or the
Fairy Queen.

%YT dawned o. daddy that 1t was high time for him to tell the children a
fairy story, but before he had had time to suggest 1t Evelyn said:
"Oh, daddy, do tell is a story about the faiHeBI You haven't for just

mo" said daddy; that is quite true 1 was thinking that myself this
evening and had planned to tell you one Besides i haven't told you about
the swimming party they gave the other day.
1.-The chief feature of this party was the diving competition. For this com
petition the fairy queen offered a prize Of great big bunch of pond lilies
"Au the fairies entered the competition, Of course, and they all were such
excellent divers and able to make such wonderful leaps into the water that
the fairy queen could not make up her mind. Finally, though. she decided that
perhaps little Lightfoot fairy had made almost the most wonderful dives
But then. just at that moment Silver Wing made n of the most perfect dives

the life of her decide who should win the prize
$50 she decided she would make a little speech. She called all the fairies

Little fairies said she, 7 cannot begin to tell you how / have admired
the diving OF every one Of you
AT this all the fairies looked so happy and s. proud.
to decide on the winner of the prize. So 1 have decided that every n of you

"Whereupon the fairy queen presented to each little fairy a beautiful big
pond lily. And, oh, how happy and proud they all w@el
wonderful dives she could make.
"She was perfectly willing, for she loved to dive, and she always liked to
help along the parties all she could. So she made all the different dives she
knew, and the fairies capped their hands and were absolutely delighted.
"But one little fairy seemed to be missing.
"Where has little Golden Hair gone? some n suddenly shouted.
"The fairy queen stopped diving. and the fairies were just arranging to
look for her in various coves Of the little lake when she came in view, swim

Bryan Favors Woman
Suffffrage--Tells Why

and hat the addition Of suffrage
her attention away from the duties Of
the home. The answer made to this
is that the exercise of the franchise
might result in a change of thought
and occupation that would relieve the
monOtOny of Woman'S work and give
restful variety to her activities, and
surely the home will not suffer If the
mother, the child's first teacher, is
able to i~ntelilgently discuss with her
family the science of government and
the art of successfully administering
it.
Third, many well meaning men and
women affirm that suffrage would
work a harm to woman by lessening
the respect in which she is held. This
argument would have more weight
had it not been employed against ev-
the enlargement of woman's sphere.
This objection vas nee raised to the
higher education of woman, but it Is
no longer heard. The same objection
was offered each time the door has OPP
ened and woman, instead of suffering
degradation, has risen.
"These objections, however, honestly
advanced, have proven impotent to re-
tard woman's progress. May not the
fears sincerely entertained by the op-
poneLEs Of woman suffrage be found
to be as g~roundless as those that once
forced the widow in eastern India to
ascend the funeral pyre or as those
that exclude Mohammedan women
from the social benefits and RESPONSE
bilities which. the woman of the chris
ton world shares?
And are not the second and third
objections above stated refuted, to
some extent at least, by the fact that
in the states which have adopted
Woman's suffrage (and do their ma
tions that have adopted it) there Is
no agitation for a return to the sys-
tenn under which man has a monopoly
of The right to vote? Is it not fair to
assume that an effort would be made
to correct the mistake If woman's
suffrage had really failed to give sat-
lstaction to the people where it has
been tried?
IF n were In doubt as to which
SIDE or the controversy to take, he
would be justified in giving weight to
the fact that organization and enthus-
lasm are on the side of those who favor
Woman's suffrage. Organization is an
evidence of earnest as we'll as of COM
prehenslon of the subject. People do
not associate themselves together to
secure a given end until they have
reached a definite conclusion in regard
to its desirability and feel that its &C
which it calls. It is quite evident that
those who disinterestedly desire wo-
mans suffrage are willing to make
greater sacrifices to secure it than
those who disinterestedly oppose wo-
mems suffrage are willing to make te
prevent it.
LAS for myself, I am not in doubt as
to my duty. It is not my purpose tc
discuss the subject with elaboration al
this time, but I desire to present tn,
argument to which I give the great
weight. Without minimizing othe1
arguments advanced in support of tn
extending of suffrage to woman, I place
the emphasis upon the mothers righ,
to a. voice in moulding the environment,
which shall surround her children-ar
environment which operates fully il

WILL ULSTER REBEL?

