her views on order. A dust
expert can never be philosopher.
There's something about the micro
scopic inspection Of corners and the
backs OF pictures. that kills every germ
of mental growth. A head hunter is a
mild lunatic compared with a genuine
dust hunter. Both however. have that
wild. determined look in their eyes
The dust hunter furtively runs her
fingers over inaccessible mantelpiecca
in neighbor's house; she finds the
dark patch inadvertently forgotten; she
longs to dust the trees and fences. With
some excellent women this sort of
thing is an obsession And | am not

TESSIE TABBY RUNS AWAY.

then Crept down the stairs again. No
one was about, so she packed a IittIn
placed her dolly on top and started
off. She did not know where she

that was certain.
At first she hurried but after she

Three Minute
Journeys
By TEMPLE MANNING.


! FF the west coast of Africa
there is ar island called Fer
nando Po. in the interior of
which live a strange and very
shy race of natives called BOOBIES.
/ Booby in English. of course. means
stupid but the Boobie in Fernando Po
is far from a stupid fellow.
Living as they do in the densely wood
ed hills, they show extraordinary in
genuity and tireless perseverance in
subduing the thick jungle and In max
ing their way from place to place
through it. They DO not let the jungle
stop them at all when they wish to get
to any place. They start out in any
direction without thought Of easy paths,
end cut their way straight through to
where they want to go. 4 days hunt
ing with two Boobies left me at night
completely exhausted.
Armed with long guns and cutlasses.
we started at dawn. and no game that
We saw did the Boobies let pass From
tiny tree SQUIRRELS to small antelopeS
and monkeys, everything that came
their way was meat to them But the
most priced was the tree dassie. a pc
culiar. brindle-colored animal much of
the shape of large. lonG-haired guinsa
pig. but with the protruding tusks or
a wild pig Living in the tops of palms
and the ieafy tips Of the forest trees,
the dassie presents an almost comlcai
sight as il runs along the broad
branches from one tree to another.
The Boobies seem to determine the
presence of the dassie by sixth sense.
even the tiniest indication is enough
for them. Leaving one of the natives

scale the tree in no time and shake the
poor dassie down. Crash he would

him at bav until the hunters dispatched
him with their cutlasses.
