THE world Of mothers is rebelling
against painful childbirth. The
modern women, with her COM
plex duties, believes it crime to de-
pete her energy unnecessarily. The
old belief that woman should bring
forth her young in agony has been re-
placed by the saner one that it Is q
mothers duty 70 conserve her strength.
And so, because they believe the
twilight sleep childbirth method,
originated in Freiburg, Germany, will
insure painless birth, a group Of far
sighted women have organized an asso-
citation to give the world Of mothers
authentic information concerning this
treatment.
"Since the stories OF the twilight
mothers were published in various
magazines a food of inquiries from
women all over the country has poured
IN upon them" explained Mrs. Mary
Ware bennett, temporary chairman Of
the newly-formed association.
These three women, Mrs. Mary Sum
ner Boyd, Mrs. J. Temple Emmett and
Mrs. Phillip Carmody, found themselves
unable 20 answer all the letters. They
were impressed at the number Of
mothers interested IN a painless meth
cd Of childbirth and felt that an or
ganization was needed to give all the
information demanded.

Too much of this type Of glass would
be empowering IN a room, unoues-
tionably, but a yellow or deep purple
bowl, for example, filed with glass
fruit, such as apples, pears, peaches or
grapes, so arranged as to allow for
an electric bulb 70 be hidden beneath
them, is decidedly effective as a living
room OF dining table decoration. Like
wise the large covered completes Of
amber or green glass, sometimes filed
with dried rose leaves, and which have
become q fashionable substitute for the
tpergne or bowl Of flowers for the
centre Of the dinner table. They may be

true that effects in color and shapes Of

CIVIC IDEALS

~ CARCELY a higher compliment
could have been paid to Harris
~ burg by John Price Jackson,
State Commissioner of Labor
and Industry. than that of saying this
city comes nearer holding and carry
ing out the German civic ideals than
any other city of this country"
Experts in municipal affairs admit
that the Germans far outrank all other
peoples in their system of town gov
ernment and development. In other
words, Mr.. Jackson declares Harris
burg to be the nearest approach to the
best in the United States.
He points out that the beautiful
German cities have practically the
same plan of park, street, water,
school and playground development as
has Harrisburg; and that the ten
dency here, as in the Fatherland, is
to eliminate industry from the resi-
dental sections.
The Telegraph joins with Mr.. Jack
son in declaring that 1.-The patriotic
citizens of Harrisburg who have been
mostly responsible for the promotion
of Harrisburg's welfare during the
dozen years past deserve the thanks
of the people, not only of the city but
of the State"

BETTER BUSINESS

7 PROFESSIONALLY the effect of
the election has been to restore
~ confidence in business circles
throughout the country. Every
body feels that there will be curb on
the next Congressional it will not
continue to pile experiment upon ex-
pertinent in the way of business regu-
1ation of a doubtful nature. The re-
suit is that only a few days after the
eventual restoration of the Republican
party to power in the affairs of the
nation is assured by Tuesdays re-
markable turnover at the polls, a new
impetus is apparent in trade circles
throughout the land.
At the same time the beneficial
effect on American business due to the
war in Europe begins to make itself
felt. The trade balance destroyed by
the Underwood tariff, the effects of
which have been in a large measure
nullified by the war, is swinging again
in our direction. The latest figures
on exports show that there has been
a marked increase in the amount of
American goods sent abroad, the jump
last month being from $4,000, 900 to
Sal, 100000 for crude, and from $24,-
100000 to $27,OOO,OOO in partly manu-
factured foodstuffs.
With 20,000,0OO men under arms in
Europe it is easy to see why we must
be called upon to send food abroad.
Their consumption, if anything, has
Increased, and their productive ability
is almost nil. A large number of the
men afield are taken from the farms,
and the provisions of the United
States must be drawn upon very heav-
fly, indeed, if Europe hopes to keep
from going hungry during the re-
mainder of the war period.

ASSERTION.
By ella Wheeler wilcox


Copyright, 1914, by Star Company
I am serenity. Though passions beat
Like mighty billows on my helpless
heart.
I know beyond them lie the perfect
sweet
Serenity which patience can impart.
And when wild tempests in my bosom
rage,
peace, peace!" I cry; cit is by
heritage"
I am good health. Though fevers rack
my brain
And rude disorders mutriate my
strength,
A perfect restoration after pain
1 know shall be my recompense at
length.
And so through grievous day and
sleepless night
Health, health" I cry; sit is my
own by right"
I am success. Though hungry, cold,
ill-clad,
wander for a while. 1 smile and
say,
Tomorrow, for good fortune comes
'It is but for a time-I shall be glad
my way.
God is my father, He hath wealth
untold;
His wealth is mine-health, happiness

SATURDAY EVENING,

There is little danger to the forests
when the trees and foliage are wet. In
times of drought, however, cunning
becomes little less than q crime. We
know that gunners will disagree with
this, but no mans pleasure is worth
so much as the forests of single
mountainside. and hunting should be
forbidden when the wooded lands are
unusually dry.
Massachusetts has law giving the
Governor the authority in times OF
drought to put stop to hunting. Such
a condition now exists in that State and
the Governor has exercised his powers
by issuing a proclamation forbidding
hunting until such time as there has
been sufficient rainfall to reduce the
danger from forest fires.
Doubtless those barred from the
forests will not appreciate the fore
thought of the trainers of the law, but
IL is a good one and ought to be adopt
ed by the Pennsylvania Legislature at
its next session.

