MESSAGE TO THE WOMB
SONS, LOVERS, HUSH
CY HERBERT QUICK.
There is a crisis in American af-
fairs today.
The women of America are so Vi
tally concerned in it that l despair of
making my words strong enough to
carry my message.
In all my life l never felt as do to-
day the necessity of words which
burn and sting and arouse.
All l can say to the women of
America is this:
Your sons are in danger! Your
lovers are in peril! There is a damn
able conspiracy to tear them from
you and kill them, or return them
to you crippled, diseased in body, dis
eased in soul!
This awful peril lies in hellish
conspiracy to make our government
go to war with Mexico.
The thing back of it is greed. Great
interests want Mexico conquered and
annexed to the United States. Own
ers of great newspapers are also the
owners of great estates in Mexico,
which will be tripIed in value the day
the Stars and Stripes wave over that
land. Senators stand up in the halls
of Congress and demand Intervention
in Mexico because their own interests
will be made more valuable.
They talk of honor; but they think
of dollars.
The word is going forth to every
newspaper Office which can be cor
rupted or controlled by these inter
ests in mines and oil and cattle and |
lands to write in such a manner as
to bring on war. Men who hate the |
things they write are writing them to |
save their jobs.
Unless the women of America |
rouse themselves and act, this diaboi-

ciety cctivities, and save your men
folk from this peril. If we intervene
in Mexico do not think that it will not
concern you.
1t will mean war of many years.
1t will mean the subjugation of six
teen millions of people.
1t will mean that every militiaman
in the United States will be called to
the colors and sent across the Rio
Grande to fight for a cause in which
none of us has the slightest interest.
1t will mean call after call for volun-
teers.
1t will not mean less bloodshed in
Mexico, but more It will mean not
less suffering on the part of the poor
Mexicans, but more. 1t will mean not
less money for the American YAM
pires who are conspiring against your
home, but more vastly more!
Call meetings!
Write for the press!
Agitate!
Lay down the law that the women
of America are willing to ''endure"
disorder in Mexico, not for one year,
but forever, rather than send a sim

Mexico. The time is short, perhaps.

may be given to the doorway.
When it is necessary to cut down
a window to give entrance TO the
outdoor room, the two-leayed French
windows will be most satisfactory
between the communicating rooms.

AN IDEAL
VERANDA
By EDNA EGAN.

|TT HEN the roomy veranda forms
|kIl| an angle and extends along
Sl the side of the house back
to the dining room-after
reaching across the front--the out
door dining room readily is attached
to the outdoor living room. When
there Is simply little old-fashioned
porch over the front doorway, or a
little square porch at one end of the
house, the situation will become more
difficult; but vine-screened extern
sion may solve the problem at small
cost.
When home" is represented by
the straight unpromising lines of a
city-block house, without any sort
OF porch, with marble or brownstone
steps IN front and only little yard
at the back, 1t is still worth while
to battle with adverse circumstances.
Porch rooms of some sort are pos
sible for every home. To begin with
the problem that Is seemingly most
difficult. that of the city house built
solldly in a row with no possible
space for front porch on tho first
noor. nor for a second-story extern
sion, ones efforts must be devoted
to the back of the house.
A strong kitchen table of the
double drop-leaf type will prove the
best for the outdoor dining table.
With folded leaves. 1t Will take up
but little space when not in use for
dining and will allow sitting room
conveniences between meals.
Plain mission chairs will be su,t-
able for dining room and sitting room
and Will Lot be injured by use In
the yard when its paved and flower
bordered space extends the outdoor
room beyond the limits Of the rooted
inclosure.
The outdoor room of the second
story will prove the most difficult
problem. When 1t Is merely deck
extension over the roof of the dining
room. a railing will be required for
protection and to serve rs finish
tor tho sides Of the room. when
awnings. rods and braces are to he
considered for roof shelter one must
give careful study to details.

A good idea in working the extreme

miniature briar or loop stitch in those
parts to impart the fragile appearance.

KENTUCKY HORSEFLESH PRE.EMINENT
| THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE WORLD
Three Thousand Dollar Prize Earth's I'm
Equalled Equines Allured By Dazzling Stake
In Commissioner Of Agriculture's Five Gated
Saddle Horse Ring

Kentucky horseflesh is recognized
as pre-eminent throughout the world
and it is, therefore, only fitting that
the state should boast the greatest
premium ever offered in a contest for
equine class, as will be the case when
the champion saddle horses Of the
world gather at the twelfth annual
Kentucky State Fair, to be held Sep
TENDER 14-19 next, to compete in the
Commissioner of Agriculture stake of
$4,000.
There has never been a like sum
offered in a contest of this kind, the
nearest approach to the amount being
year in the same five-gaited saddle
horse event, for which ]. w. Newman,
Commissioner of Agriculture, stands
sponsor.
The announcement of this award In
the classification of the horse depart
ment of the State Fair catalogue for
1914, will be certain to cause a sensa-
ton among horse owners and breeders
throughout the country, and it is an
assured fact that the greatest lineup
of blue-blooded animals the country
has ever witnessed will be in the big
hippodrome ring on the night of Fri
day, September Is.
In Eight Classificatiors.
The $4,000 premium is to be divided
into eight classifications, the first be-
ing $3.50, the second $500, the third
$3.50, the fourth $500, the fifth $3.50,
the sixth $500, the seventh $3.50, the
eighth 5000. with a 800 silver trophy
going to the winner of the first money.
The fact that Hazel Dawn, winner OF
last years $4,000 stake and the $1,000
for the year prior, is eliminated from
the contest this year by her sale,
