MANS NHUMANITY TO WOMAN
By S. D. Bennett. Jr.

When one is confronted with the
question OF equal suffrage being &C
corded to man and to woman teeming
thought surge up clamoring for ex-
Preston Ramose in character and
Tausht with phases effecting all So
clal institutions and conventialities,
It's discussion seems interminabIe.
Nan, chivalric man. throughout the
ages has been prone to place woman
upon throne, aspiring to keep her
separate and apart from the crude,
harsh and material phases Of life
looking to her as a source Of love and
balm for crushed ambition-a fount
Of hope and inspiration 70 renewed
nndeavors. This spirit, handed down
from generation to generation, of re-
Earding woman as superior in the pos
session Of the finer elements Of nature
and inferior in the solution Of practi
cal problems of existence has formed
the moats and bulwarks around the
citadel that man has builded about
MS little world OF masculinity.
The present assaults being made by
women upon the supposedly vested
rights or man in the possession Of the
ballot is arousing the fear that THE
female OF the species Is more deadly
than the male" so he seems to see
with prophetic vision that the acquisi-
ton OF millions OF women to the ranks

SEWING MACHINES
FOR SOUTH AMERICA

New York. Nov. 23 While the
business of manufacturers of sewing
machines has fallen slightly below
the record of last year, signs of a re-
vival are apparent in the demand
for machines used chiefly in the
manufacture of underwear. The
placing of large orders for war ma
terials in this country by foreign
nations has resulted In good de-
mand for certain machines particu-
larly those suited for edging blank
cts. The loss of the regular Euro
pcan business has been replaced to
a certain extent by large purchases
of machines in England and France
for stitching blankets, underwear,
puttccs, and other army supplies.
Ono of the leading manufacturers
says his firm is looking forward to
an increased business with South
America, due to the elimination OF
German competition. Many inquiries
have been received from manufac-
turcrs in the southern continent as
to whether parts for the German
machines could be supplied by firms
here. This particular firm makes
supplies only for machines of their
own manufacture, as do most of the
ether large concerns; and sooner or
later South American interests will
have to discard the foreign machine,
due to inability to repair breaka@cs
and replace it with the American ar
ticle.

JUGGLING BETTER PRICES

New York, Nov 23-The inves-
tigation being conducted by the
State into the prices of butter, eggs
and food will be continued today.
At the recent hearing James s. Pet
tit of Petit & Reed, admitted that
the rules of the Mercantile Ex-
change end themselves to manipula-
tions by the members for selfish mo-
tives. He declared most of the
troubles of the exchange are brought
about by the members themselves,
who manipulate the market for
their own ends. He gave as an ex-
ample the fact that man can offer
bigger price than usual for the
highest grade of butter, of which
there may be only fifty tubs in New
York. and at the same time call for
800 tubs. This causes other men
not on the inside to raise the prices
of the lower grades OF butter all
along the line. A man who has
large supply and wants to unload
can have a dummy offer lower prices
on the exchange and cause receivers
! to lower the prices Of all grades &C.