There was an unusual celebration of
the anniversary of the battle of the
Boyne by Orangemen at both Belfast
and Londonderry on Monday. 1t was
unusual both in the number and the
aardor of those who took part and in
the lack of any riot or disturbance.
This latter was apparently not due to
an absence of the old feeling between
The sProtestants and Catholics in Ul-
Hter, but to the restraint put ur,on
their followers by the leaders of both
the unionists and the n~ationalists to
avoid anything that might precipitate
a premature conflict.
The unionists, under the lead of Sir
Edward Carson, have organized a sort
of preliminary provisional government
of Ulster, with a volunteer military
force ready for action. The national
lists also have a force Of volunteers,
but evidently they have no desiure for
IA local conflict, and are altogether on
the defensive, perhaps with the idea
of being of service to the government
in case there is any occasion for CO.
Arcion if the Ulster Orangemen should
really resist the application of the
nome rule policy.
Although Sir Edward Carson exhib-
its a decidedly bellicose spirit, it is
hardly conceivable that Ulster will
rise In rebellion against the British
government in any case. The home

Washington, July 17-Secretary
Bryan in a formal statement issued
last night came out for woman suf-
frase. He declared he would ask no
political right for himself, that he was
not willing to grant his wife, and an
nounced his intention of supporting
the PROPOSED state constitutional
amendment extending the franchise to
women to be voted upon in Nebraska
next November.
Woman, Mr.. Bryan said, had proved
herself equal to every responsibility
imposed upon her, and would not fail
society in this emergency. Above all
other arguments in favor Of giving her
the ballot, he placed the right of the
mother to a voice in the moulding of
the environment of her children. The
mother" the secretary said, can just
ly claim the right to employ every
weapon which can be made effective
for the protection of those whose in
terests she guards and the ballot will
| put within her reach the instrumental
tiles Of government, including the po-
lice power
The statement follows IN full:
THE voters of Nebraska will at the
election next November adopt or re-
iect a proposed amendment extending
suffrage to women on equal terms
with men. AS a citizen of that state
it will be my duty to participate in
the decision to be rendered at the
polls. l have delayed expressing an
opinion on this subject, partly because
II have been seeking information, and
partly because my time has been oc-
cupied with national questions upon
which the entire country was acting;
but now that the issue is presented in
my state, 1 take my position. / shall
support the amendment. I shall ask
no political right for myself that l am
not willing to grant to my wife.
"As man and woma are co-tenants
| Of the earth and must work out their
| destiny together, the presumption is on
the side of equality Of treatment in all
that pertains to their joint life and its
opportunities. The burden of proof is
on those who claim for one al dVan-
tage over the other in determining the
conditions under which both shall live.
This claim has not been established in
the matter of suffrage. On the con
trary, the objections raised to woman
suffrage appear to be to be invalid,
while the arguments advanced in sup
port of the proposition, are in my
judgment, convincing.
"The first objection which / remem-
Der to nave heard was that as woman
cannot bear arms she should not have
a voice in deciding questions that
might lead to war, or in enacting laws
that might require an army for their
enforcement. This argument is seldom
offered now, for the reason that as
civilization advances laws are obeyed
because they are an expression of the
pubic opinion, not merely because
they ave power n lea behind
them. And as we look back over the
past, we may well wonCer whether
the peace movement would not havS
grown more rapidly than it has, haG

is to be under the final act may not
be decided for some weeks. The prov
ince may be wholly excluded or option
may be left to the separate counties
on a referendum vote to come under
the Dublin government or not; Or the
exclusion may be for a term of years,
the ultimate relation to be determined
in the future.
In his speech at the great demon
stration on Monday at Drumbeg, out
side of Belfast, Sir Edward Carson is
reported by cable as declaring that
unless the government is prepared to
leave us alone we will recognize the
provisional government and no other
one. If Ulster Is not excluded en-
tirely from home rule, IA dispatch
reports him as saying: THE govern
ment must come over and fight. Ul-
ster wants only justice, and If it does
not get it from the government, 1t will
take it for itself" He had received
authority to act, and Ulster men were
not going to give way.
This sounds rather like buster in
tended to affect the action of the Brit
ish parliament. The Irish rebellion
against William of Orange 225 years
ago was ended by the battle Of the
Boyne. 1t is not to be believed that at
this day there is to be an Ulster rebel
lion against George the Fifth to be
settled by any real fight.