a SHORT SESSION

~ UTE a few of the members of
the State Senate have already
been interviewed regarding
their attitude toward legisla-
tion which the Governor elect favors
and it is significant that with practical
unanimity they indicate their pur-
pose to support him and his platform,
with a reservation here and there as
! to certain particular measures. Sen
ator John w. Hoke, of the Franklin
district, for instance, says:
will certainly support Cover
nor Brumbaugh on his platform for
local option and good roads. and on
all other progressive declarations
he has made.
This declaration has the right ring
and is in harmony with the statement
of Senator Sensenich, of the West
moreland district, who says:
will certainly support the Gov
ernor on local option, good roads
and all temperance legislation. In
fact, intend to stand by him on
all legislation advocated by him
during the last campaign.
other members of the Senate are
equally outspoken and while there is
almost certain to be differences as to
the exact form of remedial legis-
latlon it is apparent already that the
forthcoming session will witness a fine
| spirit of cooperation between the
executive and legislative branches in
constructive work. 1t is not to be eX-
pected for a moment that there will
l,n do
tails, but those who know and appre-
ciate the good sense of DR.. Brum-
baugh will not doubt that he will so
conduct the affairs of a great office as
to have the cordial support of the
lawmakers in both branches.
Inasmuch as the country has had a
surfeit of legislation and in view of
the fact that the Governor-e dur
ing his campaign frequently referred to
the superabundance of laws, it may be
reasonably hoped that the approach
ing session will be short and business
like to the end that Pennsylvania may
not have the additional burden of
State agitation affecting business
conditions Whatever is reasonable
and in harmony with the campaign
pledges should be quickly enacted into
law.
Then with the appropriation meas
ures out of the way the Legislature
will be ready to adjourn. Every day
of every session of the Legislature
beyond a reasonable period means
radical proposals, unnecessary irrita-
ton of the people and the upset of
experimental laws for which there is
no public demand.
So that the good of the State, the
tranquility of business and the inter
ests of the entire Commonwealth call
for a short, active and businesslike
session of the lawmakers.

JOHN DALzELIs COMMENT

John Dalzell, who for more than
twenty years represented the Thirtieth
Pennsylvania District in the House of
Representatives and who was retired
two years ago, said:
"I think the result yesterday was
due to the general dissatisfaction of
the people with the Democratic poll
cies, principally the tariff. They took
the first chance they had to express
their disapproval of the Democratic
tariff law. But the tariff alone was NOT
the cause of Democratic defeat The
people were impressed with the in
competency of the Democratic Admin
tration and they showed it in a man
ner that could not be misconstrued.
The victory is sweeping and indicates
that the people are able to reason for
themselves and to reach correct con-
clusions. In my opinion this is but the
forerunner of what will happen in the
presidential election two years hence.
The Republican party will be restored
to power and Republican policies win
ne enacted into law. Prosperity will
then take the place of industrial de-
preston"

WOMAN SUFFRAGE VOTE

WV HILE the forces at work for
M woman suffrage will no doubt
w be elated over the addition
of two suffrage States to those
already in the votes for women col
umn, they have really little over which
to rejoice as a result of Tuesdays
elections. In Missouri, Ohio, Ne
braska and the Dakotas the suffrage
amendments were defeated at the polls
and the cause set back some years at
least. The vote indicates that wher-
ever population is densest there suf-
frage received its severest blow.
In the West equal suffrage seems
to be much more popular than in the
East; all of the States granting their
women full rights with men lie west of
the Mississippi. But not all of the
States west of the great river have
registered themselves in its favor as
witness Nebraska and the Dakotas.
This holds true, however-that wher-
ever men are in largely superior num-
bers there woman suffrage is strong
est Wherever men and women meet
is open competition there the "votes
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1914-11-07

for women" cause usually receives the
most severe checks at the polls.
In Pennsylvania next year the Leg
islature will pass for the second time
on the suffrage amendments. Doubt
less it will be passed. Woman suf-
frage has become enough of an issue
in this State to permit the matter to
be decided at the polls. Let the voters
pass on the extension of the privilege.
Whatever the result the suffrage ques-
ton will then be settled in Pennsylva-
MIA for some time to come.

PENNsYLvANIA's REPUBLICANIsM

lFrom the Philadelphia Public Ledger.l
Doctor Brumbaugh's handsome plu-
rality of about $4,000 furnishes ire
fragable proof of the return of the
state to Republicanism. The lapse of
1912 had little to do with the States
fundamental Republicanism. 1t is II
significant fact that Pennsylvania has
for many years been more Republican
in national than in State issues. In the
past thirty-siX years Pennsylvania has
twice elected Democratic Governor,
but only once in forty-two years has
II failed to give its electoral vote to q
Republican.
Only once in over n generation have
the Republicans given a greater plu-
rality to their gubernatorial candidate
than was given to Doctor Brumbaugh; ;
the average pluralities for the eight
Governors elected by the party within
that period was 93,5S1.
